Description
June 18, 1935 P. E. SPRINKEL COMBINED SHADE ROLLER AND CURTAIN ROD SUPPORT Filed Aug. 27, 1954 Patented June 18, 1935 g COMBINED SHADE ROLLER AND CURTAIN ROD SUPPORT I v Paul E. Sprinkel, Baltimore, Md.
Application August 27, 1934, Serial No. 741,678
. v 2 Claims.
This invention refers to window shade and curtain holdersand-m'ore particularly to a new and improved form of combination shade and curtain bracket to support the pintels of the 5 shade roller and a plurality of rods for holding curtains and draperies.
The object of this invention is to provide a bracket of this type that will be simple in construction and in one complete piece and having 10 the holes for securing the device spaced to permit an easy installation on a window frame. Another object is to have the bracket capable of being stamped out of one piece of metal and have a place for the pintels of the shade roller;
l5 places for end portions of the curtain rods and with arrangements for keeping them under spring tension and a frame with holes for the holding screws that are out of line of interference with the curtain rods and shade rollers when in place on the bracket.
The ordinary type of combination curtain and shade roller holder is made of several parts which require individual attention and have holes for the screws provided that make the insertion of them difficult and inconvenient. In this invention the device is a single bracket made of a single stamping and with the parts for curtain and shade roller spaced to permit non-interference with each other, and the holes for the holding screws arranged to permit convenient adjustment and placement of the brackets.
In the drawing which illustrates an embodiment of this invention:-
Figure 1 is a top plan view, in horizontal section through the sides of a window frame, showing my improved combination bracket with a shade roller and curtain rods mounted therein.
Figure 2 is a front elevation of the parts shown in Figure 1, with the curtain rods in section on the line 2-2 of Figure 1. I
Figure 3 is a perspective elevation of shade roller and curtain rods supporting member of the bracket.
Figure 4 is a sectional view of curtain rod supports along the line 44 of Figure 2.
Figure 5 is a perspective elevation of the shade roller and curtain rod supporting member of the bracket showing offset shade roller support.
/ Similar reference character refer to similar parts throughout the drawing.
The bracket consists of a right hand support I and left hand support 2 which are formed to face each other on opposing sides of a window frame in conventional manner. The right hand support is provided with an elongated central stem plate ll having arms or side extension'pieces l2 that are provided with tongues I3 stamped out on three sides and bent in as indicated at 3 on the drawing to engage with the end portions of curtain rods to securely hold same. The lower 5 portion of the stem plate has an extension member 14 arranged to receive the pintel of a shade roller 4 and hold same for rotation in the conventional manner. The upper'and lower end portions l5 and I6 respectively of the central stem plate are extended as shown and provided with holes ll for holding screws 18 and are located apart from the curtain and shade roller holders or members. The left hand support is also provided with an elongated central portion H and the extension pieces l2, tongues I3, and bent similarly to that of the right hand support I. The lower portion, however, is provided with a side extension member 24 on the side opposite to that on which the member I4 is shown for the right hand support I, and is arranged with a slot 25 to receive the flat pintel of the shade roller thus enabling its spring to act on the shade roller in the conventional manner. The extensions at the sides of the central stem are bent and formed 25 perpendicularly to the latter, and in such position are ready to receive the shade roller and curtain rods, the latter being held securely by the tongues Is as indicated.
The upper and lower portions l5 and I6 re- .30 spectively are provided with holes I! for holding screws l8.
The manner of placing the shade rollers 4 and. curtain rods 5 is not believed to require descripr tion and their adaption to the brackets appears obvious. 1
It can be noted that the curtain holders are spaced substantially from the shade rollers thus preventing any interference with each other, and the location of the holes I! for the holding screws l8 above and below the same enables them to be inserted, tightened or removed readily. The central stem plate provides a positive means of attachment which improves the appearance of the 45 bracket in each case and enables the two parts having different functions to be contained in the one article. The holding screws l8 are located conveniently and being located on the vertical central axis of the stem do not allow the holders to be twisted sidewise as is common with the double horizontal screw holding types. These latter types are hard to work on because they are so close to the holders and are covered by the roller and its pintels as well as by the curtain rods, and obstruct the tools usually required to manipulate their screws.
An offset 6 is provided for the shade roller support where required to suit the variations of difierent windows. All the other features of the bracket remain as described for supports I and 2.
While but one form of the invention is shown in the drawing, although in the modification indicated in Figure 5 the holding members are longer for especially large window frames or curtains and rollers, it is not desired to limit this application for patent to this particular type otherwise than limited by the prior art, as it is appreciated that other forms might be used that would employ the same principles and come within the scope of the appended claims.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed is:
1. In a device of the class described, a fiat bracket, uprightly disposed members thereon with sides substantially parallel and situated near the top portion of the bracket, said members being adapted to be embraced by the walls of the end portions of curtain rods, and a tongue stamped out of each member and bent to form a compressible hump and resiliently press against the side walls of the said end portions, the tongues being disposed with the open or loose ends towards the insertion direction of the rods and adapted to frictionally engage therewith relatively far up the same. 7 I
2. In a device of the class described, a flat bracket with holding screw-holes therein and uprightly disposed members thereon at the top portion of the bracket with sides parallel and aligned with each other and having tongues with humps thereon on one side of the members and the point or open end portion of the tongues projecting through to the other side of the members and facing the insertion direction of curtain rod end portions to be inserted thereon, said mem bers having relatively rectangular form.
