Patented May 2, 1944 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE ruzclr'rmI HANGER Maurice E. Lessin, Bronx, N. Y.
Application August 31, 1943, Serial No. 500,685
(ci. 211-7)` I 8 Claims.
ployed in the household to the end that the hanger may accommodate large numbers of neckties, yet be susceptible of folding compactly and neatly into an unobtrusive position against a wall or other support.
' Another object of the invention resides in providing an improved necktie hanger and coordinate enclosing and operating frame capable of an enfolded position of storage for the necktie, and movable to an outward displaying position where the neckties are revealed openly and in a single line, where all of the neckties may be viewed and inspected, with reference to one another, to the end that a proper color selection may be madefor the purpose of matching suits and other garments.
A further object of the invention is to provide a combined support, foldable necktie hanger and operating member, so constructed and arranged, and so related that the support sustains both the necktie hanger and the operating member, and the latter is coupled to the necktie hanger in a manner to draw the hanger outwardly to extended position on the outward swinging movement of such operating member with reference to the support.
A still further object of the invention is to so construct and arrange and relate a support, necktie hanger, and its operating member, that the operating member willoutstand from the support in a manner to afford an enclosing space into which the necktie hanger may nest and 1 taining abilities of the hanger bars, to increase the capacities of the hangers, to enhance the appearance of such articles, and to condense the same in overall structure to t in cramped spaces heretofore unavailable for such purposes.
With the foregoing and other objects in view,
which will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, the invention will be more fullyfdescribed hereinafter and more particularly pointed out in the appended claims.
In the drawing, in which like reference char- Amutually offset lug 23 acters designate like parts throughout the several views: Y
Figure `1 is a front elevation of an improved necktie hanger constructed in accordance with the present invention;
Figure 2 is a top plan view of the same, showing in full lines the folded position, and in dotted linesthe extended position of the improved hanger and its operating and imposing member;
Figure 3 is a vertical longitudinal section taken through the improved hanger and its operating member along the line 3-3 in Figure 2; Vand Y Figure 4 is a horizontal section taken on the line 4-4 in Figure 1, on an enlarged scale.
Referring more particularly to the drawing, which shows one embodiment of which theinvention is susceptible, W indicates a wall to which may be attached the support II in any suitable ffor'm, for instance a bar, plate or the'like.
The operating and enclosingmember is designated generally I0, the same being pivoted at one endV portion, as indicated at I2, toan end portion of the plate I I. Such support I I has also at its end portions, perforated lugs I3 and I4 through which screws 3U or other fastenin means pass, for entering the wall W. Y 1
The necktie'hanger is, Ain the instance illustrated, composed of two mem'bers or sections I5 and IB, which may be in the form of bars of metal, wood or other appropriatematerial having upstanding pins I'I and lspa'ced appropriate distances in pairs to confine therebetween intermediate portions of the ties T, as indicated in broken lines in Figure 3.
The tie bars I5 and I6 are mutually pivoted at I9 for swinging outlinto the dotted line position shown in Figure 2.` 'Ihe other end of the 'outer tie bar I5 isY pivoted, asat' 20,' to a hinge member 20a carried-bythe voperating memberV I Il.
Associa'ted with this hinge member AZlla is a knob or handle Illa on the operation member IU, 'for convenience in' graspingl thisA member and drawing the same outwardly to the dotted position shown vin Figure 2 and for moving the same back to the full line collapsed position. o
The right hand end of the inner tie bar I6 is pivotedat 2l to the hinge or pintlemember 2m, screw threaded or otherwise xed to the supporting or backing bar II. Arresilient keeper 22 on the free end ofthe operating member. I!)
yhas an oifset portion' 3| for snapping back of 'a carried by the supporting memberII. .n g y As shown in Figure 2,the operating member I0 is shown in full lines in substantial parallelism with the base or support I I and with the two bars I5 and I6, making up the necktie hanger; however this operating member I is spaced sufciently in front of the support I I to provide ample accommodation for the enfolded tie hanger bars I and I6. structurally, this arrangement is achieved by the fact that the pivot or hinge I2 is mounted between a forwardly offset lug 32 of the support II andan inturned end portion 33 of the operating member I0. These Ytwo oisets 32 and 33 set off or displace the axis or fulcrum of the hinge pintle` I2 from the planes of both members Ill and II whereby the member Il] outstands from the member I I for the purpose of providing ample space between the members for containing the tie bars I5 and I6, and for the additional purpose of freeing the hinge I2 for clearance in the pivotal movement of the member I0, and particularly for the clearance of the oiTset portion 33 thereof, for which comparethe full and the dotted line portions of the member I6 infFigurefZ.
At the free end of the member I0the-catch or Y latch 22 forms a complement of the offsets 32, 33 in that its inner end formsa stop cooperating with the support II to limit the vinward swinging movement of the operating member I'Il beyond a point Where the tiebars I5 and I6 reach a fully collapsed position, to prevent these tie bars from moving so far together as to crush the ties one upon another, or upon the bars themselves. Thus the latch 22 performs a double function, that of a keeper and stop member. This latch member may be `made of rigid material if desired, in lwhich case the keeper 23 will possessrsome degree ofresiliency, toenable lit to give, when `the operating member III is pushed home l Y In order to retain the tie hanging membersv I5 and I6 in substantial parallel relation when collapsed, with suilicient spacing therebetween to avoid crushing the ties and-to vpermit the Vties to hang independently of one another, the lefthand ends of each of such bars I5 and I6 areoflset mutually toward one another so that the axis of the pintle hinge I9 lies in the extended plane which passes between the two membersIS and I6. The other ends 20 and 2| are prevented from movement together by the Vstop action ofr the latch 22. Y
By placingv the handle or knob Ia at the free end ofthe operating member I, the arrangement gives greater leverage in theoperationand also enables a single escutcheon plate 34 to mask the threaded shanks of both members lila andY In operation, thehandle or knobA Illa is grasped and forcibly pulled 'outwardly away from the support II, which will thus act to cause .release of the latch members 22 andf23. The continued outward swinging movement ofthe operating member IIJ about its hinge I2 will act to draw out the hinge member 20a and the entrained end 20 of the tie bar I5. This membery `I5 may rst rotate about the pintle I9, but the difference in disstance or displacement of hinges I2 and I9 will cause the operating member I0 at a certain angular displacement of its opening movement, to pick up `the tie bar I6 and rotate it Aabout its hinge pintle 2i. Thepintle 2l being stationary, and the pivots I9` and 20'be`ing movable, by move,-
` mentsof translation, the' two members I5 and I6 of the ,hanger may be drawn out to the broken line position shown in Figure 2. 'l
, These hitherto ,parallel members I 5 and I6 now Y of said operating member.`
extend in a straight line and form the hypotenuse of a triangle, of which the members I and II form the other two sides. Moreover, the right line or straightJ line rearrangement of tie sustaining bars I5 and I6 constitutes a toggle lock, in that pivots I9, 2l! and 2I are all in the same line. Such toggle lock will prevent the device from casual or accidental collapse as the ties will be Viewed from the outside of the tie hanger and the action of the user in removing and replacing the necktieswill be apt to collapse the device. The ties will be simply draped over the bars I5 and I5 between pairs of the upstanding pegs or pins il and I3. In this way a large number of ties of different colors and assortments may be brought simultaneously into view over the length of the comparatively long hanger, in that the hypotenuse is the longest side of the right angle triangle. Moreover, where the hanger is constituted of a single straight line bar, ease is promoted .in the placing and removal of ties, and one tie bers 22 and 23 may be caused to reengage one another. The member I0 provides not only an operating member but also an enclosing member for the bars. Of course the lower portions of the ties Ymay or will project below this enclosed space. The front face of the member IB may be embellished .in any suitable manner or may be made to conform to'any desired design or ornamental, characteristics, blending in with that of other 4furniture or furnishings.
