CLOTHES-HANGING APPARATUS.
Application filed June 6,
This invention relates to improvements in clothes hanging apparatus, and has for one of its objects to provide a simple and improved apparatus by means of which clothes may be hung outdoors on a line without necessitating a person leaving the house.
Another object is to so construct and mount the apparatus in the wall of a room that when said apparatus is not being used it can be conveniently moved to an inoperative position and when in such position cold air will be effectively excluded from the room.
The above and other objects will appear more clearly from the following detailed description, when taken in connection with the accompanying drawing, which illustrates a preferred embodiment of the inventive idea.
In the drawing- Figure 1 is a fragmentary perspective view of the apparatus constructed in accordance with the invention and shown in its operative position;
Figure 2 is a similar view of the apparatus shown in its inoperative position;
Figure 3 is a view partly in section and partly in front elevation, the section being taken substantially on the line 3-3 of Figure 1, and the outer closure of the apparatus being shown in its operative or closing position;
Figure 4 is a sectional View taken onflthe line t-4: of Figure 3; and a Figure 5 is a section on the line 5-5 of Figure 3. V p
The apparatus of the present invention is capable of being mounted in a wall 6 of a room and is provided therein with an opening 7 in which is fitted the casing 8 of the apparatus. This casing is made ofa size suitable to permit clothes which have been hung upon a line to pass therethrough and has its outer portion projecting beyond the exterior of the wall and its inner portion provided with a flange 9 engageable with. the inner surface of the wall to form a seal about the edge of the opening 7. The bottom of the casing 8 is preferably inclined downwardly and outwardly, as bestshown in Figure 4, so that the casing will effectively drain in the event that rain or snow should enter the outer end thereof.
The casing is provided with an outer removable closure 10 which, when in position, is mounted intermediate theinner and outer ends of the casing and abuts against the 1924.. Serial No. 718,328.
bead 11 extending about the inner wallof tire casing. The'closure 10 carries a pivoted latch 12 the ends of which are capable of being swung into recesses 13 formed'in the side walls of the casing 8 so as to effectively retain the closure in its operative position. By swinging the latch 12 so as to disengage the same from the recesses 13 it will be obvious that the closure 10 may be withdrawn into a room when it is desired to use the apparatus. An inner closure 14: in the form of a door is hinged at 15 to the casing'and is capable of being swung to the position shown inFigure 2 to form a further closure for the inner end of the casing and may be held in such position by a hook 16 carried by the casing and engageable with an eye 17 secured to the adjacent edge of the door. 7
Hinged at 18 to the top of the casing and at the inner end thereof is a. supporting arm 19 capable of being swung to a verticallposition when not in'use, as shown in Figure 2, and to a horizontal inwardly extending position, as illustrated in Figure 1, in which latter position said arm is supported by a flexible element 20, such as a chain, one'end of which is connected to the free end of the arm and the other end to the wall '6 above the casing. When the arm 19 is in inoperative position a hook 21 may be emlo ed to en a e an e e 22 ad'acen't the free P y e e 3 1 end of the arm. The free end of the arm 19 supports a suitable pulley 23 about which extends the clothesline 24: which is projected through'the casing 8 and connected at any desired distance from the house with another pulley similar to the pulley 23 which may be carried by a post or standard.
VVhen the clothesline is in its operative position considerable slack in the line usually exists which will permit of the arm 19 being swung to its inoperative'position and in so doing the line will be drawn taut. In order that the line will not interfere with the complete closing of the closure 14 the upper end of the casing is provided with a notch 25 in which the clothesline 2% will engage, as shown in Figure 2. After the arm 19 has been'swung to its inoperative position the closure'lO may be placed in closing position and, as shown in Figures 3 and 4, said closure is of such a length as to provide asmall .space between the upper end thereof and the top of the casing 8 for receiving the clothesline 2 1.
With the closure 10 in yosition and the door It closed, it will he obvious that air from the outside oi the house will he etteetively prevented from entering through the casing and that when the apparatus in operation u person iiiu conveniently hung clothes upon the line i l and then pass the some through the eating 8 to he hungoutdoors without leaving the room. Likewise, it will be obvious thut when it 1E5 desired to remove the clothes from the line the some may be drawn through the easing into the interior or? the room.
What claimed is:
In at clothes hanging apparatus, a casing eupuhle of being mounted in the Wall of a room :1 elothesliue supporting arm hingedly etmiieeteil to .Eultl arising mid movable to horizontal and vertical poeitions with res ieet thereto within the room and capable of supporting u (IlOlllItSllllG which is extended through said casing; and a closure for the inner end ot the eusiug said casing having it iioteh in its upper iuuer time for receiving the clothesline when the supporting arm is; swung to the vertical position whereby said hue will not interfere with the complete closing 01 Silltl. closure.
