Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0272361A1] The umbrella-type clothes drier (1) possesses four supporting arms (3) fastened in an articulated manner to a supporting sleeve (4) which is displaceable along a vertical mast (2). The clothes drier (1) can be folded together as a result of the displacement of the supporting sleeve (4) in cooperation with a strut (8) assigned to each arm (3). The clothesline portions (7') extending between the supporting arms (3) hang down loosely when the clothes drier (1) is in the folded-together state. So that the umbrella-type clothes drier (1) does not have to be extended every time for individual articles or for small articles, a part (7a) of the clothesline (7) can be pulled out. So that the pulled-out part (7a) does not sag, the associated arm (3) can be locked and is equipped with a blocking device (11) for the pulled-out part (7a) of the clothesline. If appropriate, there can be a pull-back device (16) which pulls the released part (7a) of the clothesline into the folded-together clothes drier (1). <IMAGE>
