(57) A clothes airer comprising a foldable support structure (1), of the type presenting:
two support elements (2, 3) connected together by first hinge means (4) enabling said
elements (2, 3) to be disposed such as to form an inverted V when said clothes airer
is in an operative position (O), and to be disposed substantially parallel and close
together when the clothes airer is in a rest position (R), said clothes airer comprising
two clothes holding elements (5, 6) each connected by second hinge means (17) to one
of said support elements (2, 3) such that the plane (P1) in which said holding elements
(5, 6) lies can be disposed in a predetermined position (M1) inclined to the plane
(P2) in which the respective support element (2, 3) lies by a predetermined angle
(A) when the clothes airer is in an operative position (O), said support elements
(2, 3) and holding elements (5, 6) comprising respectively a locking member (7) and
counter-member (8) shaped such that, when the clothes airer is in an operative position
(O), said holding elements (5, 6) are able to maintain said predetermined inclined
position (M1) and, when the clothes airer is in a rest position (R), said holding
elements (5, 6) can be disposed substantially coplanar with the plane in which the
respective support elements (2, 3) with which they are associated lie; said locking
member (7) and counter-member (8) being shaped to enable said holding elements (5,
6) to assume a closed position (F2) in which the holding elements (5, 6) are substantially
superposed in the manner of a sandwich on said support elements (2, 3).
