19 Claims.
The invention relates to valances and particularly to drapery valances for dwelling windows.
The invention is particularly directed to improved means for mounting or supporting draperies such as valances, The object of the invention is to provide a unitary mounting for a valance drapery for the top and sides of window frames to hang interiorly of the window curtain or shade, the valance being so mounted as to provide particularly pleasing ornamental effects which are uniform and symmetrical upon both sides of the window frame. These symmetrical ornamental effects are maintained unimpaired and undisturbed during the use of the valance. The improved mounting for draperies is of the nature of a hanger and provides means whereby an inexperienced person can conveniently hang the valances and secure a tailored ornamental effect usually possible only to those with professional skill. The improved mountings when in use are hidden from view by the manner in which the valances can be draped thereover. The valance as mounted or supported also provides a hidden support for the window shade or curtain.
The claims of the instant application are directed to the improvements in drapery mountings.
The following description and the accompanying drawings set forth in detail certain means illustrating the improvements in drapery mountings, such disclosed means constituting, however, only two of the many forms in which the principle of the invention may be embodied.
In said accompanying drawings:
Figure 1 is a front elevation of the upper portion of a window frame with two of the improved mountings and a valance hung thereon; the window curtain or shade supported by the mounting brackets rearwardly of the valance being rolled up into its upper position;
Figure 2 is a broken side view of an upper corner of the window frame, particularly showing one of the mountings in which the upper front side corners of the valance are folded, the particular mounting shown being of somewhat different design than those shown in Figure 1,, the view also showing a bracket by which the valance mounting is supported on the front of the window frame, said bracket also providing a support for the curtain or shade rod;
Figure 3 is a longitudinal section, upon an enlarged scale, of one of the mountings shown in Figure 1, and in which an upper side front comer of the valance is folded, the view being taken in the plane indicated by the line III-III, Figure 1; a
Figure 4 is a front edge view of the mounting shown in Figure 3;
Figure 5 is a view of the upper end of the mounting shown in Figure 3; Y
Figure 6 is a side view, upon a reduced scale, of the window frame, valance, mounting, and bracket shown in Figure l, the view also indicating the window shade or curtain in lowered position, the view being taken from the plane indicated by the line VI-VI, Figure 1; and
Figure 7 is a plan view, upon a reduced scale, of they blank or fabric piece which is hung or draped to-form the unitary decorative valance shown in Figure 1. I
Referring to the accompanying drawings, particularly Figures 1 and 3-7, in which the same respective parts are designated by the same several numbers in the different views, two angular strap iron brackets 2 are secured at their rear ends to the top portions and on the inside of a window frame I and serve to support two special mounting members or hangers 3 to which the brackets 2 are secured at their front ends, in and over which members 3 fringed side parts of the improved valance are folded and draped, an intermediate fringed front part of the valance being draped in chordal-shaped formation between the members 3, the fringed valance parts forwardly of the members 3 depending symmetrically and decoratively upon both sides adjacently inwardly of the side frame members of the window frame I. A rear plain or edge-hemmed part of the valance extends between the mountings 3 rearwardly of the fringed intermediate and side parts.
The brackets 2 have such angular end formations as will permit convenient and secure fastening of the same to the window frame I and the mounting members 3, and the intermediate portions thereof are bent into U-shaped formations 4 serving to support a transverse rod 5 from which the usual window shade or curtain 6 hangs and upon which it can be rolled.
The entire window covering often includes side drapes depending rearwardly of a valance, but since these side drapes form no part of the instant invention they are not shown although they could be used with the invention if desired.
A form of improved valance suitable for supporting on the improved mountings and having a novel cooperation therewith is a unitary structure formed from a blank or a fabric piece I, such as illustrated in Figure '7, the edges of the piece a I which show at the front and sides of the valance when draped upon a window frame having a decorative fringe such as the scalloped and reticulated lace fringe 8.
The valance is removably mounted on and securely held by the members 9 without the use of tacks or other evident or visible extraneous fastening means and in a manner which does not injure the valance material when mounting or removing the valance. For this purpose the members 9 are special structures formed substantially as follows:
Each member or hanger 9 has a substantially rectangular plate-like body 9, Figure 3. of substantial thickness. of which one edge (the front edge when in position on a window frame) is intersected by a plurality of spaced slots Ill opening at their inner ends into pockets II aligned therewith and formed through the body 9 and of substantial size both in length and width. The slots iii are provided with outer curved flaring walls so that they are wide enough to permit sliding therethrough into the pockets ll of two flush plies or thicknesses of the material of the fabric piece I and the pockets I I are commodious enough to receive and permit easy and loose accommodation of the plies. One end of the body 9 (the inner end when in use) is formed with a deep slot l2 intersecting the edge thereof intersected by the slots l0, and the other end of the body 9 is extended from the edge opposite to that intersected by the slots l and i2 into a formation is having a narrow slot l4 one of whose inner wall portions I5 is concave to form a narrow pocket l6. Adjacent the front edge the body 9 is formed with a lengthwise through hole If intersecting the slots i0, and the two parts of the formation l9 are formed with aligned through holes [8 and I9 which intersect the slot ll. These holes are adapted to receive non-fabric-imuring securing pins, one of which 29 for the hole I! is shown in Figure 6, as also a pin 9! for the aligned holes l8 and I9. I
Speaking in general terms, the hemmed, but otherwise plain, side 2| of the blank or fabric piece I, Figure 7, forms the depending rear side edges and the rear of the draped valance, the fringed sides 22 form the side and front side depending portions of the draped valance, each front side comprising a plurality of overlapping folds of increasingly shorter lengths toward the center of the draped valance, as shown in Figure 1, and the fringed side 29 of the piece 1 forms a front intermediate top chordal-shaped valance portion.
The brackets 2 are of angular formations so that the mounting members or hangers 9 are supported at an angle to the sides of the window frame I, whatever is most suitable for the particular decoration, preferably 45, as shown in the accompanying drawings, and are inclined inwardly. Such an assembly provides width for the serpentine fringed-edged depending front side Portions of the valance, as is clearly seen in Figure 1;
The valance is hung by finger-folding two plies of the piece I a sufficient distance from a corner 24, Figure 7, to provide the desired dependent length 25, Figure 1, the folded width being somewhat more than sufflcient to reach from the point 28, Figure 3, to the point 21, and the folded plies slid through the upper slot Ill of a mounting 9 and into the aligned pocket Ii. Then the draping of a side 22 of the piece I is completed by repeatedly folding the fabric and passing it .4 through the successive slots i0 and into the pockets l l until all the slots, including the slot i2 are filled, the slot l2 receiving a single ply of the material. successively the depending valance portions are shorter as the folding progresses in' the series of slots l9 so that the innermost depending portion 29, Figure 1, is comparatively shallow. the whole fringed edge forming a generally serpentine. decorative formation from a lowermost outer point to an uppermost inner point upon an upper side portion of the window frame I. A pin 20 is then passed into the hole l'l unobstrusively to retain the fabric folds in the slots l9 and pockets II. when this operation has been repeated on the other side of the window frame, commencing with the corner 29 of piece I, Figure "l, the sides of the valance have been completely draped and secured by the pins 29 passed into the holes If. The intermediate front portion of the valance naturally drapes itself between the dependent side portions into the upper chordal-shaped formation, Figure 1. Symmetry as between the two front side portions of the draped valance, and as between these front side portions and the intermediate top chordal-shaped front portion, can be assured by the commodious accommodation for more or less material provided by the liberal sire of the pockets i I.
Then the material is draped around the outer edges 90 of the members or hangers 9 and passed in a single ply through the slots I4 and into the pockets i9 and secured by pins passed into the holes is and is. From .the slots i4 and the pockets it the rear hemmed edge of the draped valance passes underneath the'parts I9 of the formations i9 and is extended to form the rear of the valance.
The design of mounting 9', Figure 2, is somewhat varied and is more suitable for some assemblies. In this design the body 9' is tapered from the outside end to the inside end and the pockets i i' gradually decrease in area.
What I claim is:
1. A drapery mounting comprising a body member having spaced slots intersecting an edge thereof, and pockets formed in which the slots open.
