3'Claims. 1.
My invention relates to clothes hangers and more: particularly to clothes hangers adapted to supporta coat, a vest and trousers.
The object of my invention is to provide a clothes hanger of the character indicated above and adapted to'pr'event trousers supported thereby from sliding off the hanger without the use of any clamping means.-
Other objects of my invention may appear in thefollowing specification describing my invention with reference to the accompanying drawing illustrating some preferred embodiments of my invention. 1
It is to be understood; however, that my invention is not to be limited or restricted to the exact construction and combination of parts described in the specification and shown in the drawing, but that such changes and modifications can be made, which fall within the scope of the claims appended hereto.
In the drawing: I
Figure 1 is an elevational front view of the clothes hanger according to my invention.
Figure 2 is an elevational end View of the clothes hanger shown in Figure 1, a pair of trousers hanging on the hanger being shown fragmentarily.
Figure 3 is a front view of Figure 2.
Figure 4 is an elevational front view of a modified form of the clothes hanger shown in Figure 1, and
Figure 5 is an elevational front view of another modified form of the clothes hanger according to my invention.
Referring now in detail to the drawing the clothes hanger forming the subject matter of my invention is preferably made from one continuous piece of strong wire.
The wire starts with a short straight portion l0 extending horizontally to the right ending in a sharp upwardly curved portion II. From this a shoulder piece l2 extends in a shallow curve toward the left. On the end of this shoulder piece the wire is doubled upon itself, twisted to form an upwardly extending neck [3 and a hook M, which is open on its left end, so that it can be suspended on a rod or the like in a clothes closet.
From the neck l3 the wire extends in a shallow downward curve to the left to form a second shoulder piece ending in a sharp curve [6 connecting the second shoulder piece I5 with a horizontal extending portion l1 extending horizontally toward right. This straight wire portion ends in a sharp curve l8, located a short 2 distance below the short straight wire portion l0 and continuing'in a second horizontal por; tion l9 extending horizontally toward the left somewhat beyondthe center of the horizontal extending portion ll and a short distance below thiswire portion.
The two shouldr'pieces l2 and I5 serve the purpose to support a vest and a coat. A pair o'f trousers 20 'is foldedove'r approximately at knee length'and slipped onto the horizontal extend ing portion i'i', so that the lower and shorter second horizontal portion [9 contacts the trousers 25 on the outside and prevents them from slip ping from'thehoriz'ontal extending portion l1.
If desired the clothes h'angercan be'formedto support more than one pair of trousers. In that case, the sharp downward curve I8 connects the horizontal extending portion I! with another straight wire portion 2| ending on its left end in another sharp downward curve 22 continuing horizontally toward the right in a third straight wire portion 23. This may be continued as often as desired to form five, six or more trouser supporting straight Wire portions. The last straight Wire portion 24 is shorter, similar to the wire portion I9 described above and the trousers are placed and secured on the several trouser supporting straight wire portions, 2|, 23, etc. as described above.
In Figure 5 another modified form of the clothes hanger according to my invention is shown. This form is similar to the form shown in Figure 4, but each additional trouser support consists in this case of two strands of wire 2H and Zl 23 and 23* etc., arranged so close to each other, that the two strands of each trouser support exert enough friction on the trousers placed between them to prevent accidental removal of said trousers. Each additional trouser support is connected with the support above by a curved wire portion 22 While the clothes hanger forming the subject matter of my invention has been described as being made from wire, it is to be understood, that it may be formed and made from plastic or any other suitable material.
Having described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent:
1. As a new article of manufacture, a clothes hanger fabricated solely of a single continuous piece of material, and comprising a bow-shaped portion adapted to support a vest and coat and having one end portion inturned, a horizontal extending portion adapted to support trousersthereon arranged in the same plane as said bowshaped portion and secured to the other end of said bow portion, the opposite end portion of said horizontal portion being spaced from the inturned end portion of said bow portion and bent upon itself so as to terminate in a second,
from each other, the second and further hori- V zontal portions all lyin in the same plane as said first-named horizontal portion.
2. As a new article of manufacture, a clothes hanger fabricated solely of a single continuous piece of material, and comprising a bow-shaped portion adapted to support a vest and coat and having one end portion inturned, a horizontal extending portion adapted to support trousers thereon arranged in the same plane as said bowshaped portion and secured to the other end of said bow portion, the opposite end portion of said horizontal portion being spaced from the inturned end portion of said bow portion and bent upon itself so as to terminate in a second horizontal portion of a length less than the firstnamed horizontal portion, and spaced from the latter, there being intermediate the first-named ther horizontal portions all lying in the same plane as said first-named horizontal portion,
every other portion of said plurality of horizontal portions being arranged in close proximity to the adjacent horizontal portion and adapted to frictionally engage a pair of trousers thereon 3. As a new article of manufacture, a clothes hanger fabricated solely of a single continuous piece of material, and comprising a bow shaped portion adapted to support a vest and coat and having one end portion inturned, a plurality of horizontal extending portions adapted to support trousers thereon arranged in the same plane as said bow shaped portion and having one end secured to the other end of said bow portion, the other end portion of said horizontal portions being spaced from the inturned end portion of said bow portion and bent upon itself so as to terminate in a second horizontal portion of a length less than the first named horizontal portions and spaced from the latter, the second horizontal portion lying in the same plane as said first named horizontal portions.
