2 Claims. 01. 223-41) This invention relates to garment hangers, and has for its object to provide a comparatively simple and relatively inexpensive hanger of this character which forms the dual function of a coat and vest hanger and also serves as a means for hanging the trousers by their upper ends and for preventing wrinkling or creasing thereof.
One of the prime objects of the invention is to provide a coat and trouser hanger to which trousers may be readily and easily attached, and which separably secures them in upright position, so that loose change, keys and other articles will not fall from the pockets.
A further object is to provide a garment hanger of the character described, and provide readily releasable latch member detachably mounted thereon for securing the trousers or other garment in position.
Still a further object is to provide a hanger device of simple construction, which can be readily manufactured and assembled, and which is very convenient for use.
A further object still is to design a hanger provided with slotted sockets therein to permit the easy mounting and/or removal of the latching means if and when desired.
With the above and other objects in view, the present invention consists in the combination and arrangement of parts, hereinafter more fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawing, and more particularly pointed out in the appended claims, it being understood that changes may be made in the form, size, proportion, and minor details of construction, without departing from the spirit, or sacrificing any of the advantages of the invention.
In the drawings:
Fig. 1 is a front-elevational view showing my improved hanger, with a pair of trousers clamped in position thereon.
Fig. 2 is an enlarged, edge-elevational view, the solid lines showing the latches swung down to locked position, the broken lines showing the latches swung up.
Fig. 3 is an enlarged, fragmentary, perspective view illustrating the mounting of the brackets.
Fig. 4 is a fragmentary, transverse-sectional elevation view.
Fig. 5 is a sectional, edge-elevational view through one of the brackets and latch arms.
Referring now more specifically to the drawing in which I have shown the preferred embodiment of my invention, the numeral 5 indicates the hanger proper which can be formed of plastic, metal, wood or any other desired material. This hanger is shaped similar to the conventional coat hanger at present on the market, having a centrally disposed suspension hook 6 on the upper end thereof for hooking over a nail or other suitable support, (not shown).
In the instant application I have shown the hanger body formed of plastic with spaced-apart sockets 1 formed in the front face thereof, which sockets are of a size to releasably accommodate the downwardly turned leg 8 of a preferably stamped bracket B, the forwardly projecting portion It of which is preferably tubular in shape and a curved latch arm II is hingedly connected thereto as shown, said bracket having an inwardly bent looped saddle member I2 formed integral therewith and for a purpose to be presently described.
The latch arm H is also tubular in shape and is formed with open crotch-shaped sections l3 engagable with the bearing sections Ill of the member l2, these sections forming bearings for the latch arms.
A coil spring I5 is anchored to the saddle section l2 of the bracket 13 and to the latch arm II at the point ll, so that each latch arm will be resiliently held in either raised or clamping position. The free end of the latch II is bifurcated as shown, and a preferably resilient member I8 is secured thereto by means of a pin Hi to eliminate noise etc. I
An upturned stop 20 is formed integral with the latch arm II and serves to limit the upward travel thereof and as clearly shown in broken lines in Fig. 2 of the drawing.
When it is desired to attach a pair of trousers T in position on the hanger, the user merely grips the waist band of the trousers with both hands, places it against the flat sections 2| of the latch arms H, and these latch members are tripped, swinging down to position shown in solid lines in Figs. 1 and 2 of the drawing, thus holding the garment securely in position. It is not necessary to remove the belt and the hanging is simple and easy.
Should it for any reason be desired to use the device as a coat hanger only, the brackets B are merely raised to free the legs 8 from the sockets I and the frame 5 can then be used as a coat and vest hanger.
From the foregoing description, it will be obvious that I have perfected a very simple, practical and convenient garment hanger for hanging coats, trousers, or other articles of wearing ap-. parel.
3 What I claim is: 1. A suit hanger including in combination, a
supporting frame, spaced-apart sockets in the face thereof and adapted to releasably accommodate a bracket, a latch member hingedly secured at a point intermediate its length to each bracket for engagement with the frame to secure a garment between said resilient member and said frame and provided with a resilient member on.
the free lower; end; thereof, a stop? on each latchw'lo member and engageable with the bracket when in raised position for limiting the upward swing oi the latch, and a spring connected to the bracket and latch member respectively for tensioninga said latch members.
2. A coat and trouser hanger including in combination, a supporting frame for arqoatbhmeknelti RAY PATRICK.
