特許文献１記載の考案では、玄関マットやバスマットなどのマット類を安定性良く干すことができるが、タオルやバスタオルなどのタオル類等を引っ掛けて干すことができず、物干し器として、汎用性に欠けるものであった。 In the device described in Patent Document 1, mats such as entrance mats and bath mats can be stably dried, but towels such as towels and bath towels cannot be hung and dried. It was lacking.

また、特許文献２記載の物干し器は、小型軽量で容易に持ち運びが可能であり、しかも脚パイプを重ね合わせてコンパクトに折り畳むことができるので、ベランダに限らず室内での使用にも好適であるが、玄関マットやバスマットなどの比較的大型で重量のあるマット類を安定性良く干すことができないものであった。 Further, the clothes drying apparatus described in Patent Document 2 is small and light and can be easily carried, and can be folded compactly by overlapping leg pipes. Therefore, it is suitable for indoor use as well as a veranda. However, relatively large and heavy mats such as entrance mats and bath mats cannot be stably dried.

本考案の目的は、タオルやバスタオルなどのタオル類だけでなく、玄関マットやバスマットなどのマット類も安定性良く干すことができ、しかもコンパクトに折り畳みが可能で且つ安価に製作可能な物干し器を提供することである。 The purpose of the present invention is to dry not only towels such as towels and bath towels, but also mats such as entrance mats and bath mats in a stable manner, and can be folded compactly and manufactured at low cost. Is to provide.

本考案に係る物干し器は、Ｕ字状の１対の脚パイプと、両脚パイプの両端部を回動自在に架設状に連結する連結軸とを有し、該連結軸を中心に両脚パイプを設定角度開脚させた設置姿勢と、両脚パイプを閉脚させた収納姿勢とに姿勢切換え可能な支持脚と、前記両脚パイプにそれぞれ設けた１対の物干し具であって、脚パイプの１対の脚部間に回動自在に架設支持した枢支ロッドと、該枢支ロッドの長さ方向に間隔をあけて複数並設され、該枢支ロッドから側方へ片持ち状に延びる複数のアームロッドとを有する１対の物干し具と、前記物干し具のアームロッドを略水平な展開姿勢に係脱可能に係止する係止手段と、前記脚パイプの脚部間に架設され、前記脚部と平行な折畳姿勢に物干し具を係止する係止ロッドとを備え、両脚パイプを設置姿勢に保持するとともに、前記物干し具を展開姿勢に保持した第１物干し姿勢と、両脚パイプを設置姿勢に保持するとともに、前記物干し具を折畳姿勢に係止した第２物干し姿勢とに姿勢切換え可能となしたものである。 A clothes dryer according to the present invention has a pair of U-shaped leg pipes and a connecting shaft that rotatably connects both end portions of both leg pipes. A support leg that can be switched between an installation posture in which a set angle is opened and a storage posture in which both leg pipes are closed, and a pair of clothes-drying tools provided on each of the leg pipes. A plurality of pivot rods that are rotatably supported between the legs, and a plurality of arms that are juxtaposed from the pivot rods in a cantilevered manner and spaced in the longitudinal direction of the pivot rods. A pair of clothes-drying tools having rods; locking means for detachably locking arm rods of the clothes-drying tools in a substantially horizontal deployed position; With a locking rod that locks the clothesline in a folding position parallel to the The posture is switched between a first clothes-drying posture in which the clothes-drying device is held in a deployed position and a second clothes-drying posture in which both leg pipes are held in an installed posture and the clothes-drying device is locked in a folded position. It has become possible.

この物干し器では、タオルやバスタオルなどのタオル類を干すときには、連結軸を中心に両脚パイプを設定角度開脚させて、両脚パイプを設置姿勢に保持するとともに、枢支ロッドを中心に両物干し具の複数のアームロッドを水平な展開姿勢に回転させて、物干し具の姿勢を係止手段で展開姿勢に係止し、物干し器を第１物干し姿勢に切換えて、展開姿勢のアームロッドにタオル類を吊下げてタオル類を干すことになる。また、マット類を干すときには、両脚パイプを設置姿勢に保持するとともに、枢支ロッドを中心に両物干し具のアームロッドを折畳姿勢に回動させて係止ロッドに係止させ、両物干し具のアームロッドを脚パイプに沿った倒立Ｖ字状に係止した、第２物干し姿勢に物干し器の姿勢を切換えて、連結軸及び倒立Ｖ字状のアームロッドに沿ってマット類を載せ掛けて、マット類を干すことになる。更に、物干し器を収納するときには、第２物干し姿勢から両脚パイプを重ね合わせるとともに、両物干し具を重ね合わせて、物干し器を平板状に折り畳んで収納することになる。 In this clothes dryer, when drying towels such as towels and bath towels, both leg pipes are opened at a set angle around the connecting shaft to hold both leg pipes in the installed position, and both clothes are dried around the pivot rod. Rotate a plurality of arm rods of the implement to a horizontal deployment posture, lock the clothes drying device in the deployment posture with the locking means, switch the clothes dryer to the first clothes drying posture, and put the towel on the arm rod in the deployment posture The towels are hung and the towels are dried. Also, when hanging the mats, hold both leg pipes in the installed position and rotate the arm rods of both clothes dryers to the folding position around the pivot rod to lock them to the locking rods. The arm rod is locked in an inverted V-shape along the leg pipe, the posture of the clothes dryer is switched to the second clothes-drying posture, and mats are placed on the connecting shaft and the inverted V-shaped arm rod. The mats will be dried. Further, when the clothes dryer is stored, both the leg pipes are overlapped from the second clothes drying posture, and both the clothes dryers are stacked, and the clothes dryer is folded and stored in a flat plate shape.

このように、この物干し器では、第１物干し姿勢に切換えることで、タオルやバスタオルなどのタオル類を干すことができ、また第２物干し姿勢に切換えることで、玄関マットやバスマットなどのマット類も安定性良く干すことができ、しかもマット類の上面側だけでなくアームロッド間の隙間を通じてマット類の下面側も外部に露出するので、効率的にマット類を乾かすことができる。更に、平板状に折り畳んで、家具と壁間の隙間等のデッドスペースを利用してコンパクトに収納することができる。また、パイプと金属ロッドなどの安価に入手可能な材料を用いて容易且つ安価に製作できる。 Thus, in this clothes dryer, towels such as towels and bath towels can be dried by switching to the first clothes drying position, and mats such as entrance mats and bath mats can be dried by switching to the second clothes drying position. In addition, the mats can be efficiently dried because not only the upper surface side of the mats but also the lower surface side of the mats is exposed to the outside through the gap between the arm rods. Furthermore, it can be folded into a flat plate and can be stored compactly using a dead space such as a gap between the furniture and the wall. Moreover, it can be manufactured easily and inexpensively using inexpensively available materials such as pipes and metal rods.

ここで、前記係止手段として、前記枢支ロッドよりも前記アームロッドの基端側を連結する連結ロッドを前記枢支ロッドと平行に前記両物干し具に設けるとともに、一方の物干し具の複数のアームロッドのうちの特定のアームロッドに、他方の物干し具の連結ロッドに下側から係止可能な係止部を形成し、他方の物干し具の複数のアームロッドのうちの特定のアームロッドに、一方の物干し具の連結ロッドに下側から係止可能な係止部を形成することが好ましい実施の形態である。この場合には、アームロッドに設けた簡単な構成の係止部により係止手段を構成することができる。 Here, as the locking means, a connecting rod that connects the proximal end side of the arm rod with respect to the pivot rod is provided in the both clothes dryers in parallel with the pivot rod, and a plurality of one clothes dryer is provided. A locking portion that can be locked from the lower side to a connecting rod of the other clothes drying tool is formed on a specific arm rod of the arm drying rods, and a specific arm rod of the plurality of arm rods of the other drying tool is formed. It is a preferred embodiment to form a locking portion that can be locked from below on the connecting rod of one of the clothes-drying tools. In this case, the locking means can be configured by a locking portion having a simple configuration provided on the arm rod.

少なくとも一方の物干し具の係止部を他方の物干し具の連結ロッドに下側から係合可能なフック部で構成し、該フック部が他方の物干し具の連結ロッドに係合することで、両脚パイプが設置姿勢以上に開脚しないように構成することもできる。他方の物干し具の連結ロッドに下側から係止するだけの係止部を形成した場合には、両脚ロッドが設置姿勢以上に開脚したときに、係止部が他方の物干し具の連結ロッドから離脱して、アームロッドが折畳姿勢に回動することがある。本考案では、このような現象を防止するため、少なくとも一方の物干し具の係止部を他方の物干し具の連結ロッドに下側から係合可能なフック部で構成し、両脚ロッドが設置姿勢以上に開脚することを防止することで、物干し器を第１物干し姿勢に安定的に保持することができる。 The latch part of at least one of the clothes dryers is configured by a hook part that can be engaged with the connecting rod of the other clothes dryer from below, and the hook part engages with the connecting rod of the other clothes dryer so that both legs It can also be configured so that the pipe does not open more than the installation posture. When the locking part that only locks from the lower side is formed on the connecting rod of the other clothes drying tool, the locking part becomes the connecting rod of the other clothes drying tool when both leg rods are opened beyond the installation posture. The arm rod may move to the folding posture after being detached from the arm. In the present invention, in order to prevent such a phenomenon, the locking part of at least one of the clothes-drying tools is configured with a hook part that can be engaged from below with the connecting rod of the other clothes-drying tool, and the both leg rods are more than the installation posture. Therefore, it is possible to stably hold the clothes dryer in the first clothes drying position.

一方の脚パイプの脚部と、該脚部に隣接する他方の脚パイプの脚部とを連結する連結紐を設け、該連結紐の長さを一方の物干し具の係止部の回動軌跡が他方の物干し具の連結ロッドに干渉しない位置まで、両脚パイプを設置姿勢よりも開脚させた状態で緊張状態となるように長さ設定することも好ましい実施の形態である。第１物干し姿勢から第２物干し姿勢に姿勢を切換える際には、一方の物干し具の係止部の回動軌跡が他方の物干し具の連結ロッドに干渉しない位置まで、両脚パイプを設置姿勢よりも開脚させることになるが、このとき両脚パイプを開脚しすぎて、第２物干し姿勢への切換えが円滑に実施できない可能性があるので、連結紐で両脚パイプの開脚量を規制して、両脚パイプが開脚しすぎないように構成することが好ましい。 A connecting string is provided to connect the leg part of one leg pipe and the leg part of the other leg pipe adjacent to the leg part, and the length of the connecting string is set to the rotation trajectory of the locking part of one clothes dryer. It is also a preferred embodiment that the length is set so that the two leg pipes are in a tensioned state in a state where the legs are opened from the installation posture until the position does not interfere with the connecting rod of the other clothesline. When switching the posture from the first clothes drying position to the second clothes drying position, the both leg pipes are moved from the installed posture to the position where the rotation trajectory of the locking part of one clothes drying device does not interfere with the connecting rod of the other clothes drying device. Although the legs will be opened at this time, it may be impossible to smoothly switch to the second clothes-drying posture because the legs of the legs are too wide, so the amount of legs of the legs of the legs should be regulated with a connecting string. It is preferable that the two leg pipes are constructed so as not to open too much.

前記係止手段として、一方の物干し具の複数のアームロッドのうちの特定のアームロッドに、他方の物干し具の枢支ロッドに下側から係止可能な係止部を形成し、他方の物干し具の複数のアームロッドのうちの特定のアームロッドに、一方の物干し具の枢支ロッドに下側から係止可能な係止部を形成することもできる。この場合には、両物干し具をそれぞれ独立に展開姿勢に切換えることが可能となるので、両物干し具を展開姿勢に保持して、タオル類を両物干し具のアームロッドに掛けることができるとともに、片側の物干し具のみを展開姿勢に保持してタオル類を干すことも可能となる。 As the locking means, a specific arm rod among the plurality of arm rods of one clothes dryer is formed with a locking portion that can be locked to the pivot rod of the other clothes dryer from below, and the other clothesline A locking portion that can be locked from the lower side to the pivot rod of one of the clothes drying tools can be formed on a specific arm rod among the plurality of arm rods of the tool. In this case, since it becomes possible to switch both clothes-dryers independently to the deployed position, while holding both clothes-dryers in the deployed position, towels can be hung on the arm rods of both clothes-dryers, It is also possible to hang towels by holding only the clothesline on one side in the deployed position.

前記連結軸にスリーブを回転自在に外装することもできる。この場合には、第２物干し姿勢に切換えた物干し器の倒立Ｖ字状の頂部にスリーブが配置されることになるので、物干し器に干し掛けるマット類の位置を調整するときに、スリーブを回転させながら位置調整できるので、脚パイプを横倒しにする方向への荷重を少なくしつつ、マット類の位置調整が可能となる。 A sleeve can be rotatably mounted on the connecting shaft. In this case, since the sleeve is placed on the inverted V-shaped top of the clothes dryer that has been switched to the second clothes-drying position, the sleeve is rotated when adjusting the position of the mats to be placed on the clothes dryer. Therefore, the position of the mats can be adjusted while reducing the load in the direction of lying down the leg pipe.

本考案に係る物干し器によれば、第１物干し姿勢に切換えることで、タオルやバスタオルなどのタオル類を干すことができ、また第２物干し姿勢に切換えることで、玄関マットやバスマットなどのマット類も安定性良く干すことができ、しかもマット類の上面側だけでなくアームロッド間の隙間を通じてマット類の下面側も外部に露出するので、効率的にマット類を乾かすことができる。更に、平板状に折り畳んで、家具と壁間の隙間等のデッドスペースを利用してコンパクトに収納することができる。また、パイプと金属ロッドなどの安価に入手可能な材料を用いて容易且つ安価に製作できる。 According to the clothes dryer according to the present invention, towels such as towels and bath towels can be dried by switching to the first clothes drying position, and mats such as entrance mats and bath mats can be switched to the second clothes drying position. The mats can be dried with good stability, and not only the upper surfaces of the mats but also the lower surfaces of the mats are exposed to the outside through the gaps between the arm rods, so that the mats can be efficiently dried. Furthermore, it can be folded into a flat plate and can be stored compactly using a dead space such as a gap between the furniture and the wall. Moreover, it can be manufactured easily and inexpensively using inexpensively available materials such as pipes and metal rods.
