Abstract
A fastening system for a window shade includes a first and a second clipping base, and a first and a second clipping plate. In a first configuration, the first and second clipping bases are attached to each other with each of the first and second clipping plates respectively disposed between and in contact with the first and second clipping bases, whereby a first panel can be held between the first clipping base and the first and second clipping plates and a second panel can be held between the second clipping base and the first and second clipping plates. In a second configuration, the first and second clipping bases are attachable to each other without the first and second clipping plates, whereby a single panel of a window shade can be held between the first and clipping bases.
Claims19
A fastening system for a window shade, comprising:
- a first clipping base and a second clipping base, the first clipping base having a first and a second base region, and the second clipping base having a third and a fourth base region;
- and
- a first and a second clipping plate respectively positionable between the first clipping base and the second clipping base, the first clipping plate having a first and a second surface opposite to each other, and the second clipping plate having a third and a fourth surface opposite to each other;
- wherein the fastening system has a first configuration where the first and second clipping bases are attached to each other with the first clipping plate positioned between the first base region and the third base region and the second clipping plate positioned between the second base region and the fourth base region, and a second configuration where the first and second clipping bases are attached to each other without the first and second clipping plates between the first and second clipping bases, the fastening system in the first configuration being adapted to hold a first panel of a window shade between the first clipping base and the first and second clipping plates and to hold a second panel of a window shade between the second clipping base and the first and second clipping plates, and the fastening system in the second configuration being adapted to hold a single panel of a window shade between the first clipping base and the second clipping base;
- wherein the first clipping plate is positionable between the first clipping base and the second clipping base with the first surface oriented toward the first base region for contacting with the first panel and the second surface oriented toward the third base region for contacting with the second panel, and the second clipping plate is positionable between the first clipping base and the second clipping base with the third surface oriented toward the second base region for contacting with the first panel and the fourth surface oriented toward the fourth base region for contacting with the second panel.

A fastening system for a window shade, comprising:
- a first clipping base and a second clipping base;
- and
- a first and a second clipping plate respectively positionable between the first clipping base and the second clipping base;
- wherein the fastening system has a first configuration where the first and second clipping bases are attached to each other with each of the first and second clipping plates respectively disposed between and respectively in contact with the first and second clipping bases, and a second configuration where the first and second clipping bases are attached to each other without the first and second clipping plates between the first and second clipping bases, the fastening system in the first configuration being adapted to hold a first panel of a window shade between the first clipping base and the first and second clipping plates and to hold a second panel of a window shade between the second clipping base and the first and second clipping plates, and the fastening system in the second configuration being adapted to hold a single panel of a window shade between the first clipping base and the second clipping base;
- wherein the first clipping plate is attachable to the first clipping base independently of the second clipping plate and the second clipping base, and the second clipping plate is attachable to the second clipping base independently of the first clipping plate and the first clipping base, the first clipping base having a first latch, and the second clipping base having a second and a third latch, the second and third latches respectively protruding from the second clipping base with different lengths, the first latch being selectively engageable with the first clipping plate in the first configuration or the second clipping base in the second configuration, the second latch being selectively engageable with the second clipping plate in the first configuration or the first clipping base in the second configuration, and the third latch being engageable with the first clipping base in the first configuration.
