  • Patent number: 5881474
    Abstract: For a contracting and expanding bellows hose connected from a clothes dryer to an opening in a wall to vent hot air to atmosphere, a kink-obviating hose support on the back of the dryer which limits contraction and expansion to a selected length portion of the hose, wherein there is adequate hose expansion to permit movement away from the wall to provide working clearance for maintenance and yet, when the dryer is moved back against the wall, the length portion is too short to fold or kink as would block the exiting flow of the hot air.
