.TLNVENIIDR Elv- Aprifl 21, 1936. F. A. PARISH IRONING MACHINE CABINET Filed Jan. 14, 1935 2 Sheets-Sheet 2 INVENTDE: M Q PM Enz- A'I'TYE:
Patented Apr. 21, 1936 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 1 Claim.
This invention is directed to cabinets for ironing machines or the like and has for its object the provision of a cabinet adapted to cover an ironing machine when the same is not in use and to be easily and quickly removed therefrom for the purpose of exposing the ironing machine to leave the same clear of all covering means and yet remain in assembled relation by reason of which the cover may be quickly and easily replaced.
The invention is clearly disclosed in the following description and accompanying drawings in which:
Fig. 1 is a front elevational View of my cabinet with a portion broken away to permit clearer view of underlying parts;
Fig. 2 is a plan view of the same with a portion broken away to facilitate description;
Fig. 3 is a sectional end elevational view taken on line 3-3 in Fig. 1, showing dotted outline of an ironing machine as the same may be disposed in the cabinet, and dotted outline of the cover portion in removed position; and
Figs. 4 and 5 are enlarged fragmental elevational views showing details of mechanism to be described.
Figs. 1 and 2 disclose my cabinet as comprising a base member l0 over which is disposed a box cover structure comprising upright end and rear side walls ll, 12 and I3.
The side walls are secured to a cover member I4 in such relation as to form a unitary box structure comprising a top, rear wall and end walls.
The side of the structure opposite the rear wall is enclosed by a double door structure comprising door members l5 and I6, which are mounted upon the front edges of end walls II andl2 by means of hinges l1 and are provided with knobs l8 and- IB' as shown.
Door I5 is prevented from moving inwardly of ,the box line by an abutment member 19 secured (to base l0, and has an offset portion 20 adapted to abut door l6 when the latter is closed against Knob I8 is made rotatable in door 16 and has 'aflix-ed to its shank a tongue member 2| whereby,
by rotating the knob the tongue may be engaged with door I5 to hold the doors in adjacent position.
A ball click mechanism 23 secured to base l0 and engageable with door [6 operates to retain the doors in closed position.
Hinges I! are so arranged with respect to the doors and end walls that the doors may be swung 55 through an angle of approximately 270 degrees, to
the dotted position shown at the right in Fig. 2. Obviously both doors may be swung backwardly to lie adjacent the end walls and by this means the front side of the box is left entirely open.
Fig. 3 illustrates that end Walls II and I2 are provided with reinforcing strips 24 disposed interiorly at the top thereof and pivotally attached to these are arms 25 and 26. The points of attachment are designated 21' and 21 respectively.
As indicated in Fig. 1, the arms are disposed inside the cover structure and lie adjacent end walls II and I2.
Referring to Fig. 3, it will be noted that when the box structure is placed upon base I0, arms 25 and. 26 he in an inclined position.
With doors I5 and I6 closed, as in Fig. 1, an ironing machine, as shown in dotted outline, resting on base ID with its operating handle 30 removed from the socket 3|, is obviously completely enclosed.
It will be apparent that doors l5 and 15 may be opened as described whereupon the box structure may be pushed backwardly to ride upon arms 25 and 26 to the position shown in dotted outline whereby the ironing machine is entirely exposed ready for use.
By reason of the unitary motion of arms 25 as described, the ends of the box are made to move in a unitary, parallel manner regardless of whether it is operated by manual pressure on one end or at center.
Further, a box structure having only a top and three attached sides is inherently weak and prone to flex out of proper alignment unless handled in a special manner. Obviously my arrangement of -arms 25 and shaft 21 is adapted to act as a bracing means for the box structure to prevent distortion thereof for the reason that one end of the box cannot move without accompanying movement of the opposite end.
It will be quite apparent that the upper ends of arms 25 may be joined by a shaft similar to shaft 21 if desired, also both or either ends of arm 26 may be likewise joined. I show herein only one shaft, 21, for the purpose of illustration.
In order to limit the rearward movement of the box structure and to support it in the overhung position shown in dotted outline in Fig. 3, I provide an extension 33 on arms 26 which are so disposed as to engage the top of the box when the same is in offset position.
By the above means the box is always properly supported, in attached relationship upon base NJ.
What I claim is:
A cabinet of the class described having in combination a base, a box structure adapted to rest upon the base, said box structure comprising plural end walls, a top and rear wall secured thereto, door members hingedly attached to the end walls in such a manner as to be capable of closing that side of the box opposite the rear wall and adapted to be swung about to lie adjacent the end Walls, mechanism connecting the box and base in such a manner that the box may be moved 5 laterally with respect to the base, and means whereby said movement is permitted only with the longitudinal elements of the box remaining in parallel relation to longitudinal elements of the base.
