H. DIENER GARMENT HANGER April 11, 1939.
Filed Sept. 24, 193'? 'INVENTOR.
W22 a 226 2; n
l Je l TTORNEYS.
Patented Apr. 11, 1939 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE- 2 Claims.
The present invention relates to garment hangers generally, and more particularly to hangers of the class which are especially suited to support a coat and trousers.
' The principal object of the invention is to provide a coat hanger with a new and. improved trouser supporting bar.
Another object of the invention is to provide means on the trouser bar of the hanger cooperating with portions of the trousers to prevent lateral movement of the trousers when suspended thereon.
Still another object resides in the provision of a trouser bar shaped and constructed so as to cooperate with the trouser side seams whereby the casual lateral movement of the trousers when suspended on said bar will be prevented, thus eliminating the objectionable wrinkling of the trousers ordinarily occurring as a result'of sliding movements.
A still further object resides in providing a wire hanger of the type mentioned wherein the trouser bar is compoundly curved and formed approximately centrally thereof with a definitely shaped depression adapted to receive therein the trouser side seams when said trousers are sus pended thereon.
Still another object resides in providing a hanger of the class mentioned which is simple and durable in construction, inexpensive to manufacture, and one which will be very efiicient in use.
With these and other objects in view, my invention consists in the novel features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts as will be hereinafter more particularly described and claimed.
Fig. 1 represents a front elevation of the clothes hanger embodying my invention, the depression in the trouser supporting cross bar extending below the plane of the ends of the shoulder supporting members.
Fig. 2 represents a front elevation of the clothes hanger embodying my invention when in use, the bottom edge of the depression in the trouser supporting cross bar being substantially parallel to the plane of the ends of the shoulder supporting members.
Fig. 3 is a section taken on line 3-3 of Fig. 2.
Referring to the figures by characters of reference, I designates a suspension hook and 2 the shoulder supporting members. Integral with and extending transversely to the said shoulder supporting members is a trouser supporting cross bar comprising trouser supporting sections consisting of the upwardly curved end portions 3 and a depression 4 formed at approximately the center thereof.
The hanger is made from a single length of wire to form the above described construction, the one end of the wire forming a continuation of one of the shoulder supporting members 2 being entwisted about that portion of the wire continuing from the hook I as shown at 5, the wires leading from the hook and through the portion 5 continuing outwardly to form the horizontal shoulder portions 5. This portion 5 constitutes a spacing between the suspension hook I and the shoulder supporting members 2.
When using the herein described invention, the trousers 8 are folded in the usual manner and placed to hang on the trouser supporting sections of the cross bar, the side seams of the trousers positioned in the depression formed between the trouser supporting sections of the trouser cross bar, the respective edge portions of the trousers extending over the curved portions of the said trouser sections.
By positioning the trouser side seams in the depression provided between the trouser supporting sections, the weight of the side seams when positioned therein will prevent lateral sliding movements of the trousers, thereby eliminating the wrinkling of the trousers caused by such sliding movements.
The coat I is positioned on the hanger in the usual manner, the shoulder portions of the coat positioned on the shoulder supporting members, whereby the weight of the coat when suspended thereon will cause the outer ends of the shoulder supporting members to move inwardly towards each other thereby causing the trouser supporting cross bar to be elevated to a position, as shown in Fig. 2 and indicated by arrows at in Fig. 1 of the drawing, the depression in said cross bar being elevated to a position substantially parallel to the ends of the shoulder supporting members. Thus, it will be seen that the trouser cross bar will not bend downwardly when the trousers are positioned thereon as the weight of the coat, when positioned on the shoulder supporting members will cause the trouser supporting cross bar to flex upwardly thereby eliminating the objectionable downward movement of the trouser cross bar, due to the great and undesirable flexibility of that portion of the majority of garment hangers now in use.
From the foregoing description of the construction of my improved garment hanger, the operation thereof in the manner of applying the same for use will be readily understood and it Will be further seen that I have provided a simple, inexpensive and efficient means for carrying out the objects of the invention.
While I have particularly described the elements best adapted to perform the functions set forth, various changes in form, proportion and in the minor details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the principles of the invention.
I claim:-
1. A garment hanger comprising a suspension member, garment shoulder supporting members downwardly diverging from said suspension mem ber, a trouser supporting cross bar intermediate the lower ends of the shoulder supporting members, the trouser supporting cross bar having a depression formed at the central portion thereof for receiving the trouser side seams, and being upwardly curved at opposite sides of the said depression, the hanger being formed of material of such resiliency that the weight of a garment on said shoulder supporting members flexes the trouser supporting cross bar upwardly.
2. A garment hanger comprising a suspension member, shoulder supporting members downwardly diverging from said suspension member, and a trouser supporting cross bar interconnecting the end portions of said shoulder supporting members, said cross bar including trouser supporting sections, and a restricted depression between the trouser supporting sections for the reception of the side seams of a pair of trousers to prevent lateral sliding movement of the trousers on the trouser supporting sections.
