Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to an improvement in a clip hanger for hanging pants, skirts, etc. with one end clamped, and particularly to a clip hanger used in cleaning shops, general households, etc.

Conventionally, various types of clip hangers have been developed for the above purpose.
There is a clip hanger described in Japanese Patent No. 914, or a clip hanger described in Utility Model Application No. 1983-90981, which was previously submitted by the applicant.

However, since the former uses a metal spring to apply clamping force to the clamping arm, the structure becomes very complicated and there is a risk that the spring will rust.

In addition, the latter uses a loop made of a flexible material instead of a metal spring to provide clamping force, and compared to the metal spring type clip hanger described above, the structure is simpler and the parts that cause rusting. Although this method is superior in that it does not have a flexible loop, it still needs to be improved in that the flexible loop must be separately molded and assembled.

The present invention was created in consideration of the current situation, and its purpose is to provide a holder that can be molded in one piece from a flexible material such as plastic, including the clamping force imparting means, and that has sufficient suspension force. It is an object of the present invention to provide a clip hanger that can form a main body and a suspension hook.

In the present invention, a clip main body 1 is formed by connecting the upper ends of two clamping arms 2 having a substantially symmetrical shape with a flexible bending piece 3 that can be bent freely and also serves as a line of symmetry. The symmetrical relationship between the two clamping arms 2 is such that when the clip body 1 is unfolded, the extension line A of the flexible bending piece 3 and the extension line B of the lower end clamping part 4 of each clamping arm 2 form an equal acute angle α, and the clip body When the clip main body 1 is folded, both the clamping arms 2 are set so as to be in a superposed state as a whole, and in the middle of the clamping arms 2, there is a latching means 5 for removably retaining both the clamping arms 2 when the clip body 1 is folded. This clip hanger is provided with 6 hanging hooks that are integrally attached to the upper end of the clip main body 1 and extend parallel to the side surface of the first-side clamping arm 2 and in a direction substantially perpendicular to the lower end clamping part 4 of the first side clamping arm 2. It is something.

In addition, in the above basic configuration, the flexible bending piece 3 and the two clamping arms 2 have the above-mentioned symmetrical relationship because the clip hanger according to the present invention can be easily molded as a single unit from a synthetic resin material.
It is also possible to form a suspension hook 6 having a sufficient size.
(Pants, etc. have a considerable weight, so the suspension hook 6 must be able to withstand that weight.) Furthermore, by aligning the hook when folded in the same direction as the suspension direction of the suspension pants C, the hook can be This is so that it can be easily and reliably hung on a hanger rod (not shown).

Next, we will explain the first preferred embodiment of each of the above components.
This will be described with reference to FIGS.

First, the clip body 1 is formed by connecting the upper ends of the two clamping arms 2 with the flexible bending piece 3 as described above, but the flexible bending piece 3 allows the clamping arm 2 to be easily expanded. It is preferable to make the wall as thin as possible within the strength limit.

On the other hand, the shape of the clamping arm 2 is such that at least the lower end clamping part 4 has a width that allows a sufficient clamping area.

In addition, as is clear from FIGS. 1 and 2, the clamping arm 2 can be provided with a horizontal shoulder 7 at the upper part of the first clamping arm 2, and this shoulder T allows for sufficient suspension support to be inserted between the clamping arms 2. A space D can be formed.

The latching means 5 is provided with a latching through hole 8 in the middle of the first side clamping arm 2, extends into the inside of the clip body 1 in the middle of the other side latching arm 2, and has a peripheral latching portion 9 of the latching through hole 8. It is constructed by providing an engaging hook piece 10 that engages.

Further, the lower end clamping parts 4 of both clamping arms 2 are both bent inward to form an L-shaped clamping piece, and the L-shaped clamping piece of the first clamping arm 2 is designed to facilitate insertion of the other side L-shaped clamping piece. It is forked.

Further, the clamping end of the L-shaped clamping piece can be serrated.

Next, a method of using the clip hanger having the above configuration will be described.

First, hold the clip hanger, which is usually in the open state as shown in Figure 1, with one hand while lightly grasping both supporting arms 2, and insert the upper end of pants, etc. Insert into D.

After that, by pressing the side surface of the first-side clamping arm 2 having the through-hole 8 for hanging and rotating the same arm toward the other-side clamping arm 2, the L-shaped clamping piece elastically presses and holds the upper end of the pants D. At the same time, the hooking piece 10 also passes through the hooking hole 8 and elastically engages with the peripheral hooking part 9, so that the above-mentioned L
Maintains the clamping of pants, etc. by the mold clamping pieces.

As described above, the clip hanger according to the present invention has the following effects.

(1) The clip body, hook, and hanging means can be integrally molded from synthetic resin material and have a shape that can be made in large numbers, making it cheaper than conventional clip hangers. Can be manufactured.

(2) The latching means can reliably and easily latching both clamping arms by simply pressing the first clamping arm after inserting the pants, etc., making the work of holding the pants very simple.

(3) The clip hanger of the present invention is used to hang heavy items such as pants and skirts, and by making the two clamping arms have a special symmetrical relationship, the hook can be made sufficiently large, and Since the hook position is the same as the hanging direction of the pants, attachment to the hanger bar is easy.

(4) Since the first side clamping arm has a horizontal shoulder at the upper part, it is possible to form a sufficient space for inserting pants, etc. between the two clamping arms.

3 and 4 are side views of the same, and FIG. 5 is a developed view of the same.
