UNITED STATES PATENT.
ROBERT MCCOY, OF NEW. YORK, N. Y.
IMPROVEMENT IN CLOTHES HANGERS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 150,251, dated April 28, 1874; application filed January 5, 1874.
of the holders attached, and Fig. 2 is an end elevation.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
A'represents the jaws or fingers of the springs, which are formed on a bent base, B, so as to project downward when the concave side of the base is secured against the under .side of the frame 0 by a single fasteningscrew, D, said jaws being bent around from the ends of the concave portion so that they meet together below the middle of it, so that by springing the part B upward between the ends which bear on the bar to which the holders are attached the ends of the jaws are pressed together. These ends are extended a.
little beyond their meeting-point, and bent from each other, as shown at .E, to allow the clothes to be hung by them to be forced up between the jaws-readily. The frames'O are made about as wide as a shirt, and the hangera are placed as close together in a row along each bar of the frame as they can be, sothat shirts and other like articlescan be hung up by them close together. The holders are fastened in a groove, H, in the frame, to prevent them from shifting about when fastened by a single screw.
' The special objects are to avoid puncturing the shirts by hooks, and to fasten the shirts up by the shoulders, which-can be done with these holders by merely forcing the shoulders between the jaws of the holders.
The common practice in laundries is to hang the shirts up by the flaps on hooks, which are thrust through them. The hooks are sometimes large and clumsy, and make large holes, and the flaps are sometimes torn and damaged, particularly when the shirts are frequently so hung.
Having thus described my invention, Iclaim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patcut- A springhanger provided 4 with the outwardly-concaved base 3 and outwardly-convexed pieces A A, as set forth, to adapt it to receive a screw, that both regulates the tension of jaws and fastens the hanger to its sup:
port. I ROBERT MoOOY.
