An improved bottom rail for an architectural-structure covering is disclosed. The bottom rail includes one or more channels. In use, a first channel may receive a bottom edge of the covering while a weight channel receives a weighted, longitudinal rod therein. Additionally, and/or alternatively, the bottom rail may include pucks for retaining the weighted, longitudinal rod within the weight channel. In use, the pucks are rotatable from a first unlocked position to a second locked position. In the first position, the pucks are slidably positionable along an outer surface of the longitudinal rod. In the second position, the pucks contact the longitudinal rod to thereby exert an additional downward force onto the longitudinal rod so that the longitudinal rod is retained within the weight channel.

The present disclosure includes a retrofit magnet strip kit and method for mating the vertical edges of two adjacent drapes (110, 120), the kit comprising a first magnet strip (200) and a second magnet strip (200). Each magnet strip (200) comprises a non-magnetic substrate (201) with two major surfaces, wherein the thickness of the substrate (201) is less than 1 cm, the width of the substrate (201) is between 1 cm and 8 cm and the length of the substrate (201) is greater than 20 centimeters (cm), and at least two magnets (210, 220) attached to a first major surface of the substrate (201). The two magnets (210, 220) are spaced apart from each other, and a first edge of the first magnet is at least 5 cm from the nearest edge of the second magnet. The first magnet (210) comprises magnetic material with maximum energy 3 product least 200 kj/m. When the first and second magnet strips are inserted into the vertical hems of two adjacent drapes (110, 120), the magnet strips (210, 220) are attracted to each other and cause the vertical edges of the two adjacent drapes (110, 120) to mate with each other such that the first magnet on the first magnet strip and the first magnet on the second strip mate with each other, and the second magnet on the first magnet strip and the second magnet on the second magnet strip mate with each other.

A shade structure includes a shading member (1) having a first section (13), a second section (14) and a plurality of successive sections (15), a first figure face (2) mounted on the first section, a second figure face (3) mounted on the second section and presenting a determined figure related to that of the first figure face, a plurality of successive figure faces (4) mounted on the successive sections and presenting a determined figure related to that of the first figure face and the second figure face, and a plurality of connecting units (5) arranged between the first section, the successive sections and the second section and connected mutually to overlap and fold the shading member which has different folded states.

A magnetic shower curtain system that maintains a shower curtain in place along opposing shower enclosure walls. The magnetic shower curtain system includes a shower rod assembly, a mounting assembly, and a shower curtain assembly. The shower curtain assembly includes a plurality of shower rings. The shower rings are placed on a shower rod, connected to a shower curtain, and slid along the shower rod. The shower rings include a first outer shower ring and a second outer shower ring. One of: (1) the first outer shower ring and the second outer shower ring, and (2) a first outer end and a second outer end of the shower rod or the mounting assembly, includes a magnet. The other of: (1) the first outer shower ring and the second outer shower ring, and (2) the first outer end and the second outer end of the shower rod or the mounting assembly, includes a magnet or a magnetically attractable material. The shower curtain is maintained in place along the opposing shower enclosure walls by attraction of the magnet to the other magnet or magnetically attractable material.

A curtain closure device for securing a pair of curtains in a closed and secure position. The curtain closure device includes a clip having a first side and a second side, wherein the first side can secure to a first curtain and the second side can simultaneously secure to a second curtain. Each side of the clip includes a pressure member having a pair of slots substantially parallel to one another and an opening disposed along a respective side of the clip to receive an edge of the respective curtain therein. The pressure members can apply a force towards a cross member of the clip to retain the curtains in a secured position. In some embodiments, the clip is transparent to prevent obstruction of the design of the curtain.
