Abstract
A garment hanger comprising a body, a hook member and a first and second clamp assembly. The body includes a beam member, a first end and a second end. The beam member has an upper flange and a lower flange spaced apart from the upper flange. Additionally, a first web portion extends from and is oblique to the upper flange. A second web portion extends from and is oblique to the lower flange. The two web portions intersect each other between the upper and lower flanges. The hook member is coupled to the body. The clamp members are positioned on opposing sides of the body. One or both of the clamp assemblies include a rear assembly half and a front assembly half. The two halves are pivotally coupled to each other. Each half has a garment engaging surface and a spring receiving region. The spring receiving region is configured to receive at least two spring members. At least one spring member is coupled to the spring receiving region so as to bias the garment engagement surfaces toward each other.
