Abstract in simplified Chinese:本发明提供一种具有可折叠叶片之用于建筑开口之可伸缩遮盖物,其包括一导轨及以一材料片、单丝、线带、条带、绳索或其类似物形式之支持结构,该支持结构支持复数个垂直间隔、水平延伸之叶片的上边缘,其中该等叶片之下边缘连接至操作组件,该等操作组件经调适将每一叶片之下边缘朝向该等上边缘升高,以界定叶片之间的开口或间隙,在遮盖物之打开状态下视线及光线可穿过该等开口或间隙。该支持结构、叶片及操作组件经调适以在遮盖物之缩回位置中卷绕于导轨中之一滚轴周围且在展开位置中展开。一抑制系统被并入该遮盖物,俾当支持结构、叶片及操作组件到达一展开位置时可允许叶片自动打开。
Abstract in simplified Chinese:[课题]即使将第1帘布卷起到头轨附近,也不会损害第2帘布的美观,且不会增多第2帘布的施工时数。[解决手段]将第1及第2帘布11、12的上端分别安装在头轨16,将可升降地从头轨垂下的第1及第2升降绳索21、22分别链接在第1及第2帘布。第1升降绳索21配线在第1帘布11的后侧,第2升降绳索22是越过第2帘布12的上端配线在第2帘布12的后侧。又沿着头轨的后部下缘向下方突设有延长构件17,第2帘布的上端安装在延长构件的前面。又于第2帘布的前面视角观看,在含有第2升降绳索的垂下部分的预定宽度设有没有将第2帘布的上端安装在延长构件前面的非安装部18,从头轨垂下的第2升降绳索是穿过非安装部从第2帘布的前侧往后侧配线。
Abstract:
Room dividers are provided having an edge at least four feet from a room floor and at least twenty inches from a ceiling, an open or perforated space above and adjacent the edge along at least a majority portion of the room divider, and a moveable shield configured such that fluid from one side of the room divider is substantially blocked from passing through the open/perforated space when the shield is aligned with the space. Curtains are provided which include fastener/s arranged along a screen and strut/s coupled to the fastener/s, wherein the screen extends at least 3 inches above the fastener/s and the strut/s extend at least 24 inches below the fastener/s. Other curtains include struts extending along less than an entire length of the screen but at least between a point approximately level with at least one of the fastener/s to at least 24 inches below the fastener/s.
Abstract:
A retractable cellular shade is illustrated in various embodiments to consist of a support structure that could assume numerous forms including cellular material, flexible sheets of material, tapes or ribbons, or flexible monofilaments or similar cords of natural or synthetic fibers with the support structure supporting a plurality of vanes or slats in various configurations and orientations. The movement of the vanes or slats is totally dependent upon movement of the support structure. The fabric so formed can be incorporated into a covering for architectural openings with the covering including a headrail with means for gathering the fabric material within the headrail.
Abstract:
A single-track stacking panel covering for an architectural opening has a headrail for mounting the covering above and in front of the opening, such as a window or door. The headrail has a single track. Suspended from the headrail and translatable therealong are panels oriented at a small angle relative to the headrail. When the covering is open, the panels form an overlappingly stacked array at one end of the headrail.
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:
Curtains are provided which have fastener/s and, in some cases, strut/s arranged along a screen. The strut/s extend to elevation/s below and/or above the fastener/s. An upper strut may have a lower degree of stiffness than a lower strut. In some cases, the fastener/s are arranged at least 20 inches from the screen's upper edge. Systems are described which include a disinfection apparatus and any of such curtains. Other systems include any of such curtains attached to an edge of a room divider. Easily assembled and disassembled room dividers are described which include cord/s and/or pole/s, installed or portable device/s for supporting the cords/poles, and fasteners for attaching a curtain to the cords/poles. A disinfection apparatus is described which includes a shield extending to an elevation at least two feet above a germicidal light source and borders at least one third of a continuous region surrounding the germicidal light source.
Abstract:
A drapery system for forming a window drapery of user-selected length. The system includes first and second drapery sections and at least one fastener for selectively and overlappingly attaching the drapery sections without stitching or sewing. A method of forming a drapery of user-selectable length is also provided.
