Abstract
An apparatus for use with a dryer to prevent an entanglement of sheets disposed therein and to reduce energy consumed and a time required to dry the sheets is provided. The apparatus includes a center hub with a plurality of tubular prongs oriented such that each tubular prong is equidistant from each adjacent tubular prong, and a plurality of tubular members with first ends affixed to the plurality of tubular prongs. Second ends of the plurality of tubular members are configured to sufficiently contact the sheets to create a separation between the sheets to enhance air flow around the sheets when the dryer is operating.
