Abstract
Abstract A carrier device for articles such as garments supported on hangers, wherein a flexible strap is formed into an endless band, the strap at one side of the band being threaded through one opening of a buckle frame constructed with two openings therein, a portion of the strap adjacent that which is threaded through said one opening being folded upon itself and passed through the other of said buckle openings to provide an adjustable loop on one side of the buckle for receiving the supporting hooks of the hangers, and a hand grip-carrying loop on the other side, the buckle frame being tiltable upon the application of a pulling or hanging force on the hand grip portion to grippingly engage the strap portions which are positioned in said other buckle opening and retain the hook-receiving loop in its adjusted position.
