Abstract

Apparatus intended to facilitate the folding of cloth or similar objects by a person alone. A moving part (5) which may pivot in a vertical plane about two shafts (4), is guided by ports (2) provided in the support piece (1). The part (5), owing to the ports (2), may be spaced from the piece (1) to facilitate the setting in place of the cloth. One side of the cloth is folded and is positioned between the piece (1) and the part (5); the part (5) is brought as close as possible to the piece (1), and the person may then pull from the other side of the cloth to stretch and finish the folding. The ports (2), and the oval shape of the shaft (4), allow to fold objects of variable thickness.

Description

la présente invention concerne un appareil destine à faciliter, pour une personne seule, le pliage avec tension de draps de lit ou objets similaires. the present invention relates to an apparatus intended to facilitate, for a single person, the folding with tension of bed sheets or similar objects.

Selon l'invention, appareil comporte deux pinces prin- cipales: l'une pivotante dans un axe horizontal, l'autre fixe et support de la première. According to the invention, the apparatus comprises two main clamps: one pivoting in a horizontal axis, the other fixed and supporting the first.

Pour l'utilisation, l'ensemble sera fixé à une paroi, horizontalement, à environ un mètre du sol. For use, the assembly will be fixed to a wall, horizontally, about one meter from the ground.

La pièee fixe, en forme de U, comporte trois faces: une face, avec deux boutonnières pour la fixation, qui sera plaquée à la paroi lors de la fixation de l'appareil, et deux faces d'équerre comportant chacune une lumière. The U-shaped fixed part has three faces: one side, with two buttonholes for fixing, which will be pressed against the wall when the device is fixed, and two square faces, each with a light.

La pible mobile est plane, de forme rectangulaire, et comporte un axe ovalisé, solidaire de la pie ce, à chaque extrémité. The movable target is flat, rectangular in shape, and has an ovalized axis, integral with the part, at each end.

Ces deux axes, lors de lsassemblage de lappareil, viendront se loger dans les lumières décrites ci-dessus. These two axes, during the assembly of the device, will be housed in the lights described above.

Pour plier un drap, l'utilisateur, après en avoir plié une extrémité, l'insère entre la partie fixe 1 et la partie mobile 5. To fold a sheet, the user, after having folded one end, inserts it between the fixed part 1 and the mobile part 5.

la partie mobile 5, grace aux Lumières 25 doit être à ce moment cartés au maximum de la pièce axe 1, pour faciliter la mise en place du drap,
Une fois le drap en place9 l'utilisateur rapproche au maximum la pie ce mobile 5 de le pie ce fixe 1. le simple poids du drap fait alors basculer le haut de la pièce mobile 5 vers larribre, le bas venant pincer le drap contre la pièce fixe 1.the movable part 5, thanks to the Lights 25 must at this time be placed in the maximum of the part axis 1, to facilitate the installation of the sheet,
Once the sheet is in place9 the user brings the moving part 5 as close as possible to the fixed 1 foot fixed part 1.

L'utilisateur se recule alors à distance voulue, et, après avoir plié l'artre extrémité du drap, peut le tendre fortement afin d'obtenir un nliage parfait. The user then steps back at the desired distance, and, after having folded the end of the sheet, can stretch it tightly in order to obtain a perfect binding.

Pour libérer le drap, il suffit de retirer la pièce mobile 5 en arrière. To release the sheet, simply remove the moving part 5 back.

Cet appareil neut également servir à secouer draps ou couvertures, ou encore à maintenir des vêlements pour un brossage( pantalons, jupes,etc.)
Cet appareil pourra être fabriqué indifferemment en bois, en métal, ou en plastique moulé. This device can also be used to shake sheets or blankets, or to maintain clothes for brushing (pants, skirts, etc.)
This device can be made indifferently from wood, metal, or molded plastic.

REVENDICATIONS 10 Une pièce mobile 5 pouvant pivoter dans un plan vertical, entre les deux ailes d'une pièce 1 en forme de U, fixée i une paroi verticale.CLAIMS 10 A movable part 5 which can pivot in a vertical plane, between the two wings of a U-shaped part 1, fixed to a vertical wall. 2. Appareil selon larevendication 1 caractérisé en ce que la pièce mobile 5 peut pivoter dans un plan vertical grâce w deux axes 4 ovalisés pouvant coulisser, dans un plan horizontal, dans deux lumières 2 pratiquées dans les ailes de la pièce fixe 1. 2. Apparatus according to claim 1 characterized in that the movable part 5 can pivot in a vertical plane by w two oval axes 4 which can slide, in a horizontal plane, in two slots 2 formed in the wings of the fixed part 1. 3. Appareil selon la revendication t, caractérisé en ce que les axes 4 sont implantés aux deux-tiers,vers le bas, de la hauteur de la pièce mobile 5 ce qui, en application du principe des bras de leviers, multiplie la force de pincement des draps. 3. Apparatus according to claim t, characterized in that the axes 4 are located two-thirds downward from the height of the moving part 5 which, in application of the principle of the lever arms, multiplies the force of pinching of the sheets. 40 Appareil selon la revendication 9 caractérisé en ce que les lumières 2 pratiquées dans les ailes de la piece fixe 1, sont d'une hauteur égale au plus petit diamètre des axes 4 ce qui interdit tout recul de la pièce mobile 5 pendant l'utilisation. 40 Apparatus according to claim 9 characterized in that the lights 2 formed in the wings of the fixed part 1, are of a height equal to the smallest diameter of the axes 4 which prevents any recoil of the moving part 5 during use . 5. Appareil selon la revendication P, caractérisé en ce que la longueur des deux lumières 2 est étudiée d'une part pour faciliter la mise en place du drap, d'autre part pour permettre de pincer des objets d'épaisseur très variable.  5. Apparatus according to claim P, characterized in that the length of the two slots 2 is studied on the one hand to facilitate the establishment of the sheet, on the other hand to allow pinching objects of very variable thickness.
