A number of mounting systems are provided for mounting a sheet element with respect to a rail element. In one example, the mounting system includes an elongate mounting tape having a first longitudinal edge portion and a second longitudinal edge portion spaced by a width spacing from the first longitudinal edge portion. The first longitudinal edge portion is configured for being affixed to the sheet element. The second longitudinal edge portion includes a plurality of rail-engaging elements in spaced relationship along the second longitudinal edge portion, the rail-engaging elements being configured for engaging with the rail element and for enabling selective longitudinal movement between the mounting tape and the rail element. The mounting tape is elastically deformable in a width direction, at least when the mounting tape is affixed to the flexible sheet.

The system includes a finial that is configured to be removed from a guide cable, while the guide cable is still connected on both ends. The hembar includes a finial on each end, wherein the first finial includes an external channel at an angle and the second finial includes an external channel with an opposite angle. The hembar is rotated in order to receive the guide cable into the external channel, then reverse rotated so the guide cable translates in an internal channel. The system eliminates or reduces the need for a guide cable to be threaded through an eyelet on the finial of the hembar. The system eliminates or reduces the need to detach a cable, prior to uninstalling the shade system.

A guide device having, a guide rail and a runner, which engages at least in part in the guide rail and is guided in a linearly movable manner in the guide rail via a recirculating ball bearing. The balls associated with the recirculating ball bearing are arranged in at least one ball row and guided in at least one ball raceway. The balls associated with a ball row are each guided in a ball raceway composed of two partial ball raceways. The first partial ball raceway is formed in the runner and extends along a runner longitudinal axis. The second ball raceway is formed by a guide groove, formed on the runner and extends along the runner longitudinal axis, and a guide rail guide groove, opposite the runner guide groove and formed on the guide rail.

The disclosure relates to a guide device for a sliding screen system. The guide device includes a housing, a height adjustment element arranged to be set in different positions in a height direction, and a manually operable pivot connected to the housing for pivoting around a pivot axis and connected to the height adjust-ment element for moving the height adjustment element when pivoted. The housing includes a first toothed structure extending in a circular path around the pivot axis. The manually operable pivot includes a second toothed structure extending in a circular path around the pivot axis. The first toothed structure and the second toothed structure engage each other. The housing includes at least one finger that is radially flexible relative the pivot axis and that includes a section of the first toothed structure.
