Description
N, M. HANSEN. EXTENSIBLE HAT HANGER- APPLICATION FILED SEPT. 30, I920.
Patented Nov. 23, 1920.
UNITED STATES NIELS M. HANSEN, OF LINCOLN, "NEBRASKA.
EXTENSIBLE HAT-HANGER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
. Patented Nov. 23, 1920.
Application filed September 30, 1920. Serial 'No, 413,672.
To all who 1n it may concern Be it known that I. NIELS M. Hansen, subject of the King of Denmark, residing at Lincoln, in the county of Lancaster and State of Nebraska, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Extensible Hat-Hangers, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in apparel suspension devices, of connected retractile parts, telescopically reducible to smaller size for conveniently carrying in one of the pockets of ones garments, and extensible for instant service at any time and place.
The object of my improvement is to provide a suitable attaching device to releasably engage the rim or vizor of a hat or cap without injury thereto; in combination with an extensible and retractile hook, readily adjustable to temporarily engage almost any stationary, jutting or upstanding object; whereby headgear or any other light objects or garments may be hung up and preserved while temporarily removed from the wearer. This is often desirable in public meetings,
in dining rooms, in railway coaches and at picnics, etc, where provisions are not always ample for caring for such habiliments.
I attain this object and other requirements and conveniences developed by the construction and use of this device through the medium of the structure and mechanism illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1, is a perspective view of the complete hanger extended and adjusted as in application, attached to the rim of a hat, indicated fragmentally by dotted lines; and Fig. 2, is a side elevation showing the hook extension retracted and the attaching clamp closed to reduce the device to the smallest possible dimensions for storage in a pocket or campers kit-bag.
The drawings are made to a scale largerthan the ordinary size of the device, to bring out the correct details of construction; and like reference numerals denote the same parts throughout the views.
A strip of resilient sheet metal has a central portion bent fiatwise to form the curved oblong hook-loop 3.v The outer told of this hook-loop is disposed through the pair of closed rectangular guide loops 4 and 4,
spaced position thereon. Adjacentportions of the strip are disposed flatly upon each other to form the slightly-curved shank of the hook disposed through the sliding, closing and releasing loop 8. The free end portions, projecting beyond the sliding loop, are bent to stand divergently and form the normally opened jaws 6 and 6. These jaws have terminally curved ends to form opposed lips and 7, which are closed upon and releasably engage any inserted object, by sliding the closing loop toward the lips on the jaws.
To adjustably enlarge and increase the capacity of the top hook, for more securely engaging larger stationary objects, a curved retractile extension 9 is disposed through the guide loops r and 4; said loops being of suflicient width to loosely receive the additional thickness of this sliding extension. It is made or" a strip of like material and agrees in width with the strip forming the hook body. Smooth terminal enlargements 10 and 11 are formed by bending inwardly short portions of its ends; these prevent the extension strip from being entirely with drawn from the guide loops and lost, as well as avoiding the scratching of objects engaged or injury to the fingers when manipulating the hanger. The curvature of this retractile extension strip is made slightly smallei thau the curved part of the shank of the hook, so that the inwardly turned inner terminal 11 will bear against the back of the shank of the hook at any position within the range of extensional adjustment. By this means the sliding extension reinforces the strength and stiffness of the curved shank; and the folded terminal 11 bearing against the shank serves as a secondary clip for any article, as a card with the owners name or instructions thereon, which card is readily thrust therebetween or laid against the shank and the terminal slid thereover.
Sliding the slide loop 8 downwardly, closing the jaws 6 and the lips 7 closely together, asshown in Fig. 2 and sliding the hook extension 9 inwardly until the terminal 10 engages the end of the loop 3', folds the device to its smallest possible bulk for carrying in a pocket; in which positionit offers a smooth exterior that will not tear or scratch the interior 01"? a pocket or other container.
I claim: i
1. An extensible hat hanger, comprising a strip bent centrally to form an oblong loop at the point of a hook, adjacent portions dis posed. upon each other to form the shank of said hook, the free end portions disposed divergently to form opposed resilient terminal jaws normally standing open, a sliding loop movable on said shank to close and release said jaws, spaced guide loops having one side seated transversely through said loop at the hook point, and a longitudinallycurved extension strip disposed to slide endwise through said guide loops.
2. An extensible hat hanger, comprising a hook having a shank split at the end to form a pair of opposed resilient jaws normally standing open, a sliding loop on said shank to close and release said jaws, guide loops on the hook, and a curved extension strip disposed to slide through said guide loops to stand extended beyond the point of said hook or to retract thereupon.
An extensible hat hanger, comprising a hook, an engaging clamp on the shank of the hook, guides on the curved part of said hook, and a curved hook-extension strip disposed to slide in said guides.
In testimony whereof I hereunto aifix my signature.
NIELS M. HANSEN.
