Application mea october 24,1923. serial no. 570,578. t
To all whom #may yarmoe/W1, n
'Be it known that l, FLoYp'E. LANE, a citizen of the United States, residing at villageV of Falconer, in ythe county of State of "New York, have inventedy certain new and yuseful VImprovements in Ironing Boards, `of which the fol-A lowing, taken in connection with 'the :accompanyingdrawings, is a specification.
This invention relates to an improvement in an ironing board and more particularly to one of the collapsible or folding type.
The primary object of this invention is to provide in a device oft-his character,
ff novel and improved construction of sup5' porting means by which the board can be easily opened into the position of use and can be automatically held inA any one of certain adjustable positions.
Other objects will appear from a consideration of the following specification taken in connection with the drawings which Vform a part thereof and in which Fig. 1 is a side elevation of one embodi ment of this invention in the position of use.
Fig. 2 is a bottom view of the embodiment shown in Fig, 1 in the collapsed position.
Fig. 3 is a sectional view taken along the line 3-3 of Fig. 2.
Fig. 4 is a cross-section taken along Jthe line 4-4 of Fig. 2.
Referring to the drawings, the reference numeral 10 is employed to designate an ironing board of any desired conformation suitably supported by pivotally joined legs 11 and 12. The legs 11 are pivotally mounted upon block 13 rigidly secured to the under side of the board adj acent its base. The legs 11 are preferably two in number connected by suitable cross-pieces 14,l and as shown particularly in-Fig. 1 extend to the front of the board so that for this reason they will be hereinafter referred to as` the front legs. The legs 12 are also two in num- K ber and are carried by a crossr shaft 15, pivotally mounted and extending through the legs 11, The legs 12 are united by crosspieces 16 and are carried by and Xtending from them is a brace or support 17 which is firmly attached to the shaft 15, and to one of the cross-pieces 16. The brace 17 extends between the legs 11 and 12 and engages the under Side of the board adjacent the nose in the manner to be described later.
ln itheundersideof the board 10 laren-provided a pair of parallel longitudinally extending fribs .or cleats 18 witha .which :the
brace 'lc'o-actsf Eachof theribs- 1=8Jcom-- lprises a strip' 19 fand a .plate 2O which fisl :rigidly `secured thereto. "llhefends 121 Aolf fthe strips19 with which the 4plate 1.20 engage are vextended tov provid'econtinuous longi- `tudinal slots 22 shown particularlyinFigs.
l and 3. The upper wall of each slot 22 is formed by the strip 19 which is provided p with a notch 23 and a plurality of rearwardly inclined notches 24. The brace 17 is secured to the ribs 18 by means of a pin '25 extending through the end of the brace and into the slots 22 along which it travels freely; The ribs 19 and notches 23 are so located that when the board is inthe collapsed positionfshown in Figs. 2,3 and 4 the pin 25 will rest in the notches 23. When, however, the board isv erected in the position for use the pin 25 will rest in one of the sets of notches 24.- In Fig. 1 ofthe drawing the pin is shown resting in the.
-notches 24 nearest ythe notches 23 and the board is supported in its lowest position. K If it is desired to have the board higher the legs 11 and 12 may be drawn together until the pin 25 leaves the first set of notches 24 and traveling along the slot'22 enters', one
' of the other sets of notches 24.
While ironing boardsof the adjustable type have been previously made it has been impossible to set them up without difficulty. A board made in accordance with my inven tion however, can be easily erected by placing the toe upon the end of the legs 11 and lifting the nose to swing the board varound the pivot of the legs 11 on the block 13, the pin 22 leaving the notches 23 and bearing upon the plates 2O in the slots 22 until approximately the desired position has been reached. The boardis then lowered and the pin 25 will slip from. the slot 22 'into the nearest notches. When the board is tobe collapsed, the operator places the toe against the rear legs 12'and after lifting the nose l be limited thereto since it is obvious that others may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as set forth in the following claim. l
Having thus set forth my invention, what I claim as new, and for which I desire protection by Letters Patent is:
In an ironing table, a board, a pair of spaced parallel front legs pivoted at one end to the board and engaging the floor at theirl opposite ends, a cross-shaft connected to the front legs at points between the ends thereof,
a pair of parallel short rear legs resting at their lower ends on the floor and pivoted at vtheir upper ends to said cross-shaft and being guidingly engaged by the sides of the front legs, a pair of parallel ribsdepending vfrom the board and having downwardly facing notches, a cross pieceA connecting thev rear legs intermediate the ends thereof, a single brace secured to the center of said cross-piece at its lower end, said cross-shaft extending througlrsaid brace between the ends thereof to support the same, and a pin carried by the upper end of the brace and having its ends projecting beyond opposite sides of the brace and receivable in the notches of the ribs, the ribs being spaced but slightly in excess of the thickness of the brace and receiving the upper end Vof' the brace therebetween so as to engage opposite si des ofthe brace and to afford guides therefor. f
In testimony whereof I have affixed my signature.
