Abstract (en)

A folding rack drier has two frames (4, 7) mutually hinged. At the other ends from the hinge axis the first frame (4) is pivoted to a base (1, 2) while the second frame (7) has projections (12) engageable in tracks (3) in base members (1) and locatable by circumventable abutments (18) at the ends of the tracks (3) remote from the pivot axis (10). With the base (1, 2) on the floor, the frames (4, 7) can be arranged as an inverted V. With the base (1, 2) attached to a wall (13), the frames (4, 7) can have the same configuration, but with the V sideways, or the second frame (7) can be hinged up between the pivot frame (4) and the base (1, 2), the projections (12) sliding up the tracks (3) as the first frame (4) is swung down, or the second frame (7) can be released from the base (1, 2) by the projections (12) being manipulated around the abutments (18) so that the second frame (7) inclines down from the suspended first frame (4) to rest on the floor. <IMAGE>
