HENRY E. FICKETT, OF BROOKLYN, NEW YORK. I
IMPROVYED CLOTHES AND HAT RACK.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 43,905, dated August 23, 18H4.
and Hat Rack; and I do declare the follow-- ing to be afnll, clear, and correct description ot' the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, making part of this speciiication, and to the letters ot' reference marked thereon, in which- Figure l is a view of my improved clothes and hat rack, showing the hooks turned in Fig. 2, a view of the same when hung in the corner of a room or wardrobe or -around a pillar; Fig. 3, a view ofthe same when the hooks are turned outward g Fig. 4, a view of my improved clothes and hat rack when folded.
In the drawings like parts of the invention are designated by the same letters of reference.
The nature of my invention consists iu combining the reversible hooks A with the adiustable rails Bin such a manner that the said hooks A shall serve to hold the rails B together, but also serve as pivots, upon which the rails may turn when desired.
To enable those skilled in the arts to make and use my invention, I will speak of its construction and operation.
A shows a series of hooks upon which the articles of clothing` or hats are to be hung when my improved rack is in use. These hooks A are provided with the square heads a and have a portion of metal directly below the head a cut away, corresponding to the thickness of the rails B at theirvpoint of jointure with each other, so that the hooksA may be inserted in the slots b of the rails B and be freely turned in the same. The heads d correspond in length to the slots b in the rails B.
B shows a series of rails, which rails B are slotted, as at b, to allow the heads a and upper portions ot' the hooks A to be inserted or passed through the same. These rails B may be of any desired length and are held together as hereinafter described.
C shows washers placed between the rails B and the heads a of the hooks A.
The rails B, being slotted, as previously stated, at their ends, are united by placing the slotted end of one rail directly over the slotted end of a second rail, placing the slotted washer C upon the top ofthe uppermost rail,
the slots being in line and passing or inserting the head a and upper portion of the hook A through lthe slots in the rails and washer.
Upon turning the hooks outwardly the heads a. are reversed in position and rest 'longitudinally immediately over the rails and Washer, keeping the rails locked together, and
at the same time forming pivots, upon which the rails may be turned freely when desired.
My improved rack, being thus constructed,
.may be hung upon a wall, within a wardrobe or closet, and, if desired, around a pillar or in the corner of a room, as shown in Fig. 2.
The advantages I would particularly claim for my invention are simplicity and economy of construction, portability, in that it may be folded into a very small space, and general convenience, as the hooks may hang outwardly or be turned either to the right hand or the left hand, and occupy a position beneath the rails, or may be turned at any desired angle.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim therein as new, and desirefto secure by Letters Patent, isv 'Ihe use or employment of the reversible hooks A, in combination with the rails B, when said hooks A shall be so constructed that they shall form pivots, upon which the rails B turn, for the purpose herein specified.
HENRY E. FIGKETT. In presence ot'- A. SIDNEY DOANE, NVM. HAGAR.
