Description
Oct 24, 1939. L, R, JOHNSON 2,177,546
HAT HANGER Filed June 10, 1938 Patented Oct. 24, 1939 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 1 Claim.
This invention relates to improvements in hat hangers and has for its object to provide a hanger constructed of spring wire bent into the form of an arcuate supporting member adapted to re- 5 siliently engage the inside of a hat and firmly hold the hat on the hanger.
A further object of the invention resides in providing a device of the above-mentioned character which is simple and durable in construction, eflicient in use and inexpensive to manufacture.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will be apparent during the course of the following description.
1 In the accompanying drawing, forming a part of this specification and in which like numerals are employed to designate like parts throughout the same,
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the hanger, and,
20 Fig. 2 is a vertical section of the hanger showing a hat supported thereon.
In the drawing, wherein for the purpose of illustration, I have shown a preferred embodiment of the invention, it will be seen the hanger is 25 preferably constructed of a single length of wire bent into the desired shape and consists of two arcuate shape supporting members I and 4, arranged in spaced parallel relation with their ends connected by cross rods 1. The ends of the wire forming the supporting members are joined together at the top of the supporting member I, as at 5, being bent to extend laterally from the supporting member, with one end of the wire bent upwardly at right angles to the laterally extending portion and bent to form a hook 2 by means of which the hanger is suspended from a hook or rod. The supporting member I at opposite sides is formed with inwardly directed loops 6 to be engaged by the fingers ior contracting the supporting members to permit them to be inserted in the crown of a hat 9. The supporting members being constructed of spring wire will expand into engagement with the sweat band 8 of the hat when released, thus securely holding the hat on the 5 hanger.
In use, when it is desired to place a hat on the hanger, the supporting members I and 4 are contracted and inserted within the crown of the hat. Upon release of the supporting members they 10 will expand into engagement with the sweat band of the hat and firmly hold the hat in place. The rim of the hat rests on the lateral portion 5 and the hook 2 limits the insertion of the supporting members within the hat so they will not extend beyond the sweat band.
It is to be understood that the form of my invention herein shown and described is to be taken as a preferred example of the same and that certain changes in the shape, size and arrangement of the parts may be made without departing from the spirit of the invention or scope of the claim.
Having thus described my invention, I claim:
A hat hanger comprising a single length of spring wire bent to form laterally spaced parallel arcuate supporting members connected together at their ends, the ends of the wire being brought together at the top of one of the supporting members and extending laterally therefrom to permit both of said supporting members to be inserted inside a hat, one end of the wire being bent upwardly at right angles to the laterally extended portion and curved to form a hook, the sides of one supporting member having inwardly bent portions disposed in opposed relation forming finger loops for contracting the supporting members to permit insertion of the supporting members into the hat.
LEVI R. JOHNSON.
