The pair of registry clips is operative to lift the bottom rail and the slats at two side portions thereof while holding the bottom rail and the slats therein. | 03-03-2011 |
20130319622 | STIFFENED PULL CORD FOR ARCHITECTURAL COVERINGS - A control element for actuating an operating mechanism for a retractable shade. The retractable shade having a flexible operating cord retractable and extendable from the operating mechanism, the flexible operating cord having a free end. The control element is attached to the flexible operating cord and includes a core having a length, the core being stiffened along the length so as to resist becoming entangled and an upper end of the length that is attached to the free end of the flexible operating cord. | 12-05-2013 |
20140027071 | WINDOW BLIND INSERT - A window blind insert for a round or octagon-shaped window includes a frame that can fit inside the window. The frame holds a support bracket onto which slats can be attached. A handle bracket can be used to pivot the slats between a closed configuration and an opened configuration. | 01-30-2014 |
20140048217 | CORD PROTECTION SLEEVE FOR CORDLESS BLINDS - A cord protection sleeve of cordless blinds includes a tubular and flexible body and extends through the slats. The cord freely extends through the cord protection sleeve. The cord protection sleeve has a first end and a second end, wherein the first end is fixed to the head box and the second end is fixed to the bottom bar. The cord protection sleeve is secured to the support ropes supporting the slats. Because the cord protection sleeve is secured to the support ropes, it cannot be pulled away from the blinds, thereby preventing the cord from wrapping around the limbs of kids. | 02-20-2014 |
20140290877 | SYSTEM FOR CONFINING LIFT CORDS IN COVERINGS FOR ARCHITECTURAL OPENINGS - A system for incorporation into a retractable covering that includes a flexible lift cord extending from a headrail to a bottom rail. The system includes a flexible protector of a length similar to that of an associated lift cord with the lift cord being operatively connected to the protector. The protector is in turn connected to a fabric extending between the headrail and the bottom rail at predetermined spaced locations so that any loop of protector formable is limited by the spacing between the locations at which the protector is connected to the fabric. The maximum size of a loop so formed in the protector and thus the lift cord associated therewith is insufficient to encapsulate a body part of a child or infant. | 10-02-2014 |
20150007947 | BOTTOM BAR FIXING DEVICE OF VENETIAN BLINDS - One aspect of the present invention provides a bottom bar fixing device of Venetian blinds comprising: at least on first fixing elements attached to a lower face of a bottom bar of the Venetian blinds each including an engaging portion having a plurality of hooks formed thereon and an operation portion extending outwardly and upwardly from the engaging portion; and at least one second fixing elements attached to a wall, each second fixing element having loops for engaging with the hooks of the first fixing element in order to hold the bottom bar to the wall when the Venetian blinds is in a fully extended state by engaging the first and the second fixing elements. | 01-08-2015 |
20150354271 | CONTROL DEVICE FOR CONTROLLING SLAT BLINDS UP AND DOWN - A control device for controlling blinds up and down includes a case and a shaft is rotatably located in the case.

The shaft securely extends through a passage of the mandrel which is co-rotatable with the shaft. A cover is mounted to the case and a gear unit is located on the cover. The gear unit includes a first bevel gear and a second bevel gear which is engaged with the first bevel gear which drives the second bevel gear. The second bevel gear is connected to the mandrel which is co-rotatable with the second bevel gear. The coil spring is wrapped to the mandrel and retrieved in the reception box when the blinds are lowered and lifted. | 12-10-2015 |
20160002974 | LED WINDOW BLINDS WITH WARM DIMMING CAPABILITY - A window blinds assembly includes a slat member, and a LED light strip coupled to the slat member. The light from the LED light strip projects through the slat member. | 01-07-2016 |
20160053533 | TRANSMISSION MECHANISM OF WINDOW COVERING - A transmission mechanism of a window covering includes a first lifting cord set, a second lifting cord set, and a driving cord set. The driving cord set has a cone reel and a control cord, wherein the cone reel has a gradually decreasing dimension, and the control cord winds around the cone reel and has a section left out of the headrail. The first and the second lifting cord sets each has a reel and a lifting cord, wherein the reel is driven by the cone reel, and the lifting cord has opposite ends fastened to the reel and the bottom rail respectively. The cone reel changes a speed and torque of the power transferred to the bottom rail while the user pulls the control cord to lift the bottom cord and the slats of the window covering in an efficient way. | 02-25-2016 |
20090139667 | Blind With Pockets - Forming, by weaving or warp knitting, a vertical blind comprising a single fabric sheet having a series of vertical panels. The vertical panels include at least one relatively translucent panel and a plurality of vertical pocket panels. The vertical blind can be formed by weaving or knitting a fabric in width-for-width or width-for-length arrangements on a weaving loom or a double needle bar knitting machine. | 06-04-2009 |
20160024840 | Single-Track Stacking Panel Covering for an Architectural Opening - A stacking panel covering for an architectural opening includes a headrail and a plurality of suspended from the headrail. The panels form an overlapped stack at one end of the headrail when the stacking panel covering is opened, and cover the architectural opening when the stacking panel covering is closed. The panels are piggybacked on those adjacent thereto, so that they stack, one behind the next, when the stacking panel covering is opened, and so that each pulls the next adjacent thereto as the stacking panel covering is being closed. The panels themselves may be planar, or convexly curved in a horizontal direction and substantially straight in a vertical direction. | 01-28-2016 |
