END SHOE FOR CURTAIN HOLDERS AND THE LIKE Filed Dec. 21, 1933 INVENTOR: JIM- Q 3"ae/rl1er.
Patented Mar. 12, 1935 I f I a UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE" END-SHOE FOR- CURTAIN-HOLDERS AND THE LIKE Maria Faerber, New'York', N. Q Application December 21, 1933, Serial No. 703,395 3 Claims. (01; 2123- -38) In housecleaning and room-decorating work, those shown'in the Figs. 1 and 2 respectively, it is generally found to be rather cumbersome but provided at their open sleeve-ends with a work, to fix thehemstitch oi laundered ornew longitudinal slot, such as that provided on the window-curtains or the like on the curta1n-hold endshoes according to the Figures 5 to 8.

From this broader end lying onpthe ground oron a'table, must'go up 12 the shoe tapersas at 13, and preferably it to the curtaineholder, which is held in a horiendsin a rounded knob or head 14. The shoe zontal position higher up, and when accordof this construction, when fixed to the curtain- 15 ingly. thereto the curtain must go round the holder, will easily enter into the hemstitch of sharp. end-corner of the holder, in order toube a curtain, even if the. latter consists offine filed. on the: holder. laces. The operation of 'liling the end-shoeand ,vIn order toovercome, this inconvenience, I subsequentlythewhole ledge 11 of the curtain v devised, a new and improved end-shoe for the holder intoia hemstitch of. a curtain is still more a 20 curtain-holder. The. object of this new and facilitated, by having the tapered ,neck-ipartelii. improved article is to facilitate the work of of the shoe slightly curved downwardly, as indislipping the hemstitch of the curtain over the cated'in Fig. 1, because such construction meets I sharp end-edges of the curtain-holder.

Another object of on the horizontal curtain-holder. the invention is to provide an exchangeable end- The embodiment shown in the Fig. 2 is esshoe for curtain-holders, which maybe fixed to sentially of the same construction as that of 30 or removed from the curtain-holder at will, so the first example, the difference being only, that that one single end-shoe may be used for hanon the end of a curtain-holder 16 of circular dling quite a number of curtains to be slipped cross-section is slipped over the tubular open over their respective curtain-holders, whereafter end 17 of the end-shoe, which is followed by the end-shoe may be taken off and stored away, the tapered and downwardly bent neck, 18, and 35 In certain cases,however, the end-shoes accordthe ball-shaped head 19. 7 ing to the invention, may be given a somewhat Whereas in the before described constructions more refined artistic appearance, so that it can the curtain-holder may be a solid piece of metal be t permanently on the end of the curtainor wood, the modifications shown in the Figs. 3 holder to form a decorative ending for the latnd, 4 are particularly adapted for hollow cur- 40 a s tian-holders of rectangular or tubular cross- In the drawlflgi I P shown m embodr section 20, 21, which are preferably made out of ments of my mvPntlon" whelfeby j 1 15 an sheet-metal.

tain-holders respectively;
Figs. 5 to 8 are difierent views of a ourtain- The embodiment aficolding the Figs; 5 holder and an end-shoe, which are modifications 815 Similar to t o the first example, n s f r, of th b di t ha in Fj g 1 as over a curtain-holder 26 of rectangular cross- 5 Figs. 9 and 10 are endshoes of the type of section will be slipped an end-shoe, the open end g of which 27 is formed like a rectangular clamp 27 with slightly rounded shorter sides, and with a longitudinal slot 29 on its one longer side, providing thus greater elasticity to match the end of the curtain-holder. The other end of the shoe changes in its shape into a more rounded form. This knob end 28 however is completely closed, so as to offer no sharp edges or points to the hemstitch to he slipped on it, and furthermore it is slightly bent down, so as to correspond better to the not yet filed vertically depending part of the hemstitch to be slipped on it.
The Figures 9 and 10 in the drawing finally show the two endshoes 30, 31, which correspond to those, shown in the Figures 1 and 2 respectively, except for the additional feature, that the open sleeve-like ends of them are provided with longitudinal slots 32, such as provided in the embodiment according to Figures 5 to 8, and for the same purpose of giving to the sleeveparts greater elasticity and resiliency for slipping the endshoe on the curtain-holder.
It is understood, that the invention is not restricted to the embodiments described before and illustrated in the drawing. As to the material from which the end-shoe according to the invention may be made, I reserve the right to choose, whichever material fits best each particular case of the application: In one case, perhaps sheet-metal being the best, in other cases celluloid, in others again a solid construction of wood or of bakelite. If the end-shoe is made removable, to be united only temporarily to the curtaimholder, then one single end-shoe can be used, as the tool to fix a number of different curtains to their respective curtain-holders. On the other side, if the end-shoe is left permanently on the curtain-holder as a decorative element, then'it may be painted in colors to increase the decorative efiect.
1. Device for slipping hemstitched curtains, draperies or the like over their holders, comprising: a body-part, the one end of which forms a lengthwise sleeve, adapted to be slipped over and to be fixed to the curtain-holder; a closed and rounded smaller knob or head-part opposite to the open end of the body-part; and a tapered horn-shaped and downwardly bent neckpart, connecting the body-part with the head or end-part and changing as to its cross-section and contours smoothly from the size of the body-part to the size of the knob or head-part, so as to facilitate the slipping of the device into the hemstitch of the curtain or the like.
2. Device for slipping hemstitched curtains, draperies or the like over their holders, comprising: a body-part, the one end of which is shaped to form a longitudinal continuation of the holder and adapted to be fixed on this holder; an approximately ball-shaped head-part, the centre of which is situated at the side of the axis of the body-part; and a neck-part connecting the body-part and the head-part and changing in its contours smoothly from the shape of the body-part to the shape of the head-part.
3. Device for slipping hemstitched curtains, draperies or the like over their holders, comprising: a body-part having a sleeve-like one end adapted to the shape of the holder and to be slipped over the holder-end, this end-sleeve of the body-part having one wedge-like narrowing longitudinal slot; an approximately ball-shaped head-part, the centre of which is situated at the side of the axis of the body-part; and a neckpart connecting the body-part with the headpart and changing in its contours smoothly from the shape of the body-part to the shape of the head-part.
