Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] This invention relates to curtains for verandas. [Background technology]

[0002] A proposed balcony curtain has mounting bodies near both ends of the upper part of the curtain that are fastened to rod holders to prevent the curtain from sliding sideways, and the upper end of an auxiliary curtain with a ventilated upper part and a non-ventilated lower part is connected to the lower outside part of the curtain, with a space formed between the auxiliary curtain and the curtain, and openings on both the left and right edge sides and the bottom edge of the auxiliary curtain relative to curtain 1, and a weight attached to the bottom of the auxiliary curtain (Patent Document 1).

[0003] However, this curtain is designed to be used by passing the ring of the balcony curtain of the present invention through a pole hanging from a pole holder on the balcony and storing a weight in the pocket, but there is a problem in that it cannot be installed without a pole. Also, since there is no curtain on the pole, there is a problem in that the pole area cannot be protected from the sun or wind. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0004] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2001-327395 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] Therefore, the present invention was made in consideration of the above-mentioned problems, and aims to provide a balcony curtain that can be installed not only using a pole but also using a string, etc., and when a pole is used, the pole is not visible, resulting in an aesthetically pleasing appearance. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention has adopted the following means. The balcony curtain of this invention comprises a curtain body having a rod-through portion at the upper end for inserting a rod, and a plurality of holes at the top and bottom, The upper hole allows the curtain body to be hung using a string, The lower hole allows a string to be passed through to secure the lower end of the curtain body, The rod-passing portion is formed by a belt-shaped member attached to the upper end of the curtain body, and the upper and lower edges of the belt-shaped member are sewn together to form a space for inserting the rod.

[0007] In addition, the balcony curtain according to the present invention may be characterized by having a tassel attached to the curtain body for bundling the curtain body. [Effects of the Invention]

[0008] The balcony curtains of the present invention have the following advantages:

[0009] (1) The balcony curtain of this invention is equipped with a rod-passing section, which allows it to be stably installed by passing it through a rod, thereby preventing it from flapping even in strong winds and allowing for stable use.

[0010] (2) The pole is positioned on the back of the curtain body, so once installed, it cannot be seen from the outside, improving the aesthetic appearance.

[0011] (3) There are multiple string holes at the top, so even if there is no pole installed, it can be hung from a balcony fence or the like using a string, allowing for flexible adaptation to the installation environment.

[0012] (4) There are also several holes at the bottom of the curtain body, and by securing the bottom with string or something similar, it is possible to prevent the curtain from being blown up by the wind.

[0013] (5) The tassel allows the bag to be easily bundled and held when not in use, making it easy to store and organize. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0015] An embodiment of a balcony curtain 100 according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. Note that the embodiments and drawings described below are intended to exemplify some of the embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Appropriate modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Note that corresponding components in each drawing are designated by the same or similar reference numerals.

[0016] (Embodiment) A balcony curtain 100 according to an embodiment is shown in Fig. 1 to Fig. 4. Fig. 1 is a front view of the balcony curtain 100, Fig. 2 is a back view of the balcony curtain 100, and Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the balcony curtain 100. Fig. 4 is a perspective view showing how to use the balcony curtain 100.

[0017] As shown in Figure 1, the balcony curtain 100 of this embodiment mainly comprises a curtain body 10, a string hole 12 formed above the curtain body, a rod-passing section 14 for passing a rod through, a lower hole 16 provided below, and a tassel 18.

[0018] Furthermore, if necessary, fasteners 20 such as hook-and-loop fasteners can be provided on the left and right ends of the curtain body 10, allowing it to be fixed to adjacent walls or structures.

[0019] The curtain body 10 has four sides folded and sewn together, reinforcing the periphery. The size and type of fabric of the curtain body 10 are not particularly limited and can be selected as appropriate. The surface of the body 10 may also be treated to block ultraviolet rays or to be waterproof, thereby improving weather resistance in outdoor environments.

[0020] The string holes 12 are holes formed so that the balcony curtain 100 can be installed with strings, and are provided in approximately three to six locations on the top, but this is not limited to this number. Grommets may be attached to the holes for reinforcement. It is also desirable to arrange the string holes 12 at equal intervals, which helps prevent the curtain from sagging when hung.

[0021] As shown in the figure, the pole-passing section 14 is formed by sewing the top and bottom of a strip of fabric to the top of the balcony curtain 100 so that a pole can be inserted between them. It is preferable to provide six to twelve pole-passing sections 14 at regular intervals, but this number is not particularly limited. It is preferable to attach them to the section that is folded back and reinforced upward.

[0022] The lower holes 16 are holes for fastening the lower part of the curtain body 10 using strings or the like, and there is no particular limit to the number of holes. As with the string holes 12, they may be reinforced with grommets. Note that the lower holes 16 may be configured to have weights attached to them to prevent flapping in strong winds.

[0023] The tassel 18 is a member for holding the balcony curtain 100 together when not in use, and is made of a string or strip of cloth sewn near the center of the top and bottom of the curtain body 10. The tassel 18 may be detachable, and is preferably secured with a hook-and-loop fastener, button, or the like.

[0024] The balcony curtain 100 manufactured as described above is used as follows. If the balcony has a rod holder, as shown in the figure, the rod 20 is passed through the rod-passing section 14, and the balcony curtain 100 is installed by hanging it on the rod. Then, if necessary, the lower side is secured with a string using the lower hole 16. If necessary, the balcony curtain 100 can be secured using the upper hole to prevent it from sliding down the rod due to wind, etc. In this way, the balcony curtain 100 is installed.

[0025] The balcony curtain 100 installed in this way is stable because it is attached to a pole. Also, because the pole is located behind the balcony curtain 100, it is hidden by the curtain, resulting in an aesthetically pleasing appearance. Furthermore, it has a privacy effect that blocks views from outside and a shading effect that blocks direct sunlight, creating a comfortable environment on the balcony.

[0026] On the other hand, even if there is no pole, the balcony curtain 100 of the present invention can be installed by hanging it using a string, since it has a string hole 12 at the top. In this way, the high degree of freedom in installation method and the fact that it can be adapted to various balcony environments are also features of this invention.

[0027] It goes without saying that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and can be embodied in various forms as long as they fall within the technical scope of the present invention. [Industrial Applicability]

[0028] As shown in the above-described embodiment, the present invention can be industrially utilized as a balcony curtain. [Explanation of symbols]
