A hanging material (i.e. privacy curtain) support system may include a coupling device, a ceiling mount assembly, and hanging material support tubing. The coupling device may include a removable guide section. The removable guide section may facilitate proper alignment of the coupling device to the hanging material support tubing. If the coupling device is not properly aligned and fixed with the support tubing, the support tubing may not be provided in a level state for allowing support attachment members (i.e.—C-shaped hooks) to flow/move freely across the support tubing. When the support tubing is not secured/fixed in a level state, the attachment members may not move/slide properly across the support tubing which would degrade the operation of the entire system (i.e.—moving a hanging material—i.e. privacy curtain—from open to closed states and vice-versa).

The present invention is unique, novel and proprietary flat panel system, known as the SM Acoustical Flat & S Panel System (“AFSP System”) which provides a series of parts, hardware and fabrics to be used as either a room divider system or as a window treatment system, to achieve the specific results of the consumer. The present invention, and system as a whole, contains the following core categorical pieces of hardware, all of which are customizable to the specific needs and desires of the consumer: (a) a track mounting system, of which profile can be felt or wood, or any shape desired, which can be surface mounted (wall or ceiling), recessed, drop ceiling suspended, free-hanging (tension), or mounted by way of suspension (suspension rods); (b) a customizable track designed to fit with specialty gliders; (c) a customizable carrier further designed to fit with those specialty gliders; (d) fully customizable panels, made up of either solid material or soft fabric, fastened together using double sided sticking tape, self-fastening material or screen clamps, with such solid material or soft fabrics ranging from 12 mm thick to 1 mm thick; (e) a fully customizable system that is held into place by tension, floor mounted, gravity weighted or free-standing product, and (f) that such fully customizable system has a preferred stackable pattern which not only ensures a clean finished look, but also safely secures the product in a collapsed position.

The objectives of this invention is to provide the industry with a new and novel system and product, to be used as a window treatment or room divider, of which looks to reconcile the aesthetic and utility properties for the customer, but also the ease of installation and functionality for the technician. In the end, the present invention, the AFSP System, as used in the area of window treatments or room dividers, is expected to result in reduction in costs, faster and easier installs, faster repairs, stronger connections, greater fluidity and functionality of the product, reduced claims of damage, and greater durability going forward.

Disclosed is a disposable curtain system, a hook attachment and a quick-release system therefor and method. The disposable curtain system is for use in health care facilities to maintain a clean environment. The disposable curtain system includes: a hook attachment; an extension, operatively attached to the hook attachment; and a quick-release, operatively attached to the extension and adapted to be attached to a curtain. The quick-release includes; an extension attachment; and a curtain attachment, wherein at least one of the curtain attachment and the extension attachment has a neck and a head and the other of the curtain attachment and the extension attachment has at least one of a cradle or receiver for receiving the head.

A window curtain may include a top track, at least a sliding unit, and a plurality of shades, and the top track has at least two track rods sleeved together, which reduces the packaging and shipping costs. Each of the track rods is hollow to form a channel therein, and the channel comprises two vertical guide tracks. The sliding unit comprises a plurality of first sliding bases formed in parallel, and each of the first sliding bases other than the innermost one is connected to a second sliding base. Each of the second sliding bases comprises a pulley support, and each of the pulley supports has at least a pulley set installed thereon. The pulley sets are adapted to slide along the track rods through the guide tracks which have no height difference so as to improve the smoothness of sliding movement of the pulley sets.

A valance system for a window covering that can be folded and placed within the same shipping box as a wall bracket, top bracket and track sections. The valance extends a length between opposing ends and includes a clip feature that extends out from its rearward side. The clip feature is generally C-shaped or U-shaped when viewed from the side and includes a plurality of friction members in its exterior surface. The valance is covered with a covering material. An end cap having a hinge area that facilitates bending of the end cap is connected to the ends of the valance by connection of a tongue of the end cap to a slot of the valance. The clip feature is sized and shaped to frictionally fit within and be installed within a socket of a top bracket without any tools.
