SCREENING DEVICE

摘要

A screening device (10) for an aperture such as a window. The screening device (10) comprises an upper section (11), a lower section (13), and a track (15) interconnecting the upper and lower sections, the track defining two spaced apart track rails (17). A space (19) is enclosed by the upper and lower sections (11, 13) and the two track rails (17), with the space (19) conforming to the size of the aperture to be screened. The upper section comprises an upper screen (21) and the lower section comprises a lower screen (22). The upper and lower screens (21, 22) are each being moveable into and out of a screening position with respect to the space (19), wherein either screen can occupy the screening position while the other is out of the screening position, and wherein both screens can be out of the screening position. A control means (31) is operable for moving the upper screen (21) into and out of the screening position. The lower screen (22) is biased away from the screening position and selectively operable to move into the screening position in response to movement of the upper screen (21) out of the screening position. The lower screen (22) is releasably attachable to the upper screen whereby movement of the upper screen (21) out of the screening position draws the second screen (22) towards the screening position.
