Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] Purpose of the Invention (Field of Industrial Application) This invention relates to a blind having the functions of a horizontal blind and a roll blind.

(Prior art) Conventionally, in order to appropriately adjust the amount of sunlight that enters the room through the window, there have been horizontal blinds with multiple slats supported by ladder cords, or roll blinds that are used by raising and lowering a screen made of fabric, etc. is installed.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) Usually, only one of the horizontal blinds and roller blinds described above is placed in relation to the window. Therefore, in order to enjoy the functions of both horizontal blinds and roll blinds, it is necessary to install both blinds separately, and if you try to install horizontal blinds and roll blinds side by side in the front and back direction of the window, the head box of both blinds will There was a problem in that the estimated dimensions of the window frame had to be made extra large in order to accommodate the window frame.

Structure of the Invention (Means for Solving the Problems) In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, this invention has a structure in which the roll blind 9 is suspended and supported from the bottom rail 7 of the horizontal blind 1.

(Function) With the above means, both blinds 1 and 9 can be used either as a horizontal blind or a roll blind, or in a state in which both are connected vertically.

(Embodiment) An embodiment embodying this invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. As shown in FIG. 1, a horizontal blind 1 has a head box 2 fixed to a window frame, etc. Multiple stages of slats 4 are suspended and supported via cords 3.
As shown in the figure, the slats 4 can be raised and lowered and the angle can be adjusted by operating a lifting cord 5 and an angle adjustment string 6 that are suspended from one side of the head box 2.

A bottom rail 7 is suspended from the lowest part of the ladder cord 3. The bottom rail 7 is formed into a square tube shape, and the lower piece 8 is rotatably supported on one side as a fulcrum, and is normally suspended vertically as shown by the solid line in FIG. The bottom rail 7 may be opened downward or supported horizontally as shown by the chain line in the same figure.
It is designed to be positioned in one of the closed positions.

A roll blind 9 is supported on the bottom rail 7. That is, the winding shaft 10 is rotatably supported in the bottom rail 7 in its longitudinal direction,
A screen 11 is wound around the winding shaft 10. The winding shaft 10 is provided with a known self-weight effect prevention device for suspending and supporting the screen 11 at an arbitrary position and a known winding device (both not shown) for automatically winding up the screen 11. , if the screen 11 is completely rolled up and the lower opening of the bottom rail 7 is closed with the lower piece 8, the roll blind 9 will close the bottom rail 7 as shown in FIG.
It is designed to be completely stored inside.

Now, the horizontal blind 1 constructed as described above can be constructed as shown in FIG. It can be used like a normal horizontal blind as shown.

On the other hand, by lowering the slats 4 to an appropriate position, opening the lower piece 8 and pulling out the screen 11 to an appropriate position, the roll blind 9 is suspended from the bottom rail 7 of the horizontal blind 1, as shown in FIG. The window is supported, and in this state, sunlight can be appropriately taken in from the upper part of the window, while sunlight entering the room from the lower part of the window can be blocked. Therefore, it is possible to prevent furniture placed near a window from fading due to sunlight while ensuring adequate lighting into the room.

Furthermore, this horizontal blind 1 can also be used as a normal roller blind as shown in FIG. 4 by pulling out the screen 11 with the slats 4 pulled up to the upper limit.

As described above, this horizontal blind 1 can be used either as a normal horizontal blind or a roll blind, or with a roll blind suspended below the horizontal blind, and the roll blind 9 can be used as a horizontal blind. Since it is suspended and supported from the bottom rail 7 of the blind 1, it is only necessary to ensure the dimensions necessary for attaching the horizontal blind 1 to the window frame, and there is no need to increase the expected dimensions of the window frame.

In addition, when the screen 11 is raised to the upper limit, the roll blind 9 is completely stored inside the bottom rail 7 by closing the lower piece 8 of the bottom rail 7, so it is not exposed from the bottom rail 7 when not in use. It doesn't spoil the beauty.

Effects of the invention As detailed above, with this invention, the horizontal blind 1 and the roll blind 9 can be suspended and supported from the window frame by simply attaching the head box of the horizontal blind 1 to the window frame.
It can be used as a roll blind 9 or with both blinds 1 and 9 suspended and supported vertically in series, and exhibits an excellent effect.
