Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2013084231A2] According to one aspect of the subject matter of the present application there is provided a foldable curtain rod configured for mounting thereon a curtain. The rod comprises at least two elongated rod segments consecutively articulated to one another via a coupling arrangement allowing pivotal displacement of one rod segment with respect to the other. Each of the rod segments is configured for supporting a respective portion of the curtain, extending along a hanging line. The curtain rod is configured for assuming at least a first, deployed position in which the rod segments are essentially axially aligned to provide the curtain rod with a maximal span thereof and a second, folded position in which the rod segments are substantially parallel to one another to provide the curtain rod with a minimal span thereof. In the second, folded position, the hanging lines of the respective rod segments are spaced from one another.
