CLOTHES Application filed June 15,
My present invention relates to an improved clothes-hanger or suit hanger for use in supporting both mens suits and clothes as well as womens dresses, suits and other garments. While the improved clothes hanger is designed especially for use by clothes cleaning establishments, laundries, dyers, clothes pressers, and other commerclal oper ators, it is also useful as a household article.
As is well known, after a suit or garment sromn, wasnmo'ron HANGER 1931. Serial No. 544,433.
Figure 1 is a view showing a wire hanger equipped with the casings of my invention. Figure 2 is a fragmentary view showing the manner of screwing a casing on the cross bar of the hanger.
The suit or clothes hanger is of the usual type for use in supporting mens suits, coats, trousers &c. and womens dresses, suits, coats, &c., and is provided with the cross bar 1, converging side arms 2, 2, and bends 3. The arms has been laundered, cleaned and pressed, Thre fastened together by twisting at 4, and
usually in a steam press, and while moist, the suit or garment is placed upon a wire clothes. hanger or garment support, for delivery. In many instances, when the garmentdries on a wire hanger or support, the wire, due to the weight of the garment supported thereon, forms an acute and undesirable crease in the goods or material of the garment. I
The purpose of my invention is to provide the usual wire hanger or support with tubular casings or covers that will insure a much larger surface area for the support and thereby reduce the acuteness or wholly eliminate the formation of a crease in the moist garment as it dries on the hanger.
In carrying out my invention the wire hanger, which in itself is comparatively inexpensive, is equipped with inexpensive casings or covers for the cross bar and converg; ing side arms and means are provided I whereby the covers may be placed in position with facility, with a minimum of labor, and in a minimum period of time.
The tubular casings or covers ,are preferably formed of cardboard, straw board or heavy paper, and constructed in such manner that they can readily be placed upon the cross bar and arms of the hanger. The invention consists in certain novel combinations and arrangzmentsof parts as will hereinafter be more fully set forth and claimed.
In the accompanying drawing I have illustrated one complete example of the physical embodiment of my invention wherein the parts are combined and arranged according to the best mode I have thus far devised for the practical application of the principles of my invention.
mandrel, while the material is in a plastic (0 condition, by wrapping a single layer-or strip in spiral formation on the mandrel, and when dried, the tube is of cylindrical shape, and the material of the tube possesses suflicient resiliency or elasticity to permit placing the tube on the wire of the hanger without materially deforming the shape of the tube or casing.
Thus, at. one end of the tube, the spiral slit, or the end of the slit, ma he slipped over the wire, then, as, indicate by the arrows in Figure 2 the tube is screwed on the wire bar 1 until the tube, which has previously been cut to the proper length, covers substantially the length ofthe bar. The tubes 7 and 8 are screwed on the arms 2, 2, in a similar manner, and after the tubes have been properly located they present the appearance as shown in Figure 1.
At the forward and rear ends of the tubes, notches 10,10 may be cut in the wall of the cylindrical tube, especially tube 6, and these notches, which engage the wire at the bends 3, 3, prevent the tube from rotating or turn ing on'the wire bar as 1. Thus, when a pair of trousers are folded andsuspended over the tube 6, even though one fold may be heavier than the other and thus have a tendency to turn the tube, the latter is prevented from turning. It will be apparent also that the friction between the cloth or material of the 2 memes trousers emu the exterior surface of the strawboard tube, will prevent the trousers from slippin 03 of the non-rotatable tube. As is well inown, the friction between the mar 5 terial of the trousers and the wire cross bar, is frequently insuficient to hold the trousers from slipping, but when the tube 6 is used this ossibility of displacement at the trousers is elimineteci. v
m Ordinarily the bends 2 between the cross bar and the arms are suficient to prevent turning of the tubes 7 and 8, but these tubes else may have the notches 10 eppliedl thereto to en age the wire and prevent turning of the tu es 7 end 8.
Heving thus fully (iescribed my invention, what I claim as new en& desire to meure by Letters Patent is i The combination with e wire clothes hanger, of u tube of resilient material emu cylindrical in shape, seicl tube havingu splreii slit throughout its length to permit screwing on the wire, and notches in the enis of the tube for co-uction with the wire to pr vent turning of the tube on the wire.
I In testimony whereof I atfir m signature.
