\ IMPROVEMENT IN lRONlNG-TABLES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 65,672, dated July 20, 1875; application filed May 8, 1875. i
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, EDWIN S. HEATH, of North Hope, Butler county, Pennsylvania, have invented a new and Improved Ironing- Board, of which the following is a specifica tion:
My invention consists of an ironing-board supported by an adjustable leg, and held to the wall or partition of a room by two small horizontal irons, said irons being always lett screwed to the wall or partition, the boa-rd being provided with two irons, with one end bent over, so as to iorm hooks. By elevating the point of the board, the hooks are readily hooked around the horizontal irons on the wall, and then the board is dropped down to rest upon the adjustable leg. The lower end of said leg rests against the wall and floor at the intersection ofthe wall, thus forming a leg or brace, andleaving nearly the whole board free from legs or obstructions, so as to allow large skirts or other garments to be drawn over the board to be ironed.
In the drawing, Figure l is a plan otl the board complete, showing the horizontal irons to be screwed to the wall; and Fig. 2 is a plan ofthe adjustable leg or brace. Fig. 3 is a side elevation.
Similar letters ot reference indicate correspondin g parts.
A is the ironing-board. B represents the two irons screwed to the board, and bent over on one end, so as to form hooks. Crepresents the horizontal irons, which are always leftscrewed to the wall or partition, and around which the hooks are hooked when the board is in use. D represents the socket, through which the adjustable leg passes, and the thumb-screw, which holds the same to its pl'ace. E represents the staples, which hold the adjustable leg to the board by means ot' the braces F F, which are rigidly secured at their lower ends to the socket D, thus forming a hinge; and H is the adjustable leg, swinging in the socket D, and adjustable by means ot' the thumb-screw d, so as to 'enable a person using' the ironingboard to raise or lower the outer point, as desired.
I am aware it is not new to hinge an ironing-board to thelwall; but these boards have heretofore been supported by legs hinged or secured directly to lthe table, which allowed no adjustment ot' the board.
The object ot' my invention is to overcon'le this objection, and secure a ready and easy adjustment.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- The braces F F, socket D, provided with the thumbscrew d, and the adjustable leg H, in combination with the ironing-board A, provided with the hooks B B and the horizontal irons C C, all constructed to operate -substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
