Display-Forms, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to display forms. It relates more particularly to display forms of the type commonly known as coat hangers.
One of the objects of the invention is to produce coat hangers which shall be cheap to manufacture, which shall possess permanent lasting qualities and shall not be likely to need repair. Another object is to produce a coat hanger which may be folded or collapsed into small compass so as to render the same convenient for shipping or transportation. Another object is to produce a coat hanger which shall occupy very little space when folded, and to provide means to retain the same in its folded position. Another object is to produce a coat hanger which shall be made in such a manner that advertising matter or other infor-.
mation can be readily displayed thereon. Another object is to produce a coat hanger that canbe quickly and safely locked inits normal or extended position without danger of its being inadvertently collapsedat inopportune moments. Other objects and features of the invention will be obvious as the description proceeds.
The invention will be readily understood from the description in connection with the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 represents the device in its nor mal or extended position, r
Fig. 2 is a side View ofthe device in its folded position,
Fig. 3 is a view similar to Fig. 2, showing the opposite side of the device, v Fig. 1 is a view showing one of the details, and l Fig. 5 is a section taken along the line 55 of Fig. 1.
In the drawings, reference characters 1,
and 2 represent two similar members, prefand each provided at its upper end with a hole 8. A hook 4 has its lower end bent at right angles and projects through the Specif cation of Letters Patent; 7 -Pgttentedi Afig, .31. 192p;
7 holes3 with its end as shown at 5,55
thereby providing apivotfor the members 1 'and2, The" members 1 and 2 have their 7 upper edge's'bent atan angle to. the main body portion of 'theflmeimbers ,for' short distance from'their lower ends as shown at 6 and 7. The bent portions 6 and 7 extendfrom the lower corners of the members 1 and 2'tothe points 8 and 9, a short distance from the end, for the purpose of providing I flat surfaces for. sustaining the weight of the garments that are hung thereupoinand' also to provide a somewhat angular or curved outline for the members 1 and 2 so as to make the same fit into the shoul ders, for example, of coats that may be V hung upon the same.
Thin strips of metal 1O and 11, preferably of sheet steel, are pivoted at the points 7 12 and 13 to the members 1 and 2, and are pivoted to each other at their other ends, as hown'at 14. The member 10 is provided at its'outer end with alipx16 which projects into the path of the member ll. The memberfll is provided with a notch'15 along its upper edge in' which the lip 16 rests when the members are in their alined or extended position. The parts may be so arranged that the pivot 14 is on' a line with or slightly below the pivots l2 and 13, when the devicelis in-its extended position. In 85, order to prevent the-device from collapsing accidentally, locking means for the mem bers 10 and 11 are provided, As shown in the drawings, this lockin means consists of a bead or projection 1?, which may be made by slightly indenting the member 10 as shown in Fig. 5, and a' depression or hole 18: in the member 11 into which hole or depression theprojection; 17 snaps when the device is extended into its normal position. A
.The hookl is made of springy metal so that when'the device'is collapsed as shownin Figs. 2 and 3, the bent portion of the hook may be passed around the opposite side .of the device from its main body porpivot 14, the device will be collapsed and can be retained in its collapsed position by turning the hook 4 as indicated in Fig. 2.
By making the device of thin fiat strips, it is obvious that it will occupy an exceedingly small space when collapsed. In fact, it may be slipped intothe pocket and carried without discomfort, as the greatest dimension in a direction perpendicular to the sheet in Fig. 1 is the bent-over portion 6, as shown in Fig. 4, which may be only a fraction of an inch. ,Also by using fiat strips, advertising matter or other information may be stamped or printed or otherwise attached to the device. The members 10 and 11 with the lip 16 and the locking of hinged members each consisting of a fiat V strip of metal having its edge bent at an angle to the main body portion at one end thereof, a second pair of members made of fiat strips of metal hinged to each other and to said first pair, locking means for retaining said second pair in'alined position and a hook adapted to support said device in the open position and to retain it in its closed position.
In testimony whereof-I aflix my signature; 7
