'lPa'teIi/tedfct. 23,1191?? 'Y appncafionffned-May 21,1917?. .seriaimiiv'aca Tov all tu hom 'it concern:
Be it rknown thatfI, ELIZABETH Amana, a lcitizen of .theUnited States, residing .at Los Angeles, in the,countyfofLos,Angeles and State of Galifornia,have inventedk new and useful' Improvements in lVindowShade Rollers, of which the following is a specification.
Arlhis invention relates Kto a vwindow shade roller and particularly pertains to means forfa-stening the'shadefupon the roller.
One of the most objectionable features to the use of windowsha-des,w of commoniconstruction has been that whenthe shade-is ,enf tirely unrolled it often is drawn from its mounting upon the roller. The principal object of this invention is to provide effective means for securing the shade in its mounted position so that it is not liable to become loose under any circumstances.
Another object of this invention is to provide fastening means which embody an end flange adapted to guide the shade and permit it to roll straight.
It is a further object of this invention to provide ay combined fastener and roller flange which is composed of few parts, inexpensive in their construction and readily adapted to be mounted upon the roller.
Other objects will appear hereinafter.
The invention is illustrated, by way of eX- ample, in the accompanying drawings in which:
Figure l is a view in perspective illustrating the shade roller in its assembled condition with a. portion of the shade broken away to more clearly set forth the detail construction of the fastener'.
Fig. 2 is a view in transverse section as seen on the line 9.-2 of Fig. 1 illustrating the arrangement of the shade upon the fastener.
Fig. 3 is a view in perspective illustrating one of the fasteners disassoci'ated from the roller.
Referring more particularly to the drawings, 10 indicates a window shade roller, cylindrical in section, and preferably formed of wood. This roller is of the spring roller type having a cylindrical trunnion 11 at one end and a flat sided trunnion 1:2 at its opposite end, the uses of which are obvious. Mounted at the opposite ends of the roller are fastening elements 14. These elements, as particularly shown in Fig. 3, are formed with a tubular sleeve 15 adapted toV t snuglyover the yendof the roller and an4 out-turned 'iange'l which'lies. at rightangles tofthe ariisof .theV roller. flhese parts aremade of Vthin gage metal so that'tacks' may ,pierce throughthe sleeve without difficulty. Securedto the sleeve. at apoin't adjacent the -flange 16 is afastening clip 17. This ,clip is., only yfastened to the sleeveat onel end, its opposite endbeing 'free Yand eXv tendingfoutwardly from .the end :of the sleeve; p' Thec'liplisfpreferably Atapered Afrom its fastening'position.Mounted upon the .roller is shade .18,.the uppenend-of which passeszover the roller, around the clip 17, as indicated by the portion 19, and thereafter back between the shade and the clip, as indicated by the numeral 20 where it is se cured by a series of tacks 21 which are driven through the end of the shade and thereafter successively through the clip, shade and sleeve into the roller.
When the fasteners 14 are to be used they are slipped over the ends of the roller with their sleeve portions extending inwardly, after which the shade is positioned around the roller and caused to over-lap the clip portion 17, as particularly indicated by the dotted lines of Fig. 2. The shade portion 2O is then tacked to the roller by means of the tacks 21. 4lmien this has been done the body of the shade is passed over the clip to assume the position indicated by the solid lines of Fig. 2. This method of mounting insures that the shade will be held in a vertical position in relation to the roller and that it will not readily become torn at the edges.
It will thus be seen that the window shade roller here disclosed as fitted with the special fasteners, provides simple positive means for securing the shade and also guide flanges for insuring that the shade will roll straight.
Vhile I have shown the preferred form of my window shade roller as now known to me, it is combination, construction and arrangement may be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of my invention.
I claim:
1. A fastener for window shades, comprising a sleeve adapted to be positioned around the end of a window shade roller, a clip formed upon said sleeve and around which the ends of the shade may be wrapped, and
evident that various changes in thel Shade and clip against the side of the roller.
2. `A fastener for Window shades, comprising a sleeve adapted to loe positioned around the end of a Window shade roller, a clip formed upon said sleeve and around which the ends of the shade may be Wrapped, rneans for simultaneously fastening the shadev and clip against the side of the roller, and an annular iange formed upon said sleeve to guide' the shade as it is Wound upon the roller.
3, A Window shade fastener, comprising a sleeve adapted to be positioned around the ends'ofa Window shade roller, a'olip formed upon said sleeve and extending longitudinally along its side, said clip being y fastened to the sleeve at the outer end thereofandadapted to permit the end of a shade roller to be Wrapped around it, and fastening means for simultaneously securing the shade and sleeve to the roller. Y 4. A Window shade fastener, comprising a sleeve adapted to be positioned around the 'endsv of a Window shade roller, a elip formed upon said sleeve and extending longitudinally along its side, said clip being fastened to the sleeve at the outer end theref of and adapted to permit the end yof a shade roller to be Wrapped around it, fastening means for simultaneously securingthev shade and sleeve to the roller, and an annular flange formed around the outer end of the sleeve adjacent the mountingpoint of the clip. In testimony whereof I have signed my naine to this specification.
