UNETED STATES JOHN WILLIAM BUCK, F BIRMINGHAIJI, ALABAMA.
COMBINED SHADE AND CURTAIN HQLDER.
Application filed February 8, 1926.
My invention relates to an improvement in shade and curtain holders of the type which comprise a bracket member adapted for ready attachment to and detachment trom the window frame by the use of clamp means, in combination with adjustable shade and curtain supporting elements adj ustahly mounted on the bracket.
The chief objects of my present invention are to improve the desi n of the bracket member so that it can be made of light thin material so braced as to have the requisite strength for mounting it rigidly on the win dow frame and which will have the advantage of using the brace means for the bracket to serve as guides for the movable clamp member.
My invention further comprises the novel details of construction of the shade and curtain supports and the manner of their adjustable mounting upon the bracket. The manner of construction and method of operation of my invention will be better understood by reference to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification, and in which Fig. 1 is a perspective view of one of my combination shade and curtain supports.
Fig. 2 is a plan view of Fig. 1; and
Fig. 3 is an inside elevation illustrating more clearly the clamp braces and guides.
Similar reference numerals refer to similar parts throughout the drawings.
I have shown my invention applied to a window frame 1 and comprising a main bracket member 2 formed of a strip of sheet metal having its ends 3 and 4 bent in the same direction at right angles to its body with the end 4 provided with inturned serrated teeth 5. The end 3 is provided with a threaded opening to receive a screw 6 having a flattened end 7 adapted to be turned by hand and having its inner end rotatably mounted in a sliding clamp 8 which has'at its lower end inturned serrated teeth 9, corresponding to the teeth on the bracket end 4. The ends 3 and 4 are braced together by means of a pair of rods 10 which pass through slots or openings 11 provided for them in the sliding clamp 8 and thus serve as a guide for the latter. The main body portion of the bracket is provided with a longitudinal slot 12 extending the major portion of its length and adapted to receive the clamp screws 13 and 14 which respec- Scrial No. 86,749.
tively mount the shade support 15 and a curtain rod support 16 to the clamp plate 2. The shade support 15 has its bottom end 17 bent in so as to engage under the bottom of the bracket 2 and its upper end is bent out at right angles at 18 and notched to receive the pintles of the shade roller 19. The plate 16 is provided at top and bottom with flanges 20 which embrace snugly between them the bracket 2 and overhang inwardly beyond the bracket so that each of the lower flattened ends 21 of the curtain and drapery supporting rods 22 can be forced downwardly through holes in the overhung ends of said flanges 20 on the inside of the bracket 2 so that they are held securely in vertical position with out-turned upper ends 23 and 24: which are adapted respectively to support the inner curtain rod 25 and the outer curtain rod 26.
It is understood that thebracket 2 shown is adapted for right and left hand use and that to mount it in position it is only necessary to turn the screw 6 causing the sliding clamp member 8 to engage the window frame and firmly clamp the bracket in position on the same. The brace rods 10 permit light material to be used for stamping out the bracket member so that its front can, if desired, be made ornamental very cheaply and yet itcan be clamped with great strength and rigidity to the window frame. To adjust the shade and curtain supports it is only necessary to loosen up the screws 13 or 14; and slide the supports along the bracket to the desired position. It will be noted that the nuts 27, which are engaged by these screws, will work in the space between the back of the bracket and the brace rods 10.
Though I have described with great particularity the details of the embodiment of the invention herein shown, it is not to be construed that I am limited thereto, as changes in arrangement and substitution of equivalents may be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the invention as defined in the appended claims.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. A combination shade and curtain holder, comprising a bracket having parallel end flanges, brace means connecting said flanges at an intermediate point, one flange serving as a clamp element, a coacting clamp element slidably mounted on said brace means, a screw threaded in the other flange of the bracket and adapted to adjust said sliding clamp element to mount the bracket, and supporting means for curtains, shades and the like slidably mounted on said bracket.
2. A curtain and shade support, comprising a bracket formed of a sheet metal strip having its ends bent at right angles to its body portion, parallel brace rods spaced from said body portion of the bracket and connecting its bent ends, a clamp member perforated and mounted to slide only on said rods, a screw threaded in one end of the bracket and having a swivel engagement With said clamp element to slide same towards one end of the bracket and clamp the same to a support, and a frame mounted to slide on the bottom portion of the bracket and adapted to a-djustably mount curtain and shade supports on said bracket.
In testimony whereof I atlix my signature.
JOHN WVILLIAM BUCK.
