The present invention provides a flexible and force-variable curtain fabric retractable device, including a hollow metal rod 1 for wrapping a curtain fabric and a fixing mounting member 2 mounted on both left and right ends of the hollow metal rod 1, when in use, fixing mounting member 2 can be directly mounted at the top of the window with screws; one end of the hollow metal rod 1 is inlaid and installed with a flexible force-variable elastic structure, and the other end of the hollow metal rod 1 is inlaid and installed with a driven structure, both ends of the hollow metal rod 1 are rotatably connected with a fixing mounting member 2 through a flexible force-variable elastic structure and a driven structure respectively; the flexible force-variable elastic structure includes a central shaft 3, a spring mounting base 4 and a volute spiral spring 5, one end of the central shaft 3 is detachably mounted with a fixing mounting member 2, a spring mounting base 4 is rotatably inserted on a central shaft 3, and at least one spring mounting groove 6 are disposed on the spring mounting base 4, the volute spiral spring 5 is installed in the spring mounting groove 6, the central end of the volute spiral spring 5 is connected with the central shaft 3, and the free end of the volute spiral spring 5 is in contact with the inner wall of the hollow metal rod 1. Before assembly of the flexible force-variable elastic structure, the volute spiral spring 5 is bound with a binding rope tied at the outside; the volute spiral spring 5, central shaft 3 and spring mounting base 4 are combined into a separate mounting accessory. When assembling, after the spring mounting base 4 is aligned with the hollow metal rod 1 and the binding rope is shortened, the entire flexible force-variable elastic structure is inserted into the hollow metal rod 1.
The present invention cleverly utilizes the interaction force to realize the retracting and releasing functions; when the curtain fabric rises, the volute spiral spring 5 is released, and when the curtain fabric drops, the volute spiral spring 5 compresses to produce an interaction force between the volute spiral spring 5 and the hollow metal rod 1. During use, by simply pushing or pulling the curtain fabric to generate proper power, the volute spiral spring 5 generates deformation to exert a pressing force on the hollow metal rod 1, and the hollow metal rod 1 can rotate quietly and softly, and stop the intended position accurately, stably and easily without any rebound. The invention can realize the retraction of the curtain fabric by directly pulling the end of the curtain fabric by hand, without requiring the setting of a hand pulling cord or an electric lifting structure. It can effectively solve the defects of instability and high cost for operation and control for the existing products.
