Description
1950 J. PAPALEXIS ETAL 2,524,396
GARMENT HOLDER Filed May 16, 1946 Patented Oct. 3 1950 GARMENT HOLDER James Papalexis, Ashtabula, and Oliver Warren Johnson, Geneva, Ohio Application May 16, 1946, Serial No. 670,058
3 Claims.
This invention relates to that class of garment holders possessing both a vertical and angular movement of the operable elements while the frame thereof is rigidly attached to a supporting surface.
One of the objects of this invention is to retain the holding and two-way movement of the operable elements involved in our Patent No. 2,369,- 9'78 filed August 31, 1943, and patented February 20, 1945, and our pending application Serial No. 568,760 filed December 15, 1944, now U. S. Patent No. 2,420,263 dated May 6, 1947.
Another object is to simplify the form and construction of the hinge head formed by the pivotal junction of the C shaped or arcuate clamp and pintle bar of said holder.
Another object of the invention is to reduce the cost of manufacture and not adversely affect the dual movement of its working parts or efficiency in operation.
Another object of the invention is to so form the frame element or strap holding all parts, that both said frame and operable parts may be at-.
tached in supporting places limited for such attachment, such as the frames and legs of chairs in restaurants.
In the accompanying drawings are shown the preferred combination of parts to carry out the several objects of the invention, it being understood that various modifications of the parts and U material may be had without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
In the accompanying drawings the preferred embodiment of the invention is illustrated.
Fig. 1 shows a side view of the complete assembly, with the serrations-Id and 2d-being held in contact by the compression coil spring 5.
Fig. 2 shows a front view of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a plan view of Fig.
Fig. 4 is an enlarged view of serrations Id and 2d on hooks lo and 2?) respectively.
Fig. 5 is a side view of Fig. 4.
Fig. 6 is a plan view of Fig. 4.
This invention is composed of the following elements and their operative relation to each other.
A frame or strap 3 to which all parts are either directly or indirectly attached, is a modifiedl form of the frame 9 in Patent No. ,369,978, and the horizontal frame plate l8 of Patent No. 2,420,- 263 previously referred to.
Said frame 3 is adapted to be rigidly attached to a vertical supporting surface by means of screws through holes 3b in ears 3a and is also provided with a central vertical aperture 30 which is designed to pivotally engage part of the upper section of pintle bar 2 thereby providing the hinge whereby the angular movement of the pintle bar 2 may be had as one of the two movements referred to in the objectives.
Integral with the extreme upper section of pintle bar 2, is a right angled neck 20, and integrally attached to said neck is a vertically in-.
clined flange 2a, and pivotally attached to said flange 2:1, by hinge bolt 4, is a duplicating flange la, the latter being integral with the upper section of an arcuate clamp 1' formed like the letter C. This two flange (la, and 2a) combination is designed to form the vertical hinge movement of the holder and will be referred to as the hinge head. The pivotal connection of hinge bolt 4 on said hinge head, provides the hinge whereby clamp I may be manually raised and lowered, thereby providing the vertical movement heretofore mentioned as the other of the two movements referred to in the objectives of this invention.
In the middle section of clamp l is a notch lb designed to engage and rigidly hold the operating end 5a of a spiral tension spring '5. Said notch designed to prevent said spring end from slipping when said clamp is manually moved up and down, the other end 5b of said spring being rigidly anchored to pintle bar 2 adjacent to frame 3.
The lower section of clamp I is fashioned into a hook formation to whose upper outer surface or face is provided with a series of serrations Id adapted to operably contact a similar set of serrations 2cZ on the upper outer surface of a duplicating hook formation 2b integral with the lower section of pintle bar 2, thereby forming the gripping and holding ability of said hooks when very smooth and slippery articles are placed between them, such as the brim of a man's hat, or a patent leather pocketbook and similar articles.
In operation, the frame 3 of the holder is securely attached to a vertical supporting surface by screws through holes 32). Operator lifts clamp I, places the handle of a pocketbook, neckpiece or similar articles on the hooks 2b or llc, or, if the article is too large for such hooks, then it should be placed in the large parking space between bar 2 and clamp I then the operator releases the clamp l at which time spring 5 instantly forces clamp l down on such articles and securely holds same until released by the raising of said clamp I.
In case of parking articles that have no handles, straps or other means for holding them, and. they 3 are too big for said parking space, such as large patent-leather pocketbooks, satin or silk and similar slippery articles, the slight serrations Id and 201 on goosenecks lo and 2b are designed to clasp and securely hold such articles when placed between them.
Having thus described our invention, What We claim is:
1. A garment holder comprising a cylindrical bar formed as a vertical pintle bar terminating with a semi-circular hook in the lower end thereof, an arcuate member pivotally connected to the top of the bar, said member being formed with a similar semi-circular hook in the lower end thereof disposed in opposed relation to the hook in the bar, a spiral spring connected to the bar and the arcuate member urging the opposed faces of the hooks into abutting relation with each other, and a frame encompassing the pintle bar and constituting bracket means for the support of the holder.
2. A garment holder comprising a cylindrical bar formed as a vertical pintle bar terminating with a semi-circular hook in the lower end thereof, a vertical flange in the top of the bar having an opening therein, an arcuate member formed with a semi-circular hook in the lower end thereof disposed in opposed relation to the hook in the bar, vertically flanged end portion on said member having an opening therein, a hinge bolt in said openings pivotally connecting said bar and said arcuate member, a contractile spring connected to said bar and said arcuate member urging the faces of the hooks into abutting engagement with each other, and a strap pivotally 4 mounted on the vertical portion of said pintle above the spring.
3. A garment holder comprising a cylindrical bar formed as a vertical pintle bar terminating with a semi-circular hook in the lower end thereof, an arcuate member pivotally mounted on the top of said bar and formed with a semicircular hook in the lower end thereof disposed in opposed relation to the hook in the bar, the opposed faces of said hooks having serrations therein, a contractile spring connected to said bar and said arcuate member urging the serrated faces of the hooks into abutting engagement with each other, and a strap encircling a portion of the bar and constituting a bracket for the pivotal support of the holder.
