Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to an improvement of a curtain rail box.

In recent years, curtain rail boxes made by extrusion molding of aluminum, synthetic resin, etc. have become popular even in general houses. This curtain rail box is an elongated box with a decorative finish that opens downward, and has a longitudinal rail formed on the underside of the top plate, and a number of runners slidably held on the rail to hold the curtains. The upper side of the hanging curtain is covered with a concealing plate on the front. Such boxes are effective in enhancing the atmosphere of a room when combined with the color and pattern of the curtain material, and are inexpensive and easy to assemble, so they have become widely popular as mentioned above. Since they are commercialized as fixed-sized products that match the dimensions of various window frames, they are generally bulky and therefore difficult to transport by passenger car, making it difficult for consumers to purchase and easily install them themselves. It is an undeniable fact that this is practically difficult, and in the end it is left to specialists, which cancels out the advantage of being cheap, and that this is a cause of slowing down the growth in demand.

The present invention was developed in view of the above, and aims to improve transportability by making it foldable, thereby further increasing the versatility of this type of curtain rail box.

An embodiment of the present invention will be explained based on the accompanying drawings. Fig. 1 is a partially cutaway perspective view of a typical embodiment of the invention, and Fig. 2 is a partially enlarged plan view of the same embodiment in a state in which it is folded for transportation. , FIG. 3 is a partially cutaway exploded perspective view of another embodiment. That is, the present invention includes a mounting plate 11 at the rear end, a rail board 12 attached to the front of the mounting plate 11 and having curtain rails 121, 121 formed on the lower surface, and a concealing board 12 hanging from the front end of the board 12. A horizontally long curtain rail box 1 including at least a plate 13, which is divided into two box bodies 10, 1 in the longitudinal direction.
0, and one decorative film 2 is adhered to the front surfaces of the concealment plates 13, 13 of the element bodies 10, 10, respectively, so that both the element bodies 1
A curtain rail box characterized in that a close mating relationship between 0 and 10 is maintained, and both element bodies 10 and 10 are foldable with respect to each other around the connecting point O by the decorative film 2. be. Fig. 1 shows the process of unfolding the above-mentioned elements 10, 10 from the folded state (see Fig. 2) in the direction of the arrow a centering on the connection point O, and setting them to the normal mounting state as shown by the dashed line. . This curtain rail box 1 is manufactured by extrusion molding of synthetic resin, and side covers 3, 3, which are also molded from synthetic resin, are attached to both left and right ends, and
A number of runners (not shown) are slidably held on the rails 121, 121 so that a curtain (not shown) can be hung thereon. The outer surface, except for the concealing plate 13 and the side covers 3, 3, is covered with a decorative film with a wood grain pattern, etc., on the other hand, the concealing plate 1 of the element body 10, which is divided into two parts.
A single decorative film 2 is attached to the front surfaces of the decorative film 3 and 13 to connect both elements 10 and 10, and at both left and right ends of the decorative film 2, the side Covers 3, 3 are covered. The connection of the element bodies 10, 10 by the decorative film 2 is such that when the two parts are made straight, the divided end surfaces of both sides closely match each other. are connected to the side covers 3, 3 at both ends.

The procedure for transporting and installing the curtain rail box 1 having the above structure will be briefly described.The box 1 manufactured at a factory is folded in two and packaged as shown in FIG. At this time, in order to prevent creases from forming on the folded portion of the decorative film 2, appropriate spacers 4, 4 are interposed between the overlapping surfaces of the double elements 10, 10 to make the bent portion a curved surface. A release paper 21 is attached in advance to the curved surface to which the adhesive is applied. The overall length of this type of box for general houses does not exceed 4 m, and therefore, when folded in half, the length is at most 2 m, so it can be easily transported in an ordinary passenger car. A general consumer bought this Box 1, which was folded in half and packed compactly.
If you take it home and install it yourself, as mentioned above, the packaging is extremely compact, so you can easily transport it in your own car, and you can also smoothly bring it into narrow entrances, so there is no hassle. It can be transported to the installation location without any trouble. Then, the package was unpacked and the spacers 4, 4 were removed, and the release paper 21 was removed, and one of the element bodies 10 was unfolded into a straight shape as shown in FIG. 1, and the release paper 21 of the decorative film 2 was removed. The portions are firmly pressed and adhered to the concealing plates 13, 13 surfaces of both element bodies 10, 10. At this time, both elementary bodies 10,1
In order to ensure that the divided end surfaces of 0 come into close contact with each other stably, both are fixed together with the attached fasteners or joined with adhesive. The thus prepared curtain rail box 1 is lifted to a predetermined mounting position, the mounting plate 11 is brought into contact with the wall surface, and the mounting plate 11 is fixed to the wall surface with an appropriate fastener to complete the installation. do.

In this way, the series of operations from transportation to installation can be carried out very easily even by general users, as the packaging is compact and installation is extremely simple. Since it is manufactured by a conventional method, it is lightweight and inexpensive, and these factors combine to make it extremely affordable for general users, further increasing the versatility of this type of curtain rail box.

FIG. 3 shows another embodiment in which the side covers 3, 3 are separated so that the length can be adjusted by cutting. Therefore, the decorative film 2 is manufactured with non-adhesive parts 22, 22 left at both left and right ends, and a release paper is pasted on the back side of the decorative film 2, and the installer cuts the base bodies 10, 10 to appropriate dimensions. After attaching the side covers 3, 3 to the cut end faces thereof, the non-adhering portions 22, 22 are bent to cover the outer surfaces of the side covers 3, 3. With this, the side covers 3, 3 will be attached later, but since the attachment boundary is covered by the film 2, even general users can easily attach them without degrading the appearance. Like the above embodiment, this is also highly versatile and is preferably adopted.

The decorative film 2 attached to the concealing plates 13, 13 is made wider than the concealing plates 13, 13, and is made to protrude from the lower edge of the concealing plates 13, 13 by a certain width. , 10 are unfolded in a straight line, the overhanging portion is folded inward to form the concealing plate 13,
If the lower end surface of the decorative film 2 is covered, the lower edge of the decorative film 2 will not be visible, thereby further improving the appearance. In addition, if the lower end surfaces of the concealing plates 13, 13 are made into sloped surfaces that rise backward, the border line to which the decorative film 2 is attached becomes less noticeable, contributing to an improved appearance, and these can be added to the above configuration and adopted as appropriate. It is something that Furthermore, it goes without saying that the overall shape of the curtain rail box is not limited to the illustrated example, and can be appropriately adopted without departing from the scope of the present invention.

As mentioned above, the curtain rail box of the present invention is made foldable by means of the decorative film that is mutually attached to both elements, so when both elements are made straight, the divided end faces are in close contact with each other. It is extremely easy to use, since the border is covered and the appearance is not damaged, and only a partial decorative film needs to be pasted, and the packaging for transportation is compact.
It is easy for general users to purchase, and furthermore, it is easy to install, so users can decorate their rooms according to their own motifs, greatly contributing to the versatility of this type of curtain rail box. It is something to do.
