ABSTRACT:
A device for suspension of tennis rackets or the like has a flat, plate-like, elastically deformable body one end portion of which forms a hook so that it can be attached to a rod in a manner similar to that of attachment of clothes hangers to rods in closets or the like. The major portion of the body is formed with a U-shaped slot which surrounds a tongue-like inner section and is surrounded by a U-shaped outer section. The free end portion of the inner section carries a projection at each of its sides, and such projections can be inserted into or otherwise engaged by tennis rackets or other commodities which require suspension. Prior to suspension of a racket or the like, the inner section is flexed out of the plane of the outer section. The racket is then suspended on the projection which faces the outer section. Once the racket has been suspended, the inner section is released so that its natural tendency to assume the position of minimal deformation results in clamping of the suspended racket by and between the two sections. The outer section can be reinforced by one or more ribs which are provided on the body in the region of the upper end portion of the inner section. One projection of the inner section is a cylindrical stud, and the other projection of the inner section is an arcuate rib extending transversely of the inner section.
