MOTORIZED WINDOW TREATMENT
20230036910 · 2023-02-02 · ·

A motorized window treatment system may include a roller tube, a flexible material, a motor drive unit, and mounting brackets. The mounting brackets may include a stationary portion configured to be attached to a structure surrounding a window. The mounting brackets may include a movable portion configured to receive an end portion of a housing of a motor drive unit. The movable portion may be configured to operate the motorized window treatment between the operating position and the extended position in a circular-shaped path. A portion of the motor drive unit may be accessible when the motorized window treatment is in the extended position. The mounting brackets may include a stopping mechanism that is configured to prevent the motorized window treatment from extending beyond the extended position.

Motor assemblies for architectural coverings

Example motor assemblies for architectural coverings are described herein. An example architectural covering assembly includes an architectural covering movable between an upper limit position, a lower limit position, and a transition limit position between the upper limit position and the lower limit position. The example architectural covering assembly also includes a motor, a consumer touchpoint, and an architectural covering controller. In response to detecting a first gesture at the consumer touchpoint, the architectural covering controller is to activate the motor to move the architectural covering to the transition limit position and stop, and in response to detecting a second gesture at the consumer touchpoint, different from the first gesture, the architectural covering controller is to activate the motor to move the architectural covering through the transition limit position and to the upper limit position or the lower limit position.

Architectural covering and method of manufacturing

An architectural covering and a method of manufacturing the covering is provided. The panel may include multiple strips of material extending lengthwise across a width dimension of the panel. The strips of material may be overlapped and coupled to one another to define cells between adjacent strips of material. The panel may be retracted and extended across an architectural opening, and the strips of material may include a resilient support member to expand the cells as the panel is extended across the architectural opening. The panel may be manufactured by helically winding a continuous, elongate strip of material about a drum in an overlapped manner.

Rolling shutter slat

A slat for a rolling shutter is provided that is formed as a single walled, continuous bent sheet. The slat includes a body having a hook-shaped engaging track at a first end, and a receiving track at the second end comprising a guard member and a hook-shaped lip member that form a pocket for receiving the engaging track of another slat. The guard member includes a portion of the sheet that is bent over on itself. The lip member extends from the guard member, and is spaced apart from the guard member to define an aperture that is sized and shaped to receive the engaging track of the other slat.

20220325575 · 2022-10-13 ·

A foldable sheer shade includes a supporting seat, a controlling module, a shade, and a receiving device. The controlling module is disposed to the supporting seat and includes a coiling rod. The shade has an end connected to the coiling rod. The shade includes a plurality of hollow portions arranged in an axial direction. The receiving device includes a box and a limiting member coupled to the box. The limiting member extends through one of the plurality of hollow portions of the shade. A portion of the shade below the limiting member is coiled to be received in a receiving space of the box and is positioned by the limiting member.

DEVICE FOR ROLLING AND UNROLLING ROLL-UP BLINDS AND SIMILAR

A device for winding and unwinding Alicantina shutters (12) and the like, which are raised by being wound onto themselves by means of at least a first cord (3) connected to a first elastic element (10) which is attached at one end to the head (1) of the shutter and at the other end to the end of the cord (3) which allows the unwound segment of the shutter (12) to be kept in a stretched position. The device includes at least a second cord (3′) related to a second elastic element or spring (10′) located at another point of the width of the shutter such that the elastic elements (10, 10′) are retracted onto themselves during the process of unwinding the shutter due to the instantaneous tension difference supported by each of the elastic elements (10, 10′). The shutter (12) can be motorized.
