THOMAS M. BUCHANAN, OF WATERLOO, IOWA.
GARMENT HANGER.
Application filed November 27, 1925. Serial No. 71,666.
My invention relates to improvements in garment hangers, and the object of my improvement is to supply a device upon which garments or other articles may be hung, the device being so constructed as, without injury thereto, to clasp and hold the garment as suspended releasably.
This object I have accomplished by the means which are hereinafter described and claimed, and which are illustrated in the annexed drawings, it being understood that minor modifications of the device may be effected without departing from the principle of the invention.
In the drawings, Figs. 1 and 3 are like elevations of my improved garment hanger, Fig. 8 exhibiting it in use to hang and hold a garment. part of the latter being broken away. Fig 2 is a alan of the lower reach of the hanger, the upper parts of which are broken away.
In the simple type of hanger shown, which is suited particularly for hanging such garments as coats, and also trousers or other flexible articles, the hanger is constructed from a single elastic rod shaped by bending into a hollow triangular form, the ends of the rods intertwisted, with one terminal eX tended and shaped into a hook 2 above the twisted portions 3 for the purpose of suspending the hanger on a nail or other support.
The shoulder parts 1 of the loop are oppositely inclined, and the lower medial part of the loop is a horizontal reach 4.
In my device the reach 4., unlike the ordinary straight reach, is shaped by bending at places 5 equidistant from the middle of the reach, reversely to have parts 7 positioned near and approximately parallel with the reach parts I. -The reach is also bent circularly at 8 to provide an intermediate part 6 which spans the break in the reach 4 and is parallel therewith and also near the said parts 7. Preferably the angles of bending at 5 are shaped with a curvature away from the loop on the opposite side of the reach 4;.
In use the shoulder parts 1 of the hanger may be employed in the usual way for introduction into the shoulder portions of coats or the like for hanging them. As shown in Fig. 3 at 9, trousers may be suspended upon the reach and held in place from shifting relatively thereto. The garment is passed through the main loop over and across the reach parts 4, and allowed to fold thereover medially. The vertical edges of the trousers are manually inserted back of the curved guide angles 5 to slide between the parts 7 and 6 of the lateral narrow loop which forms part of the reach. The circularly shaped angles 8 lend additional elasticity for yieldable displacements to the parts 7 and 4 to permit ingress of the garment, and in reacting these parts become frictional clips upon the garment which hold opposite parts thereof clasped to the reach.
The hanger may therefore be carried about or tilted, without displacing the garment from the clips, but the engagement thereof elastic rod bent at places remote from its so ends to provide shoulders, the middle part between said shoulders being bent to provide opposed double bends connected by a reach all in a horizontal plane, with the outer bends circular and the inner bends tongued outwardly and spaced longitudinally, said members between the shoulders being substantially parallel and narrowly spaced apart.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature.
THOMAS M. BUCHANAN.
