Garment hanger and garment hanger organization system
A hanger organization system is provided and includes a first set of hangers and a second set of hangers. Each hanger of the first set of hangers includes a cross bar with a first hook member extending upwardly from a top edge of the cross bar. The first hook member has a first height as measured from a top edge of the hook member to the top edge of the cross bar. The second hook member has a second height as measured from a top edge of the hook member to the top edge of the cross bar, wherein the first height is greater than the second height. The first set of hangers and second set of hangers are arranged in alternating manner.
1. A hanger organization system comprising:
a common support rod;
a set of first hangers; and
a set of second hangers;
wherein each first hanger and each second hanger includes a cross bar having the same dimensions and shape;
wherein each first hanger has a first hook member extending upwardly from a top edge of the cross bar and wherein each second hanger includes a second hook member extending upwardly from a top edge of the cross bar, wherein the first hook member defines a top end of the first hanger and the second hook member defines a top end of the second hanger, wherein heights of the first hook member and the second hook member are different from one another and wherein each first hanger of the set of first hangers is alternating with at least one respective second hanger of the set of second hangers for positioning the cross bars of the first hangers and the second hangers at different positions when the set of first hangers and the set of second hangers are hung along the common support rod;
wherein the heights of the first hook members and the second hook members are such that when the set of first hangers and the set of second hangers are hung by their respective first hook members and second hook members along the common support rod, the cross bars of the first hangers and the cross bars of the second hangers are adjacent one another and lie in a common plane that is parallel to a longitudinal axis of the common support rod.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the cross bar of each of the first hanger and the second hanger is defined by a first end portion, a center portion, and a second end portion, each of the first end portion and second end portion having a downwardly sloping top edge, wherein the first end portion has a first no-slip slot formed therein so as to extend laterally within the first end portion and is open along the top edge of the cross bar so as to form an entrance into the first no-slip slot, wherein the second end portion has a second no-slip slot formed therein so as to extend laterally within the second end portion and is open along the top edge of the cross bar so as to form an entrance into the second no-slip slot, wherein a bottom surface of each of the first no-slip slot and the second no-slip slot comprises a ribbed surface.
3. The system of claim 2 , wherein the entrance of the first no-slip slot has a sloped shape with a bottom portion of the entrance being disposed laterally outward from a top portion of the first entrance of the first no-slip slot and the entrance of the second no-slip slot has a sloped shape with a bottom portion of the entrance of the second no-slip slot being disposed laterally outward from a top portion of the entrance of the second no-slip slot.
4. The system of claim 2 , wherein the ribbed surface comprises a series of ribs.
5. The system of claim 2 , wherein the first and second no-slip slots lie in a common second horizontal plane.
6. The system of claim 2 , wherein the cross bar of at least one of one first hanger and one second hanger further includes a pant bar that extends between the first end of the first end portion and the second end of the second end portion, the pant bar having a Y shape construction defined by a main lower portion and a pair of spaced fingers that extend upwardly in a non-parallel manner from the main lower portion with an open space formed between the spaced fingers and open along a top edge of the pant bar, upper edges of the spaced fingers providing contact areas for receiving a pair of pants.
7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first hook member has a greater height than the second hook member, wherein each cross bar of each first hanger has a bottom edge that reaches an apex at a first location below a second location at which the first hook member is attached to the top edge of the cross bar of the first hanger and each cross bar of each second hanger has a bottom edge that reaches an apex at a third location below a fourth location at which the second hook member is attached to the top edge of the cross bar of the second hanger, wherein a first horizontal plane passes through the second locations of the first hangers and a second horizontal plane passes through the third locations of the second hangers, the second horizontal plane being below the first horizontal plane.
