Force distribution multi-piece hinged hanger

Abstract

A hanger having a front plate attached through a plate junction to a back plate. At the rear of back plate are lower pins that extend outward from back plate. Back plate has slots that hold lower pins. A hinge pin is provided that traverses the upper portion of plate junction and fits into a slot that traverses the top of back plate horizontally. Hinge pin is bent backward and downward at right angles to ensure vertical portions of hinge pin do not create a binding condition between the fabric-covered wall or furniture and the back plate. Vertical portions of hinge pin are used to initially pin the hanger into the applicable fabric-covered wall or furniture. Once the tips of hinge pin are inserted into the fabric of the fabric-covered wall or furniture, the rest of the hanger will rotate freely on the horizontal axis of hinge pin allowing the lower pins to penetrate the fabric exterior surface and the inner core material at an angle slightly less than 90 degrees. Attached at the upper portion of the front plate is a hook or prong that extends outward and slightly upward from the plate. Upper pins are present in a second embodiment.
