With further reference to FIG. 3, the torsional spring 91 is mounted securely around the spindle 27 in the mounting jacket 33 and has two free ends respectively abutted the abutting edges 331, 332 of the mounting jacket 33.

With reference to FIGS. 1, 2 and 4, the hooking device 50 is mounted securely on the side of the window frame below the fixing device 10, the moving device 20 and the rotating device 30. Preferably, the hooking device 50 has a casing 51 and a rotating panel 52. The casing 51 is mounted securely on the side of the window frame and has a top, a chamber and an opening. The top of the casing 51 faces the fixing device 10, the moving device 20 and the rotating device 30. The chamber is formed in the casing 51. The opening is formed through the top of the casing 51 and communicates with the chamber of the casing 51. The rotating panel 52 is rotatably mounted in the chamber of the casing 51 and has a periphery and multiple ball recesses 521. The ball recesses 521 are formed in the periphery of the rotating panel 52 at intervals and each ball recess 521 has a shape corresponding to the shape of the ball recess 311 of the rotating disk 31.

The bead cord 40 is endless, is mounted between the rotating device 30 and the hooking device 50 and has a cord and multiple balls 41. The cord is mounted around rotating disk 31 and the rotating panel 51 via the lower openings 26 and the opening of the casing 51. The balls 41 are mounted securely around the cord of the bead cord 40 at intervals and are selectively mounted in the ball recesses 311, 521 of the rotating disk 31 and the rotating panel 52.

In assembling, with reference to FIGS. 1, 2 and 5, the fixing device 10, the moving device 20, the rotating device 30 and the bead cord 40 are connected to the first mounting frame 61 and the first mounting frame 61 is mounted securely on a side of a window frame to enable the connecting bushing 92 to mount securely in one end of the roller 70. The second mounting frame 62 is mounted securely on the side of the window frame and is rotatably connected to the other end of the roller 70.

At this time, the hooking device 50 is pulled downward to enable the rotating device 30 and the moving device 20 to move downward relative to the fixing device 10 by the bead cord 40 that engages the rotating disk 31. Then, the limiting inner sidewalls of the positioning recess 23 will move downward relative to the positioning mount 13 along the limiting faces of the positioning mount 13 to make the positioning protrusions of the positioning mount 13 abut the top end of the positioning recess 23.

When the positioning protrusions of the positioning mount 13 abut the top end of the positioning recess 23, the hooking device 50 is fixed securely on the side of the window frame to enable the moving device 20 to move downward relative to the fixing device 10 and to enable the stopping recesses 321 of the stopping disc 32 to be separated from the stopping protrusion 122 of the stopping arm 12 as shown in FIG. 5 and the flexible element will be compressed between the annular flange 24, 24B, 24C, 24D and the reset mount 14, 14B, 14C, 14D as shown in FIGS. 5 and 7 to 9. In the above mentioned condition, the stopping recesses 321 of the stopping disc 32 disengage from the stopping protrusion 122 of the stopping arm 12, and the bead cord 40 can be pulled downward to rotate the rotating device 30 relative to the moving device 20 to draw the blind cloth of the roller 70 by the engagement between the balls 41 and the ball recesses 311, 521 of the rotating disk 31 and the rotating panel 52. In addition, the bead cord 40 is held between the rotating device 30 and the hooking device 50 and this can prevent child from easily tiding by the bead cord 40.

Furthermore, with reference to FIGS. 1, 3 and 6, when the bead cord 40 is separated from the hooking device 50, the pressed flexible element between the annular flange 24, 24B, 24C, 24D and the reset mount 14, 14B, 14C, 14D will push the moving mount 20 and the rotating device 30 to move upward relative to the fixing device 10 and to enable one of the stopping recesses 321 of the stopping disc 32 to engage the stopping protrusion 122 of the stopping arm 12. Then, the separated bead cord 40 cannot rotate the rotating device 30 relative to the fixing device 10 and the blind cloth of the roller 70 cannot be drawn by the bead cord 40 and this can provide a safe operation to the roller blind when the bead cord 40 is not fixed by the hooking device 50. Therefore, even if the hooking device 50 is broken or invalid or is not mounted on a desired location, the bead cord 40 cannot be rotated and the blind cloth of the roller 70 cannot be drawn relative to the window frame by the bead cord 40 and this can improve the safety of the operation of the roller blind.

During the above mentioned operation of the safety assembly for a roller blind in accordance with the present invention, the limiting inner sidewalls of the positioning recess 23 respectively abut the limiting faces of the positioning mount 13 and the height of the positioning recess 23 is longer than that of the positioning mount 13, the moving device 20 can be kept from rotating relative to the rotating device 30 and the moving device 20 is allowed to move upward or downward relative to the fixing device 10. In addition, the blind cloth of the roller 70 can be drawn by the bead cord 40 with the engagement between the balls 41 of the bead cord 40 and the balls recesses 311 of the rotating disk 31 and the rotating panel 52 is rotatably connected to the casing 51 and has multiple ball recesses 521 engaging the balls 41 of the bead cord 40 and the bead cord 40 can be operated conveniently to draw the blind cloth of the roller 70 by pulling the bead cord 40.

Furthermore, the torsional spring 91 is mounted securely around and abuts securely the spindle 27 and the moving device 20 is movably connected to the fixing device 10, the torsional spring 91 cannot be rotated with the rotating device 30 without an external force. When the bead cord 40 is pulled to expand the blind cloth of the roller 70, the rotating device 30 is rotated with the bead cord 40, the user's pulling force is larger than the pressing force between the first abutting edge 331 of the mounting jacket 33 and the corresponding free end of the torsional spring 91, and this will make the torsional spring 91 loosening and being released from the spindle 27 and rotating relative to the spindle 27. Then, the blind cloth of the roller 70 can be drawn down by the bead cord 40.

In addition, when the user pulls the bead cord 40 to draw blind cloth of the roller 70 up at an opposite direction, the user's pulling force is larger than the pressing force between the second abutting edge 332 of the mounting jacket 33 and the corresponding free end of the torsional spring 91, and this will make the torsional spring 91 loosening and being released from the spindle 27 and rotating relative to the spindle 27. Then, the blind cloth of the roller 70 can be drawn up by the bead cord 40. Furthermore, when the blind cloth of the roller 70 is set at any height relative to the window frame, the elastic force of the torsional spring 91 is large enough to against the weight of the blind cloth of the roller 70 and this can prevent the blind cloth of the roller 70 from moving down in unused.

Even though numerous characteristics and advantages of the present invention have been set forth in the foregoing description, together with details of the structure and features of the invention, the disclosure is illustrative only. Changes may be made in the details, especially in matters of shape, size, and arrangement of parts within the principles of the invention to the full extent indicated by the broad general meaning of the terms in which the appended claims are expressed.
