  • Publication number: 20200080372
    Abstract: A blind capable of stepless positioning includes a control unit which controls the positioning of a shade, is disposed in a roller, and has a fixed sleeve, a spindle, a movable sleeve and a pre-torque spring. The fixed sleeve is fixedly disposed at a roller holder and fitted around one end of the spindle, whereas the movable sleeve is fixedly disposed at the roller and fitted around the other end of the spindle; hence, the movable sleeve rotates together with the roller. The pre-torque spring is fitted around the spindle and has two ends connected to the fixed sleeve and the movable sleeve, respectively, such that the pre-torque spring operates in conjunction with the movable sleeve. While the shade is being rolled up and rolled down, a predetermined torque level of the pre-torque spring matches the length of the shade to therefore brake the shade at any height.
