PENNSYLVANIA COMBINATION IMPLEMENT Application filed May 2,
The present invention appertains to new and useful improvements in combination implements, and more particularly to a novel combination of clothes prop and clothes line cleaner. The principal object of the invention is to provide a novel clothes prop which can be adjusted for use with clothes lines of varying height.
Another object of the invention is vide a clothes prop which may be employed forsupporting means for cleaning a clothes line. is
These and other important objects invention will become more apparent to the reader after considering the invention as described and claimed hereinafter;
In the drawings:
Figure l representsa view disclosing the implement being employed for cleaning a clothes line.
Fig. 2 represents a fragmentary sid elevational sectional view. I
Fig. 3 represents an enlarged fragmentary edge elevation of the structure.
Fig. 4 represents a fragmentary side elevational view of the device.
Referring to the drawings wherein like numerals designate like parts, it will be seen that the present invention as a clothes line prop, includes a pair of elongated bars 5 and 6. One of said bars is provided with a pointed end 7 and this part is also provided "throughout its major portion of its intermediacy wlth a longitudinally extendlng slit 8.
The end portion of the complementary bar 6 ad acent the pointed end 7 of the bar 5 has a threaded member-'9 protruding therefrom and through the slit 8. A wing nut 10 is engageable on the threaded member 9 for clamped engagement against the outer side of the bar 5 for maintaining the two bars in a set position.
A U-shaped guidemember 11 has the end portions of its leg 12-12 secured to the opposite end portion of the bar 5, while the adjacent end portion of the bar 6 is slidable through the guide 11 and is provided with a V-shaped notch 13 into which the clothes line 14, shown in Figure 1 may be engaged, when the device is employed as a prop.
.to prof the 1929. Serial No. 359,908.
h. Ushaped member is disposed in tly oblique manner clearly shown 0 es Eland 8. For having the member ed i this ma .ner, the same may be clothes line in a manner shown 11 aged over in Figure Ti'ithout likelihood of the same becoming easily disengaged. A cloth strip 17 is engaged over the bight portion of the member and is draped over the clothes line 14 in themanner clearly shown in Figure 7 so that by sliding the member 15 along the clothes line, the latter will be efiiciently cleaned. I I
It will thus be seen that we have provided a combination adjustable clothes prop and clothes line cleaner, and it is contended that this device can be manufactured at a very low cost and retailed at a price well within the economic demand of the public for such an article. Obviously, numerous changes in the specific shape, size, and materials may be resorted. to in the construction of the novel device without d parting from the spirit and scope of the invention claimed hereinafter.
l-lavin g tnus described the invention, what we claim new and. desire to secure by Let tors Patent is acent the notched end 18 of the bar- 'A clothes line cleaner comprising-ahandle,
U-shaped member'forming an "acute angle with they handle, whereby the clothes li re,
may be readily retained in the crotch formed between the arms and the handle, the cloth being disposed so that it presses on the clothes line on one side, the U-shaped member and handle on theother side afiiording a backmg for the clothto resist movement thereof.
In testlmony whereof we affix our signatures.
