Abstract
A sizer marks with a size on each of its four sides. The sizer includes a main body which at least has four sides and a top surface for connecting the four sides; wherein the top surface has a hole for a hook on a garment hanger extending therethrough; wherein the four sides of the main body are marked each with a size of a garment so that consumers can easily read a sizer from either direction to select a desired garment.
Description
- 1. Field of the invention
- The present invention relates to a sizer used on a garment hanger, and more particularly to a sizer that can be marked with a size on each of its four sides for a consumer to easily read the size on the garment hanger.
- 2. Description of the Prior Art
- There are various types of sizers used on garment hangers. Referring to
FIG. 1 , it depicts a schematic view showing the appearance of a normally used sizer 1 on a garment hanger. The sizer 1 includes a plurality ofsides 10 and atop surface 12 for connecting thesides 10. Thesides 10 and thetop surface 12 define a receiving space and the receiving space is used to receive a connectingportion 16 on ahook 14 of the garment hanger. The connectingportion 16 of thehook 14 has thereon a plurality oftenons 17, while the sizer 1 is provided thereon with a plurality ofmortises 18 for engaging with thetenons 17, thereby when in engaging the sizer 1 can be firmly connected onto thehook 14. By the limitation of shape of the connectingportion 16, the sizer 1 is designed to be flat and elongate; hence it can only have its broader surfaces marked to indicate thesize 19 of a garment. The above conventional sizer only has its broader surfaces marked to indicate the sizes of a garment. By influence of the directions of the garment hangers and hanging rods, consumers mostly tend to view the sizer indirections directions - Therefore, the present invention is aimed at improving of the conventional sizer to provide a sizer that is marked with a size on each of its four sides for a consumer to easily read and then select the garment.
- The primary objective of the present invention is to provide a sizer that is marked with a size on each of its four sides for consumers' convenience to read the size of a garment.
- To achieve the above stated objective, the sizer applicable on a garment hanger of the present invention and being marked with a size on each of its four sides includes a main body which at least has four sides and a top surface for connecting the four sides; wherein the top surface has a hole for a hook on the garment hanger extending therethrough; wherein the four sides of the main body are marked each with a size of a garment.
- The present invention will be apparent after reading the detailed description of the preferred embodiment thereof in reference to the accompanying drawings.
-
FIG. 1 is a schematic perspective view of a conventional sizer used on a garment hanger; -
FIG. 2 is perspective view showing the appearance of a preferred embodiment of a sizer having its four sides marked each with a size and a garment hanger of the present invention; -
FIG. 3 is a partial sectional view of the sizer inFIG. 2 . -
FIG. 4 is a perspective view of the sizer and the garment hanger inFIG. 2 after assembling. - Referring to
FIG. 2 it is a perspective view showing the appearance of a preferred embodiment of asizer 3 having its four sides each marked with a size and attachable to agarment hanger 4. - The
garment hanger 4 has a connectingportion 42 having a connectinghole 43. Ametallic hook 41 is connected to the connectinghole 43 to allow thegarment hanger 4 to be hung. Thesizer 3 can be attached to thegarment hanger 4 provided with themetallic hook 41. - The
sizer 3 has amain body 30 including a plurality ofsides 31 and atop surface 32 for connecting thesides 31. In this embodiment, themain body 30 at least has foursides 31 marked each with asize 34 of a garment. Thetop surface 32 has ahole 35 for thehook 41 on thegarment hanger 4 extending therethrough. As shown inFIG. 3 , the foursides 31 and thetop surface 32 define areceiving space 36 and thereceiving space 36 is used to receive the connectingportion 42 on thegarment hanger 4. - In this embodiment, the connecting
portion 42 has a specific length L1 and a specific width W1 and thereceiving space 36 has an inner length L2 that is slightly larger than the specific length L1 of the connectingportion 42, and thereceiving space 36 has an inner width W2 that is larger than the specific width W1, the connectingportion 42 can be received in thereceiving space 36. Thereceiving space 36 also can be designed to be matched with the shape of the connectingportion 42 in order that thesizer 3 can be firmly connected with the connectingportion 42. - The connecting
portion 42 is provided on its two lateral sides each with a protruding first engaging portion and themain body 30 of thesizer 3 is provided at positions on its inner side in corresponding with that of the first engaging portions with second engaging portions, in order that the first engaging portions are engaged with the second engaging portions when the connectingportion 42 is received in thereceiving space 36. Thesizer 3 can be firmly connected with the connectingportion 42. Wherein the first engaging portions are engagingblocks 44, while the second engaging portions are engaginggrooves 37, so that when thesizer 3 is connected with the connectingportion 42, theengaging blocks 44 are engaged in theengaging grooves 37, and thesizer 3 can be firmly connected with thegarment hanger 4 as is shown inFIG. 4 . - Therefore, the present invention has the following advantages:
-
- 1. The sizer of the present invention has plain surfaces to allow printing thereon larger letters or sizes for viewing of a consumer.
- 2. In addition to having plain surfaces, the first engaging portions on the connecting portion and the corresponding second engaging portions on the sizer of the present invention can be engaged with each other, so that the sizer can be firmly connected with the garment hanger against dropping.
- 3. The present invention has plain side surfaces each printed thereon with the size of a garment on the garment hanger. Thereby a consumer can easily see the size for selecting a desired garment.
- In conclusion, according to the description disclosed above and the drawings, the present invention surely can achieve the expected objective thereof to provide a sizer that can be marked with a size on each of its four sides and used on a garment hanger. The present invention is practically valuable.
- The embodiment stated above is only for illustrating the present invention, and not for giving any limitation to the scope of the present invention; it will be apparent to those skilled in this art that various equivalent modifications or changes according to the idea of and without departing from the spirit of this invention shall also fall within the scope of the appended claims.
