STEWART HARTSHORN, OF SHORT HILLS, N EW JERSEY.
ATTACHING WINDOW-SHADES TO ROLLERS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 391,044, dated October 16,1888.
Application filed June 28, 1887. Seriai No. 242,714.
To (LZZ whom, it may concern.-
Be it known that I, STEWART HxR'rsrroIcN, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Short Hills,in the county of Essex and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Attaching NVindow-Shades to Rollers, of which the following is a specification.
My invention refers to an improved means of attaching window shades or curtains to the rollers or curtain-sticks on which they are mounted; and it consists in an improved device or fastener by which the shade can be readily and quickly secured to the roller, whether constructed of metal or wood, and easily removed from the same when desired.
In the drawings illustrating m-yinvention, in which like letters indicate like parts, Figure 1 is a view of the flexible tag or fastener as I propose to make it. Fig. 2 is a view of a metal roller with the flexible tag attached to the same, showing various ways of securing the same, Fig. 3 is a view of a wooden roller with the flexible tags secured to the same. Fig. 4 is a view of a roller, showing a modified method of securing the tag on the same.
Vith my improved device for securing the shade the latter is connected to the roller by means of a flexible tag constructed of some strong textile fabric, as cloth, and secured to the roller either by being put under or around a bar or strip of metal formed on the side of the roller, or by encircling the entire circumference of the roller. The tag, as I propose to make it, is shown in Fig. 1, and consists of a long narrow part, A, having an enlarged portion or head, B, at one end. The tag is preferably connected to the roller by a bar, 0, Fig. 2, arranged on theside ofthelatter,around which the tag is placed when the ends are secured to the shade, but may be secured to the roller, particularly when the latter is of wood, by merely encircling the roller, as shown in Fig. 4. This bar on the side of the roller, and around which the tag is placed, maybe formed directly from the material of the roller, when the latter is constructed of tin or other suitable metal, by punching out elongated openings or slits in the side of the roller, so as to leave a strip. or bar of the metal between, as shown in Fig. 2 atC; or the bar may be formed by soldering or otherwise attaching a strip of (No model.)
metal directly to the side of the roller, as is shown at G.
YVhen formed as last described, in order to prevent the bar projecting beyond the surface of the roller, so as to interfere with the winding of the shade, the roller may be constructed with depressions or recesses, (shown at c,) in which the bar or strip is soldered or secured. The bar may be readily applied to a wooden roller, and, if desired, may extend the whole length of the roller, and may be attached at intervals, as shown in Fig. 3. The tag may be secured to the bars 0 and to the roller in a variety of ways.
As is seen at D D, Fig. 2, the tag with the broad end B at the bottom maybe placed under the bar until the head B is close against the latter, as shown at D, and then the narrow end A turned down over the bar until the latter end is on or against the end B, as is seen at D. One side of the tag may be provided with some adhesive material, which is moistened after the tag is secured to the roller, as above described, and by means of which the shade, when placed between the ends ofthe tag, is firmly attached to the latter. If desired, a wire staple or similar device may be used instead of the adhesive material and made to pass through the ends of the tag and the shade, and thus readily secure the latter.
Instead of fastening both ends of the tag to the shade, but one end may be secured to the latter. In such a case the long end of the tag, after passing over the bar 0, is passed through a slit, 1), Fig. 1, formed in the tag, and the tag is drawn tight around the bar, as shown at E, Figs. 2 and 3, when the tag will be securely attached to the roller, and the shade may be fastened to end A of the tag by the adhesive material or by a suitable staple. To secure the tag more firmly, the broad end B may be fastened directly to the roller by the adhesive material on its face, when the other end can be secured to the shade, as before. When thus attached, the bar 0 prevents the tag from being pulled or stripped off the roller when the shade is entirely unwound or pulled down.
If desired, the tag may be secured to the shade before being attached to the roller, and when thus fastened it is possible, particularly when the tag is fastened to the roller, asshown at D and F, to readily adjust the length of the shade before it is permanently secured to the roller. v
The tag may be secured to the roller by merely being placed around thelatter, so as to completely encircle it and have the end A pass through the slit b, as shown in Fig. 4.
The tag is drawn tight around the roller, when it will bind the latter, and when the shade has been secured to the free end, as above described, the might of the shade will draw the tag close around the roller and securely attach it to the same.
As the tagis constructed of textile material, it readily accommodates itself to the roller and does not interfere in any manner with the winding of the shade; and, moreover, on account of the length of the tag, the curtain can be entirely unwound from the shade; and the shade may, moreover, be adjusted at the right length on the roller, and can be easily attached to the latter and removed from the same.
In detaching the shade from the rollers the ends of the tag may be separated from the shade by merely moistening the same when fastened by adhesive substance, or the tag may be cut or severed and anew tag used, when the shade is again attached to the roller.
What I claim is- 1. In a shade-roller, the combination, with the rol1er,of flexible tags provided with means for securing the curtain thereto,and connected with the roller by bars formed along its surface, substantially as and for the purpose described.
2. In a shade-roller, the combination, with the roller, of flexible tags provided with adhesive material, for the purpose described, and connected with the roller by bars formed along its surface, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
3. In a shade-roller, the combination, with the roller, of the flexible tag A, having the enlarged portion B, and slit 1), for receiving the end of the tag,arranged and adapted to secure the shade, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
Signed at New York, in the county of New York and State of New York, this 14th day of June, A. D. 1887.
