SEVERIN, OF ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI.
ADJUSTABLE SHADE OR CURTAIN BRACKET.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Sept. 20, 1910.
Application filed September 8, 1908. Serial No. 451,995.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, lVAL'rnn E. Snvnnm, a citizen of the United States, and resident of St. Louis, Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Adjustable Shade or Curtain Brackets, of which the following is a. specification.
This invention relates to improvements in an adjustable shade or curtain bracket, and consists in the novel arrangement, construction and combination of parts as will be fully hereinafter described and claimed.
The object of my invention is to construct a bracket to be adjusted to accommodate various lengths of shade rollers or curtain poles and may be attached to the side or the under surface of a window-casing.
Figure 1 is a fragmental view of a window-casing showing my invention in two positions. Fig. 2 is a plan view of the blank of which the base portion of the bracket is constructed. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the base showing the sides bent to form the guides. Fig. 4 is a perspective view of my complete invention. 5 is an enlarged cross sectional view taken on the line 5-5 of Fig. 1 and viewin the same in the direction indicated by t e arrow. Fig. 6 is a detail perspective view of one of the brackets for supporting the square shank of the curtain roller.
In the construction of my invention, I provide the plate 7, stamped of a single sheet, the corners cut away forming the right-angular recesses 8 thereby forming a pair of side projections 9 and a pair of end projections 10, the side projections being bent upwardly and over forming guides 11 for the snugly fitting and adjustable movement of the shade or curtain retaining brackets 12. The end portions 10 are bent upwardly and over the edges of the guides as shown in Fig. 4 so as to prevent the brackets from becoming removed from its structed as to snugly fit between the baseplate and the guides. The plate 14 is also provided with a pair of upwardly projecting lugs 17 which come in contact with the inner ed es of the guides to prevent the bracket from twisting on the base. One of the brackets is provided with a round opening 18; the other with a rectangular elongated opening 19 for the insert-ion of the square end of the shade spindle.
As shown in Fig. 1, I show my device placed in two different positions on the window-casing; one on the front face of the casing; the other on the upper inner edge of the casing. In this manner when a pair of said brackets are placed on a window-casing, it will be unnecessary to cut the shade or curtain roller but by the adjustment of the brackets upon the base-plate, the various widths of shade rollers can be accommodated.
The essential feature of my invention is to dispense with the defacing of the woodwork of the window-casing by removing the shade brackets whenever it is desired to hang new shades or curtains. The device is retained in position against the casing bymeans of the screws 20 inserted through the countersunk screw openings 21 formed in the base-plate.
Having fully described my invention what I claim is:
An adjustable shade or curtain bracket comprising an elongated flattened baseplate stamped and formed of a single sheet, the sides of said base-plate being bent upwardly and inwardly forming guides; the ends of said plate being bent upwardly and inwardly over the ends of the guides and acting as stops; a bracket comprising a shank and a plate formed of integral material and bent at right angles, the sides thereof operating in the guides; and a pair of upwardly projecting lugs formed on the plate and contacting with the edges of the guides so as to prevent the bracket from binding while the same is being adjusted to its set position, substantially as specified.
In testimony whereof, I have signed my name to this specification, in presence of two subscribing witnesses.
