HAT HANGER.
Application flledl January 4,192@V Serial No.`610,629.
' My invention relates to, improvements in hat hangers and has particular reference to a hat hanger that may be collapsed so as to be capable of being transported from place to place, in the pocket of the user.
` An importantjobject of ymy invention is to provide a hat hanger, that may be used in theatres, churches, or in fact any place where large gatherings are located, and
where there are not sufficient coat racks.
VAnother important object of my invention is to provide al hat hanger, which may be mounted upon the back of a chair, and which will not interfere with the user of the chair, but which will be especially easy to vput in place and to fold up when it has per-Y formed its use.
Another import-ant object of my invention yis to provide a hat hanger, that is exceptionally strong, durable, very simple in construct-ion, inexpensive, and well adapted to the use for which itis designed.
@ther objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent during the course of the following description.
lfn the drawings, wherein like numerals are employed to designate like parts through the same, l
Figure 1 is a perspective view illustrating my invention in use,
Figure 2 is a perspective view 'illustrating my invention in a folded closed position,
Figure 3 is a front elevation of the device in a closed position,
Figure 4 is a section `taken substantially on the line 4-4 of Figure 1r and looking in the direction of the arrow, and
Figure 5 is a rear elevation illustrating the device in a closed or inoperative position.
ln the drawings, wherein for the purpose of illustration is shown the preferred embodiment of my invention, the numeral 6 designates the body of my hanger, and is formed from preferably two elongated parallel spaced sides, being separated by means of a transverse webbing located between the sides and made integral there-l with, said webbing being located preferably intermediate the longitudinal. edges of the sides, so that the body is substantially I- shaped in' cross section. The webbing extends froml one end of the side` of the body, approximately two-thirds of the length thereof, and terminates about one-third of the length of the side from the opposite end thereof.
A rod or arm 7 which isslightly longer than the body 6, isA pivotally connected between the sides of the body directly below the terminal end of the webbing, by means of a pintleS mounted transversely of and between the sides of the body 6, and preferably Y near one of the longitudinal edges thereof. The lower end of the rod or arm. j7` is provided with a padded foot 9 for purposes that will hereinafter be set forth.
Pivotallyconnected slightly above the cenlter of thebodypor'tion near the same longitudinal edge as the pivotal connection of the arm 7, is a pivotally Iconnected link 10 which is provided near its other end with an f elongated slot 11. The link l0 is pivotally connected by means of the pintle and whereas the arm 7 is adapted to be adjacent vone of the sides of thebody 6, the link 10 is adapted to'lie adjacent the opposite side thereof. A pin 13 which" is carried bythe arm 7 is adapted to be slidably engageable with the longitudinal slot 11.
A supporting arm 14 is pivotally mounted between the sides of thebody by means of a shaft 15 knear the upper 'end of the body 6,
` which is clearly illustrated in thedrawings.
The supporting arm 14 terminates in the Y angular extension 15, and is provided on its inner face with a suitable padding 16. The
arm 14 when in an inoperative position is adapted to be shut down so as to be seated between the sides of the body 6, whereby the angular extension 15 will abut the webbing located between the sides of the body. In a like manner, the arm 7 and the link 10 are adapted to be seated when in an inoperative kposition between the sides of the body 6 on the opposite side of the webbing between said arms.
In use, when in an inoperative position the hat hanger is folded as illustrated in Figure 2 of the drawings, and may be carried upon the person of the user, in any pocket, and as this device may be constructed of very light material, itwill not unnecessarily inconvenience the carrying thereof. When it is de sired to use the hat hanger, the supporting arm 14 is swung upwardly whereby the anguiar extension 15 which is padded, is adapted to engage the back of a seat or the like 17. The arm Z is pulled downwardlywhereby the pin 13 will slide in the elongated slot 1.1 to its other extremity thereof, whereby the padded end 9 will engage the back of the seat or the like 17, as shown in Figures 1 and 4L of the drawings. The padded foot 9 and the link 10 willact as a support for the arm 7 A hat 18 may then be supported on the upper end of the arm 7, and as the arm 7 is disposed at an angle, it will-bef impossible for the hat 18 to become disengaged therefrom. When the hat hanger hasserved its purpose, the l1 at may be removed and the hat hanger is then removed from the back of the seat 17,- folded up and placed in the pocket of the user. y
It will thus be seen, that I have devised a Vvery simple, yet efficient form ofhathan Ver that is capable of being folded into an inoperative position, in such a manner that it may easily be carried from place topp-lace, and at the same time which may be easily placed in an operative position aiiording excellent means whereby a hat or the 'like may be hung out of danger of being stepped upon or otherwise crushed.
It is toy be understood that the' form of. my invention herewith' shown and described is to be taken as the preferred embodiment of the same, and that various changes in the rand means to hold the garment supporting armv at the desired angle.
2. A hat hanger of the class described comprising an elongated body portion substantially I-shaped in cross sect-ion, an arm slightly longer than said body portion pivotally connected near one end thereof, and a link pivotally connected to said body portion and adapted to hold said arm at the desii-ed angle. f
A hat (hanger of the class described comprising an elongated body portion sub- -stantially I-shaped in cross section, an arm slightly longer than said body portion pivotallyconnected near one longitudinal edge of said body portion, near one end thereof, a link pivotally connected near the opposite end of said body7 portion and slidably engageable with said arm, and means to support said body portion.
Ll. A hat hanger of the class described comprising anelongated body portion substantially I-shaped in cross section, a supportingl arm pivotally connected near one longitudinal edge and near the top of said body portion, an elongated arm slightly longer than said body portion pivotally connected near the opposite end of said body portion and adjacent the opposite longitudinal edge thereof, the lower terminal of said pivoted arm being provided with a foot, a link ,being provided with an elongated slot, pivotally connected near the opposite end of the elongated body, and a pin carried by said arm adapted to be received within said elongated slot.
In testimony whereof I aix my signature' in presence of two witnesses.
. WILLIAM ALEX WALLACE.
