Abstract

It comprises a tube and rings. It is characterised in that the said tube T is provided with a longitudinal slot made along its upper generatrices and in that, inside this slot, is arranged a profile PF whose cross-section is substantially in the shape of a U, intended to serve as a passage for the cord or cords.

Description

L'invention se rapporte aux tringles à rideaux de style. The invention relates to curtain rods in style.

Jusqu'à présent les tringles de ce type étaient constituées par un simple tube portant des anneaux coulissants. Until now, rods of this type have consisted of a simple tube carrying sliding rings.

La plupart du temps ces tringles ne comportent pas de moyen de tirages car la ou les drisses restant apparentes détruisent les qualités esthétiques que l'on peut attendre d'un décor utilisé dans une pièce d'apparat. Most of the time these rods do not include any means of pulling because the halyard or halyards remaining visible destroy the aesthetic qualities that can be expected from a decor used in a ceremonial room.

Dans les cas ou neanmoins, un tirage était de siré, on devait constaté un fonctionnement imparfait3 la ou les drisses déraillant lors de leur passage sur les poulies de changement d'orientation. In the cases or nevertheless, a drawing was of siré, one had to note an imperfect functioning 3 the halyard (s) derailing during their passage on the pulleys of change of orientation.

L'invention propose une tringle de style ne présentant pas ces inconvénients esthétiques et fonctionnels. The invention proposes a style rod which does not have these aesthetic and functional drawbacks.

Celle-ci est constituee par un tube principalement décoratif fonction du style et dissimulé dans la partie supérieure de celui-ci > un profilé assurant le passage des drisses et le guidage des anneaux conducteurs. This is constituted by a mainly decorative tube depending on the style and hidden in the upper part of it> a profile ensuring the passage of the halyards and guiding the conductive rings.

- la figure 7 est une vue génerale en perspective d'une tringle selon l'invention. Other features and advantages will appear on reading the description and the claims which follow made with reference to the accompanying drawings in which
- Figure 1 is a section through a rod according to the invention;
- Figure 2 is a side view of the tips 9
- Zesfigures3 and 9 are respectively elevation and plan views of a simple pulley end for halyard return;
- Figures 5 and 6 are respectively elevation and plan views of a halyard change of direction connector;
- Figure 7 is a general perspective view of a rod according to the invention.

Comme on le voit sur la figure 1, la tringle se compose d'un tube exterieur décoratif T fendu longitudinalement dans la zone supérieure de sa surface latérale et d'un profilé PF dont la section transversale a la forme générale d'un U dont les branches verticales 1 et 2 sont pourvues d'empattments intérieurs 3 et 4, dirigés vers son axe médian et d'empattements extérieurs 5 et 6. As seen in Figure 1, the rod consists of a decorative outer tube T split longitudinally in the upper area of its lateral surface and a profile PF whose cross section has the general shape of a U whose vertical branches 1 and 2 are provided with inner serifs 3 and 4, directed towards its median axis and outer serifs 5 and 6.

Au-dessous des empattements 5 et 6 se trouvent des saillies extérieures 7 et 8 ménageant entre elles et les empatements extérieurs des coulisses recevant les lèvres 9 et 10 limitant la fente du tube T. Les empatements 3 et 4,se faisant vis-à-vis, délimitent une fente réduite FP. Below the wheelbases 5 and 6 are external projections 7 and 8 forming between them and the external wheelbases of the slides receiving the lips 9 and 10 limiting the slot of the tube T. The wheelbases 3 and 4, being opposite screws, delimit a reduced slot FP.

La conception pariculière de cette tringle à rideau permet l'utilisation d'accessoires coopérant au résultat rech.erché. The particular design of this curtain rod allows the use of accessories cooperating with the desired result.

Comme on le voit sur la figure 7, le profilé PF se prolonge à chaque extrémité lorsque la tringle est du type à tirage par des embouts El et E2, comportant une parie supérieure dont la section est identique à celle du profilé PF à l'exclusion des saillies 7 et 8, (voir figure 2). As can be seen in FIG. 7, the profile PF is extended at each end when the rod is of the pull type by end pieces El and E2, comprising an upper portion whose section is identical to that of the profile PF except projections 7 and 8 (see Figure 2).

Les embouts El et E2 portent, faisant saillie audessus du niveau de profilé PF9 un clip CL d'immobilisa tion des anneaux fixes AF d'extrémité. The end caps E1 and E2 carry, projecting above the profile level PF9, a clip CL for immobilizing the fixed end rings AF.

L'embout El à son corps en U PF1 prolongé vers le bas, par une cheminée CH1 destinée à être traversee par le piton support de tringle, cette cheminée assurant, en conséquence, une stabilité parfaite de çlle-ci. The end piece El has its U-shaped body PF1 extended downwards, by a chimney CH1 intended to be crossed by the rod support stud, this chimney ensuring, consequently, perfect stability of the latter.

Le fond de 1'U PF1 est percé d'un trou destiné à être traversé par une vis V qui sert d'axe à la poulie de renvoi PR et sur laquelle vient se visser une patte elastique PE dont les extrémités appliquent contre la surface interne du tube pour immobiliser l'embout par rapport à celui-ci. The bottom of the U PF1 is pierced with a hole intended to be traversed by a screw V which serves as an axis for the return pulley PR and onto which an elastic tab PE is screwed, the ends of which apply against the internal surface of the tube to immobilize the tip relative to the latter.

Une cloison K complète le dispositif pour empê cher la patte élastique PE de tourner en même temps que la vis V. A partition K completes the device to prevent the elastic tab PE from turning at the same time as the screw V.

L'embout E2 est conçu comme l'embout 1 à cette différence près, c'est qu'il comporte une seconde cheminée CH2 à deux conduits, un pour chaque brin de la drisse, le changement de direction amenant ces brins dans le plan vertical, étant obtenu par des arrondis venus de moulage avec le fond PF2. The end piece E2 is designed like the end piece 1 except that it has a second CH2 chimney with two conduits, one for each strand of the halyard, the change of direction bringing these strands in the vertical plane , being obtained by rounding from molding with the bottom PF2.

Les embouts El et E2 comportent en outre à leur extrémité extérieure une gorge verticale GV limitée par un fond GF et constituée par deux rainures creuses dans les parois opposes. Cette gorge ass-ure le centrage des pommes de style (non representees). The end pieces E1 and E2 further comprise at their outer end a vertical groove GV limited by a bottom GF and constituted by two hollow grooves in the opposite walls. This groove assures the centering of style apples (not shown).

L'entraînement du ri-deau ou des- double-rideaux est réalise au moyen d'un ou de deux anneaux conducteurs
AC solidaires chacun d'un berceau fixe BF, assujetti à l'extrémité de la drisse D.The drive of the water curtain or double curtains is carried out by means of one or two conductive rings
AC each secured by a fixed cradle BF, secured to the end of the halyard D.

Avantageusement, ce berceau fixe est porté par un glisseur GL pourvu d'une fente dans laquelle peut coulisser un berceau mobile BM solidaire d'un second anneau
AN.Advantageously, this fixed cradle is carried by a glider GL provided with a slot in which can slide a mobile cradle BM secured to a second ring
YEAR.

Les anneaux AC et AN sont reliés- par un- chariot
CR portant la patte de croisement PC comme visible à-la figure 7. The AC and AN rings are connected- by a- trolley
CR carrying the PC crossover tab as shown in Figure 7.
