- the laundry drying rack is preferably designed as a clothes dryer, for example with a mast on which the arms are arranged in an articulated and / or displaceable manner.
- the fixing device and / or the hanging device are designed as a strip or rail, preferably running parallel to the at least one arm.
- a fastening means is preferably provided at both ends of the strip or the rail, so that the fixing device and / or the hanging device can be mounted safely and reliably.
- a single fastening means is provided at one end of the strip or rail, so that the fixing device and / or the hanging device can hang vertically downwards in the assembled state.
- an articulated connection is preferably provided between the fastening means and the rail or the strip, so that the fixing device and / or the suspension device can be mounted and used in any angular positions of the at least one arm.
- the fixing device has a plurality of clamping elements, for example 5 or more, for fixing the items of laundry.
- the clamping elements could be arranged in any way to one another, but they are preferably arranged in a row.
- the clamping elements each have at least one, preferably two, spring tongues.
- the clamping elements are designed as preferably U-shaped pockets, each with spring tongues arranged in pairs.
- the spring tongues protrude from the opening side of the U-shaped pockets into the pocket. In this way, a piece of laundry can simply be pushed into the pocket and fixed without the need for further fixing means such as clothes pegs. This is the hanging of Garments - especially small items - are significantly simplified, since usually only one end of a piece of laundry has to be pushed or pulled into the pocket.
- the spring tongues are advantageously arranged in pairs, so that a garment to be hung comes to hang between the two spring tongues. Regardless of whether a clamping element of the fixing device is equipped with one or two spring tongues, the garment can be removed from the clamping element again simply by pulling it.
- the clamping elements in particular the edges and surfaces coming into contact with the garment, are preferably designed in such a way that no sharp edges or corners protrude; this ensures that the garment cannot be damaged either when hanging up or when being removed.
- the ends of the spring tongues are preferably designed as a cylindrical or spherical head.
- the hanging device has at least one opening and / or at least one recess and / or at least one hook and / or at least one indentation and / or at least one eyelet, into which at least one clothes hanger can be hung.
- the hanging device preferably has a multiplicity of openings and / or recesses and / or hooks and / or indentations and / or eyes. These can be arranged in any way.
- a latching device is provided for releasably fixing a clothes hanger, thereby preventing the clothes hanger from slipping or shifting or unhooking even in the event of strong wind.
- the hanging device can be designed as a bar or rail with spaced-apart recesses into which the hanging hooks of hangers can be hung.
- the depressions can, for example, be arc-shaped or V-shaped.
- the opening width of the opening or of the recess or of the indentation or of the eyelet is selected to be somewhat smaller than the cross section of the hanging hook of the clothes hanger, so that it is automatic a clamping effect occurs, which fixes the suspension hook particularly well.
- the hanging device interacts in a special way with the hanging hook of the clothes hanger.
- the hanging hook of the clothes hanger is provided on the inside with a latching recess in such a way that it can be positively and / or non-positively attached to the hanging device; this latching coupling is preferably designed in such a way that it can only be applied by force in one direction (preferably upwards) ) can be solved, in which forces do not arise during drying operation due to wind or other influences.
- the latching recess can, for example, be horseshoe-shaped and have a semicircular region facing away from the inner surface and a region facing the inner surface and narrowing towards the inner surface.
- the latching recess can be U-shaped and can be provided with at least one, preferably two, latching cams adjacent to the inner surface.
- the fixing device and the hanging device are jointly designed as a hanging device on which laundry items can be temporarily fixed and in which at least one clothes hanger can also be hung.
- the area of several adjacent clamping elements and eyelets for hanging clothes hangers are arranged alternately in a row.
- a number of clamping elements and, separately, for example arranged above them, a number of suspension openings are provided.
