Material Sheet Frictional Securing Assembly
An assembly facilitating the ability to frictionally secure a sheet of material to a surface or to cover an opening defined by any type of frame, comprising a Base Piece (12) which can be secured to any desired frame or surface and a Clamp Arm (13) that are two separate parts, but connected to each other via a Clamp Ball (17b) and Clamp Joint (17a) allowing the Clamp Arm (13) radial motion so that it may rotate to an up (open) position allowing insertion of a Material Sheet (11) between the two parts then rotate to a down (secured) position by using any standard flat-headed tool to apply a radial force against the Lock Ridge (19) on the Clamp Arm (13), frictionally securing the Material Sheet (11) in between the Base Piece (12) and the Clamp Arm (13). Excess length of the Material Sheet (11) is forced into the Material Cavity (20) and hidden, avoiding the need for the Material Sheet (11) to be cut or trimmed to the exact smallest size required to cover the desired area, giving the edges of the Material Sheet (11) a straight and clean look, and pulling the Material Sheet (11) taut. By using any standard flat-headed tool to apply a radial force in the opposite direction of the Lock Ridge (19), the Clamp Arm (13) is dislodged allowing removal of the Material Sheet (11), also allowing for easy uninstallation or re-installation of the Material Sheet (11) if desired or should it become dislodged from the exertion of excessive external force.
