[0002] As an indispensable drying tool in people's daily lives, clothes hangers have been improved and refined generation after generation to make them more convenient for people to use.

[0003] For example, the announcement number "CN203597745U" discloses a "Hinged, Clamping, and Anti-Blow-Off Clothes Hanger" which is "composed of a clothes hanger hook, a ring-type locking tongue, a clamping arm, a clothes hanger body, a vest hook, a clamping groove protrusion, a clamping arm hinge, a ring-type locking tongue hinge, and a clamping arm recess structure." This utility model features a ring-type locking tongue at the opening of the clothes hanger hook to ensure that the clothes hanger cannot detach from the clothesline or the hung items under various wind-blown conditions. Simultaneously, the clothes hanger of this utility model is equipped with a clamping arm; regardless of the type of clothing, pressing down the clamping arm after hanging the clothing will clamp the clothing onto the clothes hanger body, preventing the clothing from detaching from the hanger without releasing the clamping arm. These two aspects of the device design ensure that clothing will not be lost due to wind or other factors during outdoor drying, and it is easy to use and has a simple structure.

[0004] The existing technology described above has the following drawbacks: it generally only has the function of hanging clothes, the hanging mode is simple, and it lacks a stable and reliable clamping function. Hangers with clamping functions are less aesthetically pleasing and are prone to damaging clothing. Therefore, a multifunctional hanger is provided that has clamping function while retaining the basic shape of the hanger, so that its aesthetics are not affected. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a multifunctional clothes hanger that can achieve the following.

[0006] This utility model provides a multifunctional clothes hanger, comprising:

[0007] The frame is divided into two parts: a first frame and a second frame, with an upward-extending hook on the first frame.

[0008] Rotating components are provided on the shoulders of the first frame and the second frame. The rotating components include an elastic part and a pressing part. The elastic part is disposed in the pressing part to control the pressing part to open or retract. The pressing part is installed on the first frame and the second frame to control the first frame and the second frame to move closer or further apart from each other.

[0009] Clamping parts are respectively disposed at the bottom of the first frame and the second frame, and the two clamping parts can fit together along the length direction to achieve the clamping function.

[0031] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0032] For specific implementation examples, please refer to: Figure 1-8 A multifunctional clothes hanger includes:

[0033] The frame is divided into two parts: a first frame body 11 and a second frame body 12. The first frame body 11 is provided with an upwardly extending hook body 18.

[0034] Understandably, conventional hangers are for single use, used to hang clothes for drying. However, in this embodiment, the hanger is divided into two parts: the first frame 11 and the second frame 12. When they are brought together, they can hang clothes just like a single hanger. Furthermore, the hook 18 is a conventional hook used at the top of a hanger, installed on either the first frame 11 or the second frame 12. In this embodiment, the hook 18 is installed on the first frame 11.

[0035] Rotating components are provided on the shoulders of the first frame 11 and the second frame 12. The rotating components include an elastic part and a pressing part. The elastic part is disposed in the pressing part to control the pressing part to open or retract. The pressing part is installed on the first frame 11 and the second frame 12 to control the first frame 11 and the second frame 12 to move closer to or further away from each other.

[0036] Clamping parts are respectively disposed at the bottom of the first frame 11 and the second frame 12, and the two clamping parts can fit together along the length direction to achieve the clamping function.

[0037] It is understood that the aforementioned rotating assembly is respectively installed at the shoulder positions of the first frame 11 and the second frame 12, while the elastic part always pushes the opening of the pressing part, thereby controlling the clamping part of the first frame 11 and the second frame 12 to always be in a clamped state. The clamping part includes a clamping rod 20, which is the part of the bottom of the hanger that runs through the length direction.

[0038] It is worth noting that the aforementioned rotating components are not limited to being located on the shoulders, but can also be located in the middle, as long as they can control the relative proximity or distance between the first frame 11 and the second frame 12.

[0039] Auxiliary frames 16 extend from the top of the first frame 11 and the second frame 12, respectively, and the connection states of the two auxiliary frames 16 and the two clamping parts are opposite. The two auxiliary frames 16 are respectively located on both sides of the hook body 18.

[0040] Depend on Figure 1-2 As shown, the auxiliary frame 16 is arranged in an arch shape, and there are two of them, respectively located on the top of the first frame 11 and the second frame 12. The two auxiliary frames 16 are located on the front and rear sides of the hook body 18. Therefore, the clamping and opening actions of the two auxiliary frames 16 can be directly controlled by pushing them closer and further apart.

[0041] In a more preferred embodiment, the auxiliary frame 16 can also be used as a manually held component. For example, when multiple hangers are used, the auxiliary frame 16 can be held simultaneously to keep the multiple hangers in a vertical position.

[0042] The advantage of this design is that when the user wants to control the clamping and opening of the clamping rod 20, they are not limited to controlling the movement of the pressing part, but can also directly push the auxiliary frames 16 on both sides closer, thereby directly controlling the clamping and opening of the clamping rod 20 by connecting with the pressing part and the clamping rod 20.

[0043] The pressing part includes a second connecting plate 13 and a first connecting plate 14. The second connecting plate 13 is installed on both shoulders of the second frame 12, and the first connecting plate 14 is installed on both shoulders of the first frame 11.

[0044] It is understandable that the aforementioned second connecting plate 13 and first connecting plate 14 are arranged in two pairs opposite each other and are distributed and installed at the shoulder positions of the first frame 11 and the second frame 12, thereby forming a hinge connection between the second connecting plate 13 and the first connecting plate 14 on both sides, making the connection more stable.

[0045] Depend on Figure 6 , Figure 8 It is known that the second connecting plate 13 and the first connecting plate 14 each have an opening on their opposite sides, and the openings are open at the top. When the second connecting plate 13 and the first connecting plate 14 are connected, the two openings face opposite sides. The first connecting plate 14 has protruding extension ears 21 on both sides, and the two extension ears 21 are located on the outer side of the second connecting plate 13.

[0046] The elastic part includes a bidirectional support spring 15, and the two elastic release ends of the bidirectional support spring 15 are respectively connected to the second connecting plate 13 and the first connecting plate 14.

[0047] The second connecting plate 13 and the first connecting plate 14, located on the same side, are connected by a pin. The double-sided support spring 15 is installed with the pin. The second connecting plate 13 and the first connecting plate 14 are rotatably connected to each other so that they can be pushed to flip and open by the elastic force of the double-sided support spring 15.

[0048] It should be further explained that both the second connecting plate 13 and the first connecting plate 14 are provided with through holes 22, which are respectively connected to their respective openings. The through holes 22 on the first connecting plate 14 are provided on the two extension ears 21. The aforementioned pin passes through the four through holes 22 and the two openings to install and connect the second connecting plate 13 and the first connecting plate 14.

[0049] It is understood that the aforementioned bidirectional support spring 15 is installed inside the opening and, based on the pin, is sleeved on the outer circumference of the pin. The bidirectional support spring 15 is a standard torsion spring, with both ends being the spring release ends in the direction of thrust, and the two ends of the bidirectional support spring 15 abut against the second connecting plate 13 and the first connecting plate 14, respectively.

[0050] The elastic release direction of the bidirectional support spring 15 is the thrust direction, so as to control the second connecting plate 13 and the first connecting plate 14 to always move towards the open side; in this state, the two clamping parts always move towards the side that clamps and fits together.

[0051] Understandably, when the double-sided support spring 15 is not under stress, it will push the second connecting plate 13 and the first connecting plate 14 away from each other around the pivot pin. Since the second connecting plate 13 and the first connecting plate 14 are connected to the first frame 11 and the second frame 12 respectively, they will always remain taut to keep the first frame 11 and the second frame 12 pressed together. When the user manually pushes the second connecting plate 13 and the first connecting plate 14 closer together, the double-sided support spring 15 will undergo elastic deformation, and the corresponding first frame 11 and second frame 12 will separate.

[0052] The bottom of the hook 18 is provided with a support part, which is horizontally installed with the first frame 11.

[0053] It is understood that the aforementioned support includes a support rod 17, which is horizontally mounted on the first frame 11. The support rod 17 and the first frame 11 can be integrally formed to provide support for the hook body 18.

[0054] The two waist positions of the first frame 11 and the second frame 12 can also fit together to achieve the clamping function.

[0055] The two waist positions are connected to the clamping part.

[0056] In a more preferred embodiment, reference may be made to Figure 1 The two waist positions of the first frame 11 and the second frame 12 can be connected to the clamping rods 20, thereby expanding the clamping range of the clamping rods 20. Specifically, the two clamping rods 20 have longer clamping surfaces, which can clamp longer garments such as clothes and pants, as well as smaller garments such as multiple socks; while the two waist positions have smaller clamping surfaces, which can clamp smaller garments such as socks, further expanding the clamping range.

[0057] In a more preferred embodiment, the two waist positions described above are not limited to a mutually fitted form, but can also adopt a non-fitted form for the purpose of increasing strength.

[0058] Both the first frame and the second frame are connected by their outer contours, while the interior is empty.

[0059] It is worth noting that the first frame 11 and the second frame 12 mentioned above are both connected by outer contours and have empty interiors. This means that they are formed by connecting aluminum alloy strips along the regular shape of the hanger, rather than being solid shapes that fill the area enclosed by the hanger's contours.

[0060] It is worth noting that, to ensure strength, the auxiliary frame 16 and the second frame 12, the first frame 11, the support rod 17, the hook 18, and the auxiliary frame 16 are all made of aluminum alloy. The support rod 17 and the first frame 11, as well as the support rod 17 and the hook 18, can be welded together. Similarly, it can also be made of plastic materials with good mechanical properties, such as ABS.

[0061] In practical use, when the first frame 11 and the second frame 12 are attached together and used as a regular clothes hanger, clothes such as T-shirts and shirts can be hung directly. However, it should be noted that the hanging range is limited to the connection point between the second connecting plate 13 and the first connecting plate 14 on both sides, which is different from a regular clothes hanger, but it does not affect the use.

[0062] When it is necessary to dry towels, trousers, or other items, the second connecting plate 13 and the first connecting plate 14 can be manually pushed closer together. Simultaneously, the two auxiliary frames 16 can also be pushed closer together for auxiliary operation. At this time, the double-sided support spring 15 is tightened and deformed, causing the two clamping rods 20 to move away from each other. Figure 2 As shown, the two sides of the first frame 11 and the second frame 12 are also open. Insert the items to be dried between the two clamping rods 20 or between the two sides, and then release the second connecting plate 13 and the first connecting plate 14. At this time, the elastic force of the double-sided support spring 15 will automatically push the second connecting plate 13 and the first connecting plate 14 to separate, and the two clamping rods 20 and the two sides will naturally clamp together to fix the items to be dried. Then, manually hang the hook 18 on the clothesline or clothes drying machine to dry the items.

[0063] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this application is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that this application can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this application. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this application is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims are intended to be embraced within this application. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims. Furthermore, it is clear that the word "comprising" does not exclude other units or steps, and the singular does not exclude the plural. Multiple units or devices recited in the apparatus claims may also be implemented by a single unit or device in software or hardware. The terms "first," "second," etc., are used to indicate names and do not indicate any particular order.
