ABSTRACT:
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a photo frame, and more particularly to a photo frame with mini-fan having a battery case as a support.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
A photo frame is used as a means for exhibit photograph(s). Many people like to place a photograph in a frame which is put on a suitable place, for example a table for viewing. Typically, a photo frame is a rectangular or square form having an opening formed therein for receiving photograph(s), and preferably a collapsible stand for supporting frame. Generally, in view of all commercially available photo frames, the only difference between different photo frames is their appearance. In other words, the only purpose of photo frame is, as stated above, for exhibit photograph(s) among various designs. Thus, it is desirable to see a photo frame with functions more than above.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
It is therefore an object of the present invention to provided a photo frame with a mini-fan for providing an additional cooling capability having a battery case serving as a supporting means. The advantages of the present invention are realized by providing a photo frame comprising a frame, a mini-fan pivotably mounted on a side of frame, and a battery case pivotably mounted on a position abutted against an opposite side of frame for providing power to the mini-fan and supporting frame so as to enable to pivotably adjust the mini-fan and battery case in response to a vertically or horizontally standing photo frame. This further eliminates a support component as generally required by a conventional photo frame.
