IRONING-BOARD.
and refers more particularly to an ironing board of the-folding type and one which is preferably also provided with a sleeve board, although the invention in its broader aspects is not limited to this particular combination. o
Among the objectsofthe invention are to is simple in construction and can be economically manufactured but which will have great rigidity; to provide a construction in which the parts, including the sleeve board, can be folded to lie adjacent the main board; to so construct and arrange the parts that when the board frame is opened it will automatically move to its locking position and can be sprung'into a securely locked position; to
provide a construction preferably of the three-point supporting type in-which the standard which engages the floor at two points is firstbi'ought back against'a permanent abutment and locked in engagement against such abutment when the other parts are sprung into locked position; to rovide an improved, arrangement for adjusting the board to various heights; to provide a novel 7 mounting of the sleeve board with reference to the main board;
to, 'provide improved means for securing the cover for the pad 'to the board; and in general to provide animpr'ived and simplified ironingjboard'cons st-rnction'of the character above referred to;
i lie invention also details of construction and arrangements and combinations of'parts as will more fully hereinafter appear.

Describing in detail thebocliment "of my. invention shown in the designates the main ironing )oard and B the frame therefor which is pivotally secured to one end of the board by a bolt or other pivot member This bolt extends through lugs or projections I) and D permanently fastened to the board and towhich lugs there is secured a stationary abutment member E. standardjF is provided with legs G and. G. which are pivoted by means ofthe pivot member (land are so-arranged that the rear sides of the legs G and G strike against the abutment member E whenthe standard F is swungopen to its operative position.

paritcular ems The i Preferably the diagonal'leg member H is formed of spaced portionsH and H between .which; the lockin member. J extends Ktone end this lock ingbar J is provided withhooked claws i and K which ffit ov'era-cro'ss bar K carried by the standard F; The other end of the locking bar is beveled at-L 'andswunginto locking engagement with the-oppositely bevof 'the adjustable locking memeled end L be1-..;L Suitable screws-:01 other securing devices L :are employed for the locking member L whereby the latter-'can'be locked in; various positions of adjustment toward or from the stationary abutment E.-
T he arrangement of parts is suchthat'in opening the board frame,,the standard F is swung back. until the rear sideof its legs strike against the stationarya'butment E;
The diagonal le'gH is then opened and the locking bar beveled end iextends into engagement with the locking" member, while the claws K and i K on its opposite'end are sprung into lockmg engagement with the cross bar K The portion of the locking bar adjacent the claws K and K is-preferably beveled at M so as to, permit the locking barto' ride. overthe cross bar K and spring intolocking engage- .swung to a position w-hereits ment. However, if. desired this end-canbe engaged first and the beveled end vL. sprung 1nto locking engagement with the abutment desired :the screws L can, be loosened and the locking member L tightthe locking bar is tensioned so'that great for the entire device without the necessity of using extraneous fastening means. I
To permit the board to be ad usted to accommodate the heights of various users,
I have provided a novel vertical adjustment. This comprises forming an adjustable base N on the lower end of the standard F and a sliding bar 0 on the lower end of the diagonal leg H. By loosening the bolts N and Othes'e members can be raised or lowered and then locked in the desired position of adjustment by tightening up the bolts N and 0. Improved means are also provided for securing the pad Q, in place. For this purpose the lower surface of the board A is provided with a plurality of eyelets Q through. which there can be laced the securing member for the pad cover Q The invention also contemplates an improved construction wherein the iron holder S also serves as a support for the sleeve board T when the latter is in use. The holder S at its rear end is provided with a raised flangev S which will serve to prevent the iron from slipping off when'the opposite end of the board is raised and also has a socket member S into which the pin T of the sleeve board T fits. Said socket member has anopening therein with which lug upon the pin T may be engaged to hold the sleeve board in one position of rotative adjustment. i l/hen not in usethe sleeve board. is'carried by the locking bar J which hasa seat J and a retaining strip J beneath which the outer end. of the sleeve board extends, while the pin T extends through an aperture T in the locking bar J and is locked in position by a spring retaining member Ti Thus when not in. use'the sleeve board is stored where it is out of the way and is also automatically folded against the board A'when the supporting frame of the latter is moved to its inoperative position. f From the above description it will be apparent that the construction is one which can be economically manufactured and readily adjusted to its various positions, while at the same time it has great rigidity because of the springing of the parts into locked position. Moreover this arrangement permits of a relatively unobstructed lower sur face near the free end of the board A, while the three-pointsupport allowsit to automatically adjust itself in a firm position irre':
spective of the level of the floor. :Various changes however in the details of construction fand arrangements and combinations of parts canbe'made within the scope "of my invention.-
' -What I claim as my invention is .lfln'an ironing table, the combination v said standard 1 porting saidironing with a board, of a three-point supporting frame therefor comprising. a standard adapted to engage the floor at spaced points, a diagonally projecting supporting leg, an adjustable abutment secured to said board, and a locking bar having a resilient portion adapting it to be sprung into position between said standard and said adjustable abut- I standard and leg 1n ment for fastening said iixed position. r I r 2. In an ironing table, the combination with a board, of an abutment member rigidly secured thereto, a supporting frame for said board having a standard pivotally secured to the board and rockable to a position against said abutment, an adjustable abut-' ment also secured to said board, and a locking bar having a resilient portion adapting it to be sprung into locking position between I and adjustable abutment so as to press said standard against said abutment when the table is in position of use.
3. In an ironing table, the combination with a board, of a supporting standard pivoted to one end of said board, a support.- ing leg pivoted to the same end of said board and'occupying a diagonalposition in use and a resilient locking bar pivoted intermediately upon said leg, an abutment for one end of said locking bar upon the lower portionv of said standard and an abutment for the other end of said locking bar, longitudinally adjustable upon said board to stressisaid locking bar 7 4. In an ironing table, the combination with a board, of an abutment carried by the board, a substantially vertical standard engaging said board adjacent one end of the same, a coacting supportingleg extending diagonally from one end of the boardbeneath the latter and said diagonal leg having a substantially rigid portion at one side thereof for engagement with 'saidstandard and having a resilient ortion at the other side of the leg engageable with the abutment and, adapted to be and secure rigidity.-
a member pivoted upon rigid relation between the board and frame.
5; An ironing table including a board equipped with an face and a supporting structure consisting of, a supporting standard and a supporting,
leg secured to said board at a point remote from the abutment and an inherently resilient' locking bar pivotally mounted intermediate its ends on said supporting leg, one end thereofbeing engageable withthe support ing standard and the opposite end being flexed beneath said abutment'for rigidlysup board. 7.
