摘要：
A one-piece clamp assembly for a window covering is disclosed. The window covering consists of a left side portion and right side portion connected to a moveable hinge portion. The left side portion comprises a plurality of rounded extrusions and at least one vertical rounded extrusion that securely mates into a hole or slot on the right side portion. The left side portion further comprises extruded walls that mate with single and double spikes found on the right side portion. The extruded portions and mating spikes provide for a secure connection of the clamp assembly to the window covering. A connecting slot is placed on either the left or ride side portion, enabling the clamp assembly to fasten to a head rail fastener of a window covering.
权利要求：
Claims What is claimed: 1. A one-piece clamp assembly for securing a window covering comprising: a left side portion further comprising: a plurality of rounded extrusions; a plurality of spikes; a plurality of extruded walls; and a plurality of spike holes; a right side portion further comprising; a plurality of connecting holes to receive the rounded extrusions from the left side portion; a plurality of spike holes to receive the spikes from the left side portion; a plurality of receiving channels to receive the extruded walls of the left side portion; and a plurality of spikes to engage with the spike holes of the left side portion; and a hinge portion connecting the left side portion and right side portion; wherein the one-piece clamp assembly is made of a one-piece material; wherein the one-piece clamp assembly is configured to be in an open position and a closed position; wherein in the closed position, the rounded extrusions mate with the connecting holes, the extruded walls mate with the extruded channels and the spikes mate with the spike holes to form a secure connection, whereby the window covering is secured therein between the left side portion and the right side portion.
2. The clamp assembly of Claim 1 wherein the plurality of rounded extrusions further comprises a horizontal extrusion and a larger vertical extrusion.
3. The clamp assembly of Claim 2 wherein the plurality of rounded extrusions further comprises a left and right leg and a rounded head such that, when pinched, the head creates a rounded extrusion.
4. The clamp assembly of Claim 1 wherein the window covering is a window curtain or a vertical blind.
5. The clamp assembly of Claim 1 wherein the hinge portion further comprises a connecting slot configured to fasten the clamp assembly to a head rail fastener of the window covering.
6. The clamp assembly of Claim 1, made from a single material selected from a list consisting of aluminum, steel, polypropylene and plastic.
7. The clamp assembly of Claim 1 wherein the left side portion or right side portion further comprise a pattern of alternating single and double spikes.
8. The clamp assembly of Claim 7 further comprising a plurality of protrusions on the back side of the left side portion to provide depth for the extruded walls.
9. The clamp assembly of Claim 1, manufactured by injection molding or 3D printing techniques.
10. The clamp assembly of Claim 9 wherein the mold for injection molding is made of aluminum or steel.
11. A one-piece clamp assembly for securing a window covering comprising: a left side portion further comprising: a plurality of horizontal rounded extrusions; a vertical rounded extrusion; and a plurality of extruded walls; a right side portion further comprising; a plurality of horizontal connecting holes to receive the horizontal rounded extrusions from the left side portion; a vertical connecting hole to receive the vertical rounded extrusion; and a plurality of spikes to engage with the extruded walls of the left side portion; and a hinge portion connecting the left side portion and right side portion; wherein the one-piece clamp assembly is made of a one-piece material; wherein the one-piece clamp assembly is configured to be in an open position and a closed position; wherein in the closed position, the rounded extrusions mate with the respective connecting holes and the extruded walls mate with the respective spikes on the opposite side, to form a secure connection, whereby the window covering is secured therein between the left side portion and the right side portion.
12. The clamp assembly of Claim 11 wherein each rounded extrusion further comprises a left and right leg and a rounded head such that, when pinched, the head creates a rounded extrusion.
13. The clamp assembly of Claim 11 wherein the window covering is a window curtain or a vertical blind.
14. The clamp assembly of Claim 11 wherein the hinge portion further comprises a connecting slot to enable the clamp assembly to fasten to a head rail fastener of the window covering.
15. The clamp assembly of Claim 11, made from a single material selected from a list consisting of aluminum, steel, polypropylene and plastic.
16. The clamp assembly of Claim 11 wherein the left side portion or right side portion further comprises a pattern of alternating single and double spikes.
17. The clamp assembly of Claim 16 further comprising a plurality of protrusions on the back side of the left side portion to provide depth for the extruded walls.
18. The clamp assembly of Claim 11, manufactured by injection molding or 3D printing techniques
19. The clamp assembly of Claim 18 wherein the mold for injection molding is made of aluminum or steel.
