Dec. 18, 1934. w. s. PICKETT- WINDOW SHADE RAISING DEVICE Filed April 16, 1954 E.1'.E=.l- 35:15.3.
/6 /7 INVENTOR. WARREN s. PICKETT ATTORNEYS Patented Dec. 18, 1934 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 1,985,105 WINDOW SHADE RAISING DEVICE Warren S. Pickett, Santa Clara, Calif.
Application April 16, 1934, Serial No. 720,900 r 2 Claims.
This invention relates to improvements in ourtain fixtures and has particular reference to a slidable bracket for supporting window shades at any desired point.
The principal object is to provide a shade roller bracket for swinging windows whereby the shade may be moved with respect to the window pane for the purpose of washing, painting, etc.
A further object is to produce a device which is simple to operate and one which may be readily adjusted.
A still further object is to produce a device which is economical to manufacture.
Other objects and advantages will be apparent during the course of the following description.
In the accompanying drawing forming a part of this specification and in which like numerals are employed to designate like parts throughout the same,
Fig. 1 is a front elevation of a window having my invention applied thereto,
Fig. 2 is a side elevation of Fig. 1, v
Fig. 3 is a side elevation of one of the brackets,
Fig. 4 is a side elevation of the other of the brackets,
Fig. 5 is an enlarged end elevation of one of the brackets,
Fig. 6 is an enlarged fragmentary detail view showing the manner in which the bracket supports the end of the shade and roller, and
Fig. 7 is a fragmentary perspective view of the bracket supporting track.
It has been customary to mount window shades directly against the bottom of the window sash and consequently when the windows are cleaned, the shade must be removed or else the bottom portion of the glass cannot be properly washed, and also the shade is liable to become soiled in the washing operation. Applicant has, therefore, devised a simple bracket whereby the shade may be moved along the edge of the window so as to expose any portion of the pane.
In the accompanying drawing wherein for the purpose of illustration is shown a preferred embodiment of my invention, the numerals 5 and 6 designate the upper and lower window panes of swinging type sash windows, the frames being designated by the numerals '7 and 8. As the mounting on both window sashes are identical, but one will be described. Referring to the sash 8, it will be noted that parallel tracks 9 and 11 are secured to the vertical sides of the sash and by viewing Figs. 6 and 7 it will be noted thatthese tracks have inturned edges 12 and 13 and a central raised portion 14. This construction forms channels 16 and 17 and it will be here noted that ends of the shade roller A.
By viewing Fig. 5 it will be noted that the so as to provide a V-portion 22 having its legs bentl as shown at 23 and 24. Therefore, these portions 23 and 24 will slide in the channels 16 and 17. The portion 24 has a pin 26 extending therefrom, which is capable of engaging holes 2'7 formed in one side of the tracks (see Fig. '7).
The manner of using my device is as follows:-
The tracks are first placed upon the window frames parallel to each other and secured in this position. A bracket is mounted in each of the tracks and a shade roller positioned therebetween. By now squeezing the brackets so as to release the pins 26 from the holes 27, the shade may be moved up or down with relation to the bottom of the window and after being properly adjusted release of the brackets will cause the pins 26 to engage the openings 27, thus holding the shade .in adjusted position.
It is to be understood that the form of my invention herewith shown and described is to be taken as a preferred example of the same and that various changes relative to the material, size, shape and arrangement of parts may be resorted to without departing from the spirit of the invention or the scope of the subjoined claims.
Having thus described myinvention, I claim:-
1; In a device of the character described, the combination with a' track mounted upon a side of a window, a movable bracket mounted in said track adapted to support an end of a shade roller, means for adjusting the position of said bracket in said track, said means including a removable pin extending through said track and into said bracket.
2. In a device of the character described, a track secured to a window frame, said track be,- ing parallel to a similar track, said track having channels formed therein, a bracket having feet of approximate uniform width mounted in the respective channels of said track and slidable in said channels, one of said channels being wider than the other whereby said bracketmay be disengaged from said channel for the purpose of adjusting said bracket longitudinally of said channel. 1
