UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
EMIL KERN, 0F IRVINGTON, NEW JERSEY.
WINDOW-SHADE ATTACHMENT.
To all whom z't'mag concern I Be it known that I, EMIL KERN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Irvington, in the county of Essex and State of New Jersey, have invented new and useful Improvements in Window-Shade Attachments, of which the following is a spec1fi cation.
This invention relates to improvements in window shade attachments and has particular application to means whereby the lower edge of the window shade may be held away from the window jamb to facilitate ventilation.
In carrying out the present invention, it is my purpose to provide an attachment for window shades whereby when a shade has been drawn down the lower edge thereof may be held spaced apart from the window j amb and the shade prevented from swing ing back and forth thereby enabling the windows to be opened to promote ventilation.
It is also my purpose to provide a device of the class described which will embrace the desired features of simplicity, efficiency and durability which may be readily and quickly applied to the shade and which when not in use will be carried by the shade in an out of the way position.
Vith the above and other objects in view,
the invention consists in the construction,
combination and arrangement of parts hereinafter set forth in and falling within the scope of the claims.
In the drawing: Figure 1 is a view in elevation of a window shade equipped with a device constructed in accordance with the present invention. Fig. 2 is a view in side elevation of a window j amb and shade equipped with the present invention. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of one of the devices removed from the curtain.
Referring now to the accompanying drawing in detail, 1 indicates an appropriate form of window shade carried by the usual spring roller 2 carried by brackets 3, 3 at the upper end of the window j amb J.
Fastened to the lower edge of the shade 1 adjacent to the opposite ends thereof are brackets 4-, 4 each comprising a securing plate 5 of substantially rectangular contour and formed with apertures 6 designed to receive screws 7 whereby the plate may be secured to the curtain. Formed integral with the outer end of the plate 5 is a small Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Oct. 20, 1914.
Application fi1ed December 27, 1913. Serial No. 809,035. i
When it is desired to hold the lower edge of the shade away from the j amb and secure the curtain against swinging movement, the arms 11 are swung outwardly of the curtain at right angles thereto against the action of the springs 10 and the eyes 12 engage with the hooks 14. The rings 17 on the lower ends of the chains 16 are now engaged with the hooks 18, the chains cooperating with the arms -to maintain the curtain in proper position, as illustrated in Fig. 2.
From the foregoing description taken in connection with the accompanying drawing, the construction and. manner of employing my invention will be readily apparent. It will be seen that I have provided an attachment for window shades whereby the latter may be maintained at an angle to the window jamb and spaced apart therefrom in such manner as to promote ventilation, while the shades are held against swinging movement under the action of the air.
I claim:
1. The combination with a window shade, of brackets secured to the lower edge of the shade adjacent to the ends thereof, a horizontal arm journaled in each bracket and capable of swinging movement, means holding said arms normally against the curtain,
and means carried by the window jamb and adapted to be engaged by said arms and hold the same at right angles to the curtain whereby the latter will be held away from the window.
2. The combination with a window shade, of brackets secured to the lower edge of the shade adjacent to the ends thereof, a horizontal arm journaled in each bracket and capable of swinging movement, means holding said arms normally against the curtain, means carried by the window j amb and adapted to be engaged by said arms and hold the same at right angles to the curtain whereby the latter will be held away from the window, and means carried by said ourtain and cooperating withsaid arms.
3. The combination with a window shade, of brackets secured to the lower edge of the shade adjacent to the ends thereof, a horizontal arm journaled in each bracket and capable of swinging movement, means holdmeans carried by the window jamb and adapted to be engaged by said arms and hold the same at right angles to the curtain whereby the latter will be held away from the window, and chains depending from the lower edge of said curtain, and hooks carried by the window jamb and adapted to be engaged by the free ends of said chains to hold the curtain against swinging move-- ment.
l. The combination with a window shade, of brackets secured to the lower edge of the shade adjacent to the ends thereof and each comprising a securing plate, a casing car ried by said plate, a vertical pin journaled in said casing, arms secured to the upper end of said pin, a spring encircling said pin and the curtain, hooks carried by the adjacent portions of the window jamb and adapted to be engaged by the outer ends of said arms to hold the latter at right angles to the curtain whereby the curtain will be held away from the window.
5. The combination with a window shade, of brackets secured to the lower edge of the shade adjacent to the ends thereof and each comprisinga securing plate, a casing carried by said plate, a vertical pin j ournaled in said casing, arms secured to the upper end of said pin, a spring encircling said pin and acting to hold said arms normally against the curtain, hooks carried by the adjacent portions of the window jamb and adapted to be engaged by the outer ends of said arms to hold the latter at right angles to the curtain whereby the curtain will be held away from the window, and lugs extending upwardly from each plate in the path of movement of said arms and serving to limit the movement of the arms under the action of the springs.
6. The combination with a window shade,
j of brackets secured to the lower edge of the shade adjacent to the ends thereof and each j comprising a securing plate, a casing caring said arms normally against the curtain,
ried by said plate, a vertical pin journaled in said casing, arms secured to the upper end of said pin, a spring encircling said pin and acting to hold said arms normally against the curtain, hooks carried by the adjacent portions of the window jamb and adapted to be engaged by the outer ends of sald arms to hold the latter at right angles to the curtain whereby the curtain will be held away from the window, lugs extending upwardly from each plate in the path of movement of said arms and serving to limit the movement of the arms under the action of the springs, chains depending from the lower edge of i said curtain, and hooks carried by the window j amb and adapted to be engaged by said chains to hold the curtain against swinging movement. acting to hold said arms normally against 1 In testimony whereof I affiX my signature in presence of two witnesses.
