Abstract (en)
[origin: WO9726640A1] A modular sign comprises a magnetic backing sheet, a chassis for supporting the backing sheet to provide a stable platform, and one or more sign inserts which may be coated on one side with a ferrous material so that the inserts can be held magnetically on the backing sheet. The magnetic backing sheet may include alignment ribs for aligning the various sign inserts on the backing sheet or it may be in the form of a frame with a single sign insert registered within the frame. The chassis can be supported in a frame which is made up of extruded frame members which can be connected in the manner of a picture frame. The frame members may be made with various slots or channels to retain various parts of the sign and/or to assist in mounting the frame against a horizontal or vertical surface. A light transmitting protective sheet may cover the sign. Where non-ferrous sign inserts are used, the perimeter of the inner surface of the protective sheet may be coated with a magnetically attractive material to retain the sign insert within the frame of magnetic material.
