[0011]
As shown in FIG. 2, the left end of the horizontal frame (4) has a screw inserted into two upper and lower screw holes (11) formed in the right side wall (1a) of the vertical frame (1A) at the upper and lower portions thereof. The two screws (9) are fixed to the left side wall (1b) of the vertical frame (1A) by inserting the screw (9) into the horizontal frame (4). A through hole (12) is provided, and a closed cap (13) is attached to each through hole (12). The right end of the horizontal frame (4) and both ends of the horizontal frame (5) are also attached in the same manner as described above.
[0012]
The spherical head (6) of the hanger suspension member (8) is made of synthetic resin, and a male screw formed on the upper part of the hook (7) is fitted into a screw hole formed on the lower part thereof.
[0013]
As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the hinge (3) is made of synthetic resin and is fitted into the ends of a pair of longitudinal frames (1A) (1B) (2A) (2B) adjacent to each other in the front-rear direction. Two plug parts (23) (24) and a bendable connecting part (25) for connecting upper parts of both plug parts (23) (24) are provided.
[0014]
The connecting portion (25) is provided between adjacent edges of the rectangular plate-like cover portion (27) covering the end openings of each pair of vertical frames (1A) (1B) (2A) (2B). . The plug portion (23) (24) includes front and rear walls (23a) (23b) (24a) (24b) and both side walls (23c) (23d) (24c) provided near the periphery of the cover portion (27). (24d).
[0015]
According to the coupling hinge (3) of the present embodiment, both plug portions (23) and (24) are simply fitted into the end openings of the vertical frames (1A), (1B), (2A), and (2B). Adjacent ends of the vertical frames (1A) (1B) (2A) (2B) can be bent through the connecting part (25) formed in the cover part (27) of the plug part (23) (24) Connected to
[0016]
As shown in FIG. 5 (a), the vertical frames (1A), (1B), (2A), and (2B) that are adjacent to each other in the front-rear direction are in a state of abutting in parallel with each other in the folded state. Stability can also be ensured when racks are folded and stacked in large numbers.
[0017]
In the present embodiment, the connecting portion (25) is provided between adjacent edges of the cover portion (27), but without providing the cover portion (27), the plug portions (23) and (24) are adjacent to each other. You may provide so that a connection part may be passed over the edge part which fits.
[0018]
6 and 7 show another embodiment of the hinge, and the connecting hinge (36) is an adjacent end of a pair of vertical frames (1A) (1B) (2A) (2B) adjacent to the front and rear. Two plugs (33) and (34) that can be fitted into the section, and two connecting strip members (35) that can be bent, and the half portion (35a) of each strip member (35) The plug (33) to be fitted into the vertical frame (1A) (2A) and the other vertical frame (1B) (2B) side wall of one vertical frame (1A) (2A) are fixed. The other half (35b) of the belt-shaped member (35) is inserted into the other vertical frame (1B) (2B), and the other vertical frame (1B) (2B) has one vertical frame. (1A) (2A) It is fixed between the side walls.
[0019]
The plug (33) (34) has a rectangular plate-shaped cover (37) covering the end opening of the vertical frame (1A) (1B) (2A) (2B) at the top thereof, as in the above embodiment. The front and rear walls (33a), (33b), (34a), (34b) and the side walls (33c), (33d), (34c), and (34d) that are provided near the edges of the cover (37). .
[0020]

[0021]
According to the coupling hinge (36) of this embodiment, as in the above embodiment, as shown in FIG. 7 (a), each pair of vertical frames (1A) (1B) (2A) (2B) In the folded state, since they are in contact with each other in parallel, stability can be ensured even when the hanger rack is folded and stacked in large numbers.
[0022]
Plugs (33) and (34) with the upper part as a cover (37) are fitted into the lower ends of the vertical frames (1A), (1B), (2A), and (2B) without interposing the connecting strip member (35). It is put.
[0023]
【The invention's effect】
The hanger rack of the present invention is foldable by a hinge provided between the upper ends of a pair of vertical frames adjacent to each other in the front and rear, so that it is convenient to carry and store, and easily folded when not in use. Since it can be stored in an appropriate place, the required space in the store or room is not always taken.
[0024]
In addition, according to the present invention, in the above-described foldable hanger rack, a large number of hanger suspension members are supported across the two horizontal frames. A clothes hanger can be hung on the suspension member.
[0025]
Furthermore, when the hanger suspension member has a spherical head, it corresponds to the movement of the hanger suspension member hook when the clothes hanger is hooked on the hanger suspension member hook or the hanger is removed. Since the spherical head integrated with this is appropriately rotated on the adjacent horizontal frame, the hanger and the like can be smoothly attached and detached. Also, even when the hanger suspension member supported across two adjacent horizontal frames is moved in the length direction of the horizontal frame, the spherical head can be grasped by hand, so the hanger suspension member It can be moved easily.
