Curtain remote controller and a method for setting remote control stroke thereof
11553810 · 2023-01-17 ·

A curtain remote controller and a method for setting remote control stroke thereof are provided, and the curtain remote controller controls the curtain driving motor through remote-control buttons; the managing buttons are used to set the upper and lower stroke interval of the curtain, so that the curtain moves within the interval and free adjustment of the stroke interval according to specific requirements is achieved. Meanwhile, the curtain remote controller adopts a conversion switch to form the remote control module and the setting module of the curtain remote controller, so that the function modules of the buttons are clearly divided to avoid situations such as the user is confused by too many buttons; it is convenient for users to identify each function module with a simple operation interface; the logical relationship of the curtain remote controller is simplified, and misoperation of the user is avoided.

ELECTROMECHANICAL ACTUATOR FOR BLACKOUT OR SUN-SHADING DEVICE AND BLACKOUT OR SUN-SHADING INSTALLATION COMPRISING SUCH AN ACTUATOR
20230009409 · 2023-01-12 ·

An electromechanical actuator is integrated into a blackout or sun-shading device that includes a screen, top and bottom bars, and top and bottom winding shafts. The screen is between the bars. The top bar is connected to the top winding shaft by first cords. The bottom bar is connected to the bottom winding shaft by second cords. The electromechanical actuator includes first and second transmission devices and an electric motor that drives the shafts. The first transmission device connects to the motor and the top winding shaft and includes a first clutch. The second transmission device connects to the electric motor and the bottom winding shaft and includes a second clutch. When the motor is activated with only one clutch engaged, only one winding shaft is rotated. Moreover, when the motor is activated electrically and the clutches are engaged, the winding shafts are rotated by the motor.

DOUBLE-DRUM TYPE CURTAIN DRUM MODULE
20180000273 · 2018-01-04 ·

Disclosed is a double-drum type curtain drum module, comprising a shell base having two compartments, a first guide wheel, a second guide wheel, an auxiliary cord rotator installed in a first compartment, and two cord drums installed in a second compartment. At least two reinforcing bars in parallel are formed in the first compartment. A plurality of first wheel-connecting grooves are formed on the reinforcing bars for installing the first guide wheel. The second compartment has a plurality of second wheel-connecting grooves formed on a bottom surface of the shell base for installing the second guide wheel. A connecting channel is formed between the reinforcing bars and exposed from the bottom surface of the shell base. The connecting channel extends into the second compartment for coupling the first wheel-connecting grooves and the second wheel-connecting grooves. A control cord reset opening is formed from the first guide wheel to a first end of the connecting channel to align between the curtain auxiliary cord access holes. A control cord transferred opening is formed from the second guide wheel to a second end of the connecting channel. Accordingly, what is solved is the rubbing issue of conventional control cord against the topmost curtain sunshade blade caused by conventional control cord being oblique to the curtain auxiliary cords adjacent to the control cord access holes.
