Description
May 2, 1933. l. LEWN Lg'Q GARMENT HANGER Filed Feb. 17. 1932 ISAAC LEVTN, OF BROOKLYN, NEV YORK eAnMnNfr namens Application filed February 1'?, 1932.
lhis invention relates to garment hangers and to the method of making same, and more particularly to wooden hangers made of a pair of sections joined together at the center and provided with a metallic suspension hook the juncture of the said sections.
rlhe wooden coat hangers now on the marliet have many disadvantages and objectionable features, among which the most objectionable ones are the suspension hook structure and means of securing same to the hanger, as well as the means of connecting the hanger sections together.
rlhe said present day hooks are made of a single strip of heavy wire the shank of which is inserted into an opening in the hanger and then fastened in various ways, and the opposite or hook portion terminates in a rough end. Due to this construct-ion the shank soon becomes loose and rotates in the hanger and the rough end often causes lacerations of the hand during handling .and the objectionable feature of the hanger sections connecting means being the fact that corrugated metallic strips are used which when driven into the hanger sections often causes them to be split and ruined.
It is the main object of this invention to obviate these diiiiculties and objectionable features.
Another object of this invention is to provide a two piece wooden garment hanger provided with a suspension hook made of a single strip of wire so formed as to provide a pair of shanls or legs which will pass and eX- tend through a pair of openings one near each abutting end of the hanger sections, and which ends are then bent over and forced back into the said sections, thus providing smooth edges beth at the top and bottom of the hook,
A further object of the invention is to twist the hook directly above the juncture of the hanger sections to securely hold the said sections together and prevent any looseness and slippage of the hoolr in the hanger.
Still another object of the invention is to provide a light weight inexpensive, yet durable hanger made of two wood-en sections tied together at their abutting edges.
Serial No. 593,458.
Another object is to produce a hanger of the character described in which the maximum simplicity of construction and operation is secured.
Other objects and advantages will appear as the nature of the improvements is better understood, the invention consisting substantially in the novel arrangement and co-relation of parts herein fully described, and illustrated in the accompanying drawing, wherein similar reference characters are used to describe corresponding parts throughout the several views, and then finally pointed out and specilically defined and indicated in the appended claims.
The disclosure made the basis of exemplifying the present inventive concept suggests a practical embodiment thereof, but the invention is not to be restricted to the exact details of this disclosure, and the latter, therefore, is to be understood from an illustrative, rather than a restrictive standpoint.
The inventive idea involved is capable of receiving a variety of mechanical expressions, one of which, for the purpose of illustration, is shown in the accompanying drawing, in which- Figure l is a side elevation of my improved hanger.
Figure Q is a bottom plan view of same. Figure 3 is a perspective view of the hook after having been inserted into the hanger,
Figure t is a side elevation of my hanger showing the hook forming wire inserted into l .the hanger sections before it is bent and sehas a similar hole l0 equally spaced from the juncture 8. rlhrough the said openings 9 and l() l pass the ends 1l and 12 of a wire loop i8 (Figure 4E) and then bend the said ends at right angles so that the end l1 points towards the section 7 and the end 12 towards the section 6 after which the said ends are bent upwardly at right angles forming a closed substantially right angular section 15, after which the said section is pressed upwardly in the direction of the arrow 16 causing the pointed ends 11 and 12 to penetrate the wooden hanger sections 6 and 7.
To firmly hold the sections G and 7 together the wire loop is twisted about itself directly, above the said sections as at 17 after which the hook portion 18 is formed.
It will be noted that due to this construction the hook will terminate in a smooth loop end 19 which can in no way lacerate the clothes or hands of the user. It will also be noted that due to the manner of bending, re-entering and twisting of the lower portion of the suspension hook the hanger sections are rmly held together and the hook cannot in any way become loose in the hanger thus maintaining the hook portion 18 in one delinite position. It will further be noted that the lower substantially rectangular section 15 provides a smooth linish at the underside of the hanger. Y
From the foregoing it will be seen that I have provided a simple, inexpensive, yet; durable hanger made of two sections abutting each other, the said sections being firmly held together by the suspension hook which pre-v sents a smooth surface throughout its entire area, and which hook cannot rotate or in any way become loose in the hanger, thus surmounting all the diticulties and obviating the undesirable features inherent in the present day type of hangers. Furthermore notwithstanding the lightness in weight with .which my improved hanger can be made, the manner of binding the hanger sections together as herein above described is such that heavier articles can be held in my hanger without displacing or disrupting the parts than is possible with any of the two piece wood hangers now on the market.
I-Iaving described my invention what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. A garment hanger comprising a pair of hanger sections abutting each other each of the said sections being provid-ed with an opening near its abutting surface, a suspension hook for the said hanger made of a single strip of material bent at approximately the center thereof, a pair of legs at the bottom of the said hook passing through the said openings, and twisted at the point of juncture of the said sections, and end portions on the said legs bent horizontally and then vertically so that the leg passing through one section will reenter the other of said sections.
2. The method of making a two piece wooden garment hanger, which consists in passing a wire loop through the said sections near their juncture, bending the free ends signature.
