- It is another object of the invention to provide a hat hanger that can be carried in a suitcase when traveling.
- These and other objects of the present invention are achieved in the preferred embodiments disclosed below by providing a hanger for hanging hats and the like, including a flexible elongate support member; at least one suspension device carried on a first end of the support member for suspending the support member from a support; and at least one elongate attachment cord secured to the support member for suspending a hat or the like therefrom.
- According to another preferred embodiment of the invention, the at least one suspension device is a hook.
- According to another preferred embodiment of the invention, the hat hanger further including a clamp positioned on the support member, wherein the at least one attachment cord includes a hook on one end for engaging and being supported by the clamp.
- According to another preferred embodiment of the invention, the at least one attachment cord includes a clip for engaging and securing the hats and the like to the attachment cord.
- According to another preferred embodiment of the invention, the clamp is a hose-type clamp for being positioned on the support member.
- According to another preferred embodiment of the invention, the clamp includes a pair of outwardly-extending fingers for expanding the clamp for allowing the clamp to be moved along the support member.
- According to another preferred embodiment of the invention, a hanger for hanging hats and the like, including a flexible elongate support member; at least one suspension device carried on a first end of the support member for suspending the support member from a support; at least one flexible elongate attachment cord secured to the support member, the attachment cord having a clip for engaging and securing hats and the like to the attachment cord; and at least one clamp positioned on the support member, wherein the attachment cord is secured to the support member by the clamp.
- According to another preferred embodiment of the invention, a hanger for hanging hats and the like, including a flexible and stretchable elongate support member; a pair of hooks, the hooks being carried on opposite ends of the support member for suspending the support member from a support; a plurality of flexible elongate attachment cords secured to the support member, each of the attachment cords having an attachment hook on one end of the attachment cord and a clip disposed on an opposite end of the attachment cord, wherein the clip engages and secures hats and the like to the attachment cord; and a plurality of clamps positioned on the support member, wherein the attachment hook is secured to the support member by respective ones of the clamps.
- According to another preferred embodiment of the invention, the attachment hook is positioned between the clamp and the support member for securing the attachment cord to the support member.
- Some of the objects of the invention have been set forth above. Other objects and advantages of the invention will appear as the invention proceeds when taken in conjunction with the following drawings, in which:
-
FIG. 1 shows an environmental view of a hat hanger suspended in a vertical orientation; -
FIG. 2 shows an environmental view of the hat hanger suspended in a horizontal orientation; -
FIG. 3 shows an environmental view of the hat hanger suspended in a vertical orientation from a flat surface; -
FIG. 4 shows a detail of an attachment cord attached to a support member of the hat hanger by a clamp; and -
FIG. 5 shows a detail of an attachment cord attached to a support member of the hat hanger by a clamp. - Referring now specifically to the drawings, a hat hanger according to an embodiment of the present invention is illustrated in
FIGS. 1 and 2 and shown generally atreference numeral 10. - The
hat hanger 10 includes an elongate support member, preferably comprising a flexible and stretchable material, such as a shock or elastic-type cord 11 having afirst end 12 andsecond end 13. - A pair of suspension devices in the form of
hooks opposite ends cord 1 1. A plurality of spring-biased hose-type clamps 17 are positioned in a spaced-apart relation along thecord 11. Theclamps 17 are slidably attached to thecord 11 to allow theclamps 17 to be positioned in desired locations along the cord and to permit a change in the spacing between theclamps 17. - Elongate
attachment cords 18 are secured by respective ones of theclamps 17 to thecord 11. Theattachment cords 18 are preferably shock or elastic-type cords. One end of eachcord 18 is secured to thecord 11 by aclamp 17. The opposite end of thecord 18 is secured to a spring-biased clip 22, such as an alligator clip, for holding ahat 26, as illustrated, or any other object desired to be suspended. - The flexibility of the
cord 11 allows thehat hanger 10 to be suspended or stored in a variety of configurations. As shown inFIG. 1 , thehat hanger 10 can be suspended vertically from asupport 23 by thehook 14 or suspended horizontally from a pair ofsupports hooks FIG. 2 . Thecord 11 may also be suspended from a flat surface, such as ashelf 27, by thehook 14 as illustrated inFIG. 3 . This is accomplished by providing a point, non-skid material, or other suitable means on the end of thehook 14 to prevent thehook 14 from sliding off of theshelf 27. - The optional stretchability of the
cord 11 also allows thehat hanger 10 to be stretched between spaced-apart supports further apart than the unstretched length of thehat hanger 10. - Referring to
FIG. 4 , theclamp 17 normally fits tightly around thecord 11. Theclamp 17 has a pair of outwardly-extendingfingers clamp 17 to be spread, releasing theclamp 17 from engagement with thecord 11. By depressing thefingers clamp 17 can be moved along thecord 11 to a desired position. Theclamp 17 is then secured to thecord 11 by releasing thefingers clamp 17 and allowing theclamp 17 to compress around thecord 11. - The
cords 18 are secured to thecord 11 by depressing thefingers hook 21 between theclamp 17 and thecord 11. Thefingers clamp 17 are then released allowing theclamp 17 to compress and secure thecord 18 to thecord 11 at a desired position. Alternatively, thecord 18 can be secured tocord 11 by attaching thehook 21 tofinger 31. - Referring to
FIG. 5 , aswivel 32 may be used to secure thecords 18 to thecord 11. Theswivel 32 provides additional flexibility and adjustability to thecords 18. A swivel (not shown) may also be positioned between thecord 18 andclip 22 to add even more flexibility. Theswivel 32 is attached to thefinger 31 of theclamp 17 with ahook 33. Thehook 33 provides aquick release 34 for removing thehook 33 andattachment cord 18 fromfinger 31. - A hat hanging device is described above. Various details of the invention may be changed without departing from its scope. Furthermore, the foregoing description of the preferred embodiments of the invention and the best mode for practicing the invention are provided for the purpose of illustration only and not for the purpose of limitation, the invention being identified in the claims.
