March 7, 1939. N. L. POOLE GARMENT HANGER Fild June 2, 193? IINVENTOR:
N/Nq L POOLE ?atented Mar. 7, 1939 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 2 Claims.
My invention relates to improvements in garment-hangers of that type which comprises a plurality of parallel bars for supporting several pairs of trousers, or skirts, simultaneously and in such a manner, that any one garment may be easily removed or replaced without detaching other garments suspended on the same hanger.
The principal object of my invention is to provide a garment hanger that can be made in one piece and preferably of wood and in such a manner as to utilize the inherent flexing characteristics of certain types of wood.
Another object of my invention is to provide a garment hanger for conveniently supporting garments which will be simple and inexpensive to manufacture, and durable and light in weight.
With these objects in view, the invention consists in certain novel features of construction and combinations and arrangement of parts of the device, as hereinafter set forth, and pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawing, Figure 1 is a plan view of my hanger shown partly in section, and mounted on a fragment of a wall. Figure 2 is an end elevation shown partly in section, and illustrates two pairs of trousers suspended in position. Figure 3 is a perspective view of the garment hanger. Figure 4 illustrates a modified form of the invention, and is drawn on slightly reduced scale. Figure 5 is a plan view and illustrates bars of the device in a flexed position.
Referring to the drawing, I represents a base portion which is securely attached to any convenient door or wall 3, and in the present instance I employ wood screws 5, as a means for attachment, the said screws being passed through apertures I I provided in the base I. A plurality of elongated slots 9 are provided and are arranged parallel with each other and in a horizontal plane. The said slots are open at one extremity to provide space for entering garments into the hanger slots. To provide means of separating the slots a plurality of spacer bars II are employed, the outer extremities of which are left free to flex in order to gain the maximum amount of free movement or flexing attainable from bars of this type which normally possess an inherent tendency to rigidity. The inner extremity of the said bars are flrmly anchored to a bracket portion I3 interposed between the base I and the bars II.
It will be observed that I employ a single piece of wood in the present embodiment which is for the purpose of illustration, although the device can be made of molded rubber or any desirable material and can be fabricated from a plurality of parts but having the arrangement and combinations illustrated in the several views in the accompanying drawing.
When a single piece of wood is employed for constructing my novel garment-hanger, the bars I I are arranged so the grain of the wood will run parallel to the axes of the said bars. The flexing movement, to which the free ends of the bars are subjected when entering thick or heavier garments into the slots, is provided in a' simple manner and the small range of movement required can be reached with comparative safety and without breakage of the bars. This is more clearly illustrated in Figure 5.
Referring to Figure 4, which illustrates a modified formof my invention, a bracket portion I5. is provided and is arrangedintermediate the two extremities of the base I. Emerging from two directly opposed sides of the bracket I5, and disposed parallel with the base I are two independent rows of horizontal spacing bars IIa. bars in each of the said rows are pointed in oppo- The site directions and the outer extremity of each of the bars IIa is left free to afford a maximum amount of flexing action which is so highly desirable, in order to provide means for quickly increasing the width of the slots at their outer extremity when attaching garments.
It will be noted that this particular construction of my device, lends itself to a wide range of utility and I do not wish to be limited to specific details of construction but desire to cover broadly the idea expressed.
I claim: I
1. An integrally formed garment hanger comprising a horizontally disposed elongated base having a bracket projecting outwardly from one end portion thereof, and a plurality of spaced and, parallel bars having their axes in a horizontal plane and parallel with the axis of said elongated base for providing slots therebetween, said bars being arranged in a horizontal plane and having one end adapted to be supported by said bracket.
2. A flexible integrally formed garment hanger comprising a horizontally disposed elongated base having a bracket projecting outwardly from one end portion thereof, and a plurality of spaced and parallel flexible bars forming slots therebetween and being of a length to substantially correspond with the length of said base, said bars having axes disposed in a horizontal plane and parallel to said base and having one end merging with and supported by said bracket.
. NINA L. POOLE.
