Enclosed-type cellular shade structure
An enclosed-type cellular shade structure includes a plurality of interconnected cellular pieces uniformly arranged from top to bottom and fixed between a head rail and a bottom rail to form an enclosed-type cellular shade with free ends disposed at both end edges thereof, permitting the cellular pieces to be raised or lowered by a lift cord wherein both side edges of each cellular piece are defined by a long bent section and a short bent section that are respectively equipped with a coupling end and a fixing end to be securely attached to the bottom surface of each immediate upper cellular piece thereby. Therefore, when the cellular shade is fully expanded, the short bent sections thereof will be appropriately stretched into a flat surface, economically saving both time and efforts in cleaning as well as reinforcing a uniform expansion of the cellular pieces to achieve the best application state thereby.

There are some drawbacks to such conventional cellular shade 10. First, no matter the cellular shade 10 is fully expanded as shown in
It is, therefore, the primary purpose of the present invention to provide an enclosed-type cellular shade structure, including a plurality of interconnected cellular pieces uniformly arranged from top to bottom and fixed between a head rail and a bottom rail to form an enclosed-type cellular shade wherein both side edges of each cellular piece are defined by a long bent section and a short bent section with a coupling end and a fixing end respectively disposed thereon so that, when the enclosed-type cellular shade is fully expanded, the short bent sections connected by the fixing ends thereof will be appropriately stretched into a flat surface that can be simply flapped to remove dust there-from. Thus, only a patterned surface disposed at the long bent sections thereof is required to be wiped and cleaned, economically saving time and efforts in the cleaning thereof to achieve the best application state.
It is, therefore, the second purpose of the present invention to provide an enclosed-type cellular shade structure wherein, when the cellular shade is fully expanded, the short bent sections connected by the fixing ends thereof are appropriately stretched into a flat surface to form a locating support thereby so that the long bent sections disposed at the other side thereof can be sequentially unfolded and accurately displayed in an even and consecutive transverse V-shaped patterned surface, facilitating better visual effect and a uniform expansion of the present invention thereby.

Claims
1. An enclosed-type cellular shade structure, including a plurality of interconnected cellular pieces uniformly arranged from top to bottom and fixed between a head rail and a bottom rail wherein the cellular pieces thereof are sequentially linked one to another to form a honeycomb and enclosed-type cellular shade with free ends disposed at both end edges thereof, permitting the cellular pieces to be raised or lowered by a lift cord in the collection or expansion operation thereof; the present invention being characterized by that,
- —each cellular piece being made up of a long bent section and a short bent section disposed at both side edges thereon, and the long and short bent sections thereof being respectively equipped with a coupling end and a fixing end to be securely attached to the bottom surface of each immediate upper cellular piece thereby; therefore, via the aforementioned structure, when the cellular shade is fully expanded, the short bent sections disposed at one side thereof will be appropriately stretched into a flat surface to support the long bent sections unfolding in an accurate and consecutive transverse V-shaped patterned surface, economically saving both time and efforts in the cleaning of the enclosed-type cellular shade as well as reinforcing a uniform expansion of the cellular pieces to achieve the best application state thereby.
2. The enclosed-type cellular shade structure as claimed in claim 1 wherein the coupling end and the fixing end disposed at both side edges of each cellular piece can be arranged to extend inwards in a symmetrical manner.
3. The enclosed-type cellular shade structure as claimed in claim 1 wherein the coupling end and the fixing end of each cellular piece can also be folded to extend outwards in a symmetrical manner.
4. The enclosed-type cellular shade structure as claimed in claim 1 wherein the coupling end and the fixing end of each cellular piece can also be correspondingly folded to extend towards the same direction (like towards the left or the right side thereof).
