A magnetic track assembly including an elongate channel having an open side, an end wall, and two parallel side walls; a first magnet disposed within the elongate channel near an interior side of the end wall; a compartment defined within the elongate channel spaced from the first magnet; and a screen receiver disposed within the compartment and including a second magnet arranged facing the first magnet. In the magnetic track assembly, the first and second magnets are of opposite polarity and the screen receiver is loosely disposed within the compartment such that a magnetic bond is intact between the first and second magnets when the first and second magnets are close together and the magnetic bond is broken when the first and second magnets are pulled apart.

A winding device for the covering of building openings, comprising a sheetlike, flexible cover element for at least partial covering of the at least one building opening and a winding element driven by a drive unit for adjusting a cover surface of the covering, wherein the cover element can be wound and unwound with the winding element. According to the invention, in addition to a first cover element, there is provided a second cover element), which can be arranged overlapping with the first cover element in the covering state, wherein the cover elements can be wound and unwound with a winding element.

A winding device for a windable screen of a closure or sun-protection home-automation installation, includes: a winding tube movable around a rotation axis; a hollow sleeve positioned at one of the two ends and inside the winding tube; a tubular electromechanical actuator inserted inside the hollow sleeve; and two supports, each support being positioned across from one of two ends of the winding tube. The tubular electromechanical actuator includes: a case, and a closing off element positioned at one end of the case. The closing off element has a front face positioned in a plane parallel to a wall of one of the two supports, and includes first fastening elements cooperating with second fastening elements of the support. The hollow sleeve includes a first stop cooperating with a stop of the closing off element, and a second stop cooperating with the end of the winding where the sleeve is inserted.

The invention relates to a mounting system for an architectural covering comprising a roller and a bearing for rotatably mounting the roller to a holding member. The bearing comprises a length variation member which is biased to be in a first state yielding a bearing length which allows the roller to be held by the holding member, and which can be manipulated into a second state, in which the bearing length is reduced such that the roller is removable from the holding member. The length variation member comprises at least one sloped portion that extends along at least part of its outer circumference and in the first state extends largely or completely outside the roller. The sloped portion is dimensioned such that the length variation member can be urged to the second state by applying a force on the sloped portion in a single direction.

In an embodiment, a retractable awning comprises a slotted track; a webbing disposed in the slotted track; a cover attached to the webbing and disposed on the slotted track; a first roller disposed at a first end of the slotted track and connected to a first end of the webbing; a second roller disposed at a second opposite end of the slotted track and connected to a second end of the webbing; and a bracket, the bracket disposed over the first roller and comprising a guide roller which contacts the cover when the retractable awing is in a deployed position between the first roller and the first end of the slotted track.

A magnetic track assembly including an elongate channel having an open side, an end wall, and two parallel side walls; a first magnet disposed within the elongate channel near an interior side of the end wall; a compartment defined within the elongate channel spaced from the first magnet; and a screen receiver disposed within the compartment and including a second magnet arranged facing the first magnet. In the magnetic track assembly, the first and second magnets are of opposite polarity and the screen receiver is loosely disposed within the compartment such that a magnetic bond is intact between the first and second magnets when the first and second magnets are close together and the magnetic bond is broken when the first and second magnets are pulled apart.

A mounting system for a roller blind includes a tension bar for mounting under pressure between first and second sides of a windows frame. The tension bar may provide both long and short adjustment of mounting system width. The tension bar extends through a hollow roller tube of the roller blind, and through a clutch mechanism of the roller blind, and is coupled to end mounting fixtures. The length of the tension bar may be adjusted as a long adjustment of mounting width. Various mechanisms may be associated with one or both of the end mounting fixtures for short adjustment of mounting width, such as a latch mechanism, wedge mechanism, spring-loaded mechanism, or turn-buckle system. End pads at the ends of the blind provide friction and absorb excess pressure. The mounting mechanism serves as a universal window blind bracket and support rod, which requires no screws or nails to install.

A magnetic track assembly including an elongate channel having an open side, an end wall, and two parallel side walls; a first magnet disposed within the elongate channel near an interior side of the end wall; a compartment defined within the elongate channel spaced from the first magnet; and a screen receiver disposed within the compartment and including a second magnet arranged facing the first magnet. In the magnetic track assembly, the first and second magnets are of opposite polarity and the screen receiver is loosely disposed within the compartment such that a magnetic bond is intact between the first and second magnets when the first and second magnets are close together and the magnetic bond is broken when the first and second magnets are pulled apart.

The present invention provides a reel pipe motor, comprising a casing; a motor and a speed reduction assembly disposed within the casing; an L-shape motor end head having a tubular part and a box part which could be connected with the casing, a switch box disposed on the outer surface of the box part, in which a switch control panel and a bead switch are located; and a power supply plug and a hollow rod. The bead switch is connected with the hollow rod. The bead switch could be operated by pulling the hollow rod. A first end of the power supply plug is electrically connected with the switch control panel, and a second end thereof extends into the hollow rod and is electrically connected with an external power supply. This invention further discloses a rolling curtain positioning control system comprising the said reel pipe motor.
