HUBERT DALTON, OF STAMFORD, CONNECTICUT.
CURTAIN HOLDER.
Application filed October 21, 1926. Serial No. 143,036.
This invention relates to curtain holders and has for its primary object to provide a simple and inexpensive device easily applicable to the window frame or casing whereby the curtains or other draperies may be held or supported in spaced relation to the window opening in case full ventilation is desired and to prevent the curtains from being blown about and possibly soiled or otherwise damaged.
It is a more particular object of themvention to provide a device for this purpose which is so constructed, that it may be readily adjusted to operative or inoperative position relative to thewindow' frame, andin the latter position thereof is inconspicuous and out of the way.
WVith the above and other objects in View, the invention consists in the improved curtain holder, and in the form, construction and relative arrangement of the several parts as will be hereinafter more fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings, and subsequently incorporated in the subjoined claims.
In the drawings, wherein I have disclosed several simple andpractical embodiments of the invention, and in which similar reference characters designate corresponding parts throughout the several views,
Figure 1 is a perspective view illustrating the manner of application of my improved curtain holder to the window frame;
Fig. 2 is a plan View of the device;
Fig. 3 is an enlarged side elevation;
Fig. 4 is an end elevation of the device in an operative position;
Fig. 5 is a detail section taken on the line 55 of Fig. 3, and
Fig. 6 is an elevation similar to Fig. 4 showing the device in its inoperative position.
In the embodiment of the invention which I have selected for purposes of illustration. a pair of bracket members 5 and 6 respectively, are suitably attached to each side of the window frame or casing, said bracket members being arranged in vertically spaced relation to each other and the upper bracket member 5 being located substantially in line with the meeting rails of the window sashes. The upper bracket member is provided with spaced ears 7 between which one end of the rod 8 is pivotally secured by the pin 9.
The other or lower bracket member 6 is also provided with spaced ears 10 having vertical notches or recesses 11 therein opening upon the upper edges of said ears.
The other end of the rod 8 is bifurcated as shown at 12 to receive theflattened ear or extension 13 on one end of a second rod 14. This ear is apertured and loosely en aged upon the reduced end of a pin 15 fixed in the bifurcated end of the rod 8, said pin pro jecting laterally from one side of said rod.
In the other end of the rod 14, a pin 16 is fixed and projects from each side thereof. The ends of this pin are adapted to be seated in the notches or recesses 11 of the ears 10 on the lower bracket as clearly seen in Fig. 3 of the drawings.
The device above described may be readily applied to either the right or left hand side of the window frame, the rod 8 being first V disposed in a substantially horizontal posi tion and pin 15 engaged in the notches 11 to thereby properly space the two bracket members from each other. Said bracket members are then securely fixed to the face of the Window frame as shown in Fig. 1 of the drawings. IVhen the curtain is draped over the horizontally disposed arm 8, it will be held or supported thereby in spaced relation to the window opening to thus allow full ventilation andiprevent blowing or flapping of the curtain by air drafts. The pin 15 effectively prevents the curtain being blown inwardly beyond the rod 8. Thus the annoyance of the flapping curtain and possi-' bility of soiling or damaging the same is obviated.
When the device is not in use, the pin 15 is disengaged from the recesses 11 and the two rods 8 and 14 are permitted to swing downwardly to a position in alignment with each other, the rod 8 fitting between the ears 10 of the lower bracket member 6 and being retained thereby closely adjacent to the window frame or casing. Thus, the device will be inconspicuous and unobtrusive.
In the foregoing description, I have dischanges in the form, proportion and relative arrangement of the several detail parts as may be fairly incorporated within the spirit and scope of the invention as claimed.
I claimi 1. A curtain holder comprising a pair of separate bracket members adapted to be attached to a window frame in vertically spaced relation to each other, a pair of rods pivotally connected at one of their ends in such a manner as to be capable of suspension in longitudinal alignment or in angular relation the other end of one rod being pivoted to the upper bracket member, and the other end of the second rod adaptedto be detachably supported upon the lower bracket memneceaoe member, said lower bracket member havingspaced ears provided with notches therein opena-t their upper ends, and a pin fixed 111 .the other end of the other of said rods and extending from the opposite sides thereof said pin being adapted for detachable engagement in said notches to support the first named rod in'a substantially horizontal position with respect to the upper bracket member, and said first namedrod when said pin is disengaged from said notches and the rods swung downwardly from the upper bracket member to a position in alignment with each other being received between the ears of the lower bracket member.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my invention, I have signed my name hereto.
HUBERT DALTON.
