WINDOW-SHADE MARKER.
' Application filed October 13, 1927. Serial No. 225,920.
My invention relates to window shades, and more'particularly to means for marking an article such as a shade having a hem or loop, and the method of attaching said means to the article, the principal object of the invention being to provide in oneelement removable means conspicuously marking the article and relatively permanent hidden identifying means that may be rendered visible when desired. A further object is to provide means for identifying the origin, description and character of a shade that will be connected, and protected from deterioration and obliteration.
In accomplishing these and other objects of the invention I have provided animproved method and improved details of structure for employing the method, the preferred forms of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein:
Fig. 1 is an elevation of a shade to which a marker constructed in accordance with my invention is attached by my improved method, the removable element of the marker being alone visible.
Fig. 2 illustrates the complete marker.
Fig. 3 isa perspective view of a portion of the shade to which the marker is attached, showing the removable element in semidetached position. I
Fig. 4. is a similar view of a shade portion showing the shade hem partly displaced to better illustrate the position of the normally 7 hidden element of the marker.
Referring in detail to the drawings: 1 designates a shade comprising a web 2 having a tubular 100 or pocket 3 to receive a rod or stick for sti ening and for operation of the shade, formed by folding the end of the web on itself to provide a relatively narrow hem 4, then folding the hemmed end on the web to provide the tubular channel or Y a hem.
loop, the edge of the loop being attached to the web by stitches 5 that engage the edge of the loop with the web adjacent both edges of the hem, the stitches preferably extending transversely of the hem and in zigzag position diagonally thereacross. The loop I described provides aborder or binding, and represents any type of edge finishing such as I provide'for marking the shade, a marker 6 formed of paper or other suitable material, comprising a removable upper portion or member 7 and a permanent lower portion 8,
the marker being adapted for transverse division and separation of the members b means 9, such as scoring or the illustrated perforations. The lower or permanent member 8 is adapted for concealed position within the tubular loop, and its vertical dimension is substantially equal to the width of the loop so that when the marker is installed on a shade, preferably adjacent one end of the loop, the upper margin or edge of the member 8, and therefore the series of perforations 9, is registered with the inner margin of the loop or, in other words, the outer edge of the hem; and the upper member 7 is exposed for visibility above the loop and outside of the same.
Themarker is preferably installed in position prior to the stitching of the edge of the loop to the web, and is attached to the web by the stitches 5 that secure the loop edge In employing the invention, the marker is provided as described and installed in association with the shade by the method mentioned, the upper member being visible and the lower member hidden. The upper member is adapted by reason of its visibility and the informative material with which it is provided, for disclosing the origin, description and character of the shade during the period of distribution and merchandising of the same. WVhentheshade is sold orotherwise transferred for use, the upper and display member is no longer necessary, its presence is undesirable, and it may be conveniently and easily removed from the shade by severing it from the lower member along the series of perforations. The lower member remains, however, in secure engagement with the shade, but concealed so that it does not mar the appearance of the article.
.The folds of the loop'in which the member is positioned and secured preserve the integrity of the member, and protect its sub stance, and the display material with which it is provided, from the deteriorating effects oflight, heat, vapors, etc, which the shade is designed and provided to receive and resist.
W hen in the course of time or because of circumstances it becomes desirable to replace the shade, the end portion of the loop may be torn away from the web by removal of the threads orseverance thereof, to disclose the identifying member, which will be found unimpaired and its legend legible, for instructions towards obtaining a duplicate thereof,
or a shadeof similar type or character made bythe manufacture of the'des'ignated shade.
One of the troublesomeproblems of the householder is therefore so ved for him, time otherwise expended in search for like shades, or in effort to identify the origin of the shade, is saved andthe householder avoids delay and annoyance. 7
-The ripped edge of the loop may be restored if desired, by replacement of the extracted threads, or installation of other threads inthestitch holes.
The concealed identifying member exposed by displacement of the loop portion and removal or severance of the threads, may be removed from the shade, and ca ricd away as an informative notation.
-.The provision of the two display members in one element, attached at one location to the shade, and by means used to construct the shade, obviates the necessity for any marks on the web or loop, or any stitches or other means of attaching a marker that Would be detrimental to the appearance or desirability of the article, or would involve additional labor and expense in assembly.
What I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. A marker of the character described including, in combination with an article to be marked having ahem, a marker strip having body sndseverable tab portions both bearing identifying indicia, the body portion being secured to the article to be marked within the hem with the tab portion exposed exteriorly of the hem with the line of severance adjacent the hem.
2. In combination with an article to be marked, having a hem, a marker strip inclu iing a body portion located within the hem and secured thereto by the hem stitches, and .a tab exposed eXteriorly of the hem and separated from said body portion by a line of perforations, the body and tab portions of the marker bearing corresponding indicia for identifying the article to be marked.
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature.
ROBERT M. lilAXWELL.
