SUPPORTING DEVICE FOR GARMENT HANGERS.
Application filed February 6, 1926. Serial No. 86,421.
My invention relates to a supporting device for garment hangers, shown in' the accompanying drawings and more particularly described in the following specification 6 and claims.
The primary object of this invention is to provide a simple and inexpensive device that may be readily attached to a closet door or other location and which is adapted to sup- 10 port a plurality of coat and trouser hangers of usual construction, the arrangement be-. ing such that any one of them may be removed or replaced without danger of disarran ing the garments suspended from the if) other hangers.
Another object of the invention is to pro vide a device which is adapted to maintain the hangers in spaced relation to each other, the construction being such that the several hangers are held so that they will not crowd each other or slip off the end of the supporting arm of the device.
Another object of the invention is to provide a construction which is relatively light,
2 strong and rigid, the supporting arm being so braced thatit is not apt to be bent or disconnected from the bracket member.
Another object of the invention is to construct the supporting arm with a plurality 89 of steps or teeth to receive the respective hangers, the several notches being progressively higher from the front end to the back where it is attached to the door or other support, thereby affording easier access to the .15 several hangers.
As previously indicated, the device is particularly adapted for attachment to a closet door in which location it will be found very convenient, as upon opening the door the several garments suspended from the device may then be. more easily selected, for the reason that the closet door, when swung into the room, will be more accessible, with better light in the majority of cases, for the selection of the garments desired than in the ordinary closet.
With the foregoing and other objects in view which will appear as the description proceeds the invention further resides in the combination and arrangement of parts and in the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed it being understood that changes may be made in the precise embodiment of the invention herein disclosed without departing from the spirit of the same.
In the drawings accompanying this specification:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the device attached to the inside of a closet door, showing in dotted lines a garment suspended from its supporting arm.
Figure 2 is a perspective view of the device ona relatively larger scale.
Figure 3 is an end elevation looking to ward the front-of the supporting bracket by which it is attached to a door or other support.
Figure 4 is a horizontal sectional view, with parts broken away, taken on or about line 44 of Figure 3 showing the manner of securing the supporting arm to the bracket plate by which the device is attached to a door or wall.
. Figure 5 is a vertical longitudinal sec-- tional view taken on or about line 5-5 of Figure 3, with a portion of the arm broken away, showing the bracket plate and pro-- j ectingchannel on which the supporting arm rests and the inwardly bent integral ears of the plate to which the arm is riveted.
Referring now. to the letters of reference placed upon the drawings:
A denotes a closet door. B is a'bracket formed of sheet metal comprising a plate B perforated for the passage of screws by which it is secured to a door or other support. B are ears struck up from the body of the metal and bent to embrace a sawtoothed supporting arm 0, secured thereto by a rivet D extending through the ears and supporting arm. The supporting arm rests in a channel 13 struck up from the forwardly extending portion of the bracket B,integral with the plate B Adjacent the plate B the channel portion is bent downwardly,see b,on a plane with the lower edge of the end plate, to provide a brace or truss construction which serves to stiffen the supporting arm. The upper edge of the supporting arm is inclined from front to back, and is provided with a plurality of notches or teeth C to receive the hook H of a garment hanger H By inclining the upper edge of the supporting arm, any of the several hangers may be readily selected and removed when desired ;andwhen the same are to be replaced, it will be at once apparent where a resting place on the supporting arm may be found for the hanger.
It will be obvious that the notches in the supporting arm serve to maintain the hangers 1n spaced relation to each other and that they also prevent the hangers from slipping off the en of the arm even though the garments sus ended from each hanger may be of a ver ulky character.
It wi also be obvious that the end of the supporting arm C may either be riveted to the ears 13*, as shown,-or the ears may be indented into the aperture providedin the supporting arm, or the parts may be spotwe ed as preferred.
Having thus described my invention what I claim is:
1. In a device of the character described, a sheet metal bracket member comprising an end plate having spaced ears struck from the body of the plate to receive the end of a garment supporting bar, also an integral channel-shaped portion extending at right angles from the lower edge of the end plate, a garment supporting bar lodged in said channel portion of the bracket having a plurality of teeth on its upper edge and means for securing the end of the bar to the ears of the bracket member,
2. In a device of the character described, a sheet metal bracket member comprising an end plate having spaced ears struck from the body of the plate to receive the end of a garment supporting bar, also an integral channel-shaped'portion extending at right angles from the lower edge of the plate, the metal forming the walls of the channel adjacent the plate bent downwardly on a gradual incline to a horizontal plane corresponding with the lower horizontal edge of the plate, to provide a brace to stiflen the end plateand the channel arm, a supporting bar lodged in said channel-shaped portion of the bracket having a plurality of teeth on its upper edge, and a rivet extending through the ears and supporting bar to secure the bar to the bracket. member.
In testimony whereof, I sign this specification.
