GARMENT-SUPPORT.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Mar.'19, 1918.
Application filed. March 23, 1917. Serial No. 156,908.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM G. ENGLE, a citizen of the United States, residing at Sullivan, in the county of Sullivan and State of Indiana, have invented new and useful Improvements in Garment Supports, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to improvements in garment supports.
The object of the invention is to provide a support for garments, such as coats or hats, which is adapted to be secured to the backs of chairs, benches, pews or the like so as to provide a ready and convenient means for the disposal of garments of the occupants.
A further object of the invention is to provide a device of this character which'is constructed in such a manner as to occupy the smallest possible space, in order to accommodate it for use between rows of benches, chairs, etc.
A still further object of the invention is the provision of a garment support which is of simple construction, so that it may be cheaply manufactured and at the same time will securely hold the garment thereon in a manner to prevent accidental removal of the same.
With these and other objects in view the invention consists of the following novel combination and arrangement of parts which will be hereinafter more fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings and pointed out in the appended claim.
In the drawings Figure 1 is a perspective view of a garment support constructed in accordance with the invention;
F ig. 2 is a vertical sectional view; and
Fig. 3 is a horizontal sectional view taken on the line with the pivoted member of the U-shaped arm.
Referrring in detail to the drawings the numeral 10 designates any suitable support, such as the back of a bench or pew, to which the invention is shown as applied. It is of course obvious that the device may be lengthened and adapted for use in automobiles for supporting the robes. The invention as illustrated comprises a plate 11 which is provided with apertures for the purpose of receiving the fastening device 12, by means of which the invention is secured to its support. The plate 11 is provided with alined bearings 13, whi h may be secured thereto in any suitable manner or may be as illustrated formed by striking up a portion of the plate. Mounted within these hearings is one arm 14 of a vertically disposed U-shaped supporting member. The other arm 15 of this member is adapted to swing in an are away from and toward the support 10 in order to facilitate the placing of garments upon the U-shaped member. The free end of the arm 15 is rounded a shown at 16 to prevent the same from catching into the garments and to facilitate the placing of the garments thereon. The base 17 of the U-shaped member has secured thereto one end of a coiled spring 18, which, surround the arm 14 and has its opposite end secured to the plate 11. This spring serves to urge the arm 15 toward the support in order to prevent the garment from slipping from this arm.
It will be seen from the foregoing that the device is simple in construction and may be cheaply manufactured, the plate being formed of any suitable material from which bearings 13 may be struck up. The U-shaped member is formed of a single piece of material, the arm 14: being inserted in the bearings 13 and having its free end bent as shown to prevent possible removal therefrom. It will also be noted that the device occupie very little space so that it is especially adapted for use where space is limited.
Having described the invention, what I claim is:
The combination with a support of an attaching plate secured thereto, laterally ex tending vertically alined spaced ears formed on said plate, a vertically disposed U-shaped member having one of its arms journaled in th ears of the attaching plate, garment supporting means formed by the other free arm of the U-shaped member, said garment supporting means being free to swing in an are away from the support and a pring surrounding the first mentioncd arm in a manner to normally force the second mentioned arm in contact with the support to clamp the garment between said arm and said support. In testimony whereof I affix my signature.
WILLIAM G. ENGLE.
