Definitions
- My invention relates to curtain -fixtures; and consists in a construction as follows:
- the curtain-roller is journaled in slides having laterally-flanged bases, which move vertically in metallic guides, eachformed in a single piece, and having opposite longitudinal sides, which overlap and inclose said flan ged bases, the upper extremities of said guides being formed with forwardly and downwardly curved hangers, which provide bearing for the journals of friction-pulleys respectively connected therewith.
- Jords fastened to eyes made in said slides pass over the pulleys and vertically adjust the curtaiu-roller.
- a cord engages with the latter to roll or unroll the curtain relatively laterally-flanged bases a.
- These slides have free vertically-reciprocating movement in the metallic guides B, which latter have their opposite longitudinal sides overlapping and inclosing the flanged bases of said slides.
- the guides are each formed in single piece, and have their guide-openings at right angles to the length of the curtain-roller. Within said guides the slides have movement in a vertical plane passing rearward of said ourtain-roller.
- Draw-cords D are fastened to eyes d, formed in the upper portion of each slide, in close proximity to the metallic guides, and thence pass upwardly over the friction-pulleys and downward.
- these two cords unite in a single cord, E, after their passage over the pulley, which is in vertical line with the cord-fastenin g knob.
- the cord F which serves to roll and unroll the curtain relatively to the curtain-roller, is suitably connected with the latter, so as to 1'0- tate the same.
- Cords E and F respectively pass through vertical thimblcs 9, formed on opposite sides and in single piece with the metallic "strip Gr. They then are fastened, as desired, to a knob, H, which is located at the lower extremity of said strip.
- the combination with slides which support a curtain-roller, and are formed with laterallyflanged bases, of metallic guides whose respective longitudinal sides overlap and inclose said bases, the upper extremities of the guides being curved forwardly and provided with friction-pulleys, substantially as set forth.

UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
HENRY H. MEADE, OF CORRY, PENNSYLVANIA.
IMPROVEMENT IN CURTAIN-FIXTURES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 215,233, dated May 13, 1879; application filed September 27, 1878.
To all whom it"may concern:
Be it known that I, HENRY H. MEADE, of Corry, in the county of Erie and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Curtain-Fixtures and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it pertains to make and use it, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form part of this specification.
My invention relates to curtain -fixtures; and consists in a construction as follows: The curtain-roller is journaled in slides having laterally-flanged bases, which move vertically in metallic guides, eachformed in a single piece, and having opposite longitudinal sides, which overlap and inclose said flan ged bases, the upper extremities of said guides being formed with forwardly and downwardly curved hangers, which provide bearing for the journals of friction-pulleys respectively connected therewith. (Jords fastened to eyes made in said slides pass over the pulleys and vertically adjust the curtaiu-roller. A cord engages with the latter to roll or unroll the curtain relatively laterally-flanged bases a. These slides have free vertically-reciprocating movement in the metallic guides B, which latter have their opposite longitudinal sides overlapping and inclosing the flanged bases of said slides.
upper extremities of the metallic guides are The curved forwardly and downwardly, and the journals of friction-pulleys C have bearing therein.
The guides are each formed in single piece, and have their guide-openings at right angles to the length of the curtain-roller. Within said guides the slides have movement in a vertical plane passing rearward of said ourtain-roller.
Draw-cords D are fastened to eyes d, formed in the upper portion of each slide, in close proximity to the metallic guides, and thence pass upwardly over the friction-pulleys and downward. Preferably these two cords unite in a single cord, E, after their passage over the pulley, which is in vertical line with the cord-fastenin g knob.
The cord F, which serves to roll and unroll the curtain relatively to the curtain-roller, is suitably connected with the latter, so as to 1'0- tate the same.
Cords E and F respectively pass through vertical thimblcs 9, formed on opposite sides and in single piece with the metallic "strip Gr. They then are fastened, as desired, to a knob, H, which is located at the lower extremity of said strip.
Having fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
The combination, with slides which support a curtain-roller, and are formed with laterallyflanged bases, of metallic guides whose respective longitudinal sides overlap and inclose said bases, the upper extremities of the guides being curved forwardly and provided with friction-pulleys, substantially as set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand this 17th day of September, 1875.
HENRY H. MEADE.
