After that, the first fixing column 521 which is pressed 1s released, and the first fixing column 521 gradually returns to its original shape by an elastic force of the compressed spring 53 and gradually forces the press buckle 52 to move toward an opposite direction of the convex abutting portion 543 and to gradually move to the original position.

Thus, the plurality of second embedding rods 525 respectively abuts and fixes on the abutting body 516 to prevent the press buckle 52 from coming out of an outer side of the first opening 512. Finally, the safety pin 57 1s inserted into the first perforation 527 and the press buckle 52 is locked.

Therefore, the blind 8 can be opened or closed.

The second method is as shown in FIG. 7A, FIG. 7B, FIG. 8C, FIG. 9, FIG. 10, and FIG. 11. The third fixing column 41 at the right end of the sleeving tube 3 is installed with the fixing bracket 7 nailed at the right end first, and the third fixing column 41 is guided by the guiding groove 725 and positioned in the through hole 724 of the fixing bracket 7 nailed at the right end.

Then, the safety pin 57 1s pulled outward from the first perforation 527, and a width of the triangle shape of the retractable portion 572 is reduced through the first perforation 527, so as to pull out the safety pin 57 entirely and unlock the press buckle 52. Then, the first fixing column 521 at the left end of the sleeving tube 3 is installed with the fixing bracket 7 nailed at the left end, and the first fixing column 521 1s guided by the

16 guiding groove 725 and positioned in the through hole 724 of the fixing bracket 7 nailed at the left end.

The first fixing column 521 is pressed simultaneously to compress the spring 53 installed in the first chamber 524 and the second chamber 545, and to force the press buckle 52 to move toward the convex abutting portion 543 in the second chamber 545, so that the first fixing column 521 is positioned in the through hole 724. After that, the first fixing column 521 which is pressed is released, and the first fixing column 521 gradually returns to its original shape by an elastic force of the compressed spring 53 and gradually forces the press buckle 52 to move toward an opposite direction of the convex abutting portion 543 and to gradually move to the original position.

Thus, the plurality of second embedding rods 525 abuts and fixes on the abutting body 516 to prevent the press buckle 52 from coming out of an outer side of the first opening 512. Finally, the safety pin 57 is inserted into the first perforation 527 and the press buckle 52 is locked.

Therefore, the roller blind 2 can be assembled and fixed by the fixing brackets 7 at the left end and the right end, and the blind 8 can be opened or closed. 17
