ADJUSTABLE CHAlN-HEADING FOR CHAIN OR ROPE CURTAINS R VALANCES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 704,799, dated July 15, 1902.
Application filed February 18, 1902. Serial No. 94,657. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, WILLIAM S. HEPBURN and ALEXANDER G. Monnrson, of the cityof St. Louis, State of Missouri, have invented certain newand useful Improvements in Adj ustable Chain-Headings for- Chain or Rope Curtains or Valances, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference beinghad to the accompanying drawings,
forming a part hereof.
Our invention relates to adjustable chainheadings for chain or rope curtains and valances; and it consists of the novel construction, combination, and arrangement of parts i 5 hereinafter shown, described, and claimed.
Our object is to construct an adjustable chain-heading for chain and other curtains, so that the heading may be expanded or contracted to fit windows or openings of differzo ent sizes and so that the heading maybe rigidly fixed in position after it has been adjusted and mounted; and our invention c0nsists of a suitable pole vor bar having a flat side, clips or hangers slidingly mounted upon 2 5 the pole or bar, said clips or hangers having a fiat side to fit the flat side of the pole or bar,
a chain or cord connecting said clips or hangers together in series, and loops connected to the chain or cord, there being one loop halfway between each of said clips or hangers,
said loops being adapted to receive the hooksattached to the curtains, said chain or "cord being long enough to hang loosely between the clips or hangers. Figure 1 is aview in elevation of one of the upper corners of a window, door, or other opening, showing our improved adjustable heading for chain or rope curtains in position for use, parts being broken away to economize space. Fig. 2 is a view analogous to Fig. 1, showing the details of our invention upon an enlarged scale. Fig. 3 is a crosssection on the line 3 3 of Fig. 2. Fig. 4 is a perspective of the clip or hanger.
Referring to the drawings in detail, the window or door opening has a vertical casing 5 and a horizontal upper casing 6, joined to the corner-piece 7. The pole or bar 8 is semicircular in cross-section, and the fiat upper side 50 9 is adapted to fit against the lower face of the .the parallel portions 14: and 15 extending downwardlyfrom the ends of the portions 12 and 13 and having openings 16, through which the links of the chain or cord 17 may be passed. The clips or hangers 10 are slidingly mounted upon the pole or bar 8, and the cord or chain 17 connects said clips or hangers, said cord being long enough to hang looselybetween the clips or hangers, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2. The ornamental balls 18 are attached to the chain or cord half-way between the clips or hangers, and the loops 19 are attached to the lower sides of the balls, said loops being adapted to receive thehooks of the curtains. The clips or hangers are loosely mounted upon the pole 8 and spaced suitable dis tances apart. Then the pole is placed in position against the lower face of the upper casing 6, and screws 20 areinserted through the 7 5 pole or bar 8 into the casing 6, as required, to hold the pole or bar adj ustably in position. After the screws have been inserted through the bar into the casing the clips or hangers are accurately adjusted and spaced upon the pole or bar. Then the screws 20 are tightened, as required, to grip the clips or hangers between the pole or bar and the casing and hold the clips or hangers rigidly in position. 85
It is obvious that the device may be adjusted to openings, windows, or doors of different widths within the limits of the length of the chain or cord 17 On narrow openings the hangers will be closer together and on wider openings they will be farther apart.
It is obvious that when the screws 20 have been tightened the clips or hangers will depend straight down from the pole or bar and will not swing backwardly or forwardly, as is 9 5 thecase where loose circular rings are mounted upon a round pole.
We claim 1. An adjustable chain-heading for chain or rope curtains, comprising a pole or bar hav- I00 ing a flat upper face and adapted to be adjustably secured to the lower face of the upper casing of the opening; clips or hammers slidingly mounted upon the pole or bar; a chain or rope connecting said clips or hangers together in series, said chain or rope being long enough to hang loosely between said clips or hangers; and loops connected to said chain or rope half-way between the clips or hangers and adapted to receive the hooks of the curtain; substantially as specified.
2. In a device of the class described, a pole or bar having a fiat side, said flat side being adapted to engage the lower face of the cas-
