ABSTRACT:
The novel rack has a first pair of generally inverted U-shaped rigid members so arranged that one member has its legs disposed within and pivotally joined to the corresponding legs of the other near the mid-points thereof. A second pair of generally inverted U-shaped rigid members substantially identical to the first pair and disposed and pivotally joined to one another in a manner substantially identical to the first pair is positioned atop the first pair. The free ends of the legs of the second pair are pivotally connected to the legs of the first pair where the legs of the first pair join the bights. Rigid bracing means are provided which releasably interconnect the two members of said first pair and releasably lock it into non-collapsed condition. Plastic cord means are threaded into the bracing means and the rigid members to allow articles such as drying clothes, to be supported therefrom when the rack is in its non-collapsed condition.
In another form, the rack has a single upper, generally inverted-U-shaped rigid member whose legs are connected at or near their respective mid-points to a pair of rigid member and also has a bracing means comprising a single generally horizontal U-shaped member coupled to said single upper rigid member and to said pair of rigid members.
