FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a clothes-hanging hanger having the clothes-drying device of the embodiment as viewed from above, FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the clothes-hanging clothes as viewed from below, and FIG.

The clothes-hanging hanger 1 is mainly made of a synthetic resin material, and has a size of about 60 cm in width and 40 cm in length. For example, 22 pinch portions are attached to the frame material at substantially equal intervals.

Note that the clothes hanger 1 may be made of a metal such as aluminum other than the synthetic resin material, and an appropriate material may be used. Moreover, the size and the number of pinch portions can be set to appropriate dimensions and numbers.

The clothes-hanging hanger 1 has a main frame portion 4 composed of a pair of horizontal frame portions 2 along the longitudinal direction and a pair of vertical frame portions 3 along the lateral direction. The hanging frame portion 5 is provided. Although a pair of hanging frame portions 5 is shown, a plurality of hanging frame portions 5 may be provided, or the vertical frame portions 3 may be arranged so as to bridge each other.

An H-shaped bridging portion 6 is provided substantially in the center between the bridging frame portions 5, and is bridged between the bridging frame portions 5. Further, a bridging portion 6 is provided at the center of the bridging portion 6 for hanging. A hook portion 7 is provided.

Further, the connecting point between the bridging frame part 5 and the bridging part 6 is a part where the width in the height direction of the hanging frame part 5 is narrowed by a base body part which will be described later and is provided in the hanging frame part 5. The bridging portion 6 also serves as reinforcement of the suspension frame portion 5. Similarly, a reinforcing bridging portion for bridging the portions of the vertical frame portion 3 and the bridging frame portion 5 where the width of each frame in the height direction becomes narrower may be separately provided.

A pair of semi-circular disc portions 6a is erected at an interval above the center of the bridging portion 6, and a rotatable cylindrical portion 7a is provided between the semi-circular disc portions 6a. Is axially supported by a shaft portion (not shown) provided in the. As shown in FIG. 3, the hook-shaped portion 7b is rotatably fixed by inserting the lower end into the hole portion 7c of the columnar portion 7a, and further, the hook-shaped portion 7b is freely movable along the arc of the semi-circular disk portion 6a. It is possible to do.

Each of the horizontal frame portion 2, the vertical frame portion 3, and the spanning frame portion 5 has an inverted U-shaped cross section and has a U-shaped groove, and the bottom surface side is open. Further, the horizontal frame portion 2, the vertical frame portion 3, and the spanning frame portion 5 are formed with rectangular or trapezoidal base portions 8 protruding downward at predetermined intervals, and the lower end sides of these base portions 8 are formed. Axial holes 8b are provided at the two corners 8a of each. Then, one pinch portion 9 is provided between two adjacent base portions 8.

As shown in FIG. 3, when the clothes-hanging hanger 1 is viewed from the side, the base parts 8 of the vertical frame part 3 and the base parts 8 of the hanging frame part 5 are arranged alternately. There is. By arranging in this way, the laundry C sandwiched between the pinch portions 9 of the facing vertical frame portion 3 and the laundry laundry C sandwiched between the pinch portions 9 of the facing frame portion 5 which are opposed to each other do not come into contact with each other. ..

Further, as shown in FIG. 3, the hanging frame portion 5 is arranged at a position slightly higher than the vertical frame portion 3, and the vertical frame portion 3 and the hanging frame portion 5 are arranged in a stepped shape. In this way, by arranging the hanging frame portion 5 provided inside with respect to the vertical frame portion 3 in a stepped manner, the central portion of the laundry C sandwiched by the pinch portions 9 of the vertical frame portion 3 facing each other is It becomes difficult to contact the base portion 8 of the suspension frame portion 5. Therefore, by preventing the central portion of the laundry C from contacting the hanging frame portion 5, the laundry C is easily dried.

FIG. 4 is an enlarged explanatory view in which a part of the side view of FIG. 3 is enlarged. As shown in FIG. 4, inside the middle of the base portion 8, a wall portion 8c acting as a locking portion is vertically arranged. It is installed internally. The height of the wall portion 8c is slightly shorter than the vertical length of the base portion 8. Note that in FIG. 4, the front side surface of the horizontal frame portion 2 is shown as a dotted line in order to facilitate understanding of the relationship between the wall portion 8c and the pinch portion 9.

The pinch portion 9 is composed of a pair of left and right pinch piece portions 9a, 9b, and a torsion spring 9c made of wire or the like is attached to the pinch piece portions 9a, 9b.

The color of the pinch pieces 9a and 9b may be the same color between the pinch pieces 9a and 9b between the opposite frame portions, and the pinch portions 9 of different colors from the pinch portions 9 arranged on both sides may be arranged. It is suitable.

By doing so, when the laundry to be described later is dried, the pinch portions 9 between the frame portions to be used will not be mistaken, and the combination of the pinch piece portions 9a and 9b that will be pinched with fingers will not be mistaken.

The pinch piece portions 9a and 9b are formed on both sides over substantially the entire circumference for reinforcement and pressure contact described later, and an edge portion 9d having a T-shaped cross section, and a pair of pinch pieces for sandwiching the laundry. An operation for rotating the pinch pieces 9a, 9b centering on the shaft portion 9f, and a sandwiching portion 9e where the portions 9a, 9b face each other, a shaft portion 9f that is axially supported by the shaft hole 8b of the base portion 8 and projects in a cylindrical shape. It has a piece 9g and a rotation restricting portion 9h that restricts the rotation of the pinch pieces 9a and 9b by coming into contact with the lower end of the wall 8c.

The shaft portions 9f are provided as a pair at the same position on both the front surface and the back surface of the pinch portion 9, and the rotation restricting portion 9h has a thickness half of the thickness of the edge portion 9d and is shifted to one side. It is in a state.

The operation piece portion 9g extends in a right angle direction, which is deviated by about 90 degrees from the extending direction of the holding portion 9e, with the shaft portion 9f as the center, and the rotation restricting portion 9h holds the shaft portion 9f as the center. The portion 9e extends in a direction opposite to the extending direction of the portion 9e by about 180 degrees.

The sandwiching portion 9e has a wide shape and side surfaces are arcuate, and when the pinch pieces 9a and 9b are rotated around the shaft portion 9f against the biasing force of the torsion spring 9c, the sandwiching portions 9e are separated from each other. The adjacent positions move as they rotate. Then, as the rotation of the pinch pieces 9a, 9b goes upward, the gap between the tips of the holding portions 9e widens.

Further, as shown in FIG. 4, when the operation piece 9g is not normally operated, the upper side portions 9i of the pinching portions 9e of the pinch pieces 9a and 9b form a V-shaped valley portion. A large number of anti-slip grooves 9j are provided on the tip surface of the sandwiching portion 9e so as to be continuous with the upper side portions 9i and to prevent the laundry from slipping. Similarly, a large number of anti-slip grooves 9j for preventing finger slip are also formed on the surface of the operation piece portion 9g.

The pair of pinch pieces 9a and 9b mounted between the adjacent bases 8 are formed in the same shape so that the front and the back are opposite to each other, so that the left and right sides have the same shape to reduce the number of parts. That is, the pinch piece portion 9a on one side is arranged face-up, and the pinch piece portion 9b on the other side is arranged face down.

FIG. 5 is a plan view of the upper side portion 9i of the pinch pieces 9a and 9b as seen from above, and the tip of the holding portion 9e is provided with a step portion 9l in the horizontal direction. Since the pinch piece portion 9a is arranged face-up and the pinch piece portion 9b is arranged face down, the step portions 9l of the anti-slip groove 9j are arranged so as to mesh with each other.

When attaching the pinch pieces 9a and 9b to the base portion 8, as shown in FIG. 4, the pinch pieces 9a and 9b rotatably supported by inserting the winding center of the torsion spring 9c into the shaft portion 9f are attached to the base portion. 8 is moved from below to above and pushed into the corner 8a. By pushing the pinch pieces 9a and 9b into the corner portion 8a, the shaft portion 9f fits into the shaft hole 8b and can be rotatably attached to the base body portion 8.

In the torsion spring 9c before the pinch pieces 9a and 9b are attached to the base portion 8, one end 9k protrudes from a notch 9m formed by cutting out a part of the edge 9d near the rotation restricting portion 9h. There is. The other end 9n is hooked on a spring receiving portion 9o provided on the edge 9d and is in contact with the inner wall of the edge 9d.

After the pinch pieces 9a and 9b are attached to the base portion 8, the end portion 9k of the torsion spring 9c abuts the wall portion 8c through the cutout portion 9m, and the upper side of the rotation restricting portion 9h is the tip of the wall portion 8c. Will come into contact with.

The conventional clothes-hanging hanger requires a number of steps such as a manufacturing process of the pinch part and an attaching process of a string-like object to be hung in order to attach the pinch part, whereas the clothes-hanging hanger 1 of this embodiment is twisted. Since the attachment is completed simply by pushing the pinch pieces 9a and 9b to which the springs 9c are attached to the corners 8a, the work steps can be significantly reduced and the manufacturing cost can be reduced.

The pinching portions 9e of the pinch pieces 9a and 9b attached with the torsion spring 9c inserted in the shaft portion 9f are in a state where the biasing force is directed downward by the torsion spring 9c. However, since the rotation restricting portion 9h contacts the tip of the wall portion 8c, the rotation of the pinch pieces 9a and 9b is stopped at this position.

In the back-to-back pinch piece portions 9a and 9b of the adjacent pinch portions 9, both rotation restricting portions 9h are in contact with one wall portion 8c while being offset from each other. This is made possible by reducing the thickness of the rotation restricting portions 9h of the pinch pieces 9a and 9b having the same shape and turning the pinch pieces 9a and 9b upside down for use.

When the clothes-hanging hanger 1 is used, first, the rotatable hook 7b is locked to the clothes-drying rod or the like. Before pinching the laundry, the pinch pieces 9a and 9b are brought into contact with the tip of the wall portion 8c by the rotation restricting portion 9h while the pinching portions 9e are close to each other as described above, and are stopped at a predetermined position. ing.

Then, the cloth at the portion to be sandwiched of the wet laundry C is pulled with both hands, and is inserted from below as shown by the arrow in FIG. 4 between the sandwiching portions 9e of the pair of pinch pieces 9a and 9b. ..

Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 6, when the laundry C is inserted between the holding portions 9e, the pinch pieces 9a and 9b rotate upward about the shaft 9f against the downward biasing force. Start moving. Since the sandwiching portion 9e is gently curved in an arc shape, even if the pinch pieces 9a and 9b rotate, any position of the sandwiching portion 9e is always in the proximity state, and the sandwiching to the laundry C is performed. The power is constant.

When the laundry C is lifted upward, the laundry C moves upward while being held by the holding force of the torsion spring 9c. Then, the laundry C is bited vertically by the non-slip grooves 9j of the holding part 9e, and at the same time, the laundry C is bited by the step portion 9l provided horizontally above the holding part 9e as shown in FIG. .. By doing so, it becomes possible to firmly hold the laundry C without slipping when the laundry C is sandwiched.

Furthermore, when a downward pulling force due to the weight of the wet laundry C or the like acts on the sandwiching portions 9e, an operation for narrowing the space between the sandwiching portions 9e is performed. By this operation, the non-slip groove of the sandwiching portion 9e in the laundry C further bites into the laundry C as shown in the plan view of the laundry C sandwiched in FIG. Become strong.

After the laundry C is dried, as shown in FIG. 8, the operation pieces 9g are sandwiched in the direction of the arrow with the fingers against the biasing force of the torsion spring 9c, so that the sandwiching portions 9e are separated from each other. The object C can be dropped and taken in from the holding section 9e.

Further, when the laundry C in FIG. 6 is sandwiched, the upper end of the laundry C is located on either side by the sandwiching portion 9e having a wide shape and the upper side portions 9i forming V-shaped troughs. Even if it is tilted to, it does not get caught in the holding portion 9e. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 8, when the sandwiching portions 9e are separated from each other, the laundry C always falls without being caught by the sandwiching portions 9e.

FIG. 9 and FIG. 10 are perspective views of a clothes hanger 1 ′ obtained by adding a wall hook 7 d to the clothes hanger 1 shown in FIG. 1. The structure other than the wall hook 7d is the same as that of the clothes-hanging hanger 1 described above.

The wall hook portion 7d has two parallel hook rod portions 7e, which are rotatably attached to the bridging portion 6 so that the hook rod portions 7e are parallel to the horizontal frame portion 2. Has been. The tip of the hook rod portion 7e is bent in a dogleg shape, and a wall hooking portion 7f whose tip is bent at 90 degrees is provided.

When the wall hook 7d is used, as shown in FIG. 9, the wall hook 7d in which the bridging portion 6 and the hook rod 7e are in parallel contact with each other is folded as shown in FIG. The hook rod portion 7e is brought into a state in which the hook can be hooked on the upper end of the outer wall.

When the hook rod portion 7e is raised, the root of the hook rod portion 7e abuts on the hanging frame portion 5 and the rotation is stopped. Since the bent portion of the wall hook portion 7f of the wall hook portion 7d in the inclined state is parallel to the upper end surface and the side surface of the external wall, it is possible to hook the clothes hanger 1'on the upper end of the wall. Become.

Further, since the vertical frame portion 3 abuts on the side surface of the wall, the clothes hanger 1'is stably locked to the wall. When the wall hook 7d is used, the hook 7 is preferably folded as shown in FIG.

As described above, in a place where there is no laundry rod or the like and the hook portion 7 cannot be used, it is possible to hang the laundry C on the clothes hanger 1'by using the wall or the like.

Further, in the embodiment, the clothes hangers 1 and 1 ′ provided with a large number of pinch parts 9 are used for description, but if the structure includes the pinch parts 9 of FIG. 4, various clothes hangers such as shoulder hangers are provided. Can be attached to.

As described above, according to the clothes hanger 1, it is possible to dry a large number of laundry items C at the same time. When the laundry items C are sandwiched, the laundry items C are lifted from the lower side to the upper side, and the pinch piece is used. It is possible to easily hold the laundry C by simply passing the facing holding portions 9e of the portions 9a and 9b.

Further, even if the clothes are dried for a long time and dried, the laundry C does not fall off from the sandwiching portion 9e, and when the dried laundry C is removed from the pinch pieces 9a and 9b, the laundry C is easily caught without being caught. Can be taken into.
