Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a clothes drying device that can be easily folded and unfolded.

An object of the present invention is to provide a foldable clothes drying rack that can be folded and unfolded with a few operations.

In order to satisfy the above object, the present invention is constructed as follows.

That is, the present invention has one main rod 3 in which several support rods 1 are foldably pivoted by pins 2, an operating rod 4 rotatably connected to the upper end of the main rod 3, and an inner cam 5. A guide cover 9 has a cam cylinder 6 that is loosely inserted into the rod 4, a pipe portion 9' that is fitted inside the cam cylinder 6, and has a guide hole 8 for allowing the clothes rod 7 to protrude radially, and a guide cover. a supporting frame 11 which is installed under the inner cam 5 and has a protruding hole 10 for the clothes rod 7 which is fitted to the upper end flange 6' of the cam cylinder 6 and slidably fitted to the outside of the operating rod 4; The protrusion 12 that touches the operating rod 4
A foldable clothes drying device is characterized in that a coil spring 14 is provided to project between the lower end of the cam cylinder 6 and the stepped portion 13 of the operating rod 4 in order to bring the projection 12 into pressure contact with the inner cam 5. The structure of the inner cam 5 of the cam cylinder 6 is shown in Fig. 5A.
, B, and C, various shapes can be selected.

Type A consists of an inclined surface 5a and vertical surface 5b provided alternately, Type B has a sawtoothed sloped surface 5'a to prevent it from returning by a spring 13, and Type C has a stopper 5C at the apex of the sloped surface 5a. It is formed.

In the case of A, when folding the unfolded clothes rod by the action described later, the cam cylinder 6 is manually turned at once and the cam cylinder is lowered against the spring. Sawtooth 5'
It is designed in a stepped manner so that the protrusion 12 is temporarily stopped by a, so that it does not have to be rotated all at once as in A.

Furthermore, the protrusion 12 is stopped by a stopper 5C and will return to its original position if you release your hand without moving any further.

In the figure, 15 is a shaft formed at the base end of the clothes rod 7 and the support frame 11
It fits into the inner notch 16 of the holder and is stabilized in the protruding position.

The support frame 11 has the above-mentioned protrusion hole 10 cut out from the upper frame 11a having an inner notch 16 and the lower frame 11b having a large number of guide pieces 17 of the rods 7 arranged in radial rows, and both the upper and lower frames 11a, 1
1 Fix b with adhesive.

Reference numeral 18 denotes a screw at the lower end of the operating rod 4, on which a receiving piece 20 is provided, which is formed into the main rod 3 and is screwed into the internal threaded portion 19.

Reference numeral 21 denotes a hanging hand, which is an operating rod 4 having a cross-shaped cross section.
Continuously installed at the top of the.

22 indicates the clip at the end of the clothesline. The support rod 1 is formed to have a U-shaped cross section, and a hook pin 23 is provided in the middle part as shown in FIG. is loosely inserted, and the lifting plate 25 and the hooking pin 23 are connected by the connecting rod 26, and the lifting plate 25 rises to the position of the stopper 24 to restrict the opening of the supporting leg 1 and at the same time reinforcing the supporting leg 1. be.

Then, as shown by the dashed line in the figure, the lifting plate 25 is lowered and the connecting rod 2 is moved so that the supporting rod 1 can be folded smoothly.
Reference numeral 6 indicates that the supporting leg rod 1 is tilted downward toward the elevating plate 25 in an open state.

Since the present invention has the structure described above, when the cam cylinder 6 is gripped and surrounded by the hand in the operating condition shown in FIG. Then, the cam cylinder 6 is lowered.

At this time, the support frame 11 is lowered together by the collar 6' of the cam cylinder 6.

Since the rod 7 is thus supported by the shaft 15, it gradually stands in an arc with the lower edge 8' of the guide hole 8 of the guide cover 9 as a fulcrum, and when the cam cylinder is released, it is shown in FIG. The laundry rod stands up to the state shown by the dotted chain line, and then falls to the state shown by the chain line in FIG. 2 due to the weight of the support frame 11 and the clothes rod 7.

Next, when unfolding the folded clothes rod, the cam tube that was released as described above has returned to its original position due to the action of the coil spring, so the lower frame 11b of the support frame 11 should be held in place by hand. When it is raised, the clothes rod 7 rises together with the support rod 11, and when it reaches the position indicated by the two-dot chain line in FIG. 3, the clothes rod unfolds under its own weight because the shaft 15 is on the inside.

When unfolded, the lever 7, support frame 11, and guide frame 8 are designed to rotate freely.
