The present invention to a compact and adjustable hanging closet rack and organizer, and the method of making same. A closet hanger spacing device includes one or more pairs of horizontal rods where one or more of the rods in the pairs of horizontal rods are affixed to a stationary wall structure, and the spacing between the one or more rods in the rod pairs to the stationary wall being adjustable. The pairs of horizontally-oriented rods are rotatable about an axis of rotation, which can be the rod in the pair of rods that is affixed to the stationary wall, and the space between the rod pairs can be adjusted to lengthen or shorten the spacing between the pair of rods. Each of the rods in the pairs of horizontal rods is capped at the rod ends and each rod end is extendable lengthwise to widen the reach of the pairs of horizontally oriented rods. Each of rods can be partially covered by an abrasive friction surface, and the rod pairs can support a flat surfaced shelf with a curved upper portion for engaging the upper rod of the rod pair and a lower ledge oriented upward from the lower rod of the rod pair.

A tension rod mechanism includes an outer tube, an inner tube having an end received in the outer tube, and a fixing device. The fixing device includes an engaging member and an enveloping member. The engaging member includes an engaging portion and a rod connected to the engaging portion. The engaging portion is mounted to the end of the inner tube. The rod extends in the outer tube. The rod includes an outer threaded portion formed on an outer periphery thereof. The outer threaded portion is connected to an end face of the engaging portion. The outer threaded portion has a constant major diameter. The outer threaded portion includes increasing minor diameters from the engaging portion toward a free end of the rod. The enveloping member includes an inner periphery having an inner threaded portion engaged with the outer threaded portion.

There is provided a dual mount end cap system for mounting a rod. The dual mount end cap system includes both a threaded system and a fastener system. This enables end caps of the system to be pre-mounted using a fastener and also adjusted using the threaded system. The fastener can extend through the dual mount end cap system. Alternatively, the threaded system can be used without the fastener system. There also is provided a stop system to prevent a locking system for an adjustable rod system to prevent the locking system from becoming stuck.

The present invention discloses a punch-free telescopic rod, comprising an inner tube and an outer tube sleeved together. A first elastic part is connected to the inner tube. When the two tubes rotate relative to each other, the first elastic part and the insertion end squeeze each other to lock the two tubes; when the two tubes rotate in opposite directions, the first elastic part and the end face of the insertion end are separated from each to unlock the two tubes. The structure of the present invention is very simple and can achieve stable locking.
