Tupplur IKEA Roller Blind Mount

thingiverse

I like the simple IKEA Tupplur roller blinds, but if you have PVC window frames with windows that can topple inward and open inward, you might not have enough space to mount it or it will be in the way. If there was only a way to attach the blinds to the opening window itself without using screws that mess up the window. Just double sided tape is also not an option as it will not hold for long. Well, now there is a solution that is as simple as it is elegant! I created this part for myself and am using it currently on all my windows. Note that this part is specifically designed for European PVC windows, the white ones that you see everywhere in Eastern Europe specifically, of which the brim is 15mm thick (not counting the rubber). What this thing does is clamp around the brim of your window and holds up the mount for the Tupplur blind. So this thing takes the weight and all forces. You will have to use some double sided tape too, just to keep the thing in place. When rolling up and down there can be some sideways forces that might push the thing out of place. But I recommend getting good tape. Some generic carpet tape probably will not hold. Doublesided tape for car detailing will do a fine job, is durable and is relatively cheap. What you need: Strong double sided tape like for the automotive industry. PETG or ABS. I do not recommend printing this in PLA as it is too brittle, but you are welcome to try. Let me know how that goes if you do! That's it. Edit: I also added a hook that you can clip on the bottom side of the window so that you can hook the blind on it. This way the blind will keep tight with the window, even when you tilt it. I also created one for the Fridans series as I think Tupplur went out of stock : https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3676609
