Description

TRAINING KIT FOR MOTORIZED WINDOW TREATMENT INSTALLATIONCROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0001] This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63 / 678,503, filed August 1, 2024, which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.BACKGROUND

[0002] A window treatment may be mounted in front of one or more windows, for example to prevent sunlight from entering a space and / or to provide privacy. Window treatments may include, for example, roller shades, roman shades, Venetian blinds, or draperies. A roller shade typically includes a flexible shade fabric wound onto an elongated roller tube. Such a roller shade may include a weighted hembar located at a lower end of the shade fabric. The hembar may cause the shade fabric to hang in front of one or more windows over which the roller shade is mounted.

[0003] A typical window treatment can be mounted to structure surrounding a window, such as a window frame. Such a window treatment may include brackets at opposed ends thereof. The brackets may be configured to operably support the roller tube, such that the flexible material may be raised and lowered. For example, the brackets may be configured to support respective ends of the roller tube. The brackets may be attached to structure, such as a wall, ceiling, window frame, or other structure.

[0004] Such a window treatment may be motorized. A motorized window treatment may include a roller tube, a motor, brackets, and electrical wiring. The components of the motorized window treatment, such as the brackets, the roller tube, electrical wiring, etc. may have many different sizes and / or configurations and may be challenging to install.SUMMARY

[0005] Embodiments are described herein for a training kit for installation of one or more window treatments. The training kit may include various components. The components may be configured to different mounting configurations. The mounting configurations may include a singleshade inside-mount installation configuration, a single shade outside-mount installation configuration, dual-shade outside-mount installation configuration, and / or dual-shade outside-mount angled installation configuration. The components of the training kit may be configured to fit in a container that meets one or more threshold requirements for shipping or travel.

[0006] In one embodiment, the components may be configured in the single-shade insidemount installation configuration. The single-shade inside-mount installation configuration may include a base support structure and / or a mounting structure. The mounting structure may be configured to be fastened to the base support structure. The mounting structure may define a mounting area to which brackets of the window treatment may be configured to mount. Moreover, the mounting structure may include at least one mounting target plate that may define a mounting area to which at least one bracket of the window treatment may be configured to mount. In an example, the at least one mounting target plate may be located on a first planar portion of the mounting structure.

[0007] The mounting structure may further include a first mounting structure portion and a second mounting structure portion. The first mounting structure portion may be configured to be fastened to the second mounting structure portion to define the mounting area on the first planar portion of the first mounting structure portion and the second mounting structure portion. A first planar portion of the first mounting structure portion and the second mounting structure portion may each include a recess that defines an internal jamb mount installation area to which the brackets of the window treatment may be configured to mount. In an example, the at least one mounting target plate may be located on the first mounting structure portion.

[0008] In another example, the recess of the first mounting structure portion and the second mounting structure portion may define a width and a depth of the mounting area in which the brackets of the window treatment may be configured to be mounted. The at least one mountingtarget plate may include a first mounting target plate and a second mounting target plate that may be located on opposite sides of the recess defined by the first mounting structure portion.

[0009] The first mounting target plate and / or the second mounting target plate may be detachable from the mounting structure. The window treatment installation training kit may further include the brackets of the window treatment. The brackets may comprise a first bracket and a second bracket. The first bracket and the second bracket may each be configured to mount to the first mounting target plate or the second mounting target plate.

[0010] The components of the training kit may be configured to the single shade outsidemount installation configuration. In an example, the mounting structure may include a ceiling mounting portion extending on a first plane and / or a wall mounting portion extending on a second plane perpendicular to the first plane. The ceiling mounting portion may define a second mounting area outside of the recess to which the brackets of the window treatment are configured to mount. The wall mounting portion may define a third mounting area outside of the recess to which the brackets of the window treatment are configured to mount.

[0011] The components of the training kit may be configured to the dual-shade outsidemount installation configuration. In the dual-shade outside-mount installation configuration, the first mounting structure portion and the second mounting structure portion may be configured to be adjoined at respective side walls defining the mounting area as an outside-mount configuration area to which brackets of the window treatment are configured to mount. The mounting structure may be supported by a third mounting structure portion. The third mounting structure portion may be configured to be fastened to a second planar portion of the first mounting structure portion and the second mounting structure portion.

[0012] The components of the training kit may be configured to a dual-shade external wall mount corner installation configuration. The dual-shade external wall mount comer installation configuration may include one or more components of the base support structure or the mounting structure. The base support structure may include support members. The first mounting structure portion and the second mounting structure portion may be positioned in perpendicular planes in the dual-shade external wall mount corner installation configuration. The fastening of a third mountingstructure portion to two mounting structure portions may allow for different wall mount installations due to the added surface area provided by the third mounting structure portion.

[0013] In an example, the base support layer may include a container configured to store the components of the installation kit. The container may include respective tracks configured to receive each support member of the plurality of support members on an outside surface of the container. Each track may include a slat in the track configured to fit a notch in the respective support member configured to be mounted in the track to prevent movement of the support member in the track.

[0014] The components of the training kit may be configured for a dual-shade outside-mount angled installation configuration. The mounting structure may include a first sill plate, a second sill plate, and an angled attachment member. The angled attachment member may be configured to attach to a first end of the first sill plate extending on a first plane and to a second end of the second sill plate extending on a second plane to form an angular offset between the first plane and the second plane. The angular offset may not be parallel or perpendicular. The first sill plate, the second sill plate, and the angled attachment member may be configured to define a mounting area to which brackets of the window treatment configured to mount.

[0015] In an example, the first sill plate may include at least one first mounting target plate to which at least one first bracket of the brackets is configured to mount. The second sill plate may include at least one second mounting target plate to which at least one second bracket of the brackets is configured to mount. The angled attachment member may include at least one third mounting target plate to which at least one third bracket of the brackets is configured to mount.BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0023] FIG. 1A depicts an example window treatment 100 (e.g., a motorized window treatment system) that includes a roller tube 110 and a flexible material 120 (e.g, a covering material) windingly attached to the roller tube 110. The window treatment 100 may include one or more mounting brackets 130 (e.g, 130a, 130b) configured to be coupled to or otherwise mounted to a structure. For example, each of the mounting brackets 130 may be configured to be mounted to (e.g., attached to) a window frame, a wall, a ceiling, or other structure, such that the window treatment 100 is mounted proximate to an opening (e.g, over the opening or in the opening), such as a window for example. The mounting brackets 130 may be configured to be mounted to a vertical structure (e.g., wall-mounted to a wall as shown in FIG. 1A) and / or mounted to a horizontal structure (e.g, ceiling-mounted to a ceiling).

[0024] The roller tube 110 may operate as a rotational element of the window treatment 100. The roller tube 1 10 may be elongated along a longitudinal direction L and rotatably mounted (e.g, rotatably supported) by the mounting brackets 130 (e.g., 130a, 130b). The roller tube 110 may define a longitudinal axis 112. The longitudinal axis 112 may extend along the longitudinal direction L. The mounting brackets 130 may extend from the structure in a radial direction R. The radial direction R may be defined as a direction perpendicular to the structure and the longitudinalaxis 112. The flexible material 120 may be windingly attached to the roller tube 110, such that rotation of the roller tube 110 causes the flexible material 120 to wind around or unwind from the roller tube 110 along a transverse direction T that extends perpendicular to the longitudinal direction L. For example, rotation of the roller tube 110 may cause the flexible material 120 to move between a raised (e.g., open) position and a lowered (e.g., closed) position (e.g., as shown in FIG. 1A) along the transverse direction T.

[0025] The roller tube 110 may be a low-deflection roller tube and may be made of a material that has high strength and low density, such as carbon fiber. The roller tube 110 may have, for example, a diameter of approximately two inches. For example, the roller tube 110 may exhibit a deflection of less than 1 / 4 of an inch when the flexible material 120 has a length of 12 feet and a width of 12 feet (e.g., and the roller tube 110 has a corresponding width of 12 feet and the diameter is two inches). Examples of low-deflection roller tubes are described in greater detail in U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2016 / 0326801, published November 10, 2016, entitled LOW- DEFLECTION ROLLER SHADE TUBE FOR LARGE OPENINGS, the entire disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference.

[0026] The flexible material 120 may include a first end e.g., a top or upper end) that is coupled to the roller tube 110 and a second end (e.g., a bottom or lower end) that is coupled to a hembar 140. The hembar 140 may be configured, for example weighted, to cause the flexible material 120 to hang vertically. Rotation of the roller tube 110 may cause the hembar 140 to move toward or away from the roller tube 110 between the raised and lowered positions. An end cap 150 may be installed on each end of the hembar 140. The end cap 150 may be configured to cover the opposed ends of the hembar 140. For example, the end cap may provide a finished end to the hembar 140.

[0027] The flexible material 120 may be any suitable material, or form any combination of materials. For example, the flexible material 120 may be “scrim,” woven cloth, non-woven material, light-control film, screen, and / or mesh. The window treatment 100 may be any type of window treatment. For example, the window treatment 100 may be a roller shade as illustrated, a soft sheer shade, a drapery, a cellular shade, a Roman shade, or a Venetian blind. As shown, the flexible material 120 may be a material suitable for use as a shade fabric, and may be alternatively referred toas a flexible material. The flexible material 120 is not limited to shade fabric. For example, in accordance with an alternative implementation of the window treatment 100 as a retractable projection screen, the flexible material 120 may be a material suitable for displaying images projected onto the flexible material.

[0028] The window treatment 100 may include a drive assembly 160 (e.g., a motor drive unit). The drive assembly 160 may at least partially be disposed within the roller tube 110. For example, the drive assembly 160 may include a control circuit that may include a microprocessor and may be mounted to a printed circuit board. The drive assembly 160 may be powered by a power source (e.g., an alternating-current or direct-current power source). The power source may be external to the window treatment 100 and provide power by electrical wiring connected to the drive assembly 160. Alternatively, the power source may be internal to the window treatment 100 (e.g., the power source may include one or more batteries located in roller tube 110. The drive assembly 160 may be operably coupled to the roller tube 110 such that when the drive assembly is actuated, the roller tube 110 rotates. The drive assembly 160 may be configured to rotate the roller tube 110 of the example window treatment 100 such that the flexible material 120 is operable between the raised position and the lowered position. The drive assembly 160 may be configured to rotate the roller tube 110 while reducing noise generated by the drive assembly (e.g, noise generated by one or more gear stages of the drive assembly). Examples of drive assemblies for motorized window treatments are described in greater detail in commonly-assigned U.S. Patent No. 6,497,267, issued December 24, 2002, entitled MOTORIZED WINDOW SHADE WITH ULTRAQUIET MOTOR DRIVE AND ESD PROTECTION, and U.S. Patent No. 9,598,901, issued March 21, 2017, entitled QUIET MOTORIZED WINDOW TREATMENT SYSTEM, the entire disclosures of which are hereby incorporated by reference.

[0029] FIG. IB is an enlarged view of an end portion of the example window treatment 100 shown in FIG. 1A. The mounting brackets 130 may be configured to secure, without requiring a tool, the roller tube 110 in a first direction parallel to the longitudinal axis 112 (e.g, the longitudinal direction L), in a second direction that is parallel to the structure and perpendicular to the longitudinal axis (e.g., the transverse direction T), and in a third direction perpendicular to the structure and the longitudinal axis (e.g, the radial direction R). As shown, each mounting bracket130 may include a base 132 (e.g, a foot) and an attachment member 134 connected to the base 132 via an arm 135. The arm may define an outer surface 127 (as shown in FIG. IB). The base 132 may be configured to attach the mounting bracket 130 to a structure. The structure may include a window frame, a wall, a ceiling, or other structure, such that the window treatment 100 is mounted proximate to an opening (e.g., over the opening or in the opening), such as a window for example. When the mounting bracket 130 is attached to a vertical structure, such as a wall (e.g., as shown in FIG. IB), the arm 135 of the mounting bracket 130 may extend horizontally (e.g., in the radial direction R) from the base 132 to the attachment member 134. When the mounting bracket 130 is attached to a horizontal structure, such as to the bottom of a ceiling, the arm 135 may extend vertically (e.g., in the transverse direction T) from the base 132 to the attachment member 134.

[0030] Referring again to FIGs. IB and 1C, the window treatment 100 may include a sliding cover 136. The sliding cover 136 may be received by the attachment member 134 of the mounting bracket 130. The sliding cover 136 may have a circular shape or a substantially rectangular shape. The sliding cover 136 may be rotatably received by the attachment member 134. The sliding cover 136 may rotate around the longitudinal axis 112 between a closed position and an open position. When the sliding cover 136 is in the open position, the end portion 114 of the drive assembly 160 may be installed into a channel 138 (e.g., shown in FIG. 1C) of the attachment member 134. When the end portion 114 of the drive assembly 160 is fully installed in the channel 138, the sliding cover 136 may be rotated into the closed position in which the sliding cover 136 hides the end portion 114 and the channel 138 from view. The sliding cover 136 may have the same color and / or finish as the arm 135 of the mounting bracket 130 to provide a consistent appearance.

[0031] FIG. 1C is a partially exploded view of the example window treatment 100 shown in FIG. 1 A. The first mounting bracket 130a may receive the end portion 114 of the drive assembly 160 and the second mounting bracket 130b may receive an end portion (not shown) of an idler (not shown) at an opposite end of the roller tube 110 (e.g., the end portion of the idler may be similar to end portion 114 of the drive assembly 160 and may be received in a channel 138 of an attachment member 134 of mounting bracket 130b). The first mounting bracket 130a (e.g., only one of the two mounting brackets) may be configured to retain electrical wiring 180 for powering the drive assembly 160 within the roller tube 110. The electrical wiring 180 may be received into a bore viaan electrical wall box 190 mounted in the structure. The electrical wiring 180 may be electrically connected to an electric circuit within the electrical wall box 190. The electrical wall box 190 may be located at the location of one of the mounting brackets 130a, 130b (e.g., prior to installation of the mounting brackets). The base 132 of the respective mounting bracket 130a, 130b may be configured to conceal the electrical wall box 190. The electrical wiring 180 may terminate at a plug 182. The plug 182 may be configured to engage a corresponding socket 116 on the end portion 114 of the drive assembly 160. The plug 182 may be inserted into the socket 116 prior to installing the end portion 114 of the drive assembly 160 into the channel 138. After the plug 182 is connected to the socket 116, the end portion 114 of the drive assembly 160 and the end portion of the idler may be slid into the channels of the respective mounting brackets 130a, 130b (e.g., in the radial direction R when the mounting brackets are wall-mounted or in the transverse direction T when the mounting brackets are ceiling-mounted). The electrical wiring 180 may be compressed in a rear portion of the channel 138 that is not occupied by the end portion 114 of the drive assembly 160.

[0032] The mounting brackets 130a, 130b at each end of the roller tube 110 may have similar geometries (e.g., may be identical). Although the electrical wiring 180 and the plug 182 are shown as received via the first mounting bracket 130a, it should be appreciated that the second mounting bracket 130b may also receive the electrical wiring and / or a plug if the drive assembly 160 is installed at the opposite end of the roller tube 110.

[0033] The attachment member 134 of the mounting brackets 130a, 130b may include a drum 137 (e.g., a cylindrical drum). The drum 137 may extend from the inner surface 142 of the arm 135. The drum 137 may extend in the longitudinal direction L. The drum 137 may define an outer surface 139. The drum 137 may be configured to receive the end portion 114 of the drive assembly. For example, the drum 137 may define the channel 138. The sliding cover 136 may be received by the drum 137 and may surround the drum 137. The sliding cover 136 may operate around the drum 137 from the closed position to the open position. For example, the sliding cover 136 may be configured to partially surround the outer surface 139 of the drum 137. When the sliding cover 136 is in the closed position, the channel 138 and the end portion 1 14 of the drive assembly 160 or idler may not be accessible. When the sliding cover 136 is in the open position, the channel 138 and the end portion 114 of the drive assembly 160 or idler may be exposed.

[0034] The sliding cover 136 may be configured to retain the end portion 114 of the drive assembly 160 or the end portion of the idler within the channel 138. For example, the sliding cover 136 may prevent the end portion 114 of the drive assembly 160 or the end portion of the idler from becoming disengaged from the channel 138 when the sliding cover is in the closed position. When the mounting bracket 130 is wall-mounted and the sliding cover 136 is in the closed position, the sliding cover 136 may be configured to lock the end portion 114 of the drive assembly 160 or the end portion of the idler in the radial direction R. When the mounting bracket 130 is ceiling-mounted and the sliding cover 136 is closed, the sliding cover 136 may be configured to lock the end portion 114 of the drive assembly 160 or the end portion of the idler in the transverse direction T.

[0035] FIG. ID depicts the example mounting bracket 130 of the window treatment 100 of FIG. 1A with the electrical wiring 180 shown and the sliding cover 136 in an open position. FIG. IE depicts the example mounting bracket 130 without the electrical wiring 180 shown and the sliding cover 136 in a closed position. Although the electrical wiring 180 and the plug 182 are shown in FIG. ID as received via the mounting bracket 130, it should be appreciated that the mounting bracket 130 shown in FIG. IE may also receive electrical wiring and / or a plug. As previously discussed, the example mounting bracket 130 may include the base 132, the arm 135, and the attachment member 134. The base 132 may define depressions 154a, 154b on the front surface 152. The depressions 154a, 154b may have a reduced thickness when compared to a remainder of the base 132. The base 132 may include holes 156a, 156b therethrough. Each of the holes 156a, 156b may be configured to receive a fastener (not shown) for securing the mounting bracket 130 to a structure. The holes 156a, 156b may be located within the depressions 154a, 154b, respectively, such that the fasteners may be countersunk with respect to the front surface 152 of the base 132. Each of the holes 156a, 156b may be oblong shaped. For example, the holes 156a, 156b may be oblong shaped to allow for alignment of the mounting bracket 130 and / or alignment of the fasteners. The rear surface 153 of the base 132 may define a pathway 158 (e. , a groove). The pathway 158 may be configured to receive the electrical wiring 180. It should be appreciated that the mounting bracket 130 may include a base cover (e g., such as the base covers 290a, 290b shown in FIGs.2A- 2H) that cover the base 132. The base cover may be removed to expose the holes 156a, 156b in the base 132.

[0036] The channel 138 may define an opening 141 at a distal end 143 of the attachment member 134. The opening 141 may be a slot on the outer surface 139 of the drum 137. The channel 138 may extend from the opening 141 to a rear wall 146. The electrical wiring 180 may be received within the channel 138 via the bore 133. The channel 138 may be configured to retain the electrical wiring 180. The bore 133 may begin at the rear wall 146 of the channel 138 and may extend through the arm 135 and / or base 132. Additionally or alternatively, the mounting bracket 130 may include a socket (not shown) that is connected to wire 180 with plug 182 removed. As an example, the socket may be located where the bore 133 meets the channel 138. The socket may be configured to receive a plug (not shown) that is attached to the drive assembly 160 via an electrical wiring (not shown). Other variations are possible.

[0037] The channel 138 may define slots 144 on either side of the channel 138. The slots 144 may be configured such that the channel 138 is T-shaped (e.g., has a T-shaped cross section). The slots 144 may be defined by flanges 147 defined by the drum 137. The flanges 147 may be configured to retain the end portionl 14 of the drive assembly 160 within the channel 138. The flanges 147 may be configured to secure the roller tube in the transverse direction T. The channel 138 may define a side wall 148. The channel 138 may be configured such that the side wall 148 defines the intersection of the drum 137 and the inner surface 142 of the arm 134.

[0038] A spring 170 may be secured to the attachment member 134, for example, within the channel 138. For example, the spring 170 may be secured to the side wall 148 of the channel 138. As shown in FIG. ID, the spring 170 may be secured in the channel 138 using one or more fasteners 172 and / or one or more bosses 171. The spring 170 may be positioned at the opening 141 of the channel 138, for example, using the bosses 171. For example, a forward edge 178 of the spring 170 may be aligned with the opening 141 and / or the distal end 143 of the attachment member 134. The forward edge 178 may engage the side wall 148 such that the forward edge 178 is substantially flush with the side wall 148. The spring 170 may include compliant fingers 174 that are configured to engage the side wall 148 and bias a rear edge 179 of the spring 170 away from the side wall 148. For example, the rear edge 179 may be spaced away from the side wall 148. The compliant fingers 174 may be configured to flex as the end portion 114 of the drive assembly 160 is inserted into the channel 138. For example, the end portion 114 of the drive assembly 160 may apply a force on thespring 170 that pushes the rear edge 179 closer to the side wall 148. When the end portion 114 is fully inserted into the channel 138, the compliant fingers 174 may enable the rear edge 179 to exert a force on the end portion 114 of the drive assembly 160 such that the end portion 114 is retained within the channel 138. The rear edge 179 may exert the force on the end portion 114 of the drive assembly 160 in the radial direction R when the mounting bracket 130 is wall-mounted.Additionally or alternatively, the spring 170 may be configured to provide the electrical connections to the drive assembly 160 (e.g., rather than the socket 116).

[0039] In addition, a spring (e.g., the spring 170) could be secured to the end portion 114 of the drive assembly 160. The channel 138 of the mounting bracket 130 may include a protuberance (not shown) around which the spring may flex as the end portion 114 is inserted into the channel. When the end portion 114 is fully inserted into the channel 138, the protuberance may exert a force on the spring for retaining the end portion. The other mounting bracket (e.g., 130a) may be similarly secured to the end portion of the idler end of the roller tube 110 and engage with the mounting bracket in a similar manner. The other mounting bracket may not include the wire 180 and / or bore 133.

[0040] FIGs. 1F-1 J depict projection views of the example mounting bracket 130 shown in FIGs. ID and IE. The base 132 may define a front surface 152 and a rear surface 153. The front surface 152 may be a distance D6 from the rear surface 153. The base 132 may define a depression 154 configured such that a fastener can be countersunk with respect to the base 132 (e.g., the front surface 152 of the base 132). The depression 154 may be a distance D7 from the rear surface 153. The distance D6 may be substantially greater than the distance D7. The pathway 158 may extend to (e.g., overlap) the bore 133 such that electrical wiring can be routed through the mounting bracket 130 from the electrical wall box 190 via the pathway 158 and the bore 133 to the drive assembly 160.

[0041] The attachment member 134 may define flanges 147a, 147b along the channel 138. The flanges 147a, 147b may correspond to slots 144a, 144b. The slots 144a, 144b may be configured such that the channel 138 is T-shaped. The slots 144a, 144b may be configured to receive the end portion 114 of the drive assembly 160 or the end portion of the idler. The flanges 147a, 147b may be configured to secure the roller tube along the longitudinal direction L (e.g., alongthe longitudinal axis 112 shown in FIG. 1 A). In addition, the flanges 147a, 147b may be configured to secure the roller tube in the transverse direction T when the mounting bracket 130 is wall- mounted and in the radial direction R when the mounting bracket 130 is ceiling-mounted. The opening 141 may be a distance D8 from the distal end 143 of the attachment member 134.

[0042] FIG. 2A is a right-side perspective view and FIG. 2B is a left-side perspective view of an example center mounting bracket 230, which may be located between two roller tubes (not shown) of adjacent window treatments. The center mounting bracket 230 may include two attachment members 234a, 234b connected to a base 232 via a single arm 235. The base 232 may be configured to attach the center mounting bracket 230 to a structure (e.g, a window frame, a wall, a ceiling, or other structure). Two sliding covers 236a, 236b may be rotatably received by the respective attachment members 234a, 234b of the mounting bracket 230. The sliding covers 236a, 236b may each be rotated between a closed position (e.g., as shown in FIGs. 2A and 2B) and an open position as similarly shown above. Each sliding cover 236a, 236b may have a circular shape, a substantially rectangular shape, or another shape. Each sliding cover 236a, 236b may be rotatably received by the respective attachment member 234a, 234b.

[0043] Each attachment member 234a, 234b may define a respective channel 238a, 238b that may be configured to receive an end portion 114 of a drive assembly or idler of each of the adjacently-mounted window treatments (e.g., configured for sliding receipt of the respective end portion). The sliding covers 236a, 236b may be configured to cover the respective channels 238a, 238b when the end portions are fully received within the channels. The sliding covers 236a, 236b may be configured to retain the end portions within the respective channels 238a, 238b. The channels 238a, 238b may be configured to lock the respective roller tubes in position along a longitudinal direction of the roller tubes such that translational movement of the roller tube in the longitudinal direction is prevented. The channels 238a, 238b may each have a T-shaped cross section.

[0044] The center mounting bracket 230 may define bores 233a, 233b that each may extend from the channels 238a, 238b of the respective attachment members 234a, 234b through the arm 235 and / or the base 232. The bores 233 may each be configured to receive electrical wiring (e.g, the electrical wiring 180 shown in FIG. ID) for powering the drive assemblies of the adjacently-mounted window treatments. The center mounting bracket 230 may include springs 270a, 270b, which may be secured within the respective channels 238a, 238b. The springs 270a, 270b may be configured to secure the end portions of the drive assemblies within the respective channels 238a, 238b. Each spring 270a, 270b may be configured to flex as the end portion of the drive assembly is inserted into the respective channel 238a, 238b.

[0045] FIGs. 2C-2H depict projection views of the example center mounting bracket 230 shown in FIGs. 2A and 2B. The base 232 may extend from both sides of the arm 235 and may be covered by base covers 290a, 290b on each side of the arm 235. The base covers 290a, 290b may be removed to expose holes 256a, 256b, 256c, 256d in the base 232 that may be configured to receive fasteners (not shown) for securing the center mounting bracket 230 to the structure. The holes 256a, 256b, 256c, 256d may be located within depressions (not shown) defined on a front surface of the base 232, such that the fasteners may be countersunk with respect to the front surface of the base. Each of the holes 256a, 256b, 256c, 256d may be oblong shaped to allow for alignment of the mounting bracket 230 and / or alignment of the fasteners. The holes 256a, 256b, 256c, 256d may be arranged in a non-linear (e.g., two-by-two) orientation for providing support for the center mounting bracket 230.

[0046] The holes 256a, 256b may define a first attachment area of the base 232, and the holes 256c, 256d may define a second attachment area on the opposing side of the base 232. The base 232 may define a wall box hiding area between the first and second attachment areas. An electrical wall box (e.g., the electrical wall box 190) may be positioned on the structure to align with / substantially align with the wall box hiding area of the center mounting bracket 230. For example, the electrical wall box 190 may be such that it is hidden behind the base 232 of the center mounting bracket 230. The base 232 may define a pathway 258 (e.g., a groove) configured to receive the electrical wiring. The pathway 258 may define a center portion 257. The center portion 257 may allow the electrical wiring to extend from the bores 233a, 233b into the electrical wall box 190, when the electrical wall box 190 is located behind the base 232. The pathway 258 may include portions 259a, 259b that may allow the electrical wiring to extend from the respective bores 233a, 233b to respective sides 251a, 251b of the base 232 when an electrical wall box 190 is not mounted behind the base 232.

[0047] FIG. 3 A depicts an example jamb mounting bracket 330. A sliding cover 336 may be rotatably connected to the bracket. FIG. 3A shows the sliding cover in an open position. FIG. 3B depicts the example jamb mounting bracket 330 with the sliding cover 336 in a closed position. The jamb mounting bracket 330 may be similar to the mounting brackets 130 shown in FIGs. 1D-1E. For example, unlike the mounting brackets 130, the jamb mounting bracket 330 may not include an arm (e.g., the arm 135 of the mounting bracket 130). Instead, the jamb mounting bracket 330 may define a base 332 and an attachment member 334, which are both circular. The base 332 may be configured to be jamb-mounted (e.g., within a window jamb). The attachment member 334 of the jamb mounting bracket 330 may define a drum 337. The drum 337 may extend from the base 332 and the sliding cover 336 may surround the drum 337. The base 332 and the sliding cover 336 may have substantially the same outer diameter.

[0048] The jamb mounting bracket 330 may define holes 356a, 356b therethrough. The holes 356a, 356b may be configured to receive fasteners (not shown) for securing the jamb mounting bracket 330 to a structure (e.g., a wall or a window jamb). The holes 356a, 356b may be configured such that the fasteners are countersunk with respect to an inner surface 345 of the drum 337. The jamb mounting bracket 330 may define a flat surface 358 on one side that may aide in aligning the jamb mounting bracket during installation. For example, an installer may place a spacer that has parallel planar surfaces (e.g., a block of wood or a level) against the structure (e.g., so that a first planar surface of the spacer is against the structure), and place the flat surface 358 of the jamb mounting bracket 330 against the second parallel planar surface of the spacer. The installer may then drive the fasteners through the holes 356a, 356b while the flat surface 358 of the jamb mounting bracket 330 is against the second planar surface of the spacer.

[0049] The attachment member 334 of the jamb mounting bracket 330 (e.g., the drum 337) may define a channel 338. The channel 338 may define an opening 341. The opening 341 may be a slot on an outer surface 339 of the drum 337. The channel 338 may extend from the opening 341 to a rear wall 346. Although not shown in FIGs. 3 A and 3B, electrical wiring (e.g., electrical wiring 180) may be received within the channel 338 via a bore 333. The channel 338 may be configured to retain the electrical wiring.

[0050] The channel 338 may define slots 344 on either side of the channel 338. The slots 344 may be configured such that the channel 338 is T-shaped (e.g., has a T-shaped cross section). The slots 344 may be defined by flanges 347 that are defined by the drum 337. The flanges 347 may be configured to retain an end portion 114 of a drive assembly or an end portion of an idler within the channel 338. The flanges 347 may be configured to secure the roller tube in the transverse direction T. The channel 338 may define a side wall 351. The side wall 351 may be a forward surface of the base 332.

[0051] The jamb mounting bracket 330 may include a spring 370. The spring 370 may be secured to the jamb mounting bracket 330, for example, within the channel 338. For example, the spring 370 may be secured to the side wall 351 of the channel 338. The spring 370 may be secured in the channel 338 using one or more fasteners 372 and / or one or more bosses 371. The spring 370 may be positioned at the opening 341 of the channel 338, for example, using the bosses 371. For example, a forward edge 376 of the spring 370 may be aligned with the opening 341 and / or an outer edge 343 of the jamb mounting bracket 330. The forward edge 376 may engage the side wall 351 such that the forward edge 376 is substantially flush with the side wall 351. The spring 370 may include compliant fingers 374 that are configured to engage the side wall 351 and bias a rear edge 378 of the spring 370 away from the side wall 351. For example, the rear edge 378 may be spaced away from the side wall 351. The compliant fingers 374 may be configured to flex as the end portion of the drive assembly is inserted into the channel 338. For example, the end portion of the drive assembly may apply a force on the spring 370 that pushes the rear edge 378 closer to the side wall 351. When the roller tube is fully inserted into the channel 338, the compliant fingers 374 may enable the rear edge 378 to exert a force on the end of the drive assembly or the end of the idler such that the end is retained within the channel 338. The rear edge 378 may exert the force on the end of the drive assembly in the radial direction R.

[0052] The sliding cover 336 may define one or more barbs (not shown). The barbs may be configured to secure the sliding cover 336 in a closed position or an open position. The drum 337 may define one or more notches (not shown). The notches may be configured to receive a respective barb of the barbs. For example, the sliding cover 336 may define two barbs positioned at distal ends of the sliding cover 336.

[0053] FIGs. 3C-3G depict projection views of the example jamb mounting bracket 330 shown in FIGs. 3A and 3B with the sliding cover 336 in the open position. FIGs. 3H-3L depict projection views of the example jamb mounting bracket 330 with the sliding cover 336 in the closed position. The base 332 and the sliding cover 336 may be characterized by an outer diameter DIO, which may be approximately equal to the diameter of the roller tube 110 (e.g., approximately two inches). The inner surface 345 may be a distance Dl l from an outer surface 348 of the base 332 to the inner surface 345 of the drum 337. The base 332 may be characterized by a distance D12 (e.g., a width) between the outer surface 348 and an inner surface 349 of the base 332, which may be, for example, approximately 0.20 inches. The attachment member 334 may be characterized by a distance D13 (e.g., a width) between the inner surface 349 of the base 332 and the inner surface 345 of the drum 337, which may be, for example, approximately 0.25 inches. The distance DI 1 may be, for example, approximately 0.45 inches. The distance Dl l may define a minimum light gap that may exist between an edge of the flexible material and the structure. For example, the distance Dl l may be configured such that the minimum light gap is 0.5 inches or less.

[0054] The jamb mounting bracket 330 may define flanges 347a, 447b along the channel 338. The flanges 347a, 347b may correspond to slots 344a, 344b, respectively. The slots 344a, 344b may be configured such that the channel 338 is T-shaped. The slots 344a, 344b may be configured to receive an end portion 114 of a drive assembly or an end portion of an idler. The flanges 347a, 347b may be configured to secure a roller tube along the longitudinal direction L e.g., along the longitudinal axis 112 shown in FIG. 1 A). In addition, the flanges 347a, 347b may be configured to secure the roller tube in the transverse direction T. The opening 341 may be a distance D14 from the outer edge 343 of the jamb mounting bracket 330 (e.g., the base 332 of the jamb mounting bracket 330).

[0055] Though the mounting brackets shown herein may be illustrated with a rounded front surface, the mounting brackets may have front surfaces of another shape. For example, mounting brackets 130, 230, 330 may have front surfaces of another shape, such as, for example, a rectangular shape, a square shape, a triangular shape, an oval shape, or any suitable shape. In addition, the side surfaces of the mounting brackets 130, 230, 330 may have different shapes and may be planar or non-planar. Further, the surfaces of the mounting brackets 130, 230, 330 may be characterized byvarious colors, finishes, designs, patterns, etc. Though examples are provided for window treatments, brackets, and / or portions thereof, these are merely provided as examples and the embodiments described herein may be implemented for other configurations of window treatments, brackets, and / or portions thereof. The embodiments described herein may be implemented for various configurations implemented for manual and / or motorized window treatments.

[0056] In order to properly install the window treatments described herein, an individual installing the window treatment may be trained on proper installation of the window treatments, and / or portions thereof, in the different mounting installations and / or using different brackets, as described herein. For example, dealers of window treatments and / or other contractors, representatives, or third parties may be leveraged to assist with installation of the window treatments. As there are a number of different types of window treatments that may be purchased for being installed, as well as different mounting brackets (e.g., mounting brackets 130, 230, 330) and / or mounting locations, individuals may be trained for installation of different types of window treatments and / or brackets in different mounting locations. The mounting brackets 130 may be installed between opposing sides of a roller tube of a window treatment. For example, the mounting brackets 130 may be mounted to locations on a structure (e.g, vertical or horizontal structure) outside of a recess of a window frame, such as an external wall, ceiling, external portion of the window frame, or other external structure. The mounting brackets 130 may also, or alternatively, be mounted to a structure inside the recess of the window frame, such as an internal portion (e.g., top) of window frame. The mounting brackets 230 may be installed between two roller tubes of adjacent motorized window treatments. The mounting brackets 230 may be configured to attach to a structure (e.g, vertical or horizontal structure) outside of a recess of a window frame, such as an external wall, ceiling, external portion of the window frame, or other external structure. The mounting brackets 230 may also, or alternatively, be mounted to a structure inside the recess of the window frame, such as an internal portion (e.g., top) of the window frame. The mounting brackets 330 may be installed between opposing sides of a roller tube of a motorized window treatment. The mounting bracket 330 may be configured to attach to a structure (e.g., vertical structure) inside of a recess of a window frame, such as an internal portion of the window frame.

[0057] Individuals may be trained on proper installation of the window treatments, and / or portions thereof, in the different mounting installations and / or using different brackets using training kits that may include components and / or different mounting installation configurations for mounting the window treatment on which the individuals may be trained. For example, the training kits may include components for configuring various structures (e.g., vertical and horizontal structures) to simulate an inside and / or an outside of a window frame to which mounting brackets may be installed for training purposes. It may be beneficial for the training kit to include the components that are used for configuring the structure to which the mounting brackets may be installed, while also being of a size and / or weight that is below a certain threshold for enabling an easier and / or more cost effective transportation to multiple training locations. For example, the threshold size and / or weight may be set for the components and / or a container in which the components are stored for meeting a threshold shipping cost and / or requirements for shipping or travel. In one example, the threshold size and / or weight may include a size and / or weight requirement for containers (e.g., having length, width, and depth dimensions) for checked luggage on a flight. In one example, the container may include a PELICAN 1615 AIR CASE, or a container meeting similar size and / or weight requirements for checked luggage on an airplane (e.g., a maximum certified airline check-in size) or other shipping / transportation requirements. When the size and / or weight of the training kit meet the threshold requirements, the training kit may be easily transported, which may allow for training groups of individuals at different locations and / or via a remote training course.

[0058] Examples are described herein for different components of training kits that may be used for configuring the structure to which the mounting brackets may be installed. FIGs. 4A and 4B illustrate a front view and perspective view, respectively, of a training kit 400 in a single-shade inside-mount installation configuration 401a for mounting brackets of a window treatment, such as the mounting brackets 130 as shown in FIGs. 1A-1J, the center mounting bracket 230 as shown in FIGs. 2A-2H, and / or the jamb mounting bracket 330 shown in FIGs. 3A-3L. As shown in FIGs. 4A and 4B, the training kit 400 may include a base support structure 419 and / or a mounting structure 402. The training kit 400 may be configured in the single-shade inside-mount installation configuration 401a. When the base support structure 419 is installed on and / or fastened to a horizontal structure, such as to a top surface of a table 405 or a top surface of a floor, the basesupport structure 419 may extend vertically (e.g., in the transverse direction T) from the horizontal structure.

[0059] The base support structure 419 may include a first support member 420a and / or a second support member 420b. Each of the support members 420a, 420b may be separated by a distance DI 5 from a center portion in the lateral direction. Each of the support members 420a, 420b may include one or more structural components. For example, the first support member 420a may include a lower structural component 423a that may abut and / or be fastened to the horizontal structure (e.g., the top surface of the table 405). The first support member 420a may include a front structural component 424a and a rear structural component 425a. The front structural component 424a and rear structural component 425a may extend a distance D17 from the lower structural component 423a. In an example, the distance D17 may be in a range of about 10 to about 15 inches (e.g., 12 to 13 inches, such as 12.25 inches) in length. The front structural component 424a and rear structural component 425a may be parallel to one another and located a distance D18 apart from one another. In an example, the distance DI 8 may be in a range of about 10 to about 35 inches (e.g., 20 to 26 inches, such as 23.875 inches) in length. The first support member 420a may include an upper structural component 426a (as shown in FIG. 4B) configured to support the mounting structure 402. The upper structural component 426a may be detachably fastened to the mounting structure 402. The lower structural component 423a and the upper structural component 426a may be parallel to one another and each attached to respective opposing ends of the front structural component 424a and the rear structural component 425a.

[0060] As shown in FIGs. 4A and 4B, the second support member 420b may include a similar configuration to the first support member 420a. For example, the second support member 420b may include a lower structural component 423b that may abut and / or be fastened to the horizontal structure (e.g., the top surface of the table 405). The second support member 420b may include a front structural component 424b and a rear structural component 425b. The front structural component 424b and rear structural component 425b may extend the distance D17 from the lower structural component 423b. The front structural component 424b and rear structural component 425b may be parallel to one another and installed the distance DI 8 apart from one another. The second support member 420b may include an upper structural component 426b configured tosupport the mounting structure 402. The upper structural component 426b may be detachably fastened to the mounting structure 402. The lower structural component 423b and the upper structural component 426b may be parallel to one another and each attached to respective opposing ends of the front structural component 424b and the rear structural component 425b. The lower structural component 423b, the front structural component 424b, the rear structural component 425b, and the upper structural component 426b of the second support member 420b may define an opening 421b within the structural components. As shown in FIG. 4B, the lower structural component 423a, the front structural component 424a, the rear structural component 425a, and the upper structural component 426a of the first support member 420a may similarly define an opening 421a within the structural components. One will appreciate that the base support structure 419 may have other configurations such that the mounting structure 402 is elevated above / supported above a horizontal structure, such as the top surface of table 405 or the top surface of the floor.

[0061] The mounting structure 402 may include a first mounting structure portion 404 and / or a second mounting structure portion 406. The first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406 may each have a respective first planar portion 408, 410. Sidewall 403a, sidewall 403b, and top wall 403c of first mounting structure portion 404, and sidewall 407a, sidewall 407b, and bottom wall 407c of second mounting structure portion 406 may be configured to define a recess 409 of the mounting structure 402 representing a recess within a window frame. The first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406 may be adjoined at respective ends 429a, 429b with the respective first planar portion 408, 410 of the first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406 being positioned in the radial direction. The second mounting structure portion 406 may be fastened to the base support structure 419 to support the mounting structure 402. For example, the bottom wall 407c of the second mounting structure portion 406 may be fastened to the first support member 420a (e.g., the upper structural component 426a) and the second support member 420b (e.g., the upper structural component 426b) for supporting the mounting structure 402.

[0062] The respective first planar portion 408, 410 of the first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406 (e.g., the top wall 403c, the bottom wall 407c) may each extend a distance D16 in the longitudinal direction L (e.g., width), and the top wall 403c, thebottom wall 407c, and the sidewalls 403a, 403b, 407a, and 407b of the first and second mounting structure portions 404 and 406 may each extend a distance D21 (shown in FIG. 4A) in the radial direction (e.g., depth) when mounted and / or fastened to the base support structure 419 in the singleshade inside-mount installation configuration 401a. The distance D16 may be sized to allow for mounting of a window treatment of a particular length, and that length may be approximately equal to the distance DI 6. The window treatment may be installed within the recess 409. In one example, the distance D16 may be in a range of about 25 to about 32 inches (e.g., about 26 inches to about 29 inches, such about as 27.25 inches) in length. The distance D21 may be in a range of about 3 inches to about 7 inches (e.g., about 4 inches to about 6 inches, such as about 5 inches) in length. In another example, the length of the window treatment to be installed may extend a greater distance than the distance D16 for an external mounting configuration comprising brackets that may be fastened outside of the recess 409 in the longitudinal direction L. The distance D21 may define a depth of the recess 409 in which the window treatment may be installed. The first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406 (e.g., the sidewalls 403a, 403b, 407a, and 407b) may each extend for a respective distance DI 9, D20 in the vertical (e.g., transverse) direction (e.g., height). The distance D19 and distance D20 may be the same or different. The sum of the distances D19 and D20 may define the height of the recess 409 of the mounting structure 402 defining the window recess when the training kit 400 is in the single-shade inside-mount installation configuration 401a. In an example, the distance D19 may be in a range of about 10 to about 18 inches (e.g., about 12 inches to about 16 inches, such as about 14.5 inches) in length. The distance D20 may be in a range of about 10 to about 18 inches (e.g., about 12 to about 16 inches, such as about 14.5 inches) in length.

[0063] The mounting structure 402 may include mounting targets that identify locations on the mounting structure 402 configured to receive one or more fasteners for securing mounting brackets (e.g., mounting brackets 130, 230, 330) to the mounting structure 402. For example, the first mounting structure portion 404 may include a first mounting target plate 414a and a second mounting target plate 414b on respective sidewalls 403a, 403b. The first mounting target plate 414a and the second mounting target plate 414b may be located at opposing internal surfaces of the respective sidewalls 403a, 403b, such that respective mounting brackets (e.g., mounting brackets 330) may be fastened to the first mounting target plate 414a and the second mounting target plate414b for a jamb mount installation in the recess 409. The first mounting target plate 414a and the second mounting target plate 414b may extend a depth of distance D21 of the respective sidewalls 403a, 403b, or a portion thereof that is sufficient to receive a fastener for securing mounting brackets, supporting a surface of the mounting bracket (e.g., outer surface 343 of mounting bracket 330), and / or identifying a target location for securing the mounting brackets. For example, the first mounting target plate 414a and the second mounting target plate 414b may each extend a width of a mounting bracket or a distance of the fasteners to be installed for mounting the mounting brackets. The first mounting target plate 414a and the second mounting target plate 414b may be removable from the respective sidewalls 403a, 403b of the first planar portion 408 of the first mounting structure portion 404 such that they may be replaced with new target plates or reversed, etc. For example, the first mounting target plate 414a and the second mounting target plate 414b may be secured to the respective sidewalls 403a, 403b using one or more fasteners (e. ., screw, nail, t rails, t slot channels, t slot rail fastener system, or other fastener) and may be removed and replaced or reversed from the respective sidewalls 403a, 403b by removal of the fasteners. In an example in which t rails or t slot channels are implemented, one component may include a t rail or t slot channel and the other component may include a t rail or t slot fastener, such as a bolt and t slot nut or other fastener capable of securing to the t rail or t slot channels. The first mounting target plate 414a and the second mounting target plate 414b may have the same or similar configuration, such that the first mounting target plate 414a and the second mounting target plate 414b are interchangeable on the sidewalls 403a, 403b. Either of the first mounting target plate 414a or the second mounting target plate 414b may be reversable, such that either side may receive one or more fasteners for securing mounting brackets ( .g., mounting brackets 330). The first mounting target plate 414a and / or the second mounting target plate 414b may be removed from the respective sidewall 403a, 403b, flipped in a horizontal or vertical axis, and resecured to the respective sidewall 403a, 403b to allow for holes from a previously secured mounting bracket to be hidden during training. The first mounting target plate 414a and / or the second mounting target plate 414b may be removed from the respective sidewall 403a, 403b and replaced. The first mounting target plate 414a and / or the second mounting target plate 414b may be removed from the respective sidewall 403a, 403b to allow the mounting structure 402 to be used for multiple installations of shades for successive trainings. When the first mounting target plate 414a, 414b include one or more holes (e.g., too many holes for training), thefirst mounting target plates 414a, 414b may be flipped or swapped with other mounting target plates for fresh mounting target plates to be used in training.

[0064] The first planar portion 410 of the second mounting structure portion 406 may include a first mounting target plate 417a and a second mounting target plate 417b on respective sidewalls 407a, 407b. The first mounting target plate 417a and the second mounting target plate 417b may be located at opposing internal surfaces of the respective sidewalls 407a, 407b. The first mounting target plate 417a and the second mounting target plate 417b may extend a length D20 of the respective sidewalls 407a, 407b, or a portion thereof. The first mounting target plate 417a and the second mounting target plate 417b may have the same or similar configuration as the first mounting target plate 414a and the second target mounting target plate 414b. The first mounting target plate 417a and the second mounting target plate 417b may be removable from the respective sidewalls 407a, 407b of the second mounting structure portion 406. For example, the first mounting target plate 417a and the second mounting target plate 417b may be secured to the respective sidewalls 407a, 407b using one or more fasteners and may be removed from the respective sidewalls 407a, 407b by removal of the fastener. The first mounting target plate 417a or the second mounting target plate 417b may be removed from the respective sidewall 407a, 407b and may be interchangeable with the first mounting target plate 414a or the second mounting target plate 414b, as the first mounting target plate 417a and the second mounting target plate 417b may not be located in a position in the recess 409 for securing a mounting bracket. The exchanging of the first mounting target plate 417a or the second mounting target plate 417b with the first mounting target plate 414a or the second mounting target plate 414b may allow for holes from a previously secured mounting bracket to be hidden during training. When the first mounting target plate 414a, 414b include one or more holes (e.g., too many holes for training), the first mounting target plates 414a, 414b may be swapped with mounting target plates 417a 417b (e.g., may operate as spare mounting plates) for fresh mounting target plates to be used in training.

[0065] Though the mounting structure 402 shown in FIGs. 4A and 4B show the first mounting target plate 414a and the second mounting target plate 414b in particular locations on internal surfaces of respective sidewalls 403a, 403b of the recess 409, mounting target plates may be placed in other target mounting locations for receiving one or more fasteners for securing mountingbrackets (e.g., mounting brackets 130, 230, 330) to other target locations on the mounting structure 402. For example, the mounting structure 402 may include one or more mounting target plates 414a and 414b on an internal surface of the top wall 403 c of the first mounting structure portion 404 for identifying a target location for training an individual in securing mounting brackets (e.g., mounting brackets 130) to a structure, such as a top of a window frame, for proper installation of a motorized window treatment. Additionally, though the mounting structure 402 shown in FIGs. 4A and 4B show the first mounting target plate 417a and the second mounting target plate 417b in certain locations, mounting target plates may be placed in other locations for being stored as replacements for the mounting target plates at a target location for training an individual in securing mounting brackets for proper installation of a motorized window treatment.

[0066] Though FIGs. 4A and 4B illustrate the mounting structure 402 and the base support structure 419 extending vertically (e.g., in the transverse direction) from the top surface of the table 405 with the first support member 420a and the second support member 420b being fastened directly to the table 405, the base support structure 419 may include other components and / or may be installed on another horizontal structure. For example, FIG. 4C illustrates a front view of a single-shade insidemount installation configuration 401b, in which the base support structure 419 may include a base layer (e.g., container 422) to which the first support member 420a and the second support member 420b may be fastened. A first exterior surface 441 of the container 422 may be proximate and / or be fastened to (e.g., may abut) the top surface of the table 405. A second exterior surface 443 of the container 422 may be proximate and / or be fastened to (e.g., may abut) the first support member 420a and the second support member 420b. The container 422 may extend a distance D22 from the first exterior surface 441 to the second exterior surface 443, which may increase a distance (e.g., height) that the base layer 419 and the mounting structure 402 extend in the vertical (e. ., transverse) direction from the top surface of the table 405 or another horizontal surface. In an example, as shown in FIG. 4C, the mounting structure 402 and the base layer 419 may be fastened onto the container 422 (using respective straps 440a, 440b or another type of fastener), where the container 422 is placed on the top surface of the table 405 or another horizontal surface, so that the top wall 403 c is about the height of a normal window. In another example, the distance D22 may be in a range of about 8 to about 18 inches (e.g., about 9 inches to about 16 inches, such as about 11.375 inches) in length.

[0067] FIG. 4D illustrates a perspective view of the second exterior surface 443 of the container 422 abutting and fastened to the second support member 420b. The second exterior surface 443 may similarly be configured for abutting and being fastened to the first support member 420a. As shown in FIG. 4D, the second exterior surface 443 of the container 422 may include a track 430b configured to receive the lower structural component 423b of the second support member 420b. The track 430b may include raised edges that are a distance D23 apart in the longitudinal direction L (e.g., similar to the width of the lower structural component 423b in the same direction). The raised edges of the track 430b may prevent the second support member 420b from moving in the longitudinal direction L.

[0068] The track 430b may include one or more slats, such as a first slat 432b and / or a second slat 434b, which may extend across the track 430b in the longitudinal direction L. The lower structural component 423b of the second support member 420b may include notches, such as a first notch 427b and a second notch 428b. The first notch 427b and the second notch 428b may be configured to receive the first slat 432b and the second slat 434b, respectively, to hinder movement of the second support member 420b in the radial direction R.

[0069] The second support member 420b may be fastened to the container 422 to prevent the second support member 420b from moving and / or tipping in the radial direction R or the longitudinal direction L. In one example, the second support member 420b may be fastened to the container 422 using a strap 440b. However, another type of fastener (e.g., screw, nail, t rails, t slot channels, t slot rail fastener system, or other fastener) may be similarly implemented. The lower structural component 423b of the second support member 420b may be configured to receive the strap 440b. For example, the lower structural component 423b of the second support member 420b may include a rear slot 436b at or near a rear end 491b at which the lower structural component 423b meets the rear structural component 425b. The lower structural component 423b of the second support member 420b may include a front slot 438b at or near a front end 492b at which the lower structural component 423b meets the front structural component 424b. The rear slot 436b and the front slot 438b may be configured to receive the strap 440b (e.g., within the opening 421b). The strap 440b may extend around the container 422 and / or the table 405 for securing the second support member 420b to thecontainer and / or the second support member 420b and the container 422 to the table 405. The straps 440a, 440b may be secured to the table 405 without the container 422.

[0070] Though FIG. 4D illustrates the second exterior surface 443 of the container 422 abutting and being fastened to the second support member 420b, the second exterior surface 443 of the container 422 may include another track 430a (shown in FIG. 4C) with a similar configuration on an opposing end of the second exterior surface 443 that is configured for receiving and securing the first support member 420a. The track 430a may have a similar structure as the track 430b shown in FIG. 4D. Additionally, the configuration of the first support member 420a may be similar to the configuration of the second support member 420b.

[0071] As described herein, the training kit 400 shown in the single-shade inside-mount installation configuration 401a and / or the single-shade inside-mount installation configuration 401b may be configured with a recess 409 that defines an area representing a window for training for an internal jamb mount installation of a window treatment. For example, an individual may be trained to install a jamb mounting bracket on each side of the recess 409 and / or install a window treatment to each of the brackets. The training kit 400 may include components for creating different installation configurations, the brackets for different types of installations, and / or one or more window treatments. For example, the training kit 400 may include the jamb mounting brackets and a proper length window treatment for being installed between the jamb mounting brackets. The training kit 400 may include components to be used for other installation configurations to assist in training for installation of other mounting configurations for window treatments. For example, the training kit 400 may include other components, mounting brackets, and / or a proper length window treatment for other mounting installations.

[0072] FIG. 4E illustrates a front view of a single-shade external outside-mount installation configuration 401c (e.g., window treatment is mounted outside of window jamb / recess 409). As shown in FIG. 4E, the mounting structure 402 may include a third mounting structure portion 450 that is configured to receive one or more fasteners for securing one or more mounting brackets (e.g., the mounting bracket 130). FIG. 4F illustrates a perspective view of the third mounting structure portion 450 independent of the other portions (e.g. the first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406) of the mounting structure 402. The training kit 400 may include thethird mounting structure portion 450, mounting brackets for an external outside-mount installation configuration (e.g., outside of the window j amb / recess 409), and / or a window treatment for being installed between the mounting brackets (e.g., which may be longer than the window treatment installed within the window j amb / recess 409).

[0073] As shown in FIGs. 4E and 4F, the third mounting structure portion 450 may include a ceiling-mounting portion 452 and / or a wall-mounting portion 456 for mounting brackets to be installed for a window treatment. The length of the window treatment to be installed may extend about the distance D16 (shown in FIGs. 4A and 4B) or a greater distance than the distance D16 for an external mounting configuration comprising brackets that may be fastened outside of the recess 409 in the longitudinal direction L. The ceiling-mounting portion 452 and the wall-mounting portion 456 may be affixed to each other and extend perpendicular to one another from adjoining first ends 493 and 494 that extend in the longitudinal direction L. As shown in FIG. 4E, a second end 495 of the wallmounting portion 456 may be configured to be detachably fastened to and / or to abut the top wall 403c of the first mounting structure portion 404. The wall-mounting portion 456 may define a vertical (e.g., in the transverse direction) surface 459 to which mounting brackets (e.g., the mounting brackets 130, 230) of a window treatment may be mounted when the third mounting structure portion 450 is mounted and / or fastened to and / or abuts the top wall 403c of the first mounting structure portion 404. The wallmounting portion 456 may define a surface area by a distance D24 horizontally (e.g., in the longitudinal direction L) and a distance D25 vertically (e.g., in the transverse direction T) when third mounting structure portion 450 is mounted and / or fastened to and / or abuts the top wall 403c of the first mounting structure portion 404. The distance D24 may be the same as or similar to the distance D16 of the first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406.

[0074] The ceiling-mounting portion 452 may define a horizontal structure to which mounting brackets (e.g., the mounting brackets 130, 230) of a window treatment may be mounted when the third mounting structure portion 450 is mounted and / or fastened to and / or abuts the top wall 403c of the first mounting structure portion 404. The ceiling-mounting portion 452 may extend to a second end 449 in the radial direction R from the first end 493 at which the ceiling-mounting portion 452 is connected to the wall-mounting portion 456 when the third mounting structure portion 450 is mounted and / or fastened to the top wall 403c of the first mounting structure portion 404. Theceiling-mounting portion 452 may define a surface area by a distance D24 in the longitudinal direction L and a distance D26 in the radial direction R when third mounting structure portion 450 is mounted and / or fastened to the top wall 403 c of the first mounting structure portion 404.

[0075] As shown in FIGs. 4E and 4F, the third mounting structure portion 450 may include mounting targets that identify target locations on the mounting structure portion 450 configured to receive one or more fasteners for securing mounting brackets (e.g., the mounting brackets 130, 230) to target locations on the mounting structure portion 450. For example, the wall-mounting portion 456 of the third mounting structure portion 450 may include a first mounting target plate 458a and a second mounting target plate 458b on respective ends of the wall mounting portion 456, such that respective mounting brackets may be fastened to the first mounting target plate 458a and the second mounting target plate 458b for an outside-mount installation above the recessed first planar portions 408, 410 of the first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406. The first mounting target plate 458a and the second mounting target plate 458b may extend a defined distance along the opposing ends of the wall-mounting portion 456 that is sufficient to receive fasteners for securing mounting brackets, securing a base (e.g., base 132) of the mounting brackets, and / or identifying a target location for securing the mounting brackets. For example, the first mounting target plate 458a and the second mounting target plate 458b may each extend distance equal to a width of a mounting bracket or a distance between openings in the bracket for the fasteners to be installed for mounting the mounting brackets. The first mounting target plate 458a and the second mounting target plate 458b may be removable from the wall-mounting portion 456 of the third mounting structure portion 450. For example, the first mounting target plate 458a and the second mounting target plate 458b may be secured to the wall-mounting portion 456 using one or more fasteners and may be removed from the wall-mounting portion 456 by removal of the fasteners. The first mounting target plate 458a and the second mounting target plate 458b may have the same or similar configuration, such that the first mounting target plate 458a and the second mounting target plate 458b are interchangeable on the wall-mounting portion 456. Either of the first mounting target plate 458a and the second mounting target plate 458b may be flipped and / or rotated in a horizontal or vertical axis, such that either side may receive one or more fasteners for securing mounting brackets (e.g., mounting brackets 130) as the mounting target plates are used successively for multiple trainings. For example, the first mounting target plate 458a and the second mountingtarget plate 458b may be removed from the wall mounting portion 456, reversed, and resecured to the wall mounting portion 456 to allow for holes from a previously secured mounting bracket to be hidden during successive trainings. In addition, either of the first mounting target plate 458a and the second mounting target plate 458b may be replaced with new mounting target plates after one or more trainings. The first mounting target plate 458a and the second mounting target plate 458b of the wall-mounting portion 456 may have the same or similar configuration as the first mounting target plate 414a and / or the second mounting target plate 414b of the first mounting structure portion 404, such that the mounting target plates are interchangeable between the wall-mounting portion 456 and the first mounting structure portion 404.

The first mounting target plate 454a and the second mounting target plate 454b may extend a defined portion of the opposing ends of the ceiling-mounting portion 452 that is sufficient to receive one or more fasteners for securing mounting brackets, securing a base (e.g., base 132) of the mounting brackets, and / or identifying a target location for securing the mounting brackets. For example, the first mounting target plate 454a and the second mounting target plate 454b may each extend a distance that is at least a width of a mounting bracket or a distance between openings in the bracket for the fasteners to be installed for mounting the mounting brackets. The first mounting target plate 454a and the second mounting target plate 454b may be removable from the ceiling mounting portion 452 of the third mounting structure portion 450. For example, the first mounting target plate 454a and the second mounting target plate 454b may be secured to the ceiling-mounting portion 452 using one or more fasteners and may be removed from the ceiling-mounting portion 452 by removal of the fastener. The first mounting target plate 454a and the second mounting target plate 454b may havethe same or similar configuration, such that the first mounting target plate 454a and the second mounting target plate 454b are interchangeable on the ceiling-mounting portion 452. Either of the first mounting target plate 454a and the second mounting target plate 454b may be reversable and / or flipped, such that either side may receive one or more fasteners for securing mounting brackets (e.g., mounting brackets 130) as the mounting target plates are used successively for multiple trainings. For example, the first mounting target plate 454a and the second mounting target plate 454b may be removed from the ceiling-mounting portion 452, reversed, and resecured to the ceiling-mounting portion 452 to allow for holes from a previously-secured mounting bracket to be hidden during successive trainings. In addition, either of the first mounting target plate 454a and the second mounting target plate 454b may be replaced with new mounting target plates after one or more trainings.. The first mounting target plate 454a and the second mounting target plate 454b of the ceiling-mounting portion 452 may have the same or similar configuration as the first mounting target plate 458a and / or the second mounting target plate 458b of the wall-mounting portion 456, such that the mounting target plates are interchangeable.

In one example, each of the support members 420a, 420b may be fastened to the table 405 or another horizontal structure using a respective strap 440a, 440b, as described herein.

[0084] The mounting structure 402 of the dual-shade external wall mount installation configuration 40 Id may include the first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406. The first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406 may be oriented differently in the dual-shade external wall mount installation configuration 401d than in the single-shade inside-mount installation configuration 401a, the singleshade inside-mount installation configuration 401b, and / or the single-shade outside-mount installation configuration 401c. FIGs. 41 and 4J show the first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406 each oriented to show a second planar portion 460 of the first mounting structure portion 404 and a second planar portion 462 of the second mounting portion 406. The second planar portion 460 of the first mounting structure portion 404 is opposite the first planar portion 408. The second planar portion 462 of the second mounting structure portion 406 is opposite the first planar portion 410.

[0085] The first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406 may be detachably adjoined and / or fastened at respective sidewalls 403a and 407a. The second mounting structure portion 406 is rotated on a horizontal axis from its position in the single-shade inside-mount installation configuration 401a shown in FIGs. 4A and 4B and / or in the single-shade inside-mount installation configuration 401b shown in FIG. 4C, such that the first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406 are co-planer. The first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406 may be detachably fastened at respective sidewalls 403a and 407a directly and / or via the third mounting structure portion 450 (e.g., as shown in FIG. 4K), which may act as a support structure (e.g., a portion of the base support structure 419) between the first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406. For example, third mounting structure portion 450 may be detachably fastened to the first mounting structure portion 404 and / or the second mounting structure portion 406 and extend beyond respective ends 429a, 429b of the first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406 to the top surface of the table 405 for supporting the first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406. Though shown in a particular configuration, the first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406 positions may be interchangeable within the dual-shade external wall mount installation configuration 40 Id. Additionally, though only a portion of the third mountingstructure portion 450 is shown in FIGs. 41 and 4J, the third mounting structure portion 450 extends along opposing sides of the first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406, as shown in FIG. 4K.

[0086] The first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406 may be fastened to the base support structure 419 independently.

The second mounting structure portion 406 may be detachably fastened to the second support member 420b along the sidewall 407b and / or the end 429b for supporting the second mounting structure portion 406. The first supporting member 420a and the second supporting member 420b may each extend a distance D16 that extends each of the first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406 in the longitudinal direction L, or a distance in between. The first support member 420a and the second support member 420b may be installed a distance D27 apart. The first support member 420a and the second support member 420b may be fastened along respective sidewalls 403b, 407b to allow a covering material of a motorized window treatment to be lowered a greater distance towards surface 405 without interference (e.g., without interference from the first support member 420a and / or the second support member 420b). This may allow for a greater extension of the window treatment for a more realistic control after installation.

[0087] As shown in FIGs. 41 and 4J, the second planar portion 460 of the first mounting structure portion 404 and the second planar portion 462 of the second mounting structure portion 406 may each include mounting targets that identify target locations configured to receive one or more fasteners for securing mounting brackets (e.g., mounting brackets 130, 230) to target locations on the second planar portion 460 of the first mounting structure portion 404 and / or the second planar portion 462 of the second mounting structure portion 406.

The first mounting target plate 464a and the second mounting target plate 464b may be removed from the first mounting structure portion 404, reversed, and resecured to the first mounting structure portion 404 to allow for holes from a previously secured mounting bracket to be hidden during successive trainings. In addition, either of the first mounting target plate 464a and the second mounting target plate 464b may be replaced with new mounting target plates after one or more trainings.. The first mounting target plate 464a and the second mounting target plate 464b of the second planar portion 460 of the first mounting portion 404 may have the same or similar configuration as the first mounting target plate 414a and / or the second mounting target plate 414b of the first planar portion 408 of the first mounting structure portion 404, the first mounting target plate 417a and / or the second mounting target plate 417b of the first planar portion 410 of the second mounting structure portion 406, first mounting target plate 458a and / or the second mounting target plate 458b of the wall mountingportion 456, and / or the first mounting target plate 454a and / or the second mounting target plate 454b of the ceiling mounting portion 452, such that the mounting target plates are interchangeable.

[0088] The second planar portion 462 of the second mounting structure portion 406 may include a first mounting target plate 466a and / or the second mounting target plate 466b on respective ends of the second planar portion 462 of the second mounting structure portion 406, such that respective mounting brackets (e.g., mounting brackets 130, 230) may be fastened to the first mounting target plate 466a and / or the second mounting target plate 466b for a dual-shade external wall mount installation. The first mounting target plate 466a and the second mounting target plate 466b may extend a defined portion of the opposing ends of the second planar portion 462 of the second mounting structure portion 406 that is sufficient to receive one or more fasteners for securing mounting brackets, securing a base (e.g., base 132) of the mounting brackets, and / or identifying a target location for securing the mounting brackets. For example, the first mounting target plate 466a and the second mounting target plate 466b may each extend a distance that is at least a width of a mounting bracket or a distance between openings in the bracket for the fasteners to be installed for mounting the mounting brackets. The first mounting target plate 466a and the second mounting target plate 466b may be removable from the second planar portion 462 of the second mounting structure portion 406. For example, the first mounting target plate 466a and the second mounting target plate 466b may be secured to the second planar portion 462 of the second mounting structure portion 406 using one or more fasteners and may be removed from the second planar portion 462 of the second mounting structure portion 406 by removal of the fasteners.

[0089] Though the second planar portion 460 of the first mounting structure portion 404 and the second planar portion 462 of the second mounting structure portion 406 shown in FIGs. 41 and 4J show the mounting target plates in particular locations, mounting target plates may be placed in other target mounting locations for receiving one or more fasteners for securing mounting brackets (e.g., mounting brackets 130, 230) to other target locations on the second planar portion 460 of the first mounting structure portion 404 and / or the second planar portion 462 of the second mounting structure portion 406 for identifying a target location for training an individual in securing mounting brackets (e.g., mounting brackets 130, 230) to a structure, such as a wall or other structure for proper installation of a motorized window treatment. Once brackets are installed, one or more sample window treatments (e.g., shades) may be attached to the brackets.

[0090] FIG. 4K illustrates a perspective view of an opposite side of the dual-shade external wall mount installation configuration 40 Id shown in FIGs. 41 and 4J. As shown in FIG. 4K, the first mounting structure portion 404 and / or the second mounting structure portion 406 may be detachably fastened to the third mounting structure portion 450, which may act as a support structure at the respective sidewalls 403a and 407a the first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406. The third mounting structure portion 450 may be detachably fastened to the first mounting structure portion 404 and / or the second mounting structure portion 406 on the. For example, the wall mounting portion 456 of the third mounting structure portion 450 may be fastenedat a first end to sidewall 403 a of the first mounting structure portion 404 and / or to the sidewall 407a of the second mounting structure portion 406.

Though FIG. 4K shows the wall mounting portion 456 of the third mounting structure portion 450 being fastened to the mounting structure 402, the ceiling mounting portion 452 may similarly be fastened to the mounting structure 402 with the wall mounting portion 456 extending in a perpendicular direction for support.

[0091] FIG. 4L illustrates a front view of a dual-shade external wall mount corner installation configuration 40 le for mounting brackets of multiple window treatments, such as the mounting brackets 130 shown in FIGs. 1 A-1J, the center mounting bracket 230 shown in FIGs. 2A- 2H, and / or the jamb mounting brackets 330 shown in FIGs. 3A-3L, for example. As shown in FIG. 4L, the dual-shade external wall mount corner installation configuration 40 le may include the same or similar components that are used in the single-shade inside-mount installation configuration 401a, the single-shade inside-mount installation configuration 401b, the single-shade outside-mount installation configuration 401c, and / or the dual-shade external wall mount installation configuration 40 Id. The components may be oriented and / or configured differently in the different configurations to repurpose the same or similar components of the training kit for training individuals to install different types of window treatments and / or perform installation of window treatments in different configurations. For example, an individual may use the components of the training kit to change between different configurations (e.g., the single-shade inside-mount installation configuration 401a, the single-shade inside-mount installation configuration 401b, the single-shade outside-mount installation configuration 401c, the dual-shade outside-mount installation configuration 40 Id, and / or the dual-shade outside-mount corner installation configuration 40 le) for training individuals to install different types of window treatments and / or perform installation of window treatments.

[0092] As shown in FIG. 4L, the dual-shade external wall mount corner installation configuration 40 le may include one or more components of the base support structure 419 and / or the mounting structure 402. The base support structure 419 may include the first support member 420a and the second support member 420b. Though not shown, the base support structure 419 may include another base layer (e.g., container 422) to which the first support member 420a and the second support member 420b may be fastened. The base support structure 419 may be installed on and / or fastened to a horizontal structure, such as to a top surface of a table 405 or a top surface of a floor, such that the base support structure 419 may extend vertically (e.g., in the transverse direction T) from the horizontal structure. Each of the support members 420a, 420b may include one or more structural components (e.g., lower structural component 423a, 423b, front structural component 424a, 424b, rear structural component 425a, 425b, and upper structural component 426a, 426b), which may be similarly configured, as described elsewhere herein. In one example, each of the support members 420a, 420b may be fastened to the table 405 or another horizontal structure using a respective strap 440a, 440b, as described herein.

[0093] The mounting structure 402 of the dual-shade external wall mount corner installation configuration 40 le may include the first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406. The first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406 may be oriented differently in the dual-shade outside-mount corner installation configuration 40 le than in the single-shade inside-mount installation configuration 401a, the singleshade inside-mount installation configuration 401b, the single-shade outside-mount installation configuration 401c, and / or the dual-shade external wall mount installation configuration 40 Id. FIG. 4L shows the first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406 each oriented to show the second planar portion 460 of the first mounting structure portion 404 and the second planar portion 462 of the second mounting structure portion 406 (e.g., similar to the dualshade external wall mount installation configuration 40 Id but with the first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406 oriented perpendicularly to each other).

[0094] The first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406 may be positioned in perpendicular planes in the dual-shade external wall mount corner installation configuration 40 le. For example, respective ends of the first mounting structure portion404 and the second mounting structure portion 406 may be detachably adjoined and / or fastened in perpendicular portions of the third mounting structure portion 450. As shown in FIG. 4L, the sidewall 403 a of the first mounting structure portion 404 may be detachably adjoined and / or fastened to the wall mounting portion 456 of the third mounting structure portion 450. The sidewall 407a of the second mounting structure portion 406 may be detachably adjoined and / or fastened to the ceiling mounting portion 452 of the third mounting structure portion 450.

Other configurations are possible. As described herein, the wall mounting portion 456 and the ceiling mounting portion 452 may be perpendicular portions of the third mounting structure portion 450.

[0095] The fastening of the third mounting structure portion 450 to the first mounting structure portion 404 and to the second mounting structure portion 406 for the dual-shade external wall mount corner installation configuration 40 le may allow for different wall mount installations due to the added surface area provided by the third mounting structure portion 450. Occupants of a space are often trying to get a minimum amount of gap between the covering material of the window treatment and the window for privacy and / or restriction of light within a space. This may be difficult in comers when mounting multiple window treatments due to the restricted space in the former The addition of the third mounting structure portion 450 may add more surface area for a more realistic configuration, such that individuals may be trained on different configurations for mounting multiple window treatments in corners of a space (e.g., staggered mounting configurations for staggering mounting brackets in corners, butt and pass mounting configurations for abutting mounting brackets in comers, and / or standard mounting configurations in comers).

[0096] The third mounting structure portion 450 may act as a support structure (e.g., a portion of the base support structure 419) between the first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406. For example, third mounting structure portion 450 may the fastened to the first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406, and extend beyond respective ends 429a, 429b of the first mounting structure portion 404 and thesecond mounting structure portion 406 to the top surface of the table 405 for supporting the first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406.

[0097] The first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406 may be detachably fastened to the base support structure 419 independently. For example, the first mounting structure portion 404 may be detachably fastened to the first support member 420a along the sidewall 403b and / or the end 429a for supporting the first mounting structure portion 404.The second mounting structure portion 406 may be detachably fastened to the second support member 420b along the sidewall 407b and / or the end 429b for supporting the second mounting structure portion 406.

The first mounting target plate 458a of the wall mounting portion 456 and / or the first mounting target plate 454a of the ceiling mounting portion 452 may allow for mounting brackets to be secured in a location closer to a corner than the second mounting target plate 464b and / or the first mounting target plate 454a. Once brackets are installed, one or more sample window treatments (e.g., shades) may be attached to the brackets.

[0102] FIG. 4M illustrates a perspective view of an opposite side of the dual-shade external wall mount corner installation configuration 401e shown in FIG. 4L. As shown in FIG. 4M, the first mounting structure portion 404 and / or the second mounting structure portion 406 may be detachably fastened to the third mounting structure portion 450 using one or more brackets (e.g., L-shaped brackets). In an example, the first mounting structure portion 404 and / or the second mounting structure portion 406 may be detachably fastened to the third mounting structure portion 450 using one or more fasteners. The sidewall 403 a of the first mounting structure portion 404 may receive one or more fasteners for fastening one or more brackets 474, 476 to the sidewall 403a. The brackets 474, 476 may also be fastened to the wall mounting portion 456 of the third mounting structure portion 450. The sidewall 407a of the second mounting structure portion 406 may receive one ormore fasteners for fastening one or more brackets 470, 472 to the sidewall 407a. The brackets 470, 472 may also be fastened to the ceiling mounting portion 452 of the third mounting structure portion 450.

[0103] FIGs. 4N and 40 illustrate perspective views of a dual-shade external ceiling mount angled installation configuration 40 If. The dual-shade external ceiling mount angled installation configuration 401f may be configured to train individuals on mounting multiple motorized window treatments in an angled ceiling mount installation, such as a bay window or other angle that is not a corner or perpendicular angle.

[0104] The dual-shade external ceiling mount angled installation configuration 40 If may include a first sill plate 484a and a second sill plate 484b. As shown in FIG. 4N, the first sill plate 484a and the second sill plate 484b may be laid on a horizontal surface (e.g., the table 405). The first sill plate 484a may be detachably attached to the second sill plate 484b at respective first ends using one or more fasteners. For example, the first sill plate 484a may be attached to the second sill plate 484b at respective first ends using an angled attachment component 482. The first sill plate 484a, the second sill plate 484b, and the angled attachment component 482 may be configured to define a mounting area to which brackets of the motorized window treatment may be fastened.Though the first sill plate 484a, the second sill plate 484b, and the angled attachment component 482 are shown in FIG. 4N as resting on the table 405, the first sill plate 484a, the second sill plate 484b, and the angled attachment component 482 represent an angled top-portion of a window sill to which mounting brackets (e.g., mounting brackets 130, jamb mounting brackets 330, angled mounting brackets, etc.) may be fastened for securing a window treatment in a window sill.

[0105] A first end of the angled attachment component 482 may be configured to overlap a first end of the first sill plate 484a and to receive one or more fasteners at the first end to fasten the first end of the angled attachment component 482 to the first end of the first sill plate 484a. A second end of the angled attachment component 482 may be configured to overlap a first end of the second sill plate 484a and to receive one or more fasteners at the second end to fasten the second end of the angled attachment component 482 to the first end of the second sill plate 484b. The first end of the angled attachment component 482 may extend, along with the first sill pate 484a, along a first plane or line. The second end of the angled attachment component 482 may extend, along with thesecond sill pate 484b, along a second plane or line to form an angular offset 483 between the first plane or line and the second plane or line. The angular offset 483 may not be parallel or perpendicular. The angled attachment component 482 may be configured as replaceable mounting target plate to receive fasteners for fastening one or more mounting brackets during successive trainings.

[0106] The first sill plate 484a may include a first sidewall 486a at a second end that is opposite the first end that is configured to be fastened to the angled attachment component 482. The second sill plate 484b may include a second sidewall 486b at a second end that is opposite the first end. The first sidewall 486a and the second sidewall 486b may represent mounting locations to which a mounting bracket (e.g., jamb mounting bracket 330) may be installed. The first sidewall 486a and the second sidewall 486b may include and / or be configured as detachable mounting target plates that may be configured to receive fasteners for fastening respective mounting brackets (e.g., jamb mounting bracket 330). The first sill plate 484a may also include a first mounting target plate 485a. The first sidewall 486a and / or the first mounting target plate 485a may identify locations from which measurements may be performed for training individuals to properly measure mounting locations for installing mounting brackets for dual-shade external ceiling mount angled installations. For example, measurements may be performed from a location on the first sidewall 486a and / or the first mounting target plate 485a to a location on the angled attachment component 482 for ensuring a proper mounting location and / or enough space for installation of multiple mounting brackets, or a single angled mounting bracket at the location of the angled attachment component 482. The measurements may also be performed to ensure the proper size of the window treatment is ordered for installation in the space. The first sidewall 486a and / or the first mounting target plate 485a may also, or alternatively, identify mounting locations configured to receive fasteners for installing mounting brackets (e.g., mounting brackets 130, 330) for dual-shade external ceiling mount angled installations. The second sill plate 484b may include a second mounting target plate 485b. The second sidewall 486b and / or the second mounting target plate 485b may identify locations from which measurements may be performed for training individuals to properly measure mounting locations for installing mounting brackets for dual-shade external ceiling mount angled installations. For example, measurements may be performed from a location on the second sidewall 486b and / or the first mounting target plate 485b to a location on the angled attachment component 482 forensuring a proper mounting location and / or enough space for installation of multiple mounting brackets, or a single angled mounting bracket at the location of the angled attachment component 482. The second sidewall 486b and / or the second mounting target plate 485b may also, or alternatively, identify mounting locations configured to receive fasteners for installing mounting brackets (e.g., mounting brackets 130, 330) for dual-shade external ceiling mount angled installations. The angled attachment component 482 may be configured to identify a mounting location and / or receive fasteners for installing multiple mounting brackets (e.g., mounting brackets 130 for multiple widow treatments) and / or a single angled mounting bracket.

[0107] As shown in FIGs. 4N and 40, the first sill plate 484a, the second sill plate 484b, and the angled attachment component 482 may be positioned against and / or coupled to one or more components of the mounting structure 402. The first sill plate 484a and the second sill plate 484b may be detachably secured and / or coupled to one or more components of the mounting structure 402 using one or more fasteners. For example, the first sill plate 484a, the second sill plate 484b, and the angled attachment component 482 may be positioned against and / or coupled to the second planar portion 460 of the first mounting structure portion 404 and the second planar portion 462 of the second mounting structure portion 406. The first sill plate 484a, the second sill plate 484b, and the angled attachment component 482 may be magnetically coupled to the second planar portion 460 of the first mounting structure portion 404 and the second planar portion 462 of the second mounting structure portion 406. For example, the second planar portion 460 of the first mounting structure portion 404 may include a magnetic coupling member 488a (e.g., magnet, magnetic tape, etc.) at or near the end 429a that is configured to magnetically couple to one or more metallic portions of the first sill plate 484a and / or the angled attachment component 482. The second planar portion 462 of the second mounting structure portion 406 may include a magnetic coupling member 488b (e.g., magnet, magnetic tape, etc.) at or near the end 429b that is configured to magnetically couple to one or more metallic portions of the second sill plate 484b and / or the angled attachment component 482. Other configurations are possible.

[0108] As shown in FIGs. 4N-4P, the first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406 may be positioned at the same or similar angular offset 483 as the first sill plate 484a and the second sill plate 484b. To ensure a similar angular offset 483, the firstmounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406 may be secured using one or more fasteners. For example, the first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406 may each be fastened to an angled attachment component 480. The angled attachment component 480 may have the same or similar angular offset 483 as the angled attachment component 482. FIG. 4P illustrates a zoomed-in top view of the angled attachment component 480.

[0109] As shown in FIGs. 4N-4P, a first end of the angled attachment component 480 may be configured to overlap the top wall 403 c of the first mounting structure portion 404 and to receive one or more fasteners at the first end to fasten the first end of the angled attachment component 482 to the top wall 403c of the first mounting structure portion 404. A second end of the angled attachment component 480 may be configured to overlap the bottom wall 407c of the second mounting structure portion 406 and to receive one or more fasteners at the second end to fasten the second end of the angled attachment component to the bottom wall 407c of the second mounting structure portion 406. The first end of the angled attachment component 480 may extend, along with the top wall 403 c of the first mounting structure portion 404, along a first plane or line. The second end of the angled attachment component 480 may extend, along with and the bottom wall 407c of the second mounting structure portion 406, along a second plane or line to form an angular offset 483 between the first plane / line and the second plane / line. The angular offset 483 may not be parallel or perpendicular. One will appreciate that this training configuration shown in FIGS. 4N-4P is shown in an upside down configuration with the first sill plate 484a and the second sill plate 484b representing the ceiling and the first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406 representing a wall / windows. Once brackets are installed, one or more sample window treatments (e.g., shades) may be attached to the brackets.[00110J The components of the training kit described herein may be of a size that may allow the components, or a subset thereof, to be included in a particular container (e.g., container 422), which may meet certain requirements for shipping and / or travel. In one example, the size of the container in which the components of the training kit may be stored for shipping and / or travel may have particular dimensions (e.g., length, width, and depth dimensions). For example, the container may meet particular dimension requirements for checked luggage on an airplane (e.g., a maximumcertified airline check-in size). In one example, the maximum certified airline check-in size may include a length requirement of about 33 inches (e.g., 33.10 inches), a width requirement of about 21 inches (e.g., 21.4 inches), and a depth requirement of about 11 inches (e.g., 11.02 inches). In one example embodiment, the container may be a PELICAN 1615 AIR CASE or another container meeting similar size and / or weight requirements. The container may include different internal and / or external dimensions. The external dimensions of the container may include an external length, width, and depth. In one example, the container may include external dimensions in a range of about 30 to about 33 inches (e.g., 32 to 33 inches, such as 32.58 inches) in length, a range of about 15 to about 21 inches (e.g., 18 to 21 inches, such as 18.40 inches) in width, and a range of about 10 to about 11 inches (e.g., 9.8 to 11 .20 inches, such as 11 .02 inches) in depth. The container may include internal dimensions in a range of about 28 to about 32 inches (e.g., about 29 inches to about 30 inches, such as about 29.59 inches, or about 30 inches) in length, a range of about 13 to about 18 inches (e.g., about 15 inches to about 18 inches, such as about 15.50 inches, or about 16 inches) in width, and a range of about 9 inches to about 10 inches (e.g., about 9 inches to about 9.5 inches, such as about 9.38 inches, or about 8.25 inches) in depth.

[0111] The components of the training kit may also be made of a material to meet certain weight requirements along with the container they are stored in. For example, the components of the training kit and the container in which the components of the training kit may be stored for shipping and / or travel may have a particular weight, which may meet particular weight requirements for checked luggage on an airplane (e.g., a maximum weight limit for checked luggage). The maximum weight limit or checked luggage may be between 50 to 100 pounds.

[0112] FIGs. 5A-5H illustrate a perspective view of a container 422 configured for storing components of the training kit and different configurations of components within the container 422 for meeting certain defined size requirements. The components stored in the container may be used for different configurations of the components for training individuals to install window treatments in a space. For example, the container 422 may include the components of one or more of the single-shade inside-mount installation configuration 401 a (shown in FIGs. 4A and 4B), the singleshade inside-mount installation configuration 401b (shown in FIG. 4C), the single-shade outsidemount installation configuration 401c (shown in FIGs. 4E, 4G, and 4H), the dual-shade outside-mount installation configuration 40 Id (shown in FIGs. 4I-4K), dual-shade outside-mount corner installation configuration 40 le (shown in FIGs. 4L and 4M), and / or dual-shade outside-mount angled installation configuration 401f (shown in FIGs. 4N-4P).

[0113] As shown in FIGs. 5A-5H, the container 422 may have internal dimensions of length L, width W, and depth D that meet the dimensions described herein. FIG. 5A illustrates the container 422 when empty and with a lid open to illustrate the internal dimensions of the container 422. The container 422 may accommodate an arrangement of the components to store the components for the training kit. The components may be accommodated in the container 422 in a particular arrangement such that the components fit in the container 422 when the lid closes.

[0114] The container 422 may have internal surfaces, such as an interior base 501, a first sidewall 503, a second sidewall 505, a third sidewall 504, and a fourth sidewall 506. The base 501 may have a recessed portion 507 and a protruding portion 508. The depth D at the recessed portion may be a first depth that is deeper than a second depth of the protruding portion. The protruding portion 508 may be offset from the recessed portion 507 by a defined distance, such that a retractable luggage handle may be stowed inside the container 422 within the protruding portion 508. In one example, the container 422 may be pre-configured with a supporting layer. The supporting layer may be made of sponge, plastic, or rubber material. The supporting layer may be configured to be on the bottom of the base inner surface 501 of the container body.

[0115] FIG. 5B illustrates the container 422 with the arrangement of the first sill plate 484a, the second sill plate 484b, the angled attachment component 482. As shown in FIG. 5B, the angled attachment component 482 may be arranged proximate to (e.g. abutting) the lower portion 507 of the base 501 of the container 422. For example, one or more portions (e.g., ends, sides) of the angled attachment component 482 may be abut the lower portion 507 of the base 501. Though FIG. 5B shows a single angled attachment component 482, each of the angled attachment components 480, 482 may be arranged proximate to one another in the lower portion 507. For example, each of the angled attachment components 480, 482 may abut one another on one or more ends and one of the angled attachment components 480, 482 may abut the lower portion 507 of the base 501.

[0116] The first sill plate 484a and the second sill plate 484b may be arranged proximate to the angled attachment components 480, 482 and the protruding portion 508 of the base 501. For example, one or more portions of the first sill plate 484a and the second sill plate 484b may abut one or more portions of the angled attachment components 480, 482 and / or one or more portions of the protruding portion 508 of the base 501. One of the first sill plate 484a and the second sill plate 484b may be arranged closer to (e.g., abut) the third sidewall 504 and the other may be arranged closer to (e.g., abut) the fourth sidewall 506. The first sill plate 484a and the second sill plate 484b may be separated by a distance D28. In an example, the distance D28 may be in a range of about 3 to about 10 inches (e.g., about 5 inches to about 6 inches, such as about 5.25 inches) in length. The first sidewall 486a and the second sidewall 486b of the first sill plate 484a and the second sill plate 484b may each be proximate e.g., abut) the second sidewall 505 of the interior of the container 422.

[0117] As shown in FIG. 5C, the ceiling mounting portion 452 of third mounting structure component 450 may be arranged in the container 422 between the first sill plate 484a and the second sill plate 484b (e.g., in the area indicated in FIG. 5B by distance D28). For example, the ceiling mounting portion 452 of third mounting structure component 450 may abut both the first sill plate 484a and the second sill plate 484b. The ceiling mounting portion 452 and the wall mounting portion 456 of the third mounting structure component 450 may be detachable for arrangement in the container 422 and / or for enabling other configurations. One or more portions of the ceiling mounting portion 452 may be arranged proximate to (e.g., abut) one or more portions of one of the angled attachment components 480, 482. As shown in FIG. 5D, the wall mounting portion 456 of the third mounting structure component 450 may be arranged proximate the sill plate 484a. For example, one or more portions of the third mounting structure component 450 may abut one or more portions of the sill plate 484a. However, the wall mounting portion 456 may also be arranged proximate to (e.g., abutting) the sill plate 484b. Also, as the ceiling mounting portion 452 and the wall mounting portion may be of the same or a similar size their arrangement within the container may be interchangeable.

[0118] As shown in FIG. 5E, the first mounting structure portion 404 may be arranged in the container 422 proximate (e.g., abutting) one or more portions of the first sill plate 484a, the second sill plate 484b, the ceiling mounting portion 452, and / or the wall mounting portion 456. In oneexample, the second planar portion 460 of the first mounting structure portion 404 may abut one or more portions of the first sill plate 484a, the second sill plate 484b, the ceiling mounting portion 452, and / or the wall mounting portion 456, such that the first planar portion 408 of the first mounting structure portion 404 comprising at least a portion of the recess 409 may be configured to receive one or more additional components. One or more portions of the sidewall 403a of the first mounting structure portion 404 may be proximate (e.g., abut) the second sidewall 505 of the interior of the container 422. One or more portions of the sidewall 403b of the first mounting structure portion 404 may be proximate (e.g., abut) the first sidewall 503 of the interior of the container 422. One or more portions of the end 429a of the first mounting structure portion 404 may be proximate (e.g., abut) the third sidewall 504 of the interior of the container 422. One or more portions of the top wall 403c of the first mounting structure portion 404 may be proximate (e.g., abut) the fourth sidewall 506 of the interior of the container 422. As the first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406 may have a similar configuration, their arrangement within the container may be interchangeable.

[0119] As shown in FIG. 5E, one or more of the first support member 420a and the second support member 420b may be arranged (e.g., stacked) proximate to the first mounting structure portion 404. For example, one or more portions of the of the first support member 420a and / or the second support member 420b may abut one or more portions of the first planar portion 408 of the first mounting structure portion 404. The recess 409 may be configured to receive the first support member 420a and / or the second support member 420b in a stacked fashion. The first support member 420a and the second support member 420b may be proximate one another within the recess 409. For example, the first support member 420a and the second support member 420b may abut one another on at least one portion of a common side within the recess 409.[00120J The first support member 420a and the second support member 420b may be arranged, such that respective openings 421a, 421b within the first support member 420a and the second support member 420b are configured to receive other components of the training kit. For example, the straps 440a, 440b of each of the respective first support member 420a and the second support member 420b may be received within the respective openings 421a, 421b within the first support member 420a and the second support member 420b. As shown in FIG. 5F, the respectiveopenings 421a, 421b within the first support member 420a and the second support member 420b, as well as the recess 409, may be configured to receive other components of the training kit, such as tools (e.g., toolboxes 515 including tools), and / or other materials that may be used in configuring the components of the training kit in different configurations and / or training individuals in installation (e.g., fasteners, power chords, portions of the window treatment, etc.).

[0121] As shown in FIG. 5G, the second mounting structure portion 406 may be arranged in the container 422 proximate the first mounting structure portion 404 and the components arranged in the recess 409 defined by the respective first planar portions 408, 410 of the first mounting structure and the second mounting structure. For example, the second mounting structure portion 406 may be arranged such that the first planar portion 410 of the second mounting structure portion 406 having the recess (e.g., a portion of the recess 409) is positioned towards the first planar portion 408 of the first mounting structure portion 404. The second planar portion 462 of the second mounting structure portion 406 may be arranged in the opposite direction of the first planar portion 410 (e.g., facing the lid when the lid of the container is closed). The second mounting structure portion 406 may be arranged such that one or more portions of the sidewalls (e.g., sidewalls 407a, 407b, 407c) may abut one or more portions of the sidewalls of the first mounting structure portion 404 (e.g., sidewalls 403a, 403b, top wall 403c). For example, one or more portions of the sidewall 407a of the second mounting structure portion may be proximate (e.g., abut) one or more portions of the sidewall 403 a of the first mounting structure. One or more portions of the sidewall 407b of the second mounting structure portion may be proximate (e.g., abut) one or more portions of the sidewall 403b of the first mounting structure. One or more portions of the bottom wall 407c of the second mounting structure portion may be proximate (e.g., abut) one or more portions of the end 429a of the first mounting structure portion 404. One or more portions of the end 429b of the second mounting structure portion 406 may be proximate (e.g., abut) one or more portions of the top wall 403c of the first mounting structure portion 404. The sidewalls of the first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406 may be offset to allow for the recessed area within each of the first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406 to overlap within the container 422. The lack of a sidewall at the respective ends 429a, 429b of first planar portion 408, 410 of the first mounting structure portion 404 and the secondmounting structure portion 406 may allow for the sidewalls of the first mounting structure portion 404 and the second mounting structure portion 406 to be offset within the container 422.

[0122] As shown in FIG. 5H, there may be additional space within the container between the second planar portion 462 of the of the second mounting structure portion 406 and the lid of the container 422. This additional space may be configured to receive other components of the training kit, such as tools 515 (e.g., toolboxes including tools), and / or other materials that may be used in configuring the components of the training kit in different configurations and / or training individuals in installation (e.g., fasteners, power chords, portions of the window treatment, etc ). One will appreciate that other configurations of the components in container 422 are possible. One will also appreciate that a second container may be used to transport one or more components of one or more window treatments, such as brackets and shades, etc.

[0123] FIG. 6 illustrates a procedure 600 for configuring a mounting structure from components of the window treatment installation training kit (e.g., components of window treatment installation training kit 400 shown in FIGs. 4A-4P) for training installations of different window treatment configurations. The components of the window treatment installation training kit may be installed in different mounting structural configurations (e.g., the single-shade inside-mount installation configuration 401a, single-shade inside-mount installation configuration 401b, the single-shade external outside-mount installation configuration 401c, the dual-shade external wall mount installation configuration 40 Id, the dual-shade external wall mount comer installation configuration 40 le, and / or the dual-shade external ceiling mount angled installation configuration 4011).

[0124] As shown in FIG. 6, the procedure may begin at 602. At 604, an installer may select the components of the mounting structure from the window treatment installation training kit that are implemented in a mounting configuration for training an installer for mounting brackets and / or a window treatment. For example, the components may include the components of a single-shade inside-mount installation configuration (e.g., a single-shade inside-mount installation configuration 401a, 401b), a single-shade external outside-mount installation configuration (e.g., single-shade external outside-mount installation configuration 401c), a dual-shade external wall mount installation configuration (e.g., dual-shade external wall mount installation configuration 40 Id), adual-shade external wall mount corner installation configuration (e.g., dual-shade external wall mount corner installation configuration 40 le), or a dual-shade external ceiling mount angled installation configuration (e.g, dual-shade external ceiling mount angled installation configuration 40 If). At 606, the installer may identify an orientation of each of the components according to the selected mounting configuration. For example, the installer may be instructed to orient each of the components differently relative to one another for different mounting configurations. At 608, the installer may fasten one or more (e.g, at least a subset) of the components of the selected mounting configuration in the identified orientation for training the installer for mounting the brackets or a window treatment to the mounting structure. Different mounting configurations may be configured for installation of different mounting brackets and / or window treatments.

[0125] At 610, the installer may mount the mounting brackets and / or window treatment for training. For example, the components of the mounting structure may include mounting target plates to which the installer may mount the mounting brackets. Additionally, the installer may mount the window treatment to the mounting brackets.

[0126] At 612, the installer may determine whether to update the mounting configuration of the mounting structure for additional training. If the installer does not update the configuration of the mounting structure, the procedure 600 may end. If the installer updates the configuration of the mounting structure at 612, one or more portions of the procedure 600 may be performed for training on the updated mounting configuration. For example, additional and / or alternative components may be selected at 604 and / or the orientation of the components may be updated at 606. As described herein, several components of the window treatment installation training kit may be repurposed for other mounting configurations.
