ORA MAXWELL CLINE, 0F MARION, OHIO. I
IRONING-BOARD.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ORA MAXWELL CLINE, a citizen of the United States, residing at Marion, in the county of Marion and State of Ohio, have invented new and useful Improvements in Ironing-Boards, of which the following is a specification.
This invention is an improved ironing board mounted so that when not in use it may be folded up against the wall or other support out of the way and provided with a hinged supporting device for use when the board is lowered and which when the board is raised may be folded up against the outer side of the board. A spring catch is provided to engage the said supporting device when it and the board are raised so as to lock the board and the supporting device in place as hereinafter described and claimed.
In the accompanying drawings :Figure 1 is a perspective view of my improved ironing board showing the same in raised position. Fig. 2 is a side elevation, partly in section, showing the board in lowered position. Fig. 3 is a detail perspective view showing one of the hinge connections between the supporting frame or rack and the board. Fig. 4 is a detail sectional view of the upper portion of the board and supporting rack, showing the same engaged by the spring catch.
In accordance with my invention, the ironing board 1 is hinged at its lower end as at 2 to a vertical wall or other supporting wall indicated at a, the hinges 2 being here shown as secured on a bar 3 which is secured to said wall or support. The hinges 2 are connected together by a pintle rod t on which is a coil spring 5 which acts to assist in raising the board to a vertical position so as to render it comparatively easy to turn the board from a horizontal to a vertical position. Near the upper end of the board Specification of Letters Patent.

Serial No. 492,911.
is an opening 6 which when the board is raised permits the passage of a spring catch 7 which projects from the supporting wall or surface a.
A supporting rack 10 which comprises a pair of uprights 11 and cross bars 12, 13, respectively near their inner and outer ends is secured at its inner end to the outer side of the board 1 by means of hinges 14 so that the said supporting rack may be turned to a vertical position when the board is lowered as shown in Fig. 2 to support the board in such position and when the board is raised as shown in Fig. 1 may be turned upwardly and caused to bear on the outer side of the board in which position the upper cross bar 13 of said supporting rack engages the spring catch 7 so that the catch serves to look not only the supporting rack but also the board in such elevated position. This rack in addition to use as a supporting leg for the board may be also used as a towel rack or for other analogous purposes and hence my improved ironing board is rendered exceedingly useful.
WVhat is claimed is In combination with a vertical support, an ironing board hinged at one end to such support, a catch projecting from said support and a supporting member for the board hinged thereto and adapted when the board is raised to be turned up against the board and engaged by the catch to lock said supporting member and the board in a vertical position, and a spring tending to raise said board.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
ORA MAXWELL CLINE.
