The present disclosure relates to a roman shade curtain which can improve a curtain atmosphere and the interior of a house by folding or unfolding the curtain in a stepwise manner like a lace. The roman shade curtain can be easily folded or unfolded in a stepwise manner by adopting a combination of rods and rings as a means for corrugating the middle of the curtain, so that the roman shade curtain may have a simple structure, be easily manufactured, and have excellent durability and improve the appearance of the curtain by arranging rods, rings, and the like on the rear surface of the curtain as well as wires for curtain operation.

A battery-powered Roman shade system may comprise first and second brackets for mounting the shade system to a structure, a roller tube rotatably supported by the first and second brackets, and a housing configured to receive, at a first end of the housing, one or more batteries for powering a motor drive unit inside the roller tube. The housing may also be configured to support a lift assistance subsystem at a second end of the housing. The lift assistance subsystem is configured to provide variable lift assistance to the motor drive unit. The shade system may also comprise a battery holder for holding the one or more batteries. For example, the housing may comprise an internal compartment for housing the battery holder and the lift assistance subsystem. In addition, the shade system may comprise a gear assembly configured to mechanically couple the roller tube to the lift assistance subsystem.

A roman shade has a frame, a blind detachably mounted on the frame, a retraction device mounted on the frame, a rolling member, and two guiding members. The rolling member is retractably mounted on the retraction device and has a rolling tape. A bottom end of the rolling tape is free without being connected to the blind. The guiding members are mounted on the retraction device and are located beside two sides of the rolling member. Each guiding member has a guiding tape retractably mounted on the retraction device. A bottom end of the guiding tape surrounds a connecting rod, which is mounted on a body of the blind. The guiding tape is detachably connected to the body of the blind through the connecting rod. It is convenient to detach the body of the blind for cleaning the blind.

A stacking panel covering for an architectural opening includes a headrail and a plurality of suspended from the headrail. The panels form an overlapped stack at one end of the headrail when the stacking panel covering is opened, and cover the architectural opening when the stacking panel covering is closed. The panels are piggybacked on those adjacent thereto, so that they stack, one behind the next, when the stacking panel covering is opened, and so that each pulls the next adjacent thereto as the stacking panel covering is being closed. The panels themselves may be planar, or convexly curved in a horizontal direction and substantially straight in a vertical direction.

An architectural covering and a method of manufacturing the covering is provided. The panel may include multiple strips of material extending lengthwise across a width dimension of the panel. The strips of material may be overlapped and coupled to one another to define cells between adjacent strips of material. The panel may be retracted and extended across an architectural opening, and the strips of material may include a resilient support member to expand the cells as the panel is extended across the architectural opening. The panel may be manufactured by helically winding a continuous, elongate strip of material about a drum in an overlapped manner.
