The superior wig mount 163 is discussed in greater detail elsewhere in this disclosure.


Each of the plurality of hangers 103 is a structure that projects radially away from the center axis of the telescopic stanchion 101. Each of the plurality of hangers 103 projects away from the telescopic stanchion 101 in the manner of a cantilever. Each of the plurality of hangers 103 suspends a hairpiece selected from the one or more hairpieces 191 above the supporting surface 192. The selected hairpiece hangs from the free end 188 of a hanger selected from the plurality of hangers 103. The plurality of hangers 103 comprises a collection of individual hangers 130. Each individual hanger 130 comprises a wig mount 131, an extension structure 132, and a fastener 133. The extension structure 132 is further defined with a fixed end 187 and a free end 188. The individual hanger 130 refers to any hanger selected from the plurality of hangers 103. Any selected individual hanger 130 is identical to each individual hanger 130 remaining in the plurality of hangers 103.


The wig mount 131 is a disk-shaped structure that attaches to the free end 188 of the extension structure 132. The disk shape of the wig mount 131 distributes the weight of the one or more hairpieces 191 over a larger surface area than the use of a hook would provide. The increase of surface area allows the wig mount 131 to minimize the stress applied to the hairpiece selected from the one or more hairpieces 191 while the selected hairpiece hangs from the individual hanger 130. The wig mount 131 forms the superior surface of the individual hanger 130.


The extension structure 132 is a plate structure that creates a span of distance between the wig mount 131 and the telescopic stanchion 101.

The clip 171 is a hook that inserts into a slot selected from a plurality of slots selected from the group consisting of the first plurality of slots 151, the second plurality of slots 152, and the third plurality of slots 153. The clip 171 attaches the individual hanger 130 to the telescopic stanchion 101. The shoulder 172 is a notch formed in the fixed end 187 of the extension structure 132. The shoulder 172 is formed such that the extension structure 132 of the individual hanger 130 will sit flush against the telescopic stanchion 101.


The superior wig mount 163 is identical to the wig mount 131 of any individual hanger 130 selected from the plurality of hangers 103. The superior wig mount 163 attaches to the superior end of the telescopic stanchion 101 such that a hairpiece selected from the one or more hairpieces 191 can be suspended from the telescopic stanchion 101.

The first end 181 of the first arm 111 attaches to the superior end of the pedestal 102 such that the first arm 111 projects perpendicularly away from the pedestal 102 in the superior direction. The third end 183 of the second arm 112 inserts into the second end 182 of the first arm 111 where it is secured in position by the first detent 121. The fifth end 185 of the third arm 113 inserts into the fourth end 184 of the second arm 112 where it is secured in position by the second detent 122. The superior wig mount 163 attaches to the sixth end 186 of the third arm 113 such that the end of the superior wig mount 163 is parallel to the supporting surface 192.


The fastener 133 of any individual hanger 130 selected from the plurality of hangers 103 inserts into a slot selected from the plurality of slots selected from the group consisting of the first plurality of slots 151, the second plurality of slots 152, and the third plurality of slots 153.


The following definitions were used in this disclosure:


Cantilever: As used in this disclosure, a cantilever is a beam or other structure that projects away from an object and is supported on only one end. A cantilever is further defined with a fixed end and a free end. The fixed end is the end of the cantilever that is attached to the object. The free end is the end of the cantilever that is distal from the fixed end.


Center: As used in this disclosure, a center is a point that is: 1) the point within a circle that is equidistant from all the points of the circumference; 2) the point within a regular polygon that is equidistant from all the vertices of the regular polygon; 3) the point on a line that is equidistant from the ends of the line; 4) the point, pivot, or axis around which something revolves; or, 5) the centroid or first moment of an area or structure. In cases where the appropriate definition or definitions are not obvious, the fifth option should be used in interpreting the specification.


Center Axis: As used in this disclosure, the center axis is the axis of a cylinder or a prism. The center axis of a pyramid refers to a line formed through the apex of the pyramid that is perpendicular to the base of the pyramid. When the center axes of two cylinder, prism or pyramidal structures share the same line they are said to be aligned. When the center axes of two cylinder, prism or pyramidal structures do not share the same line they are said to be offset.


Cylinder: As used in this disclosure, a cylinder is a geometric structure defined by two identical flat and parallel ends, also commonly referred to as bases, which are circular in shape and connected with a single curved surface, referred to in this disclosure as the face. The cross-section of the cylinder remains the same from one end to another. The axis of the cylinder is formed by the straight line that connects the center of each of the two identical flat and parallel ends of the cylinder. Unless otherwise stated within this disclosure, the term cylinder specifically means a right cylinder which is defined as a cylinder wherein the curved surface perpendicularly intersects with the two identical flat and parallel ends.


Detent: As used in this disclosure, a detent is a device for positioning and holding a first object relative to a second object such that the position of the first object relative to the second object is adjustable.


Disk: As used in this disclosure, a disk is a cylindrically shaped object that is flat in appearance.


Extension Structure: As used in this disclosure, an extension structure is an inert physical structure that is used to extend the span of the distance between any two objects.


Geometrically Similar: As used in this disclosure, geometrically similar is a term that compares a first object to a second object wherein: 1) the sides of the first object have a one to one correspondence to the sides of the second object; 2) wherein the ratio of the length of each pair of corresponding sides are equal; 3) the angles formed by the first object have a one to one correspondence to the angles of the second object; and, 4) wherein the corresponding angles are equal. The term geometrically identical refers to a situation where the ratio of the length of each pair of corresponding sides equals 1.


Hairpiece: As used in this disclosure, a hairpiece is a device that is used to augment the natural hair of a person for fashion or cosmetic purposes.

Inferior: As used in this disclosure, the term inferior refers to a directional reference that is parallel to and in the same direction as the force of gravity.


Inner Dimension: As used in this disclosure, the term inner dimension describes the span from a first inside or interior surface of a container to a second inside or interior surface of a container. The term is used in much the same way that a plumber would refer to the inner diameter of a pipe.


Load Path: As used in this disclosure, a load path refers to a chain of one or more structures that transfers a load generated by a raised structure or object to a foundation, supporting surface, or the earth.


Notch: As used in this disclosure, a notch is: 1) an indentation formed in an edge; or 2) a cavity or aperture formed within a surface.


Outer Dimension: As used in this disclosure, the term outer dimension describes the span from a first exterior or outer surface of a tube or container to a second exterior or outer surface of a tube or container. The term is used in much the same way that a plumber would refer to the outer diameter of a pipe.


Pedestal: As used in this disclosure, a pedestal is an intermediary load bearing structure that that transfers a load path between a supporting surface and an object, structure, or load.


Plate: As used in this disclosure, a plate is a smooth, flat and rigid object that has at least one dimension that: 1) is of uniform thickness; and 2) that appears thin relative to the other dimensions of the object. Plates often have a rectangular or disk-like appearance.


Prism: As used in this disclosure, a prism is a three-dimensional geometric structure wherein: 1) the form factor of two faces of the prism are congruent; and, 2) the two congruent faces are parallel to each other. The two congruent faces are also commonly referred to as the ends of the prism. The surfaces that connect the two congruent faces are called the lateral faces. In this disclosure, when further description is required a prism will be named for the geometric or descriptive name of the form factor of the two congruent faces. If the form factor of the two corresponding faces has no clearly established or well-known geometric or descriptive name, the term irregular prism will be used. The center axis of a prism is defined as a line that joins the center point of the first congruent face of the prism to the center point of the second corresponding congruent face of the prism. The center axis of a prism is otherwise analogous to the center axis of a cylinder. A prism wherein the ends are circles is commonly referred to as a cylinder.


Radial: As used in this disclosure, the term radial refers to a direction that: 1) is perpendicular to an identified central axis; or, 2) projects away from a center point.


Stanchion: As used in this disclosure, a stanchion refers to a vertical pole, post, or support.


Superior: As used in this disclosure, the term superior refers to a directional reference that is parallel to and in the opposite direction of the force of gravity.


Supporting Surface: As used in this disclosure, a supporting surface is a horizontal surface upon which an object is placed. Within this disclosure, it is assumed that the object is placed on the supporting surface in an orientation that is appropriate for the normal or anticipated use of the object.


Suspend: As used in this disclosure, to suspend an object means to support an object such that the inferior end of the object does not form a significant portion of the load path of the object.


Telescopic: As used in this disclosure, telescopic is an adjective that describes an object made of sections that fit or slide into each other such that the object can be made longer or shorter by adjusting the relative positions of the sections.


Vertical: As used in this disclosure, vertical refers to a direction that is either: 1) perpendicular to the horizontal direction; 2) parallel to the local force of gravity; or, 3) when referring to an individual object the direction from the designated top of the individual object to the designated bottom of the individual object. In cases where the appropriate definition or definitions are not obvious, the second option should be used in interpreting the specification. Unless specifically noted in this disclosure, the vertical direction is always perpendicular to the horizontal direction.
