JP2002018195A - Clothes-drying platform - Google Patents

Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a clothes-drying platform which is used to dry the laundry indoors and outdoors. SOLUTION: This clothes-drying platform is formed by connecting the upper parts of two poles by upper connecting rods, providing the top ends of the two poles with supporting arms for supporting clothespoles and arranging the clothespoles across these supporting arms. The clothes dryers are mounted at the poles toward the outside. These clothes dryers consist of supporting parts projected horizontally from the poles and the clothespoles projectingly disposed from the supporting parts. Supporting legs are disposed at the bottom ends of the poles slidably by fixtures and the fixtures are made turnable relative to the poles. The clothes dryers are disposed toward the outer side, and therefore even if clothes of a long length are dried at the clothespoles supported at the supporting arms, the competition of the clothespoles of the clothes dryers and the clothes does not occur. The length is narrowed by extending the supporting legs to one side and rotating the fixtures and therefore housing properties are excellent.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a clothesline used for hanging laundry indoors and outdoors.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Heretofore, as a clothes-drying stand provided with two pillars continuously provided at a predetermined interval and members for hanging-up such as a hanging rod and a hanging rod group, the applicant of the present invention has disclosed a Japanese Patent Publication No. 3-49672.
In FIG. 4, mounting members slidable for each support are connected by operating rods, and legs which can be opened and closed by operating the operating rods up and down are provided. A support arm that supports the pole is provided,
There is proposed a clothesline in which a drying rod support is provided between two columns, and a number of drying rods are provided on the drying rod support.

[0003]

However, in the above-mentioned clothes-drying table, since the hanging-rod support member is provided between the two columns, the clothes-drying pole supported by the supporting arm at the upper end of the column is used for drying. There was a problem that the hanging rod in the center could get in the way when drying. Further, although the legs can be easily stored, there is a problem in that the number of parts constituting the legs is large and assembly is complicated.

The inventor of the present invention has conducted intensive studies in view of the drawbacks of the prior art. As a result, there is no competition between the clothespin at the top of the clothesline and the clothespin at the center, and the legs can be easily stored.
An object of the present invention is to provide a clothesline with a small number of parts constituting a leg.

[0005]

According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a clothesline, wherein the upper portions of the two columns are connected by an upper connecting rod, and the upper ends of the two columns have supporting arms for supporting the respective drying columns. A clothes-drying table is provided, and a clothes-line is arranged between the support arms. A clothes-drying device is attached to the support column outward, and the clothes-drying device is provided with a support portion horizontally projecting from the column and the support. It consists of a drying rod protruding from the part, and the support leg is slidably provided at the lower end of the support via a mounting tool,
This attachment is made rotatable with respect to the column, and the clothes drying equipment is provided outward, so even if you dry long clothes on the clothespin supported by the support arm, the clothes drying equipment There is no competition between the clothes and the clothes. In addition, since the depth is narrowed by extending the support leg to one side and rotating the attachment, the storage stability is excellent.

In a clothesline according to a second aspect of the present invention, the clothespin supporting arm provided at the upper end of the column is rotatable with respect to the column, and the depth is increased by rotating the supporting arm. It is made narrow and has excellent storage properties.

[0007]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. 1A and 1B show an example of an embodiment of a clothesline of the present invention. FIG. 1A is a front view, FIG. 1B is a side view, and FIG.

Reference numeral 1 denotes a support, which is attached to a support leg 2 by an attachment 3.
Attached through. A support arm 4 for supporting a clothesline is provided at the upper end of the support column 1, and the upper ends of the opposing support columns 1 are connected by an upper connecting rod 5 via a base 41 of the support arm 4. The support arm 4 has a base 41 movably attached to the column 1 and an arm 42 extending from the base 41. A support hole 43 is provided in the arm portion 42, and a clothesline is inserted into the support hole 43 to be supported.

At the center of the column 1, a support portion 61 and a drying rod 6 are provided.
A clothes-drying tool 6 is provided with the support portion 61 facing outward, and a drying rod 62 is provided on the support portion 61. The drying rod 62 is moved upward by about 9
Since it is configured to be able to rotate 0 degrees, the depth of the clothesline can be reduced by turning the storage-time drying rod 62 upward. The two columns 1 are supporting portions 61 of the clothesline 6.
Are connected by a center connecting rod 7 via a connecting portion 63 provided at the center. The support column 1 may be inserted through the support portion 61 of the clothes drying device 6 and may be fixed by screwing or tacking, or the support column 1 divided vertically may be inserted into the support portion 61 of the clothes drying device 6 from above and below. The upper and lower sides may be connected.

An attachment 3 is provided at the center of the support leg 2, and the side wall of the support leg 2 is pressed and fixed to the tip of a screw. The lower end of the column 1 is inserted into the upper part of the attachment 3, and the side wall of the lower end of the column 1 is fixed by being pushed by a screw. By loosening the screw holding the side wall,
The fixing of the support leg 2 to the fixture 3 is released, and the support leg 2 is slid back and forth with respect to the fixture 3. Further, by loosening the screw pressing the side wall of the support 1, the fixing between the mounting 3 and the support 1 is released, and the mounting 3 is fixed to the support 1.
Is rotatable with respect to.

FIGS. 2A and 2B show another embodiment of a clothesline according to the present invention, wherein FIG. 2A is a front view, FIG. 2B is a side view, and FIG. In this example, the support arm 4 at the upper end of the support 1 is composed of two arms, each of which is provided to be rotatable about the support 1, and provided on the support arm 4 between the opposing supports 1. A clothesline is supported over it. By rotating the support arms 4 inward when storing the clothesline, the depth is reduced and the size is reduced.

In this example, a clothesline 6 is provided at the center of the column 1 with the support portion 61 facing outward, and a ladder-shaped towel rail 8 is provided between the columns 1. . The base of the towel rack 8 is a support portion 6 of the clothesline 6.
It is pivotally supported by a pivot provided on one side wall, and is turned down when not in use so as to hang down.
