coat rack: The top picture is what I think a typical coat rack looks like:

However, some people apparently call something else a "coat rack" or "hall stand":

hall tree: I had never heard this term before, so I googled; and this is what I found:
http://www.houzz.com/photos/hall-trees
The page says that hall trees are also known as coat racks or stands. It may be that coat racks, hall trees, and hall stands -- like people -- come in different shapes and sizes. There are also hat racks, which sometimes look like coat racks!

Which reminds me of a joke: Two hats were hanging on a hat rack. One hat said to the other, "I'll stay here. You go on ahead."
