Abstract

A hanger (10) has a pinch-grip (20) including a pair of vertically-extending components (22,24), a biasing spring (42), and a connector (50) separate and distinct from the biasing spring (42). The connector (50) pivotably secures together the upper ends of the components (22,24), between a substantially unfolded orientation, wherein the components (22,24) lie in a common plane, and a substantially folded orientation, wherein the components (22,24) are generally parallel. The connector (50) is integrally molded with the components (22,24) and configured and dimensioned to lie between the upper ends (26) thereof when the components (22,24) are in the folded orientation, without substantially inhibiting movement of the upper (26) or lower (30) ends between the closed and open positions.
