[0002] Currently, most sliding blinds on the market have the slats pre-installed by the seller, and the installation is done by a technician after the customer purchases the blinds. However, after prolonged use, the slats often become tilted, affecting the appearance of the blinds. Therefore, customers need to adjust or replace the slats themselves later. However, most slat end caps on the market are fixed with screws, making it inconvenient for customers to install and remove the blinds themselves. Therefore, there is a need for a curtain end cap that allows for easy replacement of the blinds. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a curtain slat end cap to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background art.

[0004] The technical solution to achieve the purpose of this utility model is: a curtain slat end cap, wherein the curtain end cap is disposed at the end of the curtain slat profile, including a first end cap part and a second end cap part, and the curtain slat profile is provided with an insertion groove. The first end cap part is fixed to the curtain slat profile, and the second end cap part has at least a locked state and an unlocked state. When the second end cap part is in the locked state, the second end cap part is fixedly connected to the first end cap part and fixed at the end of the insertion groove. When the second end cap part is in the unlocked state, the second end cap part is movably connected relative to the first end cap part, and the second end cap part is disengaged from the end of the insertion groove.

[0005] Furthermore, the first end cap is provided with a sliding groove, which is located on both sides of the first end cap or extends through both sides of the first end cap. The second end cap is provided with a slider that cooperates with the sliding groove. When the second end cap is pushed along the length of the sliding groove, the second end cap changes between a locked state and an unlocked state.

[0006] Furthermore, a sliding post is provided on the second end cap, and the sliding post is movably disposed in the sliding groove.

[0007] Furthermore, a stop is provided on the first end cap, which restricts the slide from disengaging from the slide groove.

[0008] Furthermore, the slider is provided with a protrusion, which cooperates with the stop block. When the protrusion is in the slide groove, the second end cover is in a locked state, and when the protrusion is disengaged from the slide groove, the second end cover is in an unlocked state.

[0009] Furthermore, the stop block is provided with a first inclined surface that cooperates with the protrusion.

[0010] Furthermore, the end of the slider is provided with a second inclined surface that mates with the first end cap.

[0030] (Example 1)

[0031] See Figure 1-4 In this embodiment, the end caps of the sliding curtain slats are disposed at the ends of the curtain slat profiles, including a first end cap 1 and a second end cap 2. The curtain slat profiles are provided with insertion slots. The first end cap 1 is fixed to the curtain slat profiles. The second end cap 2 has at least a locked state and an unlocked state. When the second end cap 2 is in the locked state, it is fixedly connected to the first end cap 1 and fixed to the end of the insertion slot. When the second end cap 2 is in the unlocked state, it is movably connected relative to the first end cap 1, and disengages from the end of the insertion slot. The first end cap 1 is provided with an insertion portion, and the curtain slat profiles are provided with slots corresponding to the insertion portions. The first end cap 1 is inserted into the slots and fixed with screws. Of course, in this embodiment, after the first end cap 1 is fixed to the end of the curtain slat profiles, it should be offset from the insertion slot.

[0032] Specifically, the first end cap 1 is provided with a sliding groove 1-1, which can be provided on both sides of the first end cap 1, or the sliding grooves 1-1 on both sides can be opened up and the sliding groove 1-1 passes through both sides of the first end cap 1. As long as there are sliding grooves 1-1 on both sides of the first end cap 1, it is acceptable. The second end cap 2 is provided with a slider 2-1 that cooperates with the sliding groove 1-1. When the second end cap 2 is pushed along the length direction of the sliding groove 1-1, the second end cap 2 changes between a locked state and an unlocked state.

[0033] The second end cap 2 is provided with a sliding post 2-2, which is movably disposed in the slide groove 1-1. When the second end cap 2 is in the locked state, the sliding block 2-1 is located in the slide groove 1-1. The cooperation between the sliding block 2-1 and the slide groove 1-1 restricts the rotation of the second end cap 2, preventing the end cap from opening due to fabric impact. The sliding post 2-2 can move in the slide groove 1-1. When the sliding block 2-1 disengages from the slide groove 1-1, the second end cap 2 can rotate around the sliding post 2-2 to unlock.

[0034] A stop 1-2 is provided on the first end cap 1. The stop 1-2 restricts the slide post 2-2 from disengaging from the slide groove 1-1, preventing the second end cap 2 from completely disengaging from the first end cap 1.

[0035] The slider 2-1 is provided with a protrusion 2-1-1, which cooperates with the stop block 1-2. When the protrusion 2-1-1 is located in the slide groove 1-1, the second end cover 2 is in a locked state. When the protrusion 2-1-1 is disengaged from the slide groove 1-1, the second end cover 2 is in an unlocked state.

[0036] The stop block 1-2 is provided with a first inclined surface 1-2-1 that cooperates with the protrusion 2-1-1, so that the protrusion 2-1-1 can pass through the stop block 1-2 and enter the slide groove 1-1 for locking operation.

[0037] The end of the slider 2-1 is provided with a second inclined surface 2-1-2 that cooperates with the first end cover 1. When the second end cover 2 is in the unlocked state, the second end cover 2 hangs on the first end cover 1, reducing damage to the slider 2-1 and the first end cover 1.

[0038] The two sides of the second end cap 2 are provided with anti-slip textures 2-3 to facilitate pushing the second end cap 2.

[0039] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: the second end cap 2 is arranged parallel to the first end cap 1. When the second end cap 2 is pushed along the length direction of the slide groove 1-1 (i.e. the length direction of the first end cap 1), the slider 2-1 slides into the slide groove 1-1. At this time, due to the cooperation between the slider 2-1 and the slide groove 1-1, the second end cap 2 cannot rotate relative to the first end cap 1. When the protrusion 2-1-1 on the slider 2-1 passes the stop 1-2 and enters the slide groove 1-1, the second end cap 2 is in a locked state. The protrusion 2-1-1 is blocked by the stop 1-2 and cannot leave the slide groove 1-1. At this time, the second end cap 2 and the first end cap 1 are relatively fixed, and the second end cap 2 blocks the end of the curtain profile. When unlocking is required, an external force is applied to the second end cap 2, and the second end cap 2 is pushed in the opposite direction along the length of the first end cap 1, causing the protrusion 2-1-1 to disengage from the slide groove 1-1. At this time, the slider 2-1 is still in the slide groove 1-1. The second end cap 2 can move along the length of the first end cap 1 but cannot rotate. Continue pushing the second end cap 2 until the slider 2-1 is completely disengaged from the slide groove 1-1. The slide post 2-2 is blocked by the stop block 1-2 and cannot disengage from the slide groove 1-1. At this time, the second end cap 2 can rotate around the slide post 2-2 relative to the first end cap 1. Rotate the second end cap 2 and then push the second end cap 2 in the opposite direction. After releasing the second end cap 2, the second end cap 2 hangs on the first end cap 1 due to gravity. The second inclined surface 2-1-2 on the slider 2-1 abuts against the first end cap 1. At this time, the end of the curtain profile opens, and the curtain can be inserted into the insertion groove from the end of the curtain profile.

[0040] The specific embodiments described above further illustrate the purpose, technical solution, and beneficial effects of this utility model. It should be understood that the above descriptions are merely specific embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
