  • Patent number: 5492260
    Abstract: A garment support assembly includes a base element mounted on a vehicle wall. The base element has a transversely extending groove which is located adjacent the vehicle wall. The garment support assembly also includes a single continuous ring element. The ring element includes an inverted U-shaped hanger receiving portion closed by a transversely extending rod portion. The rod portion is slip-fittedly seated in the groove on the base element and is captured between the base element and the vehicle wall, thus pivotally connecting the ring element to the base element. This pivotal connection allows the ring element to move between a stored position in which the ring element is located in the same transversely extending vertical plane as the base element and an open position in which the hanger receiving portion projects into the interior space of the vehicle for receiving hangers thereon.
