Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a clothes hanger suitable for use both in a domestic environment and in an industrial environment and able to support substantially any type of article of clothing.
  • the clothes hanger in question is intended to be used advantageously to dry articles of clothing in the hung position.
  • articles of clothing are dried either by means of centrifuging machines provided with systems for internal ventilation using hot air or, more commonly, by hanging them on special clothes racks.
  • drying of the articles of clothing using clothes racks is per se fairly long and the time needed to carry out this operation depends on the atmospheric conditions (humidity and temperature) whether this be performed in closed environments or in open environments.
  • no-iron fabrics As is known, in order to overcome the problem of ironing, more recently articles of clothing made with fabrics which do not have any creases once dried (referred to in the technical jargon of the sector as "no-iron fabrics") have become widespread.
  • the main object of the present invention is therefore that of overcoming the drawbacks associated with systems for drying and preparing articles of clothing of the known type, by providing a new clothes hanger which allows the articles of clothing to be dried quickly while keeping them in a substantially extended position.
  • a further object of the present invention is that of providing a clothes hanger which is practical, constructionally simple and allows articles of clothing made of no-iron fabric to be dried quickly so that they are in a condition ready to be put away hung up inside special enclosures before being worn.
  • the clothes hanger in question having two arms on which an article of clothing is placed, hooking means which are connected centrally to the two arms in order to support the clothes hanger in a raised manner, and a distribution member connected to the arms underneath the hooking means in a central zone of the clothes hanger.
  • the distribution member has an inlet mouth which is designed to receive a flow of air from air supply means which can be associated with it during a drying step, and an outlet mouth which is designed to expel this air flow towards the article of clothing.
  • the air flow allows drying, in the hung position, of the articles of clothing which are placed wet on the clothes hangers.
  • the arms are provided with a plurality of grooves which are designed to allow air to flow towards a zone where the article of clothing is held on the clothes hanger, situated above the arms.
  • 1 denotes in its entirety the clothes hanger according to the present invention.
  • Said clothes hanger consists essentially of two arms 2 which are able to receive and support an article of clothing 20, and hooking means 3 which are connected centrally to the arms 2 so as to support the clothes hanger 1 in a raised manner.
  • the two arms 2 are identical to one another and extend in opposite directions along a common path.
  • the hooking means 3 consist, in the case of the examples shown in the accompanying figures, of a simple hook having a bottom end 4, which is rigidly connected to the clothes hanger 1 in a central zone 5 which is formed between the two arms 2, and a curved top end 6 which is designed to engage with an external support element (not shown) for supporting the clothes hanger 1 in a raised position.
  • Said distribution member has an inlet mouth 8, arranged at the top in the vicinity of the hooking means 3, and an outlet mouth 9 arranged at the bottom so as to be inserted inside the article of clothing 20 once the latter has been placed on the clothes hanger 1 (see Figs. 4, 5 and 6, in which the articles of clothing are, respectively, a pair of trousers, a skirt and a T-shirt).
  • the distribution member 7 has, operationally associated with it, during a step involving drying of the article of clothing 20, air supply means 10 which are able to introduce a flow of air (which is preferably hot) into the inlet mouth 8.
  • the air supply means 10 may consist (especially in a domestic environment) of a hair drier provided with an air emission element (comparable to the element indicated by the number 10 in the figure) able to be engaged with the distribution member 7 by being partially inserted inside it through the inlet mouth 8.
  • the distribution member 7 may have any configuration without thereby departing from the scope of the present inventive field.
  • a distribution member 7 consisting of a substantially cylindrical element with a single inlet mouth 8 and a single outlet mouth 9.
  • the arms 2 are provided with a plurality of substantially vertical grooves 11 able to allow the air to flow between the article of clothing 20 which rests on the arms 2 and the arms 2 themselves.
  • every part of the article of clothing 20 may be rapidly and thoroughly dried.
  • closing means 12 for example clothes pegs
  • said article is held, situated above the arms 2, so as to allow the latter to support the article of clothing 20 on the clothes hanger 1.
  • the presence of the grooves 11 ensures a continuous supply of air towards the holding zone 14, resulting in complete drying thereof.
  • the two arms 2 are made structurally as a single body (for example from plastic material), said body being provided centrally with an opening 15 inside which the distribution member 7 is inserted and fixed.
  • Each arm 2 is divided up, in the region of the central zone 5, into two sections 16 and 17 which are substantially identical and which, curving away from and then joining back up the corresponding section of the other arm 2, form the opening 15 into which the distribution member 7 can be inserted and fixed.
  • the hooking means 3 are mounted on a section 17 in the region of the central zone 5.
  • the clothes hanger 1 at the end of the drying step, allows the articles of clothing 20 consisting of fabrics of the no-iron type (i.e. fabrics which do not require ironing once dried) to be stored away by arranging them hung directly in special enclosures (for example cupboards).
  • these articles of clothing after they have been placed on the clothes hanger 1 according to the present invention and dried on them, prior to being worn, do not need to be ironed or transferred onto other support members. Therefore, in accordance with a method of use of the present invention, the article of clothing 20 made of no-iron fabric, once it has been placed on the clothes hanger 1, after it has been washed and is still wet, is no longer removed from it until the moment when it is used.
