E, GREEN. WINDOW SHADE AND SCREEN.
(No Model.)
FFTCEQ Arum ELMER-GQEEN, OF NORTH EAST, PENNSYLVANIA.
WINDQW SHADE AND SCREEN.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 289,408, dated December 4,1883.
Application filed April 4, 1883. (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ELMER GREEN, a citizen of the United States, residing at North East, in the county of Erie and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in IVindow Shades and Screens; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full,
clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to window-shades; and it consists in providing a roller-curtain with panels of Venetian-blind slats.
The object of the invention is to so construct a curtain that it will have the appearance and serve the purposes of inside blinds.
The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings as follows:
Figure 1 shows a window fitted with my improved shade, which is rolled up, leaving the lower sash exposed. Fig, 2 is asimilar view, and shows the curtain drawn down. Figs. 3, 4, 5, and 6 are details of construction, and will be referred to in proper place herein.
A is the curtain or shade, which is made of paper, cloth, or other material, as desired.
B is the roller upon which. the curtain rolls, and may be constructed as commonly.
O is the bar usually put inthe hem of the curtain; or it may be two pieces of molding, one on each side of the fabric of the curtain, and securely fastened together.
O is a cross-bar formed of moldings in the manner just suggested, (see Fig. 3,) the object of which is to give a more finished appearance to the lower half of the curtain, giving it the appearance of being composed of top and bottom rails, panels, and trunnions. The space between the bars 0 and C is divided up into as many panels as desired by frames formed of mitered strips of bead-molding D D, and placed opposite each other, as seen in Figs. 3 and 6, and secured together by nails orscrews (I, so as to hold the fabric of the curtain firmly between them. Either before or after fastening these frames in place the part of the curtain inclosed is cut out. (See Fig. 3.) The spaces or panels thus formed may be filled with blind-slats or solid panels of wood or other material. E represents thosefilled with slats, and E those filled with solid panels. WVhere the spaces are filled with slats, there are trunnion-holes e for the slats, formed, as shown in Fig. 6, either wholly in one of the parts of the frame D or partly in both. The slats should be as light as possible. I have made them of thin strips of wood finished with a small trunnion, e, which, as the hole 6 is round, may be square, as in Fig. 5, if desired. The material of the slats being so thin, a hole, f, is made in it in place of putting in a staple. This is clearly shown in Figs. 4 and 5. The slats may be formed of paper molded from the pulp, in
nion; but I do not desire to be limited to any particular construction of these parts.
If desired, the shade can be spliced at the ferent from that above, so that when theblind is drawn down, as in Fig. 2, it will give the appearance from outside of being an inside shutter with a curtain between it and the sash drawn half-way down.
WVhen the shade is rolled up, as in Fig. 1, the appearance will be that of the upper part of an inside shutter closed and the lower one folded into the'boxing.
My invention may be applied to various kinds of screens for the purpose of ornamenting the same or for affording lookout-openings therein. I do not desire to be limited to the application thereof to any particular kind of screens.
The moldings forming the frames D may be of wood, metal, or other material.
What I claim as new is 1. A shade or screen for windows or other cloth, or other thin material provided with an opening or openings, theedges of which are bound or held in place by a frame in which are pivoted slats, substantially as and for the purposes mentioned.
2. A window-shade consisting of a curtain, A, part of which is adapted, as shown, to roll up, and part is provided with an opening or openings, the edges of which are bound or held in place by a frame in which are pivoted slats, substantially as and for the purposes mentioned. 1
A, part of which is adapted, as shown, to be rolled up, and part is divided into a series of which case a wire can be put in to form atrun- 3. A window-shade consisting of a curtain,'.
bar 0 and material used below of a color difi purposes, which consists of a body of paper,
panels formed by openings in said curtain, the
edges of which are bound or held in place by frames which are filled with either solid panels or with blind-slats, substantially as and for the purposes set forth.
4. In a window-sh ade or other screen formed of cloth, paper, or other thin fabric, the combination, substantially as shown, of openings through the same, which have their edges bound, with frames D D, secured together and holding the fabric A between them, and provided with blind-slats E E, 820., substantially as shown.
5. In a shade or screen for windows or other purposes, the combination of the pivoted slat E, having a hole, f, therein, with the staple g ELMER GREEN. lVitnesses:
