UNITED STATES PATEN o WINDOW-CURTAIN BRACKET.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Feb. 19,1907.
Application filed October 29, 1906. Serial No. 341,017.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, LILLIAN E. GILL- MORE, a citizen of the United States, residing at Huron, in the county of Erie and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Window-Curtain Brackets, and do declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, which will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
This invention has reference to swinging brackets for window-curtains; and the invention consists in a bracket adapted to have a curtain secured thereon and to be attached to the window-casing in such manner as to swing to position in front of the window and back against the wall and which is provided with means to lock the bracket in any position, all substantially as shown and described, and particularly pointed out in the claims.
Referring to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, Figure 1 is a perspective view of a window, showing a pair of brackets connected therewith. Fig. 2 is an enlarged longitudinal elevation, partly in section, of one of my improved brackets; and Fig. 3 is a cross-section on line 00 m, Fig. 2. Fig. 4 is a modification.
In the drawings thus shown the bracket comprises a vertical standard or upright 2, an arm 3, projecting horizontally from the top of the standard and rigid therewith, and angle-brace 4, extending from the base of the standard to the forward part of said arm and made in a separate piece. Now having a bracket as thus described I make provision, first, for its attachment to a window-casing, and to this end I employ a supporting-plate 6, adapted to be fixed by screws or their equivalent to said casing, Fig. 1, and provided in this instance with ears 7 at its front, in or upon which upright or standard 2 of the bracket is rotatably mounted, said standard being inserted from above through ears 7 and afterward braced by part 4. The second detail in this connection is means for positively fixing the bracket in adjusted position before the window. To this end I construct standard 2, Fig. 2, with an axial bore in its lower end and into which a screw 8 is thread ed from beneath. Said screw has a preferably ornamental head which bears against the fiat horizontal end of brace 4, and by drawing the parts together frictionally locks the bracket on ears 7. Said brace is provided with a hole to engage over the end of standard 2 flush with its end. In this way not only a single bracket can be fastened, but the pair of brackets can be placed on a win dow and held in alinement. By placing the tightening means of the bottom of the bracket it can be easily reached from the floor in most dwellings and is easily available to the housekeeper in fixing the curtains. Lastly, the bracket is constructed to secure the curtain or portiere thereon by means of a clamping strip or piece 9 rather than by pins, hooks, or the like and which are objectionable on many accounts, as is well known. To this end I round arm 3 over its top, crosswise at least, and employa clamping-strip 9, which is semicircular or rounded in crosssection to fit over said arm, and a single thumb-screw 10 at each end outside the curtain and engaged in the ends of the bracket serve to adj ustably fasten said strip.
Fig. 4 shows a modification of the bracket in which the tubular arm 3 is provided with an extensible rod or tube 10, which can be fixed by means of set-screw 12 to go with almost any size of window wider than the plain bracket alone is able to cover. Otherwise this bracket is constructed and adapted to be used the same as the other style.
What I claim is 1. In curtain-fixtures, a supporting member'having a pair of ears, in combination with a curtain-supporting bracket comprising a tubular standard engaged in said ears and an arm 3 rigid with said standard and resting on the upper of said ears, a separate brace 4 extending at an inclination from the bottom of said arm beneath the lower of said ears and a screw bearing against said arm from beneath and engaged with said standard and adapted to frictionally lock the bracket in any desired position.
2. In curtain-fixtures, a supporting-plate 6 provided with ears 7 on its face, a bracket consisting of a standard 2 and a horizontal arm 3 rigidly connected and rotatably supported in said ears, an inclined brace 4 supporting said arm and having its lower end en- In testimony whereof I sign this specificagage over the end of said standard 2 and tion in the presence of two Witnesses. shaped to rest horizontally beneath and I LILLIAN E GILLMORE.
against lower ear 7, and a screw 8 engaged in 5 the end of said standard 2 and bearing against Witnesses:
said brace, whereby said parts are clamped H. T. FIsLEN, together substantially as described. 1 R. A. KETCHAM.
