ATTORNEY Patented Feb. 2, 1943 UNETE STATES CURTAIN AND DRAPERY HANGER FR WINDOWS 2 Claims.
This invention relates to curtain and drapery hangers for windows.
An object of this invention is to provide a curtain and drapery hanger of the character described, which shall be relatively easy to mount on a window and simple to adjust as to height and width, and in which the curtain rod may be mounted at a `different height from the drapery rod.
Another object of this invention is to provide a strong and durable hanger of the character described, which shall be relatively inexpensive to manufacture, attractive in appearance, and yet practical and eicient to a high degree in use.
Other objects of this invention will in part be obvious and in part hereinafter pointed out.
The invention accordingly Vconsists in the features of construction, combinations of elements, and arrangement of parts which will be exemplified in the construction hereinafter described, and of which the scope of application will be indicated in the following claims.
In the accompanying drawing, in which is shown various possible illustrative embodiments of this invention,
Fig. l is a front elevational view of the upper portion of a window frame provided with drapery and curtain hangers embodying the invention;
Fig. 2 is a top plan View of the structure shown in Fig. l;
Fig. 3 is an enlarged cross-sectional view taken on line 3 3 of Fig. 2;
Fig. 4 is an enlarged cross-sectional View taken on line 4--13 of Fig. 2;
Fig. 5 is a view similar to Fig. 2, but illustrating a modiiied construction.
Referring now in detail to the drawing, I designates a window frame provided with drapery and curtain hangers I2 embodying the invention. The window frame has side portions I3 and a top portion I. The side portions I3 of the Window frame have outer surfaces Ilia and the top portion I4 has a top surface Ilia.
Fixed to the upper corners of the window frame I, are a pair of similar, symmetrically disposed brackets 20. Each bracket 29 has a vertical wall 2I contacting the outer surface Ita of one of the window frame portions I3, and formed with an opening for a screw 2lb adapted to be screwed into the window frame. Extending at right angles to portion 2l is a portion 22 contacting the top surface Illa of the Window frame portion I4.
On portions 2I and 22 are prongs 2Ia and 22a,
respectively, adapted to dig into the window frame to help hold the bracket on the frame.
Extending from wall 2|, at right angles to the walls ZI and 22, is a wall 25 formed with a pair of vertical rows of spaced key openings 28. Mounted on the brackets 20 is a curtain rod 29 and a drapery or portiere rod Sil. The curtain rod 29 may be in the form of a two part extensible curtain rod of any construction. The parts 29a each have a rearwardly extending foot 33 formed with a rearwardly extending horizontal stem or neck 34 formed with a head or ball 35. The heads 35 are passed through the enlarged portions of the key openings to permit the curtain rod 29 to be slidably moved downwardly to engage th-e necks 3f! within the narrow portions of the key openings.
The drapery or portiere rod 38 is likewise a two part extensible member, and each part 30a has a rearwardly extending foot 36 formed with a rearwardly extending horizontal stem or neck 3l provided with a knob, ball or head 35 at its rear end. The portiere or drapery rod 30 is mounted on the brackets 2! in the same manner as the curtain rod.
It will be noted, however, that the rod 39 is mounted in the outer row of key slots 28, Whereas, the curtain rod 29 is mounted on the inner row of key slots. The rods may be mounted in any desired adjusted height.
In Fig. 5 there is shown a bracket 20a, illustrating a modied form of the invention. The bracket 20a diifers from the bracket 20 in that the wall 26a formed with key slots extends inwardly instead of outwardly and is spaced in front of the window frame as shown in Fig. 5 of the drawing. Furthermore, the curtain and drapery rods may be formed with collars 40, adjacent the stems 34 and adapted to contact the front faces of bracket walls 26a.
It will thus be seen that there is provided a device in which the several objects of this invention are achieved, and which is well adapted to meet the conditions of practical use.
As various possible embodiments might be made of the above invention, and as various changes might be made in the embodiments above set forth, it is to be understood that all matter herein set forth or shown in the accompanying drawing is to be interpreted as illustrative and not in a limiting sense.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent:
1. A structurally integral, one-piece bracket of the character described comprising a wall having a prong, a second wall of less Width than the first wall extending from the upper edge of and adjacent the rear portion of the latter and at right angles to the first wall, said second wall also having a prong, both of said Walls having openings to receive fastening elements to fasten the bracket to a Window frame, said bracket further comprising a third wall extending from the forward edge of the rst wall and at right angles to the rst and second walls, said third Wall having a plurality of spaced, vertical rows of spaced key slots adapted to be selectively engaged by curtain rods, said third wall extending in the same direction from the rst wall as the second wall and being spaced forwardly of the latter.
2. A structurally integral, one-piece bracket of the character described, comprising a wall having a prong, a second wall of less width than the rst wall extending from the upper edge of and adjacent the rear portion of the latter and at right angles to the first wall, said second wall also having a prong, both of said Walls having openings to receive fastening elements to fasten the bracket to a window frame, said bracket further comprising a third Wall extending from the forward edge of the first wall and at right angles to the rst and second walls, said third wall having a plurality of vertical rows of spaced key slots adapted to be selectively engaged by curtain rods, said third wall being spaced forwardly of the second wall.
GEORGE B. YERTON.
