Description
Jan. 30, 1934. F. H. NAFTZGER WINDOW FIXTURE Filed June 27, 1931 IN V ENT OR. .Z/m @3 MZ/Z A TTORNEY A A 4 f f MM a 1 47M //4 i M M W #1 -Mu 1 m m Patented Jan. 30, 1934 STATES PATENT OFFICE 1 Claim.
My invention relates to decorative window fixtures and has as one of its objects to provide a new and improved cornice, or curtain rod cover, of the type which is extensibly adjustable to fit varying widths in windows.
With these and other objects in view, my invention consists in the construction, arrangement, and combination of the various parts of my device, whereby the objects contemplated are attained, as hereinafter more fully set forth, pointed out in my claim, and illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which:
Fig. 1 is a front elevation of the cornice, attached to a window,
Fig. 2 is a plan view of the same,
Fig. 3 is a rear elevation of the cornice,
Fig. 4 is a vertical central sectional view through the cornice and window casing,
Fig. 5 is a detail view of the cornice bracket.
The cornice comprises a pair of flat sheet metal plates 10 and 11, connected by what may be termed a buckle member 12. The latter is provided with a pair of straps 13, secured rigidly at theirs ends to the respective side edges of the buckle 12, and cooperating with the latter to form a pair of loops positioned near the respective ends of the buckle 12. These loops receive respectively, the intermediate portions of the plates 10, 11.
A stud 14, secured centrally to the buckle 12, projects through slots 15 in the respective plates 10, 11, positioned longitudinally in the overlapping regions of said plates, and the stud is threaded to receive a nut 16, serving to hold the plates 10, 11 in fixed relative positions.
It may be noted at this point that the plates 10, 11 are each provided with two longitudinally spaced attachments to the buckle 12, namely, the engagement with the loop 13, and the attachment to the stud 14. Consequently, each plate is laterally rigid with respect to the buckle, and the two plates are laterally rigid relative to each other.
The buckle 12 serves as a means for attaining the longitudinally slidable, laterally rigid, connection between the two plates, as a means for concealing the slidable connection between the plates, (the slots 15 are concealed at all times) and adds to the ornamental effect of the cornice. In this connection it may be noted that designs may be printed upon the cornice, and contrasting color effects may be employed with unusual decorative effects owing to the presence of the buckle.
The ends of the plates 10, 11 are formed with arms 17, bent transversely of the plates and terminating in flanges 18, projecting away from each other and parallel to the plates.
For supporting the cornice, I provide a pair of brackets such as shown in Fig. 5, each comprising a plate portion 23 to rest flatly against a window casing member 24, and secured thereto by screws 25 extending through openings 26 in said plate portion. The plate portion is bent back upon itself at one side to form the channel 27. The lower end of the latter is offset against the plate portion 23 as at 28 to form the bottom of the socket 29 which receives the flange 18 of the cornice.
The oppositely extending flanges of the cornice are received in the channels 27 and rest upon the offsets 28.
The curtains may be supported on rods concealed behind the cornice. They are indicated by the reference numeral 30.
The fixture may be instantly removed from its supporting sockets by simply lifting it upwardly.
The cornice serves to cover and conceal from view the curtain rods, blind rollers, etc.
Some changes may be made in the construction and arrangement of the parts of my invention without departing from the real spirit and purpose of my invention, and it is my intention to cover by my claim any modified forms of structure or use of mechanical equivalents which may be reasonably included within its scope.
I claim as my invention:
A decorative window cornice comprising a pair of plates positioned in overlapping arrangement and longitudinally aligned, said overlapping portions being slotted, and a buckle including a flat buckle member engaged against the front side of one of the plates, a threaded stud secured to said buckle member substantially midway of the ends thereof and received through both'of said slots, a nut threaded upon said stud and engaging the under side of one of the plates and loops formed on said buckle member and embracing the plates at a distance on either side of the stud.
FLORENCE I-IALE NAFTZGER.
