UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
HENRY XVATERMAN, OF BARTLETT, ILLINOIS.
CLOTHES-DRIER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 351,300, dated October 19, 1886.
Applicati: n filed March 11, 1886.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that l, HENRY \VATERMAN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Bartlett, Cook county, Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Clothes- Driers, ofwhich the followingisa specification.
The object of my invention is to make a clothes drier or holder for use principally in rooms or houses, which will be simple in construction, economical in cost, durable in use, and which will accommodate the largest number of pieces to be dried in the smallest space possible.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of my clothes-drier with the holders on which the clothes are suspended open as they appear in use. Fig. 2 is a detail view of the supporting bars against which the holders are secured when in use. Fig. 3 is a detail view of a portion of the drier, showing how the holders are attached; and Fig. 4 is a modifica tion of the supporting bar, showing the pin in the same to prevent the withdrawalof the end holders.
In the drawings, A is the main frame of the holder; B, the supportingbars; O, the clothesholders; D, the end holders; and E, the pin in the supportingbar to prevent the withdrawal of the end holders.
I11 constructing my improved clothes-drier I make a frame consisting of two upright end portions and a bottom portion to hold the same in an upright position. These end portions may be fastened together at the top by a connecting-rod, as shown in the drawings, or they may be held in their proper positions simply by supporting-bars, hereinafter described. At proper distances apart throughout the height of the frameI provide supporting-bars to which the end pieces of the frame are attached. These supporting-bars give strength and stability to the frame-work, and also afford means for attaching and supporting or holding the clothesholders in their proper position when in use. The clothes-holders are made of folding leaves, so to speak, with a series of rods, on which the clothes are to be hung for drying, attached to end pieces, as shown in the drawings. These holders are then pivoted to the end pieces at each side slightly below the supporting-bars. The inner ends of the holders project suffi- Serial No. 194.911. (No modeLl ciently under the supportingbars to rest against them when the holders are open for use and prevent them from being open beyond the desired point, and enable them to sustain the weight of the clothes. When notin use, these leaves may be folded up within the frame, so as to be out of the road and protected from the liability of breakage, as shown in the drawings. Only as many of these holders need be turned down as may be required for use at any particular time. The holders on one side only may be turned down for use, leaving the others folded up out of the road, so that the drier may stand with its back, so to speak, against the wall, and thus be made to occupy but little space. The rods in the various holders are preferably spaced, so that the rods in the second holder from the bottom will be over the spaces between the rods of the first holder from the bottom, and the rods in the third holder from the bottom over the spaces be tween the rods of the second holder from the bottom, and the rods of each successive holder to the top arranged over the spaces between the rods in the holder immediately below it. In this way the clot-hes will be permitted to hang from the rods of each holder without interfering with those on the holder immediately below.
In order to accommodate a larger amount of clothes than the side holders may be adapted to receive, I provide end holders, which consist of rods that rest immediately under the supporting-bars, and which may be drawn out as required for use and pushed in when not needed. To prevent these end holders from being entirely withdrawn, I have provided them with a pin which is drawn against the end portions of the frame when the end holders are drawn out for use. In Fig. 4 I have shown a modification of this, which consists in providing these end holders with a notch near their inner ends, into which a pin placed in a'proper receptacle in the transverse bars may drop when the end holders are drawn out to the proper place, so that the notch is immediately under the pin. To enable the end holders to be pushed in again, they are sloped slightly back from these notches, so that as they are pushed in the holding-pin will be slid up into its receptacle in the SllppOIblllg-bitlS.
As these various features are plainly shown in the drawings, I do not consider it necessary to enlarge upon them. i
As shown and described, the clothes-holders are pivotally attached at their ends to the upright members of the main frame of the drier, and fold downward and outward when in use, and up into the frame when not in use. I prefer that they should be folded down to substantially a horizontal position when in use, and up into the frame, so as to be' entirely out of the way when not in use. I do not desire, however, to be limited precisely to these positions, as some of the benefits of my invention will be enjoyed if the holders should not be folded down as much as to a horizontal position, or not entirely into the frame when not in use.
What I claim as new, and desire tosecure 1 by Letters Patent, is-
A clothes-drier consisting of a main frame,
