WINDOW BLIND
A window blind has a headrail, a bottom rail, and multiple slats provided below the headrail. In the headrail, an adjusting shaft and an auxiliary adjusting module are provided and connected. A ladder string is connected to the adjusting shaft, whereby the adjusting shaft adjusts a shape of the ladder string to tilt the slats and the bottom rail. A first cord and a second cord extend out of the headrail and are connected to opposite sides of the bottom rail. When the adjusting shaft drives the slats to tilt in a direction, the auxiliary adjusting module releases the first cord out of the headrail and retracts the second cord into the headrail. When the slats are tilted in an opposite direction, the auxiliary adjusting module retracts the first cord into the headrail and releases the second cord out of the headrail.
Systems and methods for control configuration for installed architectural structural coverings
Systems and methods for configuring a user device to remotely control a plurality of architectural structural coverings are described. A user device receives a plurality of broadcast signals from a plurality of architectural structural coverings. Each individual broadcast signal is associated with an individual architectural structural covering and relays position information for the individual architectural structural covering. Each broadcast signal is also associated with an individual entry in a list of entries displayed on a user interface of the user device. Each entry comprises a representation of an architectural structural covering having a displayed position that matches position information from the broadcast signal and a position control for controlling a physical position of the associated architectural structural covering. When a user adjusts the position via the position control, an adjusted position instruction is sent to the associated architectural structural covering. The displayed position of the representation on the UI is changed to mirror a change in the physical position of the architectural structural covering as the user device observes broadcast position data from the architectural structural covering.
Automated tilt wand controller for window blinds
An automated tilt wand controller could precisely control the tilt of a plurality of slats of installed window blinds using an actuator to turn a tilt wand. A remote or mobile device could be used to control the automated tilt wand controller.

Damping device of window covering
A damping device of a window covering is provided, including a headrail, a covering material, and a driving device, wherein the driving device is located in the headrail to raise and extend the covering material. The damping device is provided in the headrail, and includes a metal member and a magnetic member, wherein at least a magnetic pole of the magnetic member faces the metal member. The metal member is located within a magnetic field of the magnetic member. Either one or both the metal member and the magnetic member is drivable by the driving device to make the metal member and the magnetic member move relative to each other. Whereby, the damping device is able to provide a desired damping effect at different temperature or after a long period use, such that the rotation of the metal member and the movement of the covering material are slowed down.

Motorized window treatment
A motorized window treatment for controlling the amount of daylight entering a space through a window includes a covering material, a drive shaft, and a motor coupled to the drive shaft for raising and lowering the covering material. The window treatment also includes a spring assist unit for assisting the motor by providing a torque that equals the torque provided by the weight on the cords that lift the covering material at a position midway between fully-open and fully-closed positions to minimize motor usage and conserve battery life. The window treatment may comprise a photosensor for measuring the amount of daylight outside the window and temperature sensors for measuring the temperatures inside and outside of the window. The position of the covering material may be automatically controlled in response to the photosensor and the temperature sensors, or in response to an infrared or radio-frequency remote control.

CORD WINDING ASSEMBLY WITH TILT MEMBERS AND WINDOW BLIND USING THE CORD WINDING ASSEMBLY
A window blind includes a headrail, a controller, a rotating rod, a pivoting member, a blind body, a bottom rail, two lift cord sets, two tilt cord sets and two cord winding assemblies. With the technical feature that the rotating rod and the tilt members of the cord winding assemblies are arranged in the same axial direction in sequence, the effect of almost synchronous rotation can be achieved, thereby optimizing the complexity of the overall blind window components or related parts.
