IPC Classification
CPC Classification
A garment hanger with a hook either metal or plastic that moves between a substantially vertical position and a substantially horizontal position or also remains in a stationary upright position. The body of the hanger has arms that collapse and move between a substantially vertical position and a substantially horizontal position. Secondary “locking” system on arms and bodies to ensure the arms remain in a horizontal position without folding unintentionally by being interlocked with each other in a manner that requires a user to manually release the interlocking through use of a lock releasing lever. This allows easier insertion or removal of hanger in closed neck garment. When both arms and hook are folded or collapsed this creates footprint reduction of hanger, creating space savings in packaging and transport. A size tab can be fitted to the hanger.
