Patent number: 9797160Abstract: A pull holder of a covering curtain has an annular handle, an enclosed hole surrounded by the handle, a pivot cover, and a torsion spring. The pivot cover is pivotally connected to the handle via a pivot rod portion. The pivot rod portion has a pivot rod and a position restricting flange radially formed on the pivot rod and disposed between a first pivot portion and a supporting portion of the handle and next to the supporting portion. The torsion spring is mounted around the pivot rod and disposed between the supporting portion and a connecting portion of the handle. Thus, the pivot rod of the pivot rod portion of the pivot cover does not axially slide relative to the handle. Accordingly, the pull holder does not disassemble and can be operated stably.Type: GrantFiled: June 27, 2016Date of Patent: October 24, 2017Assignee: Macauto Industrial Co., Ltd.Inventors: Paul Lin, Hung-Ming Yen, Chun-Liang Lee, Chu-Yin Huang

Patent number: 9506291Abstract: An automatic reset device for curtain pull bar is fixed on a rod of a curtain fabric and comprises a fixed base, a pull bar having a handle, and a torsion-supplying element. One end of a rotation axis of the pull bar is located at the fixed base, and the pull bar can be rotated relative to the fixed base. The torsion-supplying element that preserves torsion is connected between the pull bar and the fixed base. When the curtain fabric is furled and the pull bar is released, the pull bar is automatically rotated and reset by the preserved torsion force of the torsion-supplying element. The handle of the pull bar will not collide with the door trim of a vehicle, and the abutting pressure forced against the door trim by the handle of the pull bar can be efficiently controlled.Type: GrantFiled: February 17, 2015Date of Patent: November 29, 2016Assignee: MACAUTO INDUSTRIAL CO., LTD.Inventors: Paul Lin, Hung-Ming Yen
