IRONING BOARD. APPLIQIATION FILED MAR. 31, I920 1,347, 1 32, Patented July 20, 1920.
INVENTOR.
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
DEWEY TROUTMAN, OF HAWARDEN, IOWA.
' IRONING-BOARD.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented July 20,1920.
To all whom it may concern.
Be it known that I, DEWEY TROUTMAN, a
citizen of the United States of America,
and resident of Hawarden, in the county of Sioux and State of Iowa, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Ironing-Boards, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to laundry and particularly to ironing boards, the said invention having for its object the provision of novel means whereby the board may be attached to or removed from a table, which table constitutes a part of the support for the said board.
A still further object of this invention is to provide an ironing board having an auxiliary member or members coacting with a table for holding the board in a substantially horizontal position, the said device being adjustable to accommodate itself to table tops of different thicknesses.
A still further object of this invention is to produce a support for an ironing board having a member adjustable to engage-the under surface of the board, the said adjustable device having means for clamping it in different positions of adjustment, so that the board may be used in connection with table tops of different sizes.
With the foregoing and other objects in view, the invention consists in the details of construction, and in the. arrangement and combination of parts to be hereinafter more fully set forth and "claimed.
In describing the invention in detail, reference will be had to the accompanying drawings forming part of this specification wherein like characters denote corresponding parts in the several views, and in which Figure 1 illustrates a view in elevation of the ironing board embodying the invention applied to a table;
Fig. 2 illustrates a top plan view thereof, and
Fig. 3 illustrates an end view.
In these drawings, I have shown a supporting structure comprising the side rails 5 and 6 with connecting braces 7 to produce a rigid structure. The side rails near their upper ends have longitudinally extending slots 8, and the edges of said siderails have notches 9, each of said notches forming a shoulder 10 adapted to lie on the upper surface of a table top 11, and each of said notches also forms a shoulder 12 which is adapted to lie against the edge of said table, as fully shown in the drawing.
A rod 13 has ends extending through the slots 8, and the said rod is threaded at the ends, as shown at 14, adapted to engage nuts 15 and 16, each one of which lies against the inner surface of one of the side rails to hold the rails in spaced relation to each other, and the said threaded ends are also engaged by clamping nuts 17 and 18 which serve to hold the rod at different positions of adjustment with respect to the shoulders 10 and 12, so that the distance between the said rod and the said shoulders may be increased or diminished in proportion to the thickness of the top of the table with which it is to coact.
The ironing board or support proper is shown at 18 and said board overlies the rod 13 at one end of the said board and underlies the top of the table so as to bear against the under side of the table and against the said rod for the purpose of supporting the ironing board while in use.
It follows from an inspection of the drawing and from the foregoing description. that the supporting structure can be placed against the edge of a table and that thereafter the ironing board may be inserted between the rod and the top of the table and it will then be suspended for use, whereas the parts can be dissociated or disassembled by a reversal of the method of operation just described.
It follows furthermore, that the device can be stored in a comparatively small space and that it is of such strength and durability as to wlthstand wear usually endured by de ices of this kind.
I claim:
In an ironing board, a supporting member comprising side rails having notches in their edges to form shoulders for engaging the top and edge of a table top, the said side rails having slots extending longitudinally and terminating below the said notches, a rod adjustable in the said slots, the said rod having threaded ends projecting through the slots, clamping members threaded on the said rod and bearing against the rails, members on the said rod for holding the rails in spaced relation to each other, and an ironing hoard having a portion overlying the said rod and adapted to project under a table top whereby the said board is wedged between the said table top and the said rod.
DEWEY TROUTMAN.
