Description
M. TREIMAN GARMENT HANGER Feb. 1, 1949.
Filed Dec. 13, 1947 through the hole in a washer 3i disposed with in the through slot is, and after the shank has been inserted to the full depth or its hole, ears 3%? are staked out from the shank below the washer 3!. These ears serve as looking projections, and engage the underside of the was or to prevent the shank from being pulled out of the hanger body i i, The purpose of :he through slot or aperture it, thus, is to provide space for the washer iii, and also to provide an opening to enable staking tools to get at the shank 3%.
With the hanger thus assembled, it will be seen that the hook it is free to rotate with respect to the hanger body ll, yet is prevented by the washer 3i and ears from being, pulled out of its opening. Inasmuch as the hole for reception of the shank of the hook i2 is formed merely by a series of interconnected, open slots which can be formed easily by using projecting lugs on the male and female dies in which the hanger body is molded, there is no need for u ing retractible cores which complicate the die construction and greatly increase the cost thereof. While I have shown and particularly described a plastic coat hanger in which the hole formed by the alined, oppositely facing slots is for the reception of the shank of a swiveled supporting hook, it will be appreciated that the same principle might be utilized with equal advantage to form holes for elements other than books. For example, horizontally extending holes might be formed in both ends of the hanger body to receive a horizontal rod or bar upon which trousers or slacks may be supported. Various other changes may be made the shape and arrangement of the several parts without departing from the scope of the claims appended hereto.
I claim:
ticaily disposed Si body alternately from opposite or said slots having an in' er n overlapping ....u slot. all in such manner in or poi tions cooperate to define r s section oi vertical hole extending dos. aid body from down into said hole, s in ing extending through and intersecting said arfl to bear on the top edge thereoi, and means for securing said asher to said hank, whereby the lat ter is prevented pulling out of hole. 2. A garment hanger comprising an elongated body having a relatively thin web with a flange extending around the edges thereof, a vertically disposed enlargement formed on said web at the midpoint of said body, a vertically disposed se ries of round-bottomed slots extending into said enlargement alternately from opposite sides thereof, each of said slots overlapping lateraliy to define the cross section of a cylindrical vertical hole extending down into said body through said enlargement from the top edge of said body, a hook having a shank extending down into said hole, said body having an opening extending through from one side to the other and intersecting said hole, and a washer mounted on said shank within said opening and adapted to bear on the top edge thereof, said shank having projections formed thereon below said washer to engage the latter and prevent the shank from pull me out of said hole.
3. A garment hanger comprising a hanger body having opposite sides and a top edge, a vertically disposed series of end-adjoining slots extending laterally into said body from the sides thereof, said series of slots beginning at the top edge of said body and. extending without interruption downwardly into said body to a predetermined depth, at least two of said slots being sunk into said. body from one side thereof and being separated by at least one intervening slot sunk into said body from the opposite side thereof, said two slots and said intervening slot having overlapping inner portions cooperating to define the cross-section of a hookshank-socket.
4. A garment hanger comprising a hanger body having opposite sides and a top edge, a, vertically disposed series of end-adjoining slots extending laterally into said body from the sides thereof, said series of slots beginning at the top edge of said body and extending without interruption downwardly into said body to a predetermined depth, at least two of said slots being sunk into said body from one side thereof and being separated by at least one intervening slot sunk into said body from the opposite side thereof, said two slots and said intervening slot having overlapping inner portions cooperating to define the cross-section of a hook-shank-socket, a hook hav ing a shank portion extending downwardly through said socket, and means on said shank portion engageable with said body at the inner end of one of said slots so as to prevent withdrawal of said shank from said socket. Y
5. A garment hanger comprising a hanger body having opposite sides and a top edge, two endadjoining slots sunk laterally into the sides of said body alternately from opposite sides thereof, the first of said slots openingthrough the top edge of said body, said slots having inner portions laterally overlapping and opening into one another, said body having immediately at the bottom edge of the lowermost of said slots, and opening thereinto, an aperture extending through the body from side to side, and an additional slot sunk laterally into said body below said aperture from the same side thereof as the uppermost of the aforementioned slots, said additional slot opening at the top edge thereof into said aperture, an inner portion of said additional slot being vertically aligned with and overlapping'said overlapping inner portionsof the aforementioned slots, a hook having a shank extending through the overlapping portions of said slots and through said aperture, and means on said hook shank within said aperture engageable with the body to prevent withdrawal of said shank from said body.
6. The method of molding a relatively flat garment hanger oody with a hole extending into the body from one edge thereof, that includes: forming the sides of said body during the molding thereof with a plurality of end-adjoining slots extending laterally into the body alternately from opposite sides thereof and to depths such that the inner portions of the slots extending from opposite sides of the body overlap and open into one another.
