Integrated accessible battery compartment for motorized window treatment
A battery-powered window treatment, such as a roller shade, may include a battery compartment that provides access to batteries while the window treatment is assembled and mounted to a structure. The battery compartment may be pivotally supported by a housing of the window treatment, and operable between opened and closed positions. The batteries may be concealed when the battery compartment is closed, and may be accessible when the battery compartment is open. The battery compartment may be operated opened and closed while a shade of the window treatment is at any position, such that removal of the batteries does not result in the loss of tracking information for the shade. The window treatment may include a fascia that is operably connected to the battery compartment, such that when the battery compartment is opened, the fascia does not obstruct access to the batteries, and does not interfere with the shade.

Curtain remote controller and a method for setting remote control stroke thereof
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.
Device for winding a screen having a hinged wall attachment
The invention relates to a device for winding a screen (10) which comprises a tubular winder (12) defining a reference axis (100); a first wall attachment (18A) for fastening a first axial end portion (14A) of the tubular winder (12) to a first wall (16A) in a use position of the screen-winding device (10); and a second wall attachment (18B) for fastening a second axial end portion (14B) of the tubular winder (12) to a second wall (16B) in the use position of the screen-winding device (10). The first wall attachment (18A) comprises at least one tab (54) for fastening to the first wall (16A) and at least one first hinge (58) supported by the fastening tab (54) in order to guide a pivoting of the tubular winder (12) about a first axis of articulation (200) that does not intersect with the reference axis (100) and, in the use position, orthogonal to the reference axis (100). The first wall attachment (18A) comprises a second jointed hinge (66) supported by the fastening tab (54) in order to guide the first hinge (58) so as to rotate about a second axis of articulation (300) that does not intersect with the reference axis and is not parallel to the first axis of articulation (200).
