Abstract (en)

A pull cord stopper device (20) for use in a blind apparatus operative in response to only the pulling of the cord control string of pull cords to control a screen. The pull cord stopper device (20) is disposed in a head box (10) and is adaptive to large-scale blind apparatus. The stopper case (28) of the pull cord stopper device (20) comprises a comb portion (40) for separating the pull cords (16), one from another, a knurled portion (42) for guiding a pinch roller (30), and a pin (54) received in a guide groove (52) formed in a switch member, for guiding the movement of the switch member (34). The slidable block (32) rotatably supports the pinch roller (30), and is operative to move within the stopper case (28) in the direction of movement of the pull cords (16) by means of rotation of the pinch roller (30). The slidable block (32) supports the switch member (52) which is integrally movable with the pull cords (16) in a direction of its travel, and, at the same time, supports the switch member (52) in a manner that it is relatively movable in a direction transverse to the travel of the pull cords (16). The resilient member (36) is operative to restrain the pull cords (16) by pinching them between the pressure member (38) and the pinch roller (30). The resilient member (36) constantly urges in a manner that the pull cords (16) is pinched between the pinch roller 30 and the pressure member (38). <IMAGE>
