  • Patent Document 1: Japanese Utility Model Registration No. 3127615

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Problems to be Solved by the Invention

However, when storing a number of upper garments in a closet using the clothes hanger according to Patent Document 1, a number of upper garments are hung under the horizontal bar of the closet in a manner such that a number of upper garments are arranged in the length direction of the horizontal bar with the side surface facing the front side and a flat surface formed by the side surfaces of the upper garments is formed on the front side.

In this state, when a user newly stores an upper garment in the closet, the newly stored upper garment forms a flat surface together with previously stored upper garments. Therefore, it was difficult to store the newly stored upper garment in such a manner as to be distinguishable from other upper garments.

For this reason, when taking out an upper garment, a user could not easily distinguish the upper garment without moving upper garments along the horizontal bar or pulling an upper garment to tilt it to the front side. Thus, it was difficult to quickly take out a desired upper garment.

The present invention was made in view of the aforementioned problem, and aims to provide a clothes hanger capable of storing upper garments in a distinguishable manner according to the frequency of use, the type, etc., and quickly taking out a desired upper garment.

Means for Solving the Problems

In order to achieve the aforementioned object, the present invention provides a clothes hanger provided with a main body portion on which an upper garment is to be hung and a hook portion connected to the main body portion. The main body portion is provided with a first shoulder rod extending obliquely downward, and a second shoulder rod extending obliquely downward from an upper end of the first shoulder rod in a direction opposite to the first shoulder rod at an angle relative to the first shoulder rod, and a hook rod extending obliquely upward from the upper end of the first shoulder rod. The hook portion is provided at an upper end of the hook rod such that the hook portion is offset to either a right side or a left side with respect to a center of gravity of the main body portion and is offset to one side from a center of the second shoulder rod in a length direction of the second shoulder rod.

According to this, since the hook portion is provided on the right side or the left side with respect to the center of gravity of the main body portion, a user can hang an upper garment so as to be offset to one side of the closet either on the front side or the back side by hanging the hook portion on the horizontal bar with the upper garment hung on the main body portion. Therefore, it becomes possible to store an upper garment according to the frequency of use, the type, etc., in a distinguishable manner.

In addition, the main body portion may further include a horizontal rod extending in a horizontal direction, and may be connected to a lower end portion of the first shoulder rod and a lower end portion of the second shoulder rod. With this, the strength of the main body portion is increased, preventing the deformation of the main body portion, and a user can hang a lower garment paired with the upper garment on the horizontal rod in a folded manner.

Furthermore, the second shoulder rod may be rotatably movable about a connection portion connected to the horizontal rod as a fulcrum, and may be detachably connected to the first shoulder rod. With this, in the clothes hanger, since the second shoulder rod rotates in a direction toward the horizontal rod, a lower garment can be hung in a state in which the second shoulder rod and the horizontal rod are overlapped, or can be hung by being sandwiched between the second shoulder rod and the horizontal rod. This makes it possible to stably hold a lower garment hung on the horizontal rod.

Further, the horizontal rod may be provided with a fitting groove in which the second shoulder rod can be fitted. With this, when the second shoulder rod is rotated in a direction toward the horizontal rod, the second shoulder can be fitted in the fitting groove of the horizontal rod. Therefore, it is possible to hang a lower garment on the flat horizontal rod in which the second shoulder rod is fitted or to assuredly sandwich a lower garment between the second shoulder rod and the horizontal rod.

Further, in the main body portion, a weight may be provided on one side in which the hook portion is provided with respect to the center of gravity of the main body portion. With this, since the weight is provided on one side in which the hook portion is provided with respect to the center of gravity of the main body portion, the clothes hanger can keep the balance of equilibrium when the hook portion is hooked on the horizontal bar.

Also, the weight may be slidably provided along the main body portion. With this, since the weight can be slid along the main body portion, it becomes possible for the clothes hanger to adjust the balance of equilibrium according to a clothes to be hung.

Also, the hook rod may be rotatably movable about a connection portion connected to the first shoulder rod as a fulcrum. With this, by rotating the hook rod about the connection portion connected to the first shoulder rod as a fulcrum, it is possible to adjust the main body portion to an arbitrary position with respect to the hook rod.

Further, the hook rod may be rotatably movable about a connection portion connected to the hook portion as a fulcrum. With this, by rotating the hook rod about the connection portion connected to the hook portion as a fulcrum, it is possible to adjust the main body portion to an arbitrary position with respect to a horizontal bar, etc., on which the hook portion is hooked.

Furthermore, a holding member to be attached to a building member such as a wall, a pillar and a bar may also be provided. The holding member may be provided with a concave portion in which a tip portion of the hook portion is inserted. With this, after attaching the holding member to a building member such as a wall, a pillar and a bar, by inserting the tip portion of the hook portion into the concave portion of the holding member, the hanger can be easily and assuredly arranged at various portions of a building member.

Further, the holding member may be rotatably attached to a building member. With this, by rotating the holding member in the front-rear direction or the left-right direction with respect to a building member, each hanger held by the holding member can be arranged at an arbitrary position.

Effects of the Invention

According to the present invention, since the hook portion is provided on the right side or the left side with respect to the center of gravity of the main body portion, a user can hang an upper garment so as to be offset on either the front side or the back side of the closet by hanging the upper garment on the main body portion and hooking the hook portion on the horizontal bar. Thus, it becomes possible to store upper garments according to the frequency of use, the type, etc. Therefore, when taking out an upper garment hung in a manner such that it is offset to the front side, the user can take out the upper garment by viewing the side surface and the front and back surfaces of the garment near the side surface, and therefore can quickly take out a desired upper garment.

 EMBODIMENTS FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION First Embodiment

Next, a clothes hanger according to a first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3. In this specification, the wording “left” of the clothes hanger refers to the left side direction (the direction of the arrow A shown in FIG. 1) when facing FIG. 1 and the wording “right” of the clothes hanger refers to the right side direction (the direction opposite to the direction of the arrow A shown in FIG. 1) when facing FIG. 1, the wording “above” of the clothes hanger refers to the upper side direction when facing FIG. 1, and the wording “below” of the clothes hanger refers to the downward side direction when facing FIG. 1. The wording “left” of an upper garment J refers to the left direction when the upper garment J is seen from its front side, and “right” of the upper garment J refers to the right direction when the upper garment J is seen from its front side. Further, the wording “front side” of the closet C refers to the side closer to a user U in FIG. 2, and “back side” of the closet C refers to the side far from the user U in FIG. 2.

The clothes hanger 1 is a clothes hanger for hanging an upper garment J in a closet C and equipped with a main body portion 11 on which the upper garment J is to be hung, a hook portion 12 connected to the main body portion 11, and a weight 13 attached to the main body portion 11. In the clothes hanger 1, an upper garment is hung on the main body portion 11, and the hook portion 12 is hooked on the horizontal bar P of the closet C. Thus, the upper garment J can be accommodated in the closet C in a hung manner.

The main body portion 11 is provided with, as shown in FIG. 1, a first shoulder rod 111 extending obliquely downward, a second shoulder rod 112 extending obliquely downward from an upper end 111a of the first shoulder rod 111 to the opposite side of the first shoulder rod 111, a horizontal rod 113 connected to a lower end portion 111b of the first shoulder rod 111 and a lower end portion 112b of the second shoulder rod 112, and a hook rod 114 extending obliquely upward from the upper end 111a of the first shoulder rod 111.

The first shoulder rod 111 is a linear rod-shaped member along an inner side of a shoulder portion of one side of the upper garment J when the upper garment J is hung on the main body portion 11, and has about half the length of a length of a general person's shoulder, specifically a length of 150 mm to 300 mm. The first shoulder rod 111 is inclined downward at an angle along the shoulder line, specifically at an angle of 20° to 30°. Further, in this embodiment, the first shoulder rod 111 has a thickness of about 10 mm.

The second shoulder rod 112 is a linear rod-shaped member along an inner side of a shoulder portion of the other side of an upper garment J when the upper garment J is hung on the main body portion 11, and similarly to the aforementioned first shoulder rod 111, it has about half the length of a length of a general person's shoulder, specifically a length of 150 mm to 300 mm. The second shoulder rod 112 forms an angle of 120° to 140° with the first shoulder rod 111 and is inclined downward at an angle along the shoulder line, specifically at an angle of 20° to 30°. Further, in this embodiment, the second shoulder rod 112 has a thickness of about 10 mm.

The horizontal rod 113 is a linear rod-shaped member extending in the horizontal direction. The right side end portion thereof is connected to the lower end portion 111b of the first shoulder rod 111, and the left side end portion thereof is connected to the lower end portion 112b of the second shoulder rod 112. For this reason, the strength of the main body portion 1 is increase to prevent the deformation of the main body portion 1, so that a user U can hang a lower garment T paired with the upper garment J on the horizontal rod 113 in a folded manner. Further, in this embodiment, the horizontal rod 113 has a thickness of about 9 mm.

The hook rod 114 is a rod-shaped member provided to the main body portion 11 for offsetting the hook portion 12 with respect to the center of gravity of the main body portion 11 to one side. The hook rod 114 extends obliquely upward on one side from the upper end 111a of the first shoulder rod 111, specifically extending linearly upward in the extending direction of the first shoulder rod 111, and connects the upper end of the first shoulder rod 111 and the lower end portion of the hook portion 12.

The hook portion 12 is a hook that can be hooked on a horizontal bar P in a closet C, etc. The hook portion 12 is provided at the upper end of the hook rod 114 in a state in which it is offset to the right side or the left side with respect to the center of gravity G of the main body portion 11, preferably in a state in which it is offset to one side from the center of the second shoulder rod 112 in the length direction thereof, more preferably in a state in which it is offset to one side near one end portion of the main body portion 11. Further, in this embodiment, the hook portion 12 is provided in a state in which it is offset to the left side with respect to the center of gravity G.

With this, since the hook portion 12 is provided so as to be offset to the left side of the center of gravity G of the main body portion 11, as shown in FIG. 2, when a user U puts an upper garment J on the main body portion 11 and hooks the hook portion 12 on the horizontal bar P, it becomes possible to hang the upper garment J so as to be offset to one side of the closet, either the front side or the back side of the closet C, so that upper garments can be stored according to the frequency of use, the type, etc., in a distinguishable manner.

As shown in FIG. 1, the weight 13 is provided on one side in which the hook portion 12 is provided with respect to the center of gravity G of the main body portion 11, preferably at one side end of the horizontal rod 113 in which the hook portion 12 is provided. With this, since the weight 13 is provided on one side of the main body portion 11 in which the hook portion 12 is provided with respect to the center of gravity G, the clothes hanger 1 can keep the balance of equilibrium when the hook portion 12 is hooked on the horizontal bar P. In this embodiment, the weight 13 is provided at the left end of the horizontal rod 113.

The weight 13 is provided with a through-hole 131 penetrating the inside in the right and left direction, and the horizontal rod 113 of the main body portion 11 is inserted through the through-hole 131. Therefore, the weight 13 can be slid along the horizontal rod 113 of the main body portion 11, so that the clothes hanger 1 can adjust the balance of equilibrium according to the clothes to be hung.

Further, the weight 13 may be detachably attached to the main body portion 11. Even in this case, it is possible to change the position of the weight 13 or change the weight of the weight 13, so that the clothes hanger 1 can adjust the balance of equilibrium according to the clothes to be hung.

Thus, in cases where an upper garment J to be stored is an upper garment J1 to be stored so as to stand out, in the clothes hanger 1 shown in FIG. 1, a user U puts the first shoulder rod 111 of the main body portion 11 along the inner side of the right shoulder portion of the upper garment J1, and then puts the second shoulder rod 112 along the inner side of the left shoulder portion of the upper garment J1 to thereby hang the upper garment J1 on the main body portion 11 of the clothes hanger 1. Next, as shown in FIG. 2, the user U hooks the hook portion 12 on the horizontal bar P in the closet C from the front side to hang the upper garment J1 in the closet C. In this state, since the center of gravity G of the main body portion 11 is arranged to the front side than the hook portion 12, as shown in FIG. 3, the upper garment J1 can be hung in a state in which it is offset to the front side of the closet C. Thus, it becomes possible to store the upper garment J1 in such a manner as to stand out in a distinguishable manner.

Further, in cases where an upper garment J is an upper garment J2 to be stored so as to not stand out, in the clothes hanger 1 shown FIG. 1, the user U first flips the clothes hanger 1 in the right and left direction, then puts the first shoulder rod 111 of the main body portion 11 along the inner side of the left shoulder portion of the upper garment J2, and puts the second shoulder rod 112 along the inner side of the right shoulder portion of the upper garment J2 to thereby hang the upper garment J2 on the main body portion 11 of clothes hanger 1. Next, as shown in FIG. 2, the user U hooks the hook portion 12 on the horizontal bar P in the closet C from the back side to hang the upper garment J2 in the closet C. In this state, the center of gravity G of the main body portion 11 is arranged to the back side than the hook portion 12. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 3, the upper garment J2 can be hung in a state in which it is offset to the back side of the closet C. Thus, it becomes possible to store the upper garment J2 in such a manner as to not stand out in a distinguishable manner.

Therefore, when taking out an upper garment J1 hung in a manner such that it is offset to the front side, the user U can easily distinguish the upper garment J1 by viewing the side surface of the upper garment JP and the front and back surfaces thereof near the side surface. Thus, the user U can quickly take out a desired upper garment J1.

Further, in the aforementioned embodiment, the weight 13 is provided to the horizontal rod 113, but may be provided to the first shoulder rod 111 or the second shoulder rod 112.

In addition, although the horizontal rod 113 is connected to the lower end portion 111b of the first shoulder rod 111 and the lower end portion 112b of the second shoulder rod 112, it may be connected to the middle part of the first shoulder rod 111 and/or the middle part of the second shoulder rod 112. Further, the horizontal rod 113 may not be provided.

Second Embodiment

Next, a clothes hanger according to a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5. In the following description, only configurations different from those in the aforementioned embodiment will be described, and the same reference numerals will be allotted to the same configurations and the descriptions will be omitted.

As shown in FIG. 4, the clothes hanger 1 according to this embodiment is provided with a rotation mechanism 14 at a connection portion of the horizontal rod 113 connected to the second shoulder rod 112, separately from the main body portion 11. The second shoulder rod 112 is rotatably movable in the direction toward the horizontal rod 113 so as to come close to the horizontal rod 113 about the rotation mechanism 14 of the connection portion connected to the horizontal rod 113 as a fulcrum. Furthermore, the second shoulder rod 112 is provided with an attaching and detaching mechanism 15 at a connection portion to be connected to the first shoulder rod 111, and detachably attached to the first shoulder rod 111.

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 5, by detaching the attaching and detaching mechanism 15 of the connection portion connected to the first shoulder rod 111 from the first shoulder rod 111, the second shoulder rod 112 is rotated about the rotation mechanism 14 of the connection portion connected to the horizontal rod 113 as a fulcrum in the direction toward the horizontal rod 113, so that a lower garment T can be sandwiched between the second shoulder rod 112 and the horizontal rod 113. With this, since the clothes hanger 1 sandwiches the lower garment T between the second shoulder rod 112 and the horizontal rod 113, it is possible to assuredly hold the lower garment T hung on the horizontal rod 113.

Furthermore, since the second shoulder rod 112 forms a line along the inner side of the shoulder part of one side of the upper garment J by attaching the attaching and detaching mechanism 15 to a connection portion to be attached to the first shoulder rod 111, it can assuredly hang the upper garment J on the main body portion 11.

Further, in this embodiment, a weight 13 is not provided. The rotation mechanism 14 provided at the connection portion of the second shoulder rod 112 connected to the horizontal rod 113 functions as a weight.

Furthermore, the hook portion 12 may be provided with a grip mechanism to grip the horizontal bar P so that the clothes hanger 1 can be hooked on the horizontal bar P.

The clothes hanger 1 according to this embodiment is provided with, as shown in FIG. 6, a fitting groove 113a on the upper face of the horizontal rod 113 in which the second shoulder rod 112 can be fitted.

With this, when the second shoulder rod 112 is rotated in the direction toward the horizontal rod 113 about the rotation mechanism 14 as a fulcrum, it can be fitted in the fitting groove 113a of the horizontal rod 113. Therefore, it is possible to hang a lower garment T on the flat horizontal rod 113 in which the second shoulder rod 112 is fitted, or to assuredly sandwich a lower garment T between the second shoulder rod 112 and the horizontal rod 113.

Fourth Embodiment

Next, a clothes hanger according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 7.

In the clothes hanger 1 according to this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 7(a), the hook rod 114 extends upright and upward from the upper end 111a of the first shoulder rod 111 then bends at a right angle to the left side of the main body portion 11.

Alternatively, in the clothes hanger 1, as shown in FIG. 7(b), the hook rod 114 may extend obliquely upward to the right from the upper end 111a of the first shoulder rod 111 then bend so as to fold back to the left side of the main body portion 11.

Fifth Embodiment

Next, a clothes hanger according to a fifth embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 8.

In the clothes hanger 1 according to this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 8, a rotation mechanism 114a is provided at a connection portion connecting the hook rod 114 and the first shoulder rod 111 so that the hook rod 114 can be rotated about the connection portion (rotation mechanism 114a) connected to the first shoulder rod 111 as a fulcrum.

Further, in the clothes hanger 1, a rotation mechanism 114b is provided at a connection portion connecting the hook portion 12 and the hook rod 114 so that the hook rod 114 can be rotated about the connection portion (rotation mechanism 114b) connected to the hook portion as a fulcrum.

Thus, when the hook rod 114 is rotated about the connection portion (rotation mechanism 114b) connected to the hook portion 12 as a fulcrum and in accordance with the rotation the hook rod 114 is rotated about the connection portion (rotation mechanism 114a) connected to the first shoulder rod 111 as a fulcrum, as shown by the two-dot chain lines in FIG. 8. As a result, the position of the main body portion 11 can be adjusted to the left and right with respect to the horizontal bar P while maintaining the horizontal state of the main body portion 11. Thus, the position of the upper garment J can be flexibly changed to the front side or the back side.

In the hook rod 114, the lower end portion may be provided so as to be detachable from the main body portion 11, and the upper end may be provided so as to be detachable from the hook portion 12.

In addition, although it was configured such that the hook rod 114 rotates about the connection portion (rotation mechanism 114b) connected to the hook portion 12 as a fulcrum, the hook portion 12 may be configured to rotate about the horizontal bar P as a fulcrum.

Sixth Embodiment
