Abstract (en)
A readjustable Venetian blind (1) of the kind comprising a head rail (2), a hollow bottom rail (3) having a lengthwise cavity (30) with an opening (34) for receiving at least two connectors (11,12), at least one lift cord (7,8) fastened to the at least two connectors (11,12), at least one ladder cord (5,6) comprising two ladder side cords (25,26) fastened to the at least two connectors (11,12), and a number of spaced apart slats (4) suspended between the head rail (2) and the bottom rail (3) on cross rugs of the ladder cords (25,26). The at least two connectors (11,12) are configured for securing and enveloping the at least two connectors (11,12) releaseably in the cavity (30) of the bottom rail (3), and the at least two connectors (11,12) have readjustment means for increasing or reducing the length of the ladder side cords (25,26) between the head rail (2) and the connector (11,12). The design of the connectors allow the height of a Venetian blind to be readjusted as many times as desired to have different heights at each vertical side, and the mountings allow the Venetian blind to be unobstructively moved from side to side only limited by the dimensions of the frame which shall be screened by the Venetian blind.
