UNITED stares JOHN MACFARLANE, OF RIVERSIDE, CALIFORNIA. i
CLOTHES DRIER.
Application filed April 13, 1927. Serial No. 183,455.
vThe present invention is directed to improvements in clothes driers, and the like.
The primary object of the invention 18 to provide a device of this character so constructed that a number of washed articles can be effectively suspended for drying, the construction. being such that thedevice'will occupy a small space, but will afford maximum space for hanging the articles to be dried.
Another object of the invention is to provide a device of this character including a plurality of hangers which may be elevated or lowered to permit articles to be conveniently placed thereon or removed therefrom.
In the accompanying drawing:
Figure 1 is a front elevation of the device.
Figure 2 is a sectional View on line 22 of Figure 1. V
Figure 3 is a sectional View on line 3-3 of Figure 1. 2
Figure 4 is a detail sectional view arm and slat supporting boxing.
Figure 5 is a sectional view on the line 55 of Figure 4.
The device comprises a pair of vertical posts, said posts having journa-led therein upper and lower shafts 2 and. 3, respectively, the latter having a hand wheel 4 carried thereby.
A brace bar 5 connects the upper ends of the posts and serves to maintain them in proper spaced relationship. To the shaft 2 is fixed in spaced relation a pair of sprocket wheels 6 which are alined with the pair of similar wheels 7 fixed to the lower shaft 3, and trained around these wheels are sprocket chains 8.
Upon certain links of the chains 8 are secured the flanges 9 of the plates 10. Engaged upon the plates 10 are the outer ends of the wooden slat-s 11, said slats being secured to the plates by bolts 12 which also serve to secure the flanges 18 of the side plates 14 of the boxing 15, the back 16 of said boxing having ears 17, the purpose of which will later appear.
Pivotally connected intermediate their ends to the side plates 14 by pins 181s a pair of arcuate bars 19, said bars being connected to the ears 17 by coil springs 20. Fixed between the ends of the bars are the outer ends of the arms 21, the free ends of which lie midway the length of the respective slats 11.
Upon the posts are fixed brackets 22 which of the support pairs of spaced rollers 23 and be tween which the chains 8 travel, said rollers serving to guide the chains and also prevent undue movement thereof in. high winds.
In the drawings I have illustrated four pairs of slats and arms, but it will of course be understood that. the number will be in arms and slats. In this manner the articles can be hung to dry without the aid of clothes pins. However, I find it desirable to employ wire lines 24 which have their respective ends secured to the chains 8 and upon which small articles, such as handkerchiefs, can be suspended and retained there 11 by the customary clothes pins.
Upon rotating the shaft 3 through the medium of the hand wheel 4, the chains will be compelled to travel so that the slats and arms can be conveniently raised and lowered, in order that the articles can be conveniently suspended thereon for drying and removed therefrom when dry.
The posts 1 have plates 25 upon their lower ends which may be secured to a porch floor, braces 26 being employed to maintain the posts rigidly in vertical position. It will be of course understood. that the plates 25 and braces 26 will be eliminated when the device is used on the lawn, and at which time the lower ends of the posts may be embedded in the ground.
Having thus described the invention, I claim:
1. A device of the class described comprising a pair of upper and lower sprocket wheels, s rocket chains trained around the wheels, p lates carried by the chains, slats having their respective ends connected with the plates, a pair of arms pivotally connected with each plate, and means for yieldably holding the arms engaged with the slats.
2. A device of the class described comprising a pair of upper and lower sprocket wheels, chains trained around the wheels, plates connected with the chains, slats having their ends fixed t0 the plates, side plates carried bysaid plates and arms pivotally connected with the side plates and means for normally holding the arms yieldably ennamed plates, said arms being normally engaged with the slats. r
4. A device of the class described comprisin -a air of )osts u er and lower shafts journaled in the posts, sprocket wheels fixed to the shafts, cndlesssprocket chains trained around the sprocket wheels, plates connected with the chains, slats extending between the chains and having their ends fixed to the plates, boxings supported by the plates and including side plates and rear plates, arcuate bars pivotally connected intermediate their ends to the side plates, arms having their outer ends fixed to the ends of the bars, and springs connecting the backs of the boxings and bars for holding said arms normally and yieldably engaged with the slats.
5. A device of the class described comprising a pair of sprocket wheels, sprocket chains trained around the wheels, means for imparting movement to the wheels and thus to the chains, slats extending between the chains and having their ends connected with the chains, hars pivotally associated with the slats, and arms having their outer ends fixed to the bars, and means for yieldably holding the arms engaged with the slats. r
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.
