Abstract:
A vertical blind includes a headrail, a fixing bracket, a plurality of juxtaposed movable brackets, a drive bracket, a plurality of driven blocks, a plurality of drive blocks, a plurality of mounting seats, a plurality of shades, a pull cord unit, and a positioning unit. Thus, the vertical blind contains multiple movable brackets movable between the fixing bracket and the drive bracket, so that the length of the vertical blind is expanded freely to fit the size of the window, thereby enhancing the versatility of the vertical blind. In addition, the mounting seats have different lengths corresponding to the positions of the fixing bracket and the movable brackets, so that the movable brackets are movable smoothly without interfering with each other, thereby facilitating operation of the vertical blind.
Abstract:
A collapsing and securing device of a lateral blind includes a lateral blind such as a winding blind, a Roman blind, or a cloth blind, and a number of positioning members fixed at least on one surface of the window curtain, and the positioning members can temporarily adhere, stick or attract each other to secure the lateral blind at one of many collapsed position in case the lateral blind is manually wound up, without using pull ropes with a pool as used in a conventional lateral blind for preventing potential dangers involved in conventional lateral blinds. The collapsed lateral blind can be expanded down manually with easiness and quickness, with the temporarily adhered, stuck or attracted together positioning members separated from one another with easiness.
