Application led May 19, 1922. Serial No. 562,247.
To allwlwm t may concern: y
Be it known that I, ANGUS F. HANNEY, a citizen of the United States, and a resif dent of the city of Chicago, county of Cook, and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements :in Laundry-Sorting Appliances, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to laundry sorting appliances and has for its `object the provision ofa sorting rack for garments which previously have had identification means attached thereto, said rack being arranged to release the identification means when placed thereon, and at kthe same time retain the garments in connection with the identiication means; and when desired the garments may be released from the rack simulvt aneously.
Other objects will appear hereinafter.
The invention consists in the combina-- tions and arrangements of parts hereinafter described and claimed. v.
The invention will be best understood by reference to the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specification, and in which,
Fig. 1, is a side elevation of the invention showing the same in operative position in full lines and in inoperative position in dotted lines, 4
Fig. 2, is a section. on line 2 2, F ig. 1i,
Fig. 3, is a detail view of a latching device used in connection with the invention,
Fig. 4, is a top plan view of the invention,
Fig. 5, is a fragmentary view of the invention showing parts of same in section,
Fig. 6, is a section on the line 6-6, Fig. 5 and 7F ig. 7, is a view partly in section of the identification .means used in connection with ythe invention, showing the interior mechanism thereof.
The preferred form of construction comprises an arm 10, pivoted at 11 to a suitable bracket 12 fastened by any suitable means to a support 13, such arm preferably being reinforced by means of a truss 14, as shown. The arm 10 in r effect forms an auxiliary supporting means to be employed in conjunction with a main supporting means,
hereafter described, disposed there above, and said arm will be broadly referred to in the claims as auxiliary supporting means.
.The upper edge of the arm 10 is preferably provided with a lateral flange 15, and at one side of the Hange 15 is provided an upstandlng rib 16, the purpose of such flange and rib being hereinafter explained.. Preferably straddling the bracket 12 is ay piv' otally lmounted lever 17, which may 1be bifurcated, as shown, the bifurcated ends of such lever preferably being turned and formed into hooks 18, which hooks are adapted to engage pins 19 mounted on the armHlQ, so that the arm is normally held in operative position. As soon as the hooks 18 are disengaged by operating the' lever 17, the arm 10 drops of its own weight.
Preferably mounted .above the arm 10 and in offset position with respectvto the rib 16 thereof is a. receiving rod- 20, which forms the main or stationary supporting means above referred to, and will be broadly referred to in the claims as' supporting means. This rod is preferably fiat and has its outer end bevelled, as shown at 21.` The inner end of the rod 20 preferably extends through a slotted boss 22 mounted. in the bracket 12. The end of the rod 20 preferably has a notch 23 therein adapted to receive a cam portion 24 formed on a 'shaft 25 which extends through the bracket 12, there preferably being a weighted lever 26 on the shaft 25 so as to normally retain the cam portion 24 in engagement with the notch 23.
It is understood that withthe construction so far described various forms of fastening means may be utilized therewith, but the device is particularly adapted for use in connection with 'identification means of the type disclosed in my co-pending application, Serial No. 400,859, filed August 2, 1920. Such identification means preferably consists of a flat casing 27 upon which may be stamped suitable identification indicia. u A member 28 is secured tothe casing so as to project outwardly therefrom, and co-operating with the member 28 is a locking levei` 29 pivoted at the lower side of thetag and preferably having an eyelet yat its free end adapted to t over the member. 28 to hold the tag in engagement with a-garment. The lever 29 and member 28 form holding means which will be broadly! referred to in the claims as retaining means, and` it will be seen that when the auxiliary sup orting means is in inoperative position, the liever 29 tion. Locking means is provided for the lever 29 which consists of alug-I-SO thereon adapted to project into a notch 31 in a spring-held detent 82, such detent being pivvoted at 33 in said casing. The casing is provided with a slot 34 and onel end of the detent 32 is arranged to traverse the lower end of said slot, the arrangement being such that pressure upon said detent releases lever 29 and'permits same to swing outwardly thereby releasing the garment connected thereto. l v
' In use whenL it is-desired to place a garmentv having certain identification meanssimilar to that above described, upon a particular rack the garment is placed at one same thereon in each case releasing the i means for locking the .lever but preventing outward swinging of said lever through contact with the arm l0; When a suitable number of garments has been placed on the rack during sorting and it is desired to remove same from the rack it is only necessary to release the arm 10 by tripping the lever 17, which simultaneously releases the garments fromthe identification means and from the rack, the identification means beingretained upon the rod 20' so" that` all the identification means off one particular kind are conven-` ientlyl arranged forl further use.
Vinile/ have illustrated and described the preferred form of construction Jfor Icarrying my invention into effect, this is capable of variation and modification without departing tromvthe spirit ofv the invention. I, therefore, do Ynot wish to be limited tothe precise details of construction set forth, but desire to avail myself of such variationsand modifications as come within the scope of the appended claims. j
