ROTODRAPER pivotal fixtures are used for changing the position of curtains on tormentors, side legs, back-drops and cycloramas. The effect is easily accomplished either by turning the curtain itself or by fastening a tow-line to the curtain pipe and pulling the tow line until the curtain is in the desired position.
The pivot arm is unique because no implement is required to secure the curtain to its proper position. The ROTODRAPER is simply installed and easily manipulated to any angle desired including a full 360-degree turn.
Special pivotal fixtures (Models 28-A, 17-A, 14-A, and 6-A) include an index plate and spring-loaded roller latch which secures the device at 15 degree intervals and helps to prevent accidental rotation.
With the use of a special brake, track-type ROTODRAPERS can be secured to any location along the track, helping to prevent accidental movement of the device. Simply by pulling down on the cord, the brake can be released and the pivot arm moved. (Obtainable as an optional accessory.)
