DRESS HANGER.
Application filedOctobcr 19, 1922. Seria1 No. 595,513.
To all 107mm it may concern:
Be it known that I, EMILY TRUMrLnn, a
, citizen of the United States, residing at- No.
253 Garfield Place, borough of Kings, city, county, and State of New York, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Dress Hangers, of which the following is a specification.
The object of my invention is to provide an inexpensive and convenient device for hanging and packing dresses. and similar garments, that will preserve so far as po sib-le the press and form of the dress and that v will permit of the folding of the garmentabout it for purposes of transportation with a minimum amount of wrinkling or creasing.
Briefly described the invention consists of a cardboard back, or body portion, of suitable length and width, with a curved top and correspondingly curved and forwardly projecting rim, or shoulder, on which the garment rests. The device may have pockets for the storing of wearing'apparel, such as gloves or hosiery intended to be worn with the dress, and may likewise have a cover member designed to fold down over the back member.
Referring more particularly to the accompanying drawing, Fig. 1 is a front elevation of the device showing the construction of the back member, and the front or cover member, folded down, and the means for 'oinin r said two members for sus endin C: b
said device on a hook or nail.
Fig. 2 is a sectional longitudinal view of the device.-
Fig. 3 is an elevation similar to Fig. 1 without the cover or front member.
Referring more particularly to the accompanying drawing, (6 represents the back or body portion of said device, being rectangular in form and of a length preferably of about two feet, with a curved top from which projects forwardly, b, a curved rim or shoulder member, which may be sewed, glued. or otherwise permanently joined to a, and which is designed to support the dress or garment when hung about a, and to pre rent or minimize wrinkling about the shoulders of the garment, when folded for transportation. Two small eyelets, k, are provided in the top of a, through which is inserted a string member, or a hook member may be inserted for the purpose, thus providing a means for suspending said device a hook or na l The ba k member, a,
p but cardboard is may be provided with one or more pockets, c,-to carry items intended for use with the garment and most conveniently kept wlth 1t,
said pockets being made simply by means of sewing, gluing orotherwise suitably attaching an overlaying cardboard member to the body portion a. (Z represents a front or cover member, being rectangular in form, which may also be provided with a pocket, 7", and is likewise provided with two eyelets in the top, through which is passed the string,
9, thus connecting the back and cover members. The function of the cover member is two-fold: It may serve to protect the dress or garment while hung up, and, in packing more than one dress, or garment, it serves to prevent wrinkling and maintains the shape of the garments in transportation. WVhen not in use, the cover member may be turned back, over the top of, and allowed to hang behind, the back or body portion of the device. When it is desired to transport the garments, they are not removed from the hanger, as in the ordinary case, but are fold ed over and upon the body of the hanger,
the shape of the garments being thus pres served and protected, and the cover member is turned forward over the arment. Thus a rigid and easily handled pa kage is formed, which may be conveniently placed in a trunk or suitcase. All parts of the device may be made. of cardboard or any other material that has the like amount of rigidity, preferable because of its inexpensiveness.
It may be observed that the curved rim, or shoulder member, may be either forwardly projecting or backwardly projecting, or both. In either case the same desirable result will be obtained. I
It may likewise be observed that the convertibility of the device greatly increases its value as a time saver and an added. convenience. F or instance, when removing a garment from a trunk or suitcase to a ward robe, it may; simply be done by hanging the device up without any intervening labor, and, vice versa, when desiring to pack a garment for transportation, the intervening work of removing the dress from a hanger and then carefully folding same for packing is dispensed with. After removing the device from the point of suspension, the dress with them while travelling. Invariably people-have to do'this when travelling owing to the failure of hotels to provide these conveniences but this is no longer necessary when the above described device mused;
Having thus described my invention, what I new claim and desire to protect by Letters Patent is as follows: a p i In a garment hanger, a bodyportion on which the garment is supported and co1nprising a substantially rectangular section having acurved upperedge,a rim conform mg to and PlOJQCtlng laterally i rom said curved edge tO PIOVlClGfl garment shoulder receiving member, a rectangular cove-r section of a size and shape approximating that a of the bodypo rtion, and-a flexibleconnector in loop form connected to the upper edge of the cover and passing loosely through openirigs-in the bodyportibn immediately below the rim, the connector being ofa length to permit the cover to be arranged to cooperate with the face or overlie the back of the body portion, said loop serving to draw the cover more or less tightly against the body" portion when the device issuspended by the loop.
This specification signed this 13th. da or ottobeeieea, EMILY TRUMPLER.
