(57) A blind assembly comprises a rectangular frame (30), a pair of self retracting blinds
(10,20) mounted at opposite ends of the frame, a pair of slide members (11,21) supported
in slideways (35,36) extending along either side of the frame to which the respective
blinds are connected to enable one or other or both blinds to be deployed along the
frame, means being provided to couple the slide members together for tandem movement
of the blinds to enable the extent to which the respective blinds are deployed to
be varied and each blind having means to lock the blind fully stowed and thereby to
hold the other blind fully deployed along the frame. In a preferred arrangement, each
slide member is supported in the slideways for tilting movement in addition to linear
movement along the slideways, said tilting movement caused by manual engagement of
the slide member being arranged to release said locking means.
