Patent ID: 7159638

Claim:
A pull cord control device for Venetian blind, including a mounting body made up of an engagement piece extending at one side thereof, and a limiting piece disposed at the other side thereof wherein the engagement piece thereof has a pair of symmetrical registration posts properly protruding thereon each of the pair of symmetrical registration posts having rollers mounted thereto respectively and a pair of abutting blocks symmetrically extending downwards at one side thereof, and the limiting piece is equipped with a pair of teeth racks symmetrically extending at both sides thereon in mesh with control gear disposed at one side thereof to define a confinement space there-between for a coupling post with an embossed roller mounted thereto located in the middle thereof; a cover having a plurality of coupling holes distributed thereon to engage with the registration posts and the coupling post of the mounting piece respectively thereby is provided with two resilient locating hooks symmetrically tilted outwards at both outer lateral edges thereof; the pull cord control device further comprising: a U-shaped groove being vertically indented at the corresponding inner side of the limiting piece therein and a U-shaped protection rod located therein and abutted against the upper edge of the confinement space thereof the U-shaped protection rod having two unturned ends configured to partially engage the U-shaped groove; a decoration lid of an oval shape with a pull-cord passage slot disposed thereon being integrally formed at one end of the limiting piece thereof with the protection rod exposed precisely at the inner lower edge of the pull-cord passage slot thereof; a plane abutting facet being defined at one end of the cover thereon precisely abutted against the inner upper edge of the decoration lid thereof; wherein both ends of a pull cord extending by one of the positioning rollers and led through the space defined by the embossed roller and the control gear thereof are guided through the upper edge of the protection rod before being suspended downwards through the pull-cord passage slot of the decoration lid respectively, to substantially prevent the pull cord from directly rubbing against the frame edges of the pull-cord passage slot.
