A window shade that reduces the risk of an individual becoming entangled in cords used to operate the shade includes a headrail adapted for horizontal mounting above a window, a shading material attached to the headrail, and at least one cord for raising and lowering the shading material. The cord is attached to a location adjacent a lower end of the material, and extends upward through cord guides toward the headrail.

Filed:
Jul 19, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/186067
Inventors:
David Perkowitz - Vernon Hills IL, US
Assignee:
Horizons Window Fashions, Inc. - Gurnee IL
International Classification:
A47H 5/00
US Classification:
160 8401, 160 8404, 160243
Abstract:
A window shade that reduces the risk of an individual becoming entangled in cords used to operate the shade includes a headrail adapted for horizontal mounting above a window, a shading material attached to the headrail, and at least one cord for raising and lowering the shading material. The cord is attached to a location adjacent a lower end of the material, and extends upward through cord guides toward the headrail. The cord is encased within a collapsible shroud attached to each cord guide. The shroud is adapted to longitudinally extend as the shading material is lowered toward a deployed position, and then longitudinally collapse as the shading material is raised toward a stowed position. The cord is secured to and is wound about a spool fixed to a spring-loaded roller. The roller provides tension on the cord that counterbalances the weight of the shade so that the shading material may be positioned at any desired level.

Filed:
May 1, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/461533
Inventors:
David Perkowitz - Vernon Hills IL, US
International Classification:
A47H 5/02
A47H 23/04
US Classification:
160 8404, 160340
Abstract:
A window shade includes a headrail adapted for horizontal mounting above a window, a shading material attached to the headrail, and at least one cord for raising and lowering the shading material. The cord is attached to a location adjacent a lower end of the material, and extends upward through cord guides toward the headrail. The cord may be encased within a collapsible member attached to each cord guide. The collapsible member is adapted to longitudinally extend as the shading material is lowered toward a deployed position, and then longitudinally collapse as the shading material is raised toward a stowed position. The cord is secured to and is wound about a spring-loaded roller. The roller provides tension on the cord that counterbalances the weight of the shade so that the shading material may be positioned at any desired level. A stop bracket is disposed adjacent a face of the shading material and has a first portion attached to the headrail and a second portion containing a bore, wherein the cord extends from the roller through the bore and is secured to the shading material.
