Benefits of technology

[0002]Briefly, the invention is embodied in a curtain rod assembly for supporting a curtain rod, the assembly being attachable between parallel spaced apart vertically oriented generally planar inner frame members for a frame surrounding a window. Such windows and their surrounding frames are manufactured in numerous sizes such that windows are available with many different inner dimensions between the parallel generally planar vertical frame members. To accommodate windows of different widths, the invention includes a longitudinally adjustable retainer member having a first end positionable against a first planar vertical frame member and a second end positionable against the opposing parallel second planar frame member of either a first window in which the vertical planar frame members are spaced apart a first given distance, and a second window in which the vertical parallel frame members are spaced apart a second given distance. The device further includes some means for retaining the first end of the retaining member against the first vertical frame member and the second end against t...

Embodiment Construction

[0010]Referring to FIGS. 1, 1A, and 2, the present invention is a curtain rod assembly 10 for use to retain a curtain, not shown, across the surfaces of a window 12 and a window frame 14. As seen from within a building, the window frame 14 includes a windowsill 16, a pair of vertical generally co-planar decorative side members 18, 20, a top member 22 and planar, parallel spaced apart vertical inner window frame members 24, 26.

[0011]Positioned between the upper ends of the inner window frame members 24, 26 is an elongate retaining member 28 having a first end 30 and a second end 32. In its preferred embodiment, the retaining member 28 is longitudinally adjustable such that the distance between the first end 30 and second end 32 may be adjusted to fit within the given distance D1 between the frame members 24, 26 of window frame 14, or between frame members of a second window 27 having different dimensions and a different given distance D2 between the inner window frame members.

Abstract

A curtain rod assembly includes a longitudinally adjustable retaining member the length of which can be changed to fit the width between parallel spaced apart side members of windows of different sizes. The retaining member has tubular parts that are telescopically assembled to one another and a bracket at each end thereof. The brackets have a first portion that extends radially outward of the retaining member and a second portion that extends axially to support a curtain rod above the window with the outer ends spaced apart wider than the window frame.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]The task of installing curtain rods frequently falls to those with very little experience using tools such as screw drivers, hammers, and the like. It is not uncommon for the inexperienced person to call in the assistance of a professional technician to install the necessary hardware required to support a curtain. Where the window is not large in size, the inexperienced installer may find the minimum fees charged by experienced technicians to be prohibitive, and therefore there is a need for window curtain hardware suitable for retaining a curtain and rod that can be easily installed to decorate a relatively small window surrounded by a typical window frame. The device could also be used to form a canopy for a bed, a shower tub enclosure, a room divider, or over a passageway.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION[0002]Briefly, the invention is embodied in a curtain rod assembly for supporting a curtain rod, the assembly being attachable between parallel spaced apa...
