  • Patent number: 12635833
    Abstract: The dual towel hook with secure retention of a hanging article is a spring activated device for securing articles such as bath and hand towels, robes, garments and the like, intended for use while traveling under jolting or vibratory conditions such as recreation vehicles, smaller nautical vessels, food trucks, semi-trucks, and airplanes. The hanging article is placed onto or removed from the hook by rotating a securing clip feature that contains a torsion spring securely encapsulated in the hook assembly, in an upward direction. The tensioned securing clip retains items placed on the hook by seeking its neutral, least untensioned position and thereby either retains the article though pressure or encloses the item placed on the hook. The towel hook device also contains a secondary, non-tensioned, position to hang articles. The dual towel hook device offers a space saving alternative to other traditional and wider bath and hand towel storage devices such as towel rings and towel bars.
