Definitions

  • the invention relates to protective covers for umbrella-like tumble dryers with a central standpipe and a spreading frame which is preferably arranged such as to be adjustable and which supports a clothesline, can be stretched and collapsed, or garden umbrellas with a central support tube and a covering which can be stretched and stretched and collapsed.
  • umbrella-like tumble dryers so-called laundry spiders, usually remain outdoors so that they can be used to dry laundry at any time without preparation.
  • the clothesline attached to the clothesline now becomes dirty in a short time, which means that before each use, not only the clothesline, but also the support arms that come into contact with the clothes, need to be laboriously cleaned. There is also a permanent risk of the clothesline becoming dirty if the folded clothesline is transported to a basement or storage room.
  • tubular protective covers are known for clothes spiders and also for umbrellas, which are slipped over the folded screen or over the folded clothes spider.
  • the handling of these flexible protective covers which are up to 2 m long, is extremely laborious, since they can be slipped over the likewise unwieldy laundry spider, almost only with the help of an additional auxiliary person.
  • the cover is removed, there is a risk of the cover being lost or damaged.
  • protective caps are known to be pushed onto the garden umbrellas from the outside, which are kept separate from the garden umbrella and are placed on the umbrella by means of rigid, long rods which engage in a pocket of the protective flap. Such caps are not only unwieldy for large garden umbrellas, but there is a risk of loss or damage to both the cap and the pole when the cap is removed.
  • the object of the invention is to eliminate these disadvantages and to provide a protective cover which is easy to use and can be lost at any time and which can be quickly brushed over the unused clothes dryer or over the unused garden umbrella and can be retracted just as quickly and extremely inexpensively can be manufactured.
  • the invention proposes, in the case of an umbrella-type clothes dryer with a central standpipe and a spreading frame which is preferably arranged such that it can be adjusted, supports a clothesline, can be stretched and collapsed, that in a receptacle arranged next to the standpipe, preferably fastened to it, removes one from and out of it is arranged in this retractable sack-shaped cover, which can be slipped over the collapsed expansion frame, a tension member being attached at least to the upper end of the cover when the cover is slipped on.
  • a sack-shaped sleeve which can be pulled out of and pulled back into the upwardly open standpipe, can be placed over the collapsed expansion frame, at least on the upper end of the sleeve when the sleeve is put over Tension member is attached.
  • a tubular casing is arranged in a receptacle which is concentrically surrounding the standpipe below the spreader frame and is open at the top, and which can be pulled back and retracted therein, and which can be pulled over from below by the folded spreader frame, at least at a traction member is attached to the upper end of the casing.
  • the invention proposes that a bag-shaped cover which can be pulled out of and retracted from the open and retractable support tube is arranged over the folded up spreading frame and the covering , wherein a traction member is attached at least to the upper end of the sheath when the sheath is slipped on.
  • a tubular shell is arranged in a receptacle concentrically surrounding the support tube below the expansion frame, and can be pulled out of and pulled back into this, via the folded expansion frame and covering, at least at the upper end of the Sheath a traction element is attached.
  • the sack or tubular casing can be easily slid by a single person out of the receptacle or the standpipe or the support tube over the folded spreading frame including the hanging clothesline or fabric and by means of the pulling element back into the receptacle or are pulled into the standpipe or support tube.
  • the upwardly open receptacle opens into a trumpet-shaped deflecting part which covers the folded expansion frame.
  • a trumpet-shaped deflection part is provided at the upper end of the standpipe or the support tube, which covers the collapsed expansion frame.
  • a pulling line can be provided as the pulling element through the receiving container or through the standpipe or the support pipe.
  • a spring, rubber cord or the like fastened in the receptacle or in the standpipe or in the support tube can be provided as the pulling element, which is optionally attached via a pull cord to the upper end of the sleeve when the sleeve is slipped on.
  • the sleeve pulled and fixed over the folded spreading frame together with the clothesline or covering needs to be loosened and released, whereupon the sleeve is automatically moved into the receptacle or into the standpipe or into the support tube by the spring or the rubber cord or the like is pulled.
  • pull tabs can be attached according to the invention to the lower end of the casing when the casing is slipped on. These pull tabs make it easier to slip the cover over the expansion frame and can also be used to fix the cover, e.g. by hanging them on the lower ends of the arms of the spreader frame or on the sliding sleeve of the spreader frame encompassing the standpipe.
  • pull tabs are provided with knobs directed towards the expansion frame, which abut the outer edge of the deflecting part when the casing is withdrawn. In this way, pulling the sheath too far into the receptacle or into the standpipe or into the support tube is avoided.
  • the invention proposes in a receptacle surrounding the standpipe of the tumble dryer or the support tube of the garden umbrella as springs, rubber cords or the like attached to the upper end of the casing when the casing is covered.
  • FIG. 1 shows a first embodiment of a folded tumble dryer with a partially covered cover from the side
  • FIG. 2 shows a second embodiment of a folded tumble dryer from the side
  • FIG. 3 shows the tumble dryer of FIG. 2 with the deflection part removed from above
  • 4 shows a third embodiment of a folded clothes dryer from the side
  • FIGS. 5 and 6 each show an embodiment of a garden umbrella with a covered protective cover from the side.
  • FIG. 1 a dryer is shown with the spreading frame folded and the protective tube retractable into the standpipe.
  • a standpipe 2 which stands upright on the floor 1, carries an umbrella-like expansion frame that can be expanded and collapsed and is made up of hinged support and support arms 3, the arms of which are articulated on sleeves 4 which can be displaced and locked on the standpipe 2.
  • the support arms 5 of the expansion frame 3, which carry a washing line (not shown), are articulated on the lower sleeve 4, while the support arms which are hidden by the support arms 5 when the expansion arm 3 is folded are articulated on the upper sleeve 4.
  • the upward open standpipe 2 opens at its upper end into a trumpet-shaped deflection part 6, the outer edge 7 of which projects outward beyond the folded expansion frame 3.
  • a sack-shaped casing 8 In the interior of the standpipe 2 there is a sack-shaped casing 8 and a pulling element attached to it.
  • This tension member consists of a tension spring 9 which is attached to one end of the sheath 8 by means of a pull cord 10.
  • the traction element can also be a rubber cord attached directly to the casing end and to the standpipe.
  • a pull line attached to the casing end can be provided, which runs downward from the casing end through the standpipe and is led laterally out of the standpipe through an opening in the region of the lower end of the standpipe.
  • the casing 8 extends from its end in the standpipe 2, which is connected to the pulling element, in the standpipe 2, spreads outward via the trumpet-shaped deflection part 6, reverses its direction and runs outside over the folded expansion frame 3 downward.
  • Pull tabs 11 are attached to the outer end of the cover 8 in FIG. 1, with the cover 8 completely slipped on, with which the cover 8 can be anchored at the lower end of the support arms 5.
  • knobs 12 On the side of the pull tabs facing the expansion frame 3 there are knobs 12 which, when the casing 8 is pulled into the standpipe 2, get caught on the outer edge 7 of the deflection part 6 and thus fix the casing 8 with its outer end on the deflection part 6.
  • the receptacle 13 is designed as a tube running parallel to the standpipe 2, which opens upwards into a trumpet-shaped deflection part 6, the outer edge of which covers the folded expansion frame 3.
  • a pull cord 14 is fastened to the upper end 8 of the cover 8 when the cover 8 is completely covered and the inner end 8 drawn into the receptacle 13, which is led laterally out of the receptacle 13.
  • the lower end of the cover 8, when the cover 8 is completely slipped over and when the cover 8 is drawn into the receptacle 13, is provided with inwardly projecting knobs 12 which engage under the outer edge of the deflection part 6 when the cover is retracted.
  • the pull line 14 led out of the receptacle 13 can be replaced by a spring tension or the like arranged in the receptacle, which is stretched over the expansion frame when the cover is slipped on and when the cover is released for the automatic Retraction of the sleeve in the receptacle ensures.
  • FIG. 4 shows a clothes dryer with the spreading frame 3 folded and with a receptacle 13 for a tubular protective sleeve 8 arranged at the lower end of the standpipe 2 and concentrically surrounding the standpipe 2.
  • the protective cover 8 is fastened at its lower end in the receptacle 13 and, when not in use, is gathered together in the receptacle 13.
  • tension members running in the longitudinal direction of the protective cover, e.g. Pull lines, attached, which run along the protective cover and down through the receptacle. If the protective cover 8 is to be slipped over the folded expansion frame 3, it is pulled up at its upper edge and pulled over the expansion frame 3 and above e.g.
  • the garden umbrella 15 has a support tube 17 which is open at the top and is inserted in a stand 18.
  • the bag-shaped protective cover 16 is designed analogously to the protective cover in the tumble dryer of FIG. 1 and can be pulled back into the supporting tube by means of a pull cord or a rubber cord or a spring.
  • tubular protective sheath 16 is pulled out of the receptacle 19 concentrically surrounding the support tube 17 from below via the screen.
  • the tubular protective cover 16 is designed analogously to the protective cover of the clothes dryer in FIG. 4.
