L. GOTHMAN ET AL IRONING BOARD 2 Sheets-Shet 1 Filed Dec. 20, 19.30
Ira 5 822m 5 ATTORNEY Patented May 24, V 1932 UNHTED STATES- .ATENT LOUIS GOTHMAN AND IRA E. SMALLEY, OF RAPID CITY, SOUTH DAKOTA momma roam) Application filed December 20, 1930. Serial No. 503,830.
This invention relates to an ironing board, the general object of the invention being to provide a board the legs of which can be folded against the board so thatthe device will occupy but little space when not in use and also to make the board of such construction that it will have considerable strength and can be easily and quickly folded and unfolded.
A further object of the invention is to provide the rear part of the board with a plurality of sliding rods which can be pulled out to form a small boardfor ironing tubular articles and the like and which can be swung apart to form supporting arms for articles.
A further object is to provide means whereby the board can be placed in a cabinet so as to constitute a built-in board.
To the attainment of the foregoing the invention consists in the improvement hereinafter described and definitely claimed.
In the drawings:
Figure 1 is an elevation of the invention.
Figure 2 is a top plan view thereof.
Figure 3 is a similar view showing the bars swung apart to form a rack.
Figure 4 is a bottom plan View showing the board in folded condition.
Figure 5 is a view showing the board folded in a cabinet.
Figure 6 is a side view with parts in section showing the board in operative position in the cabinet.
In these views the board proper is shown at 1 and the front and rear legs at 2. Each leg consists of a pair of side members connected together by braces as shown and the upper ends of the legs are pivoted to the brackets 3 attachedto the under side of the rear part of the board 1. A pair of links 4 connect each side of the front and rear legs together, these links'being pivoted together and to the legs so that the two legs can be folded together by pushing upwardly on the links and similar links 4' connect the front legs with the bottom of the board. Each pair of links is provided with abutting ends 5 adjacent their pivotal points. Thus by folding the links the legs can be folded against the board as shown in Figure 4:; A plurality of bars6 are slidably arranged under the rear part of the board through means of the cross pieces 7,7 attached to the blocks 8 which are attached to the bottom of the board with the bars passing between the cross pieces 7 and the bottom of the board. The bars pass between the rear blocks 8 which act as guiding means therefor and hold the bars together, as shown in Figure 2 so that the bars will form a smallboard for enabling tubular articles and the like to be ironed thereon. The rear portions of the rear blocks 8 are provided with the beveled edges 8 so that by pulling the bars 6 rearwardly a greater distance than that shown in Figure 2 the bars can be separated as shown in Figure 3 so as to form racks for supporting the articles ironed and tobe irone Figures 5 and 6 show the board used with cabinet A. This cabinet has the strips 9 connected with the sides, each strip being formed with a longitudinally extending slot 10 and a notch 11 extending horizontally and openlng out into the slot 10. Brackets 12 are connected with the rear end of the board and have trunnions 13 thereon for engaging the slots so that the rear end of the board can be raised and lowered in the slots 10. Thus the board'can be pushed into the cabinet as shown in Figure 5 and when this is done the trunnions 13 will ride down the slots 10 until they rest against the lower ends of the slots. The door of the cabinet can then be closed. "When it is desired to use the board the board is pushed upwardly and outwardly so that the trunnions will ride up the slots until they reach the notches 11 and then by pulling the board outwardly the trunnions will enter the notches so that the board will be supported in horizontal position by the trunnions engaging the notches and by the leg member 2.
In this case the rear leg is removed.
It is thought the foregoing description when read in connection with the accompanying drawings will fully and clearly set forth the simplicity of the construction and the advantages thereof to those skilled inthe art to which such invention relates so that further detailed description will not be required.
Having described the invention, we claim: An ironing device comprising a board,
spaced blocks attached to the under side of the board and provided With parallel opposed inner faces merging into faces diverging from said parallel faces, a cross piece attached to the blocks below the diverging faced portions and bars slidable upon the cross piece and snugly through the space between the parallel faces of the blocks, said bars having downwardly projecting end portions adapted to abut against the edge of the cross piece, the
arrangementbeing such that the group of bars may be projected from the end of the board in the form of a smallironing board and may be spread in'the diverging space between the blocks to form a rack,
In testimony vvhereof'we affix our signatures.
