ABSTRACT:
A screen assembly that includes a screen material which is bonded to a thin metal substrate. The substrate is typically a solid 1/16 inch thick sheet of aluminum that is both light weight and strong. The bonded screen/substrate subassembly is mounted to an flip panel frame which is pivotally connected to an outer frame. To increase the rigidity of the substrate, the edges of the screen subassembly are located within a channel of the flip panel frame and held in place by a flexible foam cord that is pressed between the subassembly and the frame. The outer frame is pivotally connected to a stationary frame that is mounted to a structure, such as the wall of an aircraft passenger compartment. To display images on the screen, the outer frame is rotated away from the wall and the flip panel frame is flipped around to expose the screen to the passenger compartment.
