L. L. STREET. ADJUSTABLE CLOTHES LINE POLE.
APPLICATION FILED JUNE 22, 1915.
Patented Dec. 14, 1915.
5 m 5 MW COLUMBIA PLANOGRAPH C0.I WASHINGTON, D. C.
LORENA L. STREET, or FALCONER, NEW YORK.
ADJUSTABLE CLOTHES-LINE POLE.
I specification of Letters Patent. Patented Dec. 114, 1915.
Application filed June 22, 1915. Serial No. 35,590.
To all whom it may concern: Be it known that I, LoRnNA L. STREET, a citizen of the United States, residing at Falconer, in the county of Chautauqua and State of New York, have invented new and useful Improvements in Adjustable Clothes- Line Poles, of which the following is a specification.
The invention contemplates the provision of a clothes line support primarily intended for use in connection with the veranda of a building, and especially handy for airing bedding or other clothing. The pole may also be used for outdoor purposes in which instance a socket may be sunk into the earth or embedded in cement, to receive the pole, the socket to be closed by a hinged cover when not in use to exclude dirt or other foreign material. 7
An important object of the invention is the provision of a device of this character in the nature of a sectional pole, detachably mounted upon the veranda roof and supported by the railing. The sections being separable whereby the pole when removed from the veranda may be separated so as to occupy a comparatively small amount of space when not in use.
Other objects will appear as the nature of the invention is better understood, from the following description wherein the structure is set forth in detail.
In the drawing forming part of this application, like numerals of reference indicate similar parts in the several views and where- Figure 1 is a fragmentary view of a veranda roof, and railing showing the application of my invention. Fig. 2 is a view of the pole with cross arm removed. Fig. 3 is a View of the cross arm. Fig. 4: is a detail view of the fastening element.
Referring more particularly to the draw ing A indicates the veranda of a building upon which the pole 5 is primarily intended to be supported, a bracket 6 of any suitable construction being secured to the lower rail 7 of the veranda and adapted to receive the lower end of the pole 5, a clamp 8 being secured to the upper rail of the veranda and adapted to receive the lower end of the pole 5, a clamp 8 being secured to the upper rail of the veranda and adapted to embrace the pole in the manner shown to assist in supporting the pole in position.
The pole may be constructed from any suitable material and of any desired formation in cross section, being formed with a reduced upper end portion 9, the latter being threaded as shown and with which is adjustably associated the nut 10 for holding the cross arm 11 in position on the upper end of the pole.
- The pole is formed adjacent its upper end with a flange 12 upon which the cross arm 11 is supported, the latter being provided with a central opening to receive the upper end of the pole and subsequent to the association of these parts, the nut 10 is threaded upon the reduced'end portion 9. The nut 10 is provided with a hook-like extension 13 disposed between and in aline with the hook-like eX- tension 14: on the caps 15 secured to the opposlte ends of the cross piece 11. The caps 15 may be removably positioned upon the cross piece 11 if so desired and secured in any suitable manner.
It is to be understood that two of these polesare to be employed, and mounted upon the veranda at spaced intervals, and clothes line (not shown) connecting respective hooks of each pole, or in any manner suiting the person putting up the line. As above stated, the device is primarily intended for use indrying washings, airing bedding and clothing, this saving the hard labor of carrying bedding, etc., down and up stairs for that purpose. In fact, it serves the purpose of any clothes line, and makes cleaning up times easier, and when not in use may readily and easily be removed from the veranda railing by merely lifting the pole out of engagement with the bracket 6 and clamp 8. The cross arm 11 may be left on or separated from the poleby merely removing the nut 10, so that the device will occupy a comparatively small amount of space in a closet or in any other place wherein it is kept.
- It is believed that from the foregoing description, the nature and advantages of the invention will be thoroughly understood without requiring a more extended explanation and therefore the same has been omitted.
