  • Publication number: 20110297708
    Abstract: This disclosure provides a simple and cheap collapsible cloth hanger. According to one embodiment of the current invention the hanger consists of a hook attached to two arms that movably cross each other, thereby forming an X-configuration. By pressing the uppermost ends of the cross together the lowermost ends that form the hanger arms will move closer to each other, thereby forming a narrow assembly that can be inserted through a small neck hole. By releasing hold of the upper ends, the arms of the hanger are back to the original width and the cloth is supported by the lower ends of the arms. According to another preferred embodiment the invention works without the X-configuration and two movable arms are embedded through a pivot in a fixed structure.
