Definitions

  • the invention relates to an adjustable curtain for covering windows, walls and / or for dividing rooms, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such curtains are known.
  • US Pat. No. 3,982,581 shows a curtain which is composed of several sections arranged side by side.
  • the individual sections can consist of a fabric which differs from the adjacent sections with regard to light transmission and / or color.
  • the sections are suspended from an adjustment device.
  • the adjusting device consists of cuboidal bodies arranged in series one behind the other, which are mounted in a rail so as to be pivotable about a vertical axis by 90 °.
  • the sections are attached to the vertical surfaces of the cuboid bodies lying in one plane.
  • a section extends over two parallelepiped-shaped bodies arranged next to one another.
  • the cuboidal bodies which are connected to one another in pairs by the corresponding section can now be pivoted relative to one another by 90 °.
  • the section mentioned comes to lie in the intermediate space which is formed by the vertical surfaces of the cuboid bodies, which are now parallel and facing one another.
  • the section is folded.
  • one or the other sections form the curtain surface visible to the viewer.
  • the one section can have, for example, a different light transmission with respect to the other sections, or they can be of a different color, so that a different effect is achieved for the viewer depending on the position of the pivotable cuboid bodies.
  • This described device has the disadvantage that the large number of cuboid bodies arranged one behind the other, with their storage and the pivoting mechanism, is very complex, requires many individual parts and is therefore expensive to manufacture. Furthermore, it is not possible with this adjustment mechanism to push the curtain to one side, for example.
  • the object of the invention is now to create a curtain of the type mentioned, with which the effects of different light transmission and / or color can be achieved, the adjustment mechanism having a simple structure, in which instead of fabric-shaped sections also other, lamella-like sections from others Materials can be used and that the curtain can be pushed to one side.
  • the object is achieved by the features specified in the characterizing part of claim 1.
  • the holding member arranged between two fixed holding members is displaceable enables the curtain to be adjusted. Since four sections are arranged between two fixed holding members, the first section and the fourth section each being held on the outside by the corresponding fixable holding member, while the displaceable holding member is arranged between the second and third sections, can be moved by moving the displaceable holding member fold the sections arranged on one side of this holding member against each other until they lie one on top of the other, while the two sections arranged on the other side are stretched and form the actual curtain surface.
  • the two folded sections protrude essentially at right angles from the curtain surface formed by the other two sections.
  • the curtain can be moved to bright, i.e. by moving the displaceable holding member. translucent, or on dark, i.e. opaque.
  • the first holding member which is arranged on the edge of the curtain, is advantageously held in the guide rail in the starting position of the curtain.
  • the first held by this Retaining member are pulled out of the curtain over the length of the guide rail, but it can also be pulled back against this first holding member, which completely releases the window, for example, behind the curtain.
  • the curtain is drawn in and out advantageously via an infinite flexible pulling element, for example a cord, which is guided around a deflection roller which is attached to the end of the guide rail which lies opposite the holding element held in place.
  • a further advantageous embodiment of the invention is that the fixable holding members are fixed in that they are connected to one another via a flexible element, for example a cord, so that when the curtain is pulled out by the flexible pulling element, the distance between the corresponding holding members is constant and essentially corresponds to the width of two sections.
  • the fixable holding members are fixed by the flexible element, which is stretched by the flexible pulling element. Because the distance between the fixable holding members corresponds to the width of two sections, the adjustment can take place in such a way that in one position the two unfolded sections lie completely on top of each other, while the other two form the corresponding curtain surface.
  • the displacement of the displaceable holding members arranged between the fixable holding members is advantageously carried out by an infinite flexible adjustment means, for example a cord, which can be deflected via the last holding member.
  • the adjustable holding members are each coupled to one strand of this cord, with a mutual distance that corresponds to the distance a. Thereby all adjustable holding links can be moved together.
  • a further advantageous embodiment of the invention consists in that, in addition to fixing the fixable holding members, a further infinite flexible fixing means, for example a cord, is provided which can be deflected via the last holding member.
  • the holding members to be fixed have a substantially cuboidal outer contour which can be inclined by the fixing means relative to the guide rail in which the holding members are guided, i.e. the holding members tilt in the guide rail. This enables a part of the curtain to be withdrawn while the extended area of the curtain remains unchanged. When pulling back the curtain, the fixed holding members are released from the outside in the direction of pulling back.
  • the device according to the invention is advantageously carried out with a guide rail which is fastened essentially horizontally in a room, so that the sections connected to the curtain hang vertically downward.
  • a guide rail which is fastened essentially horizontally in a room, so that the sections connected to the curtain hang vertically downward.
  • the curtain or the sections consist of textile fabric that has no inherent rigidity. So that these sections consisting of textile fabric and consequently the curtain hang in the desired manner and form the folds, it is advantageous to attach weights to the lower edge of the individual sections.
  • two vertically arranged rails, between which the curtain is clamped so that the adjustment of the curtain in the manner described could take place simultaneously in both guide rails.
  • the sections that form the curtain can easily consist of wood and / or metal and / or plastic slats, especially when this curtain is used as a partition. If, for example, the sections have different colors, a different color effect can be produced by adjusting the sections.
  • the curtain 1 is composed of individual sections 2, 3, 4 and 5, which have a rectangular shape, and which are connected to one another along the long sides. These longitudinal connection points form longitudinal folds 6, 7, 8 and 9, around which the curtain 1 can be folded.
  • the four sections 2 to 5 form a group
  • the curtain 1 is composed of several such groups, which are arranged next to one another and correspondingly connected to one another, the number of groups arranged next to one another depending on the width of the curtain 1. 1 shows three groups arranged side by side.
  • the section 2 of the curtain 1 forming the edge is held by a first holding member 10.
  • the curtain is held by a further holding member 11.
  • an adjustable holding member 12 is attached, which holds the curtain between sections 3 and 4 on the longitudinal fold 7.
  • the individual sections consist of a textile fabric, which are suspended from the holding members 10, 11 and 12 and fall vertically downwards.
  • the holding members 10, 11 and 12 are guided horizontally in the guide rail 13, shown exploded in FIG. 1.
  • the guide rail 13 can be composed of individual pieces 13a and 13b.
  • the individual pieces 13a and 13b are connected via plug-in members 13c, which bring the individual pieces 13a and 13b into an exact mutual position.
  • the ends of the guide rail 13 are with covers 13d Mistake. This arrangement allows a guide rail 13 to be extended to practically any length, it being possible for this guide rail 13 to be disassembled into individual pieces 13a, 13b which have a short length for transport.
  • Each of the holding members 10, 11 and 12 has an axially downward-looking axle piece 14, on each of which two flags 15 and 16 made of dimensionally stable material are mounted, which can be pivoted independently of one another about the vertical axis 14.
  • the flags 15 and 16 have a length which corresponds approximately to the width of a section.
  • the sections 2 to 5 of the curtain 1 are fastened to these flags 15 and 16.
  • the curtain 1 In the position shown in Fig. 1, the curtain 1 is fully extended.
