Patented Jan. 8, 1935 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE ATTACHMENT FOR GARMENT HANGERS 4 Claims.
This invention relates to garment hangers, and particularly to an attachment for pants hangers. One object of this invention isto provide an extremely simple, inexpensive and convenient at- 5 tachment for application on the horizontal rod of any conventional and modern pants or skirt hanger, as an intermediary between the rod and the garment so as to preclude or eliminate the unsightly creases and ridges that are made in and on the garments which are left hanging for a while on the rod in absence of the intermediate attachment.
Another object is to provide, in a device of this kind, a simple and practical means to hold lumps 15 of camphor or other fumigating material in an eil'ective relation for dispensing its fumes or vapors to the garment or garments supported on the hanger, and, to utilize the same fumigatorholder as stiffening flanges and as means to avoid 20 the exposure of sharp edges where they would be likely to cut the hands of the user or make unsightly marks on the garments.
Other objects and important features are pointed out or im lied in the following details 25 of description, in connection with the accompanying drawing in which: Fig. 1 is a side view showing the general application of the attachment on aconventional form of wire garment hanger.
Fig. 2 is an enlarged cross-sectional view. of the attachment and a part of the hanger.
Fig.3 is a bottom plan view of the attachment, the middle being broken out.
Fig. 4 is an enlarged longitudinal central sec- 35 tion of the attachment, the middle part being broken out.
Fig. 5 is an end view of the attachment. Referring to the drawing in detail, wherein similar reference numerals refer to similar parts 40 in the several views, the invention is described in detail, as follows:
A substantially rectangular piece of sheet niaterial, preferably very thin metal such as aluminum which is not corrosive, is formed into semicylindrical or near-cylindrical external shape, and has opposite ends formed with inwardly turned flanges 5 which are formed with tongues 6 that are spaced apart at 'I to provide seats, at each .end of the attachment, for the horizontal rod or wire portion of the hanger H; and the tongues 6 serve as keepers to prevent the attachment from turning on the rod or wire portion.
Two longitudinal and parallel flanges 8 are turned abruptly at 9 from the curved surfaces at opposite sides of the attachment, and extend towards the axis of the cylinder or near-cylinder. but do not meet one another, so a space or longitudinal slot 10 is provided between them for unobstructed entrance of the rod or wire portion of the hanger. These flanges 8 also combine with the curved surfaces to form channels or longitudinal pockets for holding lumps of camphor, other fumigating material, perfumery and the like. The ends of these channels or pockets 11 are closed by walls 12 which may be intumed parts or corners of the flanges 8, or parts of the flanges 5.
Each curved side of the attachment is preferably provided with a row of perforations 13, so the fumes or vapors of the material in the troughs or pockets 11 can pass therethrough to distributed parts 'of the pants or other garment supported on the attachment; but it is within the scope of this invention to omit, the perforations, for the open ends and the slot 10 provide means to distribute the fumes or vapors of the materials in the troughs 11. It is also within the scope of this invention to toughen the top of the attachment by surface coating or by other appropriate means to prevent the garment from slipping thereon.
It is not my intention to limit this invention to the precise details of construction, form and material shown and mentioned in the foregoing, for the invention is susceptible of numerous changes within the scope of the inventive ideas as implied and claimed.
What I claim is:
1. A garment hanger attachment formed of sheet material and including a substantially semi-cylindrical body formed with a laterally curved upper surface and a longitudinally slotted lower side, said lower side being formed of two flanges that combine with the curved side portions to form troughs for holding material to fumigate or perfume the garment, and means at the upper inner side of the attachment to form a seat for a horizontal part of the garment hanger.
2. The structure defined by claim 1, the said means consisting of inwardly turned flanges having tongues formedthereon and extending towards the slotted lower side and being spaced from one another.
3. The structure defined by claim 1, the said troughs having end walls formed by inwardly turned parts of the sheet material adjacentto the ends of the troughs.
4. The structure defined by claim 1, the said V means consisting of tongues formed integrally with the said curved upper partand extending downward towards said. lower side and being spaced from one another in such relation that their spaces are directly over or above the slot of said lower. side, so the said horizontal part of the hanger will pass directly into the said spaces when the said horizontal part has passed through said slot during direct downward movement of the attachment when it is being placed on said horizontal part of the hanger.
