Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention hangs an article to be dried, which is flexible, such as clothes, towels, or relatively large sheets, in a state of straddling it in the front and rear direction. The present invention relates to a hanging device for drying provided with a hanging part.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As such a hanging device for drying, there are a hanging device for clothes, a clothesline, etc.
Conventionally, the material to be dried hung on the hanging part hangs along the front and rear edges of the hanging part, and the interval between the hanging parts facing each other under the hanging part depends on the front and rear width of the hanging part. It is relatively close.

[0003]

Therefore, since it is difficult for the drying air to enter into the narrow space between the hanging portions, it is difficult to efficiently dry the material to be dried in a short time. However, since the drying air tends to stay in the narrow space between the hung parts, there is a drawback in that the material to be dried cannot be efficiently dried in a short time. By the way, in recent years, when an outlet for heating air is provided on the ceiling side of a bathroom, an object to be dried is suspended and supported below the outlet, and the heating air is used as the drying air. However, even in such a case, if the drying air does not properly flow inside the object to be dried, it cannot be dried efficiently.

In order to solve this drawback, for example, it is conceivable to widen the width of the hanging portion in the front-rear direction.
In this case, it may be difficult to hang an object to be dried, such as a handkerchief, which has a relatively short length, and it can be attached to and detached from a support, such as a clothes hanger, for drying. In the case of a hanging tool, since the width of the hanging part in the front-rear direction is increased, the hanging tool for drying becomes larger, and thus may be bulky in storage when not in use.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object thereof is to devise the structure of the hanging portion so that the material to be dried can be efficiently dried in a short time and is relatively long. An object of the present invention is to provide a hanging device for drying, which makes it easy to hang an object to be dried having a short length.

Another object is to use a drying hanging device such as a clothes hanger which is detachably attached to a support and used when the drying hanging device is not used. It is to be able to store it in a state that it is not bulky.

[0007]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION A hanging device for drying according to the present invention is a suspending portion for placing a flexible object to be dried in a state of straddling the object to be dried and suspending the object to be dried. The hanging tool for drying is provided with the first characteristic structure, wherein the drying object is protruded to the position in the front-rear direction of the hanging part and is opposed to each other to be dried by the hanging part. A spacer that spreads the interval between the hanging portions is provided so as to be switchable between a state in which the hanging portion is supported in a projecting posture in which the hanging portion projects in the front-rear direction and a state in which the hanging portion is retracted in the vertical position. There is a point.

A second characteristic configuration is that in the first characteristic configuration, the suspension portion is provided with a support portion for detachably supporting the suspension portion with respect to a support body.

A third characteristic structure is that, in the second characteristic structure, the spacer protruding to one of the front and rear positions of the suspension portion and the spacer protruding to the other position are provided. .

A fourth characteristic structure is the same as the second or third characteristic structure, in which a regulation means for regulating the relative movement of the suspension part supported by the support body through the support part with respect to the support body is provided. There is a point.

A fifth characteristic configuration is, in the first, second, third or fourth characteristic configuration, that the upper surface of the spacer supported in the projecting posture and the upper surface of the hanging portion are substantially in series. This is the point at which a continuous article mounting surface is formed.

A sixth characteristic configuration is the first, second, third,
In the fourth or fifth characteristic configuration, the spacer is provided with a void that allows the drying air to pass in the vertical direction in a state where the spacer is supported in the protruding posture.

[0013]

The operation of the first characteristic structure is as follows.
When the spacer is switched to the supporting position in which it is projected in the front-back direction of the hanging part, the space between the hanging parts facing each other of the dried object hung in the hanging part is widened, and this hanging The drying air easily enters the space between the portions, and the entering drying air hardly accumulates.

Further, when the spacer is switched to the retracted position in the vertical direction of the suspending portion, the material to be dried is suspended while suspending along the front and rear edges of the suspending portion having a relatively narrow front and rear width.

According to the second characteristic structure, when the drying hanging device is not used, such as a clothes hanger, the drying hanging device can be removed from the support. At the time of storage, the spacer can be switched to a state in which it is retracted to the vertical position of the hanging portion and stored.

According to the third characteristic structure, when a supporting portion such as a hook for supporting the hanging portion with respect to the supporting body in a swingable state is provided, the weight of the material to be dried which acts on the spacer. Can be hung in a well-balanced manner by operating in a state of being dispersed in the spacers that are projected at both front and rear positions of the hanging portion.

According to the fourth characteristic structure, the relative movement of the suspending portion supported by the supporting body via the supporting portion with respect to the supporting body is restricted, and the suspending portion moves for some reason during drying. It is possible to prevent a situation in which the material to be dried hung on the suspending portion comes into contact with the material to be dried adjacent to each other and hinders the drying of the material to be dried.

According to the fifth characteristic configuration, the article to be dried is placed on the article placing surface which is substantially continuous and is formed by the upward surface of the spacer supported in the protruding posture and the upward surface of the hanging portion. The object to be dried can be suspended and dried in a state where the weight of the object to be dried is dispersed along the object mounting surface.

According to the sixth characteristic configuration, the drying air easily moves between the upper side and the lower side of the spacer supported in the protruding posture.

[0020]

The effects of the first characteristic structure are as follows. By supporting the spacer in a protruding posture that protrudes in the front-back direction of the hanging part, it becomes easier for the drying air to enter into the space between the hanging parts facing each other of the dried object hung in the hanging part. At the same time, since the entrapped drying air is less likely to stay, the material to be dried can be efficiently dried in a short time.

Further, by retracting the spacer to the vertical position of the hanging portion, the material to be dried can be hung in a state of hanging along the front and rear edges of the hanging portion having a relatively narrow front and rear width. Even objects to be dried that have a short length can be easily hung.

In addition to the effect of the first characteristic structure, the effect of the second characteristic structure is obtained when the hanging device for drying is not used.
The drying suspender can be removed from the support, and the spacer can be retracted to the vertical position of the suspending part during storage, so the drying suspender is not used. Sometimes it can be stored in a bulky state.

The effect of the third characteristic structure is, in addition to the effect of the second characteristic structure, a state in which the weight of the material to be dried acting on the spacers is dispersed to the spacers projected at both front and rear positions of the hanging portion. Since the object to be dried can be hung in a well-balanced manner, it is easy to widen the interval between the hanging portions of the object to be dried facing each other, and the object to be dried can be dried more efficiently.

The effect of the fourth characteristic configuration is the second or the third.
In addition to the effect of the characteristic configuration, it is possible to prevent a situation in which an object to be dried hung in the hanging part comes into contact with an adjacent object to be dried and interferes with the drying of each other, so that the object to be dried is more efficiently Can be dried.

The effects of the fifth characteristic configuration are as follows:
In addition to the effects of the third or fourth characteristic configuration, since the weight of the dried object can be hung and dried while being dispersed along the dried object mounting surface, it can be hung on the dried object. The trace of the part is hard to remain as its shape.

The effects of the sixth characteristic configuration are as follows:
In addition to the effects of the third, fourth, and fifth characteristic configurations, the drying air easily moves between the upper side and the lower side of the spacer supported in the protruding posture, so that the material to be dried can be efficiently processed in a shorter time. Can be dried.
