ammwtoz George E M CZume QMMMQQ witness as PAT GEORGE E. MCCLURE, OF DETROIT, MICHIGAN.
COAT-HANGER.
Specification of Letters Patent. Patgnted Deal), 1919 Application filed May 9, 1919 Serial I\ To. 295,872.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE E. MCCLURE, a citizen of United States, residing at Detroit, in the county of lVayne and State of Michigan, have invented new and useful Improvements in Coat-Hangers, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to garment support ing devices, particularly to coat hangers, and has for its object the provision of a coat hanger, the arms of which are adjustable whereby the device may be used for holding coats of widely varying sizes.
An important object is the provision of acoat hanger of this character which is formed of a number of longitudinally adjustable telescopically connected arms engaged within alined loops serving as guides and formed integrally upon the lower end of the supporting hook by means of which the device may be suspended.
An additional object is the provision of a device of this character which will be extremely simple and inexpensive in manufacture, which may be quickly and easily adjusted, which will be highly eflicient in use, durable in service, and a general improvement in the art. 7
With the above and other objects and advantages in view, the invention consists in the details of construction to be hereinafter more fully described and claimed, and illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which Figure l is a side elevation of the device in fully extended position,
Fig. 2 is a plan view thereof, the supporting hook being cut away immediately above the guide loops,
Fig. 3 is a side elevation showing the device contracted to its greatest extent, and
Fig. 4 is a plan view thereof, the supporting hook shank being cut away, as in Fig. 2. Referring more particularly to the drawing, the numeral 10 designates the supporting members of the device, each of which is formed from a single length of wire bent intermediate its ends to form arathcr large loop 11 engageable within the shoulder portion of a coat. The arms 12 of each member 10 are crossed and their extremities are bent to form eyes 13 slidably engaging the associated'arms of the opposite member. By this construction it will be seen that the members 10 are telescopically adjustably connected whereby they may be disposed in fully extended position, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2, or in contracted position. as shown in Figs. 3 and 4c, the eyes 13 on the ends of the arms maintaining the proper connection between the arms regardless of the degree of adjustment. f
The numeral 14 designates a length of wire which is formed at one end with a hook 15 by means of which the entire device may be supported, or rather suspended. At its other end, the length of wire 14 is bent upon itself to provide a guide loop 16 and then rebent to provide a second guide loop 17 spaced from and parallel with'the loop 16, the terminal of the wire 14 being coiled about the shank of the hook 15 adjacent its point of juncture of the loop 16, as shown at 18. Two of the arms of the members 10 are en gaged through the loops 16 and 17 and the other two arms are disposed between the loops 16, and 17, as clearly shown in the drawings. It will therefore be seen that during the adjustment of the members 10, the arms thereof will be properly guided and prevented from distortion or displace ment on account of their engagement either within or between the guide loops 16 and 17 formed upon the lower end of the supporting hook 15.
In the use of the device, it will be seen that the members 10 are adjusted so that thedevice will have the proper length'for supporting en agement within coats of various sizes, an it will also be noted that the device carrying the coat may be suspended in the ordinary manner by means of the hook 15. 7
From the foregoing description and a study of the drawing it will be apparent that I have thus provided an extremely simple and efficient device for supporting coats and which is not only simple and inexpensive in manufacture, but which is ad- 'vantageous in its provision of means for varylng the size of the hanger for supporting coats of widely varying sizes.
lVhile I have shown and described the preferred embodiment of my invention, it is of course to be understood that I reserve the right to make such changes in the form, construction, and arrangement of parts as will not depart from the spirit of the invention or the scope of the subjoined claim.
Having thus described my invention, I claim A device of the character described comprising a pair oi telescopically adjustable members, each formed as a single length of wire bent' intermediate its ends to provide a loop engageable Within the shoulder portion of a garment and to further provide a pair of crossed arms, said members being arranged with the opposite arms disposed in parallel relation and the terminal portions of said arms being bent to provide 10 guide eyes embracing the adjacent arms, and
a supporting hook formed as a single length of wire having its lower end bent to provide a pair of spaced guide loops slidably receiving two of the associated arms at opposite sides of their point of intersection and the other two arms being slidably received between said loops.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.
GEORGE E. MGOLURE.
