In 2008, in Pensacola, Florida, USA, engineer and inventor Willis Mallett decided to make comfortable, battery-powered curtains. He identified residential and commercial premises as the main market for his product, in which it is impossible, or expensive, or simply undesirable to gouge walls and ceilings, stretch a cable - in fact, start a new renovation if there is a need for automatic curtains.
According to the inventor, all the products on the market at that time were unsatisfactory: they were too noisy, and the batteries did not last long. Willis, being the author of the counterweight system - torsion springs, which are used in garage doors, decided to apply the same technology in curtains, and with the help of counterbalance springs, to minimize the consumption of battery power. Behind the experiment, which no one doubted was successful, were years of use of torsion weights in the garage industry. The result was not long in coming. Today in cordless roller blinds, pleats and curtain rods Qmotion® several dozen unique patented technologies are used. Here are just a few of them.
- Silence;
- Possibility of manual control;
- Software change of upper and lower limits;
- Astronomical timers;
- Long (up to 3 years) battery life;
- No need to remove the curtain to replace the batteries;
- Unprecedented 5-year guarantee for the mechanism *;
- Compatible with Smart Home control systems.
There are also low-voltage versions of roller blinds that have all (except for autonomous power supply) of the listed properties.
* not including cloth and batteries
