Device to make and keep waved pleats for drapery

Abstract

A device to make and keep natural waved pleats for a drapery is comprised of a long thin flexible matter and some linkups. The long flexible matter may be a chain, and it may be a rope too, etc, and a linkup may be a keyring, a buckle or a tie, etc. The linkup may be fixed at any position of the long flexible matter. Generally, the drapery is comprised of a fabric, hooks, slide matters and a rod. The fabric is hanged into the slide matters with the hooks, and the slide matters can slide along the rod. So, we can draw the drapery by moving the slide matters. If we arrange the slide matters at equal interval along the rod and join the long flexible matter to the slide matters with the linkups correspondingly, and the equal interval between the slide matters be controlled by the device. With the device, the drapery with wider fabric than the rod should not become plane, but lively and finished with the natural waved pleats. Also, we can adjust position of the linkups along the long flexible matter to fit any size of window and many types of the drapery. Further, we can easier do a nice drapery by ourselves only hemming a piece of rectangle fabric without pleating with a pleating machine, and said device will help us make and keep the natural waved pleats.
