Abstract

The gliders for a panel curtain hanger have a gliding member (33) at its one end and a through slot (50) at its other end. A recess (51) in the interior of the slot extends from one end of the slot but is not through. A ball chain (55, 63, 64, 65) is fastened in the glider by inserting a part of the cord located between two balls in the slot and then drawing a ball into the recess so that the ball get caught. In this way, one end of a panel curtain hanger (60, 61) is coupled to both ends of adjacent panel curtain hangers so that coupled motion is obtained between the panel curtain hangers.

Description

A method for obtaining coupled motion between panel curtain hangers and a glider for the same.
Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a method for obtaining coupled motion between panel curtain hangers that are individually slidable beside each other in a guide device and can be drawn from a position in which they essentially are situated beside each other to become situated in series. The invention also relates to a glider for panel curtain hangers.
Object of the Invention and Brief Description of the Invention
It is an object of the invention to obtain such coupled motion in a simple way. This is obtained by the fact that one end of a panel curtain hanger is connected by cords to both ends of the adjacent panel curtain hanger. A glider for a panel curtain hanger suited for the interconnection of panel curtam hangers is characterized by having a gliding member at its one end and at its other end having a through slot and a recess in the interior of the slot extending from one end of the slot but not being through.

Figure 8 corresponds to Figure 5 and shows a ball chain fastened in the glider.
Figure 9 shows, as seen from below, three panel curtain hangers according to Figure 2 mounted in the curtain rod according to Figure 1.
Figure 10 shows three panel curtain hangers connected by means of ball chains.
Description
Figure 1 shows a curtain rod 11 of extruded aluminium. It has folded-over edges with grooves 12,13 and it has two partition walls 14, 15 including edges so that three similar glide grooves 16,17,18 are provided. Figure 2 shows a hanger for panels consisting of a steel rod 30 having a glider 31,32 at each end. The gliders are suitably in plastic. A panel curtain may be hanged flatly on the rod 30. The gliders have gliding knobs 33 and are fastened on the rod 30 by screws 34 in screw holes 35.
Figure 3 shows a curtain arrangement including a bracket 20 having a support spring 22 that holds a curtain rod 21 as the one shown in Figure 1. In the glide groove 17, a panel curtain hanger, shown in figure 2, slides and in the groove 18, such a panel curtain hanger slides as well. Gliders of plastic may be formed so that they can be snapped into the grooves.
In Figure 3, a curtain rod 40 as the one shown in Figure 1 is also shown mounted as a cornice. It has been snapped into a snap groove on a holder 41. The height of the curtain rod may be varied since it can be snapped on at any one of the grooves 16,17,18. A curtain rod mounted in this way may also be used with conventional angle gliders in any one of the grooves 16-17, then forming both curtain rod and cornice.
Figures 4-7 show a glider of the previously shown kind from the side. In its end, opposite the gliding end, the glider has a through slot 50 and a recess or "bore" 51 extending from one side of the slot but not being through. Figure 8 corresponds to Figure 5 and shows a ball chain 55 that is fastened in the recess 51. The ball chain is fastened by first pushing the ball 56 a bit into the recess so that the ball 57 can be brought up past the corner 58 and then the ball 56 is drawn to the bottom of the recess. By the fact that the entire member is cast in plastic and has the slot 50, the ball 56 will be held in place by arising spring forces. The ball should have somewhat larger diameter than the recess 51. If the distance between the balls is equally large or larger than the length of the slot, it is not necessary to push in the ball 56 first, but the cord may be directly inserted between the balls all the way to the bottom of the slot. The recess 51 is of such a length that it is possible to push two balls into it. Thereby, it is possible to fasten two ball chains in the glider, such as shown in figures 11 and 12.
Figure 9 shows the curtain rod 21 in Figure 3 seen from below and having a panel curtain hanger 60,61,62 in each groove 16-18. The panel curtain hangers are shown shortened. Figure 10 shows the three panel curtain hangers in Figure 9 interconnected by cords in the form of ball chains in the way that is shown in Figure 7. The ball chains provide coupled motion between the panel curtain hangers in both directions. The ball chain 63 connects one end of the three panel curtain hangers 60,61,62 and provides coupled motion in one direction while the ball chains 64,65 provide coupled motion in the other direction. The figure shows the panel curtain hangers extended. The length of the ball chains is easily adapted so that desired overlapping is obtained between the panel curtains, or desired space between them.
The outermost glider 66 in the outermost panel curtain hanger 62 is not coupled by cords to any other panel curtain hanger, and this glider is suitably coupled to a pull rod, not shown. The pull rod is then coupled to the glider by a short ball chain. By means of the pull rod, it is possible to draw all the interconnected panel curtain hangers and obtain coupled motion in both directions.
It is possible to obtain coupled motion between panel curtain hangers by another cord than a ball chain and by means of another type of panel curtain hangers and guide device.
