Description
Dec. 24, 1929. w. D. GEORGE IRONING BOARD Filed May 15 1927 Wa/ZerD. Georg e ATTO R N EY Patented Dec. 24, 1929 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE IRONING BOARD Application filed May 13,
This invention relates to an ironing board, the general object of the invention being to provide means for firmly supporting the small or tip end of the board, while permitting the board to be easily and quickly knocked down or set up.
Another object of the invention is to so form the supporting means that the board can be moved about without danger of collapsing by exerting pressure upon the board.
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 perspective view of the improved board set up for use.
Figure 2 is a bottom plan view of the board in knocked-down condition.
Figure 3 is a fragmentary sectional view showing a modification.
In these views, 1 indicates the board which is made of the usual or any desired shape and 2 and 3 indicate brackets fastened to the bot tom face of the board. The bracket 2 has pivotally connected therewith the pair of rear legs 4: and the pair of long or inclined legs 5. The legs 4 are connected together by the braces 6 while the legs 5 converge from the board to their free ends and these ends are fastened together with a block 7 between them. This part of the inclined legs is beveled, as shown. Each leg 4 is connected to a leg 5 by the usual sectional link 8 so that the legs 4 can be folded over the legs 5 by pressing upwardly upon the links.
A front leg or prop 9 is formed of two pieces pivoted to the bracket 3. The free ends of the two pieces of leg 9 are fastened together. The free end of said leg or prop is adapted to pass between the legs 5 until a cross piece 10 engages the legs 5, and the extremity of the leg 9 engages a cross piece 11 fastened to the under sides of the 1927. Serial No. 191,148.
legs 5. This will prevent further movement of the parts, and in this position of the parts the board is firmly supported in horizontal position. Pressure upon the small or tip end of the board will cause the leg 9 to more firmly engage the legs 5 and thus the board can be moved about while exerting pressure on the tip end thereof. The parts can be separated by placing the foot against the free ends of the legs 5 and pulling the tip end of the board upwardly so as to free the leg 9 from the legs 5. Then by pressing the links 8 upwardly, the three leg forming parts can be folded upon the bottom face of the board, as shown in Figure 2.
In the modification, a pin 10 is substituted for the cross piece 10 and a pin 11 for the cross piece 11. In other respects, this form of the invention is similar to that before described.
From the foregoing it will be seen that I have provided an ironing board which can be easily and quickly set up and knocked down and which, when set up, will have its board part firmly supported and the device can be moved about without collapsing it by simply placing pressure upon the board to hold the prop or leg 9 in engagement with the inclined leg.
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 In an ironing table, a board, a support therefor comprising a pair of rear legs pivotally secured at one end of the board, a pair of inclined legs pivotally mounted at the same end as the rear legs and extending downwardly under the opposite end of the board, said last mentioned legs converging downwardly and being connected at their lower ends, a prop comprising a pair of members pivotally mounted at the mid-section of the board one at each side of the axis thereof and extending downwardly between the inclined legs, a stop mounted on the prop above the bottom ther of to engage the upper surface of the inclined legs and a stop on the inclined legs underneath thereof, adapted to engage the upper surface of the lower end of the prop to check the upward thrust thereof, the Weight of the board holding the stop onthe prop in engagement With the inclined legs and folding braces pivotally connecting the inclined legs 10 With the rear legs.
In testimony whereof I a-flix my signature.
\VALTER D. GEORGE.
