MOTOR ASSEMBLY FOR AN ARCHITECTURAL COVERING
An architectural covering including a motor assembly is provided. The covering may include a head rail, an end cap enclosing an end of the head rail, a roller tube rotatably supported within the head rail at least partially by the end cap, and a motor assembly including a housing in splined engagement with the end cap to non-rotatably secure the motor assembly to the end cap. The motor assembly may be received at least partially within the roller tube and may be in driving engagement with the roller tube. A covering material may be attached to the roller tube such that rotation of the roller tube extends or retracts the covering material.
WINDOW SHADE MOUNTING ASSEMBLY
A window shade mounting system comprising: a mounting bracket having a first slot for receiving a portion of a hanger band; a roller shade bracket attached to the hanger band; a roller window shade assembly attached to the roller shade bracket; a defined cavity defined by the support band, hanger band or both; and, wherein the support band and the hanger band have the same cross section.

UNDER STRUCTURE OF BLIND APPARATUS AND BLIND APPARATUS HAVING THE SAME
The present invention provides an under-structure of a blind apparatus.
An under-structure of a blind apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a first bar that holds the lower end of a screen; a plug that is coupled to an end of the first bar and has a first through-hole at the center; a second bar that receives the first bar and has a slit through which the screen comes out; a cover that is fixed to an end of the second bar and has a second through-hole communicating with the first through-hole; and a wrench plug that is coupled to the outside of the cover and is fitted in the first through-hole through the second through-hole to transmit torque.
RETRACTABLE PRIVACY SYSTEM AND METHOD
A retractable privacy system for roll-up walls and doors is disclosed. In one embodiment, such a retractable privacy system includes one or more drums rotated by one or more motors to draw in or let out one or more flexible sheets from the drum. Multiple motors and drums may work in synchronization to achieve a desired result. In certain embodiments, various inputs are used to automatically open or close roll-up walls and doors. In other embodiments, the retractable privacy system interfaces with a thermostat or security system to achieve a desired result.

Method for operating a motorized shade
An architectural covering is provided. The architectural covering includes: shade material; the shade material operatively connected to a motor unit such that movement of the motor unit causes movement of the shade material; the motor unit comprising a DC motor and a shaft connected to the DC motor; a power supply unit electrically connected to the motor unit; a controller unit electrically connected to the motor unit, the controller unit having a microprocessor; and a rotation detector configured to detect rotation of the motor unit and upon detection of rotation of the motor unit transmit a signal to the microprocessor, wherein the microprocessor of the controller unit is configured to power an encoder unit in response to determination of manual movement of the shade material. A motor and control unit for an architectural covering may be provided.
