PETER STEIGER, OF BALTIMORE, MARYLAND.

GARMENT-HANGER FOR WARDROBES, 80C.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 703,094, dated June 24-, 1902.

Application filed June 29,190].

To (LZZ whom it may concern:

Be it known that 1, PETER STEIGER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Baltimore, in the State of Maryland, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Garment-Hangers for \Vardrobes, Trunks, &c., of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to a new and useful means by which garments are conveniently hung, packed in, or removed from trunks, wardrobes, closets, &c.; and it consists of the following:

In the drawings, Figure 1 is a front view of a closet or wardrobe with doors opened, showing how one or more of the devices may be fixed therein. Fig. 2 is a section on line a; of Fig. 1, showing the carrier in dotted lines pulled out to the full extent. Fig. 3 is a view of a trunk or chest withthe lid open, showing the device therein. Fig. 4. is a longitudinal section of thedevice. Fig. 5 is a cross-section of Fig. 4 on line 3 y.

Like numerals refer to the same parts throughout the several views.

The tube or sleeve 7 is made fast to the top of the compartment by the straps 8 and 9. The rod 10 is held in place and fixed to the back of the wardrobe or closet by the small bracket 11. The rod 12 and the tube or sleeve 13 are threaded into the head 14. The casting 15 is permanently attached to the inner end of the tube 13 and slides loosely on the fixed tube 7 by means of the slot or hole 16. The garment-hangers 17 arehung on the tube 13 by the rings or hooks 18.

The sides of the trunk or wardrobe are provided with the notched strips 19 to receive the ends of the rods of the rack .21, which serves to economize space and keep the garments in a compact condition, thereby preventing them from becoming mussed or wrinkled.

In the operation the garment-carryin g part of the device is pulled out by the head 14, which serves as a handle, until the casting 15 comes in contact with the strap 9, which acts as a stop. \Vhen the device is in this position, garments can be quickly and conveniently placed on or removed from the hangers 17. The garment-carrier is placed in the normal or closed position by pushing same back until. the casting 15 comes in contact Serial No. 66,461. (No model.)

with the strap 8, which serves as aback-stop include as within the claims any modification thereof.
