ABSTRACT:
A carrier-positioning device for a vertical blind includes an end cover attached fixedly to an end of a headrail, and a positioning member connected fixedly to the end cover. The positioning member has a hook end including two hooks, each of which is formed with a vertical retaining slot that has a closed upper end and an open lower end and that engages a respective one of two wheel pins on two opposite sides of a carrier so as to prevent movement of the carrier within the headrail. An operable portion of the positioning member is connected fixedly to the hook end, and has an exposed section that is exposed within a space between two supporting walls of the headrail so that it can be pushed upwardly to remove the hooks from the wheel pins, thereby permitting separation of the carrier from the end cover.
