YINVENTOR ertflalfoiz -76, A NEY Patented Dec. 31, 1929 PATENT OFFICE HUBER! DALTON, Z5 STAMFORD, CONNECTICUT CURTAIN HOLDER Application filed July 9,
This invention relates to devices for holding curtains back from window frames and the like to give the admission to light and air.
An object of the invention is to provide a curtain holder which is of simple construction and can be made at low cost; and is designed to be mounted upon the frame and so secured at one end that it can be readily put into operative poistion or moved out of way when not needed.
These and other objects and advantages of the invention will be made clear from the following description taken with the drawings on which one embodiment of my invention is illustrated. But the disclosure herein is of course explanatory only and the device actually shown may be altered in practice to the full extent indicated by the broad and general meaning of the terms in which the appended claims are expressed.
On the drawings,- Figure 1 is a perspective view of a curtain holder according to my invention, mounted at the side of a window; Fig. 2 is a top view of tive position;
Fig. 3 is a side view thereof;
Fig. 4 is a section on line 4 l, Fig. 3; and
Fig. 5 is a side view showing the parts out of position when one desires to release the curtain.
The same numerals identify the same parts throughout.
On the drawing, a
the holder in operawindow frame is shown at 1 with a bar 2 at the top to support curtains, one of which appears at 3. The curtain holder comprises an arm l, one end of which is bent as at 5; the other end is at- 49 ta'ched to a bracket 6 by means of a rivet 7, and this end is provided with a. slot 8 through which the rivet extends, so that the arm may not only be tilted up and down on this rivet but also move lengthwise as far as the slot 8 permits. The bracket 6 has an out-turned end 9, to enable it to be aflixed to the frame 1.
I also provide on the bracket 6 on its upper edge, adjacent the base or end 9, a shoulder 10, and this shoulder has a lateral projection 11, extending away from the base 9 and over 1928. Serial No. 291,424.
the adjacent end the arm or bar 4 has in its two opposite sides recesses or notches 12. The head of the rivet which engages the bar t is enlarged as shown at 13 so as to of the slot 8.
In practice when the curtain holder bar is to be secured in operative or braced position, it is manipulated to push the end having the recesses 12 under the lug 11. The outer end of the bar will thentend to sink of its own weight, moving the upper recess 12 so that the lug 11 enters it. Hence the bar is not only maintained substantially horizontal but cannot be pulled outward with respect to the bracket. If the bracket with the bar in this position is now made fast to one side of a door or window frame the curtain or drapery attached to the top of the frame can be hung over the bar so as not to obstruct the opening through the frame. The end 5 is turned away from the opening so that the curtain or drapery can not slip over the bar 4.
If the holder is not needed, one only needs to lift the outer end to disengage the upper recess 12 from the lug or stop 11. The arm can then be pulled outward, the rivet 7 permitting the arm to slide because of the slot 8 and as soon as the adjacent end clears the stop 11, the arm 4 can drop to vertical position at the side of the door frame and be supported by the rivet until it is again required for use. The bar 1 is reversible, that is, because of the two recesses 12 the bar 4 can be mounted to work on the bracket 6 for the opposite side of the frame 1, by turning it to make the end 5 point the other way and then riveting the bar in place.
The construction of the holder is therefore exceedingly simple and can easily and cheaply be made in large quantities for domestic and other use. Any occupant of a home or any other building can easily mount it in the required manner by tacks or other fastening devices 14: driven through openings in the base 9.
I claim:
1. A curtain holder comprising a bracket with a laterally projecting attaching plate to be attached to a support, an arm and a pivot be bigger than the widthof the arm 4. This end of for securing the arm and the bracket together, said arm and pivot being on the side of the bracket opposite to that from which the attaching plate projects, the part of said arm engaged by said pivot being slotted, the bracket having a stop above the arm adjacent the slot and said arm having recesses in its opposite sides and in proximity to the slot, one of said recesses being adapted to be engaged with said stop to hold the arm in operative position, the arm being disengageable from the stop by lifting it to rotate it around said pivot, and then being capable of withdrawal because of the slotted portion to move the recess clear of said stop and enable the arm to swing downward to inoperative position along the side of said bracket opposite to that from which the attaching plate projects, the recesses making the arm capable of being turned about its longitudinal axis to present either side of the arm to said bracket before it is secured by the pivot thereto.
In a curtain holder, consisting of two connected plates one comprising an attaching plate adapted to be attached to a window casing, the other comprising a holding plate which projects from one edge of the attaching plate and at right angles to the attaching plate, said holding plate provided with a shoulder and a vertical stop piece extending downwardly from the shoulder and laterally well beyond the side face of the holding plate opposite to the side face from which the attaching plate extends and lying in a plane parallel to the plane of the attaching plate, an arm and a pivot stud for securing the arm and holding plate together, said arm having an abutment portion extending along and parallel to that side face of the holding plate beyond which the stop piece extends and below said shoulder in position to abut on the underneath edge of the stop piece whereby to be sustained alongside the holding plate on the side thereof opposite to said attaching plate.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my invention, I have signed my name hereto.
