I Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Jan. 11, 1921.
Application filed October 23, 1919. Serial No. 332,578.
and useful Improvements in Supports for Garments and other Articles, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to a wire hook for supporting garments or other articles and the object of the invention is to make a wire hook of such shape that it will be adapted to hold a great variety of objects such as letters, hats, pencils and pens, photographs, books, etc.
The device consists of a piece of wire bent or folded in the center to form a loop with the ends of the wire twisted together and forming a point of support. The loop is folded again to form a hook with a front limb and a rear limb. The rear limb is generally of an inverted V-shape from the twisted portion downward to the bend of the hook and the ides of the central portion of the rear and front limbs are bent or curved toward each other until they come approximately into the same vertical plane, the sides of the rear limb being laterally inside of the sides of the front limb.
The sides of the front limb being nearly in line with the sides of the rear limb with the latter inside forms such a hook that when an article like a photograph is slipped into the hook a binding effect is created which holds the article firmly in place.
I illustrate my invention in the accompanying drawings in which,
Figure 1 is a front elevation of my hook and F 2 is a side elevation with the supporting panel shown in section.
Referring to the drawing,
A, represents a heavy wire which forms the hook, the latter being represented as secured to panel B.
To form the hook the wire is bent sub stantially in the center to form a loop A and the ends of the wire are united and twisted together.
One of the ends A is extended beyond the twist and formed into a supporting hook by which the main hook is secured to the panel B.
To form the hook proper the loop is folded again on its center forming a rear limb A and a front limb A The lower portion of the hook is spread apart at A so that the rear limb takes the form of an inverted V- shape extending from the twisted portion downward.
The sides of the front limb extend upward parallel to each other and the upper portion is formed into a wide curve or point.
In side elevation, the central portion of the rear limb is curved outward and the body portion of the front limb is brought inward until the sides of the two limbs are nearly in line with each other and so that any flat object being forced down into the body of the hook and between the two limbs will be subjected to a binding or clamping action.
To accentuate this action the front limb is corrugated but it is to be understood that the corrugation may be formed in the,
front limb of the hook or not, as desired.
The lower end of the hook is formed with a considerable loop or recess A capable of holding a pen or pencil.
The top of the hook being forwardly curved is well adapted to hang a hat or any like article on.
A hook thus formed is capable of being used to suspend a great variety of articles.
It may be secured to the wall or to a panel as shown or to a block or other support to be used on a desk to hold calenders or other like articles.
I claim:
A device for supporting garments and other articles, consisting of a piece of wire bent centrally to form a loop, having the ends twisted together, one of said ends being formed into a supporting hook, the loop being bent or folded centrally back to form a hook with a front limb and a rear limb, the rear limb having generally an inverted V-shape and extending from the twisted portion downward to the bend of the hook, the central portion of the front and rear limbs being curved until they are in substantially the same vertical plane.
