Benefits of technology

[0005]Preferably said wall plates are adapted for permanent installation onto a support surface of the mobile vehicle or building. The wall plates facilitate the engaging of base sections of respective extension arms which anchor the clothesline cord.

Problems solved by technology

Owners of recreational vehicles, caravans, motor homes, house boats or the like are limited in their choice of clotheslines of suitable capacity that can be used while on holiday.
Finding a suitable sub-structure to anchor any clothesline of suitable capacity is difficult on these vehicles due to the non-consistent measurement between support members.

Embodiment Construction

[0021]Referring first to FIGS. 1 to 6, the clothesline may comprise of a pair of extension arms 1 with support sections 2, wall plates 3, a plurality of clothesline cords 4 and a spreader bar 5. With this particular embodiment the extension arms and spreader bars are made from steel tube, the support section is made of moulded glass filled nylon and the wall plate is of pressed sheet metal. The clothesline cord used is standard clothesline cord. With all the aforementioned components, other alternative materials may be used within the scope of this invention. Each wall plate 3 contains holes 6 to receive mechanical fasteners such as screws, bolts of the like for fixing to a support surface 7 or other suitable surface at horizontally spaced apart positions. In deployment of the clothesline to its outwardly extended position tapered slots 8 in the back of the extension arm support sections 2 facilitate their location and alignment into mating tapered protrusions 9 formed on the wall p...

Abstract

There is a removable clothesline which has at least two arms with respective waH plates for fixing to a support wall. The arms have outer free ends and inner base sections which in use of the clothesline removably engage the wall plates in a manner whereby the arms extend from the support wall at spaced apart locations to deploy at least one clothesline cord therebetween. The arms upon removal being adapted for placement in a side-by-side storage configuration with the free end of at least one of said arms locating in an aperture in the inner base section of another of said arms.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]This invention relates to a portable clothesline, more particularly, although not exclusively, it discloses an improved removable clothesline for use in travelling vehicles or for confined spaces around the home.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Owners of recreational vehicles, caravans, motor homes, house boats or the like are limited in their choice of clotheslines of suitable capacity that can be used while on holiday. This invention has been devised to provide a portable clothesline which can be quickly attached to most mobile vehicles when stationary and then easily removed and stored when the journey continues. Finding a suitable sub-structure to anchor any clothesline of suitable capacity is difficult on these vehicles due to the non-consistent measurement between support members. It is an object of this invention to overcome this problem by providing a means of making a clothesline any length to suit sub-structure parameters.[0003]Another object of...
