Application June 4, 1942, Serial No. 445,783
1 Claim.
This invention relates to a combined curtain and shade bracket, and it consists in the constructions, arrangements and combinations herein described and claimed.
It is a particular object of the invention to provide a unitary bracket construction in a manner to support a shade roller and curtain rod and embodying means whereby the bracket may be secured to the framing of windows of varying widths, without the use of nails or similar fastening devices.
It is also an object of the invention to provide a bracket of the nature stated, in which the essential parts may be stamped from sheet metal and which may be readily assembled for use without the use of special tools.
Additional objects, advantages and features of invention will be apparent from the following description and accompanying drawing, wherein Figure 1 is a plan view ofa bracket as installed upon a window frame.
Figure 2 is an end view thereof.
Figure 3 is a top edge view of the bracket, detached.
Figure 4 is a cross section on the line 4-4 of Figure 1.
Figure 5 is a view similar to Figure 1, illustrating a modified form of the bracket.
Figure 6 is an end view thereof.
Attention is first invited to Figures 1 to 4 wherein there is shown a bracket Iii consisting of a section II and a section I2, the latter being adjustably engaged with the section II for accommodation of varying widths of window framing. as well as described in greater detail.
The section II is of elongated form and has opposed longitudinal flanges I3I3. A slot I6 is formed medially of the section, positioned between the flanges, as clearly shown in Figure l. The slot M is of a length less than the length of the section, and in the present instance is shown as approximately one-half of the length of the The flange I3 is divided or cut as at 5, and from the section II there is an integral right angular extension I6, the outer end of which is bent at a right angle defining a flange H of a height the same as the flanges Iii-I3, thus maintaining the section flush against a frame when installed thereon.
The'extension I6 is formed with a pair of outwardly bent ears I8, one on each longitudinal edge, and each extension is formed with a nib I9 as customarily employed upon brackets for support of a curtain rod.
The section I I is also formed at one end with a right angular end member terminating in suitable prongs 2|.
The section I2 is a rectangular flat strip of a width slidably engaged between the flanges I3 and I 3 and has an open-ended slot 22 adapted to register with the slot I4 when in assembled relation. The end of the strip opposite the open end of the slot 22 is bent at right angles, forming an end member 23, lying in a plane parallel to the end member 20, and is also formed with angularly disposed prongs 24.
From the construction thus far described, it will be apparent that the sections I I and I2 are telescopicaliy arranged within one another, so that they can be adjusted to differing widths of frames, and when so arranged upon the frame respective ends 2i] and 23 may be given a light blow to cause the prongs 2| and 24 to penetrate the frame for support of the bracket.
To further secure the sections II and I2 and to also afford support of one end of a roller shade, indicated at 25, provision is made of a bracket 25. The bracket 26 embodies a base member 21 of a width slightly less than that of the section I I and has a tongue 28 of a width freely engageable within the slots I4 and 21 but of such width as to maintain the base 21 against turning movements. The base 2'! has an aperture 28 for reception of a bolt 290i a length extending through the slots I4 and 22 and receives thereon a nut 36, for clamping the sections I I and I2 together as well as securing the bracket 26 in a rigid manner. It will be apparent that the bracket 26 may be adjusted to different positions along the slots I4 and 22 so as to accommodate various lengths of shade rollers.
In Figures 5 and 6, a modified form of the bracket is shown constructed for attachment to horizontally extended frame portions. In this form the telescoping sections II and I2 are arranged vertically rather than transversely of the frame as in the first form and are connected together by means of a bolt 29 and nut 30. The section II has ears I8 for securement of a curtain rod as previously explained, and also has a lateral extension 35. The extension is longitudinally slotted as at 36 for slidable mounting of a shade bracket 26 similar to the bracket 25 first described. The outer end of the extension 35 is bent at right angles to define a flange 37 correspending in depth to the flanges 38 of the section II. These flanges butt against the frame for spacing the assembled bracket suitably from the frame.
While I have shown and described preferred forms of the device, this is by way of illustration only, and I consider as my own all such modifications in construction as fairly fall within the scope of the appended claim.
I claim:
A combined shade and curtain bracket comprising a pair of sections, one of the sections consisting of an elongated portion having inturned longitudinal flanges and a right angular extension upon one of the sides of the elongated portion, said extension having a flange at its end of a depth the same as the first named flanges, the flanges forming a footing for engaging a window frame, and said extension further having ear members for support of a curtain rod, said elongated portion having a slot intermediate its length, the other of said sections being a flat strip member of a width to be slidably engaged between the longitudinal inturned flanges of the first named section, the flat strip member having a slot aligned with the first slot, a shade bracket having an apertured base aligned with the slots of the sections, a threaded fastener engaged through the aperture and aligned slots whereby to secure the bracket upon the sections and to further hold the sections in a desired adjusted position, and each of said sections having prong members arranged in opposed relation to each other for penetration of a Window framing for support of the bracket.
