When a pressing force is applied between the pressing member 62 and the connecting member 38 by rotating the, the inclination α of the pressing member 62 increases as the pressing force increases. However, when the inclination α becomes a certain amount, the supporting portion 62c abuts on the side of the clamp 26, for example, the connecting member 38. as a result,
Since the inclination α does not exceed a certain value, the inclination α of the pressing member 62 can be regulated by bringing the support portion 62c into contact with the clamp 26. Therefore, the curtain support member 54 is pressed against the pressing member 62.
6A and 6B. When the support portion 62c of FIG. 6A is provided, the inclination α of the case where the support portion 62c of FIG. 6A is provided is larger than the inclination α of the case where the support portion 62c is not provided. Can also be smaller. By reducing the inclination α, the curtain support member 54 pressed and sandwiched between the pressing member 62 and the connecting member 38 has the members 62 and 38.
