' CLOTHES HANGER 7 Filed Oct. 17, 1936 INvEMToIa Ea. m G. Beam Patented Aug. 30, 1938 UNITED STATES ATENT OFFICE CLOTHE S HANGER 4 Claims.
This invention relates to clothes hangers designed for supporting a number of conventional wire clothes frames or spreaders, upon which coats or other garments are then hung for the 5 purpose of preserving their form and shape.
'1- the same including an arm arranged to project out horizontally from the hinge and upon which the said clothes frames or Spreaders may be hung in a spaced relation.
Another object of the invention is to provide a hanger bar, with means arranged at one end of the bar for adjustably and removably mounting the bar upon a door hinge for the horizontal extension of the bar.
And still another object of the invention is to provide in combination with a door frame and a door supported therein upon hinges, a hanger bar designed for horizontal alignment with one of the door hinges, means at the inner end of the bar for engaging the hinge at its lower portion, and auxiliary means extended from the bar adjacent said inner end thereof and engaging the hinge at its upper portion, for supporting the bar in its horizontal alignment with the hinge.
With the foregoing and such other objects and advantages in view as will appear from the following specification, attention is now directed to the accompanying drawing constituting part of the specification, and wherein:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a common door hung upon hinges within its frame, there being a clothes hanger made in accordance with my invention extended from and supported upon the upper hinge of the door.
Figure 2 is an enlarged side elevation of the hanger shown as mounted upon a door hinge.
Figure 3 is an enlarged detail view of the hanger bar proper, showing the locking stud mounted upon one side, the outer end of the bar being broken off.
As represented in Figures 1, 2 and 3 the invention comprises a main hanger bar I having a clip 2 rigidly mounted upon its inner end, the extremity of this clip being formed into a cone-like cup 3 adapted to freely engage or seat over the lower end of the knuckle of the upper door hinge 4 which hingedly supports the door 5 within or upon its frame 6. This bar is also provided with a stud I protruding from one side and spaced back from the cup 3, the said stud having an enlarged head Ia. The bar I is further formed along its predetermined upper edge with a series of spaced notches 8, adapted for engaging the hooks 9 of the conventional spreaders III, for the purpose of preventing these spreaders from sliding together upon the bar. to be supported horizontally upon the door hinge 4, and for this purpose an auxiliary, angular hanger link I2 is provided, the same being formed with the relatively long arm I3 designed for vertical disposition in the assembly in use, and having a series of spaced and inclined key holes I4 pierced therethrough with the constricted portions turned downward and thus adapted to pass the head Ia of the stud I through their enlarged upper ends while the narrowed lower portions of the key-holes operate to hold the stud against lateral removal or displacement after the stud is inserted and adjusted in place.
The shorter arm I5 of the link is provided with a clip I6 similar to the clip 2 of the bar I, and has an inverted cone-cup I'I formed and arranged for freely engaging the upper end of the knuckle of the hinge 4 in the same manner as the conecup 3 engages the lower end of the hinge. With the elements I and I2 formed and assembled upon the hinge 4 in the manner pointed out, and then passing the stud I through the appropriate one of the key-holes I4, and locking the stud in the constricted portion of that key-hole, the bar I will stand supported horizontally from the hinge 4, and a number of clothes frames or Spreaders I0 may be readily hung upon this bar and within the notches 8, as may be desired for use. In such use the pincer like action under gravity of the elements I and I2 upon the opposite ends of the hinge, where these elements are freely pivoted by means of the cone-cups 3 and I1, will effectually support the assembly upon the hinge with the bar I horizontally extended for use. This pincer like action of the device upon the hinge is or course intensified by the weight of garments supported from the arm I. It is apparent that the device may be readily adapted to hinges of varying lengths, through the use of the appropriate one of the key-holes I4 for engaging the stud I. It is further obvious that When the device is not in use, it may be readily removed from the hinge and stored away.
In the first described form of Figures 1 to 3, it will be noted that the device may be readily adjusted upon hinges with knuckles of varying lengths, by merely locating the stud I in the appropriate key-hole I I which allows the bar I to stand out substantially horizontally.
While the device is here referred to and de- The bar I is designed scribed as mountable upon a conventional form of door hinge, it is obvious that it might be mounted upon or supported by anything in the nature of a substitute or equivalent of such hinge.
It is thought that the use and operation of the several forms of the invention will be fully un derstood from the foregoing explanations, and while I have herein shown and described certain specific forms and features of the invention, it is understood that I may vary these forms and features in minor details as may be found expedient in practice, and within the scope of the appended claims.
I claim:-
1. In a device of the kind described forjremovably mounting upon door hinges having knuckles of varying lengths and extended ends, a main hanger bar for horizontal extension endwise from a selected hinge, means at the predetermined inner end of the bar for releasably engaging the lower end of-a hinge knuckle, an auxiliary hanger link for positioning vertically adjacent the hinge and across the inner end of the main hanger bar, and means for adjustably connecting the two elements in a pincer-like relation and so as to compensate for hinge knuckles of varying lengths and maintain the main hanger bar in a substantially horizontal position, in mounting the bar upon the selected hinge.
2. In a device of the kind described for mounting upon the hinge of a door, a main hanger bar for horizontal extension endwise from the hinge, an auxiliary hanger link for positioning vertically across the main hanger bar at a point spaced from the inner end thereof, means on the inner end of the main bar and the upper end of the hanger link for releasably engaging the ends of the hinge, and means provided at the crossing of the bar and link for adjustably and pivotally connecting the bar and link for adapting the device to hinges of varying lengths.
3. In a device of the kind described for removably mounting upon a hinge of a door, a main hanger bar for horizontal extension endwise from the lower end of the hinge, a hanger link for vertical extension across the inner end of the bar in spaced relation to the extremity thereof, means on the free adjacent extremities of bar and link for releasably engaging the ends of the hinge in a pincer-like manner, a series of notches or the like being formed along one of the elements and a stud or the like provided on the other element and arranged for selective and releasable engagement with either of the notches, as means for releasably connecting the two elements and adjusting the assembly to door hinges of varying lengths where same will be supported by gravity.
4. In a device of the kind described for mounting upon the hinge of a door, a hanger bar for horizontal extension endwise from the lower portion of the hinge, a hanger link for positioning vertically adjacent the hinge, theends of the bar and link being formed and arranged to engage the ends of the hinge, and means for adjustably connecting the hanger link with the hanger bar, whereby the device may be adapted to engage hinges of varying lengths in a pincer-like manner for sustaining it in operative position through gravity.
