ABSTRACT:
A coat hanger has first and second arms and a hook mutually pivoted on a pin so as to rotate relative to one another for folding from a use configuration to a storage configuration. The pivot pin engages one of the arms through a slot extending in the arm permitting the arm to slide relative to the pin to engage a projection on the arm with an abutment on the other arm, thereby holding the coat hanger in its open configuration.
Near the free end of each arm there is provided a longitudinally extending slot that defines a tab. When the arms are folded the slots mutually engage allowing the arms to overlie one another with the tab of the first arm engaging the outer surface of the second arm while the tab of the second arm engages the inner surface of the first arm. The hook rotates about the pivot so as to lie along the collapsed arms reducing the longitudinal extent of the folded hanger.
