ROBERT L. KOHR, OF POINT RICHMOND,
CALIFORNIA.
IRONING-BOARD.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, ROBERT L. Konn, a citizen of the United States, residing at Point Richmond, in the county of Contra /osta and State of California,have invented new and useful Improvements in Ironing- Boards, of which the following is a specification.
The present invention relates to an improvement in ironing boards, the object of the invention being to provide an ironing board which can be so adjusted as to be supported upon the edge of any table, window sill, shelf, or other projecting device of any thickness within ordinary limits.
The invention resides in the novel construction of the arrangement of parts, for the above ends, hereinafter specified, and particularly pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of the ironing board; Fig. 2 is an enlarged longitudinal section of the same partly in elevation; Fig. 3 is a cross section on the line 8-3 of Fig. 2; Fig. l is a perspective view of the bracket.
Referring to the drawing, 1 indicates the board tapering slightly to one end 2, and at its wider end being formed with a wide central tongue 3 and with beveled shoulders l facing downward.
5 indicates legs connected across the bottom by a cross bar 6, each leg formed at the top with a notch 7, the vertical edge 8 of which is adapted to abut against the vertical edge of the table 9 or other support for the ironing board, while the horizontal edge 10 rests upon the top of said table. Each leg is formed with a longitudinal series of holes 11 through one of which passes a bolt 12, which also passes through a slot 14 in a plate 15,said plates extending from the ends of a bracket 16. Said plates contact with the inner surfaces of the legs, and wing nuts 17 are screwed upon said bolts and clamp said plates to said legs. The bracket 16 is formed with holes 18 through which loosely pass staples 19 secured to, and depending from, the ironing board. Said bracket is extended at the ends, as shown at 20, said extensions Specification of Letters Patent.

being triangular in form, the oblique sides of said extensions resting upon the upper surfaces of the legs, while the horizontal sides contact with the under surface of the board 1 and support the same. The tongue 3 of the board extends beneath the table 9 or other support, which table is, by the pressure. on the ironing board, firmly clamped between .said tongue and the notched ends of the legs.
21 indicates a plate secured to the upper surface of the board between the legs, extending first upward, then back on itself, and then rearwardly away from the table to form a support for a flat iron when not in use, said rearward extension 22 being spaced above the ironing board to permit the blanket or similar cover for the board to be inserted between said board and the plate.
It will be observed that, by reason of the above construction, a very wide range of adjustment is provided. The slots 14 in the side plates of the bracket permit of adjustment to any position within a range corresponding to the distance between two successive holes 11 of the series in the legs.
The holes 11 themselves permit of adjust-,
ment to any position from one end of the series to the other. Also the connection of the ironing board to the legs by means 0 the staples and bracket enables-the ironing board to be folded up, onthe frame formed by the legs and the bracket, into a very small compass when not in use. Furthermore, it will be observed that the pressure 'on the ironing board, is transmitted to the legs through the triangular extensions of the bracket, and not through, a pivotal pin connecting said legs and ironing board.
I claim 1. In combination with legs having notched ends to engage a table, an ironing board having a tongue between said legs, and a bracket secured to the under side of said board, having at each end a part with. upper and lower surfaces meeting at an angle, the lower surface being adapted to rest upon the leg at said end, and the under side of the ironing board being adapted to l ironing board and passing through said 10 rest upon said upper surface, substantially as described.
2. In combination With legs having notches to engage a table, an ironing board having a tongue between said legs, a bracket extending betwen said legs and adjustably connected thereto and having apertures, and staples secured to the under side of said apertures, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my handin the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
