IZIDUR WEISS, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
DRAPERY-SUPPORT.

Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Nov. 28, 1916.
To all whom t may concern.'
Be it known that T, TZIDUR 1Wnrss, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of New York, county and State of Newl York, have invented a certain new and useful Tmprovement in Drapery-Supports, of which the following is a full, clear, and eXact specification.
This invention relates more particularly to a class of devices adapted to be used in conjunction with draperies.
My invention has for its object primarily to provide a support designed to be employed for permitting curtains, lambrequins, portires, and other draperies to be easily suspended at the windows, doorways, and other places in buildings and elsewhere, and which is of an adjustable form so that the support may be removably mounted in windows and doorways of various widths as well as being of a form whereby draperies of different kinds may be removably supported at a single window, or doorway. This is accomplished mainly by providing a rigid member, or bar of a desired length so as to be disposed between the stiles of the trame of a window, or doorway, or other spaced supports, and on one end of the bar is a stationary retaining element adapted to engage one of the supports to removably hold this end of the bar thereto. On the other end of the bar is an adjustable retaining element adapted to be moved into engagement with the second support when the retaining element is adjusted accordingly for remov ably holding the other end of the bar to the support.
Other objects of the invention are to provide on one side of the bar means whereby curtains may be detachably suspended therefrom; to provide on the opposite side of the bar means to permit a lambrequin, or other drapery to be detachably applied thereon; and to provide a drapery support of a sirnple, eiicient and durable construction.
A practical embodiment of the invention is represented in the accompanying drawing forming a part of this speciiication in which similar characters of reference indicate cor responding parts in all the views, the said invention being more fully described hereinafter, and then pointed out in the claim at the end of the description.
Tn the drawing, Figure 1 is a sectionalr View taken vertically through a window showing the manner of using one form of drapery support embodying my invention in conjunction therewith. Fig. 2 is a top plan, partly broken away, of the support. Fig. 3 is an end view of the support. Fig. 4 is a sectional view, partly broken away and partly in detail, taken on the line TV-TV of Fig. 3, and Fig. 5 is an enlarged fragmentary side View, partly in section, of part of the retaining element used in the support.
The device, or drapery support has a rigid member, or bar 10 which may be of any suitable size and shape, though the bar is preferably substantially rectangular, as viewed transversely. The underside of the rectangular bar 10, at one end thereof is recessed, at 11, and also in this underside of the bar adjacent to this recess is a second recess 12. `vertically through the bar 10, and adj acent to the second recess 12 is an opening 13. rThrough the partitions, or parts,-as 14, of the bar between the recesses 11 and 12 is an orifice 15, while through the partition, or part, as 16, between the recess 12 and the opening 13 is an oriice 17 which is in register with the orice 15, and the recess 12 is bridged by a plate 18 which is screwed, or bolted to the lower ends of the partitions 14 and 16. On one end of the bar 10 is a stationary retaining element, as 19, adapted to engage a support to removably hold this end ot' the bar thereto, and on the other end of this'bar is an adjustable retaining element, as 20, adapted to engage a second support for removably holding the other end oil the bar when the device is in use, as will be hereinafter more fully explained.
The stationary retaining element 19 is preferably in the form of two pins 21 and 22 having pointed ends, and these pins eX- tend from spaced parts of a plate 23 which is secured by any suitable means on one end of the bar 10. The adjustable retaining element 20 has a plate 24 disposed trans versely in the recess 12 of the bar 10, and this plate is screwed, or bolted to the bar so as to be tiXed thereto. Through the plate 24 is a threaded hole 25 which is in register with the orifices 15 and 17 of the partitions 14 and 16 of the bar 10. Screwed through s the opening of the plate 24, and rotatably disposed through the oriiices 15 and 17 of these partitions is a threaded rod 26 of a length to extend from the center of the opening 13 through the recess 12 and outwardly of the recess 11. On the end of the rod 26 in the opening 13 is a handle, or
eoI
j wheel 27 having a Vnumber of radially dis- Y posed spokes, `as shown, to permit the rod tobe'readily rotated for being guided invwardly and outwardly ofthe recess 11 with relation to the second end of the bar l0. In the end partof the rod 26 opposite to the handle 27 is an annular groove 28, and revolubly movable in this groove is a plate 29 from spaced intervals of which extend pins 30 and 31 having point-ed ends.
`Serving as means to permit curtains and the like to be'detachably suspended from the bar l0, projecting from spaced parts of one ported at the window.
of the side edges of the bar 10 may be two alined apertured brackets, or eyes, as 32 and 33, of well-known forms, and 1n the aper- Vtures of thesejbrackets is removably disposed amd, 34.
In order 'to permit a lambrequin, or other drapery to be also detachably Vsuspended from the bar lO, on the top of the bar at its secondV side edge is a strip, or flange 35 .Y having a number of spaced pins 36 projecting upwardly therefrom, and these pins havefpointed free ends.
When the device is employed for suspending draperies, such as curtains, as 37, and a plate 29 together with the pins 30 and 3l outwardly of the recess 11 of the supporting bar 10 for causing these pins to penetrate the second stile of the window frame. The devicerwill thereby be removably sup- 'Io allow one, or more curtains to be suspended from the de- A vice the rod 34 is removed from the apertured brackets 3 2 and 33, and this rod is passed through a passage provided by hem- Ining the upper end-of each curtain. The rod`34 is then remounted in the apertured brackets 32 and 33, and the curtains are afterward draped in the manner desired. A lambrequin, or other drapery may sub,- sequently be suspended from the device by attaching the upper part thereof on the pins 36 projecting upwardly from the bar 10, the arrangement of these pins permitting a neat arrangement of the drapery, or an easy application of the lambrequin to the device following the previous formation thereof in the style desired. In this manner a simple, ellicient, and durable support is provided for permitting draperies to be readily suspended at windows, doorways, and other places in 'buildings and elsewhere, and by providing the adjustable retaining element 2O of the form described the device is susceptible of being removably mounted in windows and doorways of various widths by reason of this retaining element serving to compensate for shortage of the bar 10.
In the foregoing description, I have embodied the preferred form of my invention, but I do not wish to be understood as limiting myself thereto, as I am aware that modifications may be made therein without departing from the principle, or sacrificing any of the advantages of this invention, therefore I reserve to myself the right to make such changes as fairly fall within the scope thereof.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent In a drapery support, a bar adapted to be disposed between two supports, stationary pointed pins on one end of the bar, adapted to be forced into engagement with one of the supports for holding one end of the bar, a rod rotatable on the other end of the bar so as to be extensibly adjusted relative to this end of the bar, and the rod having pointed pins projecting therefrom to engage the second support when the rod is adjusted accordingly for holding the second end of the bar to the support, a rod removably mounted on the bar to permit drapery to be detachably suspended therefrom, and pointed pins also on the bar to allow other draperies to be detachably suspended from the bar.
rI`his specification signed and witnessed. this seventh day of September, A. D. 1915.
