GARMENT HANGER.
Application filed August 23, 1926. Serial No. 130,794.
My invention relates to hangers for supporting wearing apparel, and 1s particularly but not exclusively hanger for trousers.
My invention has as its objects: to support clothing in non-wrinkled condition; to support said clothing upright and folded only in its normal creases; to support the upper portion of said garment in stressed condition whereby any wrinkled surfaces are stretched plane either directly by said stress or indirectly by the weight 01 the garment. Further and ancillary objects of my invention are to provide a garment hanger of utmost simplicity of construction and one which requires no complicated and time-consuming manipulation in use.
Referring to the drawings:
Figure 1 is a side elevation of my improved hanger supporting a pair of trousers by its belt straps. Fig. 2 is an edge elevation of the same. Fig. 3 is an enlargedside elevation of the hanger with the hooks retracted to receive a garment. The dash lines represent the adjusted position of the hooks in the cocked position assumed When the waist of a garment is being held stretched by the hooks. Fig. 4 is a fragmentary view of one of the hooks supporting a garment by its suspender buttons. Fig. 5 is a perspective detail of the hook-ended band in operative position with a portionof hanger broken away to disclose the manner of retaining the pair of hooks in the slot. Fig. 6 is a transverse section of a slotted portion of the hanger with the hook-ended band in operative position. The plane of section is indicated by the lines 66 in Figs. 1 and 3.
The hanger consists of a body portion 2 curved on its upper edge to receive the shoulder portion of a coat or other garment.
Means are provided for supporting the waist portion 4 of a pair of trousers or other garment. cut, in line with one another, one at each side of the longitudinal center of the body portion 2, in the lower portion of the hanger.
A pair of aligned hooks 8,10, is suspended from each slot by a U-shaped band 12; the bands being conveniently notched at 14 to form the hooks. The legs of the U-shaped bands straddle the portion of the hanger below the slots, and are thereby retained in position. The bands are narrower than the length of slots, to allow movement; but are of substantial width and are apprecidirected to an improved Horizontal slots 6 and 6 are.
ably thinner than the slots. Thus the bands I may be slid to adjusted position along the hanger by a force applied in line with the slots, while any force applied at the hook ends causes the bandsto tilt slightly and cook themselves against movement along the slots. (See dash-line position in Fig. The hooks are purposely made thin, in order to easily receive the suspender buttons 18 of a pair of trousers 20 (see Fig. 4), as well as to simplify and cheapen the manufacture and assembly of the hanger. It is contemplated that the hook-ended bands 12 will be made in a single punching operation from a metal sheet, will be inserted into the slots6 or 6, and then bent downward at their ends. (See especially Figs. 5 and 6.) The body portion 2, of the hanger, may be made of wood, metal, papier mach or the like. A wire handle 22 is providedas in the usual coat hanger.
In operation: the'bands12 will be retracted to the position shown in Fig 3, and the trousers, skirt, or the like, will be hung in folded upright position on the hooks 10, 8, by its belt straps 24, suspender buttons 18, or other available means, and the bands will then be moved outward in the slots to the position, (shown in Fig 1), where the waist band 4 is placed under tension. This tension of the waistband smooths the longitudinal wrinkles out of the trousers, while the weight of the trousers produces a tension which removes transverse Wrinkles. This latter tension tends to be greatest along the creases 26, 28, where it is most desired, but is sufiicient throughout the intervening area to accomplish its purpose; It is to be especially noted that the trousers are not clamped; the wrinkles are removed andthe shape restored by stretching, not by pressing. 'In fact the hooks 10, 8 of each pair may be spread somewhat if desired to ventilatethe garment. By providing a hanger which supports trousers thus in upright position, the annoying and often costly, spill-. ing of articles from the pockets is avoided. I have described but one embodiment of my invention havingseveral features of advantage. Any or all these advantages might conceivably be secured in modified forms, within the purview of my invention, of the device herein described in detail, and therefore I wish not to be circumscribed beyond the limits of the accompanying claim.
I claim:
A garment hanger comprising a body hgwand said bends being thinner than the width ing spaced collinear horizontal slots for-med of said slots whereby horizontal pull on in its lower portion, and a U-shaped hoolisaid hook ends causes the bands to cook 10 ended band movably su izported in each slot themselvesagainst movement in said slots,

body portion; said hook ends being adopted to support the Waist portion of a garment, ARTHUR H. MILLER.
