[0025] With reference to FIG. 3, FIG. 4, FIG. 5, FIG. 6 and FIG. 7A, the fixing brackets 5 are arranged and fixed on two sides of top of a window. The fixing brackets 5 comprise fixing bodies 51 and stand frames 52 connected below the fixing bodies 51. The fixing bodies 51 are provided with vertical members 511 which includes a plurality of fixing holes 512 (513) in a transverse portion and a longitudinal portion. Two sides of the vertical members 511 below the plurality of fixing holes 513 in the longitudinal portion are bent inwardly. Each of the stand frames 52 is provided with a connection portion 521 connecting a bottom end of the longitudinal portion of each vertical member 511, and a guide portion 522 extending from a lower part of the connection portion 521. Two shaft holes 5211 are respectively located at top of each side of the connection portions 521, Shapes of the two shaft holes 5211 are designed as square holes for inserting the first protruding shaft 323 of the first shaft sleeve 32 and the end 3501 of the second protruding shaft 35, the first covering wall 322 of the first shaft sleeve 32 and the arc-shaped protrusion 352 of the second protruding shaft 35 respectively abut against inner sides of each of the stand frames 52. Two grooves 523 are formed below two shaft holes 5211 on the guide portion 522 thereof, so that the curtain rolling device 4 can be temporarily placed when being mounted. The guide portion 522 is provided with a square through hole 524 between the two grooves 523 for the fixing columns 402 to pass through and to be positioned. A guide groove 525 is formed below the square through hole 524 and bent toward an outer side of the guide portion 522 for guiding the fixing columns 402 to be positioned into the through holes 524.

[0026] The starting end 73 of the curtain sheet 7 is embedded in the insertion groove 31 of the upper rail 30, the terminal end 74 of the curtain sheet 7 is embedded in the groove channel 401 of the curtain rolling device 4. In one embodiment, the curtain sheet 7 includes a plurality of light-transmitting parts 71 with a plurality of holes 711 and a plurality of light-impermeable portions 72 without the plurality of holes, and the plurality of light-transmitting parts 71 and the plurality of light-impermeable portions 72 are arranged at intervals to form a forward overlap double-layered curtain cloth.

[0027] With reference to FIG. 3 FIG. 4, FIG. 5, FIG. 6, FIG. 7A, FIG. 7B, FIG. 8A, FIG. 8B, FIG. 9A, FIG. 9A, FIG. 9B, FIG. 9C and FIG. 9D, the fixing brackets 5 are fixed at the two sides of top of the window in order to mount the zebra curtain 3, the starting end 73 of the curtain sheet 7 is embedded into the insertion groove 31 of the upper rail 30, and the terminal end 74 of the curtain sheet 7 is inserted into the groove channel 401 of the curtain rolling device 4 to be positioned. The terminal end 74 of the curtain sheet 7 is wound around an outer surface of the curtain rolling device 4, so that the first protruding shaft 323 of the first shaft sleeve 32 arranged at one end of the upper rail 30 is axially connected with one of the two shaft holes 5211 of the fixing bracket 5 at the right side, and the spring 36 arranged inside the bearing 34 is regulated through the second protruding shaft 35 so as to assemble the second shaft sleeve 33. The square shaft 350 of the second protruding shaft 35 is axially connected with the other one of the two shaft holes 5211 of the fixing bracket 5 at the left side. When the zebra curtain 3 is assembled, if the bottom end of the curtain sheet 7 collides against a window sill, and the plurality of light-transmitting parts 71 and the plurality of light-impermeable parts 72 of the curtain sheet 7 are not forward overlapped. Thus, a user can press the second protruding shaft 35 to compress the spring 36 mounted inside the chamber 344, so that the one end 3501 of the square shaft 350 of the second protruding shaft 35 is separated from the other one of the two shaft holes 5211 of the fixing bracket 5 at the left side to take off the zebra curtain 3, and then the upper rail 30 is rotated in a clockwise or a counterclockwise direction as required to wind around the curtain sheet 7 on the outer surface of the upper rail 30, such as shown in FIGS. 9B and 9C. After adjusting the plurality of light-transmitting parts 71 and the plurality of light-impermeable parts 72 of the curtain sheet 7 to be forward overlapped, the first protruding shaft 323 at one end of the upper rail 30 is axially connected with one of the two shaft holes 5211 of the fixing bracket 5 at the right side, the second protruding shaft 35 is pressed through the spring 36 inside the bearing 34 to be for telescopic deformation. After the second protruding shaft 35, which is previously pressed, is released, the second protruding shaft 35 gradually returns to an original state by the action of the spring 36 being compressed, and one end 3501 of the square shaft 350 of the second protruding shaft 35 is axially connected with the other one of the two shaft holes 5211 of the fixing bracket 5 at the left side, so that the arc-shaped protrusion 352 of the second protruding shaft 35 abuts against an inner side of the stand frames 52 to prevent the second protruding shaft 35 from falling off, so that the user can conveniently adjust the plurality of light-transmitting parts 71 and the plurality of light-impermeable parts 72 of the curtain sheet 7 to be forward overlapped as required to meet the light and dark state of indoor space light required by the user.
