UNITED STATES 1,493.05? PATENT O'FFi-CE;
ROBERT E. VAN PATTEN, or HILLsnA-LE; MICHIGAN.
CURTAIN-HANGING MEANS.
Application filed October 15, 1923. Serial No. 668,637.
T all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I. RoBER'r E. VAN PAT- TEN. a citizen of the United States, residing at Hillsdale. in the county of Hillsdale and State of Michigan, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Curtain- Hanging Means, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings.
This invention relatesto curtain hanging means and it is an object of the invention to provide novel and improved means of this character whereby a curtain may be readily and conveniently supported or hung in desired position and in a manner whereby the curtain may be conveniently moved into open or closed position.
Another object of the invention is to provide means of this general character embodying a novel and improved ring having associated therewith means for effectively clamping the curtain thereto yet permitting the ready removal or application of the curtain as desired.
The invention consists in the details of construction and in the combination and arrangement of the several parts of my im proved curtain hanging means whereby certain important advantages are attained and the device rendered simpler, less expensive and otherwise more convenient and advantageous for use, as will be hereinafter more fully setforth.
The novel features of my invention will hereinafter be definitely claimed.
In order that my invention may be the better understood. I will now proceed to describe the same with. reference to the accomp-anying drawings wherein Figure 1 is a view in perspective illustrating curtains hung or supported in accordance with an embodiment of my invention; Figure 2 is an enlarged transverse sectional view illustrating in detail a ring and the clamping means associated therewith;
Figure 3 is a sectional view taken substantially on the line 33 of Figure 2;
Figure 4: is a view in perspective of a ring unapplied;
Figure 5 is an elevational view of the clamping member for coaction with the ring as illustrated in Figure 4;
Figure 6 is a fragmentary view in perspective illustrating a guide member as herein embodied.
As disclosed in the accompanying drawings, 1 denotes a curtain rod adapted tobe supported-in working position in any desired manner and which preferably has its longitudinal marginal portions returned to provide the flanges 2. The rod 1 is preferably of the type disclosed in my pending application Serial No. 650.890 filed J uly- 11,1923.
Slidably mounted upon the rod 1 is a plurality of rings 3. each of said rings being substantially elliptical in form and having the bar thereof of channel formation in cross section with the open face thereof outwardly disposed whereby the periphery of the ring has disposed entirely therearound a groove or 'channel i.
Associated with each of the rings 3 is a clamping member 5 substantially U-shaped in form and possessing a certain degree of inherent resiliency whereby the same may be readily engaged over a ring 3 and in a manner to effectively hold or clamp a portion of a curtain C to said ring. The intermediate portion of the member 5 is defined by an outstanding loop or extension 6 to provide means to facilitate the application or removal of the member 5 while the free extremities of the side arms of said member are provided with the converging extensions 7 continued by the outwardly disposed extensions 8. The extensions 7 facilitate the clamping action of the member 5 while the extensions- 8 serve to facilitate the application of the member 5 in working position upon the ring 3.
Threaded through the rings 3 are the flexible members or cords 9, said cords being also disposed through a guide member or hook 10 positioned adiacent each end of the rod 1. her or hook 10 is formed of a single strand of material with its shank inwardly and downwardly offset, as at 11. (Figure 6) to engage between the body of the rod 1 and the lower flange 2, said shankbeing of such length as to have its outer end engageable between the body one and the upper flange 2.
One of the flexible members or cords 9 is suitably secured, as at 12. to the ring 3 adjacent the inner end of one of the curtains while the second member or cord 9 is suitably connected to the inner ring of a second curtain and when the curtains are in closed position as illustrated in Figure l, a depending end of each of the members or cords As herein disclosed each guide memdesired to move one or both of said curtains into closed posit-ion.
From the foregoing description it is thought to be obvious that a curtain hanging means constructed in accordance with my invention is particularly well adapted for use by reason of the convenience and facility with which it may be assembled and operated, and it will also be obvious that my invention is susceptible of some change and modification without departing from the principles and spirit thereof and for this reason I do not wish to be understood as limiting myself to the precise arrangement and formation of the several parts herein shown in carrying out my inviention in practice except as hereinafter claimed.
I claim:
As a new article of manufacture, a curtain ring, the periphery of said ring being provided therearound with a groove, and a substantially U-shaped clamping member adapted. to engage within the groove of the ring, the extremities of the clamping member being provided with inwardly disposed extensions continued by outwardly directed extensions.
In testimony whereof I hereunto affix my signature.
ROBERT E. VAN PATTEN.
