U T D PORTABLE cnornnsnncx.
Application filed. Decen1be1"17,'1924=. Serial No. 756,502.
This'invention relates to improvements in clothes racks and has for its prnnary ob ect tofprovide a simple and efficient means for receiving andv supporting clothes which have been washed for the ing th'e same. 7 I 7 One of the important objects of the pres ent invention is to provide a portable clothes purpose of dryrack. which is of such construction as to en-' ablea number of pieces of wet clothes to be placed on the rack, inside of the house or the like, the rack being-then adapted tobe taken out and placed on the line, means being associated with the rack for attaching the same to a clothes line. This obviates the necessity of the person having to stand outside while hanging wet clothes on the clothes line and heingsubjected to either the hot sun or cold weather. 7
A further object of the invention is to provide a portable clothes line which is of such construction as to enable the same to be readily and easily assembled or disassembled, the same being further simple in construction, inexpensive, strong and durable, and further well adapted for the purpose for which it is designated.
Other objects and advantages of this invention will become apparent during the course of the following description.
In the accompanying drawing, forming a part of this specification, and in which like numerals designate like parts throughout the same: l
Figure 1 is an end elevation of the clothes line embodying my invention, and
Figure 2 is' a side elevation.
In the drawing, wherein for the purpose of illustration is shown the preferred em bodiment of my invention, the numeral 1 designates a base and extending upwardly therefrom is the vertical standard 2. A block 3 is supported on the upper end of the standard and is adapted for rotation thereon, the block having a longitudinally extending channel 4 provided in the upper face thereof, for the purposes to be presently apparent; The'main frame 5 comprises the side barsG and 7 respectively, which are secured together in vertical spaced relation, by means of the upper and lower cross rods 8 and 9 respectively. 'The main frame 5, just described, is adaptedto be supported, in a substantially vertical position, by resting the intermediate portion of the upper cross rod 8 in the longitudinally extending clude the side bars '12 and 13.
14 extendshbetween the upper ends ofthe channel of the;block 8,as isciearlyillus-f trated' in Figure 2.:
A-pair of auxiliary frames 10'and 11 respectively, are associated with the main.- frame, and each of the auxiliary frames 111-. A cross rod side bars of each of the. auxiliary frames.
A similar cross rod 15 extends between the lower ends, ofthe side arms of the auxiliary. frames 11. I H I The jauxiliaryflframes are adapted to. be pivo-tally supported at their lower ends on the lower portion of the main frame, and
to this end the lower ends of the side bars of the auxiliary frame 10 are mounted on thelower cross rod 9,. the side bars on the auxiliary frame 10, being disposed adjacent, the sidebarsof the main frame. The lower ends of the side bars of the other auxiliary frames 11 are also mounted on the'lower cross rod'9 of the main frame, and are. further disposed adjacent the inner faces of the side bars of the auxiliary frame 10, in the manner clearly illustrated in F igure he purpose of this arrangement is to provide a means whereby the auxiliary frames may swing outwardly from the main frame, in opposite directions. The auxiliary frames are limited in their outward swinging movement by means of the cables orrropes 16. Each cable is-secured at its respective ends to the side bars of the auxiliary frames adjacent'the'upper ends thereof and extends through a suitable opening provided therefor in each of the side bars of the main frame,'as clearly illustrated in Figure .1. e
A clothes line or the like, shown at 17 in the drawings is adapted to be associated with each of the auxiliary frames, the same extending across the auxiliary frames through the side bars thereof, in a manner as clearly illustrated in Figure 2. The ends of each of the clothes lines are knotted to prevent the displacement of the same, from the auxiliary frames, and furthermore enables the slack to be taken up, whenever necessary.
WVith the parts arranged as shown in the drawings, the wet clothes are hung on the clothes lines of each of the auxiliary frames, while inside ofa house, or wherever the clothes are washed. The rack is then removed from its support and carried to the usual clothes line on the outside of the house,
and by means of the hooks 18 which are secured on the upper end of the side bars of the main frame 1, the rack may be at- V tached on the clothes line on the outside of the house and supported tl'iere'l rom in a suspended position, so that the clothes on the auxiliary frames may be dried.
The provision of a clothes rack of the above mentioned character will enable a person to hang clothes thereon while inside of the house, and thus obviate the necessity of the person having to stand out in the cold or be subjected to the hot sun while hanging wet clothes on. the clothes line, on the outside of the house. Furthermore, the simplicity with which my device is constructed enables the same to be readily and easily set up. for use, and when not in use, the parts are folded, in such a manner as not to occupy any considerable amotuitof space thus enabling the clothes line to be stored away in. any convenient place.
block supported on the upper end of the. standard and adapted for rotation thereon,
said block being provided with longitudinally extending channel in the upper face thereof, the intermediate portion. of the top of the clothes rack being adapted to rest in the channel whereby the clothes rack removably suspended by the block and: adapted for rotation therewith.
In testimony whereof I aifix my signature;
CHARLES H. MERCIER;
