4 Claims.
(Granted under the act of March 3, 188 3, as
amended April 30, 1928; 370 0. G. 757) In military encampments it is customary to billet a number of soldiers in a single tent, with the result that space is at a premium and some means of orderly arrangement of the personal belongings of each individual is necessary to maintain orderly arrangement and neat appearance in the interior of the tent. The novel and improved clothes hanger support disclosed hereinafter has been particularly designed to cope with this situation and provide a novel and useful structure adapted to maintain the individual belongings of a number of individuals in neat and orderly fashion, and at the same time to be of simple, rugged and durable construction and adapted to economical and easy methods of manufacture.
It is therefore the principal object of this invention to provide a novel and useful clothes hanger support adapted to be attached to the center pole of a tent to provide separate and identical accommodations for hanging barracks bags, laundry bags, or the individual clothing of each of the several soldiers billeted in the tent.
A further object of the invention is to provide a clothes hanger support, as described above, wherein the support may be constructed of materials readily available in any locality without the necessity of utilizing any special or unusual metal shapes, clamps or castings.
A further object of the invention is to provide a clothes hanger support of the class described, wherein all of the several pieces of the clothes hanger may be instantly and easily dismantled and compactly bundled for shipping.
The above objects are accomplished in the present invention by providing a. pair of supporting rings on the center pole of the tent, with a plurality of clothes hanger bars projecting in radial directions from the lower ring. The
bars are preferably of ordinary round rod, having their inner end threaded to serve the double purpose of uniting the rod with the clamping ring and to clamp the ring to the tentpole while the outer end of the rod is supported by a length of flexible chain extending angularly upwardly to the upper ring. The rings are preferably formed by simply cutting short lengths from a piece of standard commercial pipe which is afterwards drilled and threaded at radial points of its circumference. The clothes bars comprise lengths of ordinary round cold-rolled steel rod, which are threaded on their inner ends to cooperate with the rings and are drilled on the outer extremities to facilitate their being supported by the chains.
Referring now more particularly to the drawings:
Fig. 1 is an elevational view of the clothes hanger support constructed in accordance with the teachings of this disclosure and shown attached to the center pole of the tent.
Fig. 2 is a plan view'of the device illustrated in Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a detail plan sectional view of the lower ring.
Fig. 4 is a fragmental detail view of the upper ring.
Fig. 5 is a fragmental detail view of the-lower ring.
Fig. 6 is a fragmental detail sectional view of a modified form of a hanger support rod.
The entire support assembly is arranged to be mounted on a vertical wooden tentpole I0 and consists, of a lower metal ring H of sufiicient diameter to loosely encircle the pole and of relatively narrow width.
The ring ll consists of a section of standard commercial pipe and-is drilled and threaded at a number of equally spaced points on its circumference in order that it maysupport a plurality of radial hanger support bars I3, each of which consists of a separate length of threeeighths inch cold-rolled steel rod threaded at the inner end to cooperate with the threaded openings on the ring H. The inner ends of each of the bars I3 is arranged to extend inwardly through ring H into clamping engagement with the tentpole ll]. At the outer extremity of. the rods 13, each of the rods is drilled to receive the one loop of a wire 8 hook in order to connect the outer end of each of the rods [3 with a length of chain I5 which extends upwardly toward the chain support ring I! and thus supports the outer ends of the rods I3.
The chain support ring l'l comprises a short section of commercial iron pipe similar to the hanger rod. support ring II and is also threaded at points on its circumference corresponding to the threaded holes in the ring ll so that it ay receive a plurality of clamping hooks l9 which are threaded to project through thewall of the pipe and engage in clamping relationship with the tentpole I0. Each of the clamping hooks is also provided with an S hook 2| to secure the upper end of the supporting chain l5.
From the foregoing it will be seen that inassembling the device the ringsv I! and II are positioned in proper spaced relationship with respect to the tentpole l0 and the threaded rods l3 and the threaded clamping hooks I 9 are tightened until the rings are rigidly secured to the tentpole. The chains I5 are then hooked between the S hooks 2| and [4 in order to support the outer ends of the rods l3 and give stability to the entire structure. The rods l3 may be used for supports for a number of individual clothes hangers, and a hook 23 is provided on each of the rods to support a barracks bag, duflle bag, laundry bag, etc.
Inasmuch as the rods I3 project radially from the tentpole, any desired number of rods may be used, but it is contemplated that the most satisfactory arrangement includes six or eight units so that each of the occupants of the tent may keep his own personal garments and barracks bag on one of the rods. Thus, the garments of each soldier will be kept separate and easily available, I
If desired, a modified form of rod, such as illustrated in Fig. 5, may be used, so that when not in use, the individual rods may be lifted upwardly into parallel relationship with the tentpole and thus out of the way of the occupants of the tent. To this end, a modified form of rod 25 is provided with a forked inner end 21 and a pivot pin 28, to be pivotally connected with the threaded mounting stud 29 which is threaded through the ring I! and clamps against the tentpole in the same manner as the inner end of the hanger support rods [3, heretofore described.
Further modification of the hanger supporting rods is illustrated in Fig. 2, where one of the straight rods l3 has been removed and the modified rod 3| inserted in the ring H. In this case the rod 3| is provided with a loop 32 adapted to surround and support the chimney of a Sibley stove so that it will keep the stovepipe away from the tentpole and also away from clothes hanging on the other rods of the device. It will be appreciated, of course, that this structure will be used only when the weather is such as to require the use of the stove and that during warm weather the rod 3| may be removed and straight rods, such as the rod l3, substituted.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new and desired to secure by Letters Patent, is:
