HANGER OR SUPPORT FOR SAD-IRONS.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 561,245, dated J une 2, 1896. Application filed February 4, 1896. Serial No. 577,997. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, GEORGE HENRY WAG- NER, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of New York, in the county of New ,York and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Hangers or Supports for Sad-Irons, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part thereof, in which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.

This invention relates to hangers or supports for sad-irons; and the object thereof is to provide a device of this class which is adapted to be connected with the edge or side of a table or other article and from which a sad-iron may be suspended, a further object being to provide a device of this class which is simple in construction and operation and comparatively inexpensive; and with this and other objects in view the invention consists in the deviceconstructed as hereinafter described and claimed.

The invention is fully disclosed in the following specification, of which the accompanying drawings form a part, in which- Figure 1 is a side view of my improved sad-iron holder, showing the method of connecting the same with a table or other support; and Fig. 2, a back view thereof.

In the drawings forming part of this specification, C represents an ordinary table such as is generally used for ironing purposes; and in the practice of my invention I provide a sad-iron holder which is composed of heavy spring-wire, the body portion of which is bent and twisted together, and the twisted portion is then bent to form a loop or clamp A, one end of which is provided with a head a, through which passes a set-screw a which is provided on its inner end with a washer a and at the other end of the loop the separate wires of which it is composed are bent outwardly and upwardly to form arms or standards B, each of which is provided at its upper end with a curved hook I), which is adapted to support a sad-iron, one of the latter being shown in dotted lines.

The hooks b are formed integrally with the arms or standards B and project in a direction opposite to the body portion or clamp A of the hanger, and these hooks may be of any desired form, and in practice the sadiron is suspended therefrom in such manner that said iron will not touch the table or the clothes or cloth that may. be placed thereon, and the device is connected with the table, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2, and in this operation the set-screw a may or may not be employed, as desired; but if it is not employed then the separate parts or jaws a must be so formed as to securely clamp the table or other support.

My invention is not limited to the exact form of the hanger or sad-iron support herein described, and it is evident that changes therein and modifications of the construction thereof may be made without departing from the spirit of my invention or sacrificing its advantages.

Having fully described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- A hanger or support for sad-irons, which consists of a body portion which is composed of heavy spring-wire twisted together and bent to form two parts or jaws which are adapted to be connected with a table or other support, the separate wires being bent upwardly at the end of one of said parts or jaws to form upwardly-directed arms or standards, each of which is provided at its upper end with a hook which projects in a direction opposite to that of the body portion of the hanger or support, and one of said jaws or parts being also provided with a set-screw which passes. therethrough, and which is provided at its inner end with a plate or washer, substantially as shown and described.

In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my invention I have signed my name, in presence of the subscribing witnesses, this 1st day of February, 1896.

GEORGE HENRY WAGNER.
