IMPROVED GLO"l"HESDi-tlEFL Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. @@fl, dated November 3, 1863.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, CHARLES G. Mitten,l of Brattleborough, in the county of Windham and State of Vermont, 'have invented a new and Improved Clothesdnr; and l do hereby declare that the following' is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, makiup: a part. of this specification, in which- Figure 1 is a frontview of my invention; Figui a side sectional view ofthe sume,takcn 'n the line v:y: Fig. 1.
Simiar letters of reference indicate corresponding-,parts in the two figures.
This invention relates to an improved clothes-bar, suoli as is provided with nseries of adjustable arms, and is designed .to bc attached to the wall oi' nn apartment and hold clothes after beingironed, or to hold the wenrinn-apterel of the occupant of a sleeping- IOm.
,'ihis invention consists in a novel and simple means employed i'or preventing` the., arms from sagging under the weight of the clothes which may be placed upon them, and also consists in a simple means for preventing the .clothes .from slippingoft' from the ends oi" the,
urine, as hereinafter iully set forth.
To enable those skilled in the nrt to fully understand and construct my invention, I will proceedto describe it.
A represents a metallic plate, which is secured 'to the wall of an'apartmentin any proper way, either permanently or so that it maybe readily attached t0 the Wall and detached therefrom. This plate A is provided near its upper end with a horizontal projecting lip, a., and is also provided near its lower end with a similar lip, a', the latter being smaller than the former.
B is a bolt which passes vertically through these two lips a al', said bolt beingvreteined in the lips ny a head, b, on its upper end, as shown in both figures.
Gis a plate which is fitted loosely7 on the holt B, so that it may slide freely thereon, the
means of a small wrench.
bolt B below the plate G having a screwthrend cut on it on which a nut, c, works, said nut being between the plate C and the lip a.
D represents nl series of bars or arms through which, near 'one end, the boltB passes. These bars or arms 'are placed oneover the other, and they vary in length, the upper one being, the shortest, and gradually increasing in length and projectingfarther out from the plate A from the top one downward, theinlier ends being in line with eat-h other. The inner ends ot' the bars or arms are clamped between the upper lip, a, and the plate @by means of the nut c, which may be turned by By this arrangement the bars or arms 'may be firmly held in a horizontal position and etectually prevented from sagging under the weight of the clothes which may4 be placed upon them, the bars or arms at the same time being allowed to be freely adjusted or tnrne on lthe bolt toward or from the wall as may' be required. 'Each har or arm is pro'vided at its outer end and upper 'surface with a knob, d, to prevent the clothes from slipping oit' from the bars or arm s. These knobs may be of metal, wood, or other suitable material. ,The bars or arms are ot' wood. The nut c may be screwed up at any time to compensate for lshrinkage'or weurot' the bars or arms, so that the latter can always bev adjusted and retained in ahorizontnl position.
I vdo not claim', broadly, the employment of the swinging bars; but- Having thus described my invention', what CHARLES G. MILLER.
