a first supporting frame having at least a first and a second supporting bars, each provided for receiving multiple clothing accessory articles; a first suspension member connected to a first edge of said first supporting frame for suspending said clothing accessory supporting rack with an external supporting member; and a mechanism configured to position said first supporting bar approximately vertically on top of said second supporting bar for defining a first storage mode; said mechanism is further configured to position said first supporting bar horizontally apart from said second supporting bar for defining a second organizing mode.
2 . The clothing accessories supporting rack of claim 1 wherein said first and second supporting bars are parallel to each other during said first storage mode.
3 . The clothing accessories supporting rack of claim 1 wherein said first and second supporting bars are parallel to each other during said second organizing mode.
4 . The clothing accessories supporting rack of claim 1 comprises one or more supporting frames, wherein said first suspension member is positioned approximately on top of the center of gravity of said one or more supporting frames during said first storage mode.
5 . The clothing accessory supporting rack of claim 1 wherein said mechanism comprises a second suspension member having a first end connected to a second edge of said supporting frame and a second end connected to said first suspension member or said external supporting member at a location proximate to said first suspension member to define said second organizing mode; and
said second suspension member is further configured to be disconnected from said first suspension member, or said external supporting member or said second edge to define said first storage mode.
6 . The clothing accessory supporting rack of claim 5 wherein the side view of said supporting frame, said first suspension member and said second suspension member define a triangle during said second organizing mode.
7 . The clothing accessory supporting rack of claim 1 wherein the side view of said first suspension member defines a vertical plane during said first storage mode and the side view of said frame is configured to position at an angle from said vertical plane during said second organizing mode.
8 . The clothing accessory supporting rack of claim 1 wherein said first supporting bar is configured to support a first necktie and said second supporting bar is configured to support a second necktie; wherein said clothing accessory supporting rack is further configured to provide gravitational non-slipping effect between said first and second neck ties during said first storage mode.
9 . The clothing accessory supporting rack of claim 1 wherein at least one of said parallel supporting bars is removable from said frame.
10 . The clothing accessory supporting rack of claim 9 wherein said removable supporting bar comprises a handle or a suspension member.
11 . The clothing accessory supporting rack of claim 1 wherein at least one of said parallel supporting bars comprises one or more hooks positioned below said parallel supporting bar for receiving a belt or a neck lace.
12 . The clothing accessory supporting rack of claim 1 wherein said first edge of said frame comprises one or more hooks for receiving a belt or a necklace.
13 . The clothing accessory supporting rack of claim 1 further comprising a second supporting frame having at least two parallel supporting bars, each provided for supporting multiple clothing accessory articles; wherein said second supporting frame comprises an edge connected to said first suspension member.
14 . The clothing accessory supporting rack of claim 1 further configured to be supported inside a closet during said first storage mode and to be supported outside a closet during said second organizing mode; wherein said first suspension member is configured to engaged with the supporting rod of a closet during said first storage mode and to engage with the pull handle of a closet door during said second organizing mode.
15 . A clothing accessory supporting rack comprising:
a first supporting frame having at least a first supporting bar provided for supporting a first necktie and a second supporting bar provided for supporting a second neck tie, and a mechanism configured to provide gravitational non-slipping effect between said first and second neckties during a first storage mode and to release said first and second neckties from said gravitational non-slipping effect during a second organizing mode.
16 . A clothing accessory supporting rack comprising:
a first supporting frame having at least a first and a second parallel supporting bars, each provided for receiving multiple clothing accessory articles; and a first suspension member connected to a first edge of said first supporting frame for suspending said clothing supporting rack inside a closet during a first storage mode and for engaging with the pull handle of a closet door during a second organizing mode; wherein said frame is further configured to swing away from said closet door for providing said second organizing mode.
17 . The clothing accessory supporting rack of claim 16 further comprises a mechanism to keep the position of said first and second supporting bars during said second organizing mode.
18 . The clothing accessory supporting rack of claim 16 further comprises a second supporting frame having at least a third and a fourth supporting bars, each parallel to said first and second parallel supporting bars.
19 . The clothing accessory supporting rack of claim 16 wherein the horizontal spacing between said parallel supporting bars during said second organizing mode is wider than the horizontal spacing between said parallel supporting bars during said storage mode.
20 . A clothing accessory supporting rack comprising:
a first supporting frame having at least a first supporting bar and a second supporting bars parallel to each other according to a front view of said clothing supporting rack, wherein each supporting bar is configured to receive multiple clothing accessory articles; a first suspension member showing a downward opening hook according to said front view; said first suspension member is connected to a first edge of said first supporting frame for suspending said clothing accessory supporting rack with an external supporting member; and said first supporting frame is further configured to rotate vertically against said first suspension member.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
