Description

July 5, TOELLE BRACKET FOR CURTAIN RODS Filed Jan. 21, 1931 ATTORNEY Patented July 5, 1932 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE WALTER I-I. TOELLE, 0F WALLINGFORD, CONNECTICUT, ASSIGNOR TO H. L. JUDD GOM- PANY, INC., 015 NEW YORK, N. Y.,
A CORPORATION OF DELAWARE BRACKET FOR CURTAIN RODS Application filed January 21, 1931. Serial No. 510,200.
My invention relates to a bracket for curtain rods, particularly, but not exclusively, adaipted for intermediate supports for such r0 s.
It is the principal object of the present invention to provide a new and improved bracket for curtain rods which is cheap to manufacture, serviceable in use, easy to apply, having comparatively few parts, and which will securely hold the curtain rod.
It is a further object of the invention to provide a bracket of such form that the bracket can be attached to or detached fro-m the curtain rod without removing the curtain rod from its other supports. Other objects and features of the invention will be pointed out or will become apparent upon a reading of the specification.
In the drawing which shows, for illustrative purposes only, a preferred form of the invention- Fig. 1 is a plan view of a curtain rod which is supported at the center by a bracket which embodies features of my invention;
Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the bracket shown in Fig. 1, the curtain rod being shown in section;
Fig. 3 is a bottom view of the bracket shown in Figs. 1 and 2;
In said illustrative drawing, 10 represents a curtain rod having end supports 10 and 10 of my own or any other construction. My invention is shown embodied in an intermediate support. In such intermediate support, 11 represents a bracket member having at its outer end an outwardly facing jaw 12, which conforms to the shape of the exterior of the curtain rod at the edge nearest to the supporting wall. The member 11 has a slot 13 therein and is attached to the wall or other support by means of a screw 14. 15 is a member which has at its outer end an inwardly facing jaw 16, which conforms to the shape of the exterior of the curtain rod at the edge remote from the supporting wall. 17 is a double headed rivet, which passes through a hole in the member 15 and through the slot 13 in the member 11, so that the members 11 and 15 are slidably connected to each other.
The member 14 is first attached to the supporting wall by screw 14. When the rod 10 is to be attached the member 15, being then free, is extended to the limit of extension permitted by the slot 13, thereby separating the jaws 12-16. The rod 10 is then placed between said jaws and the jaw 16 is moved inwardly so as to embrace said rod. This brings the inner end of the member 15 close to the supporting wall. A screw 18 is then applied and the section 15 is rigidly secured to the supporting wall so as to not only hold the jaws firmly in the rod-clamping position, but also to supplement the section 13 in the su porting rod.
hile the invention has been described in considerable detail and a specific form embodied in an intermediate support has been shown in the drawing, it is to be understood that the invention may be otherwise embodied and employed in connection with brackets for curtain rods and the like of various types other than herein shown.
I claim: 1. A bracket for curtain rods, said bracket comprising two members each adapted to be fixed to a wall and each having a rod-engaging jaw, said jaws being adapted to embrace a curtain rod. one of said members being longitudinally slidable on the other, whereby said slidable member may be moved to and fro after the other member is secured to the wall to permit a rod to be inserted or removed from between said jaws, and means to secure said slidable member to a supporting wall to so position said member as to hold the jaw thereon in rod clamping position with relation to the jaw on the other member.
2. A bracket for curtain rods comprising, one member adapted to be secured directly to a wall and having a jaw to coact with the rear portion of a curtain rod, a second member adapted to be secured directly to a wall and having a jaw to coact with the front portion of a curtain rod, said members being movably connected to each other to open and close said jaws, and means to both secure said second member to a wall and to move and hold its clamping jaw in clamping position.
