' Application filed February 24, 1920. Serial No. 360,689.
i for supporting a jacket and trousers aid other garments, if desired.
The nature and advantages of the invention will be better understood when the fol-v lowing detail description is taken inconnection with the accompanying drawings, the invention residing in the combination and arrangement of parts as claimed.-
In the drawings forming part of this.
specilication like numerals of reference indicate .similar parts in the several views and wherein :-I
Figure 1 is a sectional side elevation of one form of my improved hanger which is shown as being adapted more particularly .for supporting a coat or waist and skirt.
Fig. 2 is a sectional side elevation of a modied form of device more particularly adapted for supporting a coat and trousers or other garment. y n
Fig. 3 is a sectional end view on line 3-3 vot Fig. 1.
Fig. 4 is a sectional end view on line 4 4 of Fig. 2. i
Fig. 5 is a perspective view of one of the garment-engaging members which is adapted. to be slidably-mounted within the tubular bar.
With reference to the drawings, 10 designates the bar-member of my improved hanger, which is constructed of a tube, the
same being out to the vdesired length and bent on an arc of a circle so as to receive and properly support the shoulder` portions of a coat or waist. The inner-or unl der side of this tube is slotted as at 11.
vMounted within and'at each end of this tubular bar is a garment-engaging member which is formed with a body portion` 12 of wire. l At the opposite ends 13 and 14 of this body portion the. wire is bent into a coil form, the wire from coil 14 extending out vstruction and elfective in its operation and through the slot 11 and downwardly forming a garment-engaging arm 15, while the wire from coil 13 also extends outwardly through the slot 14 but is curved to form a handle or operating member 16 adapted to 60 be engaged by the hand of the user for the purpose of drawing these members which are mounted in opposite ends of the tube toward each other against the tension of the compressionsprings 17, which spring is also mounted within the tube 10,/its ends engaging the coils 13 of the said opposite garment-engaging members.
In order to provide simple and effective means for supporting this garment holder, I have provided a wire hook 19, the body portlon of which extends through the tube and may be secured therein by a pin 20 or otherwise; the lower end of this hook bodymay also extend through the tube and be 80 provided with a second or lower hook 21 which may also be employed for supporting other wearing apparel.
In some instances, as illustrated in Fig. 2, I may omit the skirt-supporting arms 15 and attach clasps 22 to the operating arms 16 if desired, to facilitate the engagement of these arms with garments.
These'arms 15 also may be bent or curved slightly as at 23 to also serve as handles for 90 positioning the clasps to engage the garment.
My improved garment hanger is, very simple, practical and inexpensive in conby its use a number of garments may| be supported and held in desired position', and by its constructionthe hanger is rendered very strong and durable and light in weight.
`The foregoing description is directed solely toward the construction illustrated,
'but Idesire it vto be understood that I reserve the privilege of restoring` to all the mechanical changes to which the device is susceptible, the invention being defined and limited only by the terms of the appended claims.
I claim:
1. A garment hanger comprisingl a tubul'ar bar curved'to receive and support the 110 shoulder portions of a garment, said tube being slotted on its under side for a portion of its length on each side of its center, gar.
shoulder portions of a garment and slotted on its under side, a member slidably mounted in each end of said tube and provided with a garment-engaging arm at one end extending out through its adjacent slot, saidl members being each also provided with a finger grip operating portion at its oppo- .site ends also extending through said slots,
and a spring in said tube for pressing said members apart.
Y 3. A garment hanger comprising a tubular bar curved to receive and support the shoulder portions of a garment and slotted on its under side, stop members at the ends of saidytube, a lmember slidably mounted in each end of said tube, a spring in said tube for normally pressing each of said members outwardly against its stop, an arm on each of said members extending through its slot to engage a garment between them, said arms being adapted to be moved to compress said spring upon being positioned to engage a garment, and means on said bar by which the whole may be supported.
In testimony whereof I aix my Signature.
ANDREW A. MCCAFFREY.
