A window blind assembly includes a headrail having a longitudinal axis, a bottom rail suspended below the headrail and a window covering material extending between the headrail and the bottom rail, the window covering material having an upper end attached to the headrail and a lower end attached to the bottom rail. The assembly also includes a traversable tube disposed in the headrail, the traversable tube having first and second ends. The assembly includes a threaded support rod secured to the headrail adjacent a first end of the tube, the threaded support rod being threadably coupled with the first end of the tube for providing traversing motion to the tube. The assembly also includes a spring motor secured to said headrail adjacent a second end of the tube. The spring motor has drive gears in communication with the second end of the traversable tube for selectively rotating the tube, whereby the drive gears rotate about respective axes that are substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the headrail.

A window blind assembly includes a headrail having a longitudinal axis extending between first and second ends thereof, a first tube rotatably mounted between the first and second ends of the headrail and a second tube rotatably mounted between the first tube and the second end of the headrail. The assembly also has a bottom rail suspended below the headrail, an intermediate rail suspended below the headrail and positioned between the headrail and the bottom rail, and a window covering material extending between the intermediate rail and the headrail, the window covering material having an upper end attached to the intermediate rail and a lower end attached to the bottom rail. The assembly further includes a first lift cord having an upper end secured to the first tube and a lower end secured to the intermediate rail, and a second lift cord having an upper end secured to the second tube and a lower end secured to the bottom rail, whereby the intermediate rail and the bottom rail are movable independently of one another.
