GARMENT-HANGER SUPPOLR'IbFOIt WARDROBE TBUNKS.
Application filed January 18, 1924. Serial No. 687,055
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, VVADE H. HARRISON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Petersburg, in the county of Dinwiddie and State of Virginia, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Garment-Hanger Supports for lVardrobe Trunks, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to an improvement in garment hanger supports for wardrobe trunks, and has for its primary object the provision of a single bar member adapted for detachable positioning within the wardrobe trunk whereby the entire number of articles of clothing supported by said bar may be removed from the trunk and positioned within a closet whenever the same becomes necessary.
An additional object of the invention resides in the provision of such a supporting means wherein the same may be extended outwardly of the trunk after the same has been opened, for thereby allowing the garments within the trunk to be moved to a position outwardly of the trunk so that the same may be readily viewed and removed as desired.
With the foregoing and other objects in view as the nature of the invention will be better understood, the same comprises the novel form, combination and arrangement of parts hereinafter more fully described, shown in the accompanying drawing and claimed.
In the drawing wherein like reference characters indicate corresponding parts throughout both of the views,
Figure 1 is a top plan view of a wardrobe trunk with its cover removed equipped with a garment hanger supporting mechanism constructed in accordance with the present invention, and
Figure 2 is a fragmentary detail trans verse sectional view taken substantially upOn the line 22 of Figure l, and looking in the direction to the right of this figure.
Now having particular reference to the drawing wherein there is shown the application of my improved garment hanger support for wardrobe trunks of the type including a casing 5, wherein the front wall 6 thereof is hinged as at 7 to one of the end walls of the casing, and wherein the upper end of this casing is open and adapted to be closed by a hinged lid 8.
Itiveted or otherwise suitably secured to the inner side of the rear wall of the casing 5 and atthe upper open'edge thereof is a horizontal reinforcing strap 9 the opposite ends of which are formed with forwardly extending portions 10--10 that are also riveted or otherwise suitably secured to the end walls of said casing 5 in a manner as clearly shown in Figure 1.
Intermediate the ends of the strap 9 is a plate receiving bracket 11 within which is to be positioned the lower reduced end 12 of a sheet metal plate 13 that is of such a length as to be engaged at its upper end with the interior of the lid 8 of the trunk when said lid is moved to its closed position as shown in Figure 2.
Secured at one end to this plate 13 is a forwardly extending garment hanger supporting bar section 141 to which is pivotally secured at its outer end as at 15, a co-operating garment hanger supporting bar section 16 it'being noted that the pivotal connection between these two bar sections is such as to allow the outermost section 16 to be swung laterally inwardly as shown in both of the views for allowing the front hinged wall 6 of the trunk casing tobe swung to a closed position upon its hinge connection.
The outer end of the bar section 16 carries a suitable latch'mechanism 17 for cooperation with the adjacent end wall of the trunk casing 5 for obviously preventing the outward swinging movementof the bar section 16 with respect to the section 14. until this operation becomes desired. It will of course be noted that when the front wall 6 of the trunk casing?) is swung to an open position, the bar 16 may be swung outwardly of the trunk for allowing the'garment hangers 18 to be moved outwardly of the trunk casing onto the projecting bar section 16 for thereby allowing ready access to and removal of the desired garments upon their hangers.
The hangers employed in conjunction with the present form of supporting mechanism includes the usual. hooked member 19, in this instance the upper end thereof being provided with a cross strip 20 to be engaged by the interior of the hinged lid 8 of the trunk casing, for obviously preventing any swinging movement of the hanger upon the bar let during shipment of the trunk.
Numerous advantages of a garment hanger sup 'iorting mechanism for wardrobe trunks of the present type will be obvious Having thus described my invention 10 what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is In combination with a body having a lid hingedly connected thereto, of a garment hanger structure supported in the body adjacent the lid, and a hanger detachably engaged with the hanger structure and carrying at its upper end a strip adapted to engage the under surface of the top wall of the lid when said lid is in a closed position over the body for preventing movement of 20 the hanger on the hanger structure.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature.
IVADE H. HARRISON.
