ABSTRACT:
A window covering combining the appearance of a pleated shade and a mini-blind, which in the open position resembles a mini-blind and which in the closed position resembles a pleated shade. The desired effect can be achieved by utilizing various combinations of drums, tilt rods and tilters in a mini-blind assemblage in combination with a ladder system comprising two oppositely moving ladders, namely an A ladder and a B ladder.
A means to further diminish light transmission between adjacent slats, when the blind is in the closed position is also disclosed.
The use of an optional double rail construction applicable with any permutation of drums and tilt rods is set forth.
