COAT-HANG ER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 727,342, dated May 5, 1903.
Application filed May 28, 1902. Serial No. 109,317. (No model.)
all as hereinafter fully described, and especially pointed out in the claims; and the object of my improvement is to produce a strong, durable, light, and inexpensive coathanger, the yoke of which can be made of wood in a practical manner and so that it is not liable to break.
A further object of my invention consists in a construction which provides for a wooden yoke that is not cut out against the grain of the Wood to any appreciable extent or so as to weaken the same by such cutting. I also provide a firm connection between the yoke and hook in a simple and efficient manner, as will appear hereinafter.
I attain these objects by the means illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is a perspective view of my coathanger suspended from a wall-hook; Fig. 2, a side elevation of the top of the same, the hook being broken off; and Fig. 3, a crosssection on lines 3 3, Fig. 2.
Similar letters and figures refer to similar parts throughout the several views.
The device comprises a yoke a, preferably of wood, and a hook I), generally of wire. The yoke a consists of a comparatively thin center piece 5 and two wings 6. V The ,center piece 5 has fiat sides, by preference, adapted to receive advertising matter,-which may be printed, impressed, or otherwise displayed thereon, and such matter may also be placed on the wings 6, if desired. Each wing 6 is slotted at 7 to receive one end of the center piece 5, and the parts are held together with pins, glue, or in any suitable manner. The wings 6 are flattened and splayed laterally, the inner terminals, which join the center piece 5, being narrower than the outer ends. The top of each wing is convex, while the bottom is flat. A vertical hole 8 is made in the center of the piece 5.
It will be readily understood from the foregoing that the wings 6 can be turned out without cutting against the grain of the wood and that the same is true, only to a little less extent, .ofthe center piece 5. Moreover, the center piece is so short that it is not weakened materially by the required cutting against the grain.
At the base of the hook I) is a downwardlyextending part which has a slight inward bend or elbow 9, below which this part turns upward to enter the hole 8, into which it fits tightly. The base of the hook, including the elbow and the upstanding part which enters the center piece 5, may be termed the clip 0, and said clip constitutes a very simple and at the same time effectual means for uniting the yoke and hook, because when the aforesaid upstanding part is driven into the hole 8 the elbow 9 bears hard against the contiguous side of the center piece 5 and insures a strong connection which is not likely to be easily broken. The clip 0 may be driven into place by striking the bottom thereof with a hammer. Above the clip 0 the hook may assume any convenient or desirable shape, and I have shown it bent forward to clear the coatcollar when the device is in use and then turned over to one side to enable said device to be hung on a wall-hook.
This coat-hanger is used in the same manner as any ordinary device of a similar character, and a further explanation of such use is not deemed necessary in this specification.
I do not wish to be confined to the exact shape and form of the several parts or members beyond the limitations of the novel features herein describedand claimed.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. As a new article of manufacture, a coathanger comprisinga suitable hook and a substantially unyielding yoke consisting of a single center piece and wings internally slotted at their adjacent ends to receive the ends of said center piece.
2. As a new article of manufacture, acoathanger comprising a suitable hook and a substantially unyielding yoke consisting of a single center piece and two internally-slotted attached wings flattened and splayed laterally, substantially as shown.
3. As a new article of manufacture, a coathanger comprising a suitable hook and a sub- 5 stantially unyielding yoke consisting of a single center piece and wings internally slotted at their adjacent ends to receive the ends of said center piece, said wings being fiattened and splayed laterally, substantially as 10 shown.
15 side of the yoke.
5. A coat-hanger yoke comprising a comparatively thin center piece 5 and two Wings 6 internally slotted at 7 to receive the ends of said center piece, said yoke being substan, 2o tially rigid, as shown and described.
6. A wooden coat-hanger comprising a substantially unyielding yoke consisting of a comparatively short center piece and internally-slotted attached wings, the latter being cut out in the direction of the grain of the wood.
7. A coat-hanger hook provided at its base with a clip 0 having an elbow 9 and an up standing part, substantially as shown and described.
8. In combination, in a coat-hanger, a center piece 5 having a central hole therein, two wings 6 slotted at 7 to receive the ends of said center piece, and a hook provided with an upstanding part to enter said hole and an elbow 9 to bear against the outside of the center piece, as shown and described.
In testimony whereof I have signed this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
