ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed an improved tamper-proof hanger having interchangeable shoulder cups. The tamper proof hanger is provided with gripping arms which move in the vertical plane of the hanger to clamp down on the hanger arms. The shoulder cups attach to the ends of the gripping arms, and a garment is secured to the hanger by clamping it between the shoulder cups and hanger arms. A locking mechanism locks the gripping arms in the clamping position and locks the hanger to a rod to prevent theft. The shoulder cups have a U-shaped cross-section and may slide onto the ends of the gripping arms using a tongue and groove arrangement. They are lined on their underside with an anti-slip material. This material preferably consists of a rubber pad having a central band extending away from the bottom of the cup to leave a gap in between. In this way, the band may conform to the size of the shoulders of the garment being secured, so that the garment is best gripped and secured.
