UNITED STATES HUBERT DALTON, OF STANFORD, CONNECTICUT.
CURTAIN HOLDER. l
Application tiled October 21, 1926. Serial No. 143,037.
This invention relates to curtain holders and has for its primary objectto provide a. simple and inexpensive device easily applicable to the window frame or casing whereby the curtains Vor other draperies may be held or supported in spaced relation to the window opening in case full ventilation is desired and to prevent Vthe curtains from being blown about and possibly soiled or otherwise damaged.
It is a more particular object of the invention to provide a device for this purpose which is so constructed, that it may be readily adjusted to operative or inoperative position relative to the window frame, and in the latter position thereof is inconspicuous and out of the way.
Vith the above Yand other objects in view, the invention consists in the improved curtain holder, and in the form, construction and relative 'arrangement of the several parts as will be hereinafter more fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings, and subsequently incorporated in the subjoined claims.
In the drawings, wherein I have disclosed several simple and practical embodiments of the invention, and in which similar reference characters designate corresponding parts throughout the several views,- Y
Figure 1.is a perspective view illustrating the manner of application of my improved curtain holder to the window frame;
Fig. 2 is a plan view of the device;
Fig. 3 is an enlarged side elevation;
Fig; l is an end elevation of the device in an operative position; l
Fig. 5 is a detail section taken on the line 5 5 of Fig. 3, and
Fig. 6 is a side elevation of the device in its inoperative position.
In thel embodiment of the invention which I have selected for purposes of illustration, a bracket plate 5 is fixed at its ends to each side of the. window frame or casing, said bracket plate extending vertically thereof and being preferably formed from a sheet metal stamping to provide a shallow longi- 1 tudinally extending channeled rib 6, the open side of which is opposed to the face of the window frame when said bracket plate is attached. At its lower end, this rib is formed with an enlargement or boss 7 having an end wall positioned at an angle with respect to the plane of the bracket plate and provided with an opening 8 therein, the purpose of which will be presently explained.
A' lug 9 is riveted or otherwise suitably fixed at one of its ends to the upper end of the rib 5 and is engaged in vone end tof a channel shaped curtain holding arm 10, said arm being pivot-ally connected to said 'lugby the rivet or stud 11. To the other end scribed, when itis desired to support the K curtain at one sidev ofV the window opening, the channeled arm 10 is disposed in a horizontal position with respect to the bracket plate 5 and the free end of the rod 12 is engaged through opening 8 at the lower end of said bracket as shown in Fig. 3 of the drawings. It willbe noted from reference to Fig. 2, that the pin 13 is of such length that it projects laterally from one side of the arm 10. Thus, after the curtain is draped over said arm as seen in Fig. 1 of the drawings, it cannot be blown inwardly beyond the arm and is also held or supported against being blown outwardly by air drafts through the window opening. In this manner the annoyance of the flapping curtain is obviated, and it is also protected against being soiled or otherwise damaged.
Ihen it is no lo-nger desired to use the device, the end of the rod 12 is disengaged from the opening 8 and said rod and arm 10 are permitted to swing downwardly from the lug 9 into alignment with each other. In this position of the parts, the boss 7 on the lower end of the bracket is received be- Y of the side walls of the arms l0 so that as shown in Fig. 6, the collapsed device rwill lie closely adjacent to the window frame and will therefore, be inconspicuous and unobtrusive.
I have herein disclosed an embodiment of the invention which I have found to be entirely practical and satisfactory for the purpose in view. It will be seen, that the device consists of relatively few parts of simple form and can therefore, be manufactured and sold at comparatively small cost. Since it is possible that the essential features of my present disclosure might also be embodied in various other alternative strue tures, I reserve the privilege of adopting all siicli legitimate changes in the torni, con'- struction and relative airangeii'ient ot the several parts as may be fairly incorporated within the spirit and scope ot' the'inventioii as Claimed.
I claiin:
l.V A curtain holder comprising an elongated bracket member adapted-to be vertically positioned upon one side ot a Window ltranjie and fixed thereto, said bracket menibei-Klieinfi` formed of sheet metal Wit-li a lon gitiidinally extending rib and at its lower end being' provided with an apertiii'ed boss ionstitiitiiigl :i socketa a curtain holding), iii-in pivoally coniiectednt one ot' its ends With the upper end ot said bracket plate, and a rod pivotallv connected at one end to the other end of said arm and adapted to be engaged at its tree end in .aid socket, to support said curtain holding arm in a substantially horizontal position with respect to the bracket plate.
2. ,A curtain holder comprising an elon- VWith a longitudinally extending rilo terminating at its lower end in a boss provided with an opening in the Wall thereof, a lng liXed to the upper end of said rilo7 a channel shaped arm pivotally connected at one ot' its ends with said lug, at rod pivotally coiinected at one of its ends to the other end of said arm and adapted tor engagement at its free end through said opening in the boss 'on the bracket plate to sustain said arm in a substantially horizontal position with rcspeet to the bracket plate, and the opposite side Walls of said iii-iii adjacent to its pivotal connection with said rod beine outwardly d istended to receive said boss when the arin and rod are moved to a collapsed inoperative position in substantial alignment ivi li each other.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as iny invention, I have signed my naine hereto.
