ABSTRACT:
The present disclosure relates to a safety device for retaining the cords of a Venetian blind, comprising two integrally molded upper and lower covers in the shape of trapezoid having a long protruding edge at the longer side of each of the trapezoid-shaped covers and a protruding edge at the top side of each thereof. Inside the upper part of both the upper and lower covers are disposed a long protruding post and a splitted column hollowed inside, whereas the lower part of them are an inverted U-shaped square column attached at its bottom to an elastic stop plate amputated at its bottom with serrated teeth and a pressing block slanting sidewardly. In operation, the cords (either two, three, or four) can be passed through the cord hole of the protruding edge and fixed by the serrated teeth of the elastic stop plate of the inverted U-shaped square member in a space between the elastic stop plate and the fending edge in the assembling of the two upper and lower covers when the long protruding posts are inserted to the hollow space of the splitted columns and the sidewardly slanting pressing blocks are pressed onto the elastic stop plates forcing the elastic stop plates to abut against the fending edges. The safety device is easy to assemble and convenient for the adjustment of the cords into equal length. Besides, it can prevent a child from strangling when the child's neck gets caught between the cords.
