Has been solved by a bed curtain which can be suspended and moved by the curtain holder (1).

[0005]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In the following description, the curtain holder of the bed will be described simply as a curtain holder. FIG. 1 is a side view showing an example of the curtain holder of the present invention. FIG.
FIG. 2 is a front view showing the entire curtain using the curtain holder of FIG. 1. FIG. 3 is a plan view showing the arrangement of the curtain in FIG. FIG. 4 shows (a) of the curtain holder of FIG.
It is a partial perspective view showing a state of being attached to a curtain, (b) a partial front view for an intermediate portion, and (c) a partial front view for an end portion.

In FIG. 1, a curtain holder 1 according to the present invention is shown.
Are rails 2, wheels 4, support rollers 3, support rods 5,
It has an adjusting nut 6, an end holding member 8, an intermediate holding member 8 ', and engagement pieces 9, 9'. The rail 2 is a long material having a constant cross section, and has grooves 2a, 2a formed in a lower concave shape at the same level in the horizontal longitudinal direction at the lower end thereof, and a wall portion standing vertically upward from each groove 2a. 2b, 2b and the walls 2b, 2b
b Attach the upper end and fix it to the center with a fixing tool 2 such as a set screw.
The groove 2a, the wall 2b, and the upper surface 2c are integrally formed of a metal such as an aluminum mold. The seat plate 11 is prepared in combination with the fixing tool 2d.

[0007] A pair of wheels 4 is used, and shaft portions 4a, 4a are pivotally supported by support rollers 3, and groove portions 2a, 2a of rail 2 are provided.
It is slidable on the top. The upper end of the support rod 5 is fixed to the lower end of the support roller 3, a screw portion is provided below, and upper and lower adjustment nuts 6 are screwed together, and a plate-like support plate 7 is sandwiched between the adjustment nuts 6. The upper end of the pipe-shaped end holding material 8 or the intermediate portion holding material 8 'is fixed to the support plate 7 by, for example, welding or the like. The middle to lower part of the support rod 5 is placed in the end holding member 8 or the intermediate holding member 8 ′, and the adjustment nuts 6, 6 raise and lower the support plate 7 to move the end holding member 8 or the intermediate holding member 8. The distance of 8 'from the support roller 3 can be adjusted. In particular, when it is not necessary to adjust the distance from the support roller 3, the support plate 7 may be fixed to the support plate 7 by, for example, welding without using a threaded portion below the support rod 5. The end holding material 8 or the intermediate holding material 8 'is made of metal or hard plastic. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 4, the length of the end holding material 8 is L according to the lower edge of the curtain 14, and the length of the intermediate holding material 8 ′ is L ′ slightly longer than the upper edge of the curtain 14. At the lower end of the intermediate holding member 8 ', an outwardly upward engaging piece 9' of, for example, a hook is protruded, and the end holding material 8 has an outwardly upwardly extending portion at substantially the same position as the engaging piece 9 '. For example, a hook engaging piece 9 is provided in a protruding manner.

Next, the assembly and operation of the curtain holder 1 will be described. In order to assemble the curtain holder 1, a notch 13 narrower than the back reinforcing member 10 is provided on the back surface 13a of the ceiling 13 at the position where the bed 16 is placed on the floor GG.
c, the notch 13c is shielded, and the rail 2 is attached to the back reinforcing member 10 having a substantially U-shaped cross section, which is horizontally stretched so as to cover the notch 13c.
c is fixed by a set screw 2d from below and a seat plate 11 from above. The lower part of the notch 13c and the ceiling 13
The edge member 12 having an L-shaped cross section is fixed to the surface 13b of the second member. The curtain holder 1 has a notch 13
c may be exposed and directly attached to the surface 13b without drilling, but it is preferable to incorporate it as described above from the appearance. A pair of wheels 4 is fitted into the groove portions 2a, 2a of the rail 2, and a screw portion below a support rod 5 fixed to a lower end portion of a support roller 3 that supports the shaft portions 4a, 4a of the wheels 4 is vertically adjusted. A support plate 7 is sandwiched via nuts 6, 6, and an upper end of a pipe-shaped end holding material 8 or an intermediate holding material 8 ′ is fixed to the support plate 7. Both ends of the curtain 14 have a long length L according to the lower edge of the curtain 14.
And an intermediate holding member 8 'having a short length L' slightly longer than the upper edge is used at a plurality of intermediate portions of the curtain 14. The support plate 7 is moved up and down by adjustment to adjust the distance of the end holding material 8 or the intermediate holding material 8 ′ from the support roller 3, so that even when the relative position between the ceiling 13 and the bed 16 changes, it is possible to easily cope with it. is there. On the other hand, when the support plate 7 is fixed below the support rod 5, the distance from the support roller 3 is fixed and does not change.

Next, the attachment of the curtain holder 1 to the curtain 14 will be described with reference to FIGS. The curtain 14 is usually made of cloth or a sheet-like material, and the upper end of the main body 14a is folded back to form a substantially horizontal sewing line 14c.
The upper edge 14b is sewn along the upper edge 14b, and a plurality of openings 14
f 'is drilled and fringed with eyelets. Further, the both side end portions are folded back, and a plurality of hook-and-loop fasteners 14g are interposed in the vertical direction along the overlap margin 14e in the up-and-down direction to form a stopper cylindrical side edge portion 14d. An opening 14f is formed in the hole and is bordered by eyelets.
The eyelets are customarily used to reinforce the openings 14f, 14f '. The hook-and-loop fastener 14g can be easily detached from the end holding members 8 when washing the curtain 14 or the like, and the number may be selected according to the vertical length of the curtain 14, and for example, in the example shown in FIG. It is located in four places.
A pair of end holding members 8, 8 are inserted into both side edges 14d of the cylindrical shape, and an opening 14f is formed in the engaging piece 9 and an opening is formed in each engaging piece 9 'of the plurality of intermediate holding materials 8'. The curtain 14 is held in a suspended state by the curtain holder 1 by fitting the respective 14f 'into each other. In the example of FIG. 3, the window 18, the wall 17, and the curtains 14 and 14 orthogonally cross the bed 16 when viewed from the plane side. It is arranged to surround and shield from the outside. The connection with the window 18, the wall 17 and the curtain 14 may be changed from two directions in the example of FIG. 3 to one, three or four directions depending on the installation place of the bed 16. The vertical direction is
As shown in FIG. 2, the upper end of the curtain 14 as viewed from the side is made openable by an open portion 15 shown in a cross-dotted line, and a main body 14 a is arranged below the open portion 15.

[0010] In the example of FIGS.
Although it is in a shielding state from the outside by 4 and 14, the open state can be easily obtained by moving the curtains 14 and 14 in the sliding direction X or Y, and by moving the curtains 14 and 14 in the direction opposite to the sliding direction X or Y It can be easily restored to the shielded state. Due to the rigidity and weight of the long end holding members 8, 8, the curtains 14, 14 can keep the curtains 14, 14 in a vertically constrained state, for example, even when wind comes in from a window. It is possible to ensure privacy easily and reliably without being unexpectedly opened.

[0011]

According to the curtain holder of the present invention and the curtain using the same, it is possible to keep the curtain surrounding the bed in the upper and lower restraining state with a simple structure, for example, when wind enters from a window. In such a case, the state is not unexpectedly opened, and privacy can be easily and surely ensured. In addition, by adjusting the distance between the end holding member and the intermediate holding member with respect to the supporting roller, it is possible to easily cope with a case where the relative position between the ceiling and the bed changes.
