  • Patent number: 12173556
    Abstract: A window blind includes a headrail, two lift cords, a blind body, a bottom rail and two cord winding devices. The two cord winding devices are respectively installed on the bottom of the bottom rail. Subject to the technical feature that the opposite ends of the two lift cords are respectively tied to the adjustment columns of the two cord winding devices, if the winding stroke is inconsistent and the blind body is folded unevenly or skewed when the window blind is folded or stretched, the adjustment column of one cord winding device can be fine-adjusted to let the respective lift cord be gradually wound and covered on the adjustment column, so that the bottom rail and the blind body can be gradually adjusted to be substantially parallel to the bottom of the headrail, thereby effectively achieving the effect of fine-tuning and correcting the blind body.

  • Publication number: 20240360720
    Abstract: A cord divider is positioned on both sides of the cord winder of the control box of a cordless window curtain. Each cord divider is equipped with protrusions and crosspieces. When the cords are pulled out from the cord divider, the cords do not tangle or knot. The cords are wound up on the driving gear set, and the driving cord device prevents the cords from overlapping and causing uneven heights on both sides of the curtain. The use of cylinders in the cord dividers prevents excessive friction of the cords during use. There is no need to change the current cooperation way between the cords and the cord winder.
