SPECIFICATION forming part of 'Letters Patent No. 740,610,'dated October 6,1903.
Application filed July 1'7, 1901.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE WOLFE,a citizen New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Curtain-Fixtures, of which the following is a specification. 1
The object of my invention is to provide a blind in which not only the shade or shades forming a part of the blind shall be adjustable, but in which the blind as a whole, including the shades or shades and its or their supports, shall be likewise movable vertically or lengthwise of the window or other opening intended to be shaded or protected and adapted to be held at any point in or along the said window or other opening, whereby any desired adjustment and position of the blind may be obtained and the quantity of light admitted through the window or other opening at any or at one or more portions thereof may be easily and completely controlled.
The invention also consists in the novel features of construction and combination of parts and devices hereinafter set forth.
In the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, Figure 1 represents a front elevation of a window having a blind embodying my invention secured thereto, the blind being shown in one adjusted position by dotted lines. Fig. 2 represents a side eleline 2 2 of Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a detail view in perspective of the brackets shown in Fig. 2. Fig. 4: is a detail view showing another form of bracket with the shades secured therein, the shades and adj Listing-roller being shown in section. Fig. 5 is a detail view representifing a side elevation of the bracket shown in The blind consists of one or more shades A, that are secured in a holder B, which holder is adjustable on or'along suitable guides or ways 0. Said guides or ways may consist of cords, rods, cables, or equivalent means secured to arms or brackets c, placed at or near each end of the window or other opening. The holder comprises two brackets 79, which are secured to the guides in any suitable man- $erial No. 68,588. (No model.)
ner as b flanges b havin perforations b 7 7 CI k therein to receive the guides and permit the brackets to pass freely over same. The holder is moved or adjusted upon or along the guides by means of cords 'd and d, secured thereto.
Preferably a spring-roller d of the ordinary construction is secured to the brackets and the cords d d are fastened thereto at or near its ends and to the top of the window or to one end of the opening, so that the brackets will vbe automatically raised when the detent in the roller is released in the usual manner by means ofa quick jerk on the cord (Z.
' The shade or shades A are mounted, preferably, upon the' ordinary shade -rollers ct, which are secured to the brackets in the usual manner by means of slots or perforations a. Each shade is provided with a cord a whereby it may be unrolled. If desired, two or more shades of different colors or texture. may be secured to the same brackets by providing them with corresponding arms 12 having slots or openings 12 therein to receive the shaderollers.
Heretofore it has been necessary to provide separate shades at the top and bottom of a window or at each end of an opening in order to permit any particular part thereof to be shaded or protected and to regulate thequantity or quality of the light admitted through the window or other opening. By means of this improved blind the necessity for two separate shades and their accompanying fixtures is'obviated, and any partof the window or other opening can be either protected or exposed by a single shade or blind. This construction is particularly desirable in hospitals, sanitariums, and similar institutions, since it permits the position of the entire blind to be changed, so that a free circulation of air or free unobstructed light can be obtained through one'portion of the window or other opening while the other portion is shaded or protected. It is also desirable-in photograph or art galleries and like places where accurate control of the quantity and quality of light is desirable.
It is obvious that the brackets or holders may be provided with a plurality of arms to receive any desired number of shades of any variety of colors," and it is likewise obvious that the precise shape of the holders and guides and the means for moving the holders is immaterial.
Although this invention has been described and illustrated as applied to the construction of Window shades and blinds for controlling the emission of light, it will be understood ience in handling and storing such articles shall exist. a T j M I claim as myInVention The combination with a window or opening having guides arranged adjacent to the edges thereof, of a holderon said guides comprising brackets having a pluralityf'o f islots or openings thereon, shade-rollers mounted in said slots or openings, and a spring-roller 0 also mounted on said brackets below said shade-rollers and adapted to move the holder on the guides and retain same in its adjusted position, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I sign this applica- 5 tion, in the presence of two witnesses, this 2d day of July, 1901.
GEORGE XVOLFE.
