IRONING BQARD PAD AND CQVER/ Filed March 1.7, 1948 Patented May 22, 1951 IRONING BOARD PAD AND COVER Grange K. Pattison, Chicago, Ill., assigner to Textile Mills Company, Chicago, Ill., a corporation of `Illinois Application March 17, 1948, Serial No. 15,432
2 Claims. (Cl. 38-140) This invention relates to an ironing board pad and cover, and its primary object is to provide ya combined ironing board pad and cover which may be applied easily and readily over an ironing board as a single unit.
Another object of the invention is the provision of a one-piece ironing board pad and ironing board cover which is secured together as a single unit, the same being so constructed and arranged that the pad portion will be on the top only of the ironing board while the cover will extend down over the sides and thereby overcome bunchiness by having a single thickness about the edges of the board, there being elastic material along the outer edges of the combined ironing board pad and cover so that it will snap easily over the ironing board.
A further object of the invention is the provision of a single device which accomplishes the dual purpose of an ironing board cover and a pad, and at the same time makes a neat fit over the ironing board and overcomes the usual thick, bulky side edges which are conventional when the pad and cover are made singly; also, the provision of arranging the pad with respect to the cover so that it will always maintain its same position and still cover adequately the ironing board.
Numerous other objects and advantages will be apparent throughout the progress of the specil cation which follows.
The accompanying drawing illustrates a selected embodiment of the invention, and the views therein are as follows:
Fig. 1 is a detail perspective view of one form of ironing board of the type known as a sleeve ironing board;
Fig. 2 is a detail transverse sectional view on the line 2-2 of Fig. 1, on a greatly enlarged scale; and
Fig. 3 is a detail view of the combined ironing board pad and cover prior to its application to an ironing board.
The particular construction herein shown for the purpose of illustrating the invention has its application with respect to an ironing hoard of the so-called sleeve type, although it is understood of course that the invention is applicable for any type of an ironing board. Regardless of whether the ironing board is of the sleeve type or any other conventional type, it comprises an ironing board proper I having an upper surface 2. The board l may be made of Wood, metal or any other material capable of performing ythe function for which it is intended. The ironing board 2 l is adapted to be covered by the combined iron ing board pad and cover 3.
The combined ironing board pad and cover 3 comprises a pad of material 4 which is relatively resilient as is desirable in al1 types of ironing board pads. Heretofore, a pad has been applied to an ironing board and then an ironing board cover has been applied over the pad, but this arrangement creates considerable bulkiness along the side edges of the ironing board, and very often the pad slips or becomes wrinkled and is uneven. By making the pad as a unitary part of the cover and by providing a resilient material about the edge of the cover, there is always exerted on the pad a certain stretch so that the pad and cover will always remain smooth and free of wrinkles.
The pad 4 is rst laid out to the conguration of the ironing board to which it is to be applied, and extends completely to the outer edges 5 of the ironing board I. An ironing board cover 6 is secured to the pad by stitching at the points indicated at 1, Figs. 1 and 2. The stitching is very close to the extreme outer edge 8 of the pad so that there will be a single thickness 9 only of material about the edges of the board. Resilient tape I0, having elastic qualities, such as for instance rubber, may be sewed completely about the entire periphery of the pad, the same being stitched along the line ll, Fig. 2. This elastic or resilient tape is adapted to be stretched when it is applied over the ironing board, and always has a contacting urging action not only on the pad itself, but also on the cover, thereby holding the pad and cover tightly and snugly in position, and overcomes wrinkles, as well as preventing shifting of the pad with respect to the cover. It is desirable that the cover be made of materia] woven from asbestos thread whereby the ironing board cover is reproof. The asbestos cover also preserves the pad and prevents the pad from burning because it is protected from the hot iron by the asbestos cover.
The invention provides a combined ironing board pad and cover which may be applied to an ironing board as a unit, which prevents shifting movement of the pad with respect to the cover, and by extending the pad no further than the outer edge of the ironing board, there will only be a single thickness of material about the peripheral edges of the ironing board and, therefore, bulkiness will be overcome. Also, the elastic material about the periphery of the cover causes a stretching action not only on the cover but also on the secured pad so as to render the pad and cover free from wrinkles.
Changes may be made in the form, construction and arrangement of the parts without departing from the spirit of the invention or sacrificing any of its advantages, and the right is hereby reserved to make all such changes as fall fairly within the scope of thev following claims.
The invention is hereby claimedv as follows 1. A combined ironing board pad and cover comprising a pad of resilient material and a; fabric cover of size larger than thepad, said-padbeing disposed upon the underside of said cover with the marginal edges of the pad stitchingly secured to the cover inwardly of the' peripheralv edges thereof at and along the marginal edges of the pad, and elastic binding material secured to free peripheral edges of the cover, whereby the pad and cover are stretched when appliedto theA ironing board and maintained in wrinkle-proof 20 condition,
2. A combined ironing board pad and'. co'veri' comprising, al resilient pad of a size' substantially equal to the top of the ironing board, a coverV over the pad and stitched to the pad along the marginal edges of the pad, said coverrhaving peripheral portions extending outwardly of the marginal edges of the pad a distance at least equal to the thickness of the board, and elastic material secured to and along the terminal edges of the peripheral portions of the cover in position to exert a* stretching action on the cover and pad to maintain said pad and cover in taut po- Y sition on the board.
