Abstract

Abstract A mounting or book for storing, displaying and handling transparencies having at least two sheet sets, each set containing at least one sheet which is pivotally mounted in the book in a manner so that any single sheet can be separately displayed or superimposed upon a single sheet of a further set. At least one carrier frame has a set of sheets hinged to it at one or both edges so that any sheet from a set can be pivoted toward the center of the carrier.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 205 words
A mounting device for displaying pictures in a random sequence, comprising: a first picture set holder including at least one transparent picture sheet having at least one picture for display, a first carrier member and first means pivotally mounting said at least one transparent picture sheet to one edge of said first carrier member; a second picture set holder for holding at least two pictures for display, said second picture set holder including at least two transparent picture sheets having at least one picture on each of said picture sheets for display, and a second carrier member, said first mounting means pivotally mounting said at least two transparent picture sheets to one edge of said second carrier member, for rotation about a common pivot axis through an angle of substantially 360° about said common pivot axis; and second means pivotally mounting said first and second carrier members to each other at their respective opposite edges from said one edge of each said carrier member for movement relative to a display area border of said first picture set holder such that any of said at least two picture sheets is selectively superimposable on said at least one transparent picture sheet of said first picture set holder.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 205 words
A mounting device for displaying pictures in a random sequence, comprising: a first picture set holder including at least one transparent picture sheet having at least one picture for display, a first carrier member and first means pivotally mounting said at least one transparent picture sheet to one edge of said first carrier member; a second picture set holder for holding at least two pictures for display, said second picture set holder including at least two transparent picture sheets having at least one picture on each of said picture sheets for display, and a second carrier member, said first mounting means pivotally mounting said at least two transparent picture sheets to one edge of said second carrier member, for rotation about a common pivot axis through an angle of substantially 360° about said common pivot axis; and second means pivotally mounting said first and second carrier members to each other at their respective opposite edges from said one edge of each said carrier member for movement relative to a display area border of said first picture set holder such that any of said at least two picture sheets is selectively superimposable on said at least one transparent picture sheet of said first picture set holder.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 166 words
A mounting device for diplaying pictures in a random sequence, comprising: a first picture set holder including at least one transparent picture sheet having at least one picture for display, and a base frame having a display area defining aperture; a second picture set holder for holding at least two pictures for display, said second picture set holder including at least two transparent picture sheets having at least one picture on each of said picture sheets for display, and at least one carrier frame; first means pivotally mounting said at least two picture sheets about a common pivot axis for rotation through an angle of substantially 360° about said common pivot axis; and second means pivotally mounting said at least one carrier frame, at a second edge thereof, to said base frame to permit the selective alignment of at least one of said transparent picture sheets of at least one picture set holder with said aperture for display of the selected at least one picture sheet.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 166 words
A mounting device for diplaying pictures in a random sequence, comprising: a first picture set holder including at least one transparent picture sheet having at least one picture for display, and a base frame having a display area defining aperture; a second picture set holder for holding at least two pictures for display, said second picture set holder including at least two transparent picture sheets having at least one picture on each of said picture sheets for display, and at least one carrier frame; first means pivotally mounting said at least two picture sheets about a common pivot axis for rotation through an angle of substantially 360° about said common pivot axis; and second means pivotally mounting said at least one carrier frame, at a second edge thereof, to said base frame to permit the selective alignment of at least one of said transparent picture sheets of at least one picture set holder with said aperture for display of the selected at least one picture sheet.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 23 words
A device according to claim 2, wherein said second edge of said at least one carrier frame is opposite said one edge thereof.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 20 words

Claim 7
Dependent Claim 69 words
A device according to claim 2, further comprising: a further carrier frame, including at least one further transparent picture sheet having a picture for display, pivotally mounted to one edge of said further carrier frame; and means pivotally mounting said further carrier frame, at a second edge thereof opposite said one edge thereof, to said one edge of said at least one carrier frame mounted to said base frame.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 14 words
A device according to claim 5, wherein said two carrier frames are releasably interconnected.
