Abstract

195,242. Everitt, R. W. Feb. 25, 1922. Trouser presses.- An ordinary trouser press is mounted at its ends or sides upon pivoted trunnions in vertical supports, and combined with the press, as one structure, is either a table, or another trouser press, or a box, or other useful article. Means are provided to fix the press rigidly in a horizental position. Two boards a, c, Fig. 2, are rigidly distanced apart by transverse strips d, the board a forming the base of the press, and the board c a table-top, box-bottom, or boxsupport. The board a carries the usual bolts f, and a top press-board g. Projecting from the ends of the board a are trunnions 2 provided by the ends of a rod j, Fig. 4. The trunnions engage holes in uprights n, Fig. 2, on bases n<2> suitably stayed together. Either the press or the table or box can be turned uppermost. A wedgelike device r<2>, carried at the end cf a spring-arm r<3> on the upright n, can be sprung into position to hold the press firm. Detachable longitudinal rods u constitute boot racks.
