Abstract:
A modular track system for hanging a curtain, the track system consisting of modules or sections with attachments and accessories designed to adjust to varying environments and specifications. Track shape and length are adjusted by specifying various combinations of the specialized components created as part of the system. Complementing the track system is a curtain with integrated loop fasteners which allows the curtain to be attached and removed without removing the track. The system further preferably includes a side support for use in attached the track to a fixed support in the environment, and a guiderail on the side of the track on one or more track sections, the track and curtain all being coordinated to form an efficient and improved curtain hanging system.
Abstract:
A space creating shower liner can have a window with a hoop fin rotatably and removably engaging a shower rod, a plurality of stiffening folds providing partial stiffness to the window, and a height less than a distance from the shower rod to a tub. Further, a liner can be removably engaged to the window, comprising a liner height less than the distance from the shower rod to the tub. The hoop fin causes the window and the liner to rotate about the shower rod, and the height and the liner height is greater than or equal to the distance from the shower rod to the tub.

A curtain assembly comprises a rotatable drive element wherein at least one helical guide structure is formed on, or into, the outer surface of the drive element. A drive attachment element having a structure that communicates with the helical guide structure to move the drive attachment element axially along the drive element when the drive element is rotated. Specific embodiments incorporate either a manual or motor-driven rotation assembly for rotating the drive element. Further specific embodiments involve a helical guide structure that comprises a helical groove and a structure that comprises a tooth that engages with the helical groove. Further specific embodiments relate to a system with linked horizontal drapery panels having varying characteristics that are moved independently by a common drive system.
Abstract:
La présente invention a pour objet un ensemble de support de rideau comprenant une barre de rideau (1) et au moins un élément de support destiné à être fixé à une paroi et à porter ladite barre de rideau (1) dans une position sensiblement horizontalement pour permettre le coulissement d'au moins un anneau (4) autour de la barre de rideau (1), ladite barre de rideau (1) présentant une section qui comporte au moins une arête (11), et ledit élément de support étant conformé pour maintenir ladite barre de rideau (1) dans une position dans laquelle ladite arête (11) est orientée vers le haut.
Abstract:
A drapery configured to decoratively cover a window area, including a rod; and a drape suspended from the rod by a plurality of spaced rings. The drapery also includes a spacing cable coupled to the drape between a pair of spaced rings by coupling members and sized to restrict a maximum spacing between the spaced rings. The spacing cable is flexible and includes decorative members coupled about the cable. The spacing cable is coupled between a pair of adjacent rings to prevent the rings from being fully extended, thereby preserving aesthetic qualities of the drapery. The coupling members are lobster claw clamps and the decorative members are beads. The drapery also includes a plurality of crimp beads coupled to the cable and configured to restrict lateral motion of the decorative members.
Abstract:
L'invention concerne un œillet (O) du type de celui constitué de deux demi-coques (100 et 200) s ' assemblant par clipsage s 'utilisant comme bordure et /ou renfort de perforations dans des rideaux, des textiles ou matériaux similaires, les deux demi-coques (100 et 200) venant en prise mutuellement par clipsage, une des deux demi-coques (100 et 200) comportant une pluralité d'ergots (120) saillant de sa face tournée vers l'intérieur de l'autre demi-coque (200) et dont les pointes (121) s'introduisent dans une rainure annulaire circulaire (220) ménagée à cet effet dans la surface intérieure de l'autre demi-coque (200). Cet oeillet est notamment remarquable en ce que lesdits ergots (120) présentent un corps adoptant une section polygonale. Applications : renfort et bordure des perforations et trous pratiqués dans tout matériau.
Abstract:
Aufhängeeinheit für eine Vorhangeinrichtung mit wenigstens einer Vorhangführung und wenigstens einem Vorhang, der an mehreren der Aufhängeeinheiten mit einem Führungselement (3) zur Führung der Aufhängeeinheit in der Vorhangführung aufgehängt ist. Die Aufhängeeinheit weist einen Körper (1) auf, an den sich eine Vorhangaufhängung (2) zur Befestigung eines Vorhangs an der Aufhängeeinheit und das Führungselement (3) anschliesst. Zumindest der Körper (1) besteht aus wenigstens zwei unterschiedlichen Materialteilen (20, 30), die sich in ihrer Härte unterscheiden.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a curtain, such as a pleated hospital cubicle curtain, having a plurality of glider retaining formations positioned at or near an edge of the curtain, and a plurality of gliders for securing the curtain to a curtain rail, each said glider comprising engaging means for releasably securing each said glider to a said glider retaining formation at a predetermined position in relation to the curtain edge. Motion of the gliders with respect to each said glider retaining formation, and thus to the edge of the curtain, is restricted. Accordingly, the gliders may be readily aligned so as to facilitate rapid engagement with a curtain rail, for example, by folding of a pleated curtain. Subsequently, the curtain may be removed from the curtain rail for cleaning or replacement without the requirement to demount the gliders from the curtain rail, by releasing the gliders from the glider retaining formations. Furthermore, a single type of curtain is compatible with gliders adapted for use with any type of curtain rail and, in some embodiments of the invention, the curtain is eyeleted (the glider retaining formations being generally in the form of an eyelet) and is suitable for use with conventional hooks and gliders.
Abstract:
Es wird eine Vorrichtung zum Ausfädeln von Vorhanggleitern (1) aus einer Vorhangschiene (2) mit einer wenigstens einen Feststeller (4) aufnehmenden, hinterschnittenen Führungsnut (3) für die Vorhanggleiter (1) beschrieben, deren in die Führungsnut (3) eingreifende Gleiterköpfe (13) sich auf Randstegen (6) der Führungsnut (3) abstützende Gleitstücke (14) tragen, die beim Einführen der Gleiterköpfe (13) in die Vorhangschiene (2) quer zur Führungsnut (3) durch ein Anschlagen an die Randstege (6) gegen eine Rückstellkraft in eine den Durchtritt zwischen den Randstegen (6) freigebende Montagestellung verlagerbar sind.
