A valance kit and mounting assembly secure a valance adjacent a window frame. A mounting block is securable in a clamp ring cavity of the window frame and includes a snap connector on the frame side thereof and a valance groove in each of the top and bottom sides thereof. The valance grooves extend in a width direction across the mounting block and have a depth dimension parallel with a plane of the window opening. A valance assembly includes a plurality of shrouds that together define the valance. Each of the shrouds is provided with a pair of snap ridges disposed facing each other and spaced substantially corresponding to a space between the top and bottom sides of the mounting block. The snap ridges are sized and positioned to engage the valance grooves in a snap fit. The universal mounting block is suitable for mounting various types of window treatments.

An assembly of cellular window blinds features a manufacturing process that accounts for the different physical properties of materials, helps the rate of shrinkage while cooling, and helps regulate the various heat and pressure for each material in the manufacturing process. The process describes a joining method using two strips of material to form a single-cell product or double-cell product. The assembly involves joining to strips of material to one another via application of an adhesive and curing the adhesive via a curing station. The strips of material are folded, pressed, and cooled prior to being fed into the assembly, thereby reducing or eliminating bowing or otherwise misshaping.

A rope fixing apparatus for use in pleated or honeycomb curtain systems for all kinds of stable, movable or folding windows, doors and glass balconies.

A mounting bracket lock may be configured to secure the mounting bracket of a window treatment housing to a rail of the housing. The mounting bracket lock may be slidably attachable to the rail and, when in a locked position, may prevent the mounting bracket from detaching from the rail. The mounting bracket lock may include a body that is mountable to the rail. The body may include a first portion that slidably attaches to the rail, and a second portion that receives a portion of the rail and a portion of the mounting bracket, thereby securing the mounting bracket in a locked position relative to the rail. The body of the mounting bracket lock may define one or more projections that extend therefrom, and that engage in a friction fit between corresponding surfaces of the mounting bracket when the mounting bracket lock is in the locked position.

A motorized window treatment may include a covering material, a motor drive unit, a headrail, a cover, and one or more mounting brackets. The cover may be configured to enclose at least an upper portion and a rear portion of the headrail. The mounting brackets may be configured to secure the motorized window treatment to a structure. The mounting brackets may include a biasing member that is configured to engage a lower lip of the cover to bias the respective mounting bracket toward the top plate of the cover. The mounting brackets may include a release button that is configured to extend through a gap between the headrail and the top plate of the cover. The release button may be configured to be operated to adjust the motorized window treatment into a service position in which access is provided to at least one battery within the headrail.

An assembly for display of a window covering having a display case and a window covering attached to a display board. The a display case adapted to reversibly hold a display board near the top of the display case through a magnetic bond between the display case and the display board. Mounting hardware for the window covering is engaged with the display board. The window covering is engaged with mounting hardware so that the window covering with the mounting hardware, and the display board may be removed from the display case such that a different mounting board with a different set of mounting hardware and a different window covering may be inserted in the display case to demonstrate the appearance and functionality of the window covering.
