IRONING PAD.
APPLICATION FILED MAR. 4. 1918- 1 32 1 1 1 6 Patented N 0v. 11, 1919.
INVENTOR ATTOR N EY To all whom it may concern:
@FHIQE.
HAMILTON B. METZGER, 0F LIMA, OHIO.
IRONING-PAD.
Be it known that I, HAMILTON B. Marz- GER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Lima,- in the county of Allen and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Ironing-Pads, of WhlCh the following is a specification.
My invention relates to a waxing pad for sad irons, preferably constructed in the form of a rest.
A particular object is to provide a plurality of successively separable sheets, each having one or more openings filled wlth a wax or the equivalent, so as to be capable of removal to expose a new supply of wax as desired from time to time. Serv1ent to this object, I aim to provide, in some 1nstances, disalined openings for retaining the waxso that as the sheets are removed the point of wearing contact with the wax will change and thus the covering which the 1r0n directly engages will be more'evenly worn.
Another object is to provide a novel and effective, yet readily operable fastening means for the covering,as will be later described in detail.
Further I aim to mount the said sheets on a base have the fastening means cooperate with the base and use a means for supporting the base which will prevent its sliding when engaged by the iron.
My object in using the wax is to. provide a means to coat the iron so that it will not rust and require frequent scouring and cleaning and so as to remedy roughnesses in the iron.
With the above and additional objects such as are hereinafter set forth, in view, the invention has been embodied; in one preferred form as illustrated in accompanying drawings, wherein Figure 1 is a plan view of a pad constructed in accordance with my invention;
Fig. 2 is a side elevation; Fig. 3 is a longitudinal central sectional view, and
Fig. 4 is a detail perspective view of the anchor for the cover fastening means.
Referring specifically to the drawings wherein like reference characters designate like .or similar parts, I provide a base 5 which may be of wood, supported by legs or feet 6, preferably of rubber so that they will frictionally engage the top of the table or other surface and prevent sliding of the pad When engaged by the iron.
Specification of Letters Patent. Application filed March 4, 1918. Serial No. 220,324.
Patented Nov. 11, was.
Upon the base, a plurality of sheets 7 are piled, preferably being of cardboard Through the sheets 7, openings 8 are provided, which are filled with a suitable war.
'9, as shown and which secures the sheets together and to the base. Any suitable wax will sufiice but I find a mixture of one-half beeswax and one-half paraffin preferable. Some of the openings 8 of the different sheets are disalined so that as the wax therein is presented. to the covering herein.-
more nails or the like 11. A groove 12 is provided around the base 5 and a curved bar 13 of this anchor extends thereinto across the portion of the covering disposed therein. Lugs 14 extend from the bar 13 and wires 15 are pivoted thereto for vertical movement. At the point of the pad these wires are twisted together as at-l6 and then formed into a ring 17. Springs 18 are formed as parts of the wires 15, being re- .tractile so as to maintain the wires in the groove of the base clamping the lower portion of the cover therein.
In use, as the heated iron passes over the cover, the wax is melted. This molten wax permeates the covering and thus a film of wax is transferred to the iron to fill roughnesses on the ironing surface and to' lubricate it so that the said surface will not rust and require frequent scouring and cleaning to prevent injury to the articles ironed' The film will also prevent sticking of the iron to the articles, prevent its gather-- ing starch-from the articles while the covering will keep sediment from within the cover, as in the wax, from reaching the ironing surface. When the initial supply of wax is used, one of the sheets may be re moved and:discarded and the other sheets may be successively removed and discarded as new supplies are desired. Since the wax openings are disalined, the points of wear 1 raised. I To accomplish this result, the ring 17 is engaged and pulled away from the pad, so as to expand springs 18, whereupon it is. moved downwardly to move the arms 15 and. springs 18 out of the groove 12, to release the lower edge of the covering. The operation in fastening the covering in plaoe, of course, .is the reverse to that described.
Since merely one preferred embodiment of the inventionhas been illustrated and described, it is to be understood that changes in the details may be resorted towithin the spirit and scope as defined by the appended claims.
I claim l. A pad for irons comprising a base, a cover, an anchoring bar permanently securing a portion of said cover to said base, and
a fastening means pivoted to the anchoring bar including opposed spring members whereby the remaining portion of said cover may be detachably secured to the base.
2. A pad for irons comprising a base provided with a continuous groove in its edge portion, a cover, a permanent anchor bar located in a portion of said groove and clamping a part of said cover to the base, and a fastening means for said cover pivoted to the anchor bar and adapted to rest in the remaining portion of said groove, said fastening means including oppositely arranged spring members to draw said means into clamping relation with the cover and the base.
3. A pad for irons comprising a base of like shape provided with a continuous groove in its edge portion, a cover, a permanent'anchor barlocated at the heel of said base and in said groove, said anchor bar permanently securing a portion of said cover, extensions formed on and at an angle to said anchor bar and provided with apertures, and a fastening means journaled in said apertures of said extensions comprising opposed spring members for detachably holding the free portions of the cover to the base.
4. A pad for irons having a base, a covering, a bar securing said covering perma- 'nently at 'a portion thereof to the base, a
ering.
6. A pad for irons comprising a base, a cover, an anchoring bar permanently securing a portion of said cover to said base, a
plurality of separable sheets carried on said base, and provided with vertically alined openings, wax disposed in said openings, said openings being disalined horizontally to transfer the point of contact of the wax with respect to the cover as the different sheets are removed, and a fastening means pivoted to the anchoring bar including opposed spring members whereby the remain ing portion of said cover may be detachably secured to the base.
'7. A pad for irons comprising a base, a cover, an anchoring bar permanently securing a portion of said cover to said base, a plurality of superposed sheets arranged on said base and having vertically registering apertures forming pockets for the reception of a block of wax, said pockets being arranged at different elevations whereby a fresh supply of wax is exposed on the removal of an upper sheet, and a fastening means pivoted to the anchoring bar including opposed spring members whereby the remaining portion of said cover may be de tachably secured to the base.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
