The resilient fingers of theretaining pin 43 can be pinched inwardly toward each other when theattachment end 42 of theliner hook 40 is inserted in thehole 38 of thehook support projection 37. In the embodiment shown inFIGS. 3-12 , theliner hook 40 is rotatably mounted in thehook support projection 37 of therear ring 30. As most clearly shown inFIGS. 6 and 12 , theliner hook 40 can rotate around a vertical axis from the extended position shown inFIG. 6 to a flattened position shown inFIG. 12 in which thehook 40 lies in a plane that is substantially parallel with a plane defined by therear face 32 of therear ring 30. The flattened or stowed positions of thehooks 40 facilitates packaging, storage and transportation of thegrommets 10 and curtains 5. Alternatively, a non-rotatable or stationary liner hook may be used, or the liner hook may be eliminated as described below. -
FIGS. 13 and 14 illustrate an embodiment of a split curtain grommet 110 without a liner hook. Thesplit curtain grommet 110 may be similar to thesplit curtain grommet 10 shown inFIGS. 3-12 , except thehook support projection 37 andliner hook 40 are eliminated. - The
grommet 10 may be relatively large in size and itsupper split 12 or gap may be aligned with thesplit 6 or gap in a portion of the curtain 5 located at or above thegrommet 10. In the embodiments shown, thetop split 12 of thegrommet 10 typically has a slight gap, e.g., from 0.1 to 2 or 3 mm, or from 0.5 to 1 or 1.5 mm. However, any other suitable size gap may be used, or a slit may be provided in which the opposing slit faces contact each other. Thesplit 6 or cut in the curtain 5 above the gap or split 12 of thegrommet 10 may be made by any suitable means such as scissors, knives, laser cutting and the like. The fabric may be heat sealed, or may be sewn or otherwise finished. - When the front and
rear rings grommet 10 are snapped together or otherwise attached to each other, only the exterior surfaces 21 and 31 may be visible after thegrommet 10 is installed on a curtain 5, i.e., the interior surfaces 22 and 32 may be hidden. - The front 20 and rear 30 rings of the
grommet 10 are attached to each other by inserting thepins 24 of thefront ring 20 into the correspondingholes 34 of therear ring 30. A snap-fit may be provided in which the front 20 and rear 30 rings of thegrommet 10 are secured together through contact between thepins 24 and corresponding circular holes 34. Althoughcylindrical pins 24 and holes 34 are shown in the figures, any other suitable shapes and configurations may be used in place of, or in addition to, thepins 24 and holes 34. For example, the pins and holes may be square, slots, arched sections or the like. - During installation of the
grommets 10 on a curtain 5, the curtain 5 may be cut to provide holes having diameters that are larger than the inner diameter of thegrommet 10 but smaller than the outer diameter of thegrommet 10. The curtain fabric thus does not extend into the interior circle of thegrommet 10, but may be clamped or otherwise secured between the front 20 and rear 30 rings of thegrommet 10. In certain embodiments, the curtain fabric extends radially inward of thepins 24 and holes 34 of thegrommet 10, and small holes, cuts or punctures may be provided in the fabric to allow thepins 24 to pass therethrough and engage with the circular holes 34. Such cuts made to the curtain fabric may be made by any suitable means, and may typically be made prior to installation of the front 20 and rear 30 rings of thegrommet 10 onto the curtain 5. - The
grommets 10 may be made of any suitable materials that are sufficiently flexible to allow thegrommet 10 to flex in order to be installed on arod 7, but which have sufficient structural integrity to retain the grommets on the rod under the weight of a curtain 5. For example, thegrommets 10 may be made of plastic, metalized plastic, or the like. - As used herein, “including,” “containing” and like terms are understood in the context of this application to be synonymous with “comprising” and are therefore open-ended and do not exclude the presence of additional undescribed or unrecited elements, materials, phases or method steps.
