[0002] The present invention relates to a slide rail structure for a window blind, and more particularly to a slide rail structure which is provided with at least one extensible rail set, at least one pulley set, and a plurality of top brackets to achieve effects of an easy and quick assembly, a stable positioning, a smooth sliding, and being delicate and pretty, thereby being applied to all kinds of slide rails for window blinds or similar structures.
[0004] A conventional slide rail structure for a window blind includes primarily a plurality of rail sets which are installed on a top edge of a window. A lower edge of each rail set is provided respectively with a plurality of parallel sliding slots, for sheathing sliding rods which are used to suspend a body of window blind. In addition, a top edge of each of the aforementioned rail sets is provided with a plurality of locking slots, and a positioning set is constituted by positioning units which are fixed at two sides of the top edge of window to suspend the rail sets. The positioning unit further includes a positioning plate and a plurality of positioning blocks which are serially installed on the positioning plate, and a bottom end of the positioning block is provided with a locking part which is latched with the locking slot of rail set, so as to be associated with an implementation for suspending the body of a multi-layer window blind, by adjusting an amount of the locking part of positioning block and of the rail set. Although the slide rail structure for the window blind is provided with the function of suspending the body of multi-layer window blind, the rail is in a fixed design; therefore, a length of the entire structure is fixed, and the structure cannot be extended for use. Moreover, as there are too many locking positions in the entire structure, it will cause an inconvenience to implementation personnel while working on site, and thus waste a labor time. On the other hand, if the rail is configured as usual, into two slide rails which are assembled together and can be loosely extended with respect to each other, as a connection surface of the two rails is formed with a stage-like drop, a pulley which slides in the rail will not slide smoothly, or will be even jammed. Furthermore, an end side of each slide rail should be sheathed with a side cover to prevent the pulley from sliding out. Accordingly, the conventional rail structure still cannot meet a user's requirement in a practical application.
[0005] The primary object of present invention is to provide a slide rail structure for a window blind, wherein by a design which assembles at least one extensible rail set, at least one pulley set, and a plurality of top brackets, each top bracket can provide a quick and robust sheathing for two ends of slide rails of the extensible rail set by arc-shape locking parts formed at sides of the top brackets, so as to provide effects of an easy and quick assembly and a rigid positioning, thereby greatly improving a practicability and convenience of the entire structure.
[0006] Another object of the present invention is to provide a slide rail structure for a window blind, wherein by walls which are formed at end sides of the top brackets for providing an abutting and positioning for the slide rails of extensible rail set, cost and assembly time which were spent for manufacturing the top bracket and a side cover at a same time can be effectively reduced, and by an indentation part which is located above the wall at the end side of top bracket, strength of the top bracket can be improved, so as to provide effects of an easy assembly, a reduction of cost, and an increase of the strength of top bracket, thereby improving a practicability and convenience of the entire structure.
[0007] Still another object of the present invention is to provide a slide rail structure for a window blind, wherein by a hole which is located on each top bracket, the top brackets can be directly locked and positioned on a ceiling, or, the hole of each top bracket can be first locked and assembled with a plurality of holes on an auxiliary piece with screw elements, and then the auxiliary piece is assembled with a wall bracket by screw elements according to requirement, such that the top brackets can be locked and assembled on the wall or the ceiling. Therefore, each extensible rail set, pulley set, top bracket, and auxiliary piece can be assembled first, and then are quickly locked on the wall bracket by implementation personnel, thereby facilitating an on-site implementation and improving convenience of the entire structure.
[0008] Yet another object of the present invention is to provide a slide rail structure for a window blind, wherein by a long piece which is located between two opposite sliding blocks of the pullet set, and a loose assembling of a shaft on a bended extension section of the sliding block with a roller, each slide rail can smoothly slide in the extensible rail set, thereby improving a practicability of the entire structure.
[0009] Still yet another object of the present invention is to provide a slide rail structure for a window blind, wherein by a U-shape bending part which is formed on at least one side of the sliding block, and a projection part of a slope which is formed at a front end of a side wall of the sliding block, the long piece can be easily pushed in, and the sliding block can be easily locked and assembled with a through-hole of the long piece, thereby forming a rigid positioning. Moreover, as an open slot of each slide rail of the present invention is opened toward an interior, an entire appearance will be very delicate and pretty after being assembled, without exposing out the interior components, so as to increase the beauty. Therefore, the present invention is provided with effects of an easy and quick assembling, a rigid positioning, and being delicate and pretty, thereby increasing a practicability, a convenience, and a beauty of the entire structure.
[0010] Accordingly, a slide rail structure for a window blind of the present invention includes at least one extensible rail set, at least one pulley set, and a plurality of top brackets. The extensible rail set is provided with at least two slide rails which are loosely extended with respect to each other and are assembled together, and a side of each slide rail is opened with an open slot. The pulley set is loosely assembled in the slide rail of extensible rail set, and is extended out of the open slot at one side of the slide rail. The pulley set is also assembled with a long piece on which is fixed with an assembly element for assembling with and positioning a window blind. Each top bracket is assembled with the extensible rail set, and a side of each top bracket is formed with an arc-shape locking part, for sheathing the slide rail of extensible rail set (wherein an end side of the top bracket which is assembled at two ends of the extensible rail set can be further provided with a wall, for abutting and positioning the slide rail of extensible rail set), whereas each top bracket is provided with a hole for locking and positioning.
