UNITED STATES PATENT OFFIC.
IRA K. PRESCOTT, OF ARLINGTON, NEW JERSEY.
CURTAIN-FIXTURE.
To all whom it may. concern.
'Be it known that I, Ina K. PRESCOTT, a citizen of the United States, residing at Arlington, in the county of Hudson and State of New Jersey, have invented new and useful Improvements in Curtain-Fixtures, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates. to adjustable curtain fixtures and has for its object to improve upon the manner of hanging the ordinary curtains, shades and portieres now in use and to provide an artistic fixture, that may be conveniently adjusted to suit various requirements. To accomplish this end I provide a demountable and adjustable fixture having two supporting brackets for supporting a plurality of adjustable por tiere, shade and curtain rods, and mounting on the. brackets an extensible crown for giving to the fixture a neat and ornamental appearance.
To these ends the invention consists in the novel details of construction and combination of parts more fully hereinafter described and particularly pointed out in the claim.
Referring to the accompanying drawings forming a. part of this specification in which like numerals designate like parts in all the views :Figure 1 is a front elevational view of a portion of window frame showing my improved fixture applied thereto. Fig. 2 is a cross sectional view thereof. Fig. 8 is a longitudinal sectional view taken on the line 33 of Fig. 2 and looking in the direction of one set of arrows thereon. Fig. 4 is a longitudinal sectional view taken on the line 4-4 of Fig. 2 and looking in the direction of the other set of arrows. Fig. 5 is a detail view of one of the extensible curtain rods. Fig. 6 is a detail view of one of the extensible shade rods or rollers.
My improved curtain fixture comprises a pair of supporting brackets 1 on the rear ends of which are the fastening lugs 2 for receiving the screws 3 which secure the brackets in position on the frame of a window or other suitable support when the fixture is adapted to use. The supporting brackets are formed of thin sheet metal and may be made of any desired design and are adapted to support an ornamental and extensible crown 4. The crown comprising the telescoping sections 5 and 6 which by virtue of their extensibility, may be adjusted Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed March 15, 1913.
Patented Aug. 19,1913. Serial No. 754,418.
to any desired position on a window frame and when so adjusted may be secured against displacement by means'ofthe bolts 7 mounted on the lugs 8 formed on the upper ends of the brackets, operating Within the slots 9 formed in the top of the crown. The front 10 and side 11 of the crown, are formed in the usual ornamental manner and extend down a sufiicient distance so as to conceal the curtain brackets and to form a protector for the curtains, portieres etc., at their upper ends.
Secured to the inner faces of each of the brackets and located approximately at the central portion thereof, is a pair of curtain rod taps or sockets 12 in which are held the extensible curtain rod 13 from which lace curtains are suspended when they are desired to be used. A pair of shade roller sockets l i'are also secured to the inner face of each of the brackets for supporting the extensible shade rollers 15 on which may be mounted the usual form of window shades now in use.
Mounted within and connecting the lower front portions of the supporting brackets, is an extensible portiere pole 16 for supporting the usual sliding rings 17 from which are hung the portieres 18. The portieres may be readily drawn apart without touching the material, and asquickly restored to the closed position by means of the operating cords 19 which have their upper ends connected to the central sliding rings, are reaved through the sheaves 20 mounted on the supporting brackets and have their lower ends suspended from the sides of the fixtures where they may be within convenient reach of an operator.
A series of hooks 21 are mounted on the 1 inner and lower front and side edges of the crown for the purpose of supporting a drapery 22 when the same is desired to be used, and from these hooks a lace curtain 23 (see Fig. 2) may be also suspended when portieres are not used. Thus it may be seen that my improved fixture may be utilized for changing the draperies of a window from time to. time, to produce new and varied ornamental effects.
Another ornamental feature to which the fixture may be adapted to use, is in the form of a plate rack, the same being located on the upper front end of the crown and comprises the uprights 24 to which are connected the extensible horizontal rods 25 against which the plates 26 (see Figs. 1 and 2) are adapted to rest, their lower edges being seated within the depression 27 formed in the top of the crown.
In securing the fixture to position on a window frame, the brackets are first adjusted and secured in their proper positions preferably about one and one-half inches from the top of the casing, the crown is next adjusted to its proper'width in relation to the window frame and secured against displacement by means of the looking nuts and then the various curtains, shades and portieres are hung and draped in a neat and artistic manner. 7
On the drawings my improved fixture is shown applied to an ordinary window frame,
but the same may be slightly modified so that it may be secured to the frame of a bay-window or the like, as by providing the sides of the crown with an extensible porowers tion similar in construction to that shown on the front portion.
It is obvious that those skilled in the art may vary the details of construction and arrangements of parts without'departing from the spirit of my invention and therefore I do not wish to be limited to such features except as may be required by the claim.
What is claimed as new is:
A demountable curtain fixture comprising a pair of supporting brackets, a telescopic crown adjustably mounted on the brackets, and a locking means mounted on the brackets and coacting with the crown for locking the' crown in any adjusted position.
In testimony whereof ll aifix my signature in presence of two witnesses,
IRA K. PRESCOTT.
