ruhaszárító

A ruhaszárító, often referred to as a clothes drying rack or airer, is a device used for hanging laundry to dry. It is a common household item, particularly in regions where line drying outdoors is not always feasible due to weather conditions or space limitations. Ruhaszárítók come in various designs, with the most common being foldable, freestanding units. These typically feature a series of horizontal bars or rungs upon which garments can be draped.

The primary function of a ruhaszárító is to allow clothes to dry by air circulation. This is a gentler and more energy-efficient method of drying compared to using a mechanical clothes dryer. The open design of the rack maximizes surface area for airflow, facilitating the evaporation of water from the fabric. Many models are collapsible, allowing for easy storage when not in use, making them suitable for smaller living spaces.

Materials used in the construction of ruhaszárítók vary, but commonly include metal (such as steel or aluminum) and plastic. Some higher-end models might incorporate wood for aesthetic appeal or specific structural benefits. The design often considers stability, ensuring the rack can hold a significant amount of wet laundry without tipping over. Alternatives to the standard freestanding models include wall-mounted racks, over-the-door racks, and ceiling-mounted pulley systems, each offering different space-saving solutions. The choice of ruhaszárító often depends on the user's available space, the volume of laundry, and personal preference.
