CURTAIN-POLE HOLDER.
Specification. of Letters Patent.
Patented May 21, 1912.
Application filed November 23, 1910. Serial No. 593,859.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, HENRY T. HOLLAND, citizen of the United States, residing at 67 Madison avenue, Winfield, Long Island, in the county of Queens and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Curtain-Pole Holders, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to devices for supporting curtain poles, and it has for its object to provide a device of this kind which will yieldingly support the curtain pole, so that the curtain will be prevented from being torn or ripped oil the pole in case it should get caught, or be stepped on.
With this object in view, the invention consists in a novel construction and arrangement of parts to be hereinafter described and claimed, reference being had to the accompanying drawing in which- Figure 1 is a front elevation showing the curtain pole and its holders, one of the latter being shown partly in section. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of one of the holders. Fig. 3 is a side elevation showing the holder in another position.
' Referring specifically to the drawing, 5 denotes a curtain pole which supports the curtain (not shown) in the ordinary manner. A holder is provided for each end of the curtain pole, and as these two holders are alike in structure, a description of one suffices for both.
The holder comprises a base plate 6 having apertures to receive screws or other fastening means 7 whereby the holder is fastened to the window or door casing. From the face of the plate extends a horizontal arm 8 carrying at its extremity an upstanding vertical stem 9 to the top of which is screwed, or otherwise removably mounted, a knob or ball 10. Around the stem 9 is coiled a spring 11, which seats at its lower end on an enlargement 12 formed at the base of the stem.
The curtain pole 5 is fitted at its ends with eyes 13 whereby said pole is mounted on the holders, the curtain pole being placed so that the stems 9 pass through the eyes. The eyes are loose on the stems so as to be free to slide up and down thereon. The springs 11 are located below the eyes 13, and the latter rest on the upper ends of said springs. The curtain pole is therefore yieldingly supported at its ends, and will therefore give if the curtain should get caught, or be stepped upon, thus preventing the curtain from being torn or ripped oif the pole.
In applying the curtain pole to the holders, the knobs 10 are first removed from the stems, and the eyes 13 are then slipped over the stems from the top thereof, after which the knobs are replaced.
The holders can be reversed, as shown in Fig. 3, in case the window or door is too near the ceiling.
The holders herein described are simple in construction and they effectually serve the purpose for which they are designed. N0 specially constructed curtain pole is required, it being necessary only to take an ordinary curtain pole and apply to the ends thereof the parts 13, which may be ordinary screw eyes. The holders may also be suitably ornamented.
I claim:
The combination with a curtain pole having eyes at its ends; of holders for said pole, each of said holders comprising a base, a horizontal arm extending from the base, a vertical stem extending from the arm, an abutment at the inner end of the stem, said stem passing loosely through the eye of the pole to permit vertical movement of said pole, resilient means carried by the stem and engageable with the eye to provide a yieldin support for the pole, and a head removab ly connected to the extremity of the stem.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two Witnesses.
HENRY TUFTS HOLLAND.
