ABSTRACT:
A multiple article drying rack includes a base assembly and a plurality of upright posts, a central rod, and a plurality of fingers mounted on the base assembly. The base assembly includes pairs of end support members, a pair of middle support members, and rotary connectors defining substantially parallel rotational axes and pivotally coupling the end support members together, the end support members and middle support members together and the middle support members together so as to define the base assembly as at least a pair of parallelogram structures convertible between erected and collapsed conditions. The upright posts are mounted at lower ends on respective ones of the rotary connectors and extend upwardly therefrom along the rotational axes thereof so as to receive and hold articles, such as baby bottles, in inverted orientations over upper ends of the upright posts. The central rod has a hook on its upper end and is supported at its lower end on a central one of the rotary connectors with a plurality of pins mounted to the rod between its upper and lower ends. The fingers are mounted to the end and middle support members between and spaced from the upright posts mounted by the rotary connectors at opposite ends of the end and middle support members.
