ABSTRACT:
A louvered blind (10) including an outer frame (12) and a plurality of louvers (14) mounted within the frame is disclosed. Each louver includes a removable cloth shade (26) and an improved support assembly (28) for supporting the shade within the frame. Each shade includes front and rear slat-receiving channels (33,35). Each support assembly includes front and rear support slats (38,40) that are each removably received within one of the slat-receiving channels (33,35) and a pair of louver caps (42,44) that are attached within the frame. Each louver cap includes a pair of elongated mounting slots (58,60) formed therein that receive the ends of the support slats and that permit the distance between the support slats to be selectively adjusted for facilitating reattachment of the shades to the support assemblies after the shades have been cleaned.
