WINDOWf-SHADE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 733,996, dated my 21, 1909i. 7 Application filed April 28,1903. Serial No. 154,663. (No model.) 7
To all whom it may concern: r
Be it known that I, MICHAEL E. RElLLvga citizen of the United States, residing at Tacoma, in the county of Pierce and State of Washington, have invented a new and useful Window-Shade, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to window shades which are divided into sections, and more particularly is an improvement of my Patent N 0. 715,294, issued December 9, 1902, and has for its object the reduction of the shaded area when the curtain is in its closed or contracted position. I attain this object by the device illustrated in the accompanying drawings,.in which Figure 1 is a front View of a window equipped with my shade, showing the shade extended to cover the window. Fig. 2 is a similar view showing the shade contracted or closed and lowered slightly from the top to shade only a certain portion of the window. Fig. 3 is a detail of the link- Fig. 4 is a perspective View of the shade in its closed position, the parts thereof being separated for greater clearness. Fig. 5 is a detail of a modified form of hanging my shade. Similar letters of reference refer to similar parts throughout the several views. 7
My improved shade consists of three similar parts, (marked, respectively, A, B, and C.) The partsA and O are connected by the cord D, passing through the loop E of the linkpiece F. The length of the cord D is practically twice the vertical length of either of the parts A or C. Thepart B, of. substantially the same dimensions as the parts A and O, hangs between the parts A and O by the cord G. This cord is about one-half as long as the cord D, and I prefer to attach itsupper end to the loop H of the link F. It will be seen that the part B does not move relatively to the link F, but moves with it when that link is moved. It will be also understood that between the link F and the upper edge of B is an open space substantially as long vertically as the part B. This open space is closed by either the part A or 0 when the shade is extended to cover the window.
The link F, I prefer to construct with two loops E and H. The lower loop E sustains the cord D, holding the parts A and C, but
allows the cord free motion through it. The upper loop H has the cord G fastened to it, aswell as the main cord I, which holds the entire curtain. The cord I passes through the hanger J, secured to the window-casing, the hanger K, secured near the upper corner of the casing, and down the side of the casing through a keeper L, to which it may be secured. -Keeper L maybe placed in any con-' venientjposition. Hanger J must be large enough, to allow the link F to pass through it freely.
In Fig. 5 the hanging arrangements are practically duplicated, one being at each end of the shade parts A, B, and O. The hangers J are placed over each end of the curtain instead of a single one over the center, and the cords I pass together through the hanger K and the keeper L and may be fastened together at any suitable-point.
My improved shade, it will thus be seen, need shade only one-third of the window area when drawn up, whereas my former curtain always shaded at least one-half thereof. The whole shade when contracted or closed, as in Fig. 2, may be placed to cover any portion of the window by raising or lowering the link F by means of the cord I.
What I claim, and desire to secure by. Letters Patent, is-
1. In a sectional window-shade, the combination with a cord for raising and lowering all the sections thereof together, of alink secured to said cord, of a hanging cord secured to said link, of a section of said shade immovably secured to said link by means of said hanging cord, of a pairof sections of said shade, and of a movable cord passing freely through said link and having one of said pair of sections at each end whereby said sections are adj ustably and complementarily supported bysaid link.
2. A sectional shade composed of a section immovably hung from a link and a pair ofvertically-slidable sections adj ustably and complementarily hung from said link.
3. A sectional shade composed of a section immovably hung from a link at a distance therefrom of substantially the vertical length ofsaid section,and a pair of vertically-slidable sectionshung from said link at the ends of a cord of substantially twice the vertical length of said section.

4. A sectional window-shade composed of In testimony whereof I have signed my three sections each of a vertical length subname to this specification in the presence of IO stantially one-third of the vertical length of two subscribing witnesses. the window means for raisin and lowerin" 1 said sections, together and l eans for verti MICHAEL REILLY cally sliding the members of one pair of said Witnesses:
sections respectively above and below the W. H. GRATTAN, third section. M. BUDINIOH.
