Abstract

A towel rack assembly comprising a mounting bracket, post or rod, a connecting module securely affixed to said mounting bracket and at least one control arm or rod securely or adjustably affixed to the connecting module, wherein a towel with a unique sleeve disposed at one end of the towel can be threadable mounted on the control arm or rod.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A towel rack assembly comprising a mounting bracket, post or rod, a connecting module securely affixed to said mounting bracket and at least one control arm or rod securely or adjustably affixed to said connecting module, wherein a towel with a unique sleeve disposed at one end of the towel can be threadable mounted on the control arm or rod. 
     
     
         2 . The assembly according to  claim 1 , further comprising at least one stationary hook. 
     
     
         3 . The assembly according to  claim 1 , wherein said control arm or rod is longitudinally, horizontally or reciprocally adjustable about said connecting module. 
     
     
         4 . The assembly according to  claim 3 , wherein said connecting module comprises a spring actuator that returns each said horizontally or reciprocally adjustable control arm or rod back to its original starting position. 
     
     
         5 . The assembly according to  claim 1 , wherein a plurality of control arms or rods are securely affixed to said connecting module in a descending step fashion, wherein said control arm or rod closest to said mounting bracket would be at a higher plane than said control arm or rod disposed furthest from said mounting bracket. 
     
     
         6 . The assembly according to  claim 1 , wherein said connecting module further comprises an actuator which moves said connecting module to assist in loading of a towel on said control arm or rod. 
     
     
         7 . The assembly according to  claim 1 , further comprising a threadable, removable towel disposed about said control arm or rod. 
     
     
         8 . The assembly according to  claim 1 , further comprising a towel bar extender arm affixed to said connecting module or mounting bracket. 
     
     
         9 . The assembly according to  claim 1 , wherein said control arm or rod comprises a first component that is removably affixed to said connecting module and a second component that is removably affixed to said first component, wherein said second component is able to withstand up to about 10 to about 15 pounds of pressure. 
     
     
         10 . The assembly according to  claim 1 , wherein said control arm or rod is reciprocally disposed about said connecting module to allow for movement of said control arm or rod upon inadvertent contact with a user. 
     
     
         11 . The assembly according  claim 7 , wherein said threadable, removable towel comprises a hollow mounting sleeve disposed about one end of said towel, wherein said hollow sleeve is threadable about said control arm or rod. 
     
     
         12 . The assembly according to  claim 1 , wherein said mounting bracket is a magnet. 
     
     
         13 . The assembly according to  claim 1 , wherein said mounting bracket is connected to a supporting base, such that that assembly is a stand-alone assembly. 
     
     
         14 . The assembly according to  claim 13 , wherein said mounting bracket is a pole disposed centrally within said supporting base and wherein said connecting module is adjustably affixed to said pole, such that said connecting module provides for said control arm or rod to expand to the open position via a push button actuator. 
     
     
         15 . A towel rack assembly for hanging on a door, wherein said assembly comprises at least one door bracket, a support bracket, a plurality of flat towel support brackets mounted perpendicular to said support bracket, a rear bracket and a front bracket. 
     
     
         16 . The assembly according to  claim 15 , further comprising a plurality of stationary hooks mounted to said front bracket. 
     
     
         17 . The assembly according to  claim 15 , wherein said support bracket comprises first and second ends, and a center portion which is off-set from said first and second ends. 
     
     
         18 . A towel rack assembly, wherein said assembly comprises: a base portion, a vertical support member, a support bracket, a plurality of flat towel support brackets mounted perpendicular to said support bracket, a rear bracket and a front bracket, wherein said vertical support member is secured to rear bracket. 
     
     
         19 . The assembly according to  claim 18 , wherein said flat towel supports are shorter in length than said rear and front brackets 
     
     
         20 . The assembly according to  claim 18 , wherein said flat towel support includes a plastic tip disposed about the open end thereof.
