CURTAIN ROLLER.
No. 584,049. Patented June 8,1897.
UNITED STATES PATENT EEicE,
LOUIS SOIIUOK, OF BROOKLYN, NEXV YORK.
CURTAIN-ROLLER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 584,049, dated June 8, 1897.
Application filed May 20, 1396. Serial No. 592,258. (No model.)
lyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Curtain-Rollers; 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.
My invention relates to improvements in curtain-poles, the object of the same being to provide a simple and convenient device for supporting windowcurtains whereby the same maybe raised or lowered and held in any position without the use of springs.
The invention consists of a pole having secured to each of its endsa screw formed with a head, a shoulder, and an interposed groove, and a pair of cords, one secured in the groove of the screw at each end of the pole, the said cords being adapted to be wound on the end of the pole in opposite directions and provided with counterhalance-weights at their lower ends. The pole is mounted upon suit able brackets projecting out from the windo wframe, the said brackets consisting, preferably, of a screw-eye.
The invention is clearly illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 represents a front elevation of my pole shown applied. Fig. 2 is a central longitudinal section through the same. Fig. 3 is a cross-section, showing the brackets upon which the pole is mounted. Fig. & is a detail perspective View of one of the screws attached to the end of the pole.
Like reference-numerals indicate like parts in the different views.
The pole 1 is made in cylindrical form of wood or other suitable material and has connected to each of its outer ends a screw 2, formed with ahead 3, a shoulder 4, and a groove 5 between said head and shoulder, the inner ends being threaded and adapted to be screwed into the end of the pole. The inner side of the lug at and the outer end of the pole 1 are recessed, as shown, the two parts unitedly forming a groove 6, within which fits the eye 7 of a screw 8, forming a bracket for supporting the pole and a curtain attached. thereto. Connected to pins 9 in the groove 5 on each end of the pole are cords 1O 11, each having a counterbalance-weight 12 upon its lower end. The cord 10 is wound around the end of the pole in one direction and the cord 11 around the other end of the pole in the opposite direction.
By this construction it will be seen in whatever position the curtain may be the pole 1 may be rotated for the purpose of raising or lowering said curtain by drawing upon on e or the other of the cords 1O 11. As one-for example, cord 10is unwound for the purpose of raising the curtain the cord 11 will be wound up in the groove 5. As the cord 11 is pulled down for the purpose of lowering the curtain the cord 10 on the opposite end will be wound up. The curtain can thus be adjusted at any point within its range of movement by my device without the use of springs. The counterbalance-weights 12 serve not only to keep up the tension in the cords 10 11, but to hold the pole 1 in any position to which it may be turned.
It should be stated that screw-eyes 13 13 are secured to the side of the window-frame at sponds in size and shape with the recess in.
the end of said pole, of a pair of cords secured respectively in said grooves and wound in opposite directions, and countcrbalance-weights on the lower ends of said cords, substantially as and for the purpose described.
In testimony whereof I have signed this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
LOUIS SGHUCK.
