Description
June 25, 1946. J'. S'BODEMAN CURTAIN FIXTURE Filed April 5, 1944 LEI 2 1). '5.
Patented June 25, 1946 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 1 Claim.
The present invention relates to new and useful improvements in curtain fixtures and has for its primary object to provide curtain rod supporting means adapted for supporting the rod in a position for using either fu11-length or half-length curtains.
A further important object of the invention is to provide a curtain fixture of this character embodying supporting means for the curtain rod by means of which the rod may be supported from a lower window sash, or from the upper portion of a window frame and without requiring the use of nails, screws or other fastening devices which might mar the sash or frame.
A further object is to provide a device of this character of simple and practical construction, which is neat and attractive in appearance, which is easily attached in position, which also is relatively inexpensive to manufacture and. otherwise well adapted for the purposes for which the same is intended.
Other objects and advantages reside in the details of construction and operation as more fully hereinafter described and claimed, reference being had to the accompanying drawing formingpart hereof, wherein like numerals refer to like parts throughout and in which Figure 1 is an elevational view showing the curtain fixture supported in position to a lower window sash,
Figure 2 is a top plan view,
Figure 3 is a sectional view taken substantially on a line 33 of Figure 2,
Figure 4 is a view in elevation showing the curtain fixture attached to the upper portion of a window frame, and
Figure 5 is a sectional view taken substantially on a line 5--5 of Figure 4.
Referring now to the drawing in detail and first with respect to the form of the invention illustrated in Figures 1 to 3 inclusive, the numeral 5 designates a sectional telescoping curtain rod, each section of the rod having its outer end portion bent at right angles inwardly toward the window on which the rod is mounted, the end of the rod having formed therewith an upwardly extending strip 1 which forms a hanger having an inwardly extending lug or extension 8 at its upper end adapted to rest on top of a lower window sash 9 and with the hanger 1 bearing against the front surface of the sash.
An intermediate hanger designated generally at I0 is provided for the central portion of the rod, the hanger I0 being formed of a strip of rigid material and having a hook II formed at its lower end engaging under the curtain rod, as shown to advantage in Figure 3 of the drawing, the hanger l0 extending upwardly along the outer surface of the curtain rod and then extending inwardly toward the sash 9 with a portion of the hanger bent as shown at [2 to bear against the front surface of the sash and having its upper end formed with an inwardly extending lug l3 adapted to rest upon the top of the sash to extend under the window latch M.
The portion of the intermediate hanger l0 disposed in front of the curtain rod is provided with an ornamental button l5 suitably secured to the hanger.
From the foregoing it will be apparent that the lugs B at each nd of the curtain rod which rest upon the top of the lower window sash, as well as the lug 13 of the intermediate hanger I0 will serve to support the ends as well as the central portion of the curtain rod and with the curtain rod spaced outwardly from the front of the sash so that the curtain may be properly supported thereon. I
When using the invention for supporting a fulllength curtain the lugs 8 at each end of the curtain rod, as well as the lug l3 of the intermediate hanger I0 are inserted between the molding l5 and the top of the window frame i! so as to support the hanger at the top of the window frame.
It is believed the details of construction, manner of use and advantages of the device will be readily understood from the foregoing without further detailed explanation.
Having thus described the invention, what I claim is:
A curtain rod comprising a pair of rod sections, the inner ends of said sections being telescopically arranged, one within the other, with the outer ends of said sections bent inwardly toward a window on which the rod is adapted to be mounted to space the rod from the window, flat vertical strips on the outer ends of the said rod sections and adapted to bear against the vertical face of a supporting structure, inwardly extending lugs on the upper ends of said vertical strips adapted to rest on top of said supporting structure, an intermediate hanger for the curtain rod, said intermediate hanger including a strip of material overlying said rod, a hook on the lower end of said intermediate hanger, said hook engaging said rod on the underside thereof, said intermediate hanger having an inwardly bent central section for spacing said rod from the window, a vertical section adapted to bear against the vertical face of said supporting structure, a lug on its upper end adapted to rest on top of said supporting structure, and an ornamental button adapted to be grasped by the hand of the user whereby said intermediate hanger may be manually manipulated.
JOHN S. BODEMAN.
