JAMES S. DUNCAN, OF BROWNING, MISSOURI.
COMBINED TUB-STAND AND CLOTHES-RACK.V
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 270,031, dated January 2, 1883.
` Application filed March 27.71882. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JAMES S. DUNCAN, of Browning, in the county of Linn and State of Missouri, have invented a new and Improved Combined TubStand and Clothes-Rack, ot' which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
My invention consists essentially in a novel construction, arrangement, and combination of two frames pivoted at their inner ends to each other and to standards, and provided at their outer ends with legs or supports pivoted at their upper ends to said frames, said frames forming, `when lowered, a stand for tubs and other articles, and when raised serving, together with the said legs and the braces thereof, as a rack for clothes andother articles, substantially as hereinafter described.
Reference is to be had tothe accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar letters of reference indicate .corresponding parts in both the figures.
Figure l is a side view of my invention, the full lines showing the arrangementof the parts when used asa stand for tubs, and the dotted lines showing the positions the frames and auxiliary parts occupy when raised for use as a clothes-rack. Fig. 2 is a top view of the same. l
A A are standards,bifurcated at their lower ends to form legs a a. They are connected at or near their upper ends bya horizontal beam, C, to which a wringer may be attached.
B B are hars, which, with the braces D, to which their outer ends are attached, form the frames for the support ot' tubs and other articles.- 'lhe said bars B are pivoted at their inner ends to the corresponding bars ot' the opposite frame, and also to the standards A, by bolts or pivots b, and are provided at their Vouter ends.with legs or supports E, which are pivoted at their upper ends to said bars B by bolts or pivots c. The said barsB are providedwith hooks c, which engage with eyes j', placed in a suitable position upon the standards A, for the purposeof securing said bars in a nearly upright position 4when desired.
The legs E are provided at or near their lower ends with one or more connecting-V rounds, 62. The legs E Vare prevented from slipping outward by the beam D, which extends below the bars B, as shown in Fig. 1.
The bars F (shown in the dotted lines in Fig. 1) are used for the purpose of supporting the legs E ina horizontal position, or nearly so, when the apparatus is used as a clothes-rack. The middle partsof said bars rest upon the beams C, while the ends are placed under` the legs E, as shown in said dot ted lines.
The operation of myinvention is as follows: When the apparatus is in the position shown in full lines iu Fig. 1 each of the' frames can be used to support a tub, andaclothes wringer may be secured to the cross-beam C.
When it is desired to use the apparatus as a clothes-rack the bars B are raised to the positions shown in dotted lilies in Fig. 1, and
they and the legsE are supported in said po- A sition by the bars F. The clothes may then be hung on the bars C and D and rounds c2, and also, if necessary, upon the legs E. When the apparatus is i'olded up for transportation or other purposes the frames are held in nearly a Vertical position by the hooks c, the legs E hanging downward also in nearlyl a vertical position, thus occupying but little space.
Among the advantages of Iuyiuvention may be cited the following: It "is very convenient for using a wringer, the place for the attachment thereof beingv between the tubs, one of u which may contain the clothes to be wrung and the otherbe placed to receive the clothes after wringing. Any style of wringer may be used. When used as a clothes-rack itis much stronger and stable than some of thosein use.
It can be folded up into a very small compass when not in use. lt` is self-supporting.. It' desired, the bars B may be connected by bars g with hooks g2 for engagement with the rounds e2.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- Acombinedrackandstandhavingtwoframes pivoted at their inner ends to each other as well as to standards, and provided with outer braced legs pivoted at their upper endsito the frames, and a horizontal bar for holding the, legs in a horizontal position when the frames are raised, wherebya rack will be formed when the frames are raised, and a stand when they are lowered, as described.
