従来、物干し具には、２本の脚杆がＸ形状に交差軸着され開閉自在とされた脚 体が左右一対設けられ、脚杆上端部間に横桟が架設された折り畳み式の物干し具 が知られている。また、かかる物干し具において、前記２本の脚杆を双方が重な った全閉状態から全開状態に回動自在に接続する連結部材としては、例えば図１ ０に示したものが特開平１０−５７６９４号公報に開示されている。 2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a clothes dryer has a pair of left and right legs which are openable and closable with two leg bars crossed in an X shape, and a horizontal rail is provided between upper ends of the leg bars. It has been known. In such a clothesline, as a connecting member for rotatably connecting the two leg rods from a fully closed state in which both are overlapped to a fully open state, for example, the connecting member shown in FIG. -57694.
【０００３】 この連結部材は、２本の脚杆１１１，１１２にそれぞれ取り付けられた内側部 材１０１と外側部材１０２とからなる一対の部材によって構成されている。内側 部材１０１と外側部材１０２は、脚杆１１１，１１２の接続状態で対向する円盤 部１０３をそれぞれ有しており、各々の円盤部１０３の表面側には、中心を隔て て点対称に配置された２つの扇形からなる***部１０４が形成されている。また 、内側部材の***部１０４と外側部材の***部１０４は、各々脚杆１１１，１１ ２に取り付けたとき周方向に９０°の角度差が存在するよう形成されている。The connecting member is constituted by a pair of members including an inner member 101 and an outer member 102 attached to two leg rods 111 and 112, respectively. The inner member 101 and the outer member 102 have disk portions 103 facing each other in a state where the leg rods 111 and 112 are connected, and are arranged point-symmetrically on the surface side of each disk portion 103 with the center therebetween. A raised portion 104 having two fan shapes is formed. Further, the raised portion 104 of the inner member and the raised portion 104 of the outer member are formed so that there is an angular difference of 90 ° in the circumferential direction when attached to the leg rods 111 and 112, respectively.
【０００４】 そして、前記連結部材は、物干し具を組み立てた状態で２本の脚杆１１１，１ １２を各々の円盤部１０３の中心に回動自在に軸支する一方、２本の脚杆１１１ ，１１２の回動時に双方の***部１０４同士が周方向に当接することにより、２ 本の脚杆１１１，１１２を一定量だけ可逆的に開閉自在とすることができるよう になっている。The connecting member rotatably supports the two leg rods 111 and 112 around the center of each of the disk portions 103 in a state where the clothesline is assembled, while the two leg rods 111 and 112 are rotatably supported.

Therefore, when dust or dirt enters both connecting portions during use, the dust and dirt can be easily removed, which is also convenient. Moreover, the amount of resin required for molding the inner connecting member 21 is small, and the cost of the inner connecting member 21 can be reduced, so that a clothesline can be provided at low cost.
【００３０】 なお、図示しないが、前述した連結具６の構成を、各凸条２８を嵌合片１７ａ ，１７ａ，１７ａを設け、かつ前述した各凹溝１８を内側連結部材２１の第２の 嵌合部２６に設けた構成や、第１の嵌合部１６を円筒形状としてその内周面に各 凸条２８又は各凹溝１８を設ける構成としてもよい。また、嵌合片１７ａ，１７ ａ，１７ａの間における他の嵌合片１７ｂ，１７ｂ，１７ｂは廃止してもよい。Although not shown, the configuration of the above-mentioned connecting tool 6 is the same as that of the second connecting part 21 of the inner connecting member 21 except that each of the ridges 28 is provided with the fitting pieces 17a, 17a, 17a. The configuration provided in the fitting portion 26 or the configuration in which the first fitting portion 16 is formed in a cylindrical shape and each of the ridges 28 or each of the grooves 18 are provided on the inner peripheral surface thereof may be employed. Further, the other fitting pieces 17b, 17b, 17b between the fitting pieces 17a, 17a, 17a may be omitted.
【００３１】 さらに、第１及び第２の嵌合部１６，２６を廃止し、外側連結部材１１の係合 部１３と、内側連結部材２１の第１の取付部２２とに、前述した各凹溝１８と各 凸条２８とをそれぞれ相対向して設ける構成としてもよい。またその場合は各凹 溝１８を半円形状の凹部に、かつ各凸条２８を半円形状の凸部にしてもよい。か かる構成においても、物干し具の非使用時には全閉状態の脚体１を紐等によって 固定する必要がなく、使い勝手がよくなるという効果は得られる。Further, the first and second fitting portions 16 and 26 are eliminated, and the above-described recesses are provided on the engaging portion 13 of the outer connecting member 11 and the first mounting portion 22 of the inner connecting member 21. The configuration may be such that the groove 18 and the respective ridges 28 are provided to face each other. In this case, each groove 18 may be a semicircular concave portion, and each ridge 28 may be a semicircular convex portion. Even in such a configuration, when the clothesline is not used, the legs 1 in the fully closed state do not need to be fixed with a string or the like, and the effect of improving usability is obtained.
【００３２】 また、本実施の形態においては、前記連結具６が脚杆１を構成する外側脚杆２ 側と内側脚杆３側とを回動自在に連結する物干し具を示したが、脚杆１に拘わら ず回動自在に連結する必要がある一対の杆体を備えた他の物干し具においては、 そうした一対の杆体を前述したような連結具６により連結することもできる。そ の場合においても、一対の杆体が不用意に開くことが防止できるため物干し具の 使い勝手が向上する。さらに、回動自在に連結する必要がある一対の杆体を備え ていれば物干し具以外の物品においても、前述したような連結具６を使用するこ とにより同様の効果が得られる。Further, in the present embodiment, although the connecting device 6 is a clothesline that rotatably connects the outer leg 2 side and the inner leg 3 that constitute the leg 1, the laundry is shown. In other clothes-drying tools provided with a pair of rods that need to be rotatably connected irrespective of the rod 1, such a pair of rods can also be connected by the connecting tool 6 as described above. Even in such a case, it is possible to prevent the pair of rods from being opened carelessly, thereby improving the usability of the clothesline. Furthermore, if a pair of rods that need to be rotatably connected is provided, the same effect can be obtained by using the above-described connecting tool 6 in articles other than the clothes-drying tool.
