An apparatus for adjusting a tilt angle of a plurality of slats in a window blind. The window blind includes a headrail having disposed therein a shaft that rotates responsive to rotation of an externally accessible angle adjustment wand. The apparatus includes a pulley coupled with the shaft and the slats. The pulley causes adjustment of the tilt angle of the slats in response to rotation of the shaft, provides a first torque at a first position corresponding to an open position of the slats and a second torque at a second position corresponding to an approximately closed position of the slats, where the second torque is greater than the first torque.

A horizontal blind system includes a plurality of elongate members and a plurality of support rungs. Each support rung extends along an end region of a respective one of the plurality of elongate members. A pair of outer sleeves extend between adjacent ones of the plurality of support rungs, with each outer sleeve defining an inner opening extending along a length thereof. A pair of lift cables extend through a respective inner openings of the pair of outer sleeves such that a majority of each lift cable is concealed by a respective outer sleeve. The pair of lift cables are moveable relative to the pair of outer sleeves between a stowed configuration and a deployed configuration, with a distance between at least one adjacent pair of the plurality of support rungs decreasing as the pair of lift cables transition from the deployed configuration toward the stowed configuration.

A window blind includes top and bottom beams, and many slats disposed therebetween. The top beam has two opposite lateral holes. The window blind further includes a slat folding transmission device having a cord rolling member disposed in the top beam, and two opposite lift transmission cords passing through the lateral holes of the lateral plates of the top beam respectively. Two ends of each lift transmission cord are connected with the bottom beam and the cord rolling member respectively, so that the two lift transmission cords can pull the bottom beam simultaneously when being rolled by the cord rolling member, thereby moving the bottom beam upwardly to fold up the slats. Therefore, the slats of the window blind of the invention need no processing and keep complete in structure, thereby providing good effect of blocking out the light when being adjusted to the inclined condition.

A peak cover for lift cord and tilt ladder includes a limiter having an arcuate cover. A fixed engagement plate is disposed at an upper end of a left side of the arcuate cover. Two stop walls are disposed on two sides of a lower end of the left side of the arcuate cover. Two grooves are formed inside the stop walls. Two annular ribs of a cord winding reel are engaged in the grooves, whereby the cord winding reel is freely rotatable. A movable engagement plate is disposed at an upper end of a right side of the arcuate cover. Four raised columns are formed on an upper end of the arcuate cover. The arcuate cover of the limiter is capped on the cord winding reel. The fixed engagement plate and the movable engagement plate of the arcuate cover are engaged with the annular ribs on two sides of the cord winding reel. Accordingly, after the arcuate cover is connected with the cord winding reel, the arcuate cover blocks the space above the cord winding reel so as to prevent the cord wound on the cord winding reel from jumping out of the cord winding reel.
