Such simple structure can only provide sun-shading function while failing to resist wind or rain 30 that it is apt to be swung by the wind to collide the window and the dust and rain will aIl enter the house. Moreover, such collision often cause the damage of the slats and the window. ~herefore, such blind is unsatisfactory to the user.

SummarL of the Invention It is therefore a primary object of this invention to provide a burglarproof and wind/rain-resistant assembled blind which can effectively insolate the wind and rain.
It is a further object of this invention to provide the above a~smebled blind which can be extensively adjusted and can be assembled by the user.

~a ~t..~s According to the above ohjects, the pre~ent invention includes a fixed guide rail two sides of which are respectively disposed with dove-tail rails, and arch support bases formed with corresponding dove-tail lugs.
Ihe support bases are fitted on the fixed guide rail side by side and a bearing is formed on the support base for a lower connector of a slat to inAert therein. A
shaft rod of a connector extends downward to engage wlth a gear meshing with an inner coil rod of the support base, whereby an adjusting rod can be rotated to adjust the angle of the slats, two ends of the support base are formed with an outer step and an inner step the width of which is equal to that of L-shaped flaps disposed on two sides of each slat. Ihe width of the inner and outer steps and the flaps is adjustable to suit various dimensions of different windows.
