Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0562711A2] A vertical louvre blind in which a plurality of travellers (30) are mounted for movement along a headrail (10) each having a vertically extending vane depending therefrom, whereby the vanes hang downwardly therefrom and a conventional tilting mechanism on each traveller is provided for tilting all of the vanes simultaneously. The travellers have wheels (34) thereon moveable along tracks on the headrail. A controllable transmission cord (76) is connected to one of the travellers for moving it along the headrail and spacers (90,91) connect adjacent travellers to one another, whereby movement of the one traveller (60) in one direction will pull the next and subsequent traveller in one direction when they are spaced from adjacent travellers by the length of the spacer (90,91). The travellers bodies are of identical construction and each include a pair of arms (36,37) inclined towards one another and joined by a bridge (38) engaging in an undercut groove (20) in the headrail to prevent skewing.
