Abstract (en)

The clothes rack, especially for drying and airing laundry, has swing rods (6) on a base unit (4) with a swing mounting. The laundry rack has a tongue and groove mounting to hold the base and swing rods together, with the open groove at the base and a projection at the swing rod to grip into it. The projection at the rod has a T- or cylinder or ball shape to fit into a corresponding groove at the base. The base has at least one laying surface (10), or the like, to support a swing rod when deployed to take laundry on it. The base unit has a U-shape, with one leg acting together with the swing rods and the other leg supports the rods when they are swung out for use. The swing rods, to carry the laundry, have two parallel side sections (12) flanking the rods, which have telescopic sections (8). Clothes lines can be on swing mountings instead of rods, to carry the laundry. The swing rods have projections (14,16) to hold the telescopic rods, as pins, to hold the inside of a telescopic rod section and the opposite projection grips around the outside of the end of the other telescopic section. The projections have different dimensions on the inner and outer sides of the parallel side sections to match the inner and outer diameter dimensions of the telescopic rod sections. The projections are injection molded components, with end recesses parallel to each other.
