AG. A. CARLSQN CURTAIN ROD Fil-ed March A5. 1923 Patented Sept. 16, 1924.
UNITED STAT-Es PATENTLOFEICE.-
GUSTAF A. CARLSON, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, ASSIGNOR TOV THE BOYE NEEDLE COM- PANY, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, A CORPORATION 0F ILLINOIS.
CURTAIN non.
Application led March 5, 1923. Serial No. 622,868.
T0 all whom t may concern.'
Be it known that I, GUsTAr A. CARLSON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented new and useful Improvements in Curtain Rods, of which the following is a specification.
The present invention relates to curtainrods adapted to 'be applied either to a window-frame or to a sash; and the primary object is to provide a. very simple and cheap curtain-rod which is well adapted to its pur` pose and which can be applied to a windowframe or sash-frame with great facility.
The invention is illustrated in its preferred embodiment in` the accompanying drawing, in which#- Fig. l represents a broken plan sectional view of a window-frame with the improved curtain-rod applied thereto, the curtain-rod being shown brokenly; Fig. 2, a broken hori- Zontal sectional View showing the attachment with the frame made in a slightly different manner; Fig. 3, a similar section showing the. curtain-rod attached to the frame within the opening of the frame; Fig. 4, a broken sectional view taken as indicated at line 4 of Fig. 2; Fig. 5, an enlarged broken sectional view illustrating the manner in which the wire-rod endsections are connected with the intermediate coiled wire section; Fig. 6, a broken perspective view showing the hooked outer extremity of one of the wire-rod sections; and Fig. 7, a view partly in section, showing the shank of the wire-rod section lengthened to provide for greater adjustment. f
In the construction illustrated, A represents a Window-frame; and B represents the improved curtain-rod applied thereto.
The curtain-rod B comprisesan intermediate coiled wire section l, a pair of wirerod end-sections 2 adj ustably connected with the section l, and clamping sleeves 3 which serve to secure the members 2 to the mem-V ber l.
The end-sections 2 are provided with means for attaching them to a frame, such Ias a window-frame or sash-frame. In the form illustrated, each member 2 has its Outer end provided with a hook 2a. The member 2 is also provided with a shank 2b, which extends into the end-portion of the coiled wire section l and is provided within the coiled member with a crimp or bend 2". The. sleeve 3 is adapted to slip over the coiled wire member and clamp the coiled member upon the crimped portion of the shank. Because of the cramped engagement, any stretching force exerted will cause the members to be gripped together the more tightly. However, it is possible to force the sleeve 1away from the gripping position, so that the shank can be. adjusted within the coiled member.
It will be understood that by reason of the great resiliency of the coiled wire member, the member m-ay be stretched a considerable distance so as to span an openin greater than the length of the curtain-ro If the curtain-rod is to be applied to an opening of less width, the end-portions of the coiled wire member may be cut olf as much as may be necessary.
A slight modification providing forl greater adjustment without the necessity of cutting off the ends of the coiled wire mem-y ber is shown in Fig. 7. In this case, the wire-rod member is designated 2d. The shank of the member is considerably lengthened; otherwise, the construction is the same as already described, and the parts are similarly lettered.
The curtain-rod may be applied to the window-frame by engaging the facing strips l, the hooksr engaging the remote edges of said strips; or the hooks m-ay be connected with screw-eyes 5, attached tothe frame either in the manner shown in Fig. 2
or'tlie manner shown in Fig. 3.
The improved device is extremely simple, may be manufactured cheaply, and may be applied with great facility. The improved device. renders unnecessary the use of brackets for attaching the rod to the` windowsframe or sash-frame.
The foregoing detailed description has been given for clearness of understanding, and no unnecessary limitations should be understood therefrom.
What I regard as new and desire to secure 5 by Letters Patent, is:
A cnrta-infrodV comprising a coiled Wire section, a Wire-rod section having one end provided with means for attachment tov a frame and having the other end crimped and extending` into the coiled Wire section, and a sleeve embracing the coiled Wire section at the portion thereof Which embraces the crimped end portion of the Wire rod and clamping saidV sections together.
