Description
,Nov. 23, 1943. J. H. ROTHERAINE GARMENT HANGER Filed Dec. 26, 1941 NT OR fh'era/he V ATTORNE;
Patented Nov. 23, 1943 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 2,335,030 GARMENT HANGER.
Jerome H. Rotheraine, Philadelphia, Pa. Application December 26, 1941, Serial No. 424,381
2 Claims.
.My invention relates to a garment hanger and relates particularly to a garment hanger which may be suspended from a door or any other suitable vertically arranged wall and which is collapsible.
In the prior art patent to Roller, No. 2,103,642, is shown a garment hanger which is adapted to be suspended either from the top of a door or from a wall. However, there are numerous parts in the Roller patent which must be bent, formed and fastened to form said hanger making the garment hanger in the aforementioned patent to Roller large in size and inconvenient to carry.
It is, therefore, an object of the present invention to provide a collapsible garment hanger.
Another object of my invention i to provide a garment hanger which may be readily made from small pieces of metal.
A further object of my invention is to provide a collapsible garment hanger which may be suspended either from the top of a door or from a suitable supporting bracket mounted upon the side of a door or wall.
A further object of my invention is to provide a garment hanger which may be made by a stamping operation and which is attractive in appearance.
A further object of my invention is to provide an expansible hanger which may be transferred from room to room, readily carried in a traveling bag, and suspended from a door as the user finds convenient.
Other objects of my invention are to provide an improved device of the character described, that is easily and economically produced, which is sturdy in construction and which is highly efiicient in operation.
With the above and related objects in View, my invention consists in the details of construction and combination of parts, as will be more fully understood from the following description, when read in conjunction with the accompanying drawing, in which- Fig. 1 is a perspective view of my improved coat hanger in elongated position as mounted on a suitable wall bracket.
Fig. 2 is a side elevational view of my improved garment hanger in close position as suspended over the top of a door.
Referring to the drawing, I show a garment hanger, which comprises a hook portion and relatively slidable garment holding members, generally designated as B and C. The hook or holding member may be placed over the top of a door, as illustrated in Fig. 2, or suspended from a bracket, generally designated as D. A smaller hook H) on the end [2 of the garment hanger also may be utilized to suspend a garment hanger of the customary construction and which has the conventional type of a hook.
The garment hanger comprisin my invention also may interfit with a suitable bracket, generally designated at D, which may be fastened by means of nails or screws to a side of a vertical wall or door.
The hook, generally designated as A, of my garment hanger has parallel legs l2, I4 which may engage parallel sides of a door, and the legs I2, M are joined by a connecting portion I 6, which may rest upon the top surface or edge of the door.
A portion I8 of the leg [4 of the hook A is bent over to overlap overturned or flange ends of the stationary portion B of the garment hanger. The garment hook hanger stationary portion B is constructed of a small metal stamping having a body portion 20, and at the top of the body portion 20 is a series of serrations 22 in order to retain in the troughs of the serrations 22 a coat hanger hook of the conventional construction.
Beneath the serrations 22 is a horizontally located bead 24 for the purpose of strengthening the body member 20. A horizontally located slot 25 extends substantially parallel to the serrations 22 for the purpose of complementarily receiving a slidable rivet 28 which hereinafter will be further described.
The lower portion of the stationary portion B of the hanger is curved upwardly as at 30 so that the end of the body member 20, which fits against the leg I4, is the widest portion, and the outermost end is the smallest portion. This construction reduces the size of the piece of metal required and enables the stamping to be made of small pieces of scrap steel.
The rectilinear movable member C has a plurality of serrations 32 on the upper end of the body portion 34 whereby the serrations 32 will be aligned with the serrations 22 on the stationary member B.
Beneath the serrations 32 is a bead 36 for the purpose of reinforcing the slidable member C, and a slot 40 in the slidable member 0 for telescoping with a rivet 38 fastened to the stationary member B. The rivet 28 is rigidly attached to the slidable member 0 and interfits with the slot 26 on the stationary member, Hence, the slidable member C of the garment hanger is supported by rivets 28, 38 which slide in slots 26, 40, respectively.
Beneath the forward end of slot 40 is a circular opening 42, which may be of any desired configuration, for the purpose of holding an extra coat hanger of the conventional type and also for grasping the movable member C for moving it. Concentric to the opening 40 is a bead 43 which joins the vertically arranged bead 44, that in turn joins the horizontally arranged bead 36.
The above-described expansible garment hanger may be suspended from the metallic wall supporting hook or bracket D, which is constructed to have a vertical wall portion 50 and horizontal hook supporting portion 52. Adjacent the junc tion of the vertical portion 59 and the horizontal of the invention is to be determined as claimed.
The garment supporter may be mounted. upon a door, a drawer-edge, or wall from which position garments may be suspended by the convention-a1 type of garment-hanger, whose hooks engage the corrugations 22, 32 on the members B and C, respectively. A conventional type of garment hanger also may be suspended from th surface defining the opening 42.
I claim as my invention:
1. A garment supporter comprising a pair of relatively slidable interengaging members whereby said members are held together and are relatively slidable, a plurality of corrugations on the up er surface of said members whereby separate seats for coat hangers are formed, a hook firmly attached to one of said slidable members, and a. bracket having an inverted L-shaped portion, adapted to be attached to a vertical surface and an opening therein whereby said hook is connected therewith.
2. A garment hanger comprising a hook, a gar-" ment hanger member having a plurality of serrations therein connected to the hook, a bead on; said member to add strength thereto, a second member interengaging with and slidable relative,
to said first-named member, a plurality of serrations upon said second member, said serrations being adapted to receive coat hanger hooks Whereby said coat hanger hooks are spaced one froml the other, and including means on said slide member and on said first-named member whereby said second member is slidably supported.
