RICHARD J.'SLOMA1\T, OF DAYTON. OHIO.
GARMENT-HANGER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Ami-.18, 1916.
Application filed October 22, 1914. Serial No. 868,146.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, RICHARD J. SLoMAN, citizen of the United States, residing at Dayton, in the county of Montgomery and State of Ohio, have;invented certain new and useful Improvements in Garment-Hangers, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to a garment hanger and is particularly adapted for supportlng ladies wraps and hats.
It relates more especially to a form of hanger or support to be attached to the rear of seats in theaters, auditoriums, or other places of public meetings but which may also be attached to the walls or other supports in. cloak rooms or used in' the home.
The object of the invention is to simplify the structure asv well as the means and mode of operation of such devices whereby they will not only be cheapened in construction, but will be more efficient in use, and will securely hold the garment and hat or other article, be easily operated and unlikely to get out of repair.
Theater or auditorium seats are usually inclined rearward to a marked degree. The device forming the subject matter hereof is designed to hold the garment close to the inclined back of the seat where it will be confined as closely as possible to a space defined by a perpendicular line dropped from the top of the seat back. In addition to providing means for holding the coat or wrap securely in compact form, the device provides means for securing a ladys hat.
With the above primary and other incidental objects in View, as will more fully appear in the specification, the invention consists of the features of construction, the parts and combinations thereof, and the mode of operation, or their equivalents, as
hereinafter described and set forth in the claims.
Referring to the drawings, Figure l is a of the garment supporting member. Fig. 6 is a detail View. of the covered wire from which the deviceis formed.
I Like parts are indicated by similar characters of reference throughout the several.
views.
In the drawings, 1 is the back of the seat to which the garment support forming the subject matter hereof is secured. As indicated in the drawings, such seats are usually inclined rearward and are commonly formed arcuate or convex. The garment support or holder comprises a single length of spring wire of suitable diameter bent into a triangular loop 2, as shown in Fig. 3, the ends of which are extended in parallel relation, as indicated at 3, and thence extended at right angles in reverse bends or bights 4. Theextreme ends of the length of wire terminate in parallel relation with the portion. 3, as indicated at 5 There are thus formed at the apex of the triangular loop 2 two parallel eyes or bights l 4 spaced one from the other and projecting perpendicular to the general plane of the primary loop 2. The
base of the loop 2 is preferably flexed laterally into an arcuate formation conforming to the contour of the back of the seat 1. The holder or hanger comprising the loop 2 and integral eyes 4 is secured to the seat back 1 by means of a clamping plate 6 having therein slotted perforations 7 through which the eyes or bights 4 4l project and in alinement therewith grooved bosses 8 through which the portions 38 of the member extend from beneath the plate. The plate is secured to the seat back 1 by means of screws introduced through the holes 9-9.
The construction is such that when secured to the seat the primary loop 2 will bear closelyfupon the back of the seat. From this position it may be pulled outward against the tension of the spring wire to permit the garment or wrap to be introduced between the loop 2 and the back of the seat. Upon being released the loop will tend to return to normal position and will press the garment or wrap introduced between the loop and the seat tightly into contact with gthe back of the seat. This will tend to economize space between rows of seats by confining the wraps to a position beneath the overhang of the seat. This will be readily seen by reference to Fig. 2 in which the line wm is a perpendicular line intersecting the top rear e dge of a seat. The tendency will be to confine the wrap to a position inter mediate the line :rw and the back of the seat and thus interfere as little as possible ted opening 7 of the plate 6 enable a ladys hat to be'conveniently secured by means of a hat pin, as indicated at l0, thrust through the eyes or bights. It will be understood that the hat is pinned in the usual manner, a z. 6., the pin is passed through some portion 'of the hat, then thrust through the eyes or bights, and again through the hat. The double eyes arranged in spaced relation enable the hat to be secured in a predetermined position, 2'. 6., they prevent the hat from swinging or oscillating about its point of attachment. I
The clamping plate 6 is preferably, though not necessarily, recessed as shown at 11' in Fig. 5. The supporting loop 2 and eyes 4 may be of bare'wire polished or finished in any suitable manner but are preferably covered with a textile or'fabric covering 12 (Fig. 6) which will improve their 1 appearance and protect the garments.
' From the above description it will be apparent that there is thus provided a device of the character described, possessing the particular features of advantage before enumerated as desirable but which obviously issusceptible of modification in its form, proportion, detail construction, or arrangement of parts, without departing, from the principle involved or sacrificing any of its advantages.
Whilein order to comply with the statute the invention has been described in language more or less specific as to certain structural features, it 1sto be understood thatthe 1nvention is not limited to any specific details but that the means and construction herein described comprise but one mode of putting the lnvention into effect, and the invention is therefore claimed broadly in any ofits possible forms or modifications within the scope of the appended claims. 7
Having thus described my invention, I claim: 7 1 V 1. A garment hanger comprising a substantially triangular loop of spring Wire, two eyes at the apex of the triangular loop projecting substantially perpendicular to the plane thereof and a perforated attaching plate through the perforations of which the said eyes project, said plate being adapted to be secured to a suitable support.
2'. The combination with a seat back of a unitary structure attached thereto formed of a single piece of wire bent toform two parallel eyes projecting therefrom in parallel relation and spaced one from the other. and a perforated" attachment plate throughthe perforations of which the eyes project, said eyes being adaptedto receive a pin thrust therethrough- I to support a hat or other article.
3. In a garment support the combination with a seat back of a length of flexible spring wire bent into a looped formation and flexed into parallel relation with the seat back, adapted to hold a garment in close proximity to the seat back, a perforated platesecured to the seat back beneath which the opposite ends of the wire are clamped, said plate having perforations therein through which the portions of the wire adjacent to ends are projectedoutwardly and thence returned thus forming reverse bends extending substantially, perpendicular to the plate adapted to receive a hat pin to support a hat or other article, substantially as specified.
In testimony whereof I hereunto set my hand this 17 day of October, 1914.
