GEORGE II. SMITH, OF PROVIDENCE, RHODE ISLAND, ASSIGNOR T0 CHARLES D. KENNEY, 0F CRANSTON', RHODE ISLAND.
CURTAIN -ROD FIXTURE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed May 3, 1920. Serial No. 378,369.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, Gnoncn H. SMITH, a citizen of the United States, residing at Providence, in the county of Providence and State of Rhode Island, have invented cer' tain new and useful Improvements in Curtain-Rod Fixtures, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to curtain rod supports and has for its essential objects an extcnsive frictional or bearing area upon the rod; a minimum of parts; inexpensiveness of construction; and security.
To the above ends essentially my invention consists in such parts and in such combinations of parts as fall within the scope of the appended claims.
In the accompanying drawings which form a part of this specilication- Figure 1, a side elevation of my brackets engaging a curtain rod which is shown partially broken away,
Fig. 2, a similar elevation of my bracket, showing a portion of the adjacent rod in central longitudinal section,
Fig. 3, a front elevation of the bracket, and
Fig. 4, a section of the rod and bracket on line 4 4: of Fig. 2.
Like reference characters indicate like parts throughout the views.
My bracket is cut from a strip of resilient thin sheet metal and the resultant flat blank is bent up into final form. In detail it comprises an oblong base 6 provided at each end with enlargements 7 having perforations 9 to admit attaching screws 10. Upon one lateral edge of the base is an integral arm 12 of fiat material twisted into spiral c011- volutions 14 having edges 15. The arm 12 is disposed at right angles to the base.
Any usual form of tubular curtain rod 18, either telescoping or integral, and either split or unsplit, may be employed. The edges 15 of the resilient convolute arm 12 are a snug fit in the rod. Furthermore the spiral arrangement of the edges 15 which everywhere are in contact with the rod afford a much greater proportionate bearing area than is present in an unbent arm and insures a firm and noiseless fit. The structure bends itselt'to formation from a single struck blank by bending so that no substantial expense is involved in its manufacture. The one piece construction affords also a maximum of strength.
I claim 1. The combination with a curtain rod, of a bracket comprising a base, and an arm on the base comprising turns engageable with the interior of the rod through the inner circumference.
2. The combination with a curtain rod, of a bracket comprising a base, and a lateral arm integral with the base and disposed at right angles to the base comprising turns or twists whereby the arm engages the rod through the inner circumference.
3. The combination with a tubular curtain rod, of a bracket comprising an oblong base, and a flat twisted arm integral with one side edge of the base comprising turns adapted to engage the rod throughout substantially 860 degrees.
In testimony whereof I have afiixed my signature.
GEORGE H. SMITH.
