Curtain Pole Assembly
Abstract
A pole assembly for a curtain includes a pole module, two end caps mounted on the pole module, and two connecting members each mounted between the pole module and a respective one of the end caps to connect the pole module and the respective end cap. The pole module has two opposite ends each provided with a mounting portion. The pole module has a side each provided with a guide track. Each of the connecting members is mounted on the respective mounting portion of the pole module and is secured in the guide track of the pole module. Each of the two end caps has an end portion provided with a mounting head mounted on the respective mounting portion of the pole module.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A pole assembly for a curtain, comprising:
a pole module; two end caps mounted on the pole module; and two connecting members each mounted between the pole module and a respective one of the two end caps to connect the pole module and the respective end cap; wherein the pole module has two opposite ends each provided with a mounting portion for mounting a respective one of the two end caps and a respective one of the two connecting members; the pole module has a side each provided with an elongate guide track; each of the two connecting members is mounted on the respective mounting portion of the pole module and is secured in the guide track of the pole module; each of the two end caps has an end portion provided with a mounting head mounted on the respective mounting portion of the pole module.
2 . The pole assembly for a curtain of claim 1 , wherein
each of the two connecting members has an end face provided with two screw holes; the mounting head of each of the two end caps has a side provided with a threaded rod screwed into one of the two screw holes of the respective connecting member so that the mounting head of each of the two end caps is locked onto the respective connecting member.
3 . The pole assembly for a curtain of claim 2 , wherein the mounting head of each of the two end caps has an inside provided with a mounting groove mounted on the respective mounting portion of the pole module.
4 . The pole assembly for a curtain of claim 3 , wherein the threaded rod of each of the two end caps is located at a central portion of the mounting groove.
5 . The pole assembly for a curtain of claim 3 , wherein
the mounting portion of the pole module has a substantially semi-circular cross-sectional shape; the mounting groove of each of the two end caps has a substantially circular shape.
6 . The pole assembly for a curtain of claim 1 , wherein each of the two connecting members has two opposite slideways mounted in the guide track of the pole module.
7 . The pole assembly for a curtain of claim 6 , wherein each of the two slideways of each of the two connecting members is slidably mounted on a respective one of the two guide rails of the pole module.
8 . The pole assembly for a curtain of claim 6 , wherein each of the two connecting members is locked onto the pole module by a locking screw and a washer.
9 . The pole assembly for a curtain of claim 8 , wherein
the guide track of the pole module is defined by two opposite guide rails of the pole module; each of the two connecting members has a side provided with a mounting recess for mounting the locking screw and the washer and provided with a screw bore connected to the mounting recess; the mounting recess of each of the two connecting members is connected to each of the two slideways and each of the two guide rails of the pole module; each of the two guide rails of the pole module is extended into the mounting recess of each of the two connecting members; the washer is received in the mounting recess of each of the two connecting members and is located between the locking screw and each of the two guide rails of the pole module; each of the two guide rails of the pole module is pressed by the washer and the locking screw and is locked in a respective one of the two slideways of each of the two connecting members; the locking screw is in turn extended through the mounting recess of each of the two connecting members, the washer and the guide track of the pole module and is screwed into the screw bore of each of the two connecting members to press the washer toward each of the two guide rails of the pole module.
10 . The pole assembly for a curtain of claim 2 , wherein the end face of each of the two connecting members is flush with an end face of the respective mounting portion of the pole module.
11 . The pole assembly for a curtain of claim 6 , wherein the two slideways of each of the two connecting members are parallel with each other and are in line with each other.
12 . The pole assembly for a curtain of claim 9 , wherein the screw bore of each of the two connecting members has a size smaller than that of the mounting recess and is located at a central portion of the mounting recess for screwing the locking screw.
13 . The pole assembly for a curtain of claim 9 , wherein
each of the two connecting members has a face provided with a fixing hole for fixing a fastening nut; the fastening nut is screwed onto the locking screw.
14 . The pole assembly for a curtain of claim 13 , wherein
each of the two guide rails of the pole module and each of the two connecting members are clamped between the locking screw and the fastening nut; the fixing hole of each of the two connecting members is connected to the screw bore; the screw bore of each of the two connecting members is connected between the mounting recess and the fixing hole.
15 . The pole assembly for a curtain of claim 13 , wherein the fixing hole of each of the two connecting members has a substantially hexagonal shape and has a size greater than that of the screw bore.
16 . The pole assembly for a curtain of claim 1 , wherein
the guide track of the pole module extends longitudinally through a whole length of the pole module; the pole module includes a plurality of poles which are detachably connected with each other; each of the poles of the pole module has a hollow inside; each of the poles of the pole module has at least one connecting portion; the connecting portions of the poles are connected with each other to connect the poles of the pole module together.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
