Abstract: A structural panel for use in building structures or in the formation, finish or decoration thereof includes an outer sheet and a connector sheet with a plurality of collapsible or compressible dividers therebetween. The panel in a rest condition is expanded and of a desired thickness for final use but can be compressed into a relatively thin thickness or profile for shipping purposes. The panel is very lightweight but structurally strong and can be selectively bent in one transverse direction if desired. The panel can be easily cut or formed into any predetermined size or shape.

Abstract: A retractable cellular shade is illustrated in various embodiments to consis t 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 suppo rt structure supporting a plurality of vanes or slats in various configurations and orientations. The movement of the vanes or slats is totally dependent up on 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 method for winding a sheet of aligned parallel yarns onto a beam is described. The aligned sheet of material is preshrunk using heated rollers (206,208,210) and wound onto a beam. Multiple speed controlled stepper motors are utilized to maintain a constant low level of tension in the sheet during the shrinking process. After shrinkage, the tension level of the yarn sheet is increased as it is wrapped onto the beam. A turntable that supports two or more beams is provided to facilitate the rapid switching of beams once one beam has become full.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for winding a sheet of aligned parallel yarns onto a beam is described. The beam winder utilizes a circularly arced yarn spool rack that feeds each yarn to an alignment comb through associated guide tubes. The distance between each spool of yarn and the alignment comb is substantially the same for all spools of yarn, thereby equalizing the force necessary to pull them to the comb. Next, the aligned sheet of material is preshrunk using heated rollers and wound onto a beam. Multiple speed controlled stepper motors are utilized to maintain a constant low level of tension in the sheet during the shrinking process. After shrinkage, the tension level of the yarn sheet is increased as it is wrapped onto the beam. A turntable that supports two or more beams is provided to facilitate the rapid switching of beams once one beam has become full.

Abstract: An apparatus for fabricating tubular vanes and adhering the vanes to a plurality of associated ladder tapes for use in a blind assembly for an architectural opening is described. The apparatus includes a first section for unrolling resin impregnated fabric tape, folding the tape, and cutting the tape to a predetermined length. In a second section of the apparatus, the cut and folded tape is bonded to together along its longitudinal edges to form a tubular vane. In the third and final section, the completed vane is positioned between the vertical cords of a plurality of associated ladder tapes and the vane is adhesively bonded to a cross rung of each. After the vane has been bonded to the cross rungs, the ladder tapes are advanced and prepared for receipt of the next vane. The resulting subassembly of vanes is used to fabricate blind assemblies through the addition of headrails and bottom rails.

Abstract: A covering (20) for an architectural opening includes a head rail (22), a bottom rail (24) with a take-up roller (46) therein and an intermediate rail (26) with both the intermediate rail (26) and bottom rail (24) suspended from the head rail (20), a fabric material (28) interconnecting the intermediate rail (26) with the bottom rail (24) and being adapted to be wrapped around the roller (46) in the bottom rail (24), said fabric (28) including a pair of vertically oriented sheets (40,42) that are horizontally spaced by a plurality of vertically spaced horizontal vanes (44) with the vanes (44) being movable between open and closed positions by opposite vertical movement of the sheets (40,42) of material. A first control system (34) is provided for raising and lowering the bottom rail (24) and a second control system for (36) raising and lowering the intermediate rail (26) as well as tilting the intermediate rail (26) to effect an opening or closing of the vanes (44).
