UNITED STATES PATENT orrics.
HENRY E. JANES, OF PELI-IAM .MANOR, NEW YORK, ASSIG-NOR TO JANES & KIRTLAND, INC, OF NEW YORK, N. Y., A CORPORATION OF NEW YORK.
IRONING- BOARD.
Application filed June 24, 1925. Serial No. 39,190.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, HENRY E. JANES, a citizen of the United States, residing in Pellram Manor, county of lVestchester, and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Ironing Boards, of which the following is a specificat ion, reference being bad to the accompanying drawing, forming a part hereof.
This invention relates to the means for supporting and securing in position ironing boards which are intended to be turned up, when not in use, against a wall, whether enclosed in a cabinet or otherwise, and to be swung to horizontal position when required for use. The object of the invention is to provide improved means for supporting and securing in position such ironing boards so as to facilitate the operation, to provide for easy adjustment of the height of the board in working position and to provide also a firm support for the board.
The invention will be described more fully hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawing in which it is illustrated and in which:
Figure 1 is a view partly in side elevation and partly in vertical section showing an ironing board with the improved devices in relation therewith, the board itself being partly broken away to save space.
Figure 2 is a view of the same in elevation, as seen from the right hand in Figure 1, also being partly broken away to save space.
Figure 3 is a detail view in horizontal section on the plane indicated by the broken line 3-8 of Figure 2 and on a larger scale.
The. ironing board a, of any desired shape and of any suitable material is provided at each inner corner with a roller 6, which is arranged to travel in a channel 0, the two channels being secured to the wall and being also held rigidly in parallelism by cross bars (Z and d, at the upper and lower ends.
The inner end of the ironing board is supported by an adjustable support 6, which is preferably of plate form, as shown in Figure 2, its end portions 6 being reduced and bent twice at right angles, as shown in 6 so as to fit freely within the corresponding channel 0. For the purpose of holding the support 6 in adjusted position, so as to permit the height at which the ironing board is supported to be regulated as desired, the
front member of each channel 0 is formed with a series of holes 0 to be engaged by a pin or thumb screw f, which is passed through one or another of the holes 0 and through the front portion of the part 6 of the support 6, receiving if desired, a nut f for the purpose of retaining the pin in place.
On the under side of the board a, is mounted a latch g, which is pivoted at 9 and preferably has a long handle 9 to counterbalance the latch, the toe g of which is adapted to engage a lip a formed at the lower edge of the plate a.
The outer end of the board is supported by a brace 71, which is hinged at h on an outwardly projecting portion of the cross member al As shown in Figure 2, the brace 711 is formed of diagonal members 7L2, 71, united at their upper ends by a cross member h, and at their lower ends by a cross member if so as to support the board a rigidly against lateral movement. The ends of the upper cross member 71 receive pins or bolts h which may be passed through one or another of a series of holes 6 in the flanges 2' of a plate 2', which is secured to the under side of the board. The pins or bolts it may receive thumb nuts 71?, by which they may be secured in place.
It will be understood that when the board is in its horizontal position and is no longer required for use, the hand is applied to the handle g of the latch 9, thereby releasing its toe e from the lip and permitting the inner end of the board to be dropped down in the channels 0 until the board attains the vertical position, the pivot line h at the foot of the brace being carried out so far from the wall that the brace passes through the vertical position and so holds the board against the wall. If it be desired to change the height at which the board is supported, the pins or bolts 7 are withdrawn and the support 6 is moved up or down, as the case may be, until the pins or bolts can be inserted in another one of the holes 0 in the front members of the channels 0. It will be observed that as the lip 6 which is engaged by the latch 9, moves with the support, the relation of the board and of the latch to the support not being changed. In'order that the outer end of the board may be supported in the same horizontal plane with the inner end after adjustment, the pins h are withdrawn and are again inserted in the proper holes 2' to support the board in true horizontal position.
I claim as my invention:
The combination of an ironing board, vertical guides forthe inner end thereof, a support for the inner end thereof, means to secure the support in vertically adjusted position, a latch carried by the board and adapt-- ed to engage the support, a brace for the 10 outer end of the board, and means to adjust the brace to support the board in a horizontal position.
This specification signed this 23d day of June A. D. 1925.
HENRY E. JANES.
