ABSTRACT:
The window shade assembly has a headrail and a bottomrail that are spaced from one another and has window shade material provided therebetween. The window shade assembly has one or more cords traveling through the headrail and through the bottomrail. A first end of each cord is accessible to an operator and a second end of each cord is connected to one of a pair of transfer plates. A pair of brackets is also provided, each having a channel running therethrough. The transfer plates and channels are sized and configured so that the transfer plates are engageable and disengageable with a respective bracket through the channel of that bracket. The transfer plates and channels are also sized and configured so that the transfer plates are rotatably held within the brackets when the transfer plates are inserted within the channels. The bottomrail is raisable and lowerable through manual movement of the bottomrail once the transfer plates are engaged with the brackets, such that the cords act as guide cords for the bottomrail and shade. The bottomrail is also raisable and lowerable by drawing the cords into and out of the headrail once the transfer plates are disengaged from the brackets.
