(j) DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0019] With reference now to the drawings, and in particular to FIGS. 1 through 7 thereof, a new clothes hanger device embodying the principles and concepts of an embodiment of the disclosure and generally designated by the reference numeral 10 will be described.

[0020] As best illustrated in FIGS. 1 through 7, the bendable clothes hanger assembly 10 generally comprises a clothes hanger 12 that has a hook 14 and a pair of arms 16 each extending away from the hook 14. Each of the arms 16 is comprised of a bendable material such that each of the arms 16 is bendable into a variety of shapes. In this way the clothes hanger 12 can be shaped to accommodate a variety of types of clothing. The hook 14 has a lower end 18 and an upper end 20, and the hook 14 has a curved portion 22 extending from the upper end 20 toward the lower end 18. Thus, the curved portion 22 defines a circular shape such that the curved portion 22 can be suspended from a closet rod.

[0021] The hook 14 has a straightened portion 24 extending between the curved portion 22 and the lower end 18. Each of the arms 16 extends away from the lower end 18 of the hook 14 and each of the arms 16 has a distal end 26 with respect to the lower end 18 of the hook 14. Each of the arms 16 has a bend 28 that is positioned adjacent to the distal end 26 such that the distal end 26 of a respective one of the arms 16 is positioned against the respective arm 16. Furthermore, the bend 28 in each of the arms 16 is permanently formed into the arms 16, and the pair of arms 16 includes a first arm 30 and a second arm 32.

[0022] In use, as is most clearly shown in FIG. 5, the second arm 32 can be bent into a loop 34 which extends around a loop 36 formed by the first arm 30. In this way the first arm 30 and the second arm 32 can each support a respective pair of pants. As is most clearly shown in FIG. 6, the first arm 30 can be bent into a coil 38 and the second arm 32 can be bent into a loop 40 that extends around the coil 38 defined by the first arm 30. In this way the first arm 30 can support accessories, such as a waist belt for example, beneath clothing suspended on the second arm 32. As is most clearly shown in FIG. 7, a prominence 40 can be bent into each of the first arm 30 and the second arm 32, located adjacent to the hook 14, and the first arm 30 can be bent around the second arm 32 at a point located adjacent to the distal end 26 of the first arm 30 and second arm 32. In this way the prominence 40 on each of the first arm 30 and the second arm 32 can retain straps 42 of a dress 44 on the clothes hanger 12.

[0023] With respect to the above description then, it is to be realized that the optimum dimensional relationships for the parts of an embodiment enabled by the disclosure, to include variations in size, materials, shape, form, function and manner of operation, assembly and use, are deemed readily apparent and obvious to one skilled in the art, and all equivalent relationships to those illustrated in the drawings and described in the specification are intended to be encompassed by an embodiment of the disclosure.

[0024] Therefore, the foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the disclosure. Further, since numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the disclosure to the exact construction and operation shown and described, and accordingly, all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the disclosure. In this patent document, the word “comprising” is used in its non-limiting sense to mean that items following the word are included, but items not specifically mentioned are not excluded. A reference to an element by the indefinite article “a” does not exclude the possibility that more than one of the element is present, unless the context clearly requires that there be only one of the elements.
