CLOTHES HANGER FOR IRONING BOARDS Filed Dec. 27, 1949 Patented July 31, 1951 .UNITED STATES PATENT" oFFICs Leonard W. Kois, Chicago, Ill.
Application December 27, 1949, Serial No. 135,087
1 Claim.
My invention relates to devices designed for application to ironing boards for the support of garments in a handy place after they have been ironed, and one object of the present invention is to provide a device of this kind which may be easily attached to one end of the ironing board to extend rearwardly thereof in an out-of-theway position.
A further object is to design the device with one portion as a spring clamp for the ironing board and a continuation of such portion in the form of a bracket formed with hooks for the suspension of hangers on which the garments are hung.
Another object is to construct the novel device with a bottom portion to serve as the clamp referred to, and to extend the continuation in a poised position, so that the garments may be suspended at a height where they will not touch the iloor or hang close to the same.
An additional object is to construct the device in one piece from sturdy material, whereby to make its manufacture inexpensive and render the device durable over a long period of use.
With the above objects in view, and any others which may suggest themselves from the description to follow, a better understanding of the invention may be had by reference to the accompanying drawing, in which- Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the device, showing its application;
Fig. 2 is an enlarged top plan of the device with a fragment of the ironing board shown;
Fig. 3 is a side elevation of the device on the same scale as in Fig. 2;
Fig. 4 is a top plan View of a fragment of the device on a magnified scale; and
Fig. 5 is a section on the line 5-5 of Fig. 4.
Referring specically to the drawing, I0 denotes a typical ironing board of the table type, and it is noted in Fig. 1 that the novel device is applied to the rear end of the board.
The device is primarily in the form of a broad steel clamp I2, which is slid over the rear end' of the board IU to assume the position shown in Fig. 3, the clamp being designed to exert a rm grip on the table.
The clamp I2 takes an upward curve at I3 and a return bend I4, the latter being of reduced width. The bend I4 continues as a bracket I5 which rises inclinedly to a poised position behind the board, terminating with a slight downward curve as indicated at I6. While the material of the clamp I2 is flat stock, the bend I4 and bracket I5 are formed as a channel having upward walls Il. Finally, a number of hooks I8 are struck down from the floor of the bracket to extend rearwardly as shown in Fig. 3, the hooks being spaced equally along the bracket.
When the use of the device is required it may be quickly clamped to the ironing board as shown in Fig. 3. Then, after each garment has been ironed it may be hung on a conventional hanger 2G and suspended from one of the bracket hooks I8 as shown in Fig. 1. Thus, the garments are disposed of conveniently and' without necessitating the person ironing to leave the region of the ironing board; and the garments are hung away from surrounding furniture, walls, or other objects so that they will not become soiled or creased. Further, the rise of the bracket I 5 makes it convenient to hang the shorter garments on the lower hooks and the longer ones on the higher hooks, So that all the garments will hang high above the oor and be safe against soiling from bottom Contact. Further, the bracket I5 is suliciently long to vaccommodate a relatively large number of garments. It is understood that garments commonly ironed at home are of light weight, and they will therefore not impose any strain on the bracket I5 or assume a tendency to overbalance the ironing board. Further, the form oi the device and the position of its application to the board make it a continuation of the latter, so to speak, leaving the space on both sides of the board and the device clear for passage, so that the device may be considered as both convenient to the person doing the ironing and out of the way insofar as the surrounding space is concerned. Finally, it is apparent that the device, by its one piece construction, is of utmost simplicity; and it may be made of suicient strength to be durable over a long period of use.
While I have described the invention along specific lines various minor changes or renements may be made therein without departing from its principle, and I reserve the right to employ all such changes and refinements as may come within the scope and spirit of the appended claim.
I claim:
A clothes hanger for a table type ironing board comprising a substantially U-shaped spring clamp engageable with the ironing board from the side, the upper portion of the clamp being continued in upward direction with a return bend, an extension of the latter with a rising incline, the sides-of said upper portion converging with upward walls to form said return bend and extension into a channel shaped bracket, and a longitudinal series of hooks struck down from the bottom of said bracket to serve as garment hanger supports.
