ABSTRACT:
Combined pulley housing and end gate construction for a traverse rod. For application to a slotted traverse rod, there is provided a pulley housing receivable and fastenable within such traverse rod. Said pulley housing is arranged for the support of cord pulleys in any desired manner and arrangement. Said pulley housing also supports a gate which positions drapery supporting means at the end of the rod and closes the slot to prevent the escape of hangers positioned therewithin when the drapery is retracted. The gate is preferably mounted for pivoting on an axis substantially transverse to the slot and in one embodiment contains a pocket which fits over the end hanger for holding it in a predetermined position in said slot and with respect to the rod. The gate beyond such pocket lies closely adjacent, or in, said slot and includes snap means engageable with an edge of said slot for retaining the gate in this closed position and thereby closing said slot to prevent escape of hangers therefrom when the draperies are retracted. The gate may, however, be easily opened for removal of hangers from said slot or for insertion of additional hangers into said slot.
