CURTAIN. I
Application filedrep'tember 15, 1921. j SerialNo. 500,750,
curtains of the above character which when incorporated with the structure of a screened inclosed porch, or the like, will have a neat appearance.
It is also an object of the invention that the curtains be durable and easy to manipulate for lowering and raising the same.
Other objects will hereinafter appear.
The invention is illustrated by way of example in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a perspective view illustrating 25 the application of the present invention,
Figure 2 is a vertical sectional view illustrating the curtains when in their closed positions,
Figures 3 and 4 are views similar to Figure 2, but illustrating the curtains when fully opened, and when partially open, respectively,
Figure 5 is a detail sectional view taken substanti ally on line .5-5 of Figure 6,
Figure 6 is a detail section view illustrating the manner in which the opposing cleats oit' a pair o'l curtains may be brought to` gether.
Referring to the drawings more particu.- larly, 10 indicates generally the floor of the porch of the inclosed type and 11 the side walls thereof. The walls 11 are provided with the usual window openings extending the entire length thereof. In the present r instance, these openings are formed by the top and bottom studdings 12 and 13 respectively and the vertical studdings 14. Also a casing strip 15'is secured upon the inner edge of each studding 14. The edge 5 portions 16 of the strips 15 extend beyond the sides of the studdings 14 for a purpose which will later appear.
Suitable screening l1'? `is secured to thev 'outer edges of the studs 14 by the means lotlaths indicated at 18. To each side ot the studs 14, and extending the entire length thereoffthere is formed a flange or strip 19 which isspaced from the casing stripv 15, as shown in Figure 5, said strips '19 iorn'iing in conjunction with the casing` strip 15 a. guideway 20 upon each side'of the stud 14. lt may be here mentioned lthat lthe corner studs 14 would have but .one strip 19, the reason oi whichv willla-ter become apparent.A
Between each pair otstuds y14 there is secured to the top and bottom studs 12 and.
l13, respectively, a sill strip'20. To each strip 20" there is secured the one end of a curtain section 21, said sections when fully extended being adapted to form a closure for the window opening with which they i are associated.
The curtain Vsections 21 may be referred to as an upper curtain section 21 and a lower curtain section 21. Upon the other end of each curtain there ,issecured a cross Slat 22, said slats being preferably vsecured by the means o1 the lath 23 and brads 24,`
l slat 272 `of the lower curtain section, as shown in Figure 1, and secure together the two curtain sections. Also each curtain section is' providedwith an additional pair of cross slats as indicated at 27 which are likewise provided with suitable offsets similar to the o13r`set25 of the cross slats 22 so that the same may slide within the guideways 20.
The cross slats 27 are secured to the curtain sections in the mannerr described for securing the cross slats 22.
Upon each end or the cross slats 22 there f is positioned a friction catch generally indicated by the reference numeral 28. Each friction catch comprises the pair of bearing members 29 which` are suitably secured to the cross slats 22, anda stem 30 slidable through said bearings. A compression spring 31 encircles the stemsand has its one end secured thereto and ,is disposedl Vner the cross slats 22 may be held in any position desired.
It is believed from the .foregoing 1description that the advantages of the present invention can be clearly understood. As s eenby Figures 27 3 and 4l of lthe drawings Vthe curtain sections may be moved into position for fully closing the window openings ,with Which they are associated, or they ni'ay be inoved iny positions for `partially closing such Window openings. When in the positions ,as shoivn in Figures 3 and 4:,
.the friction catches 28 will hold the cross Islats 22 against movement in the gnideways Q0, `These 'friction catches will also `hold the cross slats 22 in position lvhen the cur- `tains are fully closed, and the hook 26 inerecooperate Iwith ythe ly provides means whereby the curtain sections may be locked against upward or downward movement.
`While I have shoivn and described the preferred form of myinventinit'is to be understood that I am aware of the fact that. Athe construction, combination and arrange- Inentuo'f npartsinlay''be changed by those skilled in the art Without departing from the spirit of my invention, as indicated by theappended claim.
claim:
