Abstract
A portable hanger for hanging a purse from a table has a base adapted to rest upon and frictionally engage the table. A plurality of links are pivotally linked to each other in series to form a chain having a first link and a last link. A pivot pin pivotally connects the base and the first link of the plurality of links. The plurality of links are adapted for pivot between a stored configuration in which the plurality of links are positioned generally adjacent the perimeter of the base, and an operative configuration in which the plurality of links form a hook adapted for hanging the purse.
Claims23
A hanger for hanging an article relative to a surface, the hanger comprising:
- a base having a perimeter, the base being adapted to contact the surface;
- three links that are coupled together in series to form at least a portion of a chain;
- and
- a connector that rotates about an axis to move at least one of the links between (i) a stored configuration wherein at least one of the three links abuts the perimeter of the base, and (ii) an operative configuration wherein at least one of the links is positioned to support the article relative to the surface.
A hanger for hanging an article relative to a surface, the hanger comprising:
- a base;
- a plurality of links including a first link and a last link that are connected to one another;
- and
- a connector that couples the first link to the base, the connector selectively moves along an axis between a retracted position and an extended position, the connector rotating about the axis to move the plurality of links between (i) a stored configuration, and (ii) an operative configuration in which at least one of the links is positioned to suspend the article relative to the surface.
A hanger for hanging an article relative to a surface, the hanger comprising:
- a base having a perimeter, the base being adapted to contact the surface, the perimeter of the base being substantially circular, the base including a substantially planar bottom surface;
- three links that are coupled together in series to form at least a portion of a chain, the links being adapted to pivot relative to one another, at least two of plurality of links have different arcuate lengths relative to one another;
- and
- a connector that couples the first link to the base, the connector selectively moving along an axis that is substantially parallel to the bottom surface between a retracted position and an extended position, the connector rotating about the axis to move at least one of the links between (i) a stored configuration wherein at least one of the three links abuts at least approximately 60 degrees of the perimeter of the base, and (ii) an operative configuration wherein at least one of the links is positioned to support the article relative to the surface.
