4 Claims. (c1, 3125-315' This invention pertains to new and useful improvements in drying apparatus, and more particularly to a drier which employs chemicals for removing moisture from various types of articles.
The principal object of the present invention is to provide a chemical drier wherein a special receptor is provided for the moisture absorbing chemicals, to the end that the drier can be moved from point to point without likelihood of disturbing or spilling the chemicals.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent to the reader of the following description.
In the drawings:
Figure l represents a side elevational view of the drier.
Figure 2 is a vertical sectional view through the tent portion of the drier.
Figure 3 is a side elevational view of the chemical containing box.
Figure 4 is a top plan view of the chemical containing box.
Figure 5 is an end elevational view of the box.
Figure 6 is a longitudinal sectional View on line I--B of Figure 4.
Figure 7 is a transverse vertical sectional View on line l--l of Figure 4.
Figure 8 is a perspective view of the upright.
Figure 9 is a perspective view of one of the hanger rods.
Referring to the drawings wherein like numerals designate like parts, it can be seen that numeral 5 denotes an elongated substantially shallow box formed with vertical grooves 6 in the end portions thereof. A cover 1 is provided for the box 5, this cover having depending side walls 8, 8, each formed with a longitudinally extending groove for receiving a tongue 9 on the corresponding side Wall of the box 5. The cover 'I has a yplurality of openings l0 therein so that vapor from the chemicals (not shown) in the box 5 can escape to the area above the box.
The cover I has short upstanding side Walls Il, II which are grooved at their opposed sides to define a slideway for an imperforate slide closure I2. The walls II, II also have vertical openings or sockets I3 therein for receiving the lower ends of inverted U-shaped uprights Id, the upper bight portions of which are bent downwardly to define bridge portions I5 over which hanger rods I6 can be disposed.
Numeral I1 denotes a tent of a shape adapted to fit over the uprights I4 and dene a compartment in which various items to be dried can be placed and supported by the hanger bars I6.
It can be seen thatby havingthe bight portions depressed, short risers I8 are dened, which actually contact the top of the tent I1 and keep this portion of the tent Well elevated above the hanger rods I6.
The lower portion of the tent, which is open at its bottom, is tied snugly against the side wall of the box 5 by passing a string or cord I9 around the box and the lower portion of the tent and securely tying the same into a knot as at 20.
Obviously, before the tent has been put in position as shown in Figure l, the closure slide I2 has been removed so fumes from the chemicals in the box 5 can pass into the tent Il, absorbing the moisture content of said articles. The cover 'I and closure I2 have notches for registry with grooves 6. The groove 6 and said notches are provided to receive the adjacent portions of a string passed about the bottom and end's of the box and over the uprights I4, rods I6 and the tent Il', when the tent is folded and placed with said uprights and rods lengthwise upon the top of the box. In this way, the parts of the drier may be compactly arranged and secured together for storage or transportation.
While the foregoing speciiication sets forth the invention in specic terms, it is to be understood that numerous changes in the shape, size and materials and may be resorted to without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as claimed hereinafter.
Having described the invention, what claimed as new is:
l. A drier comprising a box adapted for reception of a moisture-absorbing chemical and having imperforate bottom, side and end walls, a perforated cover for the box, means to close the perforations of the cover when desired, said cover having pairs of vertical sockets, the sockets of each pair being aligned transversely of the box, inverted U-shaped uprights, each having its lower ends received in a pair of said sockets, a tent tting over said uprights and depending about the box, and means securing the lower portion of the tent in substantially air-tight relation to the box.
2. A drier comprising a box adapted for reception of a moisture-absorbing chemical and having imperforate bottom, side and end walls, a perforated cover for the box, means to close the perforations of the cover when desired, said cover having pairs of vertical sockets, the sockets of each pair being aligned transversely of the box, inverted U-shaped uprights, each having its lower ends received in a pair of said sockets, a tent fitting over said uprights and depending about the box, and means securing the lower portion of the tent in substantially air-tight relation to the box, said uprights having downwardly bent bight portions, and hanger rods extending across and resting on said bight portions.
3. A drier comprising a horizontally elongated box adapted for reception of a moisture-absorbing chemical and having imperforate bottom, side and end Walls, a perforated removable cover for the box, means to close the perforations of the cover when desired, said cover having pairs of Vertical sockets at and intermediate the ends rights and depending about the box, and means 20 securing the lower portion of the tent in substantially air-tight relation to the box.
-means securing the lower portion of the tent in substantially air-tight relation to the box, said cover having upstanding walls along the sides thereof provided with longitudinal grooves dening a slideway, said closing means embodying an imperforate slide closure disposed on the coverand removably engaged in said sldeway.
