IRONING-BOARD CABINET.
Application filed April 25,
I it can be moved to a horizontal position when the door of the cabinet is open or swung to a vertical position within the cabinet when not in use, with locking means for holding it in horizontal position.
I. This invention also consists in certain other features of construction and in the combination and arrangement of the several parts, to be hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings and specifically pointed out in the appended claim.
In describing my invention in detail, reference will be had to the accompanying drawings wherein like characters denote like or corresponding parts throughout the several views, and in which:-
Figure 1 is a longitudinal sectional view showing the board in horizontal position.
Figure 2 is a front view with the board in horizontal position.
Figure 4 is a perspective view of the inner end of the board and its associated parts.
Figure 5 is a similar view but showing the board in slightly tilted position.
In these views, 1 indicates a cabinet which is formed with the side walls and a bottom wall and its front is provided with an open ing which is closed by a hinged door 8. The rear of the cabinet is open and cross pieces 2 extend across the rear part which are adapted to receive the screws 3 or other fastening means, for fastening the cabinet to a wall. The center cross piece 2' has a keeper member 4 on its upper edge and the side pieces 5 which have their inner ends abutting the piece 2', are each provided with a notch 6 in its upper edge at the inner end thereof. The cabinet is provided with a shelf 7 for receivin irons or the like and its front is closed by a inged door 8. The ironing board is shown at 9 and it has a brace 10 hinged to its bottom face an appreciable distance from the inner end thereof and the other end of the brace is hinged to the bottom of the cabinet. A cross iece 11 is fastened to the inner end of the oard, with its 1927. Serial No. 186,411.
ends projecting beyond the edges of the board, these projecting ends engaging the notches 6 when the board is in horizontal position. A latch member 12 is fastened to the inner end of the board and is adapted to engage the keeper 4 so as to hold the board in horizontal position, as shown in Figures 1, 2 and 4.
By unfastening the latch member, the board can be swung into the cabinet by tilting its outer end downwardly and pushing the board and its brace into the cabinet. The board will have its outer end engaging the bottom of the cabinet and said board will lie parallel with the brace, as shown in Figure 3. When theboard is to be used, the door is opened and the inner end of the board pulled out of the cabinet. This movement will cause the brace to move out of the cabinet and the board will rock upon its hinge until it assumes a horizontal position, when the ends of the piece 11 will engage the notches 6. This will prevent further movement of the board. The latch 12 is then moved into engagement with the keeper 4 to hold the parts in operative position.
Thus I have produced a simple device which can be manufactured to sell at low cost and which can be easily and quickly proved into operative or inoperative posiion.
It is thought from the foregoing description that the advantages and novel features of my invention will be readily apparent.
I desire it to be understood that I may make changes in the construction and in the combination and arrangement of the several parts, provided that such changes fall within the scope of the appended claim.
What I claim is A device of the class described comprising a vertically arranged cabinet having its rear open and provided with side and end walls and a front having a door opening therein, a hinged door for closing the opening, upper and lower cross pieces at the rear of the cabinet for fastening the cabinet to a wall, a central cross piece at the rear of the cabinet, a side piece connected with the central part of each side wall and having its rear end abutting the central cross piece, each side piece having a notch in its upper rear edge, a brace having its lower end hinged to the bottom wall of the cabinet, a board keeper on the upper edge of the central cross piece for receiving the latch for locking the board in horizontal position. 10
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.
ROBERT J. THOMPSON.
