Sealed window louver control mechanisms

Abstract

Existing art sealed windows containing internal blind or louver structures are improved by replacing existing drawstring controls with a slider mechanism. Not only is this improved slider mechanism lower in profile, thereby facilitating a greater use with respect to sliding windows and other applications, the configuration is aesthetically appealing, and eliminates the problems and hazards that might be associated with drawstring-based solutions.

1 . In a window assembly of the type wherein a lovers or blinds and a lifting mechanism are sealed between two panes of glass and controlled through a rotational magnetic coupling, the improvement comprising: 
 a slider having a rotational magnetic coupling that cooperates with the rotational magnetic coupling associated with the lifting mechanism.    
     
     
         2 . The improvement of  claim 1 , further including a ratio increasing or reducing mechanism between the slider and the rotational magnetic coupling.
