ABSTRACT:
A unitary metal rack having a latch means formed thereon. The rack provides a hanger for articles, and is supported from a frame and gasket assembly, as for example, a truck rear window having a frame, gasket, and glass, wherein the glass is held within the frame by the gasket, and the gasket contacts the marginal edges of the glass and the marginal edges of the frame. The rack includes a bent-up main body having a flat side which bears against a vertical wall of the frame. A hook forms the lower end of the main body. A lip forms the upper edge portion of the main body and extends in opposition to the hook. The upper marginal end of the main body is forced between the gasket and the frame wall, with the lip thereof being positioned in abutting relationship respective to an edge formed at the upper end of the frame wall. A marginal flat side of the main body is placed in contact with the frame wall. Various different objects, including clothes and the like, can be supported by the hook. The rack can be removed by prying the lip away from the frame wall and removing the upper marginal end of the main body from between the gasket and frame wall.
