ABSTRACT:
Wire coat hangers having transverse cross sections of unique configuration. In a first embodiment, the hanger has a rounded, generally "T"-shaped configuration when seen in transverse section. In a second embodiment, the cross section of the hanger has the configuration of a five pointed star with circumferentially and equidistantly spaced and radially extending fins having a common extent and having round distal free ends. Other embodiments have various star-shaped cross sections and include two to twelve fins. In all embodiments, the unique cross sectional shapes are achieved by roll forming or drawing. In the "T"-shaped configuration, a 62% reduction in material is achieved, and in the star-shaped configuration, a 50% reduction in materials is attained. The new coat hangers therefore use much less material than conventional round in section coat hangers, but are about equally strong.
