my zw H/.s A rry 's United States Patent O TIE BAG u Thomas S. Bily, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada Applieanon January 12, 1953, serial No. 330,789
1 claim. (Cl. 312-3) My invention relates to new and useful improvements in containers for storing ties and the like, an object of my invention being to provide a device of the character herewithin described whereby ties may be suspended and protected from dust, dirt and the like.
A further object of my invention is to provide a device of the character herewithin described which is adapted to be suspended in a manner similar to the conventional coat hangers thus permitting the container to be hung between suits in a conventional closet.
Another object of my invention is to provide a device of the character herewithin described in which the ties are readily placed upon the hanger and are easily accessible for removal therefrom.
A still further object of my invention is to provide a deviceA of the character herewithin described which is simple in construction, easy in operation, and otherwise Well suited to the purpose for which it is desinged.
With the foregoing objects in view, and such other objects and advantages as will become apparent to those skilled in the art to which this invention relates as this specification proceeds, my invention consists essentially in the arrangement and construction of parts all as hereinafter more particularly described, reference being had to the accompanying drawings in which: l
Figure l is a front elevation of my device in the closed position.
Figure 2 is a front elevation of my device with the upper end in the open position.
Figure 3 is an enlarged top plan view of my device shown in the position ready for placing the ties therewithin.
In the drawings like characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the different gures.
It is well known that ties and cravats are normally stored, when not in use, by hanging same over convenient bars or hooks placed within or adjacent to conventional storage closets and under these circumstances they are readily open to being soiled by dust, dirt and the like, as well as the tendency for them to slide off the bar or hook upon which they are placed.
My invention overcomes these disadvantages inasmuch as it provides a protective covering for the ties and furthermore it provides a Vstorage means which is readily adapted to be supported upon the conventional closet bar upon which suits are suspended by conventional hangers.
Proceeding therefore to describe my invention in detail it will be seen upon reference to the accompanying drawings that I have provided an elongated rectangular container 1 which may be manufactured either of paper or of plastic and in the case of the former, a viewing window 2 may be provided in the face so that the contents can be viewed without removing the bag. The container 1 includes a front side 3 and a rear side 4 and is preferably open at the lower end thereof although, if desired, this end can be closed in the conventional manner. The upper ICC end 5 of the container is, in this'embodiment, reinforced by means of a wrapper 6 adhesively secured around the upper end of the bag, and is also provided with closure means taking the form of a flap 7 secured to the rear upper edge of the container. This flap, which may be folded along the line 8, is adapted to be slipped within a slot 9 formed in the front side of the bag, a triangular tab 10 being formed in the ilap which overlies the slot 9 and permits placement-of the ap within the slot.
. A hanger component collectively designated 11 is associated with the container 1, said component serving two purposes. Firstly, it permits the container and contents to be suspended upon a conventional rod normally found in clothes closets, and secondly, it acts as a support for the ties within the container 1. This hanger component includes a shank 12 terminating at the upper end 13 thereof in a hook 14 by which it may be suspended from the aforementioned rod. The inner end 1S of the shank passes through the container at the junction of the flap and the rear wall thereof and is curved and angulated to the conformation clearly shown in Figure 3 of the accompanying drawings.
This angulation provides a cross bar `16 upon which ties may be suspended and it will be seen that this cross V bar terminates with two right angulated stems 17 which in turn are curved and angulated to form a pair of outstanding horns 18 and in this connection it will be seen that the inner end 19 of the wire forming the hanger component terminates in a position spaced from the inner end 15 of the stem or shank 12.
In operation, the shank and hook 14 are threaded through the aperture within the rear wall of the container whereupon the container may be llexed by the fingers of the user so that it takes up the form shown in Figure 3 and in this position, it is understood, that the hanger component is turned so that it is substantially at right angles to the longitudinal axis of the container. The tie is then folded approximately medially along the length thereof in the conventional manner and the ends are dropped in the container 1 whereupon one leg of the tie is passed behind the rear member 18 of the right hand horn 18 (with respect to the drawings) so that the material can be passed through the aperture 19 between the end 19 and the shank end 15. The tie can then be dropped on the cross bar 16 whereupon the flexing pressure on the back or rear wall of the container may be relaxed thus allowing the contianer to flatten whereupon the horns 18 of the inner component are engaged over the upper front edge 20 of the container as clearly illustrated in Figure 2 and the ap can be closed as illustrated in Figure l.
In order to remove the tie, it is merely necessary to raise the flap 7, ex the container as shown in Figure 3, and lift the tie oit the cross bar 16.
In conclusion I desire to point out that the feature of the two curved horns 18, being engaged over the front edge 20, as illustrated, prevents the hanger component from slipping downwardly within the bag when same is removed from the rod or other supporting member. Furthermore, the provision of a looped portion 21 in the shank 12 of the hanger also prevents same from slipping down into the bag as well as providing a projection against which the iingers of the user may register when operating the device as it will be appreciated that the shank is somewhat difficult to grip being made of relatively thin smooth wire.
Since various modications can be made in my invention as hereinabove described, and many apparently widely different embodiments of same made within the spirit and scope of the claims without departing from such spirit and scope, it is intended that all matter contained in the 3 accompanying specification shall be interpreted as illustrative only and not in a limiting sense.
What I claim as my invention is:
A bag for the storage and protection of ties and the like, comprising in combination an elongated, vertical, substantially rectangular container, iiap lmeans selectively closing the upper end thereof, and means extending through the upper end of said bag adapted to suspend the bag whenk in use, and also adapted to support the ties when in said container, said means taking the form of a hanger component, said component including a shank extending through the wall of said container, a countercurved horn on the inner end of said shank, a substantially vertical stem extending from the inner end of said horn, a cross-bar extending from the lower end of said stem, a further substantially vertical stem extending upwardly from the other end of said cross bar, a further horn extending from the upper end of said last mentioned stem, said last-mentioned horn being spaced apart from said shank whereby the associated tie may be placed on said cross-bar, said horns adapted to overlie the upper edge of said container when in the closed position, said cross-bar adapted to lie inside said container when in the closed position.
