  • 2. Description of Related Art
  • A conventional flat screen panel is used in conjunction with computers, televisions, digital photo frames or such like and has a flat screen panel and a frame. The flat screen panel is rectangular and increases in size in two-inch increments from 11 inches across the diagonal. The conventional frame is mounted around the flat panel display, and made of plastic by jet molding. Therefore, each size of the plat screen panel requires a distinct mold to manufacture the corresponding frame which increases the cost of manufacture and prevents development of non-standard sizes, nor can the plastic frame cannot be recycled easily.
  • Another conventional frame is extruded aluminum and has four moldings, multiple tenon plates and multiple fasteners. The moldings are connected to each other to form a rectangle and each molding has an external surface. The tenon plates are mounted on the external surfaces of the moldings by fasteners.
  • However, the conventional aluminum frame has the following shortcomings.
  • 1. The tenon plates cannot be mounted securely on the external surface of the moldings causing the conventional aluminum outer fame to deform easily.
  • 2. The tenon plates are designed specifically for each corresponding size of molding. Therefore, frames for flat screen panels of different dimensions are expensive to produce.
  • 3. Components of the conventional frame are hard to assemble.
  • Therefore, the present invention provides a frame to mitigate or obviate the aforementioned problems.
  • SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
  • The main objective of the present invention is to provide a frame for a flat panel display.
  • The frame for a flat panel display has four moldings and four bracket assemblies. The moldings are connected to each other to form a quadrangle and each molding has a fascia, two side edges and a mortise. The bracket assemblies are inserted into and connected securely to two adjacent moldings Therefore, the moldings can be altered easily so the frame can be easily manufactured to fit around any dimension of flat screen panel. Furthermore, the bracket assemblies hold the moldings securely to prevent deformation.
