'bsiifiaserrem sat. rarities;
Application'filed March 4, 15a. "ilii iio'f tn fia handkerchiefs, dish cloths, etc., and the gen- I eral object of the invention is to provide a device of this character particularly adapted for holding napkins, dish cloths, etc., in contiguity to a hot water'boiler or like source of heat. a V
A further object is to provide. a very simple device of this character which is made of a single length of wire, which may be readily put in place around the toppart of the hot water tank or boiler. which may be readily removed, and which is particularly convenient and eflective in actual practice.
My invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein Figure l is a fragmentary perspective view of a domestic boiler showing my device appliedthereto;
Figure 2 is a fragmentary perspective view of one end of the device.
Referring to these drawings, it will be seen that my holder. or support is, generally speaking, arcuate in form and provided with a plurality of hooks and adapted to partially surround the upper portion of a hot water boiler and be held in engagement therewith by a spring which extends around the rear portion of the boiler.
In detail, my device is formed of a single length of wire which is arcuately bent to conform to the cylindrical shape of the boiler, this length 10 of wire at one end being formed with an eye 11. The opposite end of the length of wire is bent to form an eye 12 and a coiled contractile spring 13 is permanently engaged with one of these eyes and detachably engaged with the other eye. The length of wire, after the eye- 12 has been formed, is alternately bent to form a plurality of hooks and then extended longitudinally along the wire 10. In detail, the wire, after the eye 12 has been formed, is bent downward and outward, as at 14:, then upward and coiled, as at 15,
then again downward, as at 16, and upward to the wire 10, then across and over I the wire 10, at a very acute angle thereto, as at 17, and then again downward inside of the wire 10, as at 14*, and bent to form r the bill of the next hook with the coi1=15 and so on, the last hook being formed adjacent the eye. 11 and the shank of this last hook being extended upward to the wire l0 and then bent around the wire, as at.
18, so as to clamp it securely in place.
It will be seen that by extending the portion 17 between the hooks over the top of the wire 10 that any weight disposed upon the hook will be borne by the wire 10 as well as by the hook itself and that each I hook is supported at two places] on the wire.
Thus weights disposed upon the hooks will not act to pull the hooks downward away from the wire, this wire 10 constituting a body from which the hooks depend.
It will be seen that this device may be readily applied to the boiler A. by simply unhooking one end of the spring 13, passing. it around the boiler, and again hooking it in'the eye 11. 'The handkerchiefs, towels, I
dish cloths, napkins or other small articles which it is desired to dry'may be hung upon these hooks, and hanging adjacent the boiler receive heat therefrom and will readily dry. It will be seen that this device is very convenient, that itis simply made, and may be cheaply sold.
While I have illustrated details of construction, 1' do not wish to be limited there:
to as itis obvious that these may be modified in many ways without departing from the spirit of the invention, though the par- 1. A device of the character described formed of a single length of wire, the wire being bent to form an arcuate body having eyes at ,its opposite ends, the wire then .being extended beneath the body wire and; bent to form depending hooks having upwardly turned bills, the portion of "wire between said hooks extending over the top of the body wire and normally resting thereon, and a coiled contractile spring permanently engaged at one end with one of said eyes and adapted to be detachably engaged with the other eye.
2. A device of the character described 5 formed of a single length of wire, the wire being bent to form an arcuate body having eyes at its opposite ends, the wire being then extended beneath the body wire and bent to form depending hooks having up signature.
