Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Aug. 28, 1906.
A ii i n fil d November 25,1905. Serial No. 289,130.
To all whom, it nut concern.-
Be it known that 1, JAMES H. REYNOLDS, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Huntington, in the county of Cabell and State of l/Vest Virginia, have invented new and useful Improvements in Curtain- Pole and Shade-Bracket Supports, of which the following is a specification.
The invention relates to a combined curtain-pole and shade-bracket support adapted for adjustable connection with the windowcasing.
The main object of the present invention is the production of a curtain-pole and shadebracket combined constructed in two parts and arranged for adjustment to accommo date windows of different widths, adjustable means being provided whereby the support may be maintained in proper horizontal position without regard to any defective setting of the window-casing.
The preferred details of construction will be described in the following specification, reference being had particularly to the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is a perspective view illustrating the construction and application of my improved support. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal central section through the support. Fig. 3 is an end elevation of the support. Fig. 4 isa similar view taken from the opposite end. Fig. 5 is a longitudinal section through the sleeve of one of the brackets, illustrating particularly the adjustable connection of the hanger. Fig. 6 is a transverse section through one of the brackets.
Referring particularly to the accompanying drawings, it will be noted that my improved support comprises two independent members, each including a hollow rod, a bracket plate fixed thereto, and a hanger adjustably connected to the plate. These members, with the exception of the details hereinafter noted, are duplicates, and a detailed description of one will suffice for both. Each member comprises a hollow rod 1 and a bracket 2, comprising a plate of ornamental outline and arranged at a right angle to the plane of the rod. By preference the plate is formed to provide a forwardlyprojecting portion 3, in which the rod 1 is secured, the main extent of the plate lying wholly in rear of the rod and extending above and below the same. The support-hangers comprise rod-like members 4, laterally bent 1 at their upper ends, as at 5, and extending downwardly from the portion 5 in the form of a spur 6, arranged parallelto and spaced from the rod 4. The rear edge of the plate 2 is arranged to slidably receive the support-hanger, being for this purpose rolled or otherwise formed to provide a vertically-extending sleeve 7 of an interior diameter to slidably receive the rod 4 and extending the full length of the plate 2. The wall of this sleeve is formed with a longitudinally-arranged slot 8, adapted to receive the shank of a set-screw 9, designed for threaded connection with the rod 4. By this construction the rod may be adjusted longitudinally relative to the bracket to the extent desired.
The forward edge of one of the brackets, beneath and in rear of the rod 1, is formed with an opening 10 for the reception of the pintle of the shade-roller, while the forward edge of the other bracket is formed with a slotted opening 11, designed to receive the squared or looking pintle of the shade-roller. The opening 11 is preferably shaped to provide a downwardly-inclined rear portion to prevent accidental disengagement of the roller-pintle when in place. I
The rods 1 are designed for telescopic engagement, as clearly illustrated in the drawings, for which, of course, one of said rods will have an exterior diameter approximately equal to the interior diameter of the other. These rods are to be of such length as to permit their relative movements to position the brackets to accommodate windows of any particular width.
The rods I extend beyond the brackets 2 for a short distance, as at 12, to provide for the reception of the usual ornamental knobs provided for the ends of the curtain-pole, such knobs in the present instance having ornamental heads 13 and studs 14, designed to telescopically engage the sections 12 of the rods. By this construction the knobs may be adjusted relative to the rods to the extent desired. In use the combined curtain-pole and shade-roller support is adjusted to space the brackets 2 to the extent necessitated by the width of the window and the device sup ported by engaging the hangers 4 with the l upper edge of the window-casing. The respective hangers are adjusted longitudinally relative to the brackets to position the curtain-pole in a true horizontal position without regard to the defective set of the windowcasing. In this position the combined rods I serve as a curtain-pole, while the openings 10 and 11 are adapted for the convenient reception of the shade-roller.
The structure is made wholly of metal, and owing to the hollow formation of the rods 1 and the fact that the brackets 2 are thin metallic plates the device is very light. The rear edge of the brackets rest against the casing and maintain the curtain-pole in spaced relation thereto.
Having thus described the invention, what I claim is 1. A combined curtain-pole and shaderoller support comprising two members, each including a rod, a bracket secured to the rod, the rear edge of the bracket being rolled to provide a longitudinally extending sleeve,
and a support-hanger slidably mounted in the sleeve.
2. A combined curtainpole and shaderoller support comprising two members, each including a rod, a bracket secured to the rod,
- the rear edge of the bracket being rolled to provide a longitudinally-extending sleeve, a support-hanger having a spur end and slidably mounted in the sleeve, means for securing said hanger in adjusted position longitudinally of the sleeve, pole-knobs adapted for adjustable connection with one end of the rod, and shade-roller recesses formed in the forward edges of the brackets, said rods being adapted for telescopic connection to adjust the -width of the support.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
