I RONER FEED BOARD Filed April 14, 1930 INVENTOR MZ'alte/r A. Era/ntz ATTO RNEYS BY WM Patented Jan. 12, 1932 UNITED STATES- PATENT OFFICE,
WALTER A. rasn'rz, F srmxnn HEIGHTS, OHIO, ASSIGNOR TO THE APEX ELECTRICAL IBONER FEED BOARD Application filed April 14,
This invention relates to ironing machines and in particular to the ironer feed board which forms a part of such machines for facilitating the handling of certain articles to be ironed.
One of the objects of this invention is to provide a generally simplified inexpensive and rugged ironer feed-board which is adapted to provide a work-supporting and workdirecting shelf directly in front of the ironerroll for the ironing of certain articles such as fiat-work, and which is adapted to be readily shifted from such position to another position whereby the front of the roll of the ironor is completely exposed for the ironing of circular work such as dresses and waists, and which is further adapted to be shifted to yet another position whereby it provides a convenient rack for the reception of the ironed 2 articles.
As such ironers as herein disclosed are normally operated by a person seated in front of and adjacent to the machine, it is a further object of this invention to provide an improved feed-board for domestic ironers in which the feed-board may be readily shifted to a plurality of positions without necessitating the operator moving or changing position in order to effect such positioning of the feed-board.
With these and other objects and advan tages in View, the invention consists in the novel construction arrangement and combination of parts n hereinafter described and illustrated in some of its embodiments in the accompanying drawings and particularly pointed out in the appended claims.
Referring to drawings, Fig. 1 is a perspective View of an ironing machine equipped with my improved adjustable feed-board indicating by dotted lines the various positions the board is adapted to assume. Fig. 2 is an end elevational view partly in section showing the details of the feed board support or bracket. J I
The ironing machine herein illustrated was selected for the purpose of illustrating my improved ironer feed-board which may be readily adapted to various other types of ironers not shown. In theironer illustrated 1930. Serial No. 444,109.
the construction embodies a suitable supporting base or frame 2 for the support of a heated shoe 4 carried on brackets 1 which are secured to one of the frame-members of the machine. A rotatable roll is carried in front of the heater shoe by the gear-case 7 which houses the operating mechanism for the roll and the shoe. In machines of this type it is customary to have the roll and shoe adapted for relative movement with respect to each other whereby the shoe and roll are brought into engagement with each other when it is desired to operate the machine.
A feed-board 5 supported on the bracket 6 is pivotally carried by the gear case 7. The feed-board 5 is secured to an element 12 of the bracket-support by means of suitable rivets or bolts 13 which are received in the holes 17 formed in such element. The element 12 is pivotally connected to the apertured boss 14 of the bracket 6 by means of a bolt 8 which is provided with a spring 15 and a nut 16 to maintain the element 12 and the bracket 6 in the desired position. The upper end of the bracket 6 is provided with an aperture 9 for the reception of a bolt or rod 27 for securing the bracket 6 to the gear case 7. Suitable stops 10 and 11 adapted to contact with the gear case 7 are formed on the bracket 6 for the purpose of maintainingthe bracket and feedboard in the desired positions.
Referring to Fig. 1 the full line drawing of the feed-board referred to by the letter a indicates the normal and most used position of the feed-board, which is directly in front of and parallel to the roll 3. In this position the feed-board is adapted to facilitate the ironing of certain articles such as fiat-work which forms the bulk of an ordinary washing. For other articles such as skirts, shirts, waists, etc., which are more readily ironed when the front of the roll is unobstructed by the feed-board, the feed-board may beshifted to the position indicated by dotted lines and identified by the letter 1). In this position of the feed-board the entire front of the ironer roll is exposed for the reception of the articles to be ironed.
If it is desired to use the feed-board as a support for the articles that have been ironed or for other purposes, the board may be readily shifted from the position b to c and then dropped to the position indicated by d in which the board extends forwardly in the front of the machine and is positioned alongside of the operator who normally occupies a seated position adjacent to and directly in front of the machine. The stated shifting of the board can be acomplished by the operator while seated in position in front of i the machine and does not require her to leave her seat when shifting the feed board to position d as would be necessary if upper end of the bracket were not pivotally connected to the machine.
From the preceding it is apparent that I have devised a very simple and inexpensive feed-board supporting bracket whereby the feed-board may be readily shifted to a plurality of positions with a minimum of effort on the part of the operator for the purpose of facilitating the ironing operations and for providing a convenient clothes-rack at no appreciable increase in cost.
' prising a supporting bracket pivotally secured to said board on an axis which is perpendicular to said board, and means for pivotally securing said bracket to a part of the machine upon a substantially horizontal axis which is perpendicular to a plane containing said first axis.
2. A feed-board for ironing machines com prising a supporting bracket, an element rigidly secured to said board and pivotally secured to said bracket on an axis which is perpendicular to said board and a hinge element carried by said bracket and defining a second axis of rotation which is perpendicular to a plane containing said first axis, said bracket also having a stopped portion spaced from said hinge element and cooperating therewith to hold said bracket in selected position.
3. A comblnation with an ironing machine having a frame, and a padded roll and heated shoe carried thereby, of a supporting bracket pivotally secured to said frame upon a horizontal axis at one end of said roll, stop means carried by said bracket and engaging said frame to limit the pivotal movement thereof, and a feed-board pivoted to said bracket on an axis whlch is perpendicular both to a plane containing said first axis and to the board itself.
4:. A combination with an ironin machine havin a supporting frame, and a orizontal rotata 1e roll carried thereby, of a feed-board comprising an elongated element adapted for location parallel to and in front of said roll, and a bracket pivoted to said frame upon a horizontal axis at one end of said roll, said elongated member being pivoted to said bracket on an axis which is perpendicular to a plane containing said first axis, said last axis being vertical when said elongated member is located parallel to and in front of said roll.
5. A combination with an ironing machine having a supporting frame and a horizontal rotatable roll carried thereby, of a bracket pivoted to said frame at one end of said roll upon an axis which is substantially parallel to the roll axis, a feed-board pivoted to said bracket on an axis which is perpendicular to a plane containing said first axis, and means for arresting the pivoting movement of said bracket relative to said frame at determined positions.
6. In an ironing machine having a rotatable roll, a feed board therefor, and a bracket hinged to a part of the machine on an axis parallel to the axis of said roll and having a portion movable about a vertical axis perpendicular to a plane containing the first axis, said portion supporting said feed-board whereby said feed-board may be adjusted to various selected positions.
In testimony whereof I hereunto atfix my signature.
