Description
Jan. 10, 1961 w. SPELLMAN DRIP DRYER Filed June 16, 1959 United States Patent O DRIP DRYER William Spellman, 215 Mount Hope Place, Bronx, N.Y.
Filed June 16, 1959, Ser. No. 820,782
2 Claims. (Cl. 211-100) This invention relates to a new dryer for use particularly with the new washable materials that must be drip It is an object of this invention to provide a new and improved rack which is easily set-up, as for example, over a bathtub, or basin, and will afford irm support for the articles to be held; but which can be easily removed and stored when desired.
The invention is shown in the accompanying drawing. Fig. 1 is a perspective view which shows the rack as attached to a support, but with the ends of the bars broken away. Fig. 2 is .a side elevation. Fig. 3 is a top plan view of the device shown in Fig. 1.
In the drawings the numeral is Ia base plate, generally rectangular in `shape but having its lower corners cut off, as `shown at 11. This plate is provided with two upper suction cup 12 and a lower suction cup 13, each of which has a projection numbered 14 for the upper cups and 15 for the lower. These suction cups face backwardly and the projections face forwardly through openings in the plate 10. Each of these projections 14 and 15 as here shown extends through a corresponding opening 14a and 15a in the plate, and each of these projections has an opening 14b and 15b through it which serves as a bearing to the wires 18 and 23.
The articles to be carried are supported by bars 16, each of which has at its inner end an eye 17; a wire 18 passes through openings 19 in the projection 14 and the eyes 17 are threaded upon this wire between the projection, so that each of the bars 16 may be vertically swung around the wire 18 as a pivot.
A rod 20 extends beneath the bars 16 and the ends of the wire18 are bent forwardly, as shown at 21, towards each other to fit into corresponding openings 22 of the rod 20.
A wire 23 has its center portion passing through an opening 24 in the projection 15, and has its ends spread and tting into openings 25 of the rod 20.
By this construction it will be seen that the rod 20 is held rigidly by the wires 18 and 23 and it underlies the bars 16 to limi-t their downward movement.
When the suction cups are attached to the Wall, the bars 16 may conveniently be lifted to facilitate insertion of a garment thereon but are supported in a substantially horizontal position, as shown in Fig. 2, so that if the device is attached above a bathtub, for example, and if wet garments are hung upon it, any water dripping from them will fall into the tub.
As soon, however, as the device is no longer required it may be removed from the wall. If desired, the bent ends 21 may be slipped out of the ends of the rods 20, permitting the rods 20 and the bars 16 to fold down hat, substantially into the plane of the base plate 10, whereupon the device may be easily stored in a drawer or shelf.
What I claim:
l. A plate adapted to be supported in a vertical position, having two horizontally aligned bearings thereon, a wire-mounted in said bearings, a plurality of garmentsupporting bars, each having one end pivoted on said wire Ibetween said bearings, said wire having a portion on each end extending beyond said bearings and bent forwardly, a support rod extending between and detachably connected to the ends of said forwardly bent portion, a brace rod pivoted to said plate at a point below the aforementioned bearings, said brace rod having its ends attached to said support rod to support said rod in position to hold said garment supporting bars in horizontal position.
2. A device according to claim 1 in which the rst mentioned bearings and the bearings for said bracing wire each comprise a rubber suction cup on the back of said plate yadapted to be attached to a wall, and having a forwardly extending lug passing through an opening in said plate to form a lug on the front thereof, each said lug having a transverse opening, said openings serving as the bearings for said wire and for said brace rod.
