  • the extending area of the covering body 31 is substantially equal to or slightly larger than the extending area of the slats set 22 .
  • the covering body 31 has a covering cloth 311 and a plurality of sleeves 312 transversely extending at one side of the covering cloth 311 .
  • the top side and the bottom side of the covering cloth 311 attaches on the head rail 21 and bottom rail 23 respectively.
  • the head rail 21 and the bottom rail 23 are covered by the covering cloth 311 to smooth the rigid shapes of the two rails 21 and 23 .
  • the sleeves 312 of the covering body 31 are made by sewing the covering cloth 311 at determined intervals.
  • each of the sleeves 312 forms a receiving space 313 therein.
  • Each of the receiving spaces 313 is opening at both end and the space of the receiving space 313 is substantially equal to or slightly larger than the size of one slat 221 .
  • Each of the sleeves 312 has two openings 314 corresponding to the opening 222 of each slat 221 .
  • the connecting device 32 crosses the sleeves 312 at the outer ends.
  • the connecting device 32 connects to the tilt controlling assembly 26 via two connecting pieces 33 and 34 for driving the slats 221 to tilt.
