CABLE MAINTAINING DEVICE FOR CURTAINS
A curtain cable maintaining device includes a cable maintaining unit having a bottom board with a guide hole defined therethrough. A pulley set is connected on the bottom board and has a first pulley and a second pulley. The cable is wrapped to the scrolling unit, the mandrel unit, the first pulley and the second pulley, and extends through the guide hole. The cable does not contact the periphery of the guide hole so as to reduce the friction with the guide hole and the cable does not hook with the mandrel unit when moving.

The present invention relates to a curtain cable maintaining device, and more particularly, to a curtain cable maintaining device which makes the operation of the cable be smoothly.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTIONThe conventional curtain cable controlling device is disclosed in
However, when the cable is operated to activate the at least one mandrel unit 31 and the at least one scrolling unit 32 to control the movement of the curtain, the cable 33 may be hooked to the at least one mandrel unit 31 and affect the operation of the curtain. Furthermore, because the cable 33 extends through the through hole 22 of the head box 20, the friction between the cable 33 and the periphery of the through hole 22 increases to shorten the life of the cable 33.
The present invention intends to provide a curtain cable maintaining device which improves the shortcomings of the conventional curtain cable controlling device.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTIONThe present invention relates to a curtain cable maintaining device and comprises at least two cable maintaining units and each cable maintaining unit has a bottom board. A pulley set is connected on the bottom board and has a first pulley with a first groove and a second pulley with a second groove. A guide hole is defined through the bottom board and located corresponding to the second pulley. Two fixing holes are respectively defined in two ends of the bottom board. A head box has a space and multiple through holes are defined through a bottom plate of the head box. The at least two cable maintaining units are fixed at the fixing holes of the bottom plate of the head box by. The guide holes of the at least two cable maintaining units are located corresponding to the through holes. At least one controlling unit has at least one mandrel unit, a scrolling unit and multiple cables. The at least one mandrel unit is fixed at the middle portion of the space. The scrolling unit is fixed at one end of the space. The at least two cable maintaining units are located between the at least one mandrel unit and the scrolling unit. The cables are respectively wrapped to the at least one mandrel unit, the scrolling unit, the first grooves and the second grooves. The cables then extend through the guide holes of the bottom board. The cable does not contact the periphery of the guide hole so as to reduce the friction with the guide hole and the cable does not hook with the mandrel unit when moving.
The present invention will become more obvious from the following description when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings which show, for purposes of illustration only, a preferred embodiment in accordance with the present invention.
Referring to
A head box 20 has a space 21 defined therein and multiple through holes 22 are defined through a bottom plate of the head box 20, the at least two cable maintaining units 10 fixed to the fixing holes 112 of the bottom plate of the head box 20. The guide holes 111 of the at least two cable maintaining units 10 are located corresponding to the through holes 22.
At least one controlling unit 30 has at least one mandrel unit 31, at least two scrolling units 32 and multiple cables 33. The at least one mandrel unit 31 is fixed at the middle portion of the space 21. The at least two scrolling units 32 are fixed at two ends of the space 21. The at least two cable maintaining units 10 are located between the at least one mandrel unit 31 and the at least two scrolling units 32. The cables 33 are respectively wrapped to the at least one mandrel unit 31, the at least two scrolling units 32, the first grooves 110a and the second grooves 110b. The cables 33 then extend through the guide holes 111 of the bottom board 11. As shown in
Referring to
Referring to
The cables 33 do not contact the peripheries of the guide holes 111 of the bottom board 11, so that when the cables 33 are moved, the cables 33 do not hook with the at least one mandrel unit 31 and there will be no friction and resistance generated between the cables 33 and the peripheries of the guide holes 111 of the bottom board 11. Therefore, the operation of the cables 33 is smooth.
While we have shown and described the embodiment in accordance with the present invention, it should be clear to those skilled in the art that further embodiments may be made without departing from the scope of the present invention.
