Definitions

  • the object of the present invention is to provide an arrangement which is similar in principle to the arrangement described immediately above, but which is simplified in respect of manipulation and fitting and which gives a wider range of possible forms for the pleating.
  • each of the curtain hangers of the curtain rail is provided with at least two pins on each of which a suspender in strap or bar form for carrying the curtain is hung.
  • fold holders adapted to the desired shape of fold are fastened on the bottom end of the strap-like suspender in such a manner that they project substantially perpendicularly from the suspender.
  • This arrangement for forming folds can not only be manufactured simply and economically but is also easy to install.
  • FIGURE 1 shows an arrangement for curtain rails having side sliders
  • FIGURE 2 a side view of an arrangement with a double suspender
  • FIGURE 3 an arrangement for two double suspenders
  • FIGURE 4 an arrangement for internal runner rails with rolling hangers and additional fold holders
  • FIGURE 5 a section in the plane VV in FIGURE 4
  • FIGURES 6 and 7 illustrate two forms of construction of curtain rails of T-shape and angular profile
  • FIGURES 8 and 9 illustrate two hangers having spring legs.
  • the hangers 1 run as side sliders in a side slide rail 2.
  • Each of ice the side sliders is equipped with at least one pin 3 which is provided with a collar 4 and the longitudinal axis of which extends in the longitudinal direction of the slide rail 2.
  • the pin 3 serves for locating a strap-like suspender 5, the top end of which is provided with a keyhole shaped slot 6 having lower widened part 60 permitting the passage of the collar 4 and narrowed resilient throat part 615 which serves to retain the pin 3 in the bearing eye 6a.
  • This suspender 5 is pushed through the loops or pockets of head band 7 (see FIGURE 4) of the curtain or drape and is then suspended on the pin 3.
  • Two projections 8 provided at the lower end of the suspender prevent the curtain G from sliding off the latter.
  • the suspender 5 may also be bent in U-form and by its two free ends be hung on the pins 3 provided on both sides of the hanger 1. In this case it is not necessary to provide special projections at the bottom end of the suspender.
  • FIGURE 3 it is also possible to provide two double pins 3 on a hanger, so that two U-shaped suspenders or four single suspenders can be hung on the same hanger.
  • rolling hangers are also suitable for being equipped with pins 3.
  • a plurality of single suspenders 5 are suspended one behind the other on the pins of one or more hangers 1 running in an internal runner rail 9.
  • a fiat fold holder 10 of plastic material is pushed over a plurality of the suspenders 5 and is held by the projections 8.
  • the external contour of the fold holder which forms a flat plate, is selected in accordance with the desired shape of the folds and has slots 21 corresponding in shape to the cross-section of the suspenders 5.
  • the fold holder may either form a simple flat component or be provided with apertures 11.
  • the material is preferably flexible so that, as illustrated in FIGURE 5, intermediate folds can be formed and clamped fast in the fold holder.
  • the fold holder 10 is provided with one or more narrow recesses 22.
  • the pins 3 are fastened on legs 12, which, like inner legs 13 serving for introducing the curtain runners into the bearing 14 of the hanger 1, are resilient. If the inner legs 13 are lengthened as shown in FIGURE 9, they may also be provided with pins 3.
  • the hangers can be constructed according to the invention, for curtain rails 17 of T-shaped cross-section or for angular rails 18.
  • the pins 3 are provided on the bottom apex of a bow 16 which connects the rollers and the free ends of which serve as bearing pins for the rollers 15, while in the case of the single roller arrangementwhich is customary for angle rails 18, they are likewise mounted on a how 19 on one end of which the roller is mounted, while its other free end forms a guide pin 20 for the hanger.
  • each of said hanging devices comprising a hanger moveable along said curtain rail and suspenders in elongated form connected thereto by articulation means allowing swinging movement perpendicular to the path of said hangers along said curtain rail, said articulation means comprising at least two horizontal pins extending parallel to said curtain rail and at least two bearing eyes fitting on said pins.
  • said fold holder consists of a flat plate of flexible plastic material and is provided with slots corresponding in shape to the cross-section of said suspenders.
  • hangers are each selectively provided with two or more plIlS.
