Patented Sept. 23, 1947 CURTAIN ROD OR DRAPERY-FIXTURE Lad Brtva, Sturgis, Mich, assignor to Kirsch Company, Sturgis, Mich., a corporation of Michigan Application April 4, 1946, Serial No. 659,583
3 Claims. 1
This invention relates to improvements in curtain rod or drapery fixtures.
The main objects of this invention are:
First, to provide a, curtain rod or drapery fixture of the crane type in which the curtain rod is supported to freely swing in a generally horizontal plane and which may be easily and quickly adjusted to properly position the rod 01' crane without disturbing the adjustment of the bracket and while the rod is supported by the bracket.
Second, to provide a drapery fixture having these advantages which is very simple and economical in its parts.
Objects relating to details and economies of the invention will appear from the description to follow. The invention is defined and pointed out in the claims.
A preferred embodiment of the invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which:
Fig. 1 is a front elevation of a drapery fixture embodying my invention mounted upon a window casing, certain parts being shown conventionally.
Fig. 2 is a fragmentary elevational view somewhat enlarged as compared to Fig. 1, partially in vertical section.
Fig. 3 is a fragmentary view partially in section corresponding to Fig. 1 showing the parts in another position of adjustment.
Fig. 4 is an enlarged fragmentary view partially in section on line 44 of Fig. 2.
Fig. 5 is a side elevational view of the bracket.
In the accompanying drawing, l represents a window casing which is conventionally illustrated. The embodiment of my invention illustrated comprises a bracket consisting of a base section 2 adapted for attachment to a window casing or other support. The adjustable section 3 is disposed between the flanges 4 of the base section and has a longitudinal slot 5 therein receiving the screw 6.
The member 3 has a tubular socket 1 at its outer end, the member 3 being formed of a piece of metal of suitable gauge folded upon itself to provide the socket 1, the ends 8 being disposed in side by side relation to provide the arm ortion of the member 3, see Figs. 4 and 5.
The rod member 9 is desirably formed as a die or other casting and has a rod receiving arm to adapted to receive the curtain rod or crane I! which is telescoped thereon. The ends of the rod are not illustrated. The rod supporting member 9 rests upon the upper edge of the socket, being provided with a second arm [2 adapted to receive 2. a pull cord to anchor the inner edge of the curtain or drapery.
The socket is provided with stops l3 spaced substantially The arm I2 constitutes a stop coacting with the stops l3 thereby limiting the swinging movement of the rod or crane.
The rod supporting member is provided with a downwardly tapered shank l4 rotatable and tiltable within the socket-see for example the different adjustments shown in Figs. 2 and 3. At its lower end the shank is provided with a transverse tapered bore [5 adapted to receive the screw [6 which constitutes a member for adjustably sup.- porting the shank in the socket, the screw being carried by the shank and in bearing engagement with the inner end of the socket. A hole I! is provided in the socket in alignment with the screw to receive a screw driver for adjusting the screw.
The side of the shank opposite the arm of the rod supporting member is recessed at I8 so that the adjusting member may be adjusted until its head lies in the recess to permit the insertion of the shank in the socket and the member I6 then adjusted to the position to support the rod or crane in the proper relation. In Fig. 3 it is illustrated in an inclined position. It ordinarily would occupy a horizontal position and the adjustment is primarily of value in compensating for improper or careless positioning of the bracket and to compensate for any sagging of the rod or crane under load. The adjusting member being carried by the shank maintains the rod or crane in its adjusted position throughout the full sweep of adjustment thereof.
I have illustrated and described a highl practical embodiment of my invention. I have not attempted to illustrate or describe certain modifications or adaptations which I contemplate as it is believed that this disclosure will enable those skilled in the art to embody or adapt my invention as may be desired.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is:
1. In a curtain or drapery fixture, the combination of a supporting bracket provided with a socket, a rod member rotatably supported thereby and having a shank rotatable and tiltable within the socket, and an adjusting screw disposed in the shank in bearing relation to the socket.
2. In a curtain or drapery fixture, the combination of a supporting bracket provided with a socket, a rod member including an angularly disrotatably supported thereby and having a, shank rotatable and tiltable within the socket, and a member for tiltably adjusting the shank carried thereby and having threaded engagement therewith, said adjusting member being disposed at the side for rotation with the shank in engagement with the socket.
