CA 2527709
A window cover such as a blind is disclosed which has draw cords (50, 250) which are pulled to open and close the blind. A coupling member (52, 100, 260) is provided and has two parts which separate when a load is applied to the cord to prevent a strangling hazard if a child becomes entangled in the cord. A spring (220) or elastic band (270) forming a load take up member is provided to prevent unwanted separation of the coupling member (52, 100, 260) if a short duration load is applied to the coupling member such as maybe occur if the blind is improperly opened or closed or is allowed to drop under its own weight.
L'invention concerne un couvre-fenêtre, tel qu'un store, comprenant des cordons de traction (50, 250) que l'on tire pour ouvrir et fermer le store. On utilise un élément d'accouplement (52, 100, 260) comportant deux parties qui se séparent lorsqu'une charge est appliquée sur le cordon de manière à prévenir tout risque de strangulation si un enfant se prend dans le cordon. Un ressort (220) ou une bande élastique (270) formant un élément d'absorption de charge est utilisé pour prévenir une séparation indésirable de l'élément d'accouplement (52, 100, 260) lorsqu'une charge de courte durée est appliquée sur ledit élément, comme c'est le cas, par exemple, lorsque le store est ouvert ou fermé de manière incorrecte ou libéré de façon à s'abaisser sous son propre poids.
