Description

J. W. QTANTON.V
IRQNIN'G BOARD.
Patented July 4.11876.
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JOSEPH W. STANTON, OF WEST SPRINGFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS.y
IMPROVEMENT IN IRONING-BOARDS.
Specication forming part of Letters Patent No. l 79,429, dated July 4, 1876; application tiled April 28, 1876. v
To all whom it 'may concern:
Be it known that I, JosEPH W. STANTON, of West Springeld, State of lVIassachusetts, have invented an Improved Ironing-Board, of .which the following is a specication:
My invention is fully illustrated in the following description and accompanying drawings, of which- Figure I is a plan view of the board proper; Fig. Il, a plan view ot' the board with the article to be ironed in position upon it. Fig. lII is a side view of the board as shown in Fig. I; Fig. IV, an end view of the device as shown in Fig. II; and Fig. V, one ofthe movable side pieces.
Upon the side of the board B, which is properly padded and covered to present a good ironing-surface, are the Slat-holders b arranged two to each of the sides.
The shirt-bosom or other piece to be ironed is brought over the face of the ironing-surface, and the slats D are forced down between the sides of the board B and holders b, to draw the fabric upon the board from three or more directions, to secure it and insure an entire absence ot' all wrinkles in the surface to be ironed. These holders b I prefer to arrange upon the sides ot' the board B, as shown in Fig. I. They are secured to the bottom ofthe board, and, rising from the bottom, leave a space between them and the sides a little in excess ofthe thickness ofthe slats D, to allow for the double thickness ot' the fabric when the slats are crowded in place.
These holders b may be made to have a slight spring, or be inclined a little from the curing them by acting as clamps to confine them against thc board.,
The free ends ofthe holders bare below the level of the face of the board, and when the slats D are in place no object projects to intel-tere with the use ot" the iron.
In this invention the object can be quickly and with certainty arranged in the best position to be ironed, and can be as quickly-by the mere removal ot' the slats-disengaged; andas the tension upon the fabric is released to any degree from the drying of the moisture by theiron, a slight pressure by the hand upon one or more of the cleats quickly restores it. e
Now, having described my invention, what I claim is- In combination with the ironing-board B, the spring slat-holders b and slats D, conforming'to the sides ot' the board, when all arranged and constructed substantially as set forth. A
