1 claim.
This invention relates to a sweater stretcher and dryer.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a sweater stretcher and dryer formed of light weight plastic and adjustable to different widths and having arm portions likewise adjustable to diierent size arms of the sweater and having a hook on the upper part serving to support the device and the sweater for drying.
Other objects of the present invention are to provide a sweater stretcher and dryer which is of simple construction, inexpensive to manufacture, has a minimum number of parts, adjustable to diiferent widths, having adjustable arms, compact and durable, light in weight, convenient to use and eicient in operation.
For other objects and for a better understanding of the invention, reference may be had to the following detailed description taken in connection with the accompanying drawing, in which Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the sweater stretcher and dryer embodying the features of the present invention.
Fig. 2 is a transverse sectional view taken on line 2-2 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a sectional view taken on line 3--3 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 4 is a fragmentary sectional view taken on line 4-4 of Fig. l.
Fig. 5 is a fragmentary elevational view of one of the arm supports at its point of attachment to the separable U-shaped parts.
Fig. 6 is a sectional view taken through the upper part of one of the arm supports.
Fig. 7 is a sectional .view taken generally on line 1--1 of Fig. 4.
Referring now to the gures, Ill and Ii vrepresent separable U-shaped parts, the upper and lower ends of the parts overlap one another and are adjustable over each other. Holes are provided in the ends, as indicated at I2, for receiving securing pins for limiting and retaining the parts against displacement. The pins are formed integral with the turned in ends of the part II, as indicated at I3, Fig. 2. Fitted over the upper ends is a hanger element I4 having a hook portion I5. This hanger element is recessed, as indicated at I6, and has a hole Il for receiving one of the pin projections I3.
On each of the parts IU and II and extending along the sides thereof are a series of openings or holes I8. The material is bossed about these holes, as indicated at I9, Fig. 3. Arm supports are releasably attached to the openings and are of U-shape. These arm supports are indicated at 2l and they have pin projections 22 thereon adapted to fit in the verticallyrspaced holes I8 of the parts I0 and II.
of and the ange, as indicated at 24, Fig. 5, is thickened to provide an engaging face 25 for holding the arm support rigid on the parts and against easy vertical displacement. This engaging face 25 locks the arm supports in place against vertical displacement. To remove the arm supports they are moved outwardly to disengage the projections 22 from the openings I8.
The bottom ends of the parts Ill and II are locked by a C-shaped member 26 which extends over the parts to retain the integral securing pins I3 in the holes I2.
The arm supports can be made wider at their connecting points with the adjustable parts to receive diierent size sleeves.
It will be accordingly apparent that there has been provided a sweater stretcher and dryer which has separable parts I and II for different body widths of the sweater and adjustable arm portions 2| for diiferent size sleeves and a hanger hook l5 for the supporting of the device with the sweater for the purpose of drying the sweater.
While various changes may be made in the detail construction, it shall be understood that such changes shall be within the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined by the appended claim.
Having thus set forth and disclosed the nature of our invention, what is claimed is:
A sweater stretcher and dryer comprising separable U-shaped parts having oppositely disposed legs overlapping with one another and adjustably connected to one another to render the parts adjustable to diiierent width sweaters, a hanger portion connected to the overlapped legs of the parts, and U-snaped spring-like arm supports on the parts adapted to extend into the arms of the sweater, said inwardly bent legs of the parts having projections and openings for retaining the parts in their adjusted position with respect to one another, said hanging portion having vertically spaced :formations which may slide over the connected parts to hold them against vertical displacement with one another, and a T-shaped member for holding the legs of the parts together at their lower ends.
