MULTIPLE GARMENT RACK Filed May 6, 1938 1 J77 7750; Z w 14 ,Zify a j 21 I 'KZ Z ZZ 7 27459 Patented Nov. 7, 1939 :UNlTED STATES ATENT oFrIoE 3 Claims.
My present invention relates to garment racks and more particularly to a multiple garment rack which may be attached to the back of a door or on the wall of a closet requiring very little space and accommodating a number of garments.
The principal object of my invention is an improved multiple garment rack;
Another object is an improved multiple garment rack upon which a series of garments may be hung one above the other; I
Still another object is an improved multiple garment rack which can be used in units of two or more upon which garments may be hung one above the other and on poles horizontally supported between the several sections of said garment racks, and
Other objects and novel features comprising the construction and operation of my invention will appear as the description of the same progresses.
In the drawing illustrating the preferred embodiment of my invention:
Fig. 1 is a side elevation showing my improved garment rack in position for use, the dot and dash lines illustrating one of the positions in which the rack may be placed when placing a garment on it or when removing a garment;
Fig. 2 is a front elevation of the rack, the dot and dash lines indicating poles which may be horizontally disposed between two or more racks, if desired;
Fig. 3 is an enlarged cross-section taken on the line 3-3 of Fig. 1 showing the method of hinging the several units together. The dot and dash lines indicate one of the horizontal poles previously referred to, and
Fig. 4 is a cross-section taken on the line 4- on Fig. 2 showing one of the fastening members.
Referring more in detail to the drawing, l indicates a top supporting member comprising a conventional garment hook which is in general use for hanging garments from the wall of a closet or wardrobe cabinet.
My invention is confined to several units suspended from the hook H]. The top and bottom units II and I2 differ somewhat over each other but the intermediate units l3 are duplicates of each other. In each instance the hinge member connecting the said units together comprises an annular grooved ring M which is hollow in the center, the ring being formed from spun sheet metal tubing or the like. The top of each unit [3 forms a partially closed loop which may be sprung on over one of the grooves of the ring 14 garment rack to any desired size. If a longer rack is desired more units are inserted and the bracket I5 is dropped to a lower position. The bottom of each unit is preferably bent all the way around the ring 14 in a more or less permanent 5 manner as shown in Fig. 1. On the end of the top of each unit I have formed a garment hook it upon which is hung the garment. The top and bottom of each unit are rotatable about the ring members 84 such that any desired hook may be pulled forward when taking off or placing on a garment as illustrated in Fig. 1 in dot and dash lines.
The top unit H is provided with a top portion in the form of an elongated loop one side of which 15 is notched at 18 for the purpose of receiving an indented point IS on a slide member 20' such that the top of the elongated loop I! may be placed over the hook I!) and the slide 20 adjusted up against the under side of the hook ID, the notches 20 I8 and indentures l9 on the slide 20 maintaining the apparatus in a secure position about the hook.
The bottom unit 12 is provided with a similar loop and hook 16 but the opposite end is bent around the bracket I5 which is a flat vertically disposed member having twisted and bent ends 2! adapted to be screwed to the wall or back of a door as the case may be. The member I2 is adjustable along the bracket member l5 as shown in dot and dash lines making it possible to pull out the hook l6, or any one of the intermediate members, as shown in Fig. 1.
The hollow rings 14 are also adapted to receive horizontal poles 22 when several garment racks are used side by side, the poles 22 extending through adjacent rings l4. Garments may be hung on the poles 22 thereby increasing the capacity of the racks.
Having thus described my invention what I 0 claim as new, is:
1. A multiple garment rack comprising in combination, an elongated wire loop adapted to fit over the outer end of a conventional garment hook, notches located on one side of said elongated loop, a slide partially surrounding the notched portion of said elongated loop, indentures located in that portion of said slide directly adjacent said notches, a hollow ring engaged in a round loop formed on the opposite end of said elongated loop, the said ring being provided with two annular grooves, one of said grooves being engaged in the said round loop, an intermediate hanger unit comprising a combined loop and hook end, the said loop of said combined loop 6 and hook member being adapted to partially encircle one of said grooves on said ring the lower end of said intermediate unit being bent around one of the grooves of a second ring, a bottom garment rack unit comprising a second loop and hook member engaged around one of said grooves on said second ring, a slide loop formed on the other end of said second loop and hook member, a vertical guide member adapted to guide said slide loop.
2. A multiple garment rack comprising a series of interconnected extension members and grooved rings, the said extension members having a closed loop on one end and a combined open loop and reversely curved hook on the other end, the closed loop of one extension member and the reversely curved hook of a second extension member adapted to swivel around the grooves of said rings, means for supporting the upper portion of said rack and anchoring the lower end of said rack.
3. A multiple garment rack comprising a series of interconnected members and swivel rings, the said interconnected members comprising extension portions of said rack being provided with a loop on one end and a combined loop and hook on the other end, the loop end of one extension portion and the combined loop and hook end of a
