Application tiled August 2, 1904. Serial No. 219,201.

To all whom, it may concern:

Be it known. that I, JACOB F. SIEBENTHAL,

e citizen of the United States, residing at Sen Diego, in the county of San Diego and State of" California, have invented a new and usefulIroning-Board, of which the following is a '1 specification.

This invention relates generally to ironingboards, and more particularly to an improved means for supporting the board in s 5 horizontal position for ironing purposes and in a vertical position close to the wall when not in use, said supporting means being attzurhed to the wall.

The invention consists in the novel fes tures of construction hereinafter fully described, and pointed out in the claims.

In the drawings forniingapart of this specification, Figure 1 is a perspective view show ing the board supported in a horizontal position. Fig. 2 is a view showing the manner of supporting the board in a vertical position; and Fig. 3 is a longitudinal sectional View of" the board in a horizontal position, the other parts being shown in elevation.

In carrying out my invention I employ two upright strips A, which are secured to the well and chair board, as shown, the lower ends of the uprights being cut away, as shown at A, to receive the chair-board.

B indicates the ironing-board, the rear end of which rests between the uprights A, ends cross-rod (I, connected to the rear end of the board by means of a metal .clip D, Works in the vertical recesses A produced in the. inner faces of the uprights A, said cross-bar C heving its ends projecting beyond the side edges of the board, as most clenrly shown in Fig. 3.

E E indicate the oppositely-disposed inwardly-projecting arms attached tothe uprights A about midway their height, the rear end of the board being adapted to rest upon in a Vertical position, shown in 3 said arms when the board is held in hori- 1 zontal position, as shown in i, end when the heard is turned against thewell nil heid'.

W 2.these nrrns PIGVrlli the board oiling weirdly. i F indicates the leg or support, which pivotnlly connected to the bottom. of the board by means of thehreciiets h" and th pivot-hnil FF. hen the board is turned up to a vertical position, the support assumes the vertical position also and rests upon the under farce oi' the board, most clearly shown in Fig. 2.

It will thus be seen that I provide an exceedingly cheap, simple, and eilicicnt means for supporting an ironinghosrd in either a horizontal position or a vertical position.

Having thus fully described my invention, what 1 claim as new, and desire to secure Letteis/ Pat tent, is

1. Thecomhination with the uprights, provided with recesses on their inner feces, oi the inwardly-projecting arms connected to said uprights, the ironing hoard having e cross-rod connected at one end by a clip, the ends of said rod working in the recesses in the= upright, and the support pivotnlly connected to the under side of the board, for the pur pose described.

2. '1 1e con'ibinntion *ith the uprights, he ing recesses in their inne midway their length, of en ironing-hoard lie-ring or 3:5 rod connected s one end of; e clip,'the e ids of said rod woi mg in the'recess in the up rights, and the inwardly-orojcicting arms on nested to said z iprights, or the purpose as scribed.
