GEORGE \V. OONKLIN, OF ARLINGTON, NEXV JERSEY, ASSIGNOR, BY MESNE ASSIGNMENTS, TO THE FLOS SHADE ROLLER COMPANY.
SHADE-ROLLER BRACKET.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 454,568, dated J une 23, 1891. Application filed June 5, 1890. Serial No. 354,368. (No niodel.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Beit known that I, GEORGE W. C ONKLIN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Arlington, Hudson county, New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Shade-Roller Brackets, fully described and represented in the following speciiication and the accompanyingdrawingsjornr ing a part of the same.
The object of this invention is to furnish a cheap and simple construction for shaderoller brackets.
In the annexed drawings, Figure 1 is an elevation of a shade-roller, with a portion of the window-frame adjacent thereto in sectron. Fig. 2 is a top view. Fig. 3 is a perspective view. Fig.4is an elevation from the inside of one of the brackets shown in Fig. 1, and Fig. 5 is a view similar to Fig. 4: of the other bracket shown in Fig. 1.
cis an ordinary spring-shade roller provided with rotating spindle b and stationary spindle d, having a flattedliead, as usual.
The body a of the bracket is provided with a round hole 0 for the rotating spindle or an open slot 8 for the flatted head of the stationary spindle, and such body is provided at its two opposite edges with tangs t, bent at right angles to the body.
The bracket is very readily secured to and removed from the wood of a window-frame, as the use of two tangs enables me to form the bracket of very thin sheet metal, which forms a scarcely-perceptible slit when driven into the wood. The sides of the tangs are preferably sloped from the base to the point, so as to release them quickly from the wood when they are partly drawn out.
A brace r is shown formed upon the under side of each tang to regulate the penetration of the tang into the wood, and serrations 0" may be formed upon the upper side of the tang and upon the edge of the brace adjacent to the wood. Such serrations indentthe wood in contact with the tang and brace, and thereby prevent the slipping of such parts.
The brackets are driven into the wood in a suitable position to receive the spindles of the shade-roller, and the weight of the roller when applied to such brackets, as shown in. Fig. 1, tends to rotate the tang 2 about the end of the brace 'r as a fulcrum, and thus presses the serrated point of the tang upward and the serrated face of the tang downward. As
the serrations grip the wood all movement is prevented under any load which the shaderoller can impose.
The bracket is readily loosened to withdraw the tangs from the wood by knockingit slightly upward by a blow upon the under side, which withdraws the brace from the window-frame and the serrations upon the point of the tang from contact with the Wood, after which the brace can be readily pulled out by the fingers, leaving such minute aperturesin the wood that a coat of paint will readily close them up. This form of bracket therefore presents particular advantages, as it is frequently necessary to remove or shift the brackets in repairing a house or altering the arrange- 7o ment of the window-shades.
The bracket may be readily driven into the wood to a suitable depth without possessing the braces 1', and as the particular advantage of my invention results from the use of the double tangs, which enable me to use very thin sheet metal, I do not limit myself strictly to the use of the bracerand the serrations.
hat I claim herein is 1. The roller-bracket formed in one piece of sheet metal and consisting in the body a, provided with suitable aperture for the rollerspindle, and with two tangs t at right angles to the body at its opposite sides, substantially as herein set forth.
The roller-bracket formed of a single piece of sheet metal and provided with two tangs at right angles to the body, the tangs being wedge shaped with level tops and sloped'upon their under sides and provided at their bases with the braces r atan obtuse angle with the under sides of the tang, and the tan gs and braces being provided with serrations, as and for the purpose set forth.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
GEORGE \V. OONKLIN.
