Definitions

  • the present invention refers to an improved kind of clothes drying machine, preferably of the type intended for use in households, provided with a substantially cylindrical drying drum adapted to rotate about its own axis, as well as static support means adapted to keep certain items to be dried, such as in particular footwear, suspended within said rotating drum.
  • These machines are generally characterized in that they are provided with a variously shaped, movable framework with a netlike or rack-like structure adapted to be inserted in the rotating drum of the machine, but in such a manner as to remain in a stable or stationary relationship with the outer casing of the same machine, so as to keep a serviceable position for the items to be dried statically to rest thereupon or to be arranged therewithin.
  • a clothes drying machine that is provided with a support framework that is capable of being removably inserted and installed in the drum of a clothes drying machine, however in a way as to be separated physically therefrom, and enables certain items to be dried to be placed thereupon or therein in an optimal posture and with an optimal inclination relative to the flow direction of the drying air, while at the same time enabling it to be most easily and conveniently inserted in the rotating drum, and removed therefrom, without any particular effort, and without this meaning that any significant penalty has to be paid for this as far as other performance aspects or functions are concerned.
  • a rotating drum 1 holding the clothes to be dried, said drum being contained within an outer casing 2 and provided with a front opening 3, through which access can be gained into the drum; the machine further comprises means (not shown) adapted to direct a forced flow of hot dry air through said rotating drum along the horizontal axis thereof.
  • said support framework must first of all be removed from the drum, loaded with the items due to be dried under static conditions, and finally put again into the drum, where it is secured with appropriate fastening means (not shown).
  • said support framework is removable from the interior of the drum, in order to be conveniently loaded outside the machine with the items to be placed there for drying under static conditions, and is adapted to be installed within the drum in such a manner as to ensure that it will not come into contact with the same drum at any moment during the operation of the machine.
  • said support framework is kept hanging, i.e. in a suspended condition within the rotating drum by securing it - using means that are widely known as such in the art - between the outer frame member 20 of the framework 4 and appropriate engagement means provided at a proper site along the edge of the access opening of the machine.
  • the support framework has a lower or bottom structure 5 extending horizontally and, preferably, two side wall 6, 7 arising from the opposite sides of said bottom structure.
  • a box-like member 8 is applied onto the lower side of said bottom structure and, from this box-like member 8, there projects a forward-oriented rod 9, at the front end portion of which there is provided a handgrip 10.
  • This rod is slidable relative to said box-like member 8, in the sense that it can be fully inserted therein, as shown in Figure 2 , or pulled out thereof, as shown in Figures 3 , 4 and 5 , with a translatory movement in a direction that is substantially parallel to the axis of the rod and, therefore, parallel to the plane of said bottom structure 5.
  • said rod When pulled out, said rod is capable of being turned upwards with a rotary movement round a pivotal centre located at a point inside said box-like member 8, but cannot on the contrary be turned downwards.
  • said handgrip 10 is embodied as a simple elongated cylindrical body joined at its centre line with the front end portion of said rod 9 and oriented in the horizontal plane, as this is shown symbolically in Figures 4 and 5 .
  • said rod is capable of rotating in a vertical plane, it ensues that said handgrip 10, as embodied in the above-described manner, remains constantly horizontal, even when it is raised by turning the rod upwards.
  • the described devices and parts are so sized and arranged as to enable the upward rotary motion of the rod 9 to continue up to beyond the right angle, so that, by keeping being turned in this way, the rod and the associated handgrip eventually start to descend; however, they do so in a space lying vertically above said bottom structure 5, as best shown in Figure 6 .
  • said rod 9 is then blocked in its movement by proper check means, against which it comes to simply rest in a fully stable condition, but in an inclined position.
  • said handgrip 10 which is provided at the end portion of the rod 9, remains most obviously in a raised condition above said bottom structure 5.
  • said box-like member 8 is preferably embodied in the following manner: with reference to Figures 2 and 4 , said box-like member is situated under said bottom structure 5, and preferably on the front portion thereof, so that said handgrip 10 can be most easily and conveniently grasped and pulled out or, conversely, be pushed inwards to cause the rod 9 to slide into said box-like member 8.
  • This box-like member 8 is hollow inside and accommodates a sliding cross-member 21 secured with its median portion to the rear end portion of said rod 9 sliding into said box-like member 8.
  • said sliding cross-member 21 forms a kind of "slide” capable of moving rectilinearly on runners within said box-like member 8 into two extreme opposite positions corresponding to respective full-out and full-in positions of said rod 9, as shown in Figures 2 and 3 .
  • said sliding cross-member 21 forms the horizontal pivot about which the rod 9 rotates.
  • the above-mentioned curvature 42 is arranged and sized so that, when the rod is turned backwards in the afore-described way, the cavity 44 resulting from such curvature (see Figure 13 ) engages one of the reticular elements 43 that form said rack-like bottom structure 5 ( Figure 10 ) and extend orthogonally to the vertical plane of rotation of the rod 9. In this way, the rod 9 is blocked in the desired backward inclined position, thereby achieving the desired result in a simple and easy manner.
