IIVCOLLAPSIBLE IRONING 'ra Y Harriott Herman Tiegs, Gardena, Calif I ApplicationOctober27,1948, serial No.dtijiSt; 'lClaims. (o1.ss 11'1 )f f V.
I t This invention relates to an ironingboard, and
more particularly to a collapsibletray adapted to beattached to an ironing board. v The principalobject of the invention is to provide' a'collapsible tray adapted to be attached to an ironing board for supporting articles being ironed, to prevent the-articles from dragging on ironing boardforsupporting articles being ironed, which will .eliminate'the tension or pull caused by the hanging ends of the articles.
f-Afurthe'r. object ofv the invention is to provide anironing board with a tray which can be extended when needed and can be collapsed when not needed, and either compactly folded beneath the ironing board, or can be disengaged from the ironing board and stored in asmall space. Still another object of the invention is toprovide an ironing board with a collapsible tray which is extremely simple and inexpensive to manufacture. Other objects and advantages willbe apparent during the course of the following description.
In the accompanying drawings forming a part of this application, and in which like numerals are employed to designate like parts throughout thesame:, g: l .Figure l is a side elevational view of an ironing board providedgwith the-collapsible tray, according to'thepresentinvention;

Figure 8 is a rear elevational sectional view of the lower portion of the assembly for attaching the tray to the ironing board;
Figure 9 is a sectional view taken on the line 5-9 of Figure 4.
Referring in detail to the drawings, the numera1 l0, Figure. 1, designates a conventional ironing board provided with pivotally connected legs 5 II plate 16 by rivets I9 is a U-shaped supportem;
bodying a pair of vertically-disposed, spaced, parallel standards l8. Arranged in side-by-side relation with respect to the standards l8 and mounted for vertical r sliding movement therealong is a pair of spaced, parallel, vertically-disposed arms '20. A manually-operable. thumb screw assembly 22 is mounted in embracing relation withrespect to the arms and standards, Figures l and 7, and the thumb screw assembly 22 can he loosened or tightened in order to either permit vertical adjustment of the arms or to maintain the latter immobile. Secured to the lower end of each of the standards I8 by rivets 23 is a tubular leasing 24 which slidably embraces theladl'acent arms and serves as a guide to maintain the standards and-arms inalignment.
The lower ends of thevarms 2fl project through a pairof spaced slots 25, Figures 8 and 9, formed in the top of a bracket ZBandthe arms 20 are each pivot ally connected to the sides of the bracket 26,-by rivets: or pins TI -so that the arms are .pivotally connected to thebracket 26 for permitting the arms to be folded against the tray for storage. The bracket 26 is provided with a pair of opposed flanges 2i whichare secured,ias by rivets 28, to theuppersemi-circular a housing 30.
The housing;;30 embodies the upper plate 29 plate 29 of and lower semi-circular plate 3|, Figure l, ar-
between the plates 29 and 3| and projecting therefrom is a plurality of. tubular staves or rods 34 having their outer ends bent upwardly. A rivet 35 extends through the plates 29v and 3| and through each ofthe staves 34 to thereby provide a pivotal connection between thestaves and the plates, so that the staves 34"can be moved to collapsed (Figure 3) orextended position (Figure 2). A suitable webbed cover 36, fabricated of suitable cloth,--is provided with a line of stitching 31 and a plurality of pockets 38 for receiving the individual staves 34, so that the cover 36 will be supported on the projecting ends of the 3 outer edges of the cover 36 upwardly to form an upwardly-extending rim for preventing articles from accidentally falling ofi of the cover.
In use, the device when needed may be releasably attached to the ironing board I!) by sliding the tongue I6 into the bracket I4 and the user can adjust the space between the collapsible tray and the ironing board by adjusting the thumb screw assemblies g2; Tl'le staves 34 are pivoted about the pins; 35 to their extended position; Figure 2, and the attachment will support the ends of articles being ironed to prevent the articles from dragging on the floor anq becomingsoiled. The weight of the collapsible tray is centered near the center of the-droning hoard;
over. Also, the user can irori'fro'n'i either side of' the ironing board by collapsing or moving the section not needed into an out-of-the-way positlbna" As many embodiments may be made o-f this inventive concept,- and as many ,modifications may be made in the embodiment hereinbefore shown and described, it isto be understood that all matter herein is i tobe interpreted merely as illustrative and: not in a limiting: sense.
