Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of household equipment and especially a mobile and folding support for drying clothes, especially indoors.
  • a support structure for drying laundry constituting an indoor dryer said "Tower dryer” shaped by first and second frames, these two rectangular frames being folded angularly against each other along a vertical axis passing through the small hot sides of said frames; so that in the folded position the two rigid frames are brought against each other, while in the deployed position of the support the two frames are arranged at right angles.
  • the two frames forming the supporting structure of the dryer have suspension racks or shelves, which are themselves small frames interiors trimmed with wires or parallel bars suitable for receiving the articles being drying. When the dryer is folded back, these shelves articulated according to one of their long listed on two uprights of a first frame are suspended pendulum pending in the vertical plane defined by the two uprights of said frame.
  • each shelf can be raised angularly from its previous folded position to be brought into a horizontal position; and she can then be immobilized in this horizontal operational position, its edge opposite to the hinge pin coming to bear against the amount of the second frame.
  • Dryers of this type are very widespread because they allow to have in the position deployed and operating a linear measurement of high suspension, on a reduced volume, while in the folded position, the two frames and the keys being in parallel planes, the storage volume occupied is very small.
  • the dryers of the type described remain in use limited to personal effects and linen. house of reduced size and are not suitable, under normal conditions of use of receive linens of dimensions corresponding to sheets, tablecloths or the like; their possible positioning above the supporting structure, in the covering position does not more then allows ventilation and evacuation of the moisture laden air from the interior space of the tower.
  • the present invention aims to remedy these drawbacks and makes it possible to offer a support Linen drying rack of satisfactory working length with the advantage of a volume of reduced storage in the folded position. It therefore offers storage and storage facilities in place, with speed and comfort of execution, saving time and saving money the arduousness of the operations according to the devices of the prior art previously described.
  • the dryer allows the reception of textile pieces of large dimensions, without hampering the drying of the smaller parts lining the supports interiors.
  • the invention thus makes it possible not only to benefit from a linear measurement of suspension, but also realizes a drying support means adapted to the pieces of large surface area, so far difficult to suspend drying.
  • the invention relates to a lower drying support of the folding type and consisting of a central flap and (the two side frames of dimensions substantially identical, i.e. a first frame and a second frame each articulated laterally on the adjacent vertical uprights belonging to the central flap and angularly foldable against this central flap to occupy neighboring parallel positions, the lateral frames being deployable along their axis of articulation to each occupy a position in a plane vertical at right angles to the plane of the central flap, the side frames have a plurality of horizontal sleepers and the sleepers of at least one of the side frames have rods or suspension bars of length corresponding substantially to the width of the central flap and therefore at the interval between the two lateral frames in their deployed position, the said rods are suspended pendulum and free from a cross coming from a first lateral frame, being able by angular displacement to be brought into a horizontal position and the second lateral frame comprises crosspieces free of rods and arranged substantially in the horizontal plane of the crosspiece of the first lateral frame
  • the central flap consists of two or more horizontal crosspieces connecting two uprights which are common to this flap central and to each of the side frames.
  • the crosspieces of the second frame include notches each capable of receiving and immobilizing the end of a rod coming from the cross of the opposite frame.
  • the free end of the suspension rods coming to bear on the cross member of the second frame comprises raised bodies of complementary shape of said notch and thus suitable for fitting into said notch while ensuring the stable stiffening of all three frames forming in plan a U-shaped structure, open by its face located between the free amounts of said first and second frame, the release of the rods from their receiving notch will allow the reversibility of this stiffening to bring the structure back from the dryer to its folded and compacted position.
  • first and second side frames and the central frame comprises, of preferably near the top of their vertical spoilers or a spoiler near the top of each post.
  • the said spoilers are foldable between a position brought towards the plane of each frame supporting the corresponding spoiler and a position projected substantially at 90 ° outwards from said plane.
  • the two spoilers belonging to the same frame carry at least a suspension wire joining them.
  • the horizontal U-shaped structure of the deployed dryer i.e. the frame central forming the base of the U and the two side frames defining the branches, leaves a free face for positioning of the user and maneuvers for setting up the parts to dry.
  • the user indeed sets up the rods connecting a first frame to the frame facing him successively and as the dryer is filled; of so that this user can present the linen or textile piece frontally and directly facing the support wire, fixing it quickly if necessary with pins or in a jumper, as we do on an outside drying wire.
  • the dryer in the general form of an articulated triptych is consists of three sections, a central section 1, here reduced to two simple crosspieces 2 and 2 ' related to two lateral uprights 3 and 3 '; these same amounts are common to the component central 1 and to the two side flaps 4 and 4 ', these side flaps are formed by a first 4 and a second 4 ′ rectangular frame arranged on a vertical edge and formed of two uprights and a plurality of sleepers; each side frame 4 or 4 'is thus made up of an upright internal 3 or 3 '(common with the central flap) and an external upright 5 or 5', for each shutter the two uprights are joined by a plurality of horizontal crosspieces.
  • a first lateral frame for example in the form shown and described in frame 4, is provided with crosspieces 6, 6 'and 6 ", as seen in detail in Figures 4 and 5 and carriers of the articulated end of suspension rods 7, 7 '.
  • these sleepers include notches 8, 8 'for the engagement of the bent end of each rod engaged in the notch and trapped by a cover 9 fitted on the top of the crosspiece.
  • the rods can remain hanging or be raised to their horizontal active position.
  • the Figure 4 shows a binding cross 6 of the side frame 4, Figure 5 world a cross substantially identical corresponding to the intermediate and carrying 6 'and 6 "sleepers with each end of a connecting sleeve on the support post 3 and 5.
  • a crosspiece lower 10 completes the framework of the lateral frame 4.
  • each rods In their active horizontal position the rods are brought to bear by their ends free on the cross member of the opposite frame and located at the same height as the articulation cross member.
  • These crosspieces 11, 11 ', 11' 'for supporting the rods are shown in FIG. 8 and have a row of housings open upwards 12, 12 ′;
  • Figure 9 shows a view in detail of this accommodation; each has two side walls 12a, 12b and a bottom 12c.
  • a side wall 12a is lower than its neighbor to facilitate engagement and positioning of the terminal sphere 13 arranged at the end of each rod and intended to come to rest in its receiving housing.
  • the wall of the housing 12 facing the rod is largely hollowed out to allow the passage of the rod; at the base of this face a hollow 12d recess in the shape of an arc of a circle serves as a cradle to support the body rod of the rod, while the bottom 12c of the housing forms a cup-shaped cap spherical to receive the terminal sphere 13.
  • a connecting cross 10 'symmetrical to the cross member 10 completes the structure of the lateral frame 4.
  • the tops of the 3, 3 'and 5, 5' uprights receive spoilers 14, 1 5 and 14 ', 15 able to overflow towards the outside space of the dryer; these spoilers or brackets carry two additional suspension wires 17 on each frame lateral, these rigid wires preferably being able to be joined and joined at their ends by connecting end pieces 17a. These wires 17 allow the peripheral positioning of laundry large dimensions such as sheets or tablecloths surrounding the dryer.
  • a console 18 can be provided at the top of the internal uprights 3 'and 5' and can receive a hanging hanger bearing clothing such as a bodice or shirt.
  • the base of the uprights comprises a roller to facilitate the displacement of the assembly.
