A window assembly for use in a vehicle including a window frame including a first end and a second end opposite the first end, and an opaque shade movable relative to the window frame, wherein the opaque shade includes a first tab formed at a bottom end of the opaque shade. A transparent shade is movable relative to the window frame, wherein the transparent shade includes a second tab formed at a bottom end of the transparent shade. The first tab and the second tab are configured for selective integration with each other to enable dependent movement of the opaque shade and the transparent shade with each other, and to enable independent movement of the opaque shade and the transparent shade relative to each other.

In one aspect, a roller shade assembly for an architectural opening may generally include a first roller, a second roller and a looped shade extending around the first and second rollers. The looped shade may include at least one outer shade web forming a continuous loop around the rollers. In addition, the roller shade assembly may include an inner shade web configured to be wrapped around the first roller or the second roller such that the inner shade web is positioned within the continuous loop. The inner shade web may be coupled to the outer shade web(s) at a location along an inner perimeter of the continuous loop. Additionally, rotation of the first roller and/or the second roller in an unwinding direction may result in the inner shade web being unwound from the first roller or the second roller along the inner perimeter of the continuous loop.

In one aspect, a covering for an architectural structure may include a shade panel and a bottom rail assembly coupled to the shade panel. The bottom rail assembly may include a rail housing and a roller extending within the rail housing, with the shade panel being looped around the roller such that the bottom rail assembly is vertically supported by the shade panel as the panel is moved between extended and retracted positions. In addition, the relative positioning of the roller within the rail housing may be adjusted, as desired, between the top and bottom ends of the bottom rail housing.

A covering for an architectural feature having generally horizontal vane elements coupled to and located between generally front and rear generally vertical support members, which in preferred embodiments are adjustable to control the amount of light transmitted through the covering. In one embodiment the covering has three dimensional multi-layered, cellular vanes, and in another embodiment, the one or more support members are formed of a dark color, the rear support member(s) may be formed of material that is darker than the front support member(s), or vise versa. In another embodiment, the support members, e.g., sheers, have an openness factor, preferably as low as about sixty-five percent (65%) to as large as about ninety percent (90%). Other embodiments include structure, assemblies and methods for controlling the closure of the covering as well as embodiments of bottom rail assemblies. Also provided is a method of manufacturing the covering.

The present invention relates to a combination roller blind wherein a fine adjustment means is provided behind an upper face of a headrail, the adjustment means causing an end of a blind sheet wrapped around a blind roll and an end opposite thereof to be fine-adjustably wrapped and unwrapped. When [the blind] is installed on a ceiling or a window frame to completely conceal the bottom edge of the window so that a bottom edge of a weight is adjoining a bottom sill of the window frame, and a portion of a light-transmissive section of the blind sheet is not overlapped, the opposite edge wrapped around the blind roll of the blind sheet can be fine-adjusted by rolling so that the light-transmissive section alternates with and is not completely overlapped by a light blocking section, allowing for complete shading to be achieved while completely concealing the bottom edge of the window.

Disclosed is a roman shade assembly that utilizes lift bands rather than lift cords. The shade can be formed of textured materials or woven woods. The shade assembly includes lift bands that attach to a rotatable member(s) and can be extended or retracted within an architectural opening by rotating the member(s). The lift bands can be slidingly connected to the shade at multiple points along the vertical length of the shade. Accordingly, as the wide lift bands are extended or retracted, the attached shade is likewise extended or retracted to cover or uncover an architectural opening.

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of mechanical transmission, in particular to a spring driving system for a cordless soft gauze curtain, including a first spring joint, a transmission intermediate pipe, a main spring, and a retarder, wherein the transmission intermediate pipe is sleeved with the main spring, one end of the transmission intermediate pipe is sleeved with the first spring joint, the first spring joint is connected to the transmission intermediate pipe through a pin, the other end of the transmission intermediate pipe is sleeved with the retarder, and the main spring is connected to the first spring joint and the retarder, respectively. The spring driving system for the cordless soft gauze curtain has the advantages of reducing the safety risk and the length of the spring and being low in fault rate.

The present disclosure relates to multi-layered fabrics and coverings for architectural features and methods for manufacturing the same. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to a three-dimensional multi-layered fabric having a first or front exterior layer, a plurality of intermediate or interior layers, and a second or back exterior layer, which are separable from one another, and their method of manufacture, and panels and/or coverings for architectural features having or comprised of a multi-layered fabric, and methods of making the same. The plurality of interior layers extends between the exterior layers, and the separation and stitching of the two paired intermediate layers from at least one of the front exterior layer and back exterior layer are at different locations (points), respectively, which facilitates the formation of a cell, and controls the size and shape of the cell that may form between the two paired, intermediate layers.

A dual curtain closure system for covering a portal wherein each curtain (18, 38) has a length greater than the length of the lateral margins (12, 13) of the portal (11), a first end (19, 39) fixedly attached across the portal at an upper end thereof, and a second end (23, 43) folded back on itself to define an upwardly opening pocket (25, 45). An elongated rod (34, 35) is supported within each pocket. A first spindle (51) winds and unwinds the first curtain (18) and a second spindle (52) winds and unwinds the second curtain (38). A drive motor (55) is operable to simultaneously rotate the first and second spindles such that the upwardly opening pockets of the curtains are concomitantly raised or lowered. A predetermined distance between the rods is maintained as the pockets are raised or lowered, which facilitates sealing of the curtains to the lateral margins of the portal as the curtains are lowered.

A covering for an architectural feature having generally horizontal vane elements coupled to and located between generally front and rear generally vertical support members, which in preferred embodiments are adjustable to control the amount of light transmitted through the covering. In one embodiment the covering has three dimensional multi-layered, cellular vanes, and in another embodiment, the one or more support members are formed of a dark color, the rear support member(s) may be formed of material that is darker than the front support member(s), or vise versa. In another embodiment, the support members, e.g., sheers, have an openness factor, preferably as low as about sixty-five percent (65%) to as large as about ninety percent (90%). Other embodiments include structure, assemblies and methods for controlling the closure of the covering as well as embodiments of bottom rail assemblies. Also provided is a method of manufacturing the covering.
