Abstract

PURPOSE:To eliminate the labor for assembling a hanger rack, and to fold a hunger rack for housing after using it by connecting three rectangular frame bodies in series so as to be freely turned. CONSTITUTION:A frame body A is formed of frames a1-a6, and the frame a1, the frame a5 or the frame a6 work as a supporting bar for locking a hanger bar, and the frames a5, a6 work as a reinforcement. Frame bodies A, B, C are connected by hinges h1, h2, h3, h4 freely to be turned. A framework for rack, which is formed by connecting the frame body A and the frame body C to the frame body B through the hinges h1-h4 freely to be turned, is used. When this framework for rack is not used, the frame body A and the frame body C are turned for folding around the frame body B so as to downsize the whole. Assembling of a rack can be quickly performed by one person by using a framework for rack. When the framework for rack is not used as a rack, since it can be easily housed in the flat condition, workability is improved and the housing space is reduced.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a folding hanger rack and a frame used therefor.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, apparel products tend to be sewn in Southeast Asia, where labor costs are low. When shipping these sewn products to Japan, they are packed in boxes, taken out in Japan, ironed, and then lined up in stores. The procedure was taken,
In order to streamline the labor cost and work process, it is becoming popular to sew sewn products in a container while they are hung on a hanger rack, transport them, take them out in Japan and place them in stores immediately. In this case, in the conventional hanger rack, each of the frame bodies was assembled with bolts and nuts, but the workability was poor and it took a considerable amount of time. That is, in the container, the hanger bar is fixed to the frame body by using two bolts and nuts, while two workers respectively support the frame body that faces the frame body and the frame body that is the side surface among the three frame bodies. It required work and required a lot of manpower and a lot of work time.

[0003]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The object of the present invention is to assemble a hanger rack without the need for manpower, and to fold and store it when not in use.
A novel folding hanger rack that can be stored and a framework for the same are provided.

Means for Solving the Problems The first aspect of the present invention is (1)
Three rectangular frames A, B, C and (2) a hinge in which the rectangular frames A, B, C are connected in series and rotatably,
The present invention relates to a foldable rack frame composed of and.

The second aspect of the present invention is (a) (1) three rectangular frame bodies A, B and C, and (2) the rectangular frame bodies A, B and C.
A foldable rack framework composed of a hinge connected in series and rotatably, and (b) when the rack framework is opened in a U-shape, the foldable rack framework is parallel to the rectangular frame B. At least one hanger bar that can be bridged between the rectangular frame A and the rectangular frame C;
(C) A fixing member for fixing the hanger bar to the rectangular frame body A and the rectangular frame body C, and (D) A member for preventing the hanger with the sewn product attached from coming off the hanger bar. The present invention relates to a foldable hanger rack comprising a stop member.

The basic structure of the folding type hanger rack of the present invention is a foldable rack in which a frame body A and a frame body C for supporting a hanger bar for hanging a hanger are rotatably connected to a frame body B via a hinge. The point is to use a framework. When not in use, the frame body B is used as the center with the frame body A, and the frame body C is rotated and folded to form a compact shape. As a measure against rain leakage when using an aged container, it is preferable to install a synthetic resin sheet in the container and wrap the entire hanger rack.

The frame is made of aluminum, stainless steel,
It is a rectangular shape made of metal such as iron, plastics, or wood, and may be a plate-shaped body, but from the viewpoint of weight reduction, it is preferable to have a structure with only a rectangular frame portion. ) May be passed. In addition, a hanger bar can be provided by using the crosspiece.

The hinge connects the adjacent frame bodies to each other so that the frame bodies can rotate at at least two places, and the frame bodies A and B are connected to each other.
And the frame body C are connected, and the frame bodies A, B,
It works so that C can be folded into a flat state and used as a rack framework that can stand alone in a U-shape.

Although one rack frame may be provided for each rack frame, one hanger bar may be provided in the upper stage, or one hanger bar may be provided in each of the upper, middle, and lower stages.
It is also possible to enlarge the rack framework and attach a plurality of hanger bars to the upper stage, the upper stage, the middle stage, or the lower stage. In this case, when the hanger bars are provided in the middle stage, the number of the hanger bars in the middle stage may be the same as the number of the hanger bars in the upper stage, or may be different.

When the hanger rack of the present invention is dedicated to be put in a container, one large rack framework can be used according to the size of the container, but a plurality of rack frameworks are used. It can also be stored sequentially in the container.

An example of the procedure for assembling in the container is as follows. If necessary, first install the synthetic resin seat cover in the container. Then, the rack body that is folded and stored [see (a) and (b) of FIG. 1] is rotated about the frame B to form an open trihedron (see FIGS. 3 and 4). The trihedron is set in a synthetic resin sheet cover inside the container. In the case of the present invention, since the rack frame has an integrated trihedral structure, it is not necessary for an operator to support it. The hanger bar is fixed to the upper stage, or to the middle stage and the lower stage as required using arbitrary fixing members such as bolts and nuts (see FIG. 5), and sewn products such as predetermined clothes are stored on the hanger. If all the hanger bars are initially set, the workability when storing sewn products such as clothes will deteriorate. Therefore, it is preferable to have a structure in which the hanger bars can be sequentially set from the inner position. When the fixing means shown in FIG. 7, which will be described later, is used, it can also be used as the fixing means for the pressing plate of the hanger in the next step. When the clothes are hung on a row of hangers and the hangers have been stored, fix the hangers with a locking member such as a retainer plate to prevent the hangers from falling off due to vibration during transportation (see Figure 7). . Repeat this work according to the number of hangers,
When the hangers are attached to all the hanger bars and the hangers are locked, one unit has been set. When setting a plurality of units in the container, when the storage for one unit is completed, the next unit is set and the same operation is repeated. The units may be connected with simple connecting metal fittings, but the units themselves cannot move freely in the limited space inside the container, and therefore it is not necessary to actively connect them. After locking the hanger on which the sewn product such as clothes is hung on the last unit, the entrance of the synthetic resin sheet is closed, and then the door of the container is closed to complete a series of operations.

The present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a top view showing a state in which the foldable rack framework of the present invention is stored and stored, (a)
Is a state diagram when linearly formed, and (b) is a state diagram when folded.

In FIG. 5, the hanger bar fixing means is not shown.

The means for fixing the hanger bar to the frame is arbitrary and has no limitation. Although it may be attached by bolts or nuts, a bar-shaped projection 13 having a pin insertion hole 14 is provided on the frame 11 as shown in FIG. 6, and a hanger bar 12 having a hole to be fitted into the bar-shaped projection 13 is engaged. Then, the hanger 21 on which the sewn product is hung is suspended, and after being pressed by the hanger pressing plate 15 having a hole that fits into the rod-shaped projection 13, a pin is inserted into the pin insertion hole 14 and fixed. Work efficiency is improved.

The engagement relationship between the hanger bar 12, the hanger 21, and the hanger pressing plate 15 can be set as shown in FIG. 7, for example.

The hinge in the embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG.
What was formed as shown in (a)-(c) was used. As shown in FIG. 8A, the lower collars 16 and 16 were inserted into the two opposing frames 11 and 11, and the ends were welded to form the welded portion 19. Then, FIG. 8 (b)
