ARPA'IH KISH AND JOHN A. HENRY, OF PORT VUE, PENNSYLVANIA.
CURTAIN-POLE.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, ARPATH Kisn and JOHN A. HENRY, citizens of the United States of America, residing at Port Vue, in the county of Allegheny and State of Penn sylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Curtain-Poles, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawing.
This invention relates to curtain poles, and the objects of our invention are to obviate the necessity of using rings and pins for connecting curtains to a pole and to provide a curtain pole that will present a neat and attractive appearance.
Further objects of our invention are to provide positive and reliable means, in a manner as will be hereinafter set forth, for holding curtains in engagement with the pole, whereby they can be easily arranged and draped, and to provide a pole consisting of comparatively few parts, easily and quickly assembled, and inexpensive to manufacture.
With the above and other objects in View, the invention resides in the novel construction, combination and arrangement of parts to be hereinafter specifically described and then claimed.
Reference will now be had to the drawing, wherein like numerals denote corresponding parts throughout the several views, in which- Figure 1 is a longitudinal sectional view of a portion of a pole in accordance with our invention; Fig. 2 is a plan of a portion of the outer casing, Fig. 3 is an end view of the same, Fig. 1 is a cross sectional view of the curtain pole, Fig. 5 is a side elevation of an end piece adapted to form a part of the pole, Fig. 6 is a longitudinal sectional View of a modified form of our invention, Fig. 7 is a cross sectional View taken on the line IIVII of Fig. 6, F 8 is a similar view taken on the line VIII -VIII of Fig. 6, Fig. 9 is a perspective view of a collar used in connection with the modification, and Fig. 10 is a perspective view of a detached clamping member forming part of the modification.
The reference numeral 1 denotes a hollow, cylindrical casing having a longitudinal slot 2 with the material bordering upon the edges of the slot bent inwardly or reamed to provide roll edges 8 that extend i Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed September 1, 1911.
Patented Mar. 26, 1912.
Serial No. 647,144.
in close proximity to the ends of the casing 1, while the slot 2 is the entire length of said casing. The casing 1 is made of light and durable metal and arranged within the casing is a rod 4: that can be made of wood or metal. The rod 4 is held concentrically of the casing l by cylindrical end pieces 5 fitted in the ends of the casing 1. The end pieces 5 have sockets (5 to receive the ends of the rod and each end piece has a headed pin 7 adapted to engage in a bayonet-shaped slot 8 provided therefor in each end of the casing. The roll edges 3 terminate against the inner ends of the pieces 5 and the outer ends of said pieces have knobs 9 to facilitate placing said pieces in the casing 1.
Fitted over the ends of the casing 1 and the pieces 5 are ornamental caps 10 having cylindrical portions 11 provided with bayonet-shaped slots to receive the ins 7. The casing 1 can be supported by suitable brackets 13 from a Window, frame or alcove frame 14. lVhen the end pieces 5 are removed, the rod 1 can be taken out of the casing 1 and the upper edges of curtains 15 suitably arranged upon the rod. The rod can then be replaced and the roll edges of the casing 1 prevent the curtains from being injured by contacting with said casing.
In Figs. (3 to 10 inclusive there is illustrated a modification of the invention, wherein the cylindrical casing is made of two sections 16 and 17 hinged together, as at 18. Fitted in the ends of the casing are heads 19 having segment-shaped slots 20 to receive the reduced ends 21 of a rod 22 arranged concentrically of the casing. After the reduced ends 21 have been placed in the heads 19, the segment-shaped slots 20 are closed by filler blocks 23 secured, as at 21 to the section 16 of the casing.
Secured to the section 17 of the casing by rivets 25 or other fastening means is a hanger 26 and one of these hangers is located adjacent to each end of the pole in order to engage keepers 27 carried by a frame or other support 28. The reduced ends 21 of the rods 22 are provided with double pointed screws 29 for retaining the caps 30 in engagement with the heads 19. Mounted upon the rod 22, adjacent to the ends thereof, are collars 31 covered by sleeves 32 of yieldable material, as rubber or felt. The upper edges of curtains 33 are draped over the sleeves 32 and retained thereon by resilient clamping members 34.
clamping members maintaining the curtains in engagement with said collars whereby the curtains are retained in position.
In testimony whereof we aflix our signatures in the presence of two witnesses.

JOHN A. HENRY.
What we claim is:
A curtain pole comprising a cylindrical slotted casing, heads fitted in the ends of said casing and having their outer faces flush therewith, a rod supported concentrically of said casing by said heads and capable of supporting the upper portion of curtains, covered collars mounted upon said. rod. and inclosed by the upper portions of the curtains supported by the .r0d and Vitnesses:
