A TTORNE YS ERNST G. SMITH, OF COLUMBIA, PENNSYLVANIA.
CLOTHES-HANGER.
Speccation of Letters Patent.
Patented July 16, 1907.
Application filed November 26,1906. Serial No. 345,127.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ERNST G. SMITH, a citizen of the United States', residing at Columbia, in the county of Lancaster and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Clothes-Hanger, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to clothes hangers or holders of that general type employed in laundries for carrying collars, cuffs or other articles of apparel through the dry room. i
In the operation of these devices much difficulty has been experienced in constructing a holder which would hold the garments properly in place when subjected to the action of the hot air blast within the dry room, and yet, at the same time, be of such construction as to permit of the ready andv rapid hanging'of the clothes and stripping of the saine from the holder.
In carrying out the present invention, the principal object is to provide a holder of such nature that the articles may be hung thereon without using both hands, the holder being usually made double, and being of such construction that the attendant is free to use both hands in simultaneously placing the articles on the holder.
A further object of the invention is to provide a holder which will positively lock and will hold the articles in place when subjected to the action of the air blast.
A still further object of the invention is to provide a bolder from which the articles may be readily stripped, and which when stripped will be positively locked in open position.
With these and other objects in view, as will more fully hereinafter appear, the invention consists in certain novel features of construction and arrangement of parts, hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings, and particularly pointed out in the appended claims, it being understood that various changes in the form, proportions, size and minor detailsof the structure may be made without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages of the invention.
In the accompanying drawingsI-Figure 1 is a perspective view of a clothes holder constructed in accordance with the invention. Fig. 2 is a rear elevation of the same showing the holder in position` within its carrier. Fig. 3 is a side elevation showing the means for opening the holder and the stripper which serves also as a meansvfor moving the parts to open locked position. Fig. 4 is a view looking from the side opposite that shown in Fig. 3, showing the means for releasing the holder and allowing it to assume its closed locked position.
Similar numerals of reference are employed to indi-l cate corresponding parts throughout the several figures of the drawings.
The upper portion of the h older is made as usual, and includes a link member a, and a hanger bar b which carries a small shaft c on which are mounted wheels or disks d that travel in a track way e. a part of an endless link Vbelt which is engaged and driven by suitable sprocket wheels in order to carry the several clothes holders or hangers into and through the dryroom.
Depending from the link a is a hanger bar 10 carrying.
extending laterally from both sides of the arm 18 are additional arms 19 that are provided'with openings 2O adapted to receive the rear ends of the clothes hanging wires or arms 12. `The arm 18 is extended below the arms 19, forming a tongue 21 that is adapted to engage with a stripper bar 22, the latter being generally inthe form of approximately U-shaped bar, as will be seen on reference to Fig. 2, this stripper being usually located at a point outside the dry room. p
The hanger bar 10 is further provided with a pin 24 on which is mounted a locking lever 25. The rear end of this lever is extended rearward and downward and is provided with an inclined slot 26,- at the base or bottom of which are two notches 27 and 28 separated from each other by a small lug 30. When the bar 17 is entered in the notch 27, as indicated in Fig. 1, the guard arm 19 cannot move outward from the clothes hanging wires or arms 12, and thus forms a positive locking means which will prevent the articles of clothing from falling during the transit of the holders to the dry room. When the bar 17 is entered in the notch 28, as indicated in Fig. 4, the guard arms 19 will be positively locked in open position, so that the articles of clothing can be readily placed on the Wires or arms 12.
At a point slightly in advance of the stripper 22 is a roller 33 which is arranged to engage an arm 34 projecting from the upper end of the locking lever, and when the clothes holder arrives in the position shownin Fig. 3, this arm`34 will be engaged by the roller and will be moved to the position indicated, so that the bar 17 will be forced out of the notch 27, and at the same time the front wall of the slot 26 by bearing The link a forms' against the front face of the bar 17 will move the guard bars 19 outward to free the wires or arms 12. This operation occurs just slightly in advance of the completion' of the movement of the wires or arms 12 across the stripper, so that the holder will be moved to open position and the stripper may readily remove the articles of clothing from the Wire without danger of tearing.
As the parts continue to move in the direction indicated by the arrow in Fig. 3, the lower tongue will` come into engagement with the cross bar of the stripper, and the bar 17 will be forced upward slightly to such position that it will enter the notch 28, and then assuming the position indicated by dotted lines in Fig. 3 and full lines in Fig. 4. In this position it will be observed that the article carrying wires or arms l2 are perfectly free, and the articles may be placed thereon by using one hand only, as distinguished from devices oi the ordinary class where the attendant is compelled to use one hand to open the holder and the other to place the article of clothing in position thereon.
The articles of clothing are hung on the wires before the holder enters the dry room, and immediately after the article is placed in position, the arm 34 comes into contact with a second roller 40, and is slightly depressed, so that the rear end of the locking lever is elevated and the guard arms are free to fall by gravity to locked position. In moving toward this position, the bar 17 will engage with the iront Wall of the slot 26, and Will carry the locking lever down, this movement being assisted by the superior weight oi the rear oi the locking lever, so that the parts Will automatically assume the locked position indicated in Fig. 1, and will remain positively locked during the movement of the holder through the dry room.
The device possesses superior advantages in that it is positively locked in both open and closed positions, thus preventing the falling of any articles from the holder to the door of the dry room, and at the same time maintaining the holder when outside the dry room in such position that the attendant may use both hands and simultaneously attach two articles of clothing to each holder.
