Description
FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of the curtain adjustment technology, and more particularly to a horizontal adjustment device for a curtain and an electric curtain.


BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE

The traditional electric roller blind is a motorized roller blind mechanism powered by a tubular motor, and it needs only to switch the power switch to operate, which is easy to operate and works quietly and smoothly. Therefore, it becomes an upgraded product of the manual roller blind. In the installation process of the existing electric roller blinds, there is no device for adjusting the horizontal level of the reel, so once the curtain box or the installation bracket is not installed horizontally resulting in the left and right ends of the roll tube not being at the same level, the curtain box or the installation bracket needs to be disassembled again for adjustment. Otherwise, the curtain fabric will be unevenly retracted on the curtain rod, and the curtain fabric will move to the lower end of the curtain rod, resulting in the phenomenon of curtain wrinkles or incomplete shading (as shown in FIG. 6 of the specification). Therefore, a curtain horizontal adjustment device is needed. However, the adjustment mechanism in the existing adjustable curtain horizontal adjustment device is directly installed on the end of the curtain rod, which occupies more space. In addition, when it comes to narrow installation areas such as corners, the installation cannot be embodied or the shading area is insufficient (as shown in FIG. 5 of the specification). Patents CN205605070U and U.S. Pat. No. 16,752,185 disclose a level regulator and a leveler for a window covering respectively, and the adjustment mechanisms of the two patents are arranged at the end of the curtain rod.
