CHESTER F. SMITH, OF TORRINGTON, CONNECTICUT.
IMPROVEMENT IN CLOTHES-FRAM ES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 1 60,359, dated March 2, 1875; application filed January 25, 1875.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CHEsTER F. SMITH, of Torrington, in the county of Litchfield and State of Connecticut, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Clothes-Driers, of which the following is a specification:
The invention will first be fully described, and then pointed out in the claim.
In the accompanying drawing, Figure 1 is a side view, showing the drier attached to the wall of the room. Fig. 2 shows the same attached to the ceiling. Fig. 3 is a front view, showing the frame folded as when not in use. Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
A' is the frame having two side pieces, B 13, connected together by the rods C, on which rods the clothes are hung. D is a section of the frame, consisting of the side pieces E E, attached to the lower rail of the frame, on which they readily turn, as indicated by the line F, so that the side pieces E E are parallel with the side pieces B B, as seen in Fig. 3. G represents a stop-cleat, which prevents the side pieces E E from dropping below a horizontal position. These pieces E E are connected by one or more rods, H. I are notches to allow them to close onto the rod J, as seen in Fig. 3. This drying-frame is attached to the wall by means of two hooks, K K, and
the section D is turned down and rests against the wall, which throws the frame into an inclined position, as seen in the drawing, to allow the clothes to hang from the rods C clear of the wall, and so as to readily dry. The drying-frame may be suspended from the ceiling of the room by using the brackets L on the ends of the side pieces B B. These brack ets are attached. by joint-pins m, and swing freely in either direction thereon. N is a stud on the brackets, the end of which bears against the ceiling and throws the frame into an inclined position. When used in this manner the section D may be turned up, as seen in Fig. 3.
I prefer to use the drier on the wall, as seen in Fig. 1, as it is less in the way, and when not in use the section D may be turned up and allow the frame to rest flat against the wall, when it will be entirely out of the way.
Having thus described my invention, Iclaim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent The combination, with frame A, of the bracket L, jointed thereto, and having stud N, as and for the purpose described.
CHESTER F. SMITH.
