ABSTRACT:
The license plate cover prevents viewing of the license plate identifying numbers and symbols from the sides of the plate, but does not prevent viewing thereof from directly in line with the plate. The cover includes a frame adapted to overlie the plate and defining a central opening through which the plate numbers can be seen. To the frame are connected a number of spaced vanes which project outwardly thereof and obscure side viewing of the plate numbers. For this purpose, it is preferred to have the vanes parallel with each other and running from the top to the bottom of the frame across the opening, and perpendicular to the main plane of the frame. The vanes can be opaque or transparent. In the latter case, the collective effect of side viewing through the array of vanes is to obscure such viewing. The vanes can be unitary and integral with the frame or pivotally connected thereto for moving between an open position and closed position, the latter overlying the plate identification indicia, to protect the plate under special circumstances. The cover can include a slide bar to move the vanes, retainers to hold the vanes in open and closed positions and one or more spring-biased clips or the like to releasably connect the cover over the license plate. The sides of the vanes can bear symbols and the like for decorative and other purposes.
