PATENT ASSIGNOR OF ONE-HALF TO THE TORRING- CURTAIN-ROD AND BRACKET.
:PEGIFIGATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 502,659, dated August 1,1893.
Application filed September 24, 1892- Serial No. 446,773. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN DAY, a citizen of the United States, residing in the city, county, and State of New York, have invented anew and useful Improvement in Curtain-Rods and Brackets, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part thereof.
My invention relates to curtain-rods and brackets and consists in the novel arrangement and combinationof parts hereinafter described and specifically pointed out in the claim.
The object of my invention is to provide an improved curtain-rod and bracket which can be readily put in position and taken down and is equally adapted to be placed upon the inside or outside of framing (that is,
the outside of the framing. Fig. 3 is a front Fig. 4 is an end view of a rod in place on brackets in the position which" view of the same.
they occupied when placed on the outsideof a frame; and Fig.5 is a view, partly in section, showing rounded or spherical part on the curtain rod, instead of on the brackets, and a co-operating socket bracket in line with the rod, instead of at right angles thereto.
A representsa curtain rod, which may or may not be extensible, and in each end of which, in the preferred construction, is
formed a socket a, which is substantially spherical. This socket is open at the end,
and at one side, as shown at a (Fig. 4). The bracket B has two spring arms 1), extending from a base preferably formed integral with the arms I), at the outer ends of which are Fig. 2 is a top view, partly,
v formed buttons, or projections b',preferably of semi-spherical form.
When it is desired to put my improved rods and brackets into use, it the rod to be used is extensible, the brackets are first secured to either the inside or outside of the frame, and'the sockets a, of the rod A, are slipped over the buttons 1) on the elastic arms I). In this act the arms are first pressed sufficiently close together to allow the opening on the end of the rod to pass over the buttons b, after which said buttons will separate in the sockets. It the rod to be used'is not extensible one bracket may be secured in place, and end of the rod connected thereto; then the second bracket should be connected to the opposite end of the rod, before said second bracket is securedin place.
It will be seen that by the construction described a ball' and. socket joint having an elastic member is provided, and that the members of the joint or the rod and bracket on which the members are formed are adapted to be connected in line with each other or 'at'different angles, and the construction is such as to allow of the parts being readily attached to and detached from oneanother since theyare held together solely by spring pressure or friction. By employing this form of joint the bracket member may be either on the inside or outside of the supporting frame, as above indicated.
Thereare modifications in detail of construction which I may make without departing from the spirit of my invention, such as making the balls or spherical enlargements on the ends of rod A, adapted to be held within the cup shapedends b, on the spring arms I) of brackets B, in Fig. 5. While it is preferred to make each bracket of a single piece, this is not essential.
Having described my invention, I what I claim, and desire to secure by LettersPatent,
1s V I The combination of two brackets, having bases adapted tobe connected to the inside or outside of a window or similar frame, the
that the brackets may stand at an angle with the rod, or in line with it, substantially as IO described.
JOHN DAY.
