UNITED STATES ARTHUR H. PECKHAM, OF CHILOQUIN, OREGON.
GARMENT HANGER.
Application filed December 6, 1926. Serial No. 152,970.
This invention relates to garment hangers, and contemplates a structure wherein the component parts can be quickly and conveniently folded to produce a. comparatively small compact article when not in use, so that the handle can be nicely arranged within a valise, hand bag or the like.
The nature and advantages of the invention will be better understood when the fol lowing detail description is read in connection with theaccompauying drawing, the invention residing in the COIlStl'UCtlOIl, combination and arrangement of parts as claimed.
In the drawing forming part of this application like numerals of reference indicate similar parts in the several views and wherein:
Figure 1 is a view in elevation of the hanger with the members extended for use.
Figure 2 is a view showing the hanger folded.
Figure 3 is an enlarged fragmentary sectional view through the bridge piece showing how the various sections of the holder are associated therewith.
Figure 4 is a sectional view taken on l ne 4-4 of Figure 3.
Referring to the drawing in detail 10 indicates the bridge piece of the device which has associated therewith a foldable hook 12, used for suspending the hanger from a suitable support. This hook is formed from a single length of wire bent upon itself to provide opposed companion portions adapted to straddle or embrace the component parts of the hanger when the latter are folded a illustrated by full lines in Figure 2. The bridge piece 10 is provided with a transverse opening 10' to receive the inwardly extended ofi'set extremities 12 of the hook as shown in Figure 4, which construction per- -mits the hook to be swung pivotally upon the bridge piece 10 to either an active or inactive position. The outer end of the hook of course is closed by reason of its formation, and consequently when the hook is swung downwardly to a folded position, tills closed end engages the adjacent portion of the hanger to limit the pivotal movement of the hook in one direction as will be readily understood.
The lower edge of the bridge piece 10 is slotted as it 13 to permit the sections 14 and 15 respectively to be extended from the bridge piece 10 in a manner shown in Figure 1, and also to assume positions in parallel relation when these sections are folded. Each of these sect-ions is connected with the bridge piece 10 by means of a link 16, the link being pivoted within the slot 13 of the bridge piece, and also secured in a slot 17 formed in the adjacent end of the particular section.
The outer end of each of the sections 14 and 15 is slotted to receive the link 18 which pivotally connects the section to the adjacent end of a bracing bar such as illustrated in Figure 1. This bar includes sections 19 and 20 which are hingedly connected together as at 21, so that the sections of the bar can be folded between and in parallelism with the sections 14 and 15 of the hanger when desired. For this purpose it is only necessary to move the sections 19 and 20 upwardly in j the direction of the bridge piece 10, whereupon the sections 1 1 and 15 are moved toward each other to lie adjacent the sections of the bracing bar as clearly shown in Figure 2. The invention is very simple in construction and can be manufactured and sold at a very nominal cost.
While it is believed that from the foregoing description, the nature and advantages of the invention will be readily apparent, I
desire to have it understood that I do not.
limit myself to what is herein shown and described and that such changes may be resorted to when desired as fall within the scope of what is claimed.
What is claimed is:
1. A garment hanger of the character described comprising a bridge piece, pivoted sections thereon adapted to extend obliquely therefrom, a bracing bar pivotally connected with the ends of said sections, said bar including pivotally connected sections, whereby the latter and the first mentioned sections of the hanger can be folded in parallelism directly beneath said bridge niece, a hook formed from a single length 0 material and including opposed companion portions having their corresponding extremities pivoted on the opposite side of the bridge piece for the purpose specified.
2. A garment hanger of the character de scribed comprising a bridge piece, pivoted sections thereon adapted to extend obliquely therefrom, a bracing bar pivotally connected with the ends of said sections, said bar including pivotally connected sections, whereby the latter and the first mentioned sections ed position and to embrace the folded sections of the hanger, the closed end of said hook limiting the movement of the latter to 10 its folded position.
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature.
ARTHUR H. PECKHAM.
