Description

[Detailed description of the invention] Industrial application field This invention is a futon drying frame that is attached to a shelf on a balcony, drying area, etc., and is used to maintain and fix the futon drying frame at the same height as the shelf installed on the balcony. This relates to a futon drying frame for the purpose of simultaneously exposing one entire side of a futon to sunlight to dry it on a shelf on a balcony.

Conventional technology When drying futons in the past, the futons were usually placed directly on a balcony, on a shelf in a drying area, or on a clothesline, but in this case only about half of one side of the outer surface was exposed to sunlight. Since I couldn't dry the futon, I would change the front and back sides mid-way through the drying process, but during that time the drying side would get cold, and I wasn't able to completely dry the entire futon and allow the moisture to evaporate. In addition, to prevent futons from falling from the drying area, large wash clips were used to stop them, and in the case of high-rise houses, futons were tied to shelves with strings. Even though drying futons is a daily task, it is not only surprisingly time-consuming, but also difficult to completely dry the futons.

How to solve the problem Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, we first provided a horizontal frame and an inclined frame, and devised a futon drying frame that can be attached and fixed to a shelf B on a balcony, etc. An application has already been filed (Utility Application No. 58-200720). In this design, since the slope is fixed and protrudes outward, it hangs down towards the residents' houses downstairs, which blocks out the sunlight and leaves the downstairs balcony in the shade when drying futons in high-rise houses. There was a problem in that it caused In order to improve this point, an application was filed for a futon drying frame stand in which the U-shaped futon receiving seat provided at the vertical end of the right-angle fixing frame could be moved back and forth (Utility Application No. 59-55747), but this In the original design, the vertical frame supporting the futon extended outward from shelf B, which partially blocked the use of sunlight on the downstairs veranda, so it could not be said that the shade was eliminated. It also has the disadvantage of being unfavorable in terms of appearance, and the structure is somewhat complex.
The problem remained that the weight and price increased accordingly.

Improvements of the present invention The present invention is a partial improvement of the above-mentioned invention, and consists of a rectangular futon insertion slot, a rotatable futon placement frame, a futon insertion guide, and a futon receiving seat, and has a simple structure. The height is the same as the balcony shelf. In use, it is attached to a shelf B on a balcony or the like, but it can be easily removed and the futon can be effectively dried on the downstairs balcony without infringing on the right to sunlight. Moreover, to provide an improved futon drying frame which prevents futons from falling down, does not spoil the aesthetic appearance of high-rise houses, and is extremely necessary and effective in daily life.

The configuration of the futon drying frame according to the present invention will be explained below with reference to the drawings.

About the structure of the present invention Figure 1 is a perspective view of the present invention, in which 1 is a horizontal rod made of a metal member, and both left and right ends of a metal rod 2 facing the horizontal rod 1 are bent at right angles to form a character-shaped frame. death,
The ends of the left and right bent pieces 2a and 2b are fixed to the horizontal rod 1 to form a rectangular futon insertion opening A. A rectangular futon mounting frame 3 is rotatably attached to a metal rod located on one side of this futon insertion slot A.
The tips of the left and right frame rods are formed into annular shapes 4a and 4b. 5 is a rod body made by bending a metal rod at right angles into an L shape. Several of these rods 5 are placed at predetermined intervals inside the futon insertion opening A, and the upper ends of the rods 5 are inserted into the insertion opening A.
Guide shelves 5a, 5b, and 5c are provided to protrude above. This guide pushes out the tip first when drying a futon placed on the futon placement frame. At this time, the tip of the futon hits the guide shelf, and when the futon is further pushed out through the insertion port, the tip gradually hangs down inside the futon drying frame 555. A guide shelf is provided to move the futon in this way. And this guide 5
Although a, 5b, and 5c are limited to three in the drawing,
The number is not necessarily limited to three, but a large number may be provided depending on the length of the insertion port A and the spacing between the parallel metal rods. Note that the length of the metal rod 555 is set to be equal to the height of a shelf on a balcony or the like. Reference numeral 6 denotes a futon receiving seat that is guided by guides 5a, 5b, and 5c and that locks the tip of the futon. This receiving seat 6 is a futon holding frame formed of a metal rod 555 and has only one side, but since the futon drying frame of the present invention is installed on a shelf on a balcony or the like, it is a frame that only holds the futon on one side. A body 555 is provided. 7 is a horizontal rod which fixes the tip of the bent portion 666 of the L-shaped metal rod in a straight line. This makes the futon drying frame strong. Although not shown in the figure, in order to strengthen the frame holding the futon, a metal rod may be attached horizontally in the middle of the frame. 8a and 8b are metal pieces for reinforcing the connection attached to both the left and right ends of the horizontal rod 7. When the metal pieces 8a and 8b are attached to the shelf B, they are reinforcing pieces for reinforcing both connections, and one end is placed on the horizontal rod of the shelf. Note that 9a, 9b, 10a, 10
b indicates a connecting fitting when attached to the horizontal bars 11 and 12 of shelf B. With this metal fitting, the futon drying frame of the present invention is firmly connected to a shelf on a balcony or the like. 13a,
Reference numeral 13b represents vertical bars provided at both left and right ends of the shelf B. Note that 14a, 14b, 15a, and 15b indicate horizontal bars on the left and right sides of the shelf B. The drawing shows only one of the left and right ends, and the other end is omitted. 16 indicates a futon.

Embodiment An embodiment of the usage state of the futon drying frame of the present invention constructed as described above will be explained as follows based on FIGS. 1 and 2.
