This invention relates to improvements in garment supporters designed particularly for use in wardrobe trunks although adapted for use also in closets and other places.
The object of the invention is to provide a supporter that will be simple and durable in construction and capable of being used in trun s or closets of varying widths and which shall be capable both of bodily movement and a free swinging action upon its supporting rods or bars. .The invention consists generally in the constructions and combinations hereinafter described and particularly pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings forming part of this specification,
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a portion of a wardrobe trunk showing my improved garment supporter arranged therein;
Figure 2 is a vertical section of the trunk showing two of the garment supporters arranged therein;
Figure 3 is a perspective view of the garment supporter; and 1 Figures 4 and 5 are detailed perspectives showing modified constructions.
In the drawings, 2 represents a ortion of a wardrobe trunk of any suitable size and construction. The general supporter comprises a garment sustaining frame 3 preferably provided with sloping members 4 and horizontal member 5. As here shown, the frame 3 is preferably formed of a single rod' or wire bent into the form shown and having its ends upwardly extending and secured within a bracket 6, which is preferably provided with a sleeve 7, through which passes a horizontal bar 8, and to which the sleeve, preferably, is rigidly secured. I have shown the bar 8 of tubular form, and arranged in each of its open ends is a sliding bar 9 provided with a hook 10. These bars are arranged to slide freely in the ends of the tubular bar 8 and may therefore be moved in and out so as to adapt the supporter for use in trunks or closets of varying widths. The trunk or closet in which the supporter is to be used is provided, near its side walls, with the horizontal bars 12 secured in position by suitable brackets 13 and 14.
In Figure 4 I have shown the bar 8 in the form of a solid rod with the hook 10 secured to a short tubular section 15'whioh telescopes over the end of'the bar 8; In- Figure 5 I have shown thebar 8 of rectangular sleeve 16 to which the hook-104s secured. r I 1 The'member "5 of the garment supporting frame is substantially parallel tothe bar so that an article-of clothing may be sup-Q- ported upon saidmember by beingfolded and hung/thereon. The sloping members 4 constituting the upper part of the garment holding frame are adapted to carry thereon coats and similararticles, the sloping me1n-. berscoming withinthe upperv or shoulder parts of said garments.
This garment supporter is capable of being moved to any desired position within the trunk on the bars 12 and the garments hang freely thereon the frame being capable of swinging back and forth as indicated by dotted lines in Figure 4.
WVith this structure the garments may be placed on the supporters either before the supporters are put in position in the trunk, or they may be placed thereon while the supporters are in position on the supporting bars. The garments are also readily accessible without removing them from the trunk. As the supporters are capable of a swinging action the clothes may very easily be made to hang smoothly thereon so that when the trunk is closed and the clothes are compacted together there will be little liability of their becoming jammed or wrinkled. As the supporters are capable of being used in trunks of varying widths they may be made of a standard size. and adjusted by the user to accommodate the width of the trunk in which it is desired to place the same.
I do not limit myself to the details of construction as the same may be changed in any particular without departing from my invention.
I claim as my invention:
1. A garment supporter comprising a tubular element, a clothes supporting frame secured to said tubular element and provided with oppositely extending sloping members havingtheir lower ends joined by a horizontal member, and bars, provided with hooks at their ends, and slidably supported in the opposite ends of said tubular element.
2. A garment supporter comprising a horizontally extending main bar, a clothes sustaining frame secured to said main bar and provided with oppositely extending sloping members having their lower ends joined by a horizontal member, and longitudinally extending bars, provided with hooks at their ends, and slidably androtatably supported in the opposite ends of said main bar.
3. The combination with a trunk having supporting means adjacent the walls thereof, of a garment hanger adapted to be suspended between said supporting means and comprising an elongated member, a device adapted to fit into a garment and having means for connection with the middle portion of said elongated member to be supported thereby, and hook members loosely engaging said supporting means and having end portions adapted to slide in said elongated member and rotate thereon whereby said elongated member is free to slide and rock on said hook members and accommodate itself to different positions of the garment in the trunk.
4. A device of the class described, comprising a tubular member having a hanger frame rigidly connected thereto, and a pair of rod like elements telescopically engaged in said tubular member from opposite ends, each rod having a terminal hook adapted for sliding attachment to a support, the terminal portions of said telescopic supporting elements, when attached, being separated by a distance substantially greater than the length of the tubular member, to permit translative adjustment of the tubular member thereon in either direction.
5. In combination with a pair of spaced supports, a tubular member of substantially less length than the distance between said supports, and having a hanger frame secured thereto, and rod elements, one telescopically engaging said tubular member at each end, each rod being engaged with a respective support to hold said rods against lengthwise translation. H
In witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand this 29th day of January, 1926.
