Description
UNITED STATES' PATENT OEEICE.
T. A. SUMMERS, OF ROCHESTER, NEW YORK.
IMPROVED CLOTHES-DRIER.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 114.469, dated September 27, 1864; antedated September 16, 1864.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, T. A. SUMMERS, of Rochester, in the county of Monroe and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Clothes-Driel, and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference heilig had to the accompanying` drawings, making apart ot' this specification, in which- Figure l is an elevation of the invention, the upper socket D being shown in vertical section, and the middle one turned at right angles from the wall and its bar removed. Iig. 2 is a vertical central section ot' the lower end of the bracket A and of the supportingear C, and showing a portion of the lower socket D and the axial rod by dotted lines E.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in both figures.
This invention will be understood by reference to the drawings and specification.
To enable others to make and use my invention, I will proceed to describe it.
A in the drawings represents the bracket.
to which the supporting-ears O are attached by screws; B, the hanger-bars; D, the sockets which receive the end ofthe bars; E, the axial rod or bolt to which the sockets are pivoted. The ears C are cast, as seen in Fig. 2, with a chamber to receive the ends of the rod E, and they are fixed to the bracket A by screws, as seen in Fig. 1, the holes c through the ears and bracket, being provided to receive the screws for attaching thewhole to the wall; or it may be hung upon hooks fixed in the wall by providing catches to the back of the bracket. This socket is constructed similar to that shown in my former application, allowed October 22, 1863, but without the iianges through which that was screwed to the wall, in this, the upper plate being eX- tended back so as toA form the ear b, through which the rod E passes, The lower'plate is also extended, but may be slotted so as to form a lip, c, on each side ofthe rod. (Seen in Fig. 2.)
.The rod E should be cut a proper length to t snugly between the seat of the two ears, leaving sufficient space between the ears to allow the sockets D to act freely. The bars are prevented from displacement by the lip c catching in a corresponding notch in the bars; but they may be removed when not in use by simply raising the outer end far enough to clear the lip c and withdrawing them. This is very important'when the bars, on being swung back, would obstruct a door or window and which is unavoidable in certain localities.
The rods E and brackets A may be made long enough to receive any number of sockets.
The bars B may be made of any desired length or material.
Instead of the bracket A and supportingears C, the axial rod E may be made an inch or two longer than when used witn the bracket and ears, and have an encircling collar fixed about the same distance from the lower end for the sockets to rest upon, and the top of the rod furnished with a plate or an ornamental screw-nut, and' the whole, being provided with a suitable standard, is thus con verted into a portable clothes-drier, having adjustable and detachable bars, and when such hanger is not in use the same standard may be converted into a stand by removing the axial bolt and substituting an ordinary stand-top having a central dowel or pivot to lit in the top ofthe standard.
These drier frames or supporters may be modified so as to be applied to a variety of new and useful purposes.
That I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The arrangement ot the pivoted receivingsocket D, constructed as and for the purposes specified, with the bar B, axial bolt or rod E, and the bracket A.
T. A. SUMMERS.
