Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen Kleider- und Wäschebügel mit mindestens einem Halteclip zur lösbaren Befestigung von Kleider- und Wäschestücken, wobei der Halteclip aus zwei zueinander beweglichen Klemmelementen besteht und die Klemmelemente jeweils sich gegenüberliegende Ausnehmungen zum Eingriff in jeweils eine an einem Bügelarm ausgebildete Führungsschiene aufweisen.The present invention relates to a clothes and laundry hanger at least one retaining clip for detachable attachment of clothes and Items of laundry, the retaining clip consisting of two movable to one another There are clamping elements and the clamping elements are opposite each other Recesses for engaging in one on a bracket arm have trained guide rail.

Derartige Halteclips für Kleider- und Wäschebügel sind bekannt. Dabei sind die Halteclips üblicherweise entlang der Bügelarme verschiebbar. Dadurch erfolgt allerdings oftmals ein ungewolltes Verschieben der Halteclips, insbesondere wenn die Kleider- und Wäschebügel mit entsprechenden Kleidungs- und Wäschestücken beladen sind. Zudem ist bei den bekannten Kleider- und Wäschebügeln kein definiertes Verschieben und Positionieren der Halteclips möglich. Nachteiligerweise ergeben sich durch ein derartiges Verschieben Falten in den Kleidungsstücken, zudem entsteht ein unästhetischer Gesamteindruck der zu präsentierenden Ware.Such clips for hangers and clothes hangers are known. Here are the Retaining clips usually slidable along the bracket arms. This is done however, often an unwanted shifting of the holding clips, in particular if the clothes and laundry hangers with appropriate clothing and Items of laundry are loaded. In addition, the well-known clothes and Ironing does not move and position the clips securely possible. Disadvantageously, such a shift results Wrinkles in the garments, in addition, there is an unaesthetic overall impression of the goods to be presented.

Die WO-A-90/13248 beschreibt einen Kleiderbügel mit Klemmelementen, die an den jeweiligen Bügelarmen beweglich angeordnet sind. Dabei weisen die Klemmelemente Vorsprünge auf, die in entsprechende Ausnehmungen am Bügelarm eingreifen können. Hierdurch wird erreicht, dass Klemmelemente im geschlossenen Zustand an den Bügelarmen bewegbar sind und in einem zweiten, geöffneten Zustand an den Bügelarmen anliegen und nicht bewegt werden können. Nachteiligerweise sind die Klemmelemente allerdings konstruktiv sehr aufwendig gestaltet. Dies bedeutet, dass deren Herstellung relativ teuer ist. Auch ergeben sich Probleme mit der Dauerbeständigkeit und der Stabilität dieser Klemmelemente.WO-A-90/13248 describes a clothes hanger with clamping elements that are movably arranged on the respective bracket arms. The Clamping elements projections on the corresponding recesses on Arm can intervene. This ensures that clamping elements in closed state are movable on the bracket arms and in a second, open position on the bracket arms and not be moved can. Unfortunately, the clamping elements are very constructive Extensively designed. This means that they are relatively expensive to manufacture. There are also problems with durability and stability of these clamping elements.
