Coat hanger bag
The present invention is to provide a vacuum hanger bag having a bag with an airtight closure, a one-way valve installed to the bag, and a hook disposed on the top end of the bag. The hook secured to an outer side of the bag, it consists of a hook with a jut projected downward from its bottom end to penetrate into an inner side of the bag. A base secured to the inner side of the bag with an axial hole for said jut embedding into. An impervious stopper is hidden from view retained at a bottom end of the axial hole. A nut is threaded to a bottom end of the base. And a hook ring with a jut projected upward from its top end is embedded into the nut.
The present invention is related to a vacuum hanger bag and a hook ring installed within, in particular, for clothing conveniently hanging into or removing out thereof.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTIONAs shown in
Before the clothing (quilt, blanket, clothes or the like) is hanging in the bag 1, two chains of interconnected closure clips of the closure 11 should be opened up; then the clothing hung therein. After two chains of interconnected closure clips are closed, a cap is removed from the one-way valve 2, and a vacuum cleaner 61 starts (refer to
The vacuum bag illustrated in
Next, an airtight closure 11 of a vacuum bag 10 is installed to a bottom end of the bag 1, when a folded hanger bag is spread upright in a wardrobe, the clothing would have been hung into the bag 1 from an opening at the bottom end of the bag vertically, if desired. In fact, a vacuum bag must be taken down from a cloth rail and placed onto a table surface flatly. Thereby, the user is going to hang anything into the bag horizontally. In turn, anything moved out from the bag, it must be taken down from a cloth rail and placed onto a table surface flatly. Moreover, clothing has a specific gravity overburdened to the hanger 3; consequently it causes the clothing to be fallen below the bag 1. Then the clothing will be wrinkled up.
Accordingly, person skilled in the art have provided a vacuum bag, such as disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,746,360 (hereinafter '360) entitled “Coat hanger bag” to Chin-Lai Chen on May 5, 1998, in which, Chen taught that a hook 50 is disposed above a bag 10, a hanger 60 is threaded to the hook 50, a one-way valve (hanger member) 30 is disposed inside the coat hanger 60; when the hook 50 is taken down from a hanger 60, a bore 61 can be connected to a sucking hole 70 of the vacuum cleaner by a sucking tube 40. When sucking out air, air remained in the bag 10 will be drained out till the inner side of the bag 1 is nearly vacuum.
The drawback of '360 is when sucking out air, a hook 50 needs to be taken down from the bag 1, then the sucking tube 40 fits over the sucking hole 70, until the air remained inside the bag 1 is drained off to approach to near vacuum. The sucking tube 40 can be separated from the bag 1, and the hook 50 is threaded to the hanger 60 integrally as a whole. Thereby, the hook 50 can be used to hang the bag 1 on the cloth rail in the wardrobe. Each time when the bag 1 is processed through a vacuum sucking process, the steps should be repeated step by step. It may cause a work-shy to the users.
Further, an opening of the vacuum bag 10 is located at the bottom end of the bag 1, whenever the clothing is taken out or hung into the bag 1, the sucking out air process should be processed on a table surface. Therefore, a lot of workload may be annoyed to the users.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTIONThe present invention is aimed to provide a vacuum bag to prevent it from deformation and being separated from a hanger.
The present invention is also aimed to provide a vacuum bag can be used to hang into or taken out clothing upright.
The present invention is also aimed to provide a vacuum bag to sustain the hanger laden with clothing, and the clothing will not be drooped or wrinkled due to the specific gravity of itself.
The present invention is also aimed to provide a hook can be assembled easily for hanging out clothing.
To solve the problems as mentioned above, and to achieve the purposes of the present invention, a first embodiment of the present invention is realized by a vacuum hanger bag (20) comprising a bag (1) equipped with an airtight closure formed by two chains of interconnected closure clips (13); a one-way valve (2) installed to the bag (1); and a hook (4) protruded from a middle point at a top end of the bag (1) characterized in that:
the hook (4) secured to an outer side of the bag (1) with a jut (412) projected downward from its bottom end for penetrating into the inner side of the bag (1); a base (42) secured to an inner side of the bag opposite to the hook (4) with an axial hole (423) for receiving the jut (412); an impervious stopper (43) is hidden from view retained at a bottom end of the axial hole (423) of the base (42); a nut (44) is threaded to a bottom end below the base (42); and a hook ring (45) with a jut (451) projected upward from its top end embedding into the nut (44).
The present invention is described in conjunction with the appended drawings hereinafter.
First EmbodimentAs shown in
As mentioned above, the airtight closure 11 is disposed to a lateral side of the bag 1; the clothing is placed into or removed from the bag 1 through the lateral opening directly. At least, two chains of interconnected closure clips 13 are installed to the airtight closure 11. Said closure clips 13 are well-known prior arts which is composed of a male, and a female chains, after the male and female chains are joined together; the airtight closure 11 is closed.
Next, a one-way valve 2 can be connected to a suck pipe of the vacuum cleaner. Air can be drained off the bag in one-way orientation but not being sucked therein. Therefore, when the valve cap is removed off, the air can be sucked out by means of a suck pipe. Conversely, when the air is not sucked out, the valve is automatically sealed. Kinds of one-way valves can be found in the USPTO issued patents and published applications, the present invention introduces a one-way valve according to U.S. application Ser. No. 11/260,364 entitled “one way valve” assigned to Su, Fu Long on Oct. 28, 2005. (Su, Fu Long now corrects his name as Su, Yu-Hsin in Taiwan, R.O.C to file application before the USPTO.)
As shown in
As mentioned above, the jut 412 at the bottom of the hook 41 is equipped with a press plate 411, the press plate is pressed onto the bag 1. A base plate 421 on top of the base 42 is welded to the bottom of the bag 1 by high frequency welding. And the bag 1 is introduced between the press plate 411 and base plate 421 to be pressed tight.
A threaded rod 422 at the bottom end of the base 42 is threaded to the nut 44; the axial hole 423 is formed at a center of the base 42. A lower opening of the axial hole 423 is closed by the cap like stopper 43, due to the stopper 43 is made of soft plastics or silicone, said stopper 43 can be plugged into a through hole 423 of the base 42 made of hard plastics, therefore, the stopper 43 fits in the through hole 423 tight.
A through hole 441 formed at a bottom end of the nut 44 can accommodate the jut 451 of the hook ring 45 embedded therein. After embedding, the jut 451 can enter into the cap like stopper 43. Due to the bottom edge of the stopper 43 is pressed tight under the threaded rod 422; therefore, an impervious effect can be achieved.
Next, said hook 4 can be formed integrally by assembling a hook 41, base 42, nut 44 and hook ring 45 as a single hanger. The hook 41 is hung from the cloth rail, in turn, clothing or something can be hung from a hook ring 45; thereby, a hanger 51 (as shown in

As shown in
The merits and advantages of the present invention can be achieved by the embodiments of the present invention as following:
When a hook 4 is disposed to a vacuum hanger bag 20, by means of a hook 41 protruded from a top end of the bag hung from a cloth rail. In turn, a hook ring 45 inside the bag is designed for hanging out a hanger with clothing, the specific gravity of the hanger and clothing are directly endured by the hook ring 45. Owing to the hook ring 45 is assembled to said hook 41 integrally as a whole, thereby, the bag 1 needs not to withstand the specific gravity of clothing directly, thereby the bag 1 will not be separated from the hook ring 45 and the bag 1 will not be deformed or wrinkled.
A vacuum hanger bag 20 is hung from a cloth rail by a hook 4, the hanger with clothing hanging out can be hung into the bag once for all through an airtight closure at a lateral side and to hang out on a hook ring thereof. Conversely, they can be removed from the bag through the airtight closure altogether in the same way. Because the clothing and the hanger can be hung into and removed from the bag once for all, there is no need to place the hanger and clothing on the table surface flatly as a conventional vacuum hanger bag in operation.
