COMBINATION CLOTHES HANGER AND BRUSH.
Specification of'Letters Patent.
Patented (Dot. 4, rear.
' Application filed January 29, 1920. Serial No. 354,910.
To allwhom z'tmay concern. I
Be it known that I, JOHN GQLDBERG, a citizen of the United States, residing at Washington, in the District of Columbia, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Combination Clothes Hang ers and Brushes, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in combination clothes hangers and brushes and has for an object to provide a device of this type having the advantage over the previous art of simplicity and cheapnessin manufacture, adapted to use by the uninitiated without detailed instruction, and capable of use either as a clothes hanger or brush without adjustment. 1
Another object of the invention is to provide a device of the above type constructed of simple elements so cooperatively combined' and related as to perform all the required functions with a minimum number of parts. This object of the invention is obtained by means of a novel cooperative combination and arrangement of certain standard elemental forms in a manner to perform in addition to their usual functions other useful functions resulting from the combination.
Another object is to provide a combined clothes hanger and brush in which the brush is so arranged and proportioned in relation to the other parts as to act as a friction pad to prevent articles of clothing from slipping from the hanger.
Other objects of my invention will be apparent from a perusal of the following specification and the drawings accompanying the same.
A preferred embodiment of my invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings in which:
Figure 1 is a side view.
Fig. 2 is a section on the line 2- 2 of Fig. 1, showing a'folded garment supported upon the cross bar over the brush.
Referring to the drawings in detail, 1 is the coat hanger element having the usual downwardly diverging arms 2 and provided with a prehensible or handle-like extension 3 at the top or juncture of the arms. A horizontal supporting rod or cross bar 4 is secured between the arms 2 a short distance above their lower ends as shown, and connected across the lower ends of the arms 2 is a cylindrical brush 5 of a well known type having a core or base member 6 of heavy twisted wire. The brush is secured to the ends of the arms of the coat hanger element by means of the extended ends of the base member 6 which are bent upwardly and inwardly, the inwardly bent portions being held, preferably by a driving fit, in the longitudinally bored openings 7 as indicated in dotted lines. The base member of the brush, being of comparatively stiff and rigid wire, thus functions as a strut or brace between the ends of the coat hanger arms, forming with the arms a rigid triangular structure which may be readily wielded with the handle-like extension 3.
Secured to the top of the handle-like extension 3 is a suspension hook 8 so proportioned and arranged in relation to said extension as to fit around the edge of the hand as indicated in dotted lines in Fig. 1 and so act as a guard to prevent the device from slipping from ,the hand when used as a brush.
When the device is in use as a clothes hanger, certain garments such as a pair of trousers or a skirt may be hung upon the rod 4 as indicated at 9 in Fig. 2, the brush 5 acting as a friction pad to prevent the garment 9 from slipping off its support 4. Also the brush 5, being of much greater diameter than the rod 4, causes the garment 9 to hang out at a wide angle from the rod thus preventing creasing of the garment.
To use the device as a brush, it is only I necessary to remove the garments therefrom and without any adjustments of the device simply grasp it by the extension 3 and wield it in the same manner as a large whisk broom.
To make the form more suggestive of the method of its use, the handle-like projection 3 may be made more typically handle shaped without interfering with the use of the device as a coat hanger.
While I have herein shown and described a preferred embodiment of my invention it is to be understood that I do not limit myself to such particular embodiment but contemplate all such variants and modifications thereof as fairly fall within the scope of the appended claims.
Having thus described my invention what I claim and desire to secure in Letters Patent is: if
. 1. A combination clothes hanger and brush comprising a coat hanger element having downwardly divergent arms, a handlelike" projection extending upwardly from the center of said coat hanger element, and a brush having a twisted wire core arranged with the wire core connected across the ends of the said arms to form a strut mutually holding and held by the said arms in a manher to form a rigid structure wieldable with said handle-like projection.
2. In a clothes hanger, the combination of a coat hanger element having downwardly divergent arms, a handle-like projection extending upwardly from said coat hanger element, a cylindrical brush having a twisted wire core extending horizontally below the coat hanger element with its wire core connected across the ends of the said arms to form a strut therefor, a clothes supporting bar extending between said arms above the brush, and a suspension hook carried by said handle-like projection arranged to function as a guard to prevent the device from slipping from the hand during use as a brush. In testimony whereof I afiix my signature.
JOHN H. GOLDBERG.
