WILLIAM B. MASON, OF BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS.
Letters Patent No. 87,503, datedMd/rch 2, 1869.
IMPROVEMENT IN FLAT-IRON'SCRAPER, POLISHER, AND STAND.
The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same.
and polish starched goods and clothing, it frequently occurs that the starch clings to the heated iron, and crus`ts thereupon, and; the plane or smoothing-surfaces of such irons frequently become ronghenedand oxidized.
The obj ect of my invention is to provide ready and convenient means for scraping and polishing the smoothingfaces of flat-irons, embodied in one device or apparatus, which also serves as a stand for th'e irons when heated and temporarily ont of use.
The drawings show, in Figure 1, a side elevation-cf i my improved device, which is also seen in plan in Figure 2.
a is a table, preferably made of iron, cast in an ornamental shape. v
On each end' of the table are secured, by steady-pins and bolts, metal strips, b, preferably of the form shown, which give a good scraping-.edge or angle at c c, which edge or angle may be sharpened as it becomes'dulled, `by grinding oli the planes c d.
These bars or strips b serve also as clamps, to secure to the face of the table a one or more sheets, fi, of abrasive polishing-material, such as emery-cloth, by preference, the sheets being slipped under the bars before the bolts securing them are tightened.
The length of the table a is such that the space bel tween the bars is greater than the'width 0f common dat-irons, so that, to smooth and polish the face of a Hat-iron, it is rubbed on the abrasive-surface t', across the table, between the bars l), .the distance apart of which is less than the length of a common fiat-iron, so that it can rest with its point-end on one bar b, and with its rear end on the other bar.
If starch catches and clings to the smoothing-snrface of a at-iron, it can be readily removed by drawing said surface over either edge or angle c.
It will readily be seen that the device is inexpensive and simple, andservcs three separate useful purposes, in connection with at-irons for families and laundries.
As one sheet of abrasive-material is worn out, it can be removed, and the next beneath exposed for use, and at any time new sheets may be secured on the table by adjustment ofthe bars b.
While I prefer to apply the abrasive-material in the form of easily-removable sheets, it may be applied, in the form of an adhering cement, to the surface of the table, or the table itself might be'made of abrasivematerial.
I claim, for the specied purpose, a bed or table, provided with one or more scraping-edges or angles, substantially as deseribed.
Also, for the specified purpose, a bed or table, surfaced with abrasive or polishing-material, substantially as described. A
Also, a bed or table, having bars b, made removable and adjustable, to operate as clamps in holding sheets of abrasive or surfacing-material. substantially as described.
WILLIAM B. MASON.
