Feb. l0, 1931. F. J. HENRY CLAMPING ADJUNCT FOR COAT HANGERS Filed July 50, 1928 Patented Feb. 1&1), 1931 TATS Mamas Parar oFFICijE FREDERICK J. HENRY, OF T`AUNTON,'LVIASSAGHUSETTS CLAMPING ADJUNCT Application led July 30,
adjunctbeing to clamp a garment such as ay pair of trousers'or a folded dress skirt against the hanger neck so that a Wire coat hanger may be adapted by the adjunct to support a garment in addition to a coat.
Of the accompanying drawings forming a part of this application,
' Figure 1 is a perspective view showing a common form of coat hanger and an adjunct embodying the invention engaged with the hanger neck and clamping the legs of a pair of trousers against the neck.
Figure 2 is an enlarged fragmentary sectiton on line 2 2 of Figure 1.
Figure 3 is an enlarged fragmentary section on line 3 3 of Figure 1.
Figure 4 is a side view showing the adjunct separately.
Figures 5 and 6 are end views looking toward opposite ends of the adjunct.
The same reference characters indicate the same parts in all of the figures.
In the drawings, 12 designates the neck portion, and 18, 13 the shoulder portions of a Well known Wire coat hanger.
The adjunct embodying my invention is composed of a Wire rod, preferably of the same gage as the Wire of Which the hanger is made, and including a straight elongated avv 14, and hooks formed on the ends of said jaw and both projecting from one side thereof.
To distinguish the hooks from each other, I call one a. primary hook and the other a secondary hook.
rllhe primary hook includes an inner arm 15, projecting laterally from one end of the jaw 1a, a neck 15a offs-et by the inner arm from the jaw, and an outer arm 15?) extending beside the arm 15, to form an open hook.
The secondary hook includes an arm 1G, projecting laterally from the opposite end of the jaw 14, a neck 16a offset by the inner arm from the jaw 14, and an outer arm 16?) ex- FOR COAT HANG-ERS 1928. Serial No. 296,312.
tending beside the inner arm 16 to form an open hook, the outer arm being preferably parallel With the inner arm,as best shown by Figure 4f.
lWhen the garment is clamped, it exertsl yielding pressure on the adjunct, so that the necks 15a and 16a are'conned against the hanger neck, the yielding pressure permit-` ting the disengagement of the licoks from the neck, preparatory to the removal of the garment.
Figures 1, 2 and 3 show the legs of a. pair of trousers clamped by the jaw 1e against the neck 12. Y
It is obvious that a folded skirt or other' garment may be thusY clamped.
'lhe hooks are proportioned to maintain the jaw 111 substantially parallel with the hanger neck 12, as shown by Figure 1, and at a clamping distance therefrom, as shovrnby Figures 2 and 3. By clamping distance, l mean that the jaw 14 is so spaced from the neck 12, that garment portions interposed between the jaw and neck are prevented thereby from slipping downward when the" hanger is operatively supported and the garment depends from the hanger.
rFlic separability cf the adjunct from the hanger neck permits the unobstructed application of a garment to one side of the neck, before the adjunct is engaged thereith, se that the garment may be convenientlyY applied in a predetermined position tc the neck, and then clamped between the neck by the au' 14, when the hooks are engaged with theneck.
l claim: rhe combination with a Wire coat hanger including garment shoulder-supporting portions and a neck connecting the same, of a clamping adjunct composed of a wire rod in-` cluding' an elongated clamping jaw and U2 shaped open hooks projecting laterally in the same direction from opposite ends of the jaw, said hooks being separately engageablc with the hanger neck, so that the adjunct n separable from the hanger, the hanger hooks being proportioned to maintain the jaw substantially parallel With the neck and at a clamping distance therefrom when they are engaged With the neck, the separability ofi" the adjunct permitting the unobstructed application of av garment to one side of the neck, the arrangement being such that the applied garment may be clamped by the jaw against the neck by the engagement of the hooks therewith, so that when the hanger is opera,- tively supported, the garment depends therefrom,
In testimony whereof I have aixed my signature.
FREDERICK J. HENRY.
