Abstract
A hanger for hanging an article from a supporting surface is described. The hanger comprises a base body which includes a vertical axis which, when the base body is disposed on the supporting surface, extends substantially perpendicular to the supporting surface; a catch configured to catch a portion of a handbag for hanging therefrom; an arm connected at one end to the base body and at the other end to the catch, the arm operatively connected to the base body so as to swing about the vertical axis between a stowed position wherein the catch is disposed adjacent a perimeter of the base, and a deployed position wherein the catch is spaced from the base so that it hangs downwardly from the base to support the handbag below the supporting surface.
Claims23
A hanger for hanging an article from a supporting surface, the hanger comprising:
- a base body which includes a vertical axis which, when the base body is disposed on the supporting surface, extends substantially perpendicular to the supporting surface;
- a catch configured to catch a portion of a handbag for hanging therefrom;
- an arm connected at one end to the base body and at the other end to a connecting chain disposed between the catch and the arm, the arm operatively connected to the base body so that a longitudinal axis of the arm swings about the vertical axis between a stowed position wherein the catch is disposed adjacent a perimeter of the base, and a deployed position wherein the catch is spaced from the base so that it hangs downwardly from the base to support the handbag below the supporting surface.
A hanger for hanging an article from a supporting surface, the hanger comprising:
- a base body which includes a vertical axis which, when the base body is disposed on the supporting surface, extends substantially perpendicular to the supporting surface;
- a catch configured to catch a portion of a handbag for hanging therefrom;
- an arm comprising a ball and socket joint disposed at a proximal end of the arm so that the arm may swing freely about the vertical axis and a horizontal axis when moving between a stowed position and a deployed position,
- wherein the arm is connected at one end to the base body and at the other end to a connecting chain disposed between the catch and the arm, the arm operatively connected to the base body so that a longitudinal axis of the arm swings about the vertical axis between the stowed position wherein the catch is disposed adjacent a perimeter of the base, and the deployed position wherein the catch is spaced from the base so that it hangs downwardly from the base to support the handbag below the supporting surface.
A hanger for hanging an article from a supporting surface, the hanger comprising:
- a base body comprising an aperture and a vertical axis which, when the base body is disposed on the supporting surface, extends substantially perpendicular to the supporting surface;
- a catch configured to catch a portion of a handbag for hanging therefrom;
- wherein an arm is connected at one end to the base body and at the other end to a connecting chain disposed between the catch and the arm, the arm operatively connected to the base body so that a longitudinal axis of the arm swings about the vertical axis between a stowed position wherein the catch is disposed adjacent a perimeter of the base, and a deployed position wherein the catch is spaced from the base so that it hangs downwardly from the base to support the handbag below the supporting surface,
- the aperture comprises a bore and a track, the arrangement of which being such that the arm may be in use substantially disposed within the aperture at least when in the stowed position, and the track is provided so that the longitudinal axis of the arm may be guided along the perimeter of the base during its swing between the stowed and deployed positions.
