GEORGE A. CULBERTSON, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.
CLOTHES-LINE SUPPORT.
To all whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE A. CULBERT- soN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Clothes-Line Supports, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to a device for holding and vertically adjusting the ends of a clothes line and while especially adapted for use in connection with lines put upv in a. room may of course be employed for outside lines by securing the device to posts or fences instead of to side walls.
The invention consists of the novel features of construction hereinafter described, pointed out in the claims and shown in the accompanying drawings, in which,
Figure 1 is a front elevation, partly in l section. Fig. 2 is a side elevation. Fig. 3 is an enlarged transverse section.
In these drawings, l represents suitable eyes secured in any desired manner to a vertical surface and to these eyes is hinged a vertically arranged strip 2 which carries oppositely angled hook members 3 engaging the eyes. Upon this strip travels a triangular shaped bracket 4: which partly incloses the strip 2 and is provided upon the rear side of the strip with suitable rollers 5 which travel upon the rear edge of the strip.
The bracket is cut out between the rollers forming arms 6, in which the rollers are mounted, but it will be obvious that any form of rollers may be employed and they may be mounted in the manner most convenient. The bracket 4 carries an eye 7 to which is secured the end of the clothes line 8. A rod 9 is pivotally connected to the bracket l and by means of said rod the bracket may be moved up and down the strip 2.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application led January 18, 1909.
Patented Nov. 9, 1909.
Serial No. 472,978.
A plate l0 carried by the top of the strip 2 forms a guard and prevents the bracket from being pushed off the upper end of the strip. The lower end portion of the strip is perforated as shown at 1l and the rod 9 carries at its lower end a pin l2 which when the bracket is lifted into its uppermost position is slipped into the perforation l1 thus locking the parts in their adjusted position. Then the line is to be lowered it is only necessary to disengage the pin 12 from the perforation ll and the bracket can then slide down until it rests 'upon the lower hook 3.
By means of a device thus constructed the ends of a clothes line can be readily lifted or lowered as the occasion may require.
l. A device of the kind described comprising screw eyes, a vertically arranged strip, hooks pivotally connecting said strip to said eyes, a bracket slidable on the strip an eye carried by the bracket, a rod connected to said bracket, and means for supporting the lower end of the rod on the lower end portion of the strip.
2. A device of the kind described comprising a vertically arranged strip adapted to fold against the wall, a bracket slidably mount-ed upon said strip, rollers carried by the bracket and engaging one face of the strip, means carried by the bracket for engagement with the clothes line, a rod connected at one end to said bracket and a pin carried by the other end of the rod, the said strip being perforated adjacent its lower end to receive said pin.
