UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
THOMAS S. `CARY, OF BROOKLYN, NEW YORK.
IMPROVEMENT IN CLOTHES-LINES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 159,076, dated January 26, 1875; application filed October 24, 1874.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, THOMAS S. CARY, of Brooklyn, Kings county, New York, have invented a new and Improved Double Extension Clothes-Line, of which the following is a speciication:
The invention will first be fully described, and then pointed out in the claim.
Figure l represents a plan, showing my inventiou as applied; and Fig. 2 is a sectional side elevation through the line x m.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
In the case here presented I have three pulley-blocks, and use about one-third more rope than is usual in the ordinary clothes-line; but in doing this I am able to extend a double line, on which to hang clothes, with the same labor that it requires to extend a single line.
My invention consists in having a double pulley-block attached at or near one end of a window-sill, and opposite it, at or near the other end of the same window-sill, I have a single pulley-block set on a building or post opposite, through which the traveler-rope runs.
A represents the double pulley-block, and B C single pulley-blocks. The rope, indicated by letter D, is continuous, and passes around the double pulley-block A and pulley O, and at the points E E the rope F is spliced. This rope extends around the double pulley A and pulley B, as shown.
To operate this device, the clothes are placed on the ropes D and F near their juncture E; then, as they are set, the operator draws the rope F in the direction ofthe arrow, which will cause the aforesaid ropes D and F to extend outward simultaneously With their load. Thus, when fully extended, there will be two clotheslines full instead of one, as heretofore, thus saving time, labor, and space, both in extending the line and also in taking in the clothes.
' Having thus described my invention, I claiin as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- The combination ofthe double pulley-block, A, single pu1ley-blocks,B C, and ropes D and F, connected together at the points E and E', as and for the purpose specied.
THOMAS S. CARY.
