Benefits of technology

[0011] The object of the present invention is to provide a hanger that can overcome the above-described drawbacks.

Problems solved by technology

However, the conventional hangers described above still entail the following outstanding problems.
Therefore, when trousers or the like are hung from the hanger, stability is inadequate, and the trousers or the like are displaced to one side or the other of the retaining / supporting portion.
As a result, there has always been a danger of wrinkles being formed.
Further, in a hanger disclosed in JP-U No. 7-20949, a member inserted through a belt loop portion is formed as a hook, and therefore, an upper central part of the trousers hangs down and the trousers lose shape and become visually undesirable.
Further, when the trousers are hung down over a long period of time, there has been a danger that wrinkles may be formed due to the trousers losing shape.

first embodiment

[0046] [First Embodiment]

[0047]FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing a state in which a hanger according to a first embodiment of the present invention is used. FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 are a perspective view and a side view, respectively, of the hanger.

[0048] As illustrated in these drawings, a hanger A according to the present embodiment includes a base body 1 having a hook portion 11 in the center thereof, and a pair of retaining bodies 2, 2, base ends of which are connected to the left-hand side and the right-hand side portions of the base body 1. A lower-body garment B such as trousers or slacks can be hung by means of retention by retaining bodies 2, 2. In the present embodiment, the base body 1 with the hook portion 11, together with the retaining bodies 2, 2, are formed integrally with a synthetic resin material. The base body 1 has a triangular shape in which two side portions extending from the hook portion 11 are inclined downward and is formed as a hanging portion for an upper...

second embodiment

[0062] [Second Embodiment]

[0063]FIG. 7 shows a hanger A according to the second embodiment. The hanger A according to the second embodiment basically has the same structure as that of the first embodiment, except in so far that base body 1, and the left-hand side and right-hand side retaining bodies 2, are formed as separate members.

[0064] In these circumstances, synthetic resins may be used as materials for the retaining bodies 2 in the same manner as in the first embodiment. However, metal materials, for example, wire coated with plastic, may also be used.

[0065] In the second embodiment as well, the modified examples illustrated in the first embodiment are also applicable.

[0066] Further, in a case, as in this embodiment in which the base body 1, and the left-hand side and right-hand side retaining bodies 2 are each formed as separate members, a base portion 25 of each retaining body 2 is desirably mounted so as to be movable with respect to base body 1, as shown in FIG. 8.

third embodiment

[0068] [Third Embodiment]

[0069]FIG. 9 shows a hanger A according to a third embodiment of the present invention. The hanger A according to the third embodiment basically has the same structure as that of the first embodiment, except in so far that a holding function has been added to the retaining portions 20 of each of left-hand side and right-hand side retaining bodies 2, as illustrated in FIG. 9.

[0070] In the structure including a holding function in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 9, a clip portion 27 is formed by using a clip structure such as a clothes pin, with a spring 26 interposed between the retaining portions 20, 20. As a result, the lower-body garment B is held tightly. In this case, the retaining bodies 2, 2 may be located at positions that are symmetrical with respect to the hook portion 11, or at least one of the retaining bodies 2, 2 may be provided so as to be movable with respect to the base body 1 in an horizontal direction.

[0071] When the lower garment B is ...

Abstract

Left-hand side and right-hand side retaining bodies 2 each have a pair of retaining portions that are disposed substantially in parallel in a bifurcated manner, and end points of the retaining portions are disposed so as to face each other. An upper end portion of a lower garment such as trousers is held between the bifurcated retaining portions, and the retaining portions are inserted through belt loop portions of a lower-body garment such as trousers, thus enabling the lower-body garment to be retained by the retaining bodies and thereby be hung. As a result, a lower-body garment such as trousers can be easily hung in a stable manner without wrinkles being formed therein.
