IRONING BOARD Filed Sept. 15, 1930 Patented ea. 20,;1931' teats FRED KNoRa'orj DENVER, COLORADO IRONINGBOARD 1 Application filed September 15,1930, seriarmi. 481,928
' This invention [relates to improvemen'ts in ironing boards of the type that can be attached to theedgei o ff a table orxt o the edge ofasinki'or other suitable-projecting sledge.
' It. is customarytoj make ironing boards that are formed from a single board having a 'slot or openingat its widest end and having the end of a supporting bar extending 10 through this. opening and hinged to the board so as to form with the board a pair of tongs that engage the edge of the table. Ironing boards of the type just'described are so constructed that the supporting bar is,
15 permanently attached to the board with the result that the board cannot be used as an ordinary ironing board as the supporting bar prevents it from being laid on a flat sur- Ironing 20 boards of the type to which this invention face or on two spaced supports.
duce an ironing board ofthe general type to which reference has just been made and which shall be so constructed'that thesupporting bar can be quickly separated from the board therebyv leaving the latter-like an ordinary ironing board with both sides fiat and it can therefore be used in the ordinary way by laying it on a table or supporting it on the back of spaced chairs or onany other spaced support. Y
The fact that the board and the support can be readily separated from each other is a great convenience also for the reason that the support and the board can then be stored separately and will occupy much smaller space and be much handier to handle than if they were permanently connected. I The above and other objects that may be come apparent as this description proceeds It is the object of this invention to pro-' are attained by means of a construction and anarrangement of parts that willnow'be de- PM'ENTI:
scribed indetail, reference for this purpose being had to the accompanying drawingsin which'the 'pr'eferred'embodiment of the invention hasbe'en illustrated,-;a'ndin which Fig. 1 is a' sideelevation of the improved ironing board showing the'same attached to the edge of atable, a portion of theboard being broken away'to better" disclose the construction; U j j; Fig. 2' is a section through one end of the ironing board showing the-manner of at taching the "supporting bar thereto, ajportion 'of' the ba'r beingshown brokenaway so as to better disclosethe construction; and Fig. 3 is View oftlre nndersideof the ironing 1 board showing the relative position ofthe slot' and the pivot pin. a
1 In the drawings numeral 1 designates the 7 surface of the floor and 2 the top of a table such as a kitchen table and this is support} fed by leg s 3. in the ordinary manner.
Numerals indicates; the "ironing board which is of the usual. length and width and which has a pointed outer end, 5, The other end of the ironing board which. is termed the inner end has been designated by reference numeral 6 and is provided with a slot or opening-7 that extends inwardly a short distance as shown in Figs. 2 a-nd3. A pivot pin 8 is attached to the ironing'bo'ard near the inner end of the "slot. This "piyot pin can be made in different ways but has been shown as formed from almta l'barhaving flattened end portionsf 9 anda cylindrical centralportiom Thefboa'rd preferably. provided with a transverse depression 10 of sufficient depth to place all parts of the pivot pin -beneath" the lower" surface of the board and the pivot pin is heldY-inplaceby 1 means of screws 11.; Since the pivot pin is recessed into the boa d, both surfaces of'the board are plane andit can therefore be used as an ordinary ironing board and can be. laid on a flat table "or any-other. support.
The pivot'pin'is so constructed that it will extend "substantially the entire distance across the board and therefore preventsthe latter-from .b'eco'ming 'split subjected to V rough handling.
The supporting bar has been designated by reference numeral 12 and has a width substantially equal to the width of slot'7.
Secured to oneside ofthe bar near'its upper end is a metal plate 13 that is provided on its outer side With a'plurality of transverse,
cylindrical depressions 14 that are adapted to receive the pivot pin in the manner shown in Fig. 2; This plate can be dispensed with I and notches provided in the surface of bar 12 but the plate is believed to be preferable for the reason that if the notches are out in the wooden bar, the portions betweenthe notches are liable to break away and make it diflicult to secure proper adjustment. The plate 1 3 is held in place by meansof rivets 15 which also serve tofprevent'thebar from splitting. The upper end of the bar is provided with a'rectan'gular notch 16 on possible to connect the support and board so as'to form an operative assembly without permanently interconnecting them and in such a way that both sides, of the board are unobstructed 'when the supporting bar is removed. aving described the invention what I claim as newis z v Y I 1 An ironing boardha'ving both surfaces formed from unobstructed planes one end ofthe boa-rdhaving a notch or opening extending inwardly therefrom, a metal bar secured to the under side of the board and extending transversely of the opening with the bar rounded in the portion extending across the opening, the metal bar lying wholly within the space bounded by the two pposite'sides of'the board, and "a supporting jbar having one end extending through the opening, the upper edge of the bar having a plurality of transverse notches adapted to receive the roundedportion of 'the-Imetal bar and' the underside having a rectangular notch jat 'the'upper end ofthe bar.
.In "testimony whereof s D FRED KNORR.
er d-ifliculty would be experienced in making proper adjustments and this istherefore an present"construction. Since the pivot pin 8 added advantage that is deri'ved from the f;
i is locatedquitehear the inner end ofthe I board, itlis necessary "to' provide a brace to support'the board because in the absence of such a brace, the boardrwill yield so as to make it an unsatisfactory surface for ironing and for this purpose I have provided a brace 17. This brace is provided at one end with a longitudinal slot 18 through This bolt .is
provided with a wing nut 20 and is used for j r,
clamping the. brace "in. adjusted position.
The under surface of'the, boardlhas a notch 21 forthereception of the upper end of brace 17. QWhen the parts are adjusted as shown in Fig. 1 the board isvery rigid and forms a satisfactory support for ironing clothes and after the board has beenused, it-c'anbe easily separated from the table and the two parts of the board separated from each other so as to. facilitate storage.
From theabove, description itwill be apparent that I have produced an ironing 1 board of such construction that the board andits Support are unattachedffrom each other and canfbe quickly separated and stored inseparate places and asq-uicklyvreassembe attached to the edge of a table or, other bled to form an operative device which can stationary flange. I wantto call particular attention to the construction that makes it liUD
