Abstract:
A window blind, wherein each ladder tape thereof includes two longitudinal cords, plural bearers and plural limiting members. The longitudinal cords each have an end connected to a deflecting mechanism disposed on the upper rail. The bearers are disposed between the two longitudinal cords for respectively supporting the slats. The limiting members include a first limiting member and a second limiting member neighboring thereto. The first limiting member has an end disposed on one of the longitudinal cords and includes a first slat-through portion located between two ends thereof passing through a first through hole of a first slat. A first linking loop is formed after the first slat-through portion passes through the first through hole. The second limiting member passes through the first linking loop for keeping the first through hole threaded through by one of the first limiting member and the second limiting member.
Abstract:
A window blind includes a first rail, a second rail, a plurality of slats, a modulation mechanism, and an adjustment unit. The modulation mechanism includes a modulation shaft which can drive two warps of the ladder tape to make a relative movement in a vertical direction, whereby to modulate the slats to turn. When the slats are turned from a first position to a second position, the adjustment unit moves a rear cord which is used to move the second rail, whereby to change a length of a segment of the rear cord between a bottom edge of the first rail and a top edge of the second rail. In this way, the second rail could be turned along with the slats which are driven by the modulation shaft, and the problem of light leakage could be improved.
Abstract:
A position-fixing system includes a pole, a guiding member adjacent to the pole, and a movable member fitting around the pole. The pole is immovable relative to a window covering. The guiding member includes a principal axis parallel to an extension axis of the pole, and includes a retaining face substantially extending in the direction of the principal axis, but non-coplanar with it. The movable member corresponds to the retaining face. The movements of the movable member and the guiding member are related to that of a shaft of the window covering. When the window covering is being operated, the movable member is driven to rotate around the pole, and moves along the pole and the guiding member. Due to the retaining face, the movable member keeps contacting the pole to create a friction therebetween. Therefore, the position of a covering material of the window covering can be precisely fixed.
Abstract:
A control structure for a window covering includes a base, a revolving wheel having an axial post, a restriction means including a bushing fitting around the axial post, a transmission member provided on a side of the bushing, and at least one pawl connected to the axial post. The revolving wheel is connected to the base. The restriction means has at least one cutting groove. The transmission member has at least one abutting portion on an inner wall thereof. The pawl is pivotable within a width of the cutting groove. When the revolving wheel is rotated forward, an end of the pawl passes through the cutting groove to mesh with the abutting portion. When the revolving wheel is rotated backward, the pawl disengages from the abutting portion, and the transmission member is rotatable relative to the revolving wheel. Whereby, it could prevent generating noise while operating the window covering.
Abstract:
An arched window covering having shade mount with a base, at least a spacer, and two rails wherein a shade is mounted on the shade mount and the width of the spacer is adjustable and positioned on the base such that the rails movably engage the base and a length of the shade mount is changeable by changing the width of the spacer to thereby adapt to a differing size of a shade mounted on the shade mount by adjusting the spacer rather than cutting the rail to fit the windows with different sizes.
Abstract:
An apparatus for raising and lowering a covering member of a window covering includes a sliding base, a first biasing device, a connecting device, and a second biasing device. The sliding base is moved between a first position and a second position in a headrail. The first biasing device has two first biasing members to urge the sliding base toward the first position. The connecting device is moved between a third position and a fourth position in the headrail. The second biasing device has a second biasing member to urge the connecting device toward the third position. The second biasing member of the second biasing device is added at a middle of raising the covering member to help the covering member totally received close to or in the headrail.
Abstract:
A resistance device includes a base having a channel, a friction member provided in the base, and a moving member adjacent to the friction member, wherein the moving member is located in the channel and is movable therein. A window covering applied with the resistance device includes a covering material and a lifting cord concurrently movable with the covering material. When the covering material is being retracted or extended, the lifting cord moves in two opposite directions, respectively. The lifting cord passes through the resistance device. When the lifting cord moves in either direction, it drives the moving member to move in the same direction as itself. The friction member provides different resistances to the lifting cord which moves in different directions.
Abstract:
A window blind includes a housing, a slat assembly, a slat angle adjusting device, and a first cord. The slat assembly is provided below the housing, and has multiple slats and a bottom end portion. The slat angle adjusting device includes a rotating shaft assembly provided in the housing, and a ladder assembly which includes at least two ladders connected to the rotating shaft assembly for turning the slats. The first cord passes on a front or a rear side of the slats, and connects the rotating shaft assembly and the bottom end portion. Throughout the duration of the rotation of the rotating shaft assembly, the first cord and a warp, which belongs to the ladder assembly and on the same side as the first cord, are both reeled into or out of the housing concurrently, and the slats and the bottom end portion are all rotated concurrently as well.
Abstract:
A fixing assembly is adapted to fix a main body of a roller shade to an environment, and is adapted to be installed at an end of a roller tube of the main body. The fixing assembly includes a fixing member, which corresponds to the roller tube when installed, and a fixing support corresponding to the fixing member. The fixing member includes a connecting portion and a snap-fitting portion connected to the connecting portion with an end thereof exposed out. The connecting portion can be connected to the end of the roller tube, whereby to fix the fixing member to the roller tube. The fixing support includes a fixing portion and a snap-fitted portion provided on a surface of the fixing portion facing the fixing member. The snap-fitting portion is detachably connected to the fixing support, and can be optionally engaged with the snap-fitted portion at different positions.
Abstract:
A light blocking system is disclosed, which is adapted to be used in a vertical blind which includes a headrail, a control mechanism provided in the headrail, and a covering assembly including a plurality of slats. Each of the slats is connected to the control mechanism with an end thereof, and therefore is hung below the headrail. A gap is left between the covering assembly and the headrail. The control mechanism is adapted to turn the slats in situ relative to the headrail, or to move the slats back and forth in a longitudinal direction of the headrail. The light blocking system includes a cover plate provided corresponding to the gap, wherein the cover plate covers the gap when the covering assembly is in a closed state.
