Abstract
A hanger assembly includes a vertical post, at least two fixing devices securely mounted to the vertical post at different levels, and at least two hanger members each of which is securely attached to an associated fixing device for supporting at least one object. The fixing devices are slidable along a vertical direction, thereby allowing adjustment in the levels of the fixing devices relative to the vertical post.
Claims16
A hanger device comprising:
- at least a first fixing device securely mounted to a vertical post, the fixing device being slideable along a vertical direction, thereby allowing adjustment in a level of the fixing device relative to the vertical post;
- at least a first hanger member securely attached to the fixing device for supporting at least one object, with the hanger member including two ends each having a slot, wherein each said slot extends along a longitudinal direction of the hanger member;
- two hooks each having an end including a hole;
- a bolt extending through and slidably engaged with each said slot and the hole of an associated said hook;
- and
- a nut engaging with each said bolt, thereby allowing adjustment of a longitudinal position of each said hook relative to the hanger member.

1 more element
A hanger device comprising:
- a fixing device securely mounted to a vertical post, the fixing device being slidable along a vertical direction, thereby allowing adjustment in a level of the fixing device relative to the vertical post;
- and
- a hanger member securely attached to the fixing device for supporting at least one object, wherein the fixing device is a quick release assembly, wherein the quick release assembly includes a C-shape tubular portion through which the vertical post extends, the tubular portion including two opposite ends having a slit therebetween, further comprising a rod extending through the opposite ends of the tubular portion and having a threaded first end and a second end, a nut being engaged with the threaded first end of the rod, a lever including a first end pivotally engaged with the second end of the rod and a second end for manual operation, the second end of the rod and the first end of the lever being so configured that the opposite ends of the tubular portion are moved toward each other to thereby securely clamp the vertical post when the lever is in a first position and that the opposite ends of the tubular portion are away from each other when the lever is in a second position to thereby allow the tubular portion to move along a vertical direction relative to the vertical post.
