Abstract
A hanger support trolley assembly which allows conventional clothes hangers to be loaded onto a support even though corner pockets in the garment bag are closely spaced on either side of the assembly. In one embodiment the hangers are supported on a sleeve slidably mounted on a support rod. When the sleeve is extended, hangers can be placed on the sleeve, and when closed a flange on the outer end of the sleeve retains the hangers in place. In another embodiment, the hangers are supported directly on a support rod, and the space surrounding the free end of the rod is guarded by one or more biased jaws of a spring clip. In both embodiments a concave overhead surface closely spaced from the arcuate rod prevents the hangers from being permanently transversely dislodged from the support.
