SAD-IRON SUPPORT.
Specication of Letters Patent.
Patented Jan. 23, 1917.
Application led March 27, 1916. Serial No. 86,875.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, EVEN J. ROHNE, a citizen of the United States, residing at Minneapolis, in the county of Hennepin and State of Minnesota, have invented certain new and useful Improvementsin Sads Iron Supports; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
My invention relates to improvements in supports for sad-irons; and, to this end, the invention consists of the novel devices and combinations of .devices hereinafter described and defined in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings, which illustrate the invention, like characters indicate like parts throughout the several views.
Referring to the drawings, ,Figure 1 is a side elevation of a sad-iron having the invention applied thereto, some parts being shown in different positions by means of broken lines; Fig. 2 is a view, partly in plan and partly in horizontal section taken on the line x55 of Fig. 5; Fig. 3 is a view in side elevation showing the opposite side of the sad-iron from that shown in Fig. l; Fig. 4 is a rear end elevation of the parts shown in Fig. 1; Fig. 5 is a front end elevation of the support .removed from the sad-iron, some parts being illustrated by means of broken lines and some parts removed; Fig. 6 is a front end elevation of the parts shown in Fig. 1; and
`Fig. 7 is a perspective view of the support removed from the sad-iron, some parts being illustrated by means of broken lines.
Of the parts of the electric sad-iron illus# trated, it is important to note the body l, handle 2, bracket 3 to which the handle 2 is secured, screws 4 which detachably connect the handle bracket 3 to the body 1, and socket 5 for receiving the customary plug, not shown', to which the electric iron is attached. illustrated in the drawings, it is, of course, understood that the invention may be applied to any form or make of sad-irons.
Referring now to the invention, the numeral 6 indicates a flat body member inter- While an electric sad-iron isl posed between the handle bracket 3 and the body 1 and is rigidly but detachably secured in position by the screws 4, which are passed through apertures 7 formed in said body member. The front end of the body member 6 is bent upward to form a bracket 8 and the rear end thereof is bifurcated to afford a pair of spring prongs 9. The free ends of these prongs 9 are rolled to afford a pair of axially alined bearings 10, which extend transversely of the sad-iron. On the inner longitudinal edge of one of the prongs 9 is integrally formed a bearing 11, which extends at right angles. to the bearings 10 and is axially alined with a vertically elongated bearing 12 formed in the bracket 8.-
Journaled in the bearings l0, is a rod 13, the ends of which are bent laterally to j form alpair of legs 14, which swing to and from lowered positions longitudinally of the sad-iron, inward of the longitudinal edges thereof. The free end of each leg 14 is bent to afford a foot 15, which, when the legs 14 are lowered, extends under the sad-iron, as best shown in Figs. 4 and 5. Stops 16 are formed by bending the legs 14 at their junction with the rod 13. These stops 16 engage the top of the body 1, when the legs 14 are raised, and hold the same in rearwardly and upwardly extended positions, as best shown in Figs. 1 and 3.
A shaft 17 is journaled in the bearings 11 and 12 and the rear end thereof is bent to form a cam linger 18, which engages one of the legs 14, as best shown in Figs. 4 and 7. The forward end of the shaft 17is bent laterally to form a leg 19, which is identical with the legs14, but swings at a right angle thereto. The lower end of the leg 19 is bent to form a foot 20, which, when the leg 19 is lowered, extends transversely under the point of the iron, as best shown in Figs. 1, 4 and 5.
A pinion 21 is secured tolthe shaft 17 between the bracket 8 and leg 19. Intermediately fulcrumed to the bracket 8, for movement transversely of the handle 2, is
The leg 19 is lowered into an operative position by pressing downward on the nger piece 23 and as the leg 19 is thus positively lowered, the legs 14 will follow into like positions under the action of their own weight. It is important to note that this finger piece is located close to the front end of the handle 2, so that the same Amay be engaged by the thumb of the operators hand grasping the handle 2. By thus loeating the finger piece 23, the legs 14 and 19 are lowered by a very natural and easy movement of the hand. When the legs 14 and 19 are lowered, their feet extend under the sad-iron and are frictionally held between the body of the iron and the support upon which they rest. Under the weight of the sad-iron, the prongs 9 yield and the front end of the shaft 17 raises in the bearing 12, sufficiently to allow the sad-iron to rest directly and securely upon the legs 15 and 20. When the sad-iron is lifted, the spring 20, acting upon the lever 22, moves the segment 24 over the pinion 21 which,
in turn, rotates the shaft 17 and raises theV legs 14 and 19. Vhen the legs of the support are raised, they are entirely out of the wayand do not, in anyway, hindr the operator or obstruct his Vview of the sadiron in guiding the same over the work.
' The above described device, while extremely simple and of extremely small cost to manufacture, can be very easily applied to and removed from a sad-iron.
lVhat I claim is 1. A sad-iron support including a plurality of movable legs secured to a sad-iron, said legs having feet on which the sad-iron rests when the legs are lowered.
2. A sad-iron support including a plurality of movable legs secured to a sad-iron, yielding means tending to raise the legs, said legs having feet on which thc sad-iron rests when the legs are lowered, the weight of the sad-iron on said feet holding the legs lowered against the tension of said yielding means.
3. A sad-iron support including a plurality of movable legs Secured to n sad-iron for swinging movement and limited endwise movement, said legs having feet on which the sad-iron rests when the legs are e lowered.
