Description
Jan. 17, 1950 DlNKEN COAT AND TROUSER HANGER Filed Sept. 20, 1945 FIG. .5.
OOOOOOOOOO ATTORNEYS Patented Jan. 17,1950
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 2,494,648 COAT AND TEQUSER HANGER Jack M. Dinken, New York, N. Y.
Application September 20, 1945, Serial No. 617,472
An object of the invention is the provision of a hanger of the indicated character which may be used advantageously to support a coat and trousers in-such manner that the shape of the coats is preserved and air may circulate in side of the coat and through the material thereof.
A further object is the provision of a garment hanger embodying improvements whereby a garment is kept from slipping off the hanger.
A further object is the provision of a garment hanger embodying novel features of construction by virtue of which the hanger is sturdy and efiicient for the intended purposes.
The nature of the invention and its distinguishing features and advantages will appear when the following specification is read in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, 'in which:
Figure l is a front view of a garment hanger embodying the features of the present invention.
Figure 2 is a top view.
Figure 3 is a back view.
Figure 4 is an end view.
Figure 5 is an enlarged sectional view taken on the line 5-5 of Figure 1.
Referring more particularly to the drawings it will be apparent the hanger includes a main part Ill which is constructed to support a coat type of garment. The part I0, structurally, is of one piece, and is of such form that it may be molded of suitable plastic material. Said part l0 consists of a back section merging into a top section l2. The section H is curved from one side to the other side, or in other words it is arcuate lengthwise. The lower edge of the section II is scalloped in the present instance, but any other shape or contour may be adopted.
The top section I2 is curved forwardly and extends downwardly in -front of the section II part way of the latter. Said section 2 slopes at opposite sides of the vertical axis of the part 6 Claims. (01. 223-91) main part l0 transversely of the vertical axis thereof.
The hanger has a'suspension member in the form of a hook I5, which is secured to the top section l2. The hook I 5 may be engaged over a rod or other support in a clothes closet for obvious purposes.
In order to prevent a garmentsupported on the rod M from slipping ofi, there is provided a clamping member l6 complemental to the rod l4. The member l6 has a tubular shank [l which telescopically receives a tubular portion I 8 of the hook |5, .and is thus mounted on the part |8. Suitable spring pressed detents l9 are secured to the portion IS in registry with holes 20' respectively in said portion l8. The shank IT has indentations 2| therein providing cam surfaces which cooperate with the detents IS. 'A helical spring 22 is arrangedin the shank H with one end bearing on the hook portion I8 and the, otherend bearingonthe clamping'member l6. .J.
The provision and arrangement are such that the clamping member 5 is movable between a clamping position and an unclamping position. The member I6 is releasably held in its unclamping position by the detents l9 engaged in the indentations 2|. This is accomplished by merely sliding the clamping member I6 upwardly until the detents l9 engage themselves in the indentations 2|. By exerting a downward pull on the member Hi the detents become disengaged from the indentations 2|, there being a camming action of the surfaces of said indentations. The down pull on the member l6 causes the sloping sides of the recesses or indentations 2| to force the ball-shaped detents inward, and as soon as the detents are out of line with the indentations 2| the member I6 is free to move downward. This is supplemented by the action of the spring 22 which forces the member l6 into its clamping position with respect to the rod I4, and thereby clamping a garment, such as trousers, hung on the rod M. In this manner the trousers are kept from slipping off the rod. If desired, both the rod l4 and the member It may be roughened, as at 23, to prevent the garment from slipping from the rod M.
The construction of the main part Ill, and the arrangement of the rod l4 and clamping means enable a coat together with trousers to be suspended in such manner that the shape of the coat will be preserved, and air may circulate inside of the coat and through the material of the coat.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is:
1. A garment hanger having a transverse garment supporting member, a movable clamping member adjacent the supporting member to cooperate with the supporting member to retain the garment on the supporting member, the hanger carrying a part on which said clamping member is mounted, and detent ,means on :said part to hold the clamping member in a clamping position or in an unclamping position with respect to said supporting member, said clamping member having slidable engagement with said part to hold the garment or release same.
2. In a garment hanger, two garment supporting members connected with each other, aclamping member, means on one of the supporting members for mounting the clamping member ior sliding movement thereon between a clamping position and an unclamping position with respect to the other of said supporting members, and detent means rm said mounting means to hold the clamping member in clamping position to retain :a garment on the other supporting memher or to retain the clamping member in its unclamping position.
3. In a garment hanger, a main part bearing a garment supporting member, a suspension member ,on the main part for the hanger, a clamping member received by said suspension member .ctor up and down sliding movement between a clamping position and an unclamping position with respect to said supporting member, resilient means on said suspension member to more the clamping member into its clamping position on the supporting member, and means on said suspension member to releasably retain the clamping member in its clamping position to retain a garment on the supporting member,
or to retain the cl-amping member in its unclamping position.
4. In a garment hanger as set forth in claim 3, wherein said last means consists of detents on said suspension member and indentations on said clamping member which coact with said detents.
5. A garment hanger comprising a main part, a transverse suspension rod supported at its ends by said main part, a hook attached to the main part of the hanger, said hook having a portion, which extends towards said rod, a clamping mem-\ Lber having telescopic engagement with said por- 'tion, a spring engaging said clamping member and said portion to urge the clamping member *towards the suspension rod, and releasable means associated with said portion and said clamping member to cooperate with said spring to retain said member in operative position with respect REFERENCES CITED The following references are of record in the file of this patent:
