Application April 17, 1935, Serial No. 16,777
4 claims. (o1. 19a- 34) An object of my invention is to provide an improved form of clothes chute leading fromV an upstairs room into the basement, and in combination with the same means permitting the sweepings from the room being aorded a passageway to the basement, and also means for storage.
This and other features of my invention will be more particularly set forth in the following description and the accompanying drawing, wherein:
Figure 1 is a view in front elevation ofvcmy improved construction.
Figure 2 is a view on the line 2-2 of Figure 1; and
Figure 3 is a sectional view corresponding to Figure 2, of a slightly modified construction.
Referring to the drawing' in detai'L'and particularly to the constructions shown in Figures 1 and 2, Iv provide .a boxing or framework consisting of front and rear walls 2 and 3 and top and bottom walls 4 and 5. This boxing or framework is ordinarily positioned in the wall between two rooms, such wall being indicated by the dotted lines B in Figure 2. The boxing is interiorly divided vertically by a wall 'I to form two passageways 8 and 9, one for clothes and one for floor sweepings, as hereinafter particularly pointed out.
In order to permit clothes to be placed into the chute 8 from both sides, I provide a door I0 in the front wall, a door II in the rear wall, and a door I2 supported above the partition wall l. The boxing above the doors II and I2, as shown in Figure 2, extends upwardly some distance above said doors to form a compartment I3 in which may be supported shelves I4 and may be large enough to form a receptacle for articles, such as a broom I5.
A door I 6 may also be provided in the rear Wall above the door II to form an inlet to the shelves I4.
As it will be apparent, therefore, from one room the opening formed by the door II will be used to drop clothes into the chute, and from the other room the opening of the doors I0 and I2 will permit clothes to be passed into the chute.
The bottom wall I1 of the compartment I3 above the passageway 9 joins. the front wall of the boxing with the central wall 'l to form the top of the passageway 9, a door I8 being hung in an opening in the front wall of the framework at the upper end of the passageway 9. -The bottom of the door opening for the door I8 will be at a level with the oor line I9 so that the floor rsweepings may be lswept through the door opening of the door I 8 into the passageway 9 and dropped into a suitable receptacle 20 positioned in the bottom of the chute. This receptacle, as shown in Figure 2, and specifically illustrated in dotted lines, is removable so that the deposit of dirt may be removed from the chute and emptied.
In order to catch the clothes that drop down through the clothes chute, Ifmay use a bag 2|' supported over the bottom of the chute, as by .clips 22, the bottom wall 5 of the chute being hinged so that it may be dropped, as illustrated by dotted lines in Figure 2, to permit the clothes to drop into the bag. With the bottom wall 5 raised, an opening is afforded between A,Said boi?- tom wall and the bottom of the dust chute to also permit removal of clothes,
'In Figure 3 jI have shown .the construction extended to form chutes long enough to take in two floors. Where this is done the compartment for the shelves will be at the upper end of the construction above the second floor with openings and doors above each of the floors for permitting clothes to be dropped in from either oor and dust to be swept in from either floor. As it will be noted the construction shown in Figure 3 is similar to that in the other figures, except extended in length to take in twolloors and with the added feature of a clothes cabinet 24 supported upon the lower end of the frame.- work in the basement, and taking the place .of the canvas bag shown in Figures 1 and 2. Where the clothes cabinet 24 is used, the same is formed with a door 25 to permit removal of the clothes I.
from the cabinet.
As it will be apparent, by means of my improved features of construction I achieve a number ofVA advantages over the ordinary constructions of clothes chutes: firstly, through the interior construction of clothes and dust passageways or Ychutes being enabled to drop clothes through the The chutes are so constructed that no dustl can get from the dust chute into the clothes 1 chute to aifect the clothes. The particular larrangement of dust and clothes chutes, as shown,
the dust chute keeps any falling dust Afromgetting into the clothes chute, and at the Ysame time Y makes easier removaljof the collected dust and dirt, and the dust inljetropeningsV into the dust i chute 'being' at the floor level permit. the easy sweepingY of all the dirt into the chute, eliminating the inconvenience. of using dust'panarand Y the ike.
