A DEVICE WITH CURVED ENDS FOR THE LONGITUDINAL ADJUSTMENT OF PELMETS

Abstract: The device according to the present invention consists of a central right element (1) and of two curved ends (4), connected by means of adjustments that may be obtained with the telescopic sliding of one end part of said central element (1) with respect to said ends (4) that are therefore out of one piece with the application of a bond (7).

Description: "A DEVICE WITH CURVED ENDS FOR THE LONGITUDINAL ADJU¬ STMENT OF PELMETS" The present invention concerns a device that allows the longitudinal adjustment of pelmets according to the width of the windows or other placement of the same, comprising a central right element and two curved ends. It is already well known that the pelmets are the most used support structures for curtains, from an aesthetic and functional point of view, but that they request for their placing the operation of specialized people for providing the dimensional adaptation to the chosen pla¬ cements. It is the aim of the present invention to provide the pelmets with a simple and functional adjusting device so as to allow the mounting thereof in different placements according to the wishes of the users and by themselves, without the help of specialized persons. The aim set forth is reached by means of the device ac- cording to the present invention, derived from the par¬ tition of the pelmet into a central right element and two curved end parts, connected by means of adjustments that may be obtained with the telescopic sliding of one end part of said central element with respect to the o- ther one, and therefore out of one piece with the appli¬ cation of a bond. The advantages of the device according to the present invention are various and considerable: - the pelmet may be mounted by anyone, even a not spe¬ cialized person; - the central right element may be provided for being covered by tapestry like cloth, paper and similar used for walls, with a considerable aesthetic effect; - due to the covering with tapestries or similar, the e- lements composing the device may be realized, beyond the very expensive wood, also of plastic materials li¬ ke polyurethan and similar, of metal or other mate- rials, thus lowering the production costs. The present invention will be described more in detail hereinbelow according to the enclosed drawings, in which a preferred embodiment is shown. Figure 1 shows a perspective and an exploded back view of a pelmet. Figure 2 shows a mounted pelmet with the longitudinal adjusting device. Figure 3 shows a perspective and an exploded view of the covering of the elements of the pelmets by ta¬ pestries like cloth, paper or similar. The figures show a device for the longitudinal adjust¬ ment of pelmets according to the width of the windows or any other placing, comprising a central right element and two curved end parts, characterized in: - a central right element 1 with a sight face 2 and an upper orthogonal side 3 of polyurethan or other suit¬ able material; - two end parts with a sight curved surface 4, upper or¬ thogonal side 5 and back guide 6 for housing and tele- dscopic sliding that is possible for a few centime¬ ters, of the two laterla end parte of said central e- lement 1, so as to allow the longitudinal adaptation to different placements; - a small tongue 7, made out of one piece by means of a screw, of pins, by pressure or in any other way, to the end part 4 and to the central element 1, for unit¬ ing them. In possible variants of the present invention, said end parts 4 with curved surface may be replaced with conven¬ tional ends at right angle, always provided with a back guide 6 for the telescopic sliding for the longitudinal adjustment of the central right element 1. Furthermore, still according to the present invention, central right element 1 is provided with adhesive bands 8 and 9 for "the placing of the tapestries that must adhere and be fixed to the sight surface.

Claims: - 4 CLAIMS 1. A device for the longitudinal adjustment of pelmets according to the width of the windows or other placement, comprising a central right element and two curved end parts, characterized in: - a central right element (1) with a sight face (2) and an upper orthogonal side (3) of polyurethan or other suitable material; - two end parts with a sight curved surface (4), upper thogonal side (5) and back guide (6) for housing and te¬ lescopic sliding that is possible for a few centime¬ ters, of the two lateral end parte of said central e- lement (1), so as to allow the longitudinal adaptation to different placements; - a small tongue (7), made out of one piece by means of a screw, of pins, by pressure or in any other way, to the end part (4) and to the central element (1), for uniting them. 2. A device according to claim 1, characterized in that said central right element (1) is provided with adhesive bands (8) and (9) for the application of tape¬ stries (P) that must adhere and be fixed to the sight surface. 3. A device according to claim 1, characterized in that said end parts (4) with curved surface are re¬ placed by right angle end parts, still provided with a back guide (6) for telescopic sliding for the longitu- dinal adjustment of the central right element (1).
