Clothes Cleaning System
A clothes cleaning system, including at least one laundry cleaning machine equipped with a mechanical arm and at least one laundry container. The clothes cleaning system utilizes the computer controlled mechanical arm to extract laundry items for loading or unloading the laundry cleaning machine. Users only need to place their laundry into the laundry container, wait for the cleaning process to complete and then take back their cleaned laundry. The clothes cleaning system may also include a robotic folding mechanism to fold laundry items before storage. The clothes cleaning system can also incorporate a storage system with a mechanical arm to place the basket to a location designated by a computer. The clothes cleaning system may also include a robotic laundry hanging system equipped with a robotic arm, which can hang individual items to air dry. The clothes cleaning system can also include a customer interface, which can recognize customers and their laundry container code when receiving or returning laundry to the customer. The clothes cleaning system can also incorporate a heat exchanger system to recover waste heat for recycling in the system.

Clothes line system with horizontal synchronized pulleys
A clothes line system has a pair of spaced horizontal pulleys mounted respectively on support arms above the ground. Each pulley is formed with radially extending spokes having mounted on each end thereof a Y-shaped line engagement member that engages a clothes line entrained around the pulleys. The overall length of the clothes line is substantially a multiple of the linear distance between adjacent Y-shaped line engagement members on the pulleys. As a result, the Y-shaped line engagement members engage essentially the same location along the clothes line with the clothes aligning between the Y-shaped line engagement members as they pass around the pulleys. One of the pulleys maintains tension in the entrained clothes line utilizing a support arm structure that has a telescopic portion drawn toward a base member. A tilt adjustment device interconnecting the support arm and the vertical post orient the angle of the support arms.
