2 Claims.
My invention relates to improvements in garment hangers, particularly to improvements in wire garment hangers, and an important object of the invention is to provide a standard form of 5 wire garment hanger, the trousers supporting bar of which is rendered rigid, shorter, and otherwise better qualified for securely supporting trousers thereon and preventing the same from sliding from side to side as the garment hanger is moved or carried.
Another important object of my invention is to provide by a simple means which do not greatly add to the cost thereof, a wire hanger of reinforced and strengthened character and construction which prevents the bouncing of the trousers hanger bar when the hanger is 'carried about or removed, thereby preventing throwing or shifting of the trousers .from a proper position upon .the bar, which usually takes place owing to the great and undesired flexibility of this portion of wire hangers now in use.
It is also an important object oi my invention to increase the rigidity of the hanger bars oi wire l hangers of this type without increasing their bulk and size, and without utilizing a material of greater rigidity.
Other'objects and advantages of my invention will be apparent from a reading of the following description in connection with the drawing, wherein for purposes of illustration I have shown a preferred embodiment of the invention.
In the drawing:
Figure l is a general side elevational view of I. the embodiment of the invention.
Figure 2 is a top plan view of Figure l.
Referring in detail to the drawing wherein like numerals refer to like parts throughout the same, the numeral 5 generally refers to the embodiment .which is preferably composed voi' a single length of wire, though it may be constructed of as many as three lengths of wire. Though I do notrequire that the wire usedin constructing the embodiment of the invention be increased in size .o r inherent rigidity, I definitely increase the rigid- 46 ity thereof by the engagement and arrangement of the various portions and parts thereof in the' following manner.
In constructing the embodiment from a single piece of wire any well known manufacturing pro- 5o cedure may be followed so as to produce a hook 6 of well known form, the shank portion '7 of which is twisted with the free end 8 of one of the shoulder bars 9. The shank 7 and the portion 8 of the shoulder bar 9 are mutually twisted upon and` with each other as indicated, then they are separated as indicated at 10 where they lead downwardly to generally horizontal portions 11 and 12 which are quite short. The shoulder bar 9 extends downwardly at an angle from the outer end of the portion 11, while the shoulder bar 13 ex- 60 tends in a similar manner downwardly at an angle from the outer end of the portion l2.
' The trousers hanging bar is indicated by the numeral 14. Instead of being continuous from the shoulder bars 9, 13 in the usual manner of 66 forming hangers of this type; I twistfupon each other the end portions of the trousers hanger bar and of the shoulder bars in twisted formations directed downwardly below the hanger bar as indicated at 15 and 16. 70
This involves a simple and cheap twisting operation which does not add. appreciably to the cost or diillculty of manufacturing the hangers. By this means the hanger bar 14 is elevated above the usual position occupied thereby with respect to the hook 6, the length of the hanger bar ld is shortened so as to leave less space on either side of the trousers when placed thereon, so as to restrictv the trousers against sliding indiscriminately from one side of the bar to the other and creasing or folding and falling off.
By the twisting of the ends df the hanger bar ld upon the ends of the shoulder bars 9, i3 in the manner shown and described, an unexpected rigidity of the hanger bar le results which is sum- $5 cient to prevent bouncing and exing of the trouser bar under ordinary handling conditions so that trousers disposed thereon will not be thrown or displaced therefrom while the hangers are being carried'about or otherwise handled, the 90 foreshortened feature of the hanger bar also contributing to maintaining the trousers in the desired condition thereon.
The raising of the hanger bar le also permits the' hangingV of complete suits in a smaller vertical space than heretofore.
Though I have shown and described herein a preferred embodiment of the invention, it is to be denitely understood that I do not desire to limit the application of the invention thereto, and any change or changes may be made in material and structure and arrangement of parts, within the spirit of the invention and the scope of the subjoined claims.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new is:
1. A garment hanger of the type described comprising a single wire forming a trouser hanger bar, shoulder bars proceeding' from the ends of the hanger bar, a hook formation at the juncture A lil@ zontal trousers supporting bar having portions beyond its ends downwardly directed, and second portions beyind the rst mentioned portion upwardly directed, said first and second portions being twisted upon each other, inwardly and upwardly directed shoulder bars proceeding from said second portions, and a hook formation join- A ing the free ends of said shoulder bars. l
