Description
- This application claims priority to co-pending U.S. Provisional Patent Application having Ser. No. 60/774,846 filed Feb. 17, 2006 entitled “Feng Shui hide-a-screen”, having a common applicant herewith.
- The disclosures made herein relate generally to screens and devices adapted to decoratively conceal a display monitor and, more particularly to a moveable screen or device adapted to decoratively conceal from view a wall mounted display monitor such as a television or computer monitor.
- Pronounced “fung shway”, Feng Shui has continued to become a popular influence on home design. The words Feng Shui in Chinese translate to “Wind and Water”. In Asia, it is popularly called Geomancy and a Feng Shui practitioner is known as a Geomancer. Geomancy encompass not only Feng Shui but also the various other Chinese divinity methods.
- The Chinese have long observed that some surroundings are better than others, and for centuries they have used geomancy to change surroundings to improve the quality of life. Feng Shui has been applied to enhance human well-being through the modification of layout and orientation of work-places and homes. The aim of Feng Shui is a complete harmony and a deep sensitivity with the natural order. Many aspects of Feng Shui are based on intuition (sixth sense) and commonsense. Feng shui is an ancient Asian interior design philosophy, which keeps the positive energy or “chi” flowing through your home. According to Feng Shui, if the energy in your home becomes blocked, it can affect your entire life in a negative way.
- Some common sense aspects of Feng Shui include choosing colors that are relaxing as well as removing or hiding items that could over-stimulate and draw attention. The practice of Feng Shui makes the environment more comfortable and even more enticing, aiding relaxation and ease.
- Therefore, a Feng Shui screen adapted for selectively concealing a wall mount display monitor would be useful and beneficial.
- Accordingly, embodiments of the inventive disclosures made herein comprise various embodiments of a Feng Shui screen configured and adapted for selectively and decoratively concealing a wall mount display monitor such as a television monitor or a computer monitor from view.
- In one or more embodiments of the inventive disclosures made herein, the Feng Shui screen for hiding a wall mounted display monitor includes a decorative frame such as a picture frame. An opaque screen is secured into the frame. The frame and screen are sized to conceal the monitor in the wall. At least one bracket is secured onto the wall in a location near the display monitor. The bracket or brackets slidably mount the frame to the wall such that the frame is operable on the bracket to slide between a first position covering and concealing the display monitor to a second position in which the front on the monitor is uncovered for viewing content such as commercial programming or images.
- In one or more embodiments of the inventive disclosures made herein, the opaque screen in the Feng Shui screen is a mirror for reflecting images and light.
- In one or more embodiments of the inventive disclosures made herein, the opaque screen in the Feng Shui screen is a piece of artwork such as a photograph, a painting, or an artistic print.
- In one or more embodiments of the inventive disclosures made herein, the Feng Shui screen includes an electric drive mechanism configured to mechanically move the Feng Shui frame and screen parallel to the wall between the viewing and concealing positions.
- In one or more embodiments of the inventive disclosures made herein, the Feng Shui screen includes a receiver module having control circuitry configured and adapted to command the movement of the electric drive mechanism. The receiver module is electrically interfaced to the drive mechanism to command movement of the drive mechanism and therefore move the Feng Shui. Also included is a wireless remote control unit. The remote control is adapted and configured to wirelessly command the receiver unit to selectively move the frame between the viewing and concealing positions.
- In one or more embodiments of the inventive disclosures made herein, the Feng Shui screen includes a remote control unit provided with functionality to replace the use of a television remote control such that all or nearly all media controls are integrated into one remote control unit.
- In one or more embodiments of the inventive disclosures made herein, the Feng Shui screen includes a wall mounted electrical switch interfaced to the drive unit. The wall mounted switch is selectively operable to command the drive unit to move the frame between the viewing and concealing positions.
- The bracket and Feng Shui screen may be arranged on a wall such that the Feng Shui screen exposes the display monitor by moving vertically, either up or down. Additionally, the Feng Shui screen may be arranged on a wall such that the Feng Shui screen exposes the display monitor by moving horizontally, for example to the left or right of the display monitor.
- These and other objects of the invention made herein will become readily apparent upon further review of the following specification and associated drawings.
- The drawings show a form of the invention that is presently preferred; however, the invention is not limited to the precise arrangement shown in the drawings.
