IRoNlNe-TABLE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 469,431, dated February 23, 1892.
Application Iiled August 25, 1891. Serial No. 403689. (No model.)
To all whom t may concern.-
Be it known that I, GILBERT BACON, a citien of the United States, residing at Antigo, in the county of Langlade and State of Tisconsin, have invented a new and usefulIroning-Table, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to ironing-tables, and more especially to that class which are adapted to be detachably connected with the edge of another table.
Theobject of the invention is to provide certain improvements in devices of this character, to which end it consists of `the details of construction hereinafter more fully described and claimed, and as illustrated on the sheet of drawings, wherein- Figure l is a side elevation of this improved device attached to a table. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section of the device with the hinged leg removed. Fig. 3 is a bottom plan view of the device in folded condition. Fig. 4 is a detail perspective of the leg and one of the levers slightly separated.
Referring to the said drawings, the letter B designates the ironing-board, to whose lower surface is secured a cleat C, having openings O therethrough. In these openings are Inovably seated bolts J, near each end of the cleat,which extend through levers or arms.
A, as shown. The outer ends of these levers are iush with the end of the board and are provided with dovetailed notches N, which may be coated with rubber R, as shown, and their inner ends, which converge slightly, as illustrated, are provided on their inner faces with longitudinal slots S.
The letter L designates a single leg, which is connected by a hinge H to the bottom of the board B at such point that when opened it will move between the inner ends of the arms A, and this leg has a transverse pin Q, whose projecting ends move loosely in the slots S. Thus when'the leg is opened, as shown in Fig. l, the pin Q causes the inner ends of the arms A to be moved away from the board; but, on the other hand, when the leg is folded, as shown in Fig. 3, the pin causes the inner ends of the arms to be moved close upwardly against the board. A
The letter T designates the top of an ordinary table; or this may be a wind0w-sill, the wainscoting of a room, or any other object, preferably wood. To this table-top is secured a dovetailed strip D in the manner best seen in Fig. 2 and at a proper distance from the upper face of the tabletop.
In operation, after the cleat D has been secured to the edge of the tabletop the device may be brought into position with the end of 6o the board B upon the cleat, the latter then being above the notches N, and the leg L is turned down so as to rest upon the floor. This movement of the leg causes the arms A to rock, their bolts J moving in the openings O in the cleat C, and as a result the inner ends of the arms are moved upwardly, so that the notches N engage the dovetailed cleat D. After this ironing maybe done upon the board in the usual manner; but it cannot be acci- 7o dentally detached from the table-top.
Various changes in the general-construction and details may bemade without departing from the spirit of my invention.
What I claim as new is- In an ironing-table, the combination, with the board, a cleat secured to the lower face thereof and having openings therethrough, bolts loosely mounted in said openings, and arms having their outer ends flush with the 8o ends of the board and converging toward their inner ends, which are provided on their inner faces with longitudinal slots, said bolts passing through the arms between the ends, of a leg connected by a hinge to the bottom 8 5 of the board, and a transverse pin through said leg, its extremities engaging' said slots, as and for the purpose set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I have hereto affixed my signature in 9o presence of two witnesses.
GILBERT BACON. i
