(Cl. 2li- 104) 3- Claims.
hanging ties, andv more. particularly'. to a col- ;apsible tie rack` attachable to'- a supporting sur- BJC'S.
It is an objectv of the present invention to provifde a tie a` rack offsimple construction adapted for carrying alarge number' of ties, the ties being easily accessible for selection by the wearer at alli times.
Another object of the inventionis the provision of a tie rack which may be easily installed on a wall, the inside of a closet door or any other suitable supporting surface, the tie rack being collapsibfl'e inwardly toward'. said-1 supporting surface to occupy a minimum of space when not being actively used for the selection of ties.
A further object ofthe invention is the provision a tie rack of tli'e character indicated which may be fabricated from aI minimum number of parts at low cost.
v The foregoingobjects, as well? asadditionalobjects and advantages of the invention will be readily appa-rent in the course off the following detailed description taken in connection with the accompanying drawing which illustrates a preferred embodiment of the invention, and where- Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a tie rack embodying the features of the invention, mounted on a supporting surface, and shown in operative, eX- tended position.
Fig. 2 is a front elevational View of the tie rack.
Fig. 3 is a top plan View of the tie rack in its operative, extended position, the tie rack being swingable about a. pair of mounting lugs to a collapsed position of small compass, as indicated by the fragmentary broken outlines.
Fig. 4 is a side elevational view of the tie rack in operative, extended position.
Referring now to the drawing in greater detail, the tie rack comprises a pair of supporting members or bars it, each of which has a mounting lug i pivotally secured as by pivot pins I2 at the inner end thereof. Each mounting lug I I has an aperture I Id therein for securing the tie rack to a supporting surface as by means of screws I3. An outer longitudinal element or bar I4 is pivotally connected at the outer end of each supporting member IIJ extending between said pair of supporting members, and preferably disposed below said supporting member by a pair of spacers I5. A plurality of hanger pins IS is fixed to longitudinal element I4 and spaced therealong for hanging ties. Hanger pins I6 preferably extend 2, outwardly from said longitudinal element andr are turned upwardly' at' their free ends as at la', in order to accommodate a maximum number of ties, and eliminate' any possibility of the ties slipping off said hanger pins;
An inner longitudinal element I1 is pivotally supported by the pair of .supporti-ng members IU intermediate their ends, said inner element being preferably disposed above said supporting members by a pair of spacers I8. A plurality of spacing: pins I9 are xed along the top surface of longitudinal element IT to de'ne separate sections Iia therealong for hanging additional ties.
After the' tie rack has been mounted on a supporting surfaceW'by means ofscrews I3 passing through apertures Illa in mounting lugs II, ties may be hung not only alongthe inner longitudinal element Il, but additional ties may be suspended from hanger pins I6 of outer longitudinal element I4', as clearly illustrated in Fig. 1.
The disposition of inner longitudinal elementl I'I above supporting members iii and the disposition of outer longitudinal element t4 below' said supporting members contributes greatly to theeaSe of selecting aY particular tie by allowing rapid visual' inspectionk of the-ties on two different levels, a portion of the ties on the upper, inner longitudinal element I'I being clearly visible even when the hanger pins I6 of lower, outer longitudinal element I4 are lled to capacity with ties.
An important feature of the invention resides in the adaptability of the tie rack to be collapsed or swung inwardly toward the supporting surface W to lie Within a narrow compass thereagainst, and occupy a minimum of space when not being actively used for the selection of ties. Thus, by pushing against either end of the tie rack, as indicated by the arrows in Fig. 3, supporting members IU are caused to swing inwardly toward the supporting surface W about their respective pivotal connections I2 to mounting lugs II. The parallel inner and outer longitudinal elements I1 and I4 will simultaneously move inwardly toward supporting surface W, being swingably supported between said supporting members Ill. The ultimate collapsed position of supporting members I0, inner longitudinal element I l and the outer longitudinal element I4 will be substantially flat against the supporting surface W, being limited only by the thickness of the ties suspended from said inner longitudina1 element. An intermediate position of the tie rack in its inward displacement toward the supporting surface W is shown in fragmentary broken outline in Fig. 3. The tie rack may be easily converted from the co1- 3 lapsed position of narrow compass to the eX- tended position of Fig. 1, by pulling on outer longitudinal element M, in which latter position any particular tie or ties may be removed from or placed on the rack.
The tie rack may be fabricated from any metal or other suitable material at extremely low cost because of the simplicity of design and construction.
Since certain modifications may be made in the tie rack of the invention without departing from the scope thereof, it is intended that all matter contained in the foregoing description and shown in the accompanying drawing be interpreted merely as illustrative and not in a limiting sense.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is:
1. A collapsible tie rack for attachment to a supporting surface, said tie rack comprising a pair of spaced supporting members, a mounting lug pivotally secured to each of said supporting members at the inner end thereof, an outer longitudinal element swingably mounted for horizontal movement on said supporting members at the outer ends thereof, said element having a plurality of hanger pins spaced therealong, and an inner longitudinal element independently pivotally mounted on said supporting members intermediate their ends for horizontal movement thereon, said inner longitudinal element having a plurality of spacing pins secured along the upper surface thereof.
2. A collapsible tie rack for attachment to a supporting surface, said tie rack comprising a pair of spaced supporting members, a mounting lug pivotally secured to each of said supporting members at the inner end thereof, an outer longitudinal element swingably mounted on said supporting members at the outer ends thereof, spacer members interposed between said supporting members and said outer element to dispose said outer element below said supporting members, said outer element having a plurality of hanger pins spaced therealong, and an inner longitudinal element swingably mounted on said supporting members intermediate their ends, said inner longitudinal element having a plurality of spacing pins secured along the upper surface thereof, all constructed and arranged so that said pair of supporting members and said inner and outer longitudinal elements may be swung inwardly toward said supporting surface.
3. A collapsible tie rack for attachment to a supporting surface, said tie rack comprising a pair of spaced supporting members, a mounting lug pivotally secured to each of said supporting members at the inner end thereof, an outer longitudinal element swingably mounted on said supporting members at the outer ends thereof, spacer members interposed between said supporting members and said outer element to dispose said outer element below said supporting members, said outer element having a plurality of hanger pins spaced therealong, an inner longitudinal element swingably mounted on said supporting members intermediate their ends, spacer members interposed between said supporting members and said inner element to dispose said inner element above said supporting members, said inner element having a plurality of vspacing pins secured along the upper surface thereof, all constructed and arranged so that said pair of supporting members and said inner and outer longitudinal elements may be swung inwardly toward said supporting surface.
