CLOTHES-HANGER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May 2e, 1908.
Application led November 18, 1907. Serial No. 402,595.
To all 'whom 'tt may concern:
Be it known that I, CHARLES COOK, a citizen of the United States, residing at New Britain, in the county of Hartford and State of Connecticut, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Clothes-Hangers, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in clothes hangers, and the objects of my improvement are to provide cheap and convenient means for protecting the clothes on the hanger, and to so construct the same that the complete hanger may be compactly folded.
In the accompanying drawing: Figure 1 is a broken front elevation of my hanger with the protecting curtains partly in position for use and partly drawn together. Fig. 2 is a plan view of the same. Fig. 3 is an end View of the same, as viewed from the left hand end of Figs. 1 and 2. Fig. 4 is a front elevation of the same, less the curtains, and-with the parts folded into a compact form, a portion of the frame being shown in broken out sec` tion.
`A, designates a rectangular frame composed of top and bottom rails or strips 5, 6, and uprights or cross pieces 7. Between the rails 5 and 6, a series of swinging clothes `hooks 8 are hung on trunnions 9, Fig. 4. The upper rail 5 is provided with suitable eyes 10, by which to hang the frame upon a wall or other suitable support. The parts thus far described are older than my invention.
I provide a swingingbail 11 substantially as long as the frame, and of a width to extend forward considerably beyond the outer ends of the clothes hooks 8. This bail is hung by its ends in the hinge lugs 12 which are secured to the said upper rail as shown. I also provide a shorter and narrower bail for use as a curtain rod or hanger 13 and this I secure in place on the frame by hinge lugs 14 secured to the said upper rail. At the middle of the frame is a post 15, hinged to the frame by lugs 16, and from the said post a swinging bracket 17 extends, the said bracket being as long as the widest bail is wide and provided with notched seats 18 at its upper edge mounted on the lesser bail or curtain rod 13,
with the body of said rod running through the said shirrs in the ordinary manner of curtains rods and shirrs.
When the bail and rod are supported on the bracket, the curtains may be drawn out and supported in position so as to cover the front and ends of the hanger and the clothes hung thereon, as the curtain is drawn at the right hand end of Figs. 1 to 3. Of course they can be pushed or drawn to either side in order to gain access to the clothes on the hanger, or to hang clothes thereon. For folding into a compact form the bails or bail and rod may be lifted slightly and then folded down against the front of the frame while the bracket may be folded up against the frame by swinging to one side as shown in Fig. 4. The clothes .hooks may also be turned to one side in the ordinary manner.
I claim as my invention:
1. A clothes hanger comprising a frame and hooks, a curtain rod mounted on the said frame, curtains mounted on the said rod, a swinging bail mounted on and hinged to the said frame for being extended underneath the said curtains forwardly of the said curtain rod and supporting the curtains in position, and a swinging bracket mounted on the said frame for supporting the said bail in its supporting position.
2. A clothes hanger comprising a `frame and hooks, a curtain rod in the form of a swinging bail hinged on the said frame, curtains mounted on the said rod, a swinging bail hinged to the said frame for supporting the curtains in position and a swinging bracket mounted on the said frame for supporting the said rod and bail in position.
CHARLES COOK.
