WIRE CARRIER FOR HAND-OPERATED ELECTRIC TOOLS Filed Jan. 4, 1961 United States Patent 3,032,983 WIRE CARRIER FOR HAND-GPERATED ELECTRIC T6015 Sigurd Johan Kailer, Linhoping, Sweden, assignor to Bengt Gunner Nilssen, Bodafors, Sweden Filed Jan. 4, 1961, Ser. No. 89,666 Claims priority, application Sweden Mar. 11, 196i) 1 Claim. (Cl. 248-51) This invention relates to wire carriers for electric flat irons and other hand-operated electric tools used for the working on objects placed on a table.
A purpose of the invention is such a wire carrier which at the operation of the tool effectively keeps the wire clear of the tool and of the object in question.
In the accompanying drawing the preferred form of the invention has been shown.
In said drawing:
FIGURE 1 is a perspective view of a wire carrier installed on an ironing table and shown in a working position; and
FIGURE 2 is a similar view showing the wire carrier in an idle position, in which it is folded down against the table leaf.
A bar 4 is in two points bent at right angles, and using as a shaft a portion 5 of the bar parallel to the longitudinal direction of the leaf 1 of the ironing table and situated at a distance from a main portion 4 of the bar, the bar is swingably journalled in a socket 3, which by means of a clamping screw device 2 on the underside of the table leaf is attached to one short side, in the shown embodiment the right short side, of the leaf. The portion 6 of the bar connecting the main portion 4 of the bar with the shaft portion 5 is arranged to co-operate with a yoke 7, which is laying on the leaf and attached to the socket in such a manner, that in the working position as shown in FIGURE 1 said main portion 4 is situated outside and above the leaf and in the main parallel to the longitudinal direction of the leaf. FIG- URE 2 shows the bar as swung down against the tableleaf to an idle position.
A sleeve 8 is slidable along the bar and to the sleeve a three sided rectangularly bent rod 9 is attached by an end portion, which is wound some turns around the sleeve to a coil 14. Around each of the three portions of the preferably resilient rod a roll 10 is rotatably journalled.
When an article of clothing is to be ironed by means of an electric iron 11 the conducting wire 12 of the iron is inserted through the interval 15 between the free end of the rod 9 and the sleeve 8 into the rectangular loop as formed by the sleeve together with the rod 9 and the rolls 10, whereafter the plug 13 of the wire is plugged into an electric outlet in a wall. At the ironing the fiat iron is moved to and fro, whereby the conducting wire brings the loop 810 with itself along the bar 4 simultaneously as the wire can run to and fro through the loop, said movement being facilitated by the rolls 1%. Hereby the weight of the longer portion of the wire situated between the plug 13 in the outlet in the wall and the loop stretches the shorter and therefore lighter portion of the wire between the loop and the iron, so the wire will be kept clear of the iron and of the clothing to be ironed.
At a modified embodiment the rod 9 is attached by its two ends to the sleeve thereby forming a closed loop or frame.
What I claim is:
A carrier for the current conducting wires of electric appliances or the like, including a clamp for securing said carrier to a support, a generally L-shaped bar having one leg thereof pivotally mounted in said clamp, the other leg of said L-shaped bar extending longitudinally of the support, said bar movable from an inoperative position in engagement with the support to an operative position in spaced parallel relation thereto and in a plane outside the plane of the marginal edge of the support, means fixed to said clamp and engageable with the leg of said L-shaped bar pivotally mounted therein to limit pivotal movement thereof, a sleeve slidably mounted on the longitudinally extending leg of said bar, a substantially U-shaped carrier member having a first leg thereof secured to said sleeve, a bight portion parallel to said sleeve, a second leg parallel to said first leg and having a free end terminating in closely spaced relation to said sleeve, the first leg, bight portion, and second leg include rollers journalled thereon, the free end of said second leg and a portion of said sleeve defining a passage through which the wire of an appliance is inserted into the carrier member.
