SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 740,090, dated September 29, 1903. Application filed Deee'm'be: 26|-1QOZ. Serial No. 136,72 3. No model.) I

To (all whom it'may concern:

Be it known that I, GEORGE V. COHEN, a citizen of the United States, residing atAllegheny, in the county of Allegheny and State application of the curtain to the ring.

of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Curtain Support Rings, of which improvement the following is a specification.

This invention relates to'ncw and useful improvements in curtain-support rings.

".he invention has for its object the provision of a simple and comparatively inexpensive pole-ring whereby the curtain is supported and easily and quickly atta h d and detached.

In the accompanying drawings I have by various views illustrated my improved ring and the manner in which the same is employed in practice, in which drawings- Figurel is an end .view of a curtain-pole in section, showing the ring thereon and the Fig. 2 is a front view of the same. Fig. 3 is a side view of the ringgpartly in section, as it would appear when not in use. Fig. 4 is a rear view of said rin Fig. 5. is a vertical sectional view through the ring.

Further referenceto said 'views,collectivel v, for a detailed description of the improved ring, thenumeral l designates the curtainpole, 2 the curtain, and 3 the rin The ring is formed from a strip of sheet metal of concavo-convex form in cross-section, bent at its middle to form a ring, one extremity 4. of said strip being flattened and provided with an elongated opening 5, while the other extremity 6 is formed in a reverse conc'avo-convex form in cross section from that of the body and provided witlrthe small oppositely-extended bands 7 for securing the curtain-snpporting hook S thereto, said bands being formed into the strip end by slitting the metal laterally and forcing the same into the desired form by means of a suitable punch or press. The extremities of the ring-strip are bent into an approximately parallel position or in line with the ring center, and to the inner side of the concave-convex extremity at the said bands 7 is firmly soldered thesaid curtain-supporting hook 8, so that the point will project through the elongated opening in the other extremity, said concave-convex extremity being also provided upon its outer vex extremity may be dispensed with and the hooks soldered direct thereto.

A curtain-support ring of this character is easily and quickly applied to the curtain, can be manufactured at nominal cost, and will be found very serviceable.

Having thus fully shown and described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire tos'ecure by Letters Patent, is-

1. A curtain-supportadapted for use with curtaiu-poles,con1pris in ga strip of metal having an opening in one extremity and bent at its middle into a ring to engage on the pole both extremities ofsaid strip projecting from the ring in approximate parallel relation, and a hook on the imper'wrated extremity to extend through theo -.ing in the other adapted to pass through and support the curtain.

2. A curtain-support adapted for use with curtain-poles,comprisingastrip of metal having an opening in one extremity and bent at its middle into a ring to engage on the pole both extremities of said strip projecting from the ring in approximate parallel relation, and a hook on the imperforated extremity to extend through the opening in the other adapted to pass through and support the curtain, said ring portion of the strip being of concaveconvcx form in cross-section.

3. A curtain-support adapted for use with curtain-poles,comprisinga strip of metal having an opening in' one extremity and bent at its middle portion into a ring to engage 0n the pole both extremities of said strip projecting from the ring portion in approximate parallel relation, and a. hook on one of said extremities to extend through the opening in the other to support the curtain, said ring portion of said strip being of concave-convex form in cross-section and the hook extremity of reve-rse concave-convex form.

i. A curtain support adapted for use with metal having-an opening in one extremity and bent at its middle into a ring to engage on and slitted keepers on the other and bent at its middle portion into a ring to engage on the pole both extremities projecting frorn the ring portion in approximate parallel relation, and a hook secured to the keepers on one of said extremities to extend into the opening of the other to support the curtain, said extremity with the opening therein adapted to yield and clamp the curtain to said hook.

6. A curtain-support adapted for use with curtain-poles, comprising a strip of spring metal having an openingin one extremity and slitted keepers on the other and bent at its middle'portion into a ring to engage on" the pole hot'n extremities of said strip projecting fromthe ring portion in approximate parallel relation, and a hook secured to the keepers on one of said extremities to extend into the opening in the other to support the curtain, said extremity with the opening therein adaptedto yieldand clamp the curtain to said hook, said ring being concavo: convex in cross-section and the hook-carryiu g extremity of opposite but like form in crosssection.

In testimony whereof I have hereunto signed 'my name in the presence of two suosoribing'wit-nesses.
