JOHN MANZ,"'OF nn'rno r, MICHIGAN.
CONDUCTOR surronr.
Application filed .Tuly 23, 1923. Serial No. 653,401
To'aZZ whom it may mm.-
Be it known that I, JOHN MANZ, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Detroit, in the county of Wayne and State of Michigan, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Conductor Supports, of which the following is a-specification, reference being had thereinto the accompanying drawings. 1
This invention relates to a support for the supply Wire for an electric flat iron, and it has for its object to provide a device which may bereadily placed in position upon any ordinary ironing board or table to support the electric conductor out of the way of the articles to be ironed. I I
A further object of the invention is'to provide a support capable of readyad-justment to hold the wire at different heights and having a form of mounting enabling the support to be swung entirely out of the wa if the operator so desires.
ther and further objects ,will appear in connection with the following specification, reference being had to the drawings formin a portion thereof in which T igure 1 is a perspective view showing the support in operative position in full lines anal in inoperative position in dotted lines, an
Fig. 2 is a plan view of the device, a portion being shown in section.
The support consists of a U-shaped member 1 having a spring 2 adapted to engage the underside of an ironing board or table 8, a standard 4 being pivoted upon the base 5 of the U-shaped clamping member by means of a pivot 6.
A spring 7 secured upon the pivot 6 presses with its opposite concaved ends agailist the outer surface of the standard 4 to hold it securely within a recess or groove formed within the base 5 when the standard is in the upright position indicated in Fig. 1
in full lines, the spring also acting to hold the rod or standard 4 within a transverse re cess 8 which extends at right angles to the groove or recess previously mentioned.
In Fig. 1, the standard is shown in dot-ted lines as turned at right angles to the base of the clamp member 1 and lying parallel with the edge of the board 3.
The standard 4 preferabl consists of a cylindrical rod rovided wit a plurality of notches 9 s aced at intervals remote from the pivot 6 an upon the outer end of the rod is mounted a spiral spring .10 of a-size-ca of being slid easily longitudinally o the rod. The inner end of the spring is formed with a transverse portion 11 adapted to enable gagetwithin the notches .9 tohold the spring at various ositions of adjustment longitudinally of tlie standard 4.; The outer end of the spring is bent into engagement with a clamp member 12 having spring pressed jaws, this clamp memberresembhng a familiarform of clothes pin, the jaws however being formed with opposed recesses toprO- vide a channel 13 adapted'to receivean elec trio conductor 14 forming the supply wire for an electric sad ironl5.
The operation of the device will be obvious from the illustration, the flexible spring 10 being capable of yielding vto'accommodate itself tothe various movements of the iron while holding. the conductor 14 in any desired position of adjustmentgabove the surface. of -the board. The spring member.7
yields readily to pivotal movement of the standard 4 so that the device may be swung down either to the right or left in Fig. 1, so that the standard will lie parallel with the table and entirely out of the way of any work placed thereon. The spring fingers of the clamp member 12 may readily be 0 ened to enable the conductor to be with rawn therefrom when desired, and the spring 2 yields to permit ready withdrawal of the clamp member 1 from the tablewhenever desired. The space between the parallel legs of the U-shaped clamp will be considerably greater than the average thickness of anironing board, and this extra space will permit yielding of the flexible spring 2, so that the clamp member l may rock transversely of the plane of the ironing board if an extreme strain is applied to the standard 4 or the spring 10, before pivotal movement of the standard on the ivot 6 will occur.
It will be seen that t ere is thus provided a simple, inexpensive and efficient holder of sufficient rigidity to sustain the supply wire of a flat iron out of the way of the work to be ironed, while at the same time there is provided all the necessary flexibility to permit free movement of the flat iron throughout it range of operation.
It will be understood that the details of construction herein described and illustrated may be modified without departing from the principle of the invention or sacrificin any. i.
of its advantages. The invention is t are g amazes fore claimed broadly within the full and legitimate scope of the appended claims.
I claim 1. A support comprising a standard, clamping means carried by one end of said standard, a spiral 5 ring mounted upon said standard and slidable longitudinally thereof, and a clamp carried by the free end of said spiral spring.
2. A support comprising a standard having a notch formed in the side thereof, a spiral spring slidably adjustable upon said standard and having a portion thereof adapted for engagement with said notch whereby the spring may be held from slidable movement, a clamp member carried by the free end of said spring, and clamping means carried by said standard.
3. A support comprising a standard, a U- shaped clamp member having its base grooved to receive said standard, a pivot connecting the standard and the base, a spring mounted upon said pivot and bearing against the outer side of the standard to hold it in contact with the base, and a spring secured to one of the legs of the U-shaped member and lying within the interior of the U .and having its free end spaced from the other leg of said member whereby when the U-shaped clamp is placed upon the edge of a table or other support with the legs on opposite sides thereof, the spring will bear yieldably against the surface of the table to permit tilting of the U-shaped clamp with removed angularly thereto.
4. A support for the cable of an electric iron adapted to 'be used on an ironing board, comprising a standard pivotally attached to the edge of an ironing board with its pivot point below the upper surface of. the board and supported so that it may be swung into parallelism relative to an edge of the ironin board and below the upper surface thereo when not in use.
5. A support for the cable of an electric tool adapted to be used adjacent a board, comprising a standard having one end thereof pivotally mounted on the edge of the board below the upper surface of said board so that said standard may be swun to a position below the upper surface of the board, said standard having a free flexible portion for supporting the cable.
6. The combination of an ironing board, and a standard normally supported by the board and below the upper surface thereof and adapted to be swung to an upright position to support a cable above said board.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
JOHN MANZ.
