Description
F. HlLLE GARMENT HANGER Original Filed Dec. 28, 1934 Patented Oct. 26, 1937 UNITED sraras GARMENT HANGER Frederick Hille, Los Angeles, Calif.
Application December 28, 1934, Serial No. 759,514 Renewed March 2, 1937 2 Claims.
This invention relates to garment hangers and is an improvement over the construction -disclosed in my prior United States Patent No. 1,922,161 issued August 15, 1933.
The hanger of the above construction comprised a rigid supporting bar, a pair of tubular members slidably mounted thereon having upward turned ends adapted to be inserted in the waist band of a garment and springs associated therewith normally urging them outwardly on said supporting bar into engagement with the waist band of the garment.
While the hanger very effectively served its intended purpose (and was adjustable to a certain degree) it was found necessary to make them in different sizes in order to support all size garments.
It is therefore the object of the present invention to provide a garment hanger of the character referred to so constructed that it may be easily and quickly adjusted to the waist band of practically all size garments, thereby eliminating the necessity of supplying them to the trade in different sizes.
Other objects and advantages will be apparent from the following description, reference being had to the accompanying drawing in which:
Fig. 1 is a side elevation of the improved garment hanger.
Fig. 2 is a top view of the hanger taken in the direction indicated by the arrow 2 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a bottom view taken in the direction indicated by the arrow 3 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 4 is a longitudinal section taken on line 4-4`of Fig. 2.
Fig. 5 is a detail section, lines 5 5 of Figs. 1 and 4.
Fig. 6 is a similar View to Fig. 5 but showing the spring latch in disengaged position.
Referring more specifically to the drawing I0 designates the supporting bar or member of the improved hanger which is preferably formed of round wire stock of suiciently large diameter to render the same rigid.
Formed in bar I0 midway of its ends is an arched portion II and secured thereto is a hook I2 for supporting the hanger, in the usual manner.
Slidably and telescopically engaging the straight portions I3 of the bar are tubes I 4 having closed outer ends I5 and formed in the underside of said tubes are elongated slots I6 that receive pins or keys Il projecting from the bars adjacent each end thereof.
Pins il serve to hold tubes I4 against rotation on the straight portions I3 also to prevent sepaare tubular members 20 having upwardly turned ends 2| that are adapted to engage inside of the Waist band of a garment not shown.
The present invention resides more specifically in means for adjusting members 20 on the tubes I4 and retaining them in adjusted position whereby the distance between the upwardly turned ends ZI may be varied according to opening of the waist band of the garment to which the hanger is to be applied, arranged as follows:
Formed in the upper side of tubes I4 is a plurality of evenly spaced cross slots designated at 22 that are adapted to be selectivelyV brought into register with single slots 23 formed in the members 20 adjacent their inner ends. f
Secured to members 20 by'rivets or'the like 24 are leaf springs 25 the free ends 26 of which normally extend through the slots formed in said members and tubes. Y
By turning the members 20 in relation to the tubes i. e. about one-half turn as shown in Fig. 6 the free ends of the springs will be moved out of register with the slots in the tubes thereby permitting members to be moved longitudinally thereon whereby vthe springs may be selectively brought into engagement with any of the slots in the tubes thereby increasing or diminishing the distances between the upturned'ends 2| for the purpose above referred to.
I claim;
1. A hanger of the character described comprising a supporting bar, tubes having a plurality of cross slots formed therein slidably mounted on each end of said supporting bar, springs normally urging said tubes outwardly on said bar, tubular members slidably mounted on said tubes each having a slot therein adapted to be selectively brought into register with the slots in said tubes,
and leaf springs secured to said tubular members f and arranged to extend through the slots formed therein and the slots in the tubes whereby said tubular members may be adjusted longitudinally on said tubes and retained in adjusted position thereon.
faces thereof Iyng n a plane tangentially to the v outer face of said supporting bar,tubular members slidably and rotatably mounted on said tubes and having crosswise slots therein, and leaf springs secured at one end to said tubular members and having attened free ends normally extending through the slots therein and the slots in said tubes whereby said tubular members may be adjusted longitudinally on said tubes.
FRED HILLE.
