<p>The invention relates to an improved clothesline system (4) for automatically securing clothes (6) onto a main clothes cable (10). More specifically, the clothesline system includes a main cable (10) on which clothes (6) are placed and a secondary cable (70) with equally spaced apart clothespins (80). Each clothespin is capable of engaging the main cable at different holding positions. The clothesline system further features a support member (30) to prevent the main cable from sagging under the effect of the weight of clothes beyond an acceptable distance within which the clothespins can automatically engage the clothes. The invention also provides a clothesline system with a first and second cable where the first cable is continuous with the second cable. A cable connector element (110) for use with the clothesline system enables one section of a continuous cable to form the main cable (10) and a second section of the continuous cable to form the secondary cable (70).</p> |
