Abstract

A curtain assembly includes a curtain fabric, an upper supporting shaft, a lower supporting shaft, first through fourth coupling member and a connecting cord. The connecting cord sequentially extends between the first coupling member and the second coupling member to form a handle loop. The connecting cord passing through the first coupling member is arranged to pass through the coupling member and extend around the curtain fabric and connect with an external support. The connecting cord passing through the second coupling member is arranged to pass through the fourth coupling member extend around the curtain fabric connect with an external support. The curtain assembly can be operated between a shading position and a retracted position, wherein in the shading position, the curtain fabric is fully extended. In the retracted position, the curtain fabric is retracted to form a roll.

Claims17

Dependent claims

A curtain assembly, comprising:

a curtain fabric having a front surface, a rear surface, a top edge portion, a bottom edge portion, and two side edge portions extending between said top edge portion and said bottom edge portion;
an upper supporting shaft coupled to said top edge portion, said upper supporting shaft having a first supporting end portion and a second supporting end portion, and being suspendedly affixed to an external support;
a lower supporting shaft coupled to said bottom edge portion of said curtain fabric;
first and second coupling member having a first guiding hole and a second guiding hole respectively, said first coupling member and said second coupling member spacedly being supported above said first supporting end portion of said upper supporting shaft;
a third coupling member having a third guiding hole, and being supported above said upper supporting shaft;
a fourth coupling member having a fourth guiding hole, and being supported above said upper supporting shaft at a position spaced apart from said third coupling member;
a connecting cord sequentially extending between said first coupling member and said second coupling member to form a handle loop, said connecting cord passing through said first guiding hole extending to pass through said third guiding hole and extend around said curtain fabric from said front surface to said rear surface,
said connecting cord passing through said second guiding hole being arranged to pass through said fourth guiding hole and extend around said curtain fabric from said front surface to said rear surface;
said curtain assembly being operated between a shading position and a retracted position, wherein in said shading position, said curtain fabric is fully extended between said upper supporting shaft and said lower supporting shaft, wherein in said retracted position, said handle loop is pulled and retained to pull said lower supporting shaft and roll said curtain fabric toward said upper supporting shaft so as to allow said curtain fabric to be retracted and form a roll.

A method of assembling a curtain assembly, comprising the steps of:

(a) detachably affixing an upper supporting shaft and a lower supporting shaft to a top edge portion and a bottom edge portion of a curtain fabric respectively;
(b) detachably affixing a first coupling member, a second coupling member, a third coupling member and a fourth coupling member on an external object said first coupling member having a first guiding hole, said second coupling member having a second guiding hole, said third coupling member having a third guiding hole, and said fourth coupling member having a fourth guiding hole;
(c) extending a connecting cord through said first coupling member and said second coupling member to form a handle loop;
(d) extending a first section of said connecting cord from said first coupling hole along said top edge portion of said curtain fabric to pass through said third coupling hole of said third coupling member, and further passing around said curtain fabric and finally affixing to an external object;
and
(e) extending a second section of said connecting cord from said second coupling hole along said top edge portion of said curtain fabric to pass through said fourth coupling hole of said fourth coupling member, and further passing around said curtain fabric and finally affixing to an external object.

3 more elements

A curtain assembly, comprising:

a curtain fabric having a front surface, a rear surface, a top edge portion, a bottom edge portion, and two side edge portions extending between said top edge portion and said bottom edge portion;
an upper supporting shaft coupled to said top edge portion, said upper supporting shaft having a first supporting end portion and a second supporting end portion, and being suspendedly affixed to an external support;
a lower supporting shaft coupled to said bottom edge portion of said curtain fabric;
a first coupling member having a first guiding hole, said first coupling member being supported above said first supporting end portion of said upper supporting shaft;
a third coupling member having a third guiding hole, and being supported above said upper supporting shaft;
a fourth coupling member having a fourth guiding hole, and being supported above said upper supporting shaft at a position spaced apart from said third coupling member;
a connecting cord repetitively through said first coupling member to form a handle loop, a first section of said connecting cord passing through said first guiding hole extending to pass through said third guiding hole and extend around said curtain fabric from said front surface to said rear surface,
a second section of said connecting cord passing through said second guiding hole being arranged to pass through said fourth guiding hole and extend around said curtain fabric from said front surface to said rear surface;
said curtain assembly being operated between a shading position and a retracted position, wherein in said shading position, said curtain fabric is fully extended between said upper supporting shaft and said lower supporting shaft, wherein in said retracted position, said handle loop is pulled and retained to pull said lower supporting shaft and roll said curtain fabric toward said upper supporting shaft so as to allow said curtain fabric to be retracted and form a roll.
