FRANK SCHULLER, OF JERSEY CITY, NEW JERSEY.
FLAT-IRON SUETORT AND SAFETY-GUARD. i
lamiera.
T0 all whom t may concern Be it known that I, FRANK SCHULLER, a subject of the Emperor of Austria-Hungary, residing at Jersey City, in the county of I-Iudson and State of New Jersey, United States of America, have invented new and useful Improvements in Flat-Iron Supports and Safety-Guards, of which the following is a specication.
My invention relates to improvements in supports and safety guards for flatirons and other heated articles, and it provides a device of this character which is simple in construction, eiicient in affording protection and yet does not impede the expediency with which the article to be supported thereon may be handled.
In the drawings annexed hereto and forming a part of this specification Figure 1 is a top plan view of a flatiron support and guard constructed according to my invention. Fig. 2 is a vertical section on the line 2 2 of Fig. 1 showing in detail the simple mechanism employed in the device of my invention.
Referring to the drawings, in which I have shown the preferred construction as embodied in a support and guard for flatirons, 1 designates an outer casing having a continuous side wall of substantially the same contour as a flatiron, but larger than the {iatiron in common use, having an inwardly projecting horizontal flange 1a, running around the bottom of the sidewall 1. Within the casing 1 and lying adjacent the walls thereof is a continuous guard wall 2 which, if desired, may be constructed of suitable fireproof material such as asbestos. Within the casing 1 and also within the guard wall 2 is mounted the framework having, mounted on suitable projections 3 of the bottom flange la, vertical posts 4, one in each corner of the casing 1, secured by screws 5 and a top plate 6 secured to the posts 4 by means of the screws 7. The top plate 6 has a cut out portion at 8 substantially the shape of a common flatiron, and within this cut out portion 8 is mounted the flatiron platform 9v resting on the resilient curved leaf springs 10, secured to the shaped girders or bridges 11 depending from and formed integral with the top plate 6 by means of the bolts 12 but allowing for lengthwise expansion by means of the slots 13. Depending from the girders 11 and integral therewith are the lugs 14 pivotally carrying thereon the bifurcated Specification of Letters Patent.

members l5 and 16 positioned oppositely with respect to each other within the casing. Each leg of the bifurcated members l5 and 16 carries a spring clip 17 at the end thereof, each of which engages a lug 18 carried near the bottom of the guard wall 2. This guard wall 2 being loosely confined between the outer casing 1 and the framework con sisting of the vertical posts 4 and the top plate 6, is adapted for vertical upward movement. Therefore it will be seen that if a fiatiron is placed on the platform 9 the latter will be depressed and since the latter carries the depending lugs 19 which engage the slots 20, of the bifurcated members 15 and 16, the legs of the members 15 and 16 will be caused to move upward into the position shown in dotted lines, at the same time carrying upward the guard wall 2 to a suiiicient height to surround and protect in an eficient manner the heated portion of the flatiron.
It will be evident that when the iron is removed from the platform 9 the guard wall will descend into the casing 1 and the platform 9 will resume its normal position by reason of the action of the spring 10 or by the weight of the guardwall 2, in which case;l the springs 10 may also be dispensed wit It is understood that I do not limit myself to the construction illustrated and described herein, nor to its application to a iatiron, but may resort to such modifications as fall within the scope of my claims.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim is 1. A support and guard for heated articles comprising in combination, an outer casing, a movable guard wall disposed in said outer casing, a depressible supporting platform adapted to hold heated articles, and means connecting said platform with said movable guard wall whereby upon depression of the platform the guard wall will move upwardly into a position to protect the heated article.
2. A support and guard for heated articles comprising in combination, an outer casing, a movable guard wall disposed in said casing, a depressible supporting platform adapted to hold heated articles, means connecting said platform with said movable guard wall whereby upon the depression of the platform the guard wall will move upwardly into a position to surround the said heated article, and means for returning said sides to their normal position.
3. A support and guard for heated articles, comprising in combi-nation, an outer easing, a movable guard wall disposed in said casing, a depressible supporting platform adapted to hold heated articles, means connecting said platform with said movable guard wall whereby upon depression of the platform the guard wall will move upwardly into a position to surround the heated article, and spring means for returning said platform and guard walls to their normal positions.
4. A Support and guard for heated articlescomprising in Combination, an outer casing having a continuous vertical wall, a continuous movable guard wall disposed in said casing adjacent the vertical wall thereof, a depressible supporting platform adapted to hold heated articles, means operated by said depressible platform for elevating said movable `guard wall, and spring means for returning said platform to its norma-l position.
5. A support and guard for heated articles, comprising in combination, an outer casing having a continuous vertical wall, a frame work disposed in said casing, a movable guard wall disposed between said framework and the vertical wall of said casing, a top-plate supported on said framework and having an opening therethrough, a depressible platform disposed in said opening, transverse girdeis carried by said top-plate supporting springs adapted to resiliently support said depressible platform, oppositely disposed bifurcated members pivotally carried by said transverse girders and having one end engaging said platform and the other end engaging said movable guard wall whereby upon thev depression of said platform said movable guard wall is moved upwardly into a position surrounding said heated article.
In testimony whereof I aix my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
