主权项

1. A device for hanging an item, comprising a support-engaging portion and a deformable elongate member, the support-engaging portion defining at least an aperture for receiving a support for hanging the device, the aperture being bounded widthwise by opposite depending inner side surfaces of the support-engaging portion that define therebetween a maximum diameter of the aperture, and the elongate member extending from the support-engaging portion to a distal end of the elongate member, the elongate member comprising a connection mechanism such that the elongate member can be deformed back upon itself and connected at the distal end thereof to at least one of the support-engaging portion or the elongate member to form a loop in such a way that when the elongate member is in its deformed state, a substantially flat spacer is defined at an intended lower end of the loop so that the item rests upon the flat spacer when in use, and wherein the distal end of the elongate member has a width smaller than the maximum diameter of the aperture.
