JOSEPH A. DURNLAUGII, on STEELTON, PENNSYLVANIA, AssIeNon To A. B. DUNKLE, or SAME PLACE.
ADJUSTABLE WlNDOW-SHADE HOLDER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 443,178, dated December 28,1890. Application filed December 30, 1889. Renewed November 18, 1890- Serial No. 371 ,78 7. (No model) curtain fixtures and brackets.
The object of the present invention is to provide an adjustable frame of simple and inexpensive construction, adapted to receive a curtain-stick of the ordinary construction, and also a bar for lace curtains, lambrequins, and the like.
The invention consists in the construction and novel combination and arrangement of parts hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings, and pointed out in the claims hereto appended.
1n the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of a frame embodying the invention. Fig. 2 is an end elevation. Fig. 3 is a similar view of the opposite end of the frame. Fig. 4: is a side elevation. V
Referring to the accompanying drawings, 1 and 2 designate sections of a frame which is adjustable and is adapted to be increased or diminished in length to suit various-sized windows. The sections are composed of side bars 3 and 4, those of the section 1 terminating in loops 5, formed by bending the bars upon themselves. The other sidebars at slide in the loops 5 and have their ends terminating in loops 6, that receive the side bars 3 of the section 1, and the loops 5 are formed by bending the wire of the frame, which is continuous at this end of the section and forms a cross-bar 7-, that connects the two loops 5 and braces the frame at this point. The upper cross bars of the sections 1 and 2 are providedwith eyes 8, that are adapted to receive screws or similar means for securing the frame toa window. Both sides of the frame may be provided with eyes similar to those already described, and their number may be increased, in order to fasten the frame more securely; and I desire it to be understood that I do not limit myself to the precise details of construction herein shown and described, as I may,
without departing from the spirit of the invention, make minor changes therein. At the farther ends of the sections the wire is bent at right angles to form the brackets to receive the curtain-stick and to provide rings 9, in which to secure a bar to hold lace curtains, lambrequins, or the like. The section 2 has the wire of the upper side bar extending out horizontally therefrom and formed into a ring 9, from which it extends down to the lower side bar, and between the ring and the lower side bar is formed an eye 10 to receive the cylindrical journal at one end of a curtain-stick. The Wire at the end of the other section is first formed into a vertical loop 11, whose sides are parallel and adapted to engage the square journal of a spring-actuated curtain-stick, and the wire leaves the upper end of the loop and is bent upon itself to form a guard 9 and a ring 9, and the end 12 of the wire is secured to the lower side bar of the sections near the end thereof. The wire of this lower side bar is bent at right angles thereto and forms a crossbar 13 at this end of the frame, and the end 14 of the crossbar is secured to the upper side bar. The construction of the loop 11 and ring 9 is such that the wire forms a spring, which forces the sides of the loop in contact with the square journal of a curtain-stick.
From the foregoing it will readily be seen that the frame is simple and inexpensive in construction, adapted to be adjusted to suit varioussized windows, and is capable of receiving the ordinary cu rtain-stick and the bar for supporting lace curtains, lambrequins, and the like. l j
I am aware that it is old to construct an adjustable windowshade strip; but I am not aware that such adjustable strips have ever been made of wire bent and coiled in the manner shown to form two adjustable sections sliding one upon the other.
The purpose of the guard 9, which closes over the upper end of the loop 11, is to prevent the end of the shade-roller from jumping out of place by a sudden pull.
I-Iav ng described my invention, what I claim 1s- 1. A curtain fixture consisting of the wire frame composed of adjustable sections, each having parallel side Wires provided at their inner ends with loops to receive the side Wires of the adjacent section, said sections being provided at their outer ends with rings 9 and curtain-brackets, substantially as and for the purpose described.
2. A curtain-fixture consisting of the Wire frame provided with eyes 8, and comprising the sliding sections, each composed of parallel side Wires provided at their inner ends with loops to receive the side Wires of the adjacent section and having their outer ends bent at right angles and provided with rings 9, one of the sections having an eye 10 and the other having a vertical loop 11, substantially as and for the purpose described.
3. A curtain-fixtu re or shade-holder formed entirely oflwire and consisting, essentially, of two sections sliding one upon the other, each section being composed of side wires with eyes at the ends to slide upon the side Wires of each section, the curtain-roller brackets being formed of angular extensions of the side Wires and provided with eye 10 for one end of the curtain-roller and the vertical loop 11 for the other end, and a guard 9, bent back over the top of the loop, as set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I have hereto affixed my signature in presence of two witnesses.
JOSEPH A. DURNBAUGII.
