CLOTHES-DRIER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 324,987, dated August 25, 1885.
Application filed January 31, 18S-l.
To @ZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I', Davin A. Dickson', a citizen of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county ot' Cook and State of Illinois, have invented a new and useful Clothes- Drier, of which the following is a Specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings.
This invention relates to clothes driers; and it has for its object to provide a device which may be raised or lowered as desired to bring the arms to the necessary height.
A further object of the invention is to lock the arms supporting the clothes in any position to which they may be raised, and a still further object ot' the invention is to prevent the admission ot' water into the interior of the drier, and thus there will be no danger of the lifting mechanism becoming corroded or rusty through contact with water.
lith these and other objects in view the said invention consists in certain details ot' construction and combination of parts, as hereinafter set forth, and particularly pointed out in the claim.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a perspective view of my improved clothesdrier in its raised position. Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional View of the same. Fig. 3 is a transverse section on the line .fr x, Fig. 2. Fig. t is a similar section on the line y y, Fig. 2.
Like letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the several ligures.
Referring to the drawings, A designates a suitable base, upon which is mounted astandard, B, the upper portion, C, being diminished in size, as shown. The standard has a vertical bore or opening, l), to receivea verticallymoving bar, E, to one faceof which is secured a rack, F, extending longitudinally of the said har, a gear-wheel, G, being mounted on a shalt, lil', within a slot, l, formed near the lower end ot' the standard and engaging' with the rack. said shal't extending outward through the standard and provided with an operatinghandle, J, at one end and a ratchet-wheel, K, at the other end. A pawl, L, is secured to one ot' the faces of standard B, and engages with the ratchet-wheel, aslottcd bearingplate, M, heilig secured on the end of a chain or cord, X, attached to the standard and tit- (No model.)
ting over a staple, C, a padlock having a key being used to secure the bearing-plate upon the staple and in position against the ratchet. In Fig. l I have shown the plate M fitted over the staple C and bearing against the upper face of the pawl L; but the lock is not shown, since the manner of its attachment to the staple over the plate is too well known to require description or illustration.
P designates slots or grooves formed in the sides of extension C of the standard, a crossA bar, Q, secured to the upper end ofthe bar E, sliding or moving in the grooves and connecting at their ends with a sliding head, B, to which are fitted spring-plates S, said plates fitting over the grooves and working at their lower ends in passages T of the standard B, outside of the upper portion, C. A sleeve or collar, V, is detachably secured over the upper end ot' the head, and carries the arms U, upon which the clothes are hung. Vertical rods YV are secured from the top to the bottom of extension C, and guide the head in its movements.
The operation of my invention will be readily understood from the foregoing description, taken in connection with the annexed drawings. By operating the handle J the shaft H will be revolved to communicate motion to the gear-wheel G, which will engage with the rack and cause the upward movement of the har E. As the latter moves upward the crossbar Q works in the grooves ll and carries the sliding head upward, to which the sleeve and the clothes supporting arms are attached. Thus the arms may be raised to any desired height, and locked in that position by means of the bearing-plate )I and any suitable lock and key, the plate resting against the pawl and holding the latter from slipping or yielding until it is removed from engagement therewith.
The bearing-plate and the lock and key may be employed to prevent the raising ot the clothes-arms, thus locking them in their Alowest position.
In the raised position of the drier thc plates S iit against the grooves l), and prevent water from entering the interior of the same where the lifting mechanism is concealed. 'lhepawl and ratchet act to resist any downward tend- Ico' lIO
ing-shaft for the gear-wheel, a cross-bar attached to the upper end of the rack-bar and sliding in grooves of the standard, the head carrying the clothes-arms and secured to the cross-bar, vertical guide-wires attached to the standard, and lplates S, iitted to the head, for the purpose set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I have hereto ai'lixed my signature in presence of two Witnesses.
DAVID A. DICKSON.
