  • Patent number: 11142944
    Abstract: An apparatus for adjusting a tilt angle of a plurality of slats in a window blind. The window blind includes a headrail having disposed therein a shaft that rotates responsive to rotation of an externally accessible angle adjustment wand. The apparatus includes a pulley coupled with the shaft and the slats. The pulley causes adjustment of the tilt angle of the slats in response to rotation of the shaft, provides a first torque at a first position corresponding to an open position of the slats and a second torque at a second position corresponding to an approximately closed position of the slats, where the second torque is greater than the first torque.

  • Publication number: 20210307506
    Abstract: A cabinet assembly and cabinet assembly kit include two side panels and a rear panel coupled by hinge assemblies. Each hinge assembly includes a first bracket, a second bracket, and a linkage. The first and second brackets each include a key that alternate to create a key channel when the one of the side panels is positioned at a generally right angle relative to the rear panel. Each hinge assembly permits the cabinet assembly to be configured in a folded configuration in which the side panels are parallel with the rear panel. A locking bracket includes a locking member sized and shaped to be inserted into the key channel. The locking bracket locks the side panel into a substantially right angle relative to the rear panel when the locking member is inserted into the key channel.

  • Publication number: 20200399954
    Abstract: An apparatus for adjusting a tilt angle of a plurality of slats in a window blind is disclosed. The window blind includes a headrail having disposed therein a shaft that causes the tilt angle of the slats to be adjusted when the shaft is rotated. The apparatus comprises a first bevel gear, a second bevel gear in mechanical communication with the first bevel gear and coupled with the shaft, and a motor coupled to the shaft. Actuation of the first bevel gear causes a corresponding rotation of the shaft to adjust the tilt angle of the slats, and actuation by the motor causes a rotation of the shaft to adjust the tilt angle of the slats.
