TENSIONING ASSEMBLY FOR A SKYLIGHT ROLLER SHADE
A roller shade for adjustably covering a structural opening comprising a roller tube assembly having a roller tube, a shade material attached to the roller tube, and a pair of cables adapted to be wound about opposite ends of the roller tube. The roller shade further comprises a pair of longitudinal side panel assemblies adapted to be attached at opposite sides of the structural opening and retain the roller tube assembly therebetween, wherein each side panel assembly comprises a tensioning assembly adapted to tension the shade material. Each tensioning assembly comprises a fixed pulley bracket comprising a first and second pulleys, floating pulley bracket comprising a third pulley, a tension assist bracket removably attached to and between the fixed pulley bracket and the floating pulley bracket, and a spring attached at one end to the floating pulley bracket. The tension assist bracket is adapted to keep the floating pulley bracket fixed during installation and is adapted to be removed after the side panel assemblies are attached at the structural opening and the pair of cables are looped through the first, second, and third pulleys of respective tensioning assemblies and attached to a free end of the shade material.
