A frame supporting a number of parallel extending tubes is used to support clothes and other laundry for drying. The frame is supported by four cords connected to its corners which extend downwardly from the corners of a drive housing which may be attached to the ceiling or some other high horizontal support. The housing contains a pair of parallel extending spaced shafts rotatably supported in end bearings. One of the shafts may be rotated in reversible directions by a remotely controlled motor connected to an end of that shaft. The motor-driven shaft supports two pairs of pulleys, one on each end. One pulley at each end has the ends of two of the support cords secured to it so as the shaft is rotated by the motor the cords are wound and unwound from the pulleys. The other two pulleys have the other two cords wound about them which cords extend horizontally over a pair of pulleys on the opposite, unmotorized shaft. All four cords extend downwardly through holes in the bottom of the shaft box and are used to lower the grid of tubes for loading and unloading laundry or to raise the grid so that the laundry will hang downwardly from the tubes. |
