Hanger for trousers, comprising: (a) a tensioning member (1) having two tensioning arms (3) which move apart and have carrying pieces (4) on the ends, and (b) a U-shaped or virtually U-shaped attachment (2) having two limbs. Both parts are intended to grip onto the waistband (11) of a pair of trousers, and in such a way that the attachment grips with the limbs onto the waistband at the point of the front folds (13) thereof, while the tensioning member grips on the one side with its carrying pieces onto the waistband via the limbs of the attachment, thereby clamping free parts (12) of the waistband, and on the other side grips directly onto the waistband at the point of the rear fold (14) therein. The dimensions of carrying pieces and attachment are adapted to each other such that, at least after being fitted on a pair of trousers, a carrying piece (4) cannot pass between the limbs (8) of the attachment.
A trouser hanger assembly for suspending a pair of trousers in folded, vertical condition from the waistband thereof, which comprises the combination of resilient means for spreading the waistband into flat, stretched condition, and second means cooperable with the resilient means for anchoring the resilient means at one end within the waistband in opposition to the stretched condition of the waistband.
A trouser hanger assembly for suspending a pair of trousers in flat folded, vertical condition from the waistband thereof with the creases of the trouser legs naturally preserved to define a first fold at the back of the waistband, which comprises the combination of first means having a pair of spaced portions for providing a pair of laterally spaced folds at the unsecured front of the waistband when portions of the trousers defining the unsecured front are folded over the spaced portions, and resilient means for pressing the laterally spaced folds against said spaced portions to fix the laterally spaced folds in spaced relation to the first fold while bridging between the first means and the first fold to stretch the waistband and hold the first means in place.
A trouser hanger assembly for suspending a pair of trousers in flat folded, vertical condition from the waistband thereof with the creases of the trouser legs naturally preserved and to define a first fold at the back of the waistband opposite the front of the trousers whereat a normal fastenable separation is located to define fastenable ends of the waistband, which comprises the combination of first means having a pair of spaced portions for providing a pair of laterally spaced folds at the fastenable ends of the waistband when respective portions of the waistband adjacent the fastenable ends thereof are folded over respective spaced portions, and resilient means having a first member at one end thereof seated in the first fold and a second member at the other end thereof for penetration between the spaced portions to press the laterally spaced folds against said spaced portions and fix the laterally spaced folds in spaced relation to the first fold while the resilient means bridges between the first means and the first fold to stretch the waistband therebetween and hold the first means in place.
