UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JAMES R. LEWIS, OF NEW MADRID, MISSOURI.
MERCHANDISE-SUPPORTING HOOK.
' SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 505,837, dated October 3, 1893.
Application filed October 19, 1892. Serial No. 449,362- model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that 1, JAMES R. LEWIS, a citizen of the United States, residing at New Madrid, in the county of New Madrid and State of Missouri, have invented a new and useful Hook for Merchandise, of which the following is a specification.
The invention relates to improvements in merchandise supporting hooks for hangers and racks.
The object of the present invention is to provide an eflicient supporting hook designed to be used in connection with hangers or racks for supporting stock from the ceiling [5 of stores, ware rooms, and the like, and
adapted to permit the bails of buckets, kettles, and similar vessels to be readily engaged and disengaged from it, and capable of holding them securely against any accidental dis- 2o engagement.
. The invention consists in the construction and novel combination and arrangement of parts hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings, and pointed 2 5 out in the claims hereto appended.
In the drawings-Figure l is an elevation of a rack or hanger provided with merchandise supporting hooks embodying the invention. Fig. 2 is a detail perspective view of one of the hooks detached.
Like numerals of reference indicate corresponding parts in both figures of the drawings.
1 designates a merchandise supporting hook, designed to be connected with and arranged on a hanger 2 and adapted to receive the bails or handles of various articles of tin ware and the like, to enable such articles to be readily suspended from the ceiling of a store, ware house, or other similar place. The hook 1 is approximately triangular and is provided at its apex with a spring coil 3; and it has its base composed of two curved separable sections 4 provided with curving divergent arms 5 which form a flaring outer mouth to enable a bail or handle to be readily inserted between the sections to enter the hook. The arms 5, which are adapted to form convenient handles to enable the sides of the hook to be separated, diverge inward slightly beyond their point of contact to provide an innerv flaring mouth to enable the handle or hail of a vessel to be readily dis engaged from the hook by an outward pull, when desired. The handle or hail of a pail, cup, pot, or other vessel, is adapted to rest in and be supported by the curved depressed portions of the sections 4 of the base, whereby it is prevented from accidentally falling out of the hook or becoming disengaged therefrom. The spring coil 3 at the apex of the hook is linked into the eye of a suspension hook 6, whereby the supporting hook may be readily suspended from the hanger or rack at i the desired point.
The hanger or rack consists of an approximately rectangularframe suspended from a ceiling by hooks 7, and consisting preferably of upper and lower parallel rods 8 and 9 and end pieces 10. At intervals the hanger or rack is supported by vertical braces ll extending from the top to the bottom of the frame.
It will be apparent that the merchandise supporting hook is simple and comparatively inexpensive in construction, that it is especially adapted for supporting tin ware agd similar merchandise from the ceiling of a room, that it is capable of securely holding the bail or handle of such an article of mer- 8o chandise against accidental displacement, and that, owing to the inner and outer flaring mouths such a bail or handle may be readily engaged with or disengaged from it.
Changes in the form, proportion and minor 8 details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages of this invention.
Having described my invention, what I claim is 1. An approximately triangular merchandise supporting hook having its base composed of two curved separable sections, provided adjacent to the sides of the hook with depressed portions for supporting a bail or 5 handle, and having at their adjacent ends depending divergent arms, substantially as and for the purpose described.
2. An approximately triangular merchandise supporting hook provided at its apex zoo with a spring coil, and having its base com- In testimony that I claim the foregoing as posed of two curved sections provided adjamy own I havehereto affixedmy signature in re cent to the sides of the hook with depressed the presence of two witnesses.
portions and having at their adjacent ends 5 depending curved arms bearing against each LEWID other and diverging above and below such Witnesses: point of contact to provide inner and outer M. J. OORWIN, J r.,
flaring mouths, substantially as described. W. G. NEWsUM.
