Collapsible clothes hanger structure

1. Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to a collapsible clothes hanger structure, and more particularly to a clothes hanger structure which enables to collapse or to extend automatically under preset conditions.

2. Description of the Prior Art

A conventional automatic clothes hanger comprises a main body having a platform extending outwardly for a motor and a control circuit to be secured and connected thereon. The platform is provided with a support frame and accessories. The support frame is provided with a micro switch and a sensor at respective ends to detect the weather and control the clothes hanger to extend or to collapse.

Another conventional automatic clothes hanger comprises a basic frame, a swivel frame, an adjusting frame and a fixture, and is incorporated with a sensor to extend or to collapse the clothes hanger. The swivel frame is linked to activate simultaneously to assist the clothes hanger to extend or to collapse.

The above-mentioned clothes hangers comprise a sensor to detect the weather, however, they are not defined with weather conditions, thus they can not work properly.

The present invention provides a collapsible clothes hanger structure to react when the real-time weather has changed, which comprises:

• • a frame comprising a pair of supporting legs and a rail, said rail being secured between said supporting legs, a tent being provided on said frame, said tent covering a portion of said rail;
  • a transmission unit comprising a transmission gear meshing with a transmission belt, said transmission gear and said transmission belt being disposed in said rail;
  • a hanging unit disposed in said rail;
  • a motor connected to and driving said transmission unit in said rail to control said hanging unit to slide along the rail; and
  • a control unit coupled with a light sensor, a water drop sensor, and a timer, said control unit collecting signals from any of said light sensor, said water drop sensor, and said timer to control said motor and said hanging unit.

Preferably, said rail comprises contact points at respective ends to control activation of said motor when in touch with said hanging unit, said contact points being electrically connected to said control unit.

Preferably, said control unit further comprises a manual control key to control said motor.
