Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0452154A2] A remote control system for a venetian blind having a headrail (4) and movable slats (5) which can be tilted and raised and lowered comprises electric motor carried by the headrail and coupled to the slats (5) for effecting movement thereof when the motor is energised, and a signal receiver (6) accommodated in the headrail and connected to the motor for energising the motor upon reception of a predetermined infrared actuating signal from a remote hand-held transmitter (4). The receiver (6) may respond to the actuating signal during an initial period to energise the motor to tilt the slats (5) and thereafter to translate the slats. The transmitter may transmit a selected one of a plurality of different actuating signals and the receiver may be settable to respond to a respective actuating signal to enable a plurality of adjacent blinds to be actuated independently. <IMAGE>
