Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to a roller blind device, especially to a light adjusting roller blind device that can be easily and conveniently mounted upon a window frame.

2. Description of the Prior Art(s)

A roller blind device is mounted upon a window and is used for decoration, heat insulation, blocking sunlight, and providing privacy. Due to practicality of the roller blind device, the roller blind device is popular and is widely used. Nowadays, the roller blind device is packaged for sale in a store, so that a user can buy the roller blind device and mount the roller blind device on a window frame of the window or on a wall beside the window by himself. Since the roller blind device is provided for the user to do the mounting by himself, the roller blind device has to be capable of easy mounting.

With reference to FIGS. 18A, 18B, and 19, a conventional light adjusting roller blind device comprises a support assembly 60, a rolling mechanism 61, a roller 65, a blind 62, a lower retaining rod 63, and a bottom retaining weight 64.

The support assembly 60 includes a first support 601, a second support 602, an upper retaining rod 603, and a housing 604. The first support 601 and the second support 602 are disposed apart from each other. The upper retaining rod 603 is mounted between and on the first support 601 and the second support 602. The housing 604 is mounted between and on the first support 601 and the second support 602.

The rolling mechanism 61 is mounted on the first support 601 and includes a chain disk and a beaded cord 610. The beaded cord 610 is mounted around the chain disk and selectively drives the chain disk to rotate.

The roller 65 is mounted between and on the first support 601 and the second support 602, and is driven to rotate by the rolling mechanism 61.

The blind 62 has a first end edge, a second end edge, a folding portion 623, multiple transparent portions 621, and multiple light-blocking portions 622. The first end edge of the blind 62 is connected to and wrapped around the roller 65. The second end edge of the blind 62 is wrapped around the upper retaining rod 603 and protrudes out of the housing 604. The folding portion 623 is defined between the first end edge and the second end edge of the blind 62 and has an interior surface and an exterior surface. The transparent portions 621 and the light-blocking portions 622 are alternately arranged between the first end edge and the second end edge of the blind 62.

The lower retaining rod 63 is transversely mounted in the folding portion 623 of the blind 62 on the interior surface of the folding portion 623.

The bottom retaining weight 64 is mounted on the exterior surface of the folding portion 623 of the blind 62 and has a receiving recess 641 and an adjusting recess 642. The receiving recess 641 and the adjusting recess 642 are oppositely formed on the bottom retaining weight 64. The receiving recess 641 receives the folding portion 623 of the blind 62 and the lower retaining rod 63.

The beaded cord 610 of the rolling mechanism 61 is pulled to drive the chain disk to rotate. As the chain disk rotates, the roller 65 rotates as well to roll the blind 62 up or down. With the transparent portions 621 respectively aligning or mis-aligning with the light-blocking portions 622, light transmitted through the blind 62 can be adjusted.

With reference to FIGS. 18A to 20, a conventional method for mounting the conventional roller blind device comprises steps of:

(a) Mounting the conventional roller blind device upon a window frame via at least one fastening assembly.

(b) Inspecting light-blocking effect of the conventional roller blind device. The beaded cord 610 of the rolling mechanism 61 is pulled to roll the blind 62. When the lower retaining rod 63 aligns with a lower edge of the window frame, if the transparent portions 621 of the blind 62 respectively align with the light-blocking portions 622 of the blind 62, it means that the conventional roller blind device is properly mounted upon the window frame.

(c) Adjusting the blind 62 if the transparent portions 621 of the blind 62 respectively mis-align with the light-blocking portions 622 of the blind 62. The beaded cord 610 of the rolling mechanism 61 is pulled to roll up the blind 62 until the transparent portions 621 of the blind 62 respectively align with the light-blocking portions 622 of the blind 62. The bottom retaining weight 64 is detached from the folding portion 623 of the blind 62 and the lower retaining rod 63. The second end edge of the blind 62 is mounted into the adjusting recess 642 of the bottom retaining weight 64. Then the second end edge of the blind 62 is pulled away from the support assembly 60 for a specific distance via the bottom retaining weight 64. The bottom retaining weigh 64 is detached from the second end edge of the blind 62, and the bottom retaining weight 64 is mounted, via the receiving recess 641, on the folding portion 623 of the blind 62 and the lower retaining rod 63 again.

(d) Repeating the steps of inspecting the light-blocking effect of the conventional roller blind device and adjusting the blind 62 until the conventional roller blind device has been properly mounted upon the window frame.

However, the bottom retaining weight 64 has to be repeatedly detached from and attached to the folding portion 623 of the blind 62 and the second end edge of the blind 62 in order to process the steps of inspecting the light-blocking effect of the conventional roller blind device and adjusting the blind 62. Therefore, mounting the conventional roller blind device upon the window frame is troublesome. If the user pulls the second end edge of the blind 62 directly with hands rather than with the bottom retaining weight 64, the blind 62, which is soft, is very likely to become oblique and wrinkled.

To overcome the shortcomings, the present invention provides a light adjusting roller blind device and a method for mounting the same to mitigate or obviate the aforementioned problems.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The main objective of the present invention is to provide a light adjusting roller blind device and a method for mounting the same.

With reference to FIGS. 1 and 2, the blind assembly 40 is mounted between the side supporting brackets 13, 14 of the support assembly 10, and is connected to the driving assembly 20 and the adjusting mechanism 30. The blind assembly 40 includes a blind 41, a guiding rod 42, and a retaining weight 43.

With reference to FIGS. 1 to 3, the blind 41 has two opposite end edges, a folding portion 413, multiple transparent portions 411, and multiple light-blocking portions 412. One of the end edges of the blind 41 is connected to and wrapped around the roller 21 of the driving assembly 20. The other end edge of the blind 41 is connected to the alignment element 32 of the adjusting mechanism 30. The folding portion 413 is defined between the end edges of the blind 41 and hangs below the end edges of the blind 41. The folding portion 413 has an interior surface and an exterior surface. The transparent portions 411 and the light-blocking portions 412 are alternately arranged between the end edges of the blind 41.

The guiding rod 42 is transversely mounted in the folding portion 413 of the blind 41 on the interior surface of the blind 41. The retaining weight 43 is mounted on the exterior surface of the folding portion 413 of the blind 41 and holds the guiding rod 42.

When the beaded cord 222 of the rolling mechanism 22 is pulled to drive the chain disk 221 and the roller 21 to rotate, the blind 41 is rolled up or down. With the transparent portions 411 respectively aligning or mis-aligning with the light-blocking portions 412, light transmitted through the blind 41 can be adjusted.

With reference to FIG. 7, the method for mounting the light adjusting roller blind device comprises the following steps.

(a) Mounting the light adjusting roller blind device upon a window frame 50 (S1). With reference to FIGS. 2 and 8 to 10, the support assembly 10 of the light adjusting roller blind device is mounted upon the window frame 50. Accordingly, the driving assembly 20, the adjusting mechanism 30, and the blind assembly 40 that are mounted on the support assembly 10 are also mounted upon the window frame 50.

(b) Inspecting light-blocking effect of the light adjusting roller blind device by rolling down the blind 41 of the blind assembly 40 until the folding portion 413 of the blind 41 aligns with a lower edge of the window frame 50 (S2).

With reference to FIGS. 2, 4, 8, and 10 to 12, the beaded cord 222 of the rolling mechanism 22 of the driving assembly 20 is pulled to drive the chain disk 221 and the roller 21 of the driving assembly 20 to rotate, and to roll the blind 41. When the folding portion 413 of the blind 41 aligns with the lower edge of the window frame 50, if the transparent portions 411 of the blind 41 respectively align with the light-blocking portions 412 of the blind 41, it means that the light adjusting roller blind device is properly mounted upon the window frame 50 (S4).

As shown in FIG. 11, as the transparent portions 411 of the blind 41 respectively align with the light-blocking portions 412 of the blind 41, the light cannot transmit through the blind 41.

(c) Adjusting the blind 41 if the transparent portions 411 of the blind 41 respectively mis-align with the light-blocking portions 412 of the blind 41 (S5).

With reference to FIGS. 2, 4, 8, 12, and 13, the beaded cord 222 of the rolling mechanism 22 of the driving assembly 20 is pulled to drive the chain disk 221 and the roller 21 of the driving assembly 20 to rotate, and to roll the blind 41 until the transparent portions 411 of the blind 41 respectively align with the light-blocking portions 412 of the blind 41. A first distance defined between the folding portion 413 of the blind 41 and the lower edge of the window frame 50 is X.

With further reference to FIGS. 3, 5A, 7, and 14 to 16, then the second holding part 35 is detached from the first holding part 34 of the adjusting mechanism 30 to release the first rope 36 of the adjusting mechanism 30 and to roll down the blind 41 of the blind assembly 40 until the folding portion 413 of the blind 41 aligns with the lower edge of the window frame 50. Thus, the slider 33 can slide between the first side supporting bracket 13 of the support assembly 10 and the main penetrable portion 311 that is disposed adjacent to the first side supporting bracket 13.

As shown in FIG. 6B, since the overlapping segments 371, 381, 391 of the second rope 37, the third rope 38, and the enhancing rope 39 are equal in length, when the slider 33 slides between the first side supporting bracket 13 and the main penetrable portion 311 to release the first rope 36 for a second distance Y, the alignment element 32 can be stably lowered by the second distance Y and the blind 41 is kept smooth without becoming oblique.

Then the second holding part 35 is attached to the first holding part 34 again to hold the first rope 36.

(d) Repeating the steps of inspecting the light-blocking effect of the light adjusting roller blind device and adjusting the blind 40 until the light adjusting roller blind device has been properly mounted upon the window frame 50.

Preferably, a first longitudinal length of each of the transparent portions 411 of the blind 41 is defined as P, and a second longitudinal length of each of the light-blocking portions 412 of the blind 41 is defined as Q. When the first longitudinal length P is longer than the second longitudinal length, the relationship between the first distance X, the second distance Y, the first longitudinal length P, and the second longitudinal length Q is Y=X<0.5(P+Q), wherein X, Y, P, and Q are of the same length unit.

With reference to FIG. 17, in a second preferred embodiment, the reference element 31A of the adjusting mechanism 30A of the light adjusting roller blind device has two additional penetrable portions 312A. The alignment element 32A of the adjusting mechanism 30A of the light adjusting roller blind device has two additional connecting portions 322A respectively corresponding in position to the additional penetrable portions 312A. The adjusting mechanism 30A has two enhancing ropes 39A respectively mounted through the additional penetrable portions 312A of the reference element 31A. The ends of each of the enhancing ropes 39A are respectively connected to a corresponding one of the additional connecting portions 322A of the alignment element 32A and the connection end 332A of the slider 33A. The overlapping segment 391A of the enhancing ropes 39A overlap the overlapping segments 371A, 381A of the second rope 37A and the third rope 38A, and are equal to the overlapping segments 371A, 381A of the second rope 37A and the third rope 38A in length. Preferably, the enhancing ropes 39A may be integrally formed as a single rope. Thus, with the second rope 37A, the third rope 38A, and the enhancing rope 39A, even the blind with increased transverse width can also be stably hung on the alignment element 32A.

The light adjusting roller blind device and the method for mounting the light adjusting roller blind device has the following advantages. With the adjusting mechanism 30 in the support assembly 10, a user can adjust the blind 41 by simply detaching the second holding part 35 from the first holding part 34 and then releasing the first rope 36. Since the overlapping segments 371, 381, 391, 391A of the second rope 37, the third rope 38, and the at least one enhancing rope 39, 39A are equal in length, the alignment element 32 as well as the blind 41 can be stably lowered along with the releasing of the first rope 36. Therefore, it is easy and convenient for the user to adjust the blind 41.

Moreover, as for the blind 41 with enlarged width and weight, the additional penetrable portions 312, 312A of the reference element 31, 31A, the additional connecting portions 322, 322A of the alignment element 32, 32A, and the enhancing rope 39 are helpful in providing additional support to stably hang the blind 41 on the alignment element 32, 32A below the reference element 31, 31A.
