CLOTHES-DRAINING DEVICE.
Specification of Letters Patent. I Patented Oct. 17, I916.
Application filed June 27, 1916. Serial No. 106,216.
To all whom it may concern: I
Be it known that I, AUGUST LAFOURQADE, a subject of the President of France, residing at New York, in the county of New York and State of New York, have invented new and useful Improvements in Clothes- Draining Devices, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to clothes draining devices for wash tubs, particularly stationary wash tubs and it has for its principal object the provision of a device of this character which may be applied to a suitable part of the tub and arranged thereon whereby the washed clothes as they are taken from the tub may be supported in an elevated position thereabove and drained.
Another object of the invention resides in the provision of a device of this character which will be simple, strong and durable and of a folding design in order that its parts may be made to assume a relatively compact package when not in use.
IVith the above and other objects in view which will appear as the nature of the invention is better understood, the same consists in the improved construction and novel arrangements of parts which will hereinafter be fully described and particularly pointed out 'in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings has been illustrated a single and preferred'form of the invention, it being, however, understood that no limitation is necessarily made to the precise structural details therein exhibited, but that changes, alterations and modifications within the scope of the claims may be resorted to when desired.
In the accompanying drawings :-Figure 1 is a side view of a portion of a tub showing the .application of the invention thereto. Fig. 2 is a plan viewof the device. Fig. 3 is a vertical section therethrough.
The device consists principally of a drain receptacle 1, which may be applied to any suitable point upon a wash tub or arranged in such proximity to the tub as to permit the drain water to pass therefrom and into the I I tub. In the present instance the receptacle is shown to include an attaching wall 2, which depends from the front of the receptacle. It is provided with suitable openings 3, through which the ordinary faucets of a tub structure can be extended as shownin Fig. .1. In this manner, I propose to sup port the receptacle from the faucets. Howfront wall of the tubvasshown.
The clothes are adapted to be arranged upon a grating which is built up within the receptacle 1, and as shown, it consists of identical bars 66, having vertical end extensions 7, removably fitted in horizontal eyes 8, which extend from the side walls of the receptacle. The eyes 8, 0f the rear rod are arranged in a lower elevation than the eyes of the next adjacent rod so that the clothes may be supported at an angle, providing a relatively large space between the clothes and the bottom of the receptacle so that the water may freely flow to the bottom of the receptacle and find an escape through the passage 5. In addition to the bars 6, I employ a bar 9, having end extensions 10, which are removably fitted in eyes 11, on the end walls of the receptacle. These extensions have vertical portions 12, which rise above the top of the receptacle in order that they may serve as guards. In this manner, it is seen that when the clothes are stacked upon the grating, they will be held against shifting to one side of the receptacle and falling from the receptacle accidentally. V
When the clothes are washed they can be taken from the tub and immediately placed over the grating in the draining receptacle 1.. The water will freely flow into the receptacle and back into the tub as will be seen. In this manner, the laborious operation of wringing the clothes by hand will be fully eliminated. When the device is not in use, the bar 9, can be removed from the eyes 11, and placed in a horizontal position in the receptacle and any suitable cover member. (not shown), can be used to close the upper end ofthe said receptacle. and the device madeto assume an attractive and finished appearance.
i the receptacle.
That is claimed as new is I 1. A clothes drainer comprising a receptacle, a bar located thereln and spaced above the botto n thereof, saidloar haying end portions which prQ eGtab ethe sideaedges of 2'. A clothesdrainer comprising a receptremities .Which are detachably received in the eyes.
In-testimony whereof I, aflix my signature.
AUGUST LAFOURGADE.
