Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a clothes drying apparatus where a heavy article such as a futon is less likely to fall while they are dried on a wash-line pole. <P>SOLUTION: The clothes drying apparatus is a set of a wash-line pole receiving implement 1 and a wash-line pole 2. The wash-line pole receiving implement 1 has a support body 3 fixed to a handrail etc. at a veranda, and an arm pole 4 fitted to the support body 3. The arm pole 4 is fitted to the support 3 turnably and slidably. The arm pole 4 is provided with three pole receiving parts 5 of substantially elliptical shape. The wash-line pole 2 is provided with a slip prevention part 6 having a nearly elliptical cross section and consisting of a large number of projecting lines surrounding it. The wash-line pole 2 can be inserted into and removed from the pole receiving parts 5 and is supported with a gap in the pole receiving parts 5. In an inserted state, the wash-line pole 2 can be turned by approximately 44° and can be moved up/down and to the right/left within the gap. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT

Description

  The present invention relates to a clothes drying apparatus suitable for drying heavy objects such as easy-to-fall futons.

Japanese Patent Application No. Hei 6-270602 (Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. Hei 8-107992) discloses a laundry basket receiving device having an armrest having a non-circular hook receiving portion. Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 4-62437 (Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 6-26794) discloses a clothes rack having a non-circular cross-sectional shape.
JP-A-8-107992 Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 6-26794

  In the above-mentioned conventional example, the clothes basket holder and the clothes basket are not set as a set, but are considered independently, and even if they are set, the clothes basket is rotated 360 degrees or more. It's not something you can't do. Therefore, when the clothes rack is inserted into the clothes basket holder, especially when a heavy item such as a futon is dried on the clothes rack, the clothes basket rotates and dries many times unless it is properly balanced. There is a problem that things fall.

In addition, it is possible to fix the clothes basket receiving device and the clothes basket so that the clothes basket cannot be rotated, but this may cause the clothes basket to be in a non-horizontal state. If the armband cannot be rotated or moved up and down, both the pair of armbands must be rotated or moved up and down simultaneously, which is inconvenient to operate.
An object of the present invention is to solve these problems.

  In order to solve the above-described problems, the present invention provides a clothes drying apparatus in which a clothes rack receiving tool having an armrest having a basket receiving part and a clothes basket inserted through and supported by the basket receiving part are set. The hole shape of the basket receiving part and the cross-sectional shape of the clothes basket are both non-circular, and the clothes basket can be inserted into and removed from the basket receiving part and is supported with a gap in the basket receiving part. At the same time, it is configured not to be able to rotate 360 degrees or more.

  As described above, according to the present invention, the clothes rack is configured not to be able to rotate more than 360 degrees, so even when a heavy object such as a futon is dried on the clothes rack, the clothes basket will There is also an effect that the dried things are hard to fall off.

  In addition, since the clothes rack can be inserted into and removed from the basket receiving part and is supported with a gap in the basket receiving part, the clothes basket can be placed in a non-horizontal state, for example, the armband can be rotated. Even if it is possible to move or move up and down, it is possible to rotate or move up and down one by one of the pair of armbands, and it is not necessary to move both of the pair of armbands at the same time, and the operation becomes easy effective.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.
The clothes drying apparatus of the present invention is a combination of a clothes basket receiving tool 1 and a clothes basket 2.

  The clothes-drying receptacle 1 is normally used as a pair, and has a support 3 fixed to a handrail or the like of a veranda and an armband 4 attached to the support 3. The armband 4 is attached to the support 3 so as to be rotatable and slidable, and can be set to a horizontal use state, an obliquely upper use state, and a vertical storage state. The armband 4 is provided with three hook receiving portions 5... 5 having a substantially elliptical shape.

  The clothespin 2 has a substantially oval cross-sectional shape, and is provided with a non-slip portion 6 including a number of protrusions extending in the longitudinal direction. The clothes basket 2 can be inserted into and removed from the basket receiving part 5 and is supported with a gap in the upper part in the basket receiving part 5. It can be rotated only within a range of about 44 degrees (see FIG. 3), and can move up, down, left and right within the gap.

  The present invention can be applied to a clothes drying apparatus in which the arm 4 can change the angle as in the present embodiment, or a clothes drying apparatus in which the clothes basket holder 1 can be moved up and down and the vertical position can be adjusted. It can be said that it is particularly suitable.

  In these clothes drying apparatuses, the heights of the left and right basket receiving portions 5 and 5 are different, and the clothes basket 2 may be inclined. In such a case, since the clothes basket 2 can move in the basket receiving part 5 as described above, it can be in an oblique state. Accordingly, it is possible to rotate or move up and down one by one of the pair of arm rods 4 and 4, and it is not necessary to rotate or move the pair of arm rods 4 and 4 at the same time. It will be.
