A combination-type curtain hook having a stitching strap and a moving hook, characterized in that the stitching strap includes a stitching piece having one side being mounted with a plurality of protruded blocks being spaced apart to form a sliding rail, and the other side of the stitching piece is stitched to the folded flap of a curtain, and the moving hook including a pair of protruded arms at one side thereof is engageable with the protruded block and the protruded arms are positioned at the gap formed between each neighboring protruded blocks, thereby the sliding hook slides up and down along the protruded blocks, achieving the positioning and height adjustment of the curtain.
Description




BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION




(a) Technical Field of the Invention




The present invention relates to curtain hook, and in particular, to a combination-type curtain hook for which the height of the curtain mounted with this hook can be adjusted and positioned.




(b) Description of the Prior Art




Taiwanese Utility Model Patent Application No. 87206563 discloses a plastic curtain hook


1


, as shown in

FIG. 1

, wherein a flat plate


11


is stitched onto curtain. However, the drawback of this conventional hook is that the height of the curtain mounted with this hook cannot be adjusted. Taiwanese Utility Model Patent Application No. 86214586 relates to a curtain hook


2


and curtain mounted with this hook can be adjusted to a desirable height. The suspension hook


21


is provided with toothed rail at the sides thereof for mounting onto a moving hook


22


. The height of the moving hook


22


is adjustable and therefore the height of the curtain is adjustable. The suspension hook


21


has a long supporting arm


211


, which can be inserted into a folded flap of the curtain to support the curtain. The moving hook


22


moves along the moving arm


212


downward but not moves upward so as to position the curtain. The drawback of this conventional curtain hook is that the curtain hook


2


has to be inserted into the folded flap of the curtain manually. If cleaning or washing of the curtain is needed, the curtain hook


2


has to be removed. This is a time-consuming and laborious.




SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION




Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a combination-type curtain hook, which mitigates the drawbacks of curtain being not adjustable in height or the curtain hook being unloadable for cleaning/washing purposes.




Yet a further object of the present invention is to provide a combination-type curtain hook, wherein the curtain hook comprises a stitching strap having one side being mounted with a plurality of protruded blocks as a sliding rail, and a moving hook having a hook arm and a pair of protruded arms, such that the protruded arms can be positioned on the gap formed between two neighboring protruded blocks.




Still another object of the present invention is to provide a combination-type curtain hook, wherein the moving hook is engaged to the protruded blocks positioned on the stitching strap.




An aspect of the present invention is to provide a combination-type curtain hook having a stitching strap and a moving hook, characterized in that the stitching strap includes a stitching piece having one side being mounted with a plurality of protruded blocks being spaced apart to form a sliding rail, and the other side of the stitching piece is stitched to the folded flap of a curtain, and the moving hook including a pair of protruded arms at one side thereof is engageable with the protruded block and the protruded arms are positioned at the gap formed between each neighboring protruded blocks, thereby the sliding hook slides up and down along the protruded blocks, achieving the positioning and height adjustment of the curtain.




Other object and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the following description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawing.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT




Referring to

FIG. 3

, there is shown a combination-type curtain hook


3


comprising a stitching strap


31


and a moving hook


32


. One side of the stitching strap


31


is provided with a plurality of protruded blocks


312


being formed into a sliding rail. The stitching strap


31


is made from cotton cloth or artificial fiber cloth and the protruded blocks


312


are made from plastic or stainless steel material. The plurality of the protruded blocks


312


are spaced apart and a gap


313


is formed between two neighboring protruded blocks


312


. The moving hook


32


which is in engagement with the protruded blocks


312


includes a pair of protruded arms


323


for slidably mounting to the protruded blocks


312


and a hook arm


322


both being positioned onto a moving frame


321


. The length of the protruded arm


323


is about the wide of the gap


313


. Thus, as shown in

FIG. 4

, when the moving hook


32


is in engagement with the protruded blocks


312


of the stitching strap


31


, the moving frame


321


is framed at the protruded blocks


312


. When the moving frame


321


moves along the protruded blocks


312


until the protruded arms


323


is positioned at the gap


313


, the top end of the protruded arm


323


urges the bottom face


314


of the protruded blocks


312


, and the moving hook


32


will not be able to move further, i.e., the hook


32


is positioned at the stitching strap


31


. As the protruded arm


323


is located at the top of the moving frame


321


, when the moving hook


32


is pushed downward, the protruded arm


323


will be extended to move downward along the protruded blocks, and the moving hook


32


can stop at the required position. Thus, the required height of the curtain can be adjusted and positioned.




As shown in

FIG. 4

, the stitching strap


31


is stitched to the curtain, and the moving hook


32


is engaged to the protruded block


312


. Thus, the curtain can be unloaded for cleaning or washing without removing the curtain hook as that of the conventional curtain hooks structure.




As shown in

FIG. 5

, when the protruded block


315


is made into a trapezoid shape, the protruded arms


324


have to be mounted at the inner wall of the moving frame


321


. When the moving hook


32


is engaged with the trapezoid protruded blocks


315


, as shown in

FIG. 6

, the protruded arms


324


move along the protruded blocks


315


until the arms


324


urge the bottom face


316


of the protruded block


315


. Thus the moving hook


32


is positioned. As shown in

FIG. 7

, the protruded blocks


315


can be formed into a continuous block as a sliding rail


317


without formation of gaps. The moving frame


321


is in engagement with the sliding rail


317


and moves up and down. The protruded arm


324


urges the cleave


318


of the sliding rail


317


and the moving frame


321


is stationery. Thus, the objective of positioning or height adjustment of curtain is achieved.




In application, as shown in

FIG. 8

, the curtain hook of the present invention can be directly stitched to the curtain or hooked onto the moving rings (not shown) on the curtain rail (not shown).




While the invention has been described with respect to preferred embodiments, it will be clear to those skilled in the art that modifications and improvements may be made to the invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Therefore, the invention is not to be limited by the specific illustrative embodiment, but only by the scope of the appended claims.
