ABSTRACT:
The combination of a window covering and anti-flapping device for preventing flapping of the window covering against the window or window casing. The anti-flapping device comprises a U-shaped clip having a base and a pair of legs extending from the base. The clip is preferably fabricated from a flexible plastic material such that the inner surfaces of the clip legs are biased towards one another and are adapted to releasably engage the lower edge of a window covering, such as the lower edge or bottom hem portion of a window shade or baseboard of a venetian blind whereby the clip legs snap lockingly engage the window covering bottom edge. In one form of the invention the clip carries a resilient cushion contoured to be matingly received on the outer portion of one leg of the clip and retained there by means of a suitable adhesive. The clip is attached to the edge of the window covering such that the cushion is positioned between the clip and the window. In a second embodiment of the invention the resilient cushion is attached to the base of the clip and positioned between a venetian blind, which carries the clip, and the window. Other forms of the invention provide various means for snap lockingly securing the projecting ends of the clip legs to secure the clip to the window covering.
