Curtain Bracket Systems and Methods of Use

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a curtain bracket system designed for easy installation and adjustable support for hanging curtains. The bracket is comprised of a hollow cubical or rectangular piece that forms a stable base, with various supporting structures to securely hold a rod or curtain in place. The system features a mounting face, preferably utilizing hook and loop tape adhesives for a tool-free setup and potential repositioning without damage to the supporting wall. The system is versatile in that it accommodates rods and curtains of different sizes and varying weights. This curtain bracket system simplifies the installation process and promotes aesthetic integration with home décor.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A bracket comprising:
 a hollow piece, the hollow piece having four sides;   a planar piece extending from the hollow piece; and   a mounting face on one of the four sides of the hollow piece.   
     
     
         2 . The bracket of  claim 1  wherein the hollow piece is a hollow rectangular piece. 
     
     
         3 . The bracket of  claim 1  further comprising a curved piece extending from the planar piece. 
     
     
         4 . The bracket of  claim 1  wherein the hollow piece is a hollow cubical piece. 
     
     
         5 . The bracket of  claim 1  further comprising two indentations located on one of the four sides of the hollow piece. 
     
     
         6 . The bracket of  claim 5  further comprising a mounting face in between the two indentations. 
     
     
         7 . The bracket of  claim 6  further comprising a mounting adhesive on the mounting face. 
     
     
         8 . The bracket of  claim 7  wherein the mounting adhesive comprises at least one of a hook tape, a loop tape, or an adhesive strip. 
     
     
         9 . The bracket of  claim 1  further comprising an aperture on the planar piece. 
     
     
         10 . The bracket of  claim 1  wherein the planar piece extends from the hollow piece perpendicularly to a front face of the four sides. 
     
     
         11 . The bracket of  claim 1  wherein the planar piece extends from the hollow piece parallel to a front face of the four sides. 
     
     
         12 . A bracket system comprising:
 a bracket;   a curtain panel; and   a wall   the bracket comprising a hollow piece, the hollow piece having four sides;   the bracket further comprising a planar piece extending from the hollow piece   the bracket further comprising a mounting face on one of the four sides of the hollow piece; and   wherein the curtain panel is mounted to the wall by the bracket.   
     
     
         13 . The bracket system of  claim 12  wherein the hollow piece is at least one of a hollow rectangular piece or a hollow cubical piece. 
     
     
         14 . The bracket system of  claim 12  further comprising a rod supported by the planar piece, wherein the curtain panel hangs from the rod. 
     
     
         15 . The bracket system of  claim 12  wherein the planar piece is a front piece extending from the hollow piece perpendicularly to a top side of the four sides. 
     
     
         16 . The bracket system of  claim 15  further comprising a curved piece connected to the front piece, the curved piece preventing a rod from which the curtain panel hangs. 
     
     
         17 . The bracket system of  claim 12  wherein the curtain panel is mounted to the wall by the bracket without using a rod. 
     
     
         18 . The bracket system of  claim 12  wherein the bracket is mounted to the wall by a hook and loop tape adhesive system. 
     
     
         19 . A method for installing a curtain bracket system, the method comprising:
 attaching one of a hook tape or a loop tape to a mounting face of a bracket;   attaching an opposite one of the hook tape or the loop tape to a wall;   pressing the mounting face of the bracket against the wall to engage the hook tape and the loop tape, thereby mounting the bracket to the wall; and   hanging a curtain panel from the bracket.   
     
     
         20 . The method of  claim 19  further comprising placing a rod on the bracket and hanging the curtain panel from the rod, wherein the hook tape engaged with the loop tape supports a weight of the bracket, a weight of the rod, and a weight of the curtain panel.
