Definitions

  • ABSTRACT Device for hanging clothes comprising a hanging deformable wire structure with a central hook element of suspension and two arms carrying means to grip the clothes, by elasticity of the deformable wire structure, in which said means are mounted sliding on the arms of the device, along which they may translate with possibility to be locked on the arms themselves in any suitable selected position.
  • the present invention relates to an elastically expanding clothes hanging device, of the type comprising a hanging deformable structure of wire, shaped so as to provide at the two sides of a central hook element of suspension, two slanting branches diverging downward and extending into two arms pointing in opposite directions and lying on the same plane, said arms carrying means adapted to grip the clothes on corresponding opposite parts of the same.
  • the hanging device characterized in that the means adapted to grip the garments are mounted sliding on the arms of the device, along which they may translate with possibility to be locked on the arms themselves in any suitable selected position.
  • the said gripping means formed by fork or tongue elements, outwardly notched, are mounted by providing in the head of such means a transversal through hole for receiving the arm of the device and a longitudinal dead hole apt to house an outwardly threaded pin on which is screwed a wing nut, said pin having a transversal hole which also receives the arm of the device.
  • FIG. 1 is a general view of the device according to the invention.
  • FIG. 2 shows a device like that of FIG. 1, acting as trouser-hanger;
  • FIG. 3 shows in detail the mounting of the garments gripping means enlarged and with some parts in section
  • FIGS. 4 and 5 are front views of the gripping means, suitable respectively for the device of FIG. 2, acting as trouserhanger, and for similar device, acting as skirthanger.
  • the device according to the present invention comprises a structure in a single piece of elastically deformable wire, apt to be hanged, comprising a hook element 1 of suspension,
  • the garments gripping means 8 comprise a head 9, mounted onto the arms 6, 7, and actual gripping parts connected to the head and pointing downwards, said parts comprising, in the case of trouser-hangers (FIGS. 2 and 4), forks 10 having a notched outer edge (11), and in the case of skirthangers (FIGS. 3 and 5), a tongue or pin 12 also with a notched outer edge.
  • the head 9 of such elements comprises a solid body having a transversal through hole 13, into which penetrates, the arm 7 (or the arm 6) of the device.
  • the head 9 can slide along the said arm in both directions.
  • the solid body of the head 9 comprises also a longitudinal dead hole 14, which is apt to house a pin 15, projecting with its threaded end from the upper part of the head 9 and being provided, at its opposite end, with a transversal through hole 18 in which is inserted the arm 7 (or the arm 6) of the device, as clearly shown in FIG. 3.
  • the gripping means are completed by a wing nut 16 which screws onto the threaded part of the pin 15.
  • the head 9 is free to slide along the arm 7 (or the arm 6), and to be brought or arranged in the wanted position, in which it may be easily locked firmly by merely tightening the wing nut 16, which brings into contrast the various parts of the head 9 with the arm 7 (or the arm 6).
  • the invention provides sure and remarkable advantages in the field of clothes hangers. of the type involved, in that it allows to suitably choose the distance between the garments gripping means, according to the articles of clothing to be hung and to their size, and to adapt this distance to the size of the garments, so that such garments may be hung by imparting an elastic action sufficient to keep the garment safely suspended (and eventually, well stretched and. in shape), but not high to such an extent that it will damage the garment itself or that it will anyhow make its insertion in the device difficult.
  • a device for hanging clothes comprising a hanging deformable wire structure defining two slanting branches diverging downwardly and extending into two arms pointing in opposite directions which lie in the same plane and gripping means slidably mounted and lockable on each of said arms, each said gripping means comprising an element outwardly notched, a head attached to said element having a transverse through hole for receiving one of said arms and a longitudinal threaded dead hole, an outwardly threaded pin fitting within said dead hole having a transverse hole for receiving one of said arms and a winged nut threadably mounted on said threaded pin.
