Abstract: This invention comprises a latchable swivel hook garment hanger in which the swivelling hook may be latched in any radial position relative to the hanger body and unlatched to swivel, repeatedly at will; it has a hanger body containing a bore for receiving, through its top end, the elongated shaft portion of the hook member, and, through its bottom end, a latching member, such as a wing bolt, set screw, et.,; the bore is interrupted by a window-like opening in the hanger body; the segment of the hook shaft coming within the window includes a means, such as a flattened portion alone, or a detent in combination with a washer, to limit axial movement of the hook shaft while permitting it to swivel freely. The latching member is axially movable within its bore segment to axially engage or disengage the hook shaft.

Abstract: A garment hanger is convertible from a fixed-hook shipping and storage hanger to a swiveling display hanger; it has a hook member which extends downward through a central suspension bore in the hanger body; a flattened and widened portion of the hook shaft is engaged within a window opening through the hanger body central suspension portion to rotatably suspend the hanger body for display of garments. For shipping and storage, the hook is prevented from rotating relative to the hanger body by a latch member. A vertically slidable latch member having an inner slot, which may receive and engage the flattened portion, is slided upward to restrain the hook from swiveling.
