rotary clothes line

A Hills hoist is a height-adjustable rotary clothes line.

Rotary clothes lines, umbrellas and some lawn games require a firm fixing for the poles that support them.

A Hills Hoist is a height-adjustable rotary clothes line, manufactured in Adelaide, South Australia by Lance Hill since 1945.

Then in 1925 he patented 'Improvements in and relating to hoisting mechanism especially applicable to rotary clothes lines' (Australian Patent No. 24553/25).

Outside toys included a zip-line that took riders for an exhilarating ride down through the yard and into trees and something like an extremely sturdy rotary clothes line with a parachute harness on one arm and a rope on the other.
