What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

1. In a hose-supporter, the combination of a hanger from which extend downwardly hose-supporting members adapted to engage with hose, an attaching-loop pivotally connected to and movable in a plane parallel to the hanger and having an opening or aperture adapted to cooperate with a stud of a corset, said aperture being Wider at its lower portion than at its upper, and a locking-piece rigidly connected with the hanger and lying parallel with the loop in its operative position and terminating below the top of the loop, substantially as set forth.

2. In a hose-supporter, the combination of a hanger, a supporting member loosely attached thereto, and provided with hose-supports connected to said supporting member, an attaching-loop pivoted to the hanger and movable in a plane parallel therewith and having its opening or aperture tapered longitudinally from the pivoted end of the loop, and a locking-piece extending upward from the hanger and adapted to partially close the open ing of the loop when in operative position, whereby the loop may be locked and unlocked from a stud, substantially as set forth.

3. In a hose-supporter, the combination of a hanger, a supporting member loosely connected to the hanger, an attaching-loop pivoted to the hanger and having its opening or aperture tapered longitudinally from the pivoted end of the loop, and a locking-piece rigidly connected to the hanger and extending upwardly parallel with the loop when in its operative position and adapted to partially close the opening of the loop, one of the parts of the loop and locking-piece being concave and the other convex, upon their coinciding surfaces whereby they may engage and hold together when in locked position.

In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.

VICTOR GUINZBURG.
