Abstract
A clamp for retaining garment hangers in garment bags has rigid frame in the shape of a 'C' with a top leg, a rear leg and a bottom leg, the top leg and bottom leg being spaced from one another to admit hangers to be hung on the bottom leg. The frame is mountable at the top inner wall of a garment bag, for receiving garment hangers by their wire hook ends. An eccentric clamp bar rotatably carried in the frame between the rear leg and a distal end of the top leg is movable manually by a user between an open position wherein an eccentric portion of the clamp bar is spaced from the bottom leg, and a closed position wherein the eccentric protruding part of the clamp bar bears against the bottom leg, clamping the hangers in place. The eccentric clamp bar rotates on an axis in a common plane with the lower leg.
