GLOTHESLINE SUPPORT Filed March 27, 1955 J WenZ-OT" JOSEPHCUO DELL Patented Dec. 20, 1938 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 1 Claim.
My invention relates to improvements in clothes line supports.
One object of my invention is to provide a clothes line support that is so constructed that the distance the wires are suspended from the ceiling may be readily adjusted.
A second object of my invention is to provide a clothes line support that may be quickly installed in a basement or room and as easily removed therefrom.
Another object of my invention is to provide a clothes line support adapted to hold a plurality of wires and capable of adjustment, so the wires may be suspended parallel to the ceiling to which the supports are attached.
Briefly speaking my invention comprises providing two parallel rods, which are suspended from a ceiling by means of V shaped brackets. The brackets may be adjusted to change the vertical and horizontal position of the rods, thereby changing the position of the clothes lines that are suspended from said rods.
For a better understanding of my invention reference may be made to the accompanying drawing.
Figure 1' of which is a view, in perspective, of a clothes line support constructed in accordance with my invention.
Fig. 2 is a view, in perspective, of a strap which forms a part of one of the brackets illustrated in Fig. 1 of the drawing.
Fig. 3 is a view, in perspective, of one of the rigid members that forms part of a bracket illustrated by Fig. 1 of the drawing.
Fig. 4 is a view, in side elevation, of a wire and its means of attachment to the clothes line support by means of a bolt.
Fig, 5 is a view, in perspective, of a modified form of strap constituting a part of a bracket constructed in accordance with my invention.
Figs. 6 and 7 are views, in side and end elevation, respectively, of a plurality of brackets constructed in accordance with a modified form of my invention.
Fig, 8 is a cross sectional view of the bracket illustrated in Figs. 6 and 7 of the drawing taken along the line 8--8 of Fig. 7.
Fig. 9 is a view, partly in. end elevation and partly in section, of a bracket constructed in accordance with my invention mounted on a steel I beam.
Referring to Fig. l of the drawing, a clothes line support I is attached to a plurality of rafters 2, which form a part of a horizontal support 3, which may be either a floor or ceiling.
Each of the supports l comprises a pair of brackets 4 which support a rod or bar 5. Two of these rods or bars 5 are so mounted by means of a plurality of brackets 4 as to be parallel to the horizontal support and to each other.
On the bars 5 are mounted a plurality of wires 6 by means of bolts 1 and 8. Each of the bolts 8 (Fig. 4) is provided with a threaded end 9 on which is rotatably mounted a washer l and a nut ll.
Each of the brackets 4 comprises a pair of rigid members I2 of L shaped cross section, one of which is illustrated in Fig. 3 of the drawing, and a metallic strap l3, which is separately disclosed in Fig. 2 of the drawing. The rigid members l2 and the metallic strap I3 are provided with a plurality of corresponding bolt holes l4 and I5, respectively, through which bolts l6 may be inserted,
Each of rigid members [2 is provided with a curved end portion I! to permit a rolling contact with the surface on which it is mounted. In other words, as the angular relation of the rigid member I2 changes with respect to the rafter 2 a relatively flat portion of the rigid member 12 remains in contact with the rafter 2.
The clothes line support may be installed in any part of a building but is usually installed in the basement or attic. The method of installation is to fasten the rigid members l2 to the rafters 2 of the horizontal support 3. One of the straps I3 is fastened by the bolts It to the corresponding rigid members l2 to form the brackets 4.
The bar is then slid through the looped portion l'8 of each of the straps l3 that are in alignment. The bolts l6 nearest the bar 5 are tightened to hold the rod 5 securely in position.
A plurality of wires 6 are stretched between corresponding rods 5 by means of bolts 1 and 8. The wires 6 may be made as tight as desired by adjusting the nut I l on the corresponding bolts 8.
A modified form of strap 2|, which is illustrated in Fig. 5 of the drawing, has its end portions 22 pivotally fastened together by a bolt 23. This strap 2|, while more expensive than straps I 2, makes it easier to adjust the rod or bar 5 therein.
Referring to Figs. 6, 7, and 8, a different form of bracket 24 is illustrated supporting the pipe 5. This modified form of bracket comprises a rigid member 25 having a curved portion 26 at its one end and a second rigid member or metallic strap 21having a hooked end 28 adapted to hold the pipe 5.
The metallic strap 21 has a U shaped block 29 welded thereto in which is positioned bolt 30,
which may be tightened to clamp the rigid members 25 and 21 together. This arrangement of the block 29 permits the rigid members 25 and 2'! to be slid back and forth on each other to any desired position.
There are two brackets 24 at each end of the pipe 5. The brackets 24 are mounted in side by side relation on the pipe 5 and are independent of each other.
Referring to Fig. 9, a steel I beam 3| is illustrated as forming part of a horizontal support. A plate 32 is secured to the beam 3| by means of bolts 33. The rigid members K2 are then attached to the plate 32 by means of the bolts 34.
The rigid members 25 may also be tubular shaped, such as round or elliptical pipe, or U shaped, such as channels, and the adjustable members 21 may be also of corresponding cross section to fit said rigid members 25. r
While I have shown my invention in a preferred form, it is apparent that minor modifications may be made in the arrangement of parts Without departing from the spirit of my invention, I desire therefore to be limited only by the scope of the appended claimv What I claim as my invention is:--
A pipe bracket comprising a strap with a looped end adapted to partially surround a pipe and an elongated rigid member having a curved end portion adapted to have a tiltably adjustable engagement with a supporting surface and means for adjustably mounting said strap on said rigid member to vary the over all distance between the looped end of the strap and the curved end portion of said rigid member.
