An apparatus for installing a window covering is disclosed. A rotational cam member is provided for extending a first piston on one side of a headrail and compressing a second piston on the opposite side of the headrail between a window casing. A lever arm is provided for rotating the rotational cam. Easy installation of a window covering headrail may be achieved as one arm is used to hold the headrail while the other hand is able to actuated the lever arm. Mounting brackets are provided for easy window covering removal after installation.

A curved curtain rod is provided with adjustable rods and an adjustable end cap assembly. The adjustable end cap assembly includes a user accessible drive element that can be rotated to operate the adjustable end cap assembly.

The present application provides a full light-shading curtain rod including a curtain hanging rod, an end of the curtain hanging rod is provided with a corner structure, and the corner structure is configured for guiding a curtain hung on the curtain hanging rod to turn. It further includes a screen curtain hanging rod, and the screen curtain hanging rod is mounted at a side of the curtain hanging rod facing a wall foundation. An end of the corner structure is detachably connected with a mounting disc, and the corner structure and the mounting disc form a mounting assembly for mounting the curtain hanging rod on the wall foundation. An end of the screen curtain hanging rod is provided with a connecting bracket, and the connecting bracket is connected with the mounting assembly.

There is provided a lock mechanism for an adjustable rod. The lock mechanism provides a manually locking state and an automatic locking state. The automatic locking state provides a more secure locking engagement than the manual locking state. There is also provided improved end cap systems that minimize the number of components.

There is provided a dual mount end cap system for mounting a rod. The dual mount end cap system includes both a threaded system and a fastener system. This enables end caps of the system to be pre-mounted using a fastener and also adjusted using the threaded system. The fastener can extend through the dual mount end cap system. Alternatively, the threaded system can be used without the fastener system. There also is provided a stop system to prevent a locking system for an adjustable rod system to prevent the locking system from becoming stuck.
