BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 0001 1. Field of the Invention 0002 The present invention relates to a garment hanger, and more particularly to a garment hanger formed or manufactured with waste bottles. 0003 2. Description of the Prior Art 0004 Typical garment hangers are made of metal or plastic materials, and are normally made by forging or molding processes, and normally include a frame attached to a hook for hanging or supporting garments. 0005 However, the frame normally includes a relatively smaller width that may not suitably support jackets or coats, such that the shoulder portions of the jackets or coats or garments may be deformed after hanging with the typical garment hangers. In addition, the typical garment hangers may not be formed or manufactured by the waste bottles. 0006 The present invention has arisen to mitigate and/or obviate the afore-described disadvantages of the conventional garment hangers.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 0007 The primary objective of the present invention is to provide a garment hanger which may be formed or manufactured with waste bottles. 0008 The other objective of the present invention is to provide a garment hanger including waste bottles having relatively greater diameter to suitably support jackets or coats. 0009 The further objective of the present invention is to provide a garment hanger including a coupler for securing various waste bottles of different lengths or diameters to suitably support jackets or coats or garments having different widths. 0010 In accordance with one aspect of the invention, there is provided a garment hanger comprising a coupler, one or more bottles, and a securing device for securing the bottles to the coupler. The coupler includes a retainer for attaching to support member. The garment hanger may thus be formed or manufactured with waste bottles, and may include waste bottles having relatively greater diameter to suitably support jackets or coats. 0011 The securing device includes a first securing device provided on the coupler, and a second securing device provided on the bottles and engaged with the first securing device for securing the bottles to the coupler 0012 The first securing device is an inner thread formed in the coupler, and the second securing device is an outer thread formed on the bottles and threaded with the inner thread of the coupler. 0013 The retainer includes a hook for attaching to the support member. For example, the retainer includes a stem having a first end and a second end, the hook is provided on the first end of the stem. 0014 The coupler includes an orifice formed therein, the second end of the stem includes a pin engageable into the orifice of the coupler for securing the retainer to the coupler. 0015 The coupler includes at least one spring blade provided therein for defining the orifice thereof, the stem includes an enlarged head formed on the pin for engaging with the spring blade and for fixing the stem of the retainer to the coupler. 0016 The retainer includes a lever pivotally secured to the stem and having an arm provided on a first end thereof, and a spring biasing device for biasing the arm to engage with the hook. 0017 The lever includes a second -end having a handle provided thereon for moving the arm away from the hook against the biasing device, and for allowing the hook of the retainer to be easily attached onto or disengaged from the support member. 0018 Further objectives and advantages of the present invention will become apparent from a careful reading of a detailed description provided hereinbelow, with appropriate reference to accompanying drawings.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT 0024 Referring to the drawings, and initially to FIGS. 1-3, a garment hanger in accordance with the present invention comprises a coupler 40 including one or two ends 43 for attaching or securing to bottles 50, such as the waste polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles 50. 0025 For example, the coupler 40 includes one or both ends 43 each having a securing device, such as an inner thread 44 formed therein for threading with the other securing device, such as the threaded mouths 51 of the bottles 50, and thus for attaching or securing the bottles 50 to the coupler 40. 0026 As best shown in FIGS. 4, 5, the bottles 50 include a diameter greater than the width of the typical garment hangers, and thus may be used for suitably supporting the shoulder portions 21 of the garments or coats or jackets 20 in shape. 0027 As shown in FIG. 1, the bottles 50 of smaller lengths (solid lines) or of greater lengths (dotted lines) may be selectively attached to the coupler 40 for supporting garments or coats or jackets 20 of different shapes or widths. 0028 It is to be noted that the attachment or securing of the bottles 50 to the coupler 40 with threading engagements is for illustrating purposes only. The bottles 50 may also be secured to the coupler 40 with fasteners, clips, latches or adhesive materials or the other devices for securing the bottles 50 to the coupler 40. 0029 The coupler 40 includes a clip or a hook or a retainer 3 or the other retaining devices provided thereon for hooking or attaching to various support members 80 (FIG. 4). For example, the retainer 3 may be manufactured separately and then fixed to the coupler 40, or may be directly formed with the coupler 40 in such as the molding processes. 0030 The coupler 40 includes an orifice 41 formed therein and defined by one or more spring blades 42 (FIG. 3) that are extended inwardly in the coupler 40. For example, the coupler 40 includes a hollow chamber 47 formed therein, and the spring blades 42 are extended into the chamber 47 of the coupler 40. 0031 The retainer 3 includes a stem 30 having a pin 34 extended from one end thereof for engaging into the orifice 41 of the coupler, and an enlarged head 36 provided on the free end of the pin 34 for engaging with the spring blades 42, and for fixing the retainer 3 to the coupler 40. 0032 Alternatively, the retainer 3 may also be attached or fixed to the coupler 40 with fasteners, latches, clips, adhesive materials or the other fixing devices for fixing the retainer 3 to the coupler 40. The retainer 3 includes a hook 31 provided on the other end of the stem 30 for attaching to the support member 80 (FIG. 4). 0033 The retainer 3 further includes a lever 32 having a middle portion rotatably or pivotally secured to the middle portion of the stem 30 with a pivot shaft 37, and having an arm 38 formed on one end thereof for engaging with the hook 31 and for stably retaining or attaching the hook 31 and thus the retainer 3 to the support member 80. 0034 A spring biasing device or a spring 33 (FIG. 2) may be engaged on the shaft 37 and engaged between the stem 30 and the lever 32, for biasing or forcing the arm 38 of the lever 32 toward the hook 31 and to engage with the hook 31. 0035 The lever 32 includes the other end 39 formed as a handle 39 for being moved or forced toward the stem 30 against the spring 33, in order to move or force the arm 38 of the lever 32 from the hook 31, and for allowing the hook 31 to be solidly engaged onto or easily disengaged from the support member 80. 0036 The coupler 40 thus includes a hook or a retainer 3 for easily hooking or attaching to the support member 80. The retainer 3 may be solidly fixed to the coupler 40, or may be formed as an integral one-piece structure for attaching the coupler 40 and the bottles 50 to the support member 80. 0037 Accordingly, the garment hanger in accordance with the present invention may be formed or manufactured with waste bottles, and may include waste bottles having relatively greater diameter to suitably support jackets or coats. 0038 Although this invention has been described with a certain degree of particularity, it is to be understood that the present disclosure has been made by way of example only and that numerous changes in the detailed construction and the combination and arrangement of parts may be resorted to without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as hereinafter claimed.
