Wall hanger, for neck scarves and lightweight textiles

Abstract

A wall hanger for neck scarves and lightweight textiles makes use of the effect produced by two parts which are forced to press against one another. The wall hanger may be formed modularly by a single hanger or by a set of several hangers. Each module includes a physical pendulum whose pendular mass is mainly gathered in the free end of its arm which is formed by a part which widens out in the form of a partially-open small dish in which a permanent magnet is housed. The arm is mounted on a horizontal axis joined to the small dish and parallel to the hanging of the pendulum, whereon the magnet can freely swing at a certain angle “x” in either direction. The magnet has a flat surface, parallel to its axis of rotation, which faces towards the open part of the small dish from which it protrudes.

1 . IMPROVED WALL HANGER FOR NECK SCARVES AND LIGHTWEIGHT TEXTILES of the type which make use of the effect produced by two parts which are forced to press against one another; it may comprised modularly by a single hanger or by a set of several hangers; each module comprises a physical pendulum characterized in that its pendular mass is mainly gathered in the free end of its arm which is formed by a part which widens out in the form of a partially-open small dish wherein a permanent magnet is housed, mounted on a horizontal axis joined to the small dish and parallel to the hanging of the pendulum, whereon said magnet can freely swing at a certain angle “x” in either direction; the magnet has a flat surface, parallel to its axis of rotation, which faces towards the open part of the small dish from which its protrudes; hanging and at rest, the lower part of the pendulum rests on a fixed part of ferromagnetic material which has a flat surface facing that of the magnet and parallel to the latter's axis of rotation; the arm of the pendulum has a swinging action in its centre part which, together with the specific positioning of the ferromagnetic part, make the flat part of the latter and that of the magnet, when resting against one another, have coplanar contact, before the pendulum reaches its lowest point, a position at which the above configuration would not let it reach anyway; in the outer part of the closed part of the small dish, a handle or knob is inserted.
