(c1. 22a-s2) This invention relates to a garment hanger and has for its vobject to provide, in a manner `as hereinafter set forth, a hanger of the class referred to including an upper hanger element and a lower hanger element having coacting means for detachably connecting them together to enable the employment of the upper hanger element independent of the lower one when desired. Y
A further object of the invention i's to p rovide, in a manner as hereinafter set forth, a garment hanger including an upper hanger element formed with spaced means to prevent `garments suspended on said element by trouser loops or dress straps from slipping off.
A further object of the invention is to provide, in a manner as hereinafter set forth, a garment hanger formed of an upper and a lower hanger element of arcuate cross section and with the lengthwise edges o f said elements inturned throughout for the purpose of eliminating sharp edges thereby preventing the lengthwise edges of said r elements from cutting garments and the hands.
A further object of the invention is to provide, in a manner as hereinafter set forth, a garment hanger Iformed of an upper and a lower hanger element and with each element of arcuate cross section to increase the width thereof thereby providing a greater bearing surface for a garment or a suspension for the. latter'.
Further objects of the invention are to provide, in a manner as hereinafter set forth, a. garment hanger which is simple in its construction and arrangement, strong, durable, including 'down and assembled in a compact manner to reduce storage space and the charge for shipping, and inexpensive to manufacture.` t.

In the drawing:
Figure 1 is a front elevation of the hanger.
Figure 2 is a top plan view.
Figure 3 is a fragmentary view in lengthwise section.
Figure 4 is a fragmentary view in lengthwise section of the upper element of the hangervand further showing a suspension device anchored thereto.
Figure 5 is a section on line 5-5 Figure 3. 65
Figure 6 is a fragmentary viewin top plan illustrating an end portion of the lower element.
Figure 7 is a section on line '1 -7 Figure 3.
The hanger includes an upper element 1, a lower element 2 and a suspension device 3 an- 70 chored to the element 1 at the transverse center 4 of the latter.
The elements 1 and 2 aremade from thin sheet steel of arcuate cross section and enameled to provide smooth bearing surfaces. ment 1 is of arch-shaped contour. The element 2 is straight and is coupled at its ends in a manner to be hereinafter set forth to the element 1 in close proximity to the ends of the latter.' The ends of element 2 extend into the element 1. 80 The cross sectional contour of elements 1,' 2 will be as shown in Figures 5 and 7, and each of said elements atv the vlower terminus of each side thereof is inturned throughout to provide a rounded edge 4, to prevent the cutting of the `hands or the garments. E
The element 1 at the intersection of its transverse and lengthwise mediansis formed with an opening 5. Adjacent the opening 5 the element 1 may be formed in a suitable manner to provide depressions .or cuts to prevent the slipping off thereof of garments which are suspended thereon by trouser loops or dress straps, and by way of example, the said means is shown as consisting of spaced sets of spaced transversely extending cutouts 6 having the front and rear walls "l arranged below the side walls 8 thereof. Each set as shown consists of three cutouts, but it is to be understood that the number of cutouts may The ele- 75 y of element 1 to provide an eye or loop 11. Each end of element 1 is downturned as at 12.
Each end of element 2 is downturned as at 13 and formed with a pair of spaced parallel flared s'lots 14 disposed lengthwise with respect to and arranged adjacent each side of the longitudinal median of element 2. The slits 14 provide each end 13 with a centrally disposed bendable tongue 15 and a pair of abutments 16. The tongues 15 are adapted to extend through the eyes or loops 11 and in connection with the coupling pieces 10 detachably secure elements 1 and 2 together. When the elements are coupled together, the abutments 16 bear against the inner face of the body of element 2.
The suspension device 3 includes a hookshaped member 17 having the shank 18 thereof extended through opening 5 and provided with a head 19 which may be an upset part o shank 18 or a nut. Interposed between the latter and the inner face of element 1 and mounted on the head 19 is a spring steel washer 20 tending to force the member 17 through the opening 5. Arranged on shank 18 and seated on the top face of element 1 is a washer 21. The shank 18 is formed with an enlargement 22 which retards the passage of the member 1'7 down through the opening 5. The enlargement 22 bears against the washer 21.
What I claim is:-
1. A garment hanger including an arch-shaped upper hanger element having a loop in proximity to each end thereof, and a Straight lower element arrangedrbetween said other element and provided at each end with a tongue and a pair of labutments, said tongues and abutments coacting respectively with the said loops and inner face of said upper element for detachably connecting said elements together. I
2. A garment hanger comprising an archshaped upper hanger element of arch-shaped contour in transverse cross section and being formed with a loop extended from its inner face in proximity to each end thereof, and a lower hanger element of arch-shaped contour in transverse cross section and being formed at each end with tongues coacting with said loops for detachably connecting said elements together.
