FREDERICK HANNEMANN, OF GREAT FALLS, MONTANA.
WIN DOW-SHADE BRACKET.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Nov. 17, 1908.
Application filed February 29, 1908. Serial No. 18,586.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, Fnnonmox I-IANNE- MANN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Great Falls, in the county of Cascade and State of Montana, have invented new and useful Improvements in Window-Shade Brackets, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to window shade brackets, and broadly and generally speaking, it consists of a pair of base plates, each of which is designed to be permanently secured to one side of the jamb or frame of a window casing, and of a pair of bracket plates which are adapted to be adjustably mounted upon the base plates. The bracket plates are provided with bracket arms which are disposed at the relatively inner ends thereof to support the shade roller. hen the bracket arms are so disposed, the distance between them can be increased approximately equal to the combined lengths of the base plates by adjusting the bracket plates on the base plates. WVhen the bracket plates are reversed, the bracket arms are dis posed at the relatively outer ends of said plates, and the distance between the bracket arms can be increased approximately equal to the combined lengths of the base plates and bracket arms.
One object of my invention is the provision of a shade bracket wherein the bracket arm is provided on opposite sides with bearings or notches so as to permit the bracket plate to be reversed on the base plate.
A further object of my invention is the provision of a shade bracket wherein the bracket arm is formed of two relatively spaced members, each of which is provided with a bearing or a notch.
A still further object of my invention is the provision of a shade bracket which is simple, durable and efficient, and which can be manufactured and sold at a comparatively low cost.
\Vith the above and other objects in view, the invention consists in the construction, combination and arrangement of parts hereinafter fully described, claimed and illustrated in the accompanying drawing, wherein:
Figure l is a plan view of a bracket plate constructed in accordance with my invention. Fig. 2 is a View in end elevation thereof, illustrating the bracket arm provided with bearings. Fig. 3 is a similar view illustrating the bracket arm provided with the notches. Fig. i is a view similar to Fig. 3, looking at the bracket arm in the opposite direction. Fig. 5 is a plan view illustrating the construction of the base plate and the manner in which the bracket plate is adjustably secured thereon. Fig. (3 is a view in end elevation of the base plate and bracket plate. Fig. 7 is a vertical sectional view taken on the plane indicated by the line 77 of Fig. 5, and Fig. 8 is a plan view of a portion of the blank from which the bracket plate is constructed.
As before stated, the brackets are employed in pairs and are similar in construction, except that they are respectively adapted to receive and support the journal at one end of the shade roller and the angular end of the spring shaft at the opposite end thereof. Each bracket comprises a base plate 1, which is comparatively long and narrow, and is formed with any desired number and arrangement of openings 2 to receive screws or like fastenings to secure the same to the window frame or casing. Upon the outer surface of the base plate is arranged a bracket plate 3, which is coextensive in length therewith but of somewhat less width, the upper and lower longitudinal edges of the base plate being formed with flanges 4: which form guides for the side edges 5 of the bracket plate, which is thus secured to the base plate for longitudinal adjustment thereon. A set screw 6 is mounted upon the bracket plate and works in one of a pair of openings 7 therein, and is adapted to impinge against the base plate to secure the bracket plate in its adjusted position. Projecting outwardly from one of the ends of the bracket plate is a bracket arm 8 or S, accordingly as the bracket is designed to support the journal of the shade roller or the angular end of the spring shaft thereof. The bracket arm consists of a pair of parallel members 9 and 10 which are integrally connected together at their relatively outer ends. The free end of the member 10 is secured to the member 9 through the medium of embracing lugs 11, which are formed integrally with the member 10, as fully disclosed in the drawing. The mem bers 9 and 10 are dished laterally, as at 12, the dished portions 12 of the bracket arm 8 being provided with bearings 13, while the dished portions 12 of the bracket arm 8 are provided with notches 14:. One of the notches let extends from a point above the longitudinal center of the bracket arm 8 to and opens out through the relatively lower edge thereof, while the other notch extends from a point below the longitudinal center of the bracket arm to and through the relatively upper edge thereof. It should be apparent from the relative arrangement of the notches 1-1 and the provision of a bearing in each side of the bracket arm 8 that the bracket plates 3 may be applied to the base plates 1 to position the bracket arms 8 at the relatively inner or outer ends thereof. The dished portions 12 of the members 9 and 10 space the notches M and thereby permit of their relative arrangement. The member 9 is by preference formed integrally with the bracket plate 3, it being thus apparent that the bracket plate and bracket arm can be struck up from a single sheet of suitable material in a single operation.
From the foregoing description taken in connection with the accompanying drawing, the construction and mode of operation of the invention should be understood without a further extended description.
Having fully described and illustrated my invention, what I claim is:
1. A shade bracket including a bracket arm consisting of a pair of dished members provided with notches or bearings, the concaved sides of the members being arranged in opposition to space the notches or bearings. 2. A shade bracket including a bracket arm consisting of a pair of parallel members formed with dished portions having notches or bearings, the concaved sides of the dished portions being arranged in opposition to space the notches or bearings, the members being integrally connected together at their outer ends and connected together at their inner ends by means of lugs formed upon one member and embracing the other.
8. A shade bracket including a bracket arm consisting of a pair of dished members provided with notches, one of the notches extending from a point above the longitudinal center of the bracket arm to and opening out through the relatively lower edge thereof, while the other notch extends from a point below the longitudinal center of the bracket arm to and through the upper edge thereof, the concaved sides of the members being arranged in position to space the notches.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
FREDERICK HANNEMANN.
