IRON ATTACHMENT Filed April 5, 1934 5 Sheets-Sheet 3 V T L 3 Invenlo;
Patented Feb. 18. 1936 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 1 Claim.
The present invention relates to an attachment for an electric iron and has for its prime object to provide means for taking care of the cord of the iron so as to keep it out of they way of the user.
Another very important object of the invention resides in the provision of an attachment of this nature which is exceedingly simple in its construction, easy to manipulate, handy, inexpensive to manufacture, thoroughly efficient and reliable in use and otherwise well adapted to the purpose for which it is designed. 7
With the above and numerous other objects in view as will appear as the description proceeds, the invention consists in certain novel features of construction, and in the combination and arrangement of parts as will hereinafter be more fully described and claimed.
In the drawings:
Figure 1 is an elevation showing one end of an ironing board with my attachment mounted thereon and connected with an electric iron.
Figure 2 is a perspective view of the spring rod. Figure 3 isa horizontal section taken substantially on the line 3-3 of Figure 1.
Figure 4 is a bottom plan view of the casing. Figure 5 is a section taken substantially on the line 5-5 of Figure 3, and
Figure 6 is a perspective view of the base and clip.
Referring to the drawings in detail it willbeseen that the numeral 5 denotes an ironing board and the numeral 6 an electric iron having the usual cord 1. These three items, of course, are conventional and the cord 1 on its end has a plug-8 also conventional.
Referring now in detail to my attachment it will be seen that the numeral 9 denotes a base of disk like formation having an annular peripheral flange l rising therefrom with bayonet slots ll provided therein. This base 9 is adapted to be mounted on the end of the ironing board by means of a spring wire clip l2. Numeral N denotes a cylindrical casing with a top plate l5 and being open at the bottom and having a plurality of inwardly directed lugs l6 to engage in the bayonet slot Ii, the casing slightly telescoping over the flange 10 as clearly shown in Figure 5. A socket I1 is mounted in the plate I5 so that the plug 8 may be engaged therewith. A switch I8 is mounted in the casing l4 so that the operating element l9 thereof is disposed exteriorly. Suit- I able wiring 20 connects the switchand the socket element I! with a cord 2| which will'be engaged with the wall socket or the like. Numeral 22 denotes a spring rod having a coil 23 at the bottom end thereof the lower convolute of which is sold- 10 ered or otherwise fixed to the plate IS. A coil 24 is provided at the upper end of the rod 22 and the cord 1 is trained therethrough and when the iron '6 is moved back and forth on the ironing board,
of course,,the rod 22 flexes but keeps the cord 1 out of the way of the operator.
The switch I 8 is handy for turning the current off when desired. The device is easy to mount on the board and is easy to disassemble and store away when not in use.
It is thought that the construction, utility and advantages of this invention will now be quite apparent to those skilled in this art without a more detailed description thereof.
The present embodiment of the invention has 25 been described in considerable detail merely for the purposes of exempliflcation since in actual practice it attains the features of advantage enumerated as desirable in the statement of the invention and the above description. I so It will be apparent that changes in the details of construction, and in the combination and arrangement of parts may be resorted to without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention as hereinafter claimed or sacrificing any of its advantages.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new is:
A cord holder of the class described, comprising a hollow base, a board engaging clamp carried thereby, a flexible upright having horizontal coils at its lower end, the lower convolution of which is fastened to the top of the base and horizontal coils at the upper end of the upright forming an eye for a cord, said base adapted to contain elec- 4 trlcal connections for the cord.
CHARLES BURTON BARKER.
