UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
ISAAC 'W. LEGG, OF JERSEY CITY, NEYV JERSEY.
IRONING. AND BOSOM BOARD.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 374,980, dated December 20, 1887.
Application filed August 13, 1887. Serial No. 246,873. (No model.)
To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, ISAAC W. LEGG, a citizen of the United States, residing at Jersey City, in the county of Hudson and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Ironing and Bosom Boards, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure l is a perspective view illustrating my invention as applied to the side of a room; a
and Fig. 2, a similar view of the same when arranged to be portable, with the board detached, for the better illustration of the construction.
This invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in ironing-boards, and has for its object to simplify and cheapen and render more efficient in operation this class of devices.
The invention consists in the peculiar combinations and the novel construction, arrangement, and adaptation of parts, all as more fully hereinafter described, and then particularly pointed out in the claim.
Referring to the details of the drawings, A in Fig. 1 indicates a portion of the side of a room, and a the base-board thereof. nates a socket-plate secured to the wall at a proper distance from the floor, the socket b in said plate being designed to receive the lug c,projecting downwardly from the ironingboard 0.
The board 0 is made of any suitable material adapted for the purpose, and may be of any suitable length. At one end it is provided with the lug 0, above referred to, and at its other end formed with shoulders cl and a substantially V-shaped projection, D. Near its rear end this board is formed with recesses 0, cut in opposite sides, and in which are pivoted the buttons E. These buttons are pivoted at e, near their rear ends, and are so arranged that when in the position shown in Fig. 1 their outer faces are flush with the edges of the board 0. The forward ends of these buttons are beveled, and the front ends of the recesses c are beveled to correspond Near the center of their length these buttons are provided with recesses f,
B desigstretched into the recess e.
and forward of these recesses they are reduced somewhat in thickness, so as to leave a spacing, between their inner faces and the inner side walls of the recesses, as shown in Fig. 1.
In practice the lug a of the board G is inserted in the socket b of the socket-plate, and the buttons F (which are pivoted at h) are turned down so as to bear upon the top of the board above said lug, as shown in Fig. 1, when the board will be firmly held in place. To support the forward end of the board I attach to it, or preferably to a cleat, H, secured across its under side, a brace, I, as shown.
' The construction shown in Fig. 2 is identical, to that shown in Fig. 1 in all its essentials, the socket-plate and buttons F being shown in Fig. 2 as attached to a separate support, K, whichmay be moved about and placed in any position desired.
To disengage the board it is only necessary to turn the buttons F in the position shown in Fig. 2, when the board may be easily removed from the socket.
The part B of the socket-plate forms a support for the rear end of the board, as well as a hold for the lug c.
I attach importance to my buttons E and their peculiar construction and arrangement. In operation the neck of the shirt is placed over the projection D and the tail of the shirt The buttons E are then turned down, grasping the shirt between their beveled ends and the beveled walls of the recesses, the recesses f and the spaces 9 providing room for the hem and gussets or stays; or, if an unusually long shirt is being ironed, the recesses f will allow of the same being folded or rolled up, as they will accommodate several thicknesses of material. When the buttons E are turned down, the shirt will be securely held in place, the beveled ends of the buttons and the bevel of the recesses a forming a tight wedge-shaped look.
What I claim as new is- As an improved article of manufacture, an ironing board provided at one end with downwardly-projectinglug c and near its rear end with recesses e, and the buttons E, pivtoo oted in said recesses with their outer faces In testimony whereof Iaffixmysignature, in flush with the outer edges of the board and presence of two witnesses, this 13th day of Auformed upon their inner faces with recessesf, gust, 1887.
and reduced in thickness forward of said re- ISAAC W. LEGG. 5 cesses to leave a space, 9, between said inner \Vitnesses: Y
face and the side walls of the recesses a, sub WVM. T. ROBERTSON,
stantially as and for the purposes specified. N. DUMONT.
