2 Claims.
This invention relates to a shade roller bracket.
An object of the invention is to provide a bracket of the character described that may be readily secured to a window casing without the use of screws or nails and which, when so secured, will remain stationary.
It is another object of the invention to provide a bracket of the character described which is interchangeable, that is which will receive and retain either the round pintle at one end of the roller or the spring-tensioning pintle, at the other end of the roller so that only one type of bracket need be used with the conventional type of shade roller.
It is a further object of the invention to provide a shade roller bracket that may be very cheaply produced and easily installed.
With the above and other objects in view the invention has particular relation to certain novel features of construction and use, examples of which are given in this specification and illustrated in the accompanying drawing, wherein:
Figure 1 is a side view of the bracket.
Figure 2 is a cross-sectional view taken on the line 2-2 of Figure 1.
Figure 3 is a cross-sectional view taken on the line 33 of Figure 2.
Figure 4 shows a pair of brackets installed and the shade roller mounted therein.
Figure 5 is a side view of another embodiment with the spring-tensioning jaw therein.
Figure 6 is a rear view thereof; and
Figure 7 is a side view showing the round end pintle therein.
In the drawings the numeral I designates the base of the bracket which in the present illustration is in the form of a helical wire whose inner end terminates in a rearwardly extended tang 2 adapted to be driven into the window casing, as shown in Figure 4. l
The other end of the wire is forwardly turned forming the arm 3 whose free end is retracted and is shaped to provide a diamond shaped opening 4. This opening will receive either the round end pintle 5 or the flattened spring-tensioning pintle B of the shade roller 1 and will prevent said jaw from turning when the shade is lowered so that the spring in the roller will be placed under tension.
In installation the brackets may be secured to the window casing and the end pintle 5 then inserted in the opening 4 of one of the brackets and the arm 3 of the other bracket may then be sprung outwardly so as to allow the insertion of the pintle 6 therethrough and when released will resume its original position. It may be stated in this connection that both forms of the bracket are made of strong spring steel wire of a suflicient size to give the required strength.
The embodiment illustrated in Figures 5 to 7, inclusive, is also formed of a single piece of spring steel wire. In this form the numeral 8 designates the base adapted to rest against the window casme. At one end it is formed with the-overturned tang 9 to be driven into the casing and turned forwardly from the other end of the base there is the forwardly extended arm Ill. The free end of the arm i0 is retracted and shaped to provide an opening ll, similar in shape to the opening 4 thus providing a space for either the pintle 5 or the pintle B. The extreme free end I2 of the retracted portion is upwardly turned so that the pintle 5 and pintle B may be readily inserted.
In applying the bracket of either form to the window casing the tang of the bracket may be located at the right place and then easily driven in by the stroke of a hammer.
that the brackets will be held securely in place the bases are formed with the teeth as l4 which will penetrate into the window asing thus holding the brackets securely in their proper posi tion.
The drawings and description are illustrative merely while the broad principle of the invention will be defined by the appended claims.
What we claim is:
1. A shade roller bracket formed of a single piece of spring wire and comprising, a helical base, one end of the wire being formed into a tang which is extended rearwardly from the base and the other end of the wire being formed into a forwardly extended arm whose forward end terminates in a loop shaped to receive either the round pintle at one end of a shade roller or to receive the flat spring-tensioning pintle at the other end of said roller.
2. A shade roller bracket formed of a single piece of spring wire and comprising, a helical base whose turns are in the same plane so as to fit against a plane surface, one end of the wire which is located centrally of the base being formed into a rearwardly extending tang and the other end of the wire at the outer side of the base being formed into a forwardly extended arm whose forward end terminates in a loop shaped to receive 'either the round pintle at one end of the shade roller or to receive the flat spring-tensi-oning pintle at the other end of the roller.
