  • Patent number: 3947901
    Abstract: A hanger for a toilet bowl deodorant block, the hanger comprising a unitary molded plastic frame having two downwardly converging arms with prongs and serrations at their ends embedded in the block. Above the block the arms extend forwardly, then upwardly and outwardly, and merge into horizontally-disposed bars that can rest across the top of the rim of the bowl. The rear ends of the cross bars merge into downwardly-converging arms joined in a rounded V-shaped web which is bent inwardly opposite the forwardly-sloping portion of the first-named arms to provide a clamping effect that can engage the bowl under the rim preventing accidental lifting of the hanger off the bowl rim and at the same time engaging the outside of the bowl in a single point contact with resilience that minimizes wobble of the hanger.
