Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a hanger, and in particular to a hanger having a plate-shaped body so that a plurality of hangers can be prevented from being tangled when stored, and a plurality of protruding structures are also provided on the hanger to help clothes to be closely attached to each other or to avoid being squeezed by each other. Background Art

[0002] Hangers are used to store and hang clothes, and they are convenient for people to use. In modern society, hangers are almost universally used in homes, shops, hotels and offices. Their popularity and frequency of use are the highest among household items. Although the basic form of hangers has remained relatively unchanged over the past few centuries, people have never stopped pursuing their functionality, durability and convenience. From the original wooden or bamboo hangers to today's plastic, metal and velvet hangers, the materials and designs of hangers are constantly evolving to meet the needs of different users and usage scenarios. For example, velvet hangers are often used for delicate clothes to avoid slipping or leaving marks, while linear hangers made of metal wire are more durable and inexpensive.

[0003] The main function of a hanger is to hang clothes. In addition to being convenient for storage, clothes hung on a hanger are less likely to wrinkle. Compared with folded clothes, the clothes can be smoother and neater. In addition, using hangers to hang clothes can also effectively utilize three-dimensional space, especially when storage space is limited. In addition, for certain clothes, such as suits, coats, etc., due to their texture or structural characteristics, using hangers to hang clothes can better ensure the shape and life of the aforementioned specific clothes, so as to properly protect the clothes.

[0004] However, despite the many benefits of hangers, there are still some design problems that need to be solved. For example, although the design of linear hangers is simple and low-cost, due to the small diameter of the wire, they often do not have sufficient friction. In particular, for clothes made of smooth materials (such as silk or nylon), they are more likely to slide off the linear hangers when touched or moved. In addition, a significant feature of linear hangers is that the gap in the middle is large. When a large number of linear hangers are stacked together, their hooks and frames often hook and entangle with each other, making it difficult to sort and not conducive to storage and transportation by industry personnel. In addition, for individual users, tangled hangers often cause inconvenience and trouble in busy mornings or other times when clothes need to be quickly taken. When users try to forcibly separate the tangled hangers, not only are the hangers easily deformed and unusable, but they may also break suddenly due to excessive force, causing injuries to users.

[0005] In summary, the lack of linear hangers may reduce the service life of the hangers, causing users to replace them prematurely, and may also lead to users' dissatisfaction and frustration with the linear hangers, which not only increases users' expenses, but also causes waste of resources and environmental pressure. Therefore, how to effectively improve the aforementioned problems has become an important topic of the present invention. Summary of the invention

[0006] In view of the above technical problems, the present invention provides a clothes hanger with an anti-entanglement mechanism, in order to at least partially solve at least one of the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0007] In order to stand out in the fiercely competitive market, adhering to the spirit of continuous improvement, after long-term hard research and experiments, we finally developed a clothes hanger with an anti-tangle mechanism of the present invention, hoping that the advent of the present invention can provide users with a better usage experience.

[0041] The present invention is a clothes hanger with an anti-tangling mechanism. It is hereby specifically stated that the spatial shape of the element of the present invention is defined according to three mutually orthogonal axes, namely, the horizontal axis (X axis), the longitudinal axis (Y axis) and the vertical axis (Z axis). Figure 1A The three-axis directions shown in the figure are as follows, and the horizontal axis direction is used as the left-right direction of the element, the vertical axis direction is used as the front-back direction of the element, and the vertical axis direction is used as the top (top) and bottom (bottom) direction of the element. In one embodiment, refer to Figures 1A to 3 As shown, the hanger 1 includes a main body 11 and a hook member 13, wherein the main body 11 is plate-shaped, and an inclined section 111 is provided on the left and right sides thereof respectively, and each of the inclined sections 111 is away from each other from top to bottom, and the bottom side of the main body 11 is substantially horizontal, that is, the extension direction of the bottom side of the main body 11 will be substantially parallel to the horizontal axis (X axis).

[0042] Please continue reading Figures 1A to 3 As shown, the surface of the main body 11 is provided with a clothing support portion 113 and an anti-slip portion 115. In this embodiment, the clothing support portion 113 and the anti-slip portion 115 are integrally formed on the main body 11 and are arranged along the longitudinal axis (Y axis) of the main body 11, wherein one side (e.g., the front side) of the clothing support portion 113 is protruding relative to the surface of the main body 11, and the other side (e.g., the rear side) of the clothing support portion 113 is recessed relative to the surface of the main body 11. Specifically, when the clothing support portion 113 is arranged from the rear side of the main body 11 toward the front side, when viewed from the front side of the main body 11 (e.g., Figure 1A As shown in FIG. 1 , the clothing support portion 113 is protruding; when viewed from the rear side of the body 11 (as shown in FIG. 1 ), the clothing support portion 113 is protruding. Figure 1B As shown in the figure, the clothes supporting portion 113 is concave; when viewed from the side of the main body 11, an opening 114 is formed between the clothes supporting portion 113 and the main body 11; in this way, when clothes are hung on the clothes hanger 1, the clothes supporting portion 113 can keep a distance between the front and rear inner sides of the clothes, which helps to speed up the drying of clothes when hanging them out to dry.

[0043] Also, please read Figures 1A to 3As shown, in other embodiments of the present invention, when the clothing supporting portion 113 is arranged from the front side to the rear side of the main body 11, the aforementioned protruding and recessed positions can be interchanged with each other; or, the clothing supporting portion 113 and the surface of the main body 11 can be in a closed form without the opening 114; or, the clothing supporting portion 113 can be a separate component and assembled to the main body 11, and the main body 11 is provided with a through hole at a position corresponding to the clothing supporting portion 113, so that the clothing supporting portion 113 of the aforementioned separate component also forms protruding and recessed features on the opposite sides of the main body 11.

[0044] Furthermore, please continue to refer to Figures 1 to Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the hanger 1 is provided with two anti-slip portions 115, each of which is located close to each of the inclined sections 111, wherein one side (e.g., the front side) of the anti-slip portion 115 is protruding relative to the body 11, and the other side (e.g., the rear side) of the anti-slip portion 115 is recessed relative to the body 11. Specifically, when the anti-slip portion 115 is arranged from the rear side of the body 11 to the front side, when viewed from the front side of the body 11 (e.g., Figure 1A As shown in FIG. 1 , the anti-slip portion 115 is in a protruding shape; when viewed from the rear side of the body 11 (as shown in FIG. 1 ), the anti-slip portion 115 is in a protruding shape; Figure 1B As shown in the figure, the anti-slip portion 115 is concave; when viewed from the side of the main body 11, an opening 116 is formed between the anti-slip portion 115 and the main body 11; thus, when clothes are hung on the hanger 1, since one side of the anti-slip portion 115 protrudes outward from the main body 11, the position of the clothes close to the anti-slip portion 115 can be slightly stretched and deformed, and blocked by the anti-slip portion 115, thereby increasing the friction between the hanger 1 and the clothes to prevent the clothes from sliding off the hanger 1.

[0045] Also, please read Figures 1A to 3As shown, in other embodiments of the present invention, when the anti-slip portion 115 is arranged from the front side to the rear side of the main body 11, the aforementioned protruding and recessed positions can be interchanged with each other; or, the anti-slip portion 115 and the surface of the main body 11 can be in a closed form without the opening 116; or, the hanger 1 can be provided with only a single anti-slip portion 115; or, the anti-slip portion 115 can be a separate component and assembled to the main body 11, and the main body 11 is provided with a through hole at a position corresponding to the anti-slip portion 115, so that the anti-slip portion 115 of the aforementioned separate component also forms features such as protrusions and recesses on the opposite sides of the main body 11; or, the protruding directions of each anti-slip portion 115 can be the same or different. Preferably, the protruding directions of the clothing-supporting portion 113 and the anti-slip portion 115 are the same. In this way, when the user stores multiple hangers 1, the hangers 1 can be stacked together in the same direction. Through the structural design of the clothing-supporting portion 113 and the anti-slip portion 115, the front sides of the clothing-supporting portion 113 and the anti-slip portion 115 of one hanger 1 can respectively extend into the rear sides of the clothing-supporting portion 113 and the anti-slip portion 115 of the adjacent hanger 1, so that the hangers 1 can be tightly and stably attached to each other.

[0046] Please continue reading Figures 1A to 3 As shown, the hook member 13 can be disposed on the top side of the body 11. According to the actual needs of the product, the hook member 13 and the body 11 can be formed as one piece, or they can be separate components and assembled into one piece. In addition, the hook member 13 can be hooked to an object 2 (such as Figure 4 1, for example, a clothes drying pole, a door hook or a vertical clothes hanging pole. Preferably, after the hook member 13 is hooked to the object 2, the clothes hanger 1 should remain horizontal, that is, the bottom side of the clothes hanger 1 can be substantially parallel to the ground without tipping over. In other words, the clothes hanger 1 will not be suspended with an obvious overall tilt to the left or right. In addition, in order to better keep the clothes hanger 1 horizontal when hanging, at least one center of gravity adjustment portion 110 can be provided in the middle area of ​​the body 11. The center of gravity adjustment portion 110 is used to assist in adjusting the center of gravity of the clothes hanger 1, so that when the clothes hanger 1 is hung by the hook member 13, its bottom side can be substantially parallel to the ground. In this embodiment, the center of gravity adjustment portion 110 is in the form of a through hole and is close to the position of the clothes supporting portion 113, but it is not limited thereto. In other embodiments of the present invention, the center of gravity adjustment portion 110 can be a groove, a convex block, etc., or even an independent and additionally fixed element to the body 11.

[0047] Also, please continue to read Figures 1A to 3As shown, in this embodiment, a spacer 15 is integrally formed on the surface of the hook member 13, and the spacer 15 can be arranged along the longitudinal axis (Y axis) of the body 11, wherein one side (e.g., the front side) of the spacer 15 is protruding relative to the surface of the hook member 13, and the other side (e.g., the rear side) of the spacer 15 is recessed relative to the surface of the hook member 13. Specifically, when the spacer 15 is arranged from the rear side of the hook member 13 to the front side, when viewed from the front side of the hook member 13 (e.g., Figure 1A As shown), the spacer 15 will be protruding; when viewed from the rear side of the hook member 13 (as shown Figure 1B As shown in the figure, the spacer 15 will be concave; when viewed from the side of the hook member 13, an opening 151 is formed between the spacer 15 and the hook member 13, but this is not limited to the present invention. In other embodiments of the present invention, when the spacer 15 is set from the front side of the hook member 13 to the rear side, the aforementioned protruding and concave positions can be interchanged with each other; or, the spacer 15 and the surface of the hook member 13 can be in a closed form without the opening 151; or, the spacer 15 can be a separate component and assembled to the hook member 13, and the hook member 13 is provided with a through hole at the position corresponding to the spacer 15, so that the spacer 15 of the aforementioned separate component also forms features such as protrusions and concave shapes on the opposite sides of the hook member 13.

[0048] Please continue reading Figures 1A to 4 When a plurality of hangers 1 are hooked to an object 2 in the same direction, since the protruding directions of the spacing portions 15 of two adjacent hangers 1 are the same, the two adjacent hangers 1 can be closely attached to each other, which is convenient for users to store clothes in a limited space (such as the space in a wardrobe) with high density (such as the space in a wardrobe). Figure 4 The dotted box on the right represents the location of the clothing. Figure 5 As shown, when multiple hangers 1 are hooked to an object 2 in different directions, since the protruding directions of the spacing parts 15 of two adjacent hangers 1 are opposite, the spacing distance between the two adjacent hangers 1 will increase, thereby preventing the clothes from being excessively squeezed and deformed (such as Figure 5 The virtual frame represents the position of the clothes), which effectively maintains the integrity of the clothes and is convenient for users to organize and select clothes.

[0049] Please continue reading Figures 1A to 3As shown, in some embodiments, the protruding direction of the spacer 15 can be consistent with the protruding direction of the clothing support portion 113 and the anti-slip portion 115. For example, the spacer 15 protrudes toward the front side of the hook member 13 and the main body 11, and the clothing support portion 113 and the anti-slip portion 115 also protrude toward the front side of the hook member 13 and the main body 11. In this way, the main body 11 together with the rear side of the hook member 13 can remain flat and can be easily placed on a plane (such as a bed, a table, the ground, etc.), and multiple hangers 1 can be easily stacked and stored together. In addition, in order to ensure that the spacer 15 plays a role and avoid excessive squeezing and deformation of clothes, one side (such as the front side) of the spacer 15 can be positioned farther away from the main body 11 (such as the front side) than one side (such as the front side) of the clothing support portion 113 and the anti-slip portion 115. Figure 3 In this way, the clothes can be prevented from being over-stretched by the supporting portion 113, thereby preventing the clothes from being pressed against and squeezed by adjacent clothes.

[0050] In addition, in order to help the hangers 1 to be closely attached when arranged in the same direction and to maintain the spacing when arranged in different directions, please continue to refer to Figures 1A to 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the body 11 is provided with at least one magnet 14. When the hangers 1 are arranged in the same direction, the magnets 14 between adjacent hangers 1 are in an attractive state, so that the hangers 1 are brought closer together by the mutual attraction of the magnets 14; when the hangers 1 are arranged in different directions, the magnets 14 between adjacent hangers 1 are in a repulsive state, so that the hangers 1 are moved away from each other by the mutual repulsion of the magnets 14. In addition, the magnet 14 can be fixed to the body 11 by bonding, embedding or other means. In some embodiments, the surface of the magnet 14 does not exceed the surface of the body 11 to prevent the magnet 14 from being damaged or falling off due to collision.

[0051] In summary, please continue to refer to Figures 1 to Figure 3As shown, since the main body 11 of the hanger 1 is plate-shaped, unlike the traditional linear hanger with large gaps, when the user stores multiple hangers 1, the hangers 1 can be prevented from being tangled with each other, which helps the user to organize and store the hangers 1, thereby improving the convenience and experience of use. In addition, when the center of gravity adjustment portion 110 on the hanger 1 is a through hole, preferably, the height of the left and right sides of the hanger 1 will be greater than the maximum aperture P1 of the through hole, so that the hanger 1 cannot extend into the through hole of another hanger 1. However, when the left and right sides of the hanger 1 are designed to be tapered, the side edges of the left and right sides of the hanger 1 (i.e., the ends closest to the left and right sides) can extend into the through hole of another hanger 1. Therefore, in order to prevent multiple hangers 1 from being entangled with each other, the height H1 of the hanger 1 near its left and right sides is designed to be larger than the maximum aperture P1 of the through hole. In this way, when the side edges of the left and right sides of the hanger 1 extend into the through hole of another hanger 1, only one-tenth of the lateral length of the hanger 1 can actually pass through the through hole of the other hanger 1, so the user can still easily separate the hangers 1 for storage.

[0052] The specific embodiments described above further illustrate the objectives, technical solutions and beneficial effects of the present invention in detail. It should be understood that the above description is only a specific embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
