Abstract:
Apparatus is provided for protecting clothes hanging on a hanger bar in a closet from dust. The apparatus employs an elongated roller assembly that is provided with an extensible and retractable preferably transparent sheet member and also at least one elongated rod-like member. The roller assembly and the rod-like member(s) are in spaced, parallel relationship to the hanger bar. The relationship is such that the sheet member is extendible first transversely over the hanger bar to the rod-like member and then downwardly. Preferably the apparatus is width adjustable and can include a pair of adjustably transversely extending, and transversely elongated bracket structures that function to hold adjoining ends of the roller assembly and the rod-like member(s) and also to facilitate the apparatus installation in any one of various closets. The roller asembly may have a protective housing enclosing the sheet member. The housing has a slot to allow the sheet member to move therethrough and achieve its extended position.
