Abstract
A curtain support system having a wall mounted bracket which has an outwardly extending bracket arm, and a mating curtain rod arm connected to or integral with a curtain rod. The rod arm and bracket arm are capable of being adjusted so that the curtain rod can assume positions which vary in distance from the supporting wall or window to which the bracket arm is attached. The bracket arm has a rack comprised of a series of slots formed on the upper edge thereof, and the rod arm has a bar which fits into each of the slots in the bracket arm. The bar, which is located along the top edge of the rod arm, cooperates with a stop on the lower edge of the rod arm to allow upward rotation of the rod arm, while limiting downward rotation. The bracket arm and rod arm have complementary interfitting C-shaped cross-sections which provide lateral stability to the system.
