Description
June 24, 1930. w. H. ALLEN 1,766,275
GARMENT HANGER Filed March 25, 1928 INVENTOR WITNESS:
Patented June 24, 1930 UNITED STATES GABMEN 1 Application filed March 23,
My present invention has reference to a coat or like garment hanger and my object is the provision of a hanger for this purpose whereby a number of garments may be 5 suspended therefrom.
A further object is to provide a garment hanger with hook-like members that are. swingably supported on the lower edge, adjacent to the ends thereof, and movable to varying desired angles with respect to the hanger, whereby to support thereon ladies slips, skirts, etc. by engaging the straps attached to the waist bands of said skirts, so that skirts havin different size waist bands may be thus effectively supported on the under edge of the hanger and other garments supported directly on the hanger.
A further object is the provision of a garment hanger that has on its lower edge swingable hook-like members whose beaks or engaging portions are arched in cross section so as not to inflict injury to the garment engaged thereby and which members, at points, adjacent their pivotal connection with the hanger, are provided with teats or like impinging elements which engage with the hanger and hold the said hooks when swung to desired angles on the hanger, the said hooks when arranged angularly with respect to the hanger, designed to support thereon a plurality of garments and likewise serving as means for spreading the garments away from the hanger when supported directly thereon to permit of a free circulation of air through such garments.
To the attainment of the foregoing the invention consists in the improvement as hereinafter described and definitely claimed.
In the drawings:
Figure l is a side elevation of one'form of the improvement, a portion of the handle being in section.
Figure 2 is a similar view of a second form of the improvement.
Figure 3 is a plan View looking toward one end of the device illustrated in Figure 2 and showing the hook swung laterally on the hanger by the full lines and swung angularly on the hanger by the dotted lines.
HANGER 1928. Serial No. 264,020.
Figure 4 is a detail sectional view approximately on the line 4- 4C of Figure 2.
Figure 5 is a fragmentary side elevation illustrating a still further form of hook which may be employed.
In Figure 1 of the drawings, the wooden hanger 1 is of the ordinary construction and is centrally provided with a sus ending hook 2. In the showing of this igure "1 have screwed through the under edge of the hanger 1, adjacent to the ends thereof, the
threaded shanks 3 of rounded hooks 4. As
disclosed on the right hand side of Fig. 1, the shanks 3 may extend entirelylthrough the hanger and instead of being threaded may have their endsheaded. Each shank 3 is formed with a laterally extending spring finger 5, and each of these fingers has on its upper face a teat or like member 6. The rounded portions of the hooks l are arched in cross section, so that the said hooks will not inflict injury to a garment engaged thereby. The hook i may be turned to bring its rounded portion toward the end or toward the center of the hanger 1, the teat on the spring finger serving as an impinging element for holding the hook in either of these positions. Also the hook may be turned laterally or at desired angles toward the side of the hanger and in this manner it will be noted that the hook will aceommodate garments of different sizes, and likewise, when the hook is swung laterally a garment supported upon thehanger will be spaced therefrom to permit of a free circula- 35 tion of air therethrough.
In Figures 2 and 8 the wooden hanger is indicated by the numeral 7 and is shaped a little different from that disclosed by Figure 1. The hanger is centrally provided with a suspending hook 8, and adjacent to its ends, on its under face the said hanger has pivotally attached thereto, by screws or like headed elements 9 the central arched portion 10 of hooks 11,-11. The outer ends of these hooks are bent in the direction of the parallel arms of the arched portions 10, as indicated by the numerals 12 and the hooks are comparatively broad and are arched in cross section as indicated by the ma numeral 13. The central portion of the arched member 10 of the hooks 11 is provided to one side of the pivot 9 with a teat or like impinging element 14 which engages with the under face of the hanger 7 and sustains the double hooks 11 when arranged longitudinally on the hangers 7 or laterally or angularly with respect thereto. In Figure 5 the construction is substantially similar to that disclosed by Figures 2 and 3, except that only one hook member 15 is employed and that this hook member has both of its ends flanged and one of the said ends provided with a longitudinal extension 16 through which passes a pivot 17 that attaches the same to the under face or edge of the wooden hanger 18. The extension 16 has an inherent resiliency which is true with respect to the arched portions 10 of the hooks 11. The extension 16 is provided with a teat or like impinging element 19 to engage with the under face or edge of the wooden hanger 18 for the same purpose as previously described.
The simplicity and advantages of the construction will be apparent to those skilled in the art to which the said invention relates after the foregoing description has been carefully read in connection with the accompanying drawings.
Having described theinvention, I claim:
1. In a garment hanger, a hanger bar, hook-like elements including an attaching portion connected with the bar to permit turning movement of the hook, and teats carried by the attaching portion for engagement with said bar to hold the hook in either of two given positions.
2. In a garment hanger, a hanger bar, a hook including a shank supported by said bar to permit turning movement of the hook, a resilient element projecting laterally from the shank, and a teat carried by said element for engagement with said bar to hold the hook fixed relatively to the latter in either of two positions.
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature.
