Description
Patented Dec. 12, 1944 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE GARMENT HANGER Albert G; Wahl, Los Angeles, Calif.
Application February 25, 1944, Serial No. 523,819
(c1.'22sss) 5 Claims.
My invention relates to garment hangers of the general type disclosed in my copending ap plication for U. S. Letters Patent filed April 12, 1943, Ser. No. 482,727 and the principal objects of my present invention are, to generally improve upon and simplify the construction of the form of hanger disclosed in my aforesaid copending application, and to provide a hanger having readily adjustable members shaped and arranged so as to conveniently receive and suspend garments such as skirts, slacks and trousers.
A further object of my invention is to provide a garment hanger having adjustable garment receiving and suspending members formed of plastic material thereby minimizing production costs,
' With the foregoing and other objects in view,
my invention consists in certainnovel features of construction and arrangement of partswhich will be hereinafter more fully described and claimed and illustrated in the accompanying drawing in which:
Fig. 1 is a front elevational view of -my improved garment hanger. I
Fig. 2 is a plan view of the end portion of the hanger.
Fig. 3 is a perspective view of one of the adjustable garment engaging members of the hanger.
Fig. 4 is an enlarged cross section taken on the line 44 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 5 is an elevational view of a hanger having adjustable members particularly adapted to receive the waist band portions of the skirts.
Referring by numerals to the accompanying drawing, which illustrates a preferred embodiment of my invention, Ill designates a curved rail or bar which forms the body of the hanger and secured to the center thereof is an upward:
ly projecting hook Ia which is adapted to engage a rail or other support.
Mounted for independent longitudinal adjustment on the end portions of rail II], are the garment engaging and suspending members, each formed in a single piece, from plastics or the like and comprising a plate-like body II, a pair of hooks I2, a pair of ears I3 and a short arm or engaging members are formed is resilient to a certain degree and therefore the vertical portions of hooks I2, which are positioned against one of the side faces of the rail, engage the latter with sufficient friction to anchor the member after same has been adjusted length-on the rail.
Projecting at right angles from the ends of the plate II, below hooks I2 are integral ears I3 which extend beneath the rail to which the garment engaging member is applied, thereby cooperating with the hooks I2 in retaining said member in proper position on the rail.
A short arm or finger I4 projects outwardly from the inner end of each plate II, which arm is spaced apart fromthe rail I0 and formed in the upper edge of said arm are notches I5 adapted to receive the belt straps of suspended trousers on the hanger loops which are secured to the waist bands of skirts.
Inasmuch as the members II are readily adjustable upon the end portions of rail I0, trou- I sers and skirts of different sizes may be conveniently and properly suspended from the hanger.
In Fig. 5 I have shown a form of hanger adapted to receive skirts which may or may not be equipped with hanger loops and in this modified structure, an integral arm I6 projects outwardly from the lower portion of thebody Ila and said am having an outwardly and downwardly curved upper edge I! which receives the upper portion of the suspended skirt and the waist band thereof.
Coats, vests; jackets and the like may be suspended in the usual manner upon rail I0.
Thus it will be seen that I have provided a garmenthanger which is simple in structure, inexpensive of manufacture and very effective in performing the functions for which it is intended.
It will be understood that minor changes-in the size, form and construction of various parts of my improved garment hanger may be made and substituted for those herein shown and described without departing from the spirit of-the invention, the scope of which is set forth in the appended claims.
I claim as my invention:
1. In a garment hanger, a garment suspension member comprising a plate, a pair of hooks projecting laterally from the upper edge of said plate, ears projecting laterally from the ends of said plate below said hooks and a finger projecting from the lower portion of said plate outwardly in the same vertical plane therewith.
2. In a garment hanger, agarment suspension member as set forth in claim 1 and the upper edge of which finger is notched.
3. In a garment hanger, the combination with a rail, of garment suspension members mounted for independent adjustment on the end portions 4. The combination set forth in claim 3 and I of said rail, each member comprising a plate, the the upper edge of said finger being notched. upper portion of which bears against the side 5. The combination as set forth in claim 3 and face of said rail, rail engaging hooks projecting the upper edge of said'finger being curved outlaterally from the upper edge of said plate, ears 5 wardly and downwardly. projecting from the ends of said plate below I said rail and a finger projecting outwardly from v ALBERT G. WAHL.
the lower portion of said plate in the same vertical plane therewith,
