ATTORNEYS Patented Dec. 15, 1931 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE LEOPOLD LEWIS ORKIN, OF NEW YORK, N. Y., ASS IGNOR, BY MESNE ASSIGNMENTS, TO DU FOLD BRUSH MANUFACTURING 00., INC; OF NEW YORK, N. Y., A CORPORATION OF NEW YORK.
FOLDABLE WARDROBE APPLIANCE Application filed April 28,
This invention relates to wardrobe appliances and has particular reference to a foldable garment hanger and brush.
An object of the invention is to provide an improved appliance of simple and practical Construction in which two complemental sections thereof are hingedly connected so as to be adjusted to folded position, and wherein the supporting means of the device is formed of a single length of rod or wire pivotally connected to one of the sect-ions and provided with a latching portion at one extremity adapted to engage a projection on the other section of the device to maintain said sections in aligned operative position.
The above and other objects-will appear more clearly from the following detailed description, when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, which illustrate a preferred embodiment of the inventive idea.
In the drawings Figure 1 is a front elevation of the ap pliance constructed in accordance with the invention;
Figure 2 is a perspective View of the same folded; and
Figure 3 is a fragmentary edge elevation.
Referring more particularly to the accompanying drawings, the numerals 4 and 5 indicate complemental sections of the appliance which have their meeting ends hingedly connected at- 6 so that when said sections are not secured in aligned position they may be folded one upon another, as indicated in Figure 2. The two sections 4 and 5 combine to form a hanger and the free end of each section is provided with a brush 7.
The appliance further includes a latching device for supporting said sections and maintaining the same in alignedrelation and, as shown, this device is formed from a single length of rod or wire 8, one extremity of which is bent in the form of a hook 9 for suspending the appliance when the same is in use. At an intermediate point the wire is formed with a pivot bearing 10 adapted to receive the shank of a stud 11, preferably in the form of a screw, which is secured in the section 5 adjacent the inner end thereof. From this point practically the entire 1931. Serial No. 533,439.
remaining portion of the wire is bent upon itself and into the form of a hook 12 disposed on the opposite side of the stud 11 from the hook 9 and adapted, when the device is in its latching or operative position, as shown in full lines in Figure 1, to have a garment or the like suspended therefrom. The extremity of the wire opposite that formed into the hook 9 is disposed in the same plane as the pivot bearing 10 and is curved to form a latching portion 13 and provides a recess into which the shank of the stud 14, similar to the stud 11, enters when the device is in operative position, thereby preventing the sections 4 and 5 from being swung about their pivot 6 to a folded position. When it is desired to fold the appliance the latching device is swung to the dotted line position of Figure 1 to disengage the latching portion 13 from the stud 14 and the parts may then be swung to the position of Figure 2.
What is claimed is:
1. In a wardrobe appliance comprising a pair of hingedly connected sections which combine to form a clothes hanger, a latching device pivoted to one section for maintaining said sections in operative position relative to each other, said device being formed from single length of wire bent at one extremity to provide supporting hook for the appliance, and intermediate its ends to form a pivot bearing, the other extremity being bent to provide a latching portion, and a stud carried by one of said sections and enga-geable bv said latching portion when said sections are in operative position.
2. In a wardrobe appliance comprising a pair of hingedly connected sections which combine to form a clothes hanger, a latching device pivoted to one section for maintaining said sections in operative position relative to each other, said device being formed from a single length of wire bent at one extremity to provide a supporting hook for the appliance, and being further formed with a pivot bearing intermediate its ends for pivotally connecting said device to one of said sections, the remaining portion of said wire extending from said pivot bearing being bent upon itself to provide a supporting hook and a latching portion at the other extremity of the wire a stud carried by one of said sections and engaged by said pivot bearing, and a second stud carried b the other section and engaged by said? l'atchlng portion to retain said= sections in operative position.
In testimony whereof, I have aflixed' my signature-.-
