BERNHABD F. ZILISCH, OF WATERTOWN, WISCONSIN.
CLOTHESLINE SUPPORT,
Application filed February 9, 1923.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, BERNHARD F. ZiLIsoH, a citizen of the United States, and resident of Watertown, in the county of Jefferson and State of Wisconsin, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Clothesline Supports; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof.
The invention comprises a horizontal framework for carrying stretches of clothes line and supports for the framework, each of the supports being received in a socket in a concrete foundation, and the portions of the framework being separable from the supports and from each other.
, A primary object of the invention is the provision of a strong, durable, and simple clothes line frame, which facilitates stringing of the clothes line and supports the line. The frame work and supports are such are adapted to carry a very considerable weight, and the tubular supports are rigidly maintained in their sockets without danger of collapse.
An object of the invention is the provision of a structure, the parts of which may be readily assembled. Thirteen pipe sections are provided, including the tubular .sup-.
ports. The supports are capable of rapid insertion into the sockets provided therefor. The braces which, make up the framework are readily positioned, convenient engaging joints being provided for this purpose. The parts are comparatively light in weight, and the efforts of only one person are required in assembly. Similarly, the structure may be taken down, the joints being such as to facilitate this connection. 7
An object of the invention is the provision of a structure adapted to be covered with rugs and to support the rugs without danger of damage thereto, there being no projecting knobs or other parts of a kind adapted to cause damage. This construction facilitates the usage of the device as a sum mer house, the framework being covered suitably. t
An object of the invention is the provision of a framework,- adapted to be lowered from Serial No. 617,907.
a high position in which they brace the structure, to a comparatively low horizontal position, wherein they may be used as a support for a mattress, planks being provided extending from one brace member to the other. If desired, the brace members in their lowered position may serve as a bench.
With the above and other objects in view, which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the novel construction, combination and arrangement of parts substantially as hereinafter described and more particularly defined by the appended clainrs, it being understood that such changes in the precise embodiment of the herein disclosed invention may be made as come within the scope of the claims.
In the accompanying drawing is illustrated one complete example of the physical embodiment of the present invention constructed according; to the best mode so far devised for the practical application of the principles thereof.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the supports in their assembled position.
Figure 2 is an elevation of a middle support, showing a longitudinal bracing section and a portion of a transverse brace.
Figure 3 is a section on the line 33 of Figure 2.

Figure 7 is a detailed end view of a longitudinal brace. a
The supports 10 10 and 12 12 are preferably spaced quite a ways. apart and an intermediate pair of supports 11 and 11' are provided, as shown in Figure1,the support 11 aligning" with supports 10 and. 12 and the supports it aligning with supports 10 and 12. The supports 10 and 10 are joined by a transverse brace 13 and the supports 12 and 12 are joined by a trans verse brace 17. These end transverse braces are respectively provided "with hooks 1 1- and 18 which are regularly spaced along such braces. The supports 11 and 11 are provided with an intermediate transverse brace 15. This transverse brace carries a plurality of retainers which align with the respective hooks 1 1 and 18. Each of these retainers or guiding means is formed of a pair of upstanding cars 16 and 16 (.see Fig ure 2) which are spaced a slight distance apart, and which converge so as to provide a contacted upper entrance throat therebetween. It is intended that a plurality of stretches of cloth-es lines be strung between successive pairs of hooks 1 1 and 18 and that the intermediate portion of these clothes lines he received between the ears 16 and 16 v of the retainers on the intermediate brace 15. Longitudinal brace 19, extends between sup ports 10 and 11. Brace 20 extends between supports 11 and 12. A brace 19 extends between supports 10 and 1.1 and brace 20 extends between supports 11 and 12. A concrete foundation 21 is provided, having spaced socket members 22 therein, asocket member being provided for each of the sup ports, snugly receiving the end of the sup port, which is limited in downward movement by collar 23. The supports are thus securely mounted in position and the co.- operative relationship of the supports and bracesis such as'to provide a secure and rigid framework, adapted to sustain a very considerable ,weight, to which the clothes line might be subjected.
Threaded on support 10 is a ferrule 24, having a pair of keyhole openings thereon, spaced substantially 90 degrees apart. Threaded in brace 13 is a plug 25, having a shoulder 26, contacting with the end of the brace. The plug is insertable thru one of the keyhole openings of ferrule 2 and is provided with a lateral projecting finger .27. Support 10 is provided with a similar plug to plug 25. Inassembling the braces 13, the plug on one end is inserted into one of the ferrules 24 and 28. Then the plug at the other end is inserted in an opening in the otherferrule. The openings are of keyhole shape and permit insertion of the fingers 27; After the ends of the plugs have beeninserted, the brace is rotated so as to bring the finger 2'? in contact with the inner cylindrical surfaceofthe ferrule. The contact of the shoulder 26,.with the exterior of the ferruleli-mits the rotation of the brace, so that the hooks 1 1 arennaintained inisub- .'v i is l a: u t 1 2 i l sheave 1 ,-,ss iws rt bledue ith aisupports 3.1 mi?! i 1 thesa iue ma peshrace 13: a 1 .S i nsi,a-a 1. a e providedmwithi fernee tees rules 2929 respectively. Each of the ferrules has three keyhole openings therein.
the manner in which brace 19 is carried by support 10. Brace 19 is removably attached with respect to ferrules 24c and'29 by inserting plug 3r into the opening in ferrule 2 1, then by rotating the brace until the fin er 35 carried b the hi contacts with the inner surface of the ferrule. A plug on the other end of brace 19 is then inserted into the opening in ferrule 29 and urged downwardly, so as to positionthe neck of the plug in the narrow portion of the opening. The brace is thus prevented from rota tion and is incapable ofrelease from ferrule 24 with which it is securely locked. The manner of locking isisuch asto effectually eliminate all danger of collapse of the structure, so that it is maintainedrigidly in place.
Support 11 is providedwith an opening 36 spaced slightly above the foundation 21. Supports 1010 and 11 are provided each 1 with a similar opening: Brace19 may be readily removed from ferrules 28 and '29,
and positioned in the lower openings in supports 10 and 11. Similarly, brace 19 'may be lowered. The arrangement of supports in the lowered position is indicated in dotted lines in Figure 1. Planks 37 and 38 may be extended between the braces 1919 for supporting a mattress 39, or if desired,
the'braces be made to serve asa bench.
Ferrule 24 and each of the other ferrules is rounded slightly at the top and projects.
only a short distance upwardly beyondthe braces, so that rugs maybe drawn over the framework without danger of damage to them, as there, are no projecting parts of suchnatureas to cause danger of tearing the .fabric. The framework may be suitably covered and is then adapted to serve as a summer house. y
