Abstract
A multicellular window covering is formed from a starting product in the form of a double-cell type of multicellular honeycomb structure. The individual cells of the starting product are defined by external pleated sides on the opposite faces of the structure and internal ligaments interconnecting the opposite faces at spaced intervals. Selected internal ligaments are severed, while leaving others of the internal ligaments intact, thereby eliminating a plurality of the original cells in various alternative patterns.
Claims7
A multicellular window covering comprising a honeycomb structure having at least one column of cells, the structure having external pleated sides on its opposite faces and a plurality of internal ligaments between such opposite faces at spaced intervals, a first set of said internal ligaments serving as partitions between adjacent cells, said window covering further comprising a second set of said internal ligaments that have been severed which are spaced from each other in a repeating sequence with ligaments of said first set along a height of the columns.
