(54)	Device for supporting and driving a gather-up curtain

(57) The vertical strips (6, 7) supporting the lower edge (5) of a gather-up curtain are connected in pairs by horizontal strip sections (10). The upper edge of the curtain (1) is removably connected to a supporting profile (2) and the central portion of each horizontal strip section (10) is received within a diametrical slot (21) of the front face (20) of a winding reel (12) which is driven in rotation in order to wind thereon the two halves of each strip horizontal section (10) which are arranged at the two sides of the reel, so as to cause the raising of the lower edge of the curtain. The removal of the curtain may be obtained simply by disengaging the upper edge of the curtain (1) from the supporting profile (2) and disengaging each horizontal strip section (10) from the slot (21) of the respective winding reel (12).
