ABSTRACT:
The present invention is a link adapted to connect facing vanes of a vertical blind. Each of the links is comprised of an articulated arm engaged to said vanes by a cleat pivotally engaged to each end thereof. The articulated arm is comprised of first and second limbs, the first limb having a channel therein and the second limb having means to pivotally and slideably engage the channel. In a preferred embodiment, the channel is formed by an elongate loop extending from an end of the first limb, and the engagement means comprises a pin extending from the free end of the second limb, adapted to slideably engage the loop. The articulated arm is somewhat longer than the width of a single vane, in order to minimize the possibility of the edge of the vane becoming entangled in the joint between the arms.
