WILLIAM CURTIS ARNOLD, OF MONTAGUE, MICHIGAN.
IMPROVEMENT IN lRONlNG-TABLES AND CLOTHES-RACKS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 156,749, dated November 10, 1874 application filed August 5, 1874.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM CURTIS AR- NOLD, of, Montague, in the county of Muskekon and State of Michigan, have in vented certain new and useful Improvements in Oombined Ironing-Table and Clothes-Rack; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which.
will enable others skilled in the art to whichit pertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings and to the letters of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
This invention relates to ironing-tables and clothes racks or driers.
The invention consists of combined ironingtables and clothes-racks, arranged to be folded in a compact form, and composed of a tableframe, from which the main rack-standards rise, and to which standards are hingedadditional racks, the table-box having receptacles for clothes, pins, and sad-irons, the whole being constructed so as to have three ironing-tables and three racks, with one of said racks supporting a supplementary rack hinged upon the same standard, as will be hereafter more specifically set forth and particularly claimed.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 represents a view, in perspective, of my improved ironing-table and clothes-drier unfolded, and with its racks, tables, and chests prepared for use; Fig. 2, a top or plan view of the same; Fig. 3, a perspective view of the device as compactly folded; and Fig. 4, a vertical cross-section of the same. Figs. 5, 6, and 7 are detailed views of the supplemental rack, the folding ironin g-table, and the hinged doors.
From a suitable frame, A, rise the main rack-standards B, carrying other racks folding upon it, as will be presently described. Upon this frame A, and supported by additional legs 0, is mounted the principalbox table D, which is also secured to the main rack-standards. At either end of this boxtable D are chests E, having compartments for the reception of sad-irons, clothes-pins, and such small implements as are necessary in alaundry, the lids or doors F of said chests being continued slightly below their hingingpoint, a, so that when opened they form stops c, to hold them in horizontal positions, by preventing them from describing more than a Fig. '1. The top compartment 1) of one of these chests E is designed'for the reception of clothes-pins, and the bottom compartments 0 for the sad-irons. The main board G of the boxtable D is provided with a hinged cover, (1, for a chest, H, formed by the table-box for the reception of the clothes to be ironed, and has stationary sad-iron rests e thereon. It is also provided with a leaf, I, supported by hinged brackets f, hinged in the box and in sockets protruding from the additional legs 0 of the supporting-frame. The main rackstandards B are firmly supported in the frame A, at a point, as shown, to prevent any tendency to topple over, and carry rounds g, upon which the already ironed garments are hung to dry. To, the two upper top rounds of these standards B are pivoted, at their junction with said standards, arms J, which carry a supplemental rack, K, for clothes, which rack may be folded and unfolded upon its main rack, and heldin place when unfolded for use by means of openings h in said top arms J, which engage with teats or detents i in spring thumbpieces j, attached to the inner faces of said standards, and when it is desired to fold said rack K it is only necessary to operate the thumbpiece j to disengage the detents, and the supplemental rack will fall down by the side of the main rack. Hinged to each of the standards B are additional racks L L but near the lower ends of the said rack L is attached a chest, H, provided with a hinged sectional leaf, I, supported by hinged brackets projectin g from said chest-box, and one section thereof forming a cover, 01, for said chest. The other additional rack, L, has upon the round next 7 above the lowest pivoted supports is, upon which an ironing-table, M, rests. This table is rendered capable of being folded flat against its carrying'rack by means of bracing-arms Z Z, pivoted upon bearings projecting from the supports 70, and moving within guide-slots m at the lowest round. The free ends of these arms I l are provided with notches a, for the purpose of engaging with the roundto hold them firmly while'bracing the ironing-table and holding it in position, as shown in Fig.1. The operation of folding said table back upon the rack is obvious. In a continuation of the bottom board N of the box-table D are slots 0, for the reception of \the legs of the racks L L when folded, and adjoining said slots are stops 1;, over which projecting pins q of the additional legs slide and are caught in notches in said stops when the racks are folded, as shown in Fig. 4. The rack L being first folded is followed by the rack L and fastened as above.
The manner of folding and unfolding all the parts having been fully described, and the purposes of said parts having been singly set forth, it is only necessary to a perfect understanding of the device to refer to the drawings in connection herewlth.
I have thus produced in a neat and compact form, and simply constructed and operated, an article combining in itself all that is necessary in order to a proper ironing and drying of washed clothes.
I claim 1. In combination with the central ironingtable, having the fixed and folding clothesracks B y K, the racks L and L, constructed as described, and provided with folding tables M and I, the said racks L and L being hinged to the central frame B B, whereby they may be compactly folded together or admit of being unfolded, as and for the purpose set forth.
2. The combination of the main rack B g with the supplemental hinged rack K J and the thumb-spring detents i j, for sustaining the supplemental rack in position for use, as described.
3. In combination with the rack B 9, the rack L, constructed as described, and provided with the table M and braces l l, as and for the purpose set forth.
4. The bottom Nof the box-table D, having receiving-slots 0 o and shouldered stops p, in combination with the pins q of the rack-supports L L, whereby said racks may be folded beside each other and the main rack, and fastened in place by the table-stops, as described.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I have affixed my signature in pres ence of two witnesses.
WILLIAM CURTIS ARNOLD.
