DE8701864U1 - Non-slip coat hanger - Google Patents

Description

The invention relates to a non-slip clothes hanger according to the preamble of claim 1.

Known metal coat hangers of this type (Catalogue P 54/7.5 - 12.84 "Quality only affects quality" of the Applicant, page 14, article numbers 3661, 3863 and 3871) are, apart from the nickel-plated hook, covered with a non-slip coating of around 1.0 to 3.0 mm thick plastic. This means that the surface parts of the hangers also have the non-slip coating, even if they do not come into contact with the garment. The consumption of non-slip coating material is therefore quite high for the well-known hangers. Furthermore, Existing coat hangers cannot be subsequently provided with such a non-slip coating. The hanger body is covered by the coating and is therefore no longer visible. The use of the well-known non-slip coating is restricted to coat hangers made of metal profiles or wire.

Another well-known coat hanger of the type mentioned above (mentioned catalogue P 54/7.5-12.84, page 11, item no. 3391) has wooden legs into which a rubber rib is attached along the entire length. Here

The rubber and manufacturing costs are quite high. Existing metal or plastic brackets cannot be retrofitted with such a rubber rib at _all and wooden brackets cannot be retrofitted at a reasonable cost.

The invention is based on the task of existing small _:

derhanger subsequently or new coat hangers, independent |

from the outer material and the design of the clothes hangers, to make them non-slip with little effort.

This object is _achieved by the features of claim 1.

The anti-slip layer can be applied locally to clothing 3

hangers made of wood, plastic or metal. For wooden hangers, the anti-slip coating can be

Layer e.g. on the finished stained, polished or varnished I

te surface as a top layer. The ? application of the anti-slip layer can be achieved, for example, by

Immersion of the relevant part of the thigh or Legs in a container with a varnish that,

after drying, the anti-slip layer is created. The I

Application of the anti-slip layer only on a part \

the surface of each leg has the advantage that only \

relatively little anti-slip material for the layer ■'

is required and that the remaining, not excessive f

Surface part of the legs without affecting its f Surface finishes remain visible. i The features of claim 2 are of particular advantage, \

because this usually causes a small slip -:-

both legs, which often contain advertising prints from the buyers of the coat hangers.

According to claim 3, the advantages of the anti-slip layer are also used for a bar of the clothes hanger. From a manufacturing point of view, it is particularly advantageous to immerse the entire bar and the free leg ends of the clothes hanger in a container with the anti-slip varnish.

With the features of claim 4, a particularly low-slip material is required. In addition, a maximum surface of the coat hanger remains free of the anti-slip layer and thus completely unaffected optically. The application of a varnish resulting in the anti-slip layer can in this case be done by rolling it up, for example.

Claim 5 characterizes an anti-slip layer with particularly advantageous properties.

The anti-slip layer according to claim 6 is practically unnoticeable due to its relatively small thickness and is nevertheless very effective.

According to claim 7, the surface parts of the clothes hanger provided with the anti-slip layer can be seen even after the coating. This is particularly desirable if the hanger body has a particularly striking color on its surface.

The invention is explained in more detail below using the embodiments shown in the drawings. Further features and advantages of the invention can be found in the description. It shows:

Fig. 1 shows a coat hanger 1 designed as a wooden coat hanger with legs 2 and 3 and a hook 4.

The clothes hanger 1 is stained, varnished or polished in the usual way. A non-slip layer 5 is applied to the respective finish at the free end of each leg 2, 3 only where the leg ends come into contact with a non-drawn item of clothing hung on the clothes hanger 1. A lower surface 6 and 7 of each leg 2, 3 is in this case

not covered with the anti-slip layer.

The anti-slip layer 5 is translucent and has a thickness of about 0.04 mm and consists of a copolymer soluble in organic solvents made of

Polyvinyl chloride and polyvinyl acetate. So that is

Finish of the coat hanger 1 is still visible through the anti-slip layer 5, so that the overall taste impression of the coat hanger 1 is not disturbed by the anti-slip layer 5. On the other hand, the anti-slip layer 5 prevents all items of clothing hung on the clothes hanger 1 from slipping off the legs 2, 3. Due to the low thickness of the anti-slip layer 5, its transition to the leg 2, leaves no steps that could affect the hanging item of clothing. Existing coat hangers 1 can also be made non-slip in a simple way by rolling a varnish, which later forms the anti-slip layer 5, onto the free ends of the legs 2, 3. Alternatively, the free end of each leg could be cle 2, 3 are dipped in such a varnish. Then the lower surface 6, 7 would also be covered with the anti-slip layer 5.

However, the bonding force of the anti-slip layer 5 to the legs 2, 3 is so great that there is no risk of the anti-slip layer 5 becoming detached from the legs 2, 3 even if the lower surfaces 6, 7 are not covered with the anti-slip layer 5.

In the section according to Fig. 2, to simplify the drawing, the finish of the wooden Leg 3 under the anti-slip roof 5 is omitted.

In all embodiments, identical parts are provided with identical reference numbers.

The coat hanger 1 according to Fig. 3 is also made of wood and is in this case covered all around with the anti-slip layer 5 at the free ends of its legs 2, 3. A web 8 is attached between the free ends of the legs 2, 3, which is also covered overall with the anti-slip layer.

The anti-slip coating 5 is applied to the coat hanger 1 according to Fig. 3, for example, by dipping it into a suitable varnish. The coat hanger 1 according to Fig. 3 also effectively protects items of clothing such as trousers that are hung on the bar 6 from slipping. chert.

In the sectional view according to Fig. 4, the finish on the leg 2 and the web 8 is again omitted to simplify the illustration. Here, as in Fig. 2 and 6, the thickness of the anti-slip layer 5 is shown exaggeratedly large to facilitate the graphic representation.

The coat hanger 1 according to Fig. 5 is made of plastic. The hook 4 and the web β are molded onto the legs 2, 3. The free ends of the legs 2, 3 and the web 8 are subsequently coated with the anti-slip layer 5, e.g. by dipping them in a suitable varnish.

Fig. 6 shows that in this case also the leg 2 has a circular cross-sectional area.
