' 55 a r in STATES PATENT OFFICE HAT-HOLDER.
To all whom it may concern:
Beit known that I, WILLIAM T. TRUITT, a cit zen of the United States, residing at New York city,
5 Stateof New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Hart- 0 ders, of which the following is a speci- I fication. 1
This invention relatesto the subject of 1 store furniture, and more particularly to those typesof display fixtures utilized particularly as hat holders for the display of milliner I I To this end the invention articularly redates to a hat holder es ecially designed for ho ding womens hats fbr display purposes, and onaof the pritlci :11 objects of the invention is to provide a holder that will have a firm en agement with its support, yet may .be rea ily adjusted thereon or removed therefrom, and which may be readil shaped "to permit of the hats being viewed at. different angles. Y
In carrying out the objects of the inveng5 tion generally stated above, it will, of course, understood that the essential features 1 "thereof are susce tible of structural changes,
' certain referred? and practical embodiments of'whic are shown in the accompanying 3o drawings, wherein: p
. Figure 1 is a perspective view of two hat holders showing the same in engagementwith their support, one of said holders being bent a different angle from the other. Fig. 2 is a transverse sectional view taken on the line'f.-22, Fi 1 showing the engagement between the ait holder and its support. Fig. IB is a 'detail pers ective view of a slifililily modified form 0 hat holder. 40
e references designate corresponding parts in the several figures of the drawings.
j Referring to' the embodiment of the in-.
vention su gested in Figs. 1 and 2 of the drawings, t e numeral 1 designatcia the-suporting element which is preferably in the orm of a strip of molding adapted to be secured in any place where it is desired to display the .hat. or hats, and of any desired length according to thenumber of hangers adapted to be adjustably fitted thereto.
- Hence, it will be understood that thesaid supporting element or strip may be fitted either in a hat box or utilized as a piece of store furniture either in the show windows the store proper for displaying mil- I Specification of Letters Patent.

.ln carrying out the invention, the sup porting element may be'suppol'ted in, place, in any approved manner andmay 'be used', either vertically, horizontally, or'at; anangle, I so gested in Fig. 1 of the drawings the use/of; a supporting strip of molding 1 adapted .to'I-i be-arranged vertically and supporting'oile or more of the improved hat hangerswhich 5 are adjustable longitudinally ,of thesaid support. As shown, "the strip of molding l; constituting the supporting; element is pref} erably formed in opposite side edgesthereof with the longitudinally arranged side 'r' taining grooves 2 producing, at thefronti side of the strip, I longitudinal holding ribs 3 cooperating with} the individual holders in the manner-tribe presently explained. (Q In the manufacture of the individual hat,
holders, the same may be madeinvarious ways without departing'froin the ingention,
of the preferable forms of the invention, it is the intention tofconstruct so the individual holders of vi re 'bent"to,pro-' I vide the working elements of the holder,

.the drawings, it will be observed .that 'ea 'ch individual hat 'holderessentially ,consistsof an ofi'standing' wire bracket; member desiga nated in its entirety by the reference numeral, I r 4, and which bracket member carries all. of, 95.
the working parts of theholder. flhesaidbracket member includes infjitscons'truction a main outstanding hanger arm apravided at the outer extremity :ther orwith; an ;up=.., turned supporting postlfi,fronifthe:,.i1p erlloo extremity of which post-"is bentfoutyvar lyjl therefrom a crown engaging. clasp,

B of what has been termedlthesp I I II the crown'engflging M, and he fett t the wire 'constitutmg the same is "a suitable grade-of spring 'wire, it will be understood that by'grasping the downturned finger'or One or more lengths of wire vmaybe thus} f rm'of hand pieces 9 of the opposite clasp jaws 8,
the latter may be drawn together .so as to admit of the crown of the hat being placed 7 thereover, after which pressure upon the finger or'hand piece isreleased, thereby permit-ting the jaws to spring outwardly into clasping engagement with the hat crown with the result of holding the hat firmly in the desired display position.
The offstanding post 6 of the bracket member may be either vertically arranged or disposed at any other desired angle according to the angle at which it may be in- I tended to display the hat, and in order to 15 give the preferred inclination to the crown engaging clasp 7, it is only necessary to deflect the outer end portion of the hanger arm 5 either up or down as indicated at the point 10 on the hat hanger shown in the lower part of Fig. 1 of the drawings. The main outstanding hanger arm' 5 ot the bracket" niember t also includes in its construction an inclined bracing leg 11 having a connection 12 at its upper end with an intermediate part of the hanger arm 5 and whose lower end is readily united to or formed with a lower slide clasp 13 which may be conveniently formed by bending the 'wire into an approximate C-shape to produce the oppositely arranged inturnedclasping hooks or clamps 14 which frictionally and slidably embrace the opposite holding ribs 3 of the supporting element. An upper slide clasp 15, similar to the lower slide clasp is provided at the inner end of the hanger a'rnr'5 and also includes opposite inturned spring claspinghooks 0r clamps 16 which 'frictionally and slidably embrace the holding ribs 3.
The upper and lower sets of clasping hooks or clamps 16 and 14 are preferably braced and connected by intermediate brace spring bars 17 lying in the retaining grooves 2 of the supporting element, thus providing a very rigid and firm structure which admits of the individual hat hangers being slid up and down on the supporting element to any desired position, and held in the latter through the frictional engagement of the slide 'clasps with the holding ribs 3. As suggested in Figs. 1 and 2 of the drawings, the individual hat hangers'may be conveniently formed oftwo lengths of wire each of which isbentto form one half of. the hanger as above described,and is an exact duplicate of'the other half,-the two lengths of wire bemg banded, soldered, or otherwise rigidly united at fastening points 18. However, the entire hat hanger may be formed of a single length of wire, as suggested in Fig.
' 3 of the drawings,'and the latter figure of v the drawings also illustrates another embodiment of the invention,viz: that of having the supporting element 1 arranged horizontally and hence necessitating arranging the upper and lower slide clasps of the bracket member horizontally instead of vertically. In this adaptation of the invention, it will be observed by reference to Fig. 3
of the drawings that the hanger arm 5 is formed at its inner end with a horizontal slide clasp 15 embodying the inturned clasping hooks or clamps 16 slidably embracing the holding ribs of the supporting element, while the bracin le 11 is ikewise formed with a lower sli e clasp 13 having the inturned spring clasping hooks or clamps 14,
' and the latter connected with the corresponding upper hooks or clamps 16 by intermediate brace bars 17, thelatter, however, lying on the outside of the face of the su porting element and disposed vertically. In other respects, the essential features shown in Fig. 3 are the same as the construction illustrated in Figs. 1 and 2.
.From' the foregoing it will be understood that various changes in the form, proport1on, and minor details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the 2. :In a hat holder of the class described,
the-combination with a sup orting element having oppositely arranged olding ribs of the holder proper comprising a wire bracket member having a main hanger arm provided at its outer extremity with a supporting post carrying a hat support, and at itsinner end provided with a slide clas having clasping hooks engaging said holding ribs, an inclined brace leg united at its upper end withv a hanger arm and provided at its lower end with a slide. clas having clasping hooks embracing said ho ding-ribs, and connecting bars between the upper and lower holding hooks or clamps. 1 Y
