Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Aug. 18, 1914.
Application filed December 11, 1913. Serial No. 806,098.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, Jon A. PAsTALnNmo, a subject of the Emperor of Russia, residing at New Kensington, in the county of lVestmoreland and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Combined Step-Ladders and Ironing-Boards, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in combined step ladder and ironing boards.
The invention has for its primary object to provide a simple, cheap and effective device that can be used as an ironing board or step ladder, and when not in use, is capable of being folded into a comparatively compact space.
Briefly described, the invention comprises a member constituting an ironing board, with a pair of supports hinged thereto adj acent the wider end of the board and which supports, when the device is used as an ironing board, constitutes legs for supporting one end of the latter, and when the device is used as a step ladder, constitute braces for holding such step ladder, together with a ladder member which is hinged to the board near the smaller end of such board, and which, when the device is used as an ironing board, is adapted to fold against the underneath side of the board member.
The invention resides in the novel construction, combination and arrangement of parts as will be hereinafter more fully described and then claimed, and in describing the invention in detail, reference will be had to the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specification, and whereinlike numerals of reference will be employed to indicate like parts throughout the difierent views in which Figure 1 is a perspective view of the device as arranged for use as a step ladder. Fig. 2 is a similar view of the device as arranged for use as an ironing board, and, Fig. 3 is an edge elevation of the device in its folded form.
To put my invention into practice, 1 provide a board 5, preferably wider at one end than at the other, as is usual in ironing boards. Secured to the under face of the board 5 as by hinges 6 adjacent the larger end of the board is a pair of supports 7,
which constitute legs for one end of the board when the device is in use as an ironing board, the board being supported during such use at its other end in any convenient manner as by a chair or equivalent support 8. Secured to the under face of the board near its smaller end as by hinges 9 is one end of a ladder member 10, comprising in its construction the usual side rails and steps or rounds connecting them together, the side rails near their lower ends being each provided with an outwardly-extending pin 11 which are received in notches 12 in the outer faces of the legs 7 near their lower ends, when the device is used'as a step ladder as shown in Fig. 1. The said legs 7 in this use constitute braces for holding the ladder member 10 and the board 5 in their relative spaced positions as shown in Fig. 1.
The location of the hinges 6 on the under side of the board 5 permits the flat surfaces of the hinged ends of the legs 7 to abut the underside of the board, when side legs are in vertical position to sustain one end of the board in position for ironing, and also permits said legs to be freely swung into parallel relation with the underside of the board, when the parts of the device are folded together as shown in Fig. 3.
The manner in which the device is used either as an ironing board, or as a step ladder, is clearly apparent from reference to Figs. 1 and 2. The device is extremely simple and cheap to manufacture, and when not in use, the ladder member and the legs 7 both fold against the under face of the ironing board, so that the device occupies comparatively little space in its folded condition.
Having fully described my invention, what I claim is A combined ladder and ironing-board comprising a board, a ladder having its upper end hinged to the underside of the board near one end of the latter, and having alined pins projecting from the outer sides of its side bars, near the lower ends thereof, a pair of independent disconnected parallel braces hinged to the underside of the board adjacent to the opposite end thereof, and notched on their lower edges near their free ends to engage said pins, the hinges of said braces permitting the flat surfaces of the hinged ends of the braces to abut the under surface of the board, when said braces are 1n vertlcal posltlon and also permittlng said braces to be swung into par- In testimony whereof I aflix mysignature 1n presence of two Witnesses.
allel relation With the under surface of the JOE PASTALENIEC' 5 board, and said board being adapted to fold Witnesses:
upon and conceal said ladder When the I W. RILEY ALTER,
board is in position for ironing. LORETTA C. SHUSTER.
