In one aspect, a roller shade includes a roller and a shade panel configured to be wound around and unwound from the roller to retract and extend the shade panel, respectively. The roller shade further includes a shade adapter coupled between the roller and the shade panel. The shade adapter includes a first adapter portion configured to be coupled to the roller, a second adapter portion configured to be coupled to the shade panel, and a connector panel portion extending between the first and second adapter portions. The second adapter portion allows the shade panel to be quickly and easily removed from and installed relative to the shade adapter and, thus, the roller.

A shading device including a first driving shaft that is rotatably supported within a headbox and may drive a first moving member and a second driving shaft that is rotatably supported within the headbox and may drive a second moving member, the shading device includes a first pulley that drives the first driving shaft, and a second pulley that is disposed at a position different from the first pulley in a longitudinal direction of the headbox and drives the second driving shaft.

A motorized window treatment has a headrail, a first operable rail and a second operable rail, a driving device, a distance detection circuit, a receiving circuit and a motor control circuit. The motor control circuit is coupled with the receiving circuit and the distance detection circuit for configuring the driving device to move the first operable rail and the second operable rail according to the signals received by the receiving circuit. When the receiving circuit receives a command signal to move the second operable rail towards a target position and the first operable rail locates between the second operable rail and the target position, the motor control circuit configures the driving device to move the second operable rail and the first operable rail collectively towards the target position.

A transom blind accessory for a window pocket for receiving one or more blind includes a covering member between upper and lower blinds.

A shade system including a middle rail including a roller blind in addition to top and bottom rails wherein a fabric is intermediate the top and middle rails.

We disclose a roller shade which may move the roller fabric to position either a light reflecting section or a heat absorbing section of the roller fabric toward a window. The two sections may be on opposite sides of a sheet of roller fabric which is connected to the roller tube at one end. The roller shade may wind the roller fabric around the roller tube then reverse the side of the roller fabric which faces the window. Alternatively, the roller fabric may be a continuous loop of fabric that includes a light reflecting section and connected to a heat absorbing section. The roller shade may move the continuous loop of fabric to position either section toward the window. The roller shade may include sensors, a motor, and a controller. The controller may be programmed to reverse the roller fabric in response to a sensor measurement.

A controller assembly includes a housing, first and second tube units, and first and second runners. Each of the first and second runners slides on a respective one of the first and second tube units when the respective one of the first and second tube units is driven to rotate. In response to sliding of the first runner to bring the first runner into abutment with the second runner, the first runner is prevented from sliding over the second runner, whilst impeding rotation of the first tube unit. In response to sliding of the second runner to bring the second runner into abutment with the first runner, the second runner is prevented from sliding over the first runner, whilst impeding rotation of the second tube unit.

The invention relates to a screen, comprising a first control unit (610) comprising a first drive shaft (612) and at least one first cord spool (630) rotatable with the first drive shaft for winding and unwinding a first lift cord (634) extending between a head rail and a middle rail; a second control unit (620) comprising a second drive shaft (622), and at least one second cord spool (632) rotatable with the second drive shaft for winding and unwinding a second lift cord (636) extending between the head rail and the bottom rail; and a shaft rotation limiting system (100) comprising a threaded shaft arranged on and rotatable in unison with one of the first and the second drive shafts, a coupling element threaded on said threaded shaft, wherein the coupling element is associated with and rotatable in unison with the other drive shaft.

A covering for an architectural-structure covering is disclosed. The covering is formed from a plurality of assembled strips of fabric material joined together. Each assembled strip of fabric material may include a fabric material including inner and outer surfaces, and top and bottom ends. A first slat may be coupled to the inner surface of the fabric material adjacent the top end thereof, the first slat having a first contact surface. A second slat may be coupled to the outer surface of the fabric material adjacent the bottom end thereof, the second slat having a second contact surface. The first contact surface of the first slat of a first assembled strip is preferably nested with the second contact surface of the second slat of an adjoining second assembled strip. The second contact surface of the second slat may be partially covered by the piece of fabric material.

A transom blind accessory for a window pocket for receiving one or more blind includes a covering member between upper and lower blinds.
