Abstract:
An improved hanger for supporting hooks of other hangers in two directions comprising a body with outwardly extending arms, a top panel and a mounted hook, wherein the improvement comprises: an opening toward the lower end of said top panel defining a first passageway for supporting a hook of another hanger, wherein an axis of said first passageway is orientated in a plane perpendicular to a vertical plane of said improved hanger; and a ganging member depending downwardly from said top panel and including offset front and rear walls joined by a bottom base, whereby said front and rear walls are spaced to define a second passageway orientated in a plane perpendicular to said axis of said first passageway and for entry of a hook from another hanger which is supported by said base, and wherein inner edges of said front and rear walls are spaced sufficiently close to prevent the passage of a hook from another hanger.
