Description

  The present invention relates to a laundry dryer having a large number of clothespins, and more particularly to a device capable of drying a knit product such as a sweater on a frame of the laundry dryer.

  When a knit product such as a sweater is washed and dried, if it is hung on a clothes hanger or bag, it is stretched due to its own weight and loses its shape. As a countermeasure, spread it on a flat surface and dry it. There is a method called flat laying, but it is difficult to find a convenient place. There are special equipment for flat laying using the net, but there is a problem that it is quite large and takes up space and is difficult to store.

  An object of the present invention is to prevent the deformation of the clothes by devising so that a knit product such as a sweater can be placed on the frame of the laundry dryer and drying it like a flat. In addition, there is no need for special equipment for flat laying using the net.

Means to solve the problem

  In order to achieve the above object, the present invention includes, as a first means, a support member that extends from a predetermined position on the outer periphery of the frame of the laundry dryer to a hook portion positioned above the frame, and the frame is formed by the support member. The structure is supported in a cantilevered manner. As a second means, by a connecting member that connects to the hook portion at an angle so as to approach the horizontal direction or the horizontal direction from a rising member that rises to a height of 10 cm or more substantially perpendicular to the frame body at a predetermined position on the outer periphery of the frame body A structure supporting the frame was adopted.

The invention's effect

  According to the present invention, since it has been devised so that a knit product such as a sweater can be placed on the frame of the laundry dryer, it can be dried like a flat, and its shape can be prevented. Therefore, it is possible to easily lay flat even if there is no place suitable for flat laying, and no special equipment for flat laying is required. Special equipment for flat laying uses a net, but it is quite large and has the disadvantage that it takes up space and prevents other laundry from being dried. This eliminates all of these drawbacks. According to the present invention, in addition to a knit product such as a sweater, a pillow or the like can be placed on the frame and dried, which is convenient.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

FIG. 1 (a) shows a laundry dryer according to the present invention, and the frame bodies 1, 1 'are provided with a large number of laundry scissors 3 suspended from the laundry. The frame bodies 1 and 1 'are structured to be rotatable around the shaft portion 4' by the bearing portion 2, and can be folded inward as indicated by arrows to form a compact structure (folded inwardly). The structure to make compact is limited to a large laundry dryer. The support member 4 is for supporting the frame bodies 1, 1 ′ and is integral with the shaft portion 4 ′, and the shaft portion 4 ′ is a part of the frame body. Considering the state in which the frames 1, 1 'are horizontal, the support member 4 rises upward from a predetermined position on the outer periphery of the frames 1, 1', (4 ') and is positioned above the frames 1, 1'. It extends to the hook portion 5, and the support member 4 supports the frame bodies 1, 1 ′ in a cantilevered manner. Since the support member 4 supports the frame bodies 1 and 1 'and the laundry in a cantilevered manner, the support member 4 has sufficient strength. However, as shown in FIG. May be provided. FIG. 1 (c) shows a knitted product (laundry) such as a sweater placed on the frame 1, 1 'and dried. In the present invention, the support member 4 cantilever the frame 1, 1'. Since it is a supportive support structure, there is no obstacle and it is very easy to put the laundry (in the conventional laundry dryer, chains extending from the four corners of the frame bodies 1 and 1 'to the hook portion 5 disturb the Laundry cannot be put on). In this case, it is desirable to provide the frame 1, 1 'with a non-slip portion 6 (swelling portion) in FIG. 1 (a) so that the laundry does not slide down (the anti-slip portion 6 is a high friction material such as rubber). May be substituted).
In the present invention, when the laundry dryer is at a high position, the laundry can be easily put on the laundry by lowering it using an S-shaped hook or the like.

  In FIG. 1 (a), the frame bodies 1 and 1 'are supported in a cantilevered manner by the support member 4. FIG. 2 (a) shows a structure corresponding to a structure in which both ends are supported. Show. That is, in FIG. 2 (a), the frames 1, 1 'are supported at both ends by rising members 8 (two are in pairs) and connecting members 8' (two in pairs). Considering the state in which the frame 1, 1 'is horizontal, it is supported at a predetermined position on the outer periphery of the frame 1, 1' up to a height of 10 cm or more substantially perpendicular to the frame 1, 1 '. The frame members 1 and 1 'are supported in a supportive manner at both ends by a connecting member 8' that is connected to the hook portion 5 at an angle so as to approach the horizontal direction or the horizontal direction from the rising member 8 that rises. Since the rising member 8 has a height of 10 cm or more (actually, it is desired to have a height of about 14 to 18 cm), it is easy to put a knitted product (laundry) such as a sweater in the meantime. For example, a knit product such as a sweater may be appropriately folded and placed on the frame body 1 and dried so as to open toward the frame body 1 '(the rising member 8 has a sufficient height. Easily). In addition, you may provide the anti-slip | skid part 6 of FIG. 2 (b) shows the structure corresponding to the structure in which the rising members 8 are provided at the four corners of the frames 1 and 1 'and the connecting members 8 "are chained in FIG. 2 (b). The rising members 8 ″ are provided at the four corners of the frame bodies 1, 1 ′, and are provided with chain-like connecting members 8 ″ that connect the rising members 8 ″ to the hook portion 5. Since the rising member 8 ″ has a height of 10 cm or more, a knit product (laundry) such as a sweater can be put on the plate and dried in the meantime. The rising member 8 ″ can be rotated in the direction perpendicular to the paper surface. It is preferable to have a structure in which the rising member 8 ″ can be folded so that it does not get in the way when the frames 1, 1 ′ are folded inward.

In general, the laundry is hung between clothespins or hung on clothes hangers, etc., but the clothing openings (opening of the abdomen and sleeves) It is desirable to open a wide open area and the opening of the leg of the pants and so on, so-called open-drying is difficult, but such open-drying is actually difficult with the above-described laundry scissors and clothes hanger. Therefore, it is conceivable to use a gap holder for opening and drying shown in FIG. That is, in FIG. 3 (a), the gap holder for opening and drying is a gap holding member 9 that forcibly opens the opening of the clothes at a fixed gap, and clip portions 10 provided at both ends of the gap holding member 9. It is composed of
The clip portion 10 has nipping portions 11 and 12 for nipping the cloth of clothing, and a flexible cap 15 (made of a high friction material) may be inserted and fixed to the nipping portion 12 in order to increase the nipping force. desirable. Therefore, when the picking part 13 is picked with a finger like a clothespin, the thin part 14 is easily deformed because the material is thin, the pinching parts 11 and 12 are opened, and the pinching parts 11 and 12 are the picking part 13. When the picked finger is released, it closes due to the elasticity of the material (for example, plastic). In this way, the cloth of clothing can be sandwiched by the clip portion 10. FIGS. 3 (d) and 3 (e) show how to use the gap holder for opening and drying, and the gap holder A at the opening of clothing (the abdomen of the outerwear, the opening of the sleeve, the opening of the leg of the pants, etc.). , B are used to open and dry (the distance holding member A, B has a length of the distance holding member of about 18 cm for the former and about 8 cm for the latter. In this case, the distance holding member A holds the distance. If the member has a telescopic structure that can be expanded and contracted, the distance holder B can be substituted with this one). Since the distance holders A and B have a constant weight, a sufficient space is formed not only at the opening of the garment but also above the opening, the ventilation inside the garment is improved, and drying is accelerated. FIG. 3 (B) shows an interval holder corresponding to that obtained by removing the knob 13 in FIG. 3 (A). Clip part 10 'opens pinching part 12 directly with a finger.
Further, FIG. 3 (C) shows an interval holder corresponding to the clip portion 10 having the same structure as that of a normal clothespin in FIG. 3 (A). Reference numeral 16 denotes a spring (C-shaped).

It is necessary to wipe clothes and sheets directly on a general clothesline and wipe them with a cloth to keep them clean. Or Therefore, as shown in FIG. 4A, there is a method in which a ring-shaped wiping tool 18 (used by cutting a sleeve or the like) is passed through the clothes-drying basket 17. This method is convenient because it can be moved to the end as shown in the figure after wiping the laundry basket 17. However, when the wiping tool 18 needs to be washed, it is necessary to lift the clothes basket 17 and pull it out from this, which is troublesome (also difficult and dangerous in some places).
In order to eliminate the above drawbacks, it is preferable to use a ring-shaped wiping tool 19 that passes through a clothes-drying basket as shown in FIG. That is, the wiping tool 19 includes a wiping member 20 and a coupler 21 that couples both ends of the wiping member 20, and the coupler 21 uses, for example, a hook-and-loop fastener (a button may be used). Therefore, if the coupling tool 21 is removed, the wiping tool 19 becomes like a piece of cloth, and can be easily removed from the clothesline, and after washing it, it is hung on the clothesline and the coupling tool 21 is coupled. It will not fall into a ring shape and will not be blown by the wind. In this way, it is not necessary to lift the clothesline when the wiping tool 19 is attached to or removed from the clothesline, which is convenient.
