1 o 0Z5 whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, W'KLLIAM J. IQENNEDY a citizen or" the United States. residing Greenville, in the county of Hunt and State oi Texas, have invented new and useful Improvements in Ironing-Tables, 0i which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to ironing and more particularly to that type Which is adapted to be knocked down so as to be packed in a small compass for transportation or storage.

One or the principal objects of the invention is to provide .a simple and efiicientdevice this character which may be cheaply constructed, readily set up in operative p0sition, and in which receptacles are carried in a novel manner for the reception of sprinkled and ironed clothes.

Further objects of this invention will appear as the following specific description is ready in connection with the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this application, and in which Figure-1 is a side elvation. Fig. 2 is a similar view taken from the opposite side. Fig. 3 is an end elevation. Fig. 4 is a section on the line H of Fig. 1. Fig. 5 is a detail section on the line 5 5 of Fig. 1. F 6

tables A is a detail top plan view with parts broken Referring more particularly to the drawings, 1 represents suitable supporting feet which are properly mortised and have socured thereto the standards 2 which have their upper ends seated in rnortises 3 formed in the heads 4. The upper end of each standard is also provided with a suitable notch 6 to receive lugs 7 carried upon the board 8. These lugs prevent lateral movement of the board upon the standards and cross battens 9 carried by the board engage the heads and prevent longitudinal move ment of the board on the standards. The board is connected to the heads and held in operative position thereon by hooks and eyes 11 carried by the battens and heads, as shown.

The standards are held separated relation by means of a brace 12 which has its ends provided with tenons to as the inortises 13 formed in the w This brace bar 12 is held in position upon the standards by the hooks and. eyes lei which are connected to the brace car and standards respectively.

Removahly supported upon opposi"'- oi the brace bar 12 are receptacles f closing hds 1. These receptacles are p oand vided tor Sp inhied and ironed clothes 1 are reinovably mounted upon the trace car by means of the hook rods "22 which pass entirely through the receptacle showiiin Fig. 5, and have their lower ends bent clenched in the bottom of the receptacle; shown. in said figure. lhe board is provided at one end with a suitable den er in which such things as iron liars, was.

parafiin, or other ironing req'ui. ites may carried. A suitable hook is carried by one of the lids 21 and is adapted to eng n 's over the other lid so as to hold in open position. This is preferable \V ironing because the dampened clothes may toe readily taken from one lair; and the ho); being open prevents the iron-ed portions of the clothes from getting upon the door.

Reinovaoly secured to the standard immediately below the small end i th table is a platform which is preterahy structed of a "frame. whose and ends are connected toget-herzhy a. fora iinons u)- ric of any suitahie character.
