Fi ure 7 is a view similar to Figure but showing a modified construction wherein only one loop of the curtain body is provided This invention relates to draperies, and particularly to an improved curtain heading, the object being to provide an improved construction wherein the curtain may be prop- 5 erly supported and at the same time present uniform, evenly-spaced folds or gatherings. .Another object of the invention is to provide a curtain heading wherein a plurality of passageways are provided for the rod,
tape or other support, the passageways being arranged to either support the curtain in a flat osition or in a gathered position.
An additional object is to provide a curtain heading wherein theupper part of the ourtain is turned over and stitched in place, together with a tape formed with spaced openings through which a rod or other support is adapted to pass when the heading is to be 2 gathered.
to provide a heading for curtains wherein the curtain is turned over at the upper end an formed with a short hem or with one or more loops in association with a rod receivi tape formed of ordinary closely woven fa ric or of a braided strip. 1
In the accompanying drawings- Figure 1 is an elevation of a headin for urtains disclosing an embodiment o the invention, the same tion with a supporting rod,
Figure 2 is a sectional view through Figure 1, approximately'on the line 2-2, the 1 how the'supporting rod is same illustrating threaded through the supporting tape on the rear of the curtain body;
Figure 3 is a view similar to Figure 2 but showing how loops or gatherings are formed atspaced intervals when the curtain has been moved longitudinally oi the supporting rod a certain distance;
Figure 4 is an enlar d fragmentary elevation showin part 0 the curtainheading illustrated in igure 1;
Figure ,5 is a sectional ure 4 on the line 55;
' Fi re 6 is a view similar to Fi re 5 but showing a tightly woven piece of abric acting as a gi ec'e of tape instead of the braid shown in igure 4;
A still further object, more specifically, is
being shown in connecview through Figand be automatically very pleasing manner.
' Figure 8 is a modified form to that shown in Figures 5 and 7, the'structure illustrating a hem on the upper end of the curtain b with a supporting tape associated therewith.
Referring to the. accomp sired kind the same bein rod 2 of any desired kin dent that cords or other sup anying drawings by numerals, 1 indicates-a curtain of any'desupported on a It will be eviports may be prood. 2, if desired. 4 and 5 the cur 3 (Figure 5) and is stitched at 4 and 5 whereby two supporting loops are 6 and 7 A tape 8 is held in place ings 4 and 5 so that there is loop ,9 through which the r b presente od presented having passageways stitcha third 2 may extend. 7
It will be understood that the tape 8 is on the d reverse side of the curtain s be seen from the room.
ures 1 and 4, the tape structure illustrated in 8 formed as ordinary 0 that it will not As illustrated in Fig- 8 is braid while the Figure 6 shows a tape 7 fabric provided with a number of s aced apertures 10. These apertures have t eir edges able way as, for instance, In the braid shown points 11 some of the yarns providing I When the rod 2 is tion shown in Figure substantiall However, i

8 at the various are omitted, thus d short sections threaded into the posi- 1 the curtain will hang flat as illustrated in Figure 2. it is desired to have gatherings in'the curtain the same may be brought to the position shown are brought together,-
in Figure 3, wherein suitable gatherings or loops 14 are presented. 9 These are equally spaced apart ve ends 15 and are caused and 16 thus causing the portion 17 between these ends to bulge outwardly apart, thus causing the fitted into assageways mu't be ta en in producing hand when spaced equal distances curtain to hang in a Where the rod 2 is 6 and 7 great care these s as orm- ing the loops or gatherings. It will be readily understood that the supporting rod 2 can be arranged in the passageways 6 or 7 or 9 as preferred. Also, if the curtain is to remain flat,-usually the rod 2 is passed beneath all of the sections 12 and 13 instead of being arranged as shown in Figures 1 and 2.
As shown in Fi ure 7 the passageway 18 is provided forme b a single told 19, and the tape 8 is arrange completely below the a fold 9. In Figure 8 there is only a slight hem 20 and the tape 8 is arranged completely below this hem except that part which is held in place by the stitching 21. In all of these forms,- as well as in the preferred form, the
1 braid or ta e8 is arranged at the rear of the.
curtain ha y and as the braid is ver flexible the curtain body may be gathere or left straight as desired.
The division of the sections 12 and 13, as shown in Figures 1 and 4, permits of quick gathering of the curtain with uniform tucks or gatherings. The same is true of the structu're shown in Figure 6.
When the curtain bod 1 is of lace or other light material, a double old, as shown in F igure 5, is desirable as the curtain head is then substantially hidden and yet the curtain is supported in a very pleaslng manner. The
a so portion forming the passageway 6 will read- 11y gathered alon the remaining part of the curtain sothat t the curtain. as I claim:
1.. A curtain heading com risi a looped formation at the up r en of the curtain presentinga, pair 0 aligned passageways, a tape superposed on one of said passageways presenting a third assageway, and a line of stitching at each e ge of said tape extendin 7 through the tape, the curtain body and sai loope formation. 1
2. A curtain heading including a supporting rod receiving tape positioned longitudinally at the rear of the curtain near the upper end, said tape being spaced from the upper edge and provided with spaced apertures, said apertures being arranged in tain apertures than others whereby the curgroups with a greater distance between cerbination the upper en of a curtain, a flex ible braid arranged at the back of the upper end of the curtain, a line of stitching at each edge of the braid for permanently connecting the braid to the curtain, said braid being formed with spaced groups of openings having substantially parallel yarns filling the space between the openings, and a closed 1 formation braided structure at each edge for receiving said lines of stitching.
