IRONING-BOARD ATTACHMENT. l
' Specification of Letters Patent.
' Patented July 18, 1916.
Application filed November 15, 1915. Serial No. 61,719.
T 0 all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, MARY'L. HARRISON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Rochester, in the county of Monroe and State of New York, have invented new and useful Improvements in Ironing-Board Attachments, of which the following is a specification.
The primary object of the present invention is the provision of an attachment for ironing boards, in the nature of a support for that portion of the clothes which overhangs the edges of the board while being ironed, in spaced relation to the floor to prevent soiling of the same. v
To this end the invention consists of horizontally disposed rods supported above and below the opposite edges of the board, and which are capable of being folded against their respective sides of the board when not in use.
Another important object of the invention resides in the provision of an attachment of this nature capable of being supported in different angular and elevated positions to accommodate itself to the various articles to be ironed.
Other objects will appear as the nature and advantages of the invention are better understood from the following description when taken in connection with the accompanying drawing.
In the drawing forming part of this application like numerals of reference indicate similar parts in the several views and wherein Figure 1 is a perspective view of a board showing my attachments in position for use. Fig. 2 is an end elevation. Fig. 3 is a transverse sectional view. Fig. 4 is an end elevation showingv the attachments in folded position against the opposite sides of the board.
The device forming the subject matter of my invention comprises a pair of spaced clamps 5 adapted to embrace one longitudinal edge of the board 6 adjacent its opposite ends, and held-in position thereon by means of the thumb screws 7 Pivotally mounted upon the clamps are the supports 8 upon which is mounted the rod 9.
Secured to the under side of the board adjacent one end and the opposite longitudinal edge thereof is a clamp 10 in which is mounted the bracket 11 for vertical swinging movement, the latterbeing formed with a sleeve 12. at its free end for the, reception of the rod 13, whereby the rod may be swung to different angular positions with relation to the under side of the board, and held in adjusted position by means of a thumb screw 14 associated with the clamp 10.
In use, the clothes to be ironed, are placed upon the board in the usual manner, and that portion thereof'which generally overhangs one edge of the board is supported upon the rod 9, while that portion which generally overhangs the opposite longitudinal edge of the board is supported upon the rod 13, thereby eliminating all possibility of the clothes coming in; contact with the floor, with a view of obviating soiling of the clothes while being ironed. I In order to accommodate the attachment to articles of clothes of various dimensions, I construct each of the supports 8 with two adjustable sections-l5 and 16 respectively, the sections 16 of each support carrying the rod 9 at their upper ends, and a set screw 17 at their lower ends slidably mounted in a slot 18 in the lower sections 15, with a view of looking the sections 16 and rod 9 in different degrees of elevation. The upper end of the sections 15 is formed with a lug 21 received within the slot 22 of the sections 16 to guide the latter in their movement to adjusted position. The lower sections 15 are pivotally mounted upon the clamps 5 whereby the supports 8 and rods .9 may be arranged in diiferent angular positions with relation to the board 5, and held in said position by means of the clamp nuts 23. By reason of these various adjustments of the rod 9, to-
, gether with thelateral adjustments of the rod 13, it will be manife'st that clothing of di'lferent dimensions may be supported by the attachment in spaced relation to the floor for the purpose hereinabove stated, and at the same time be conveniently moved about the board when desired while ironing thesame. The rod 13 adjacent the free end thereofiis formed with a longitudinally disposed-recess 24 in which is pivoted a pin 25 adapted to be arranged in the position shown in Fig. 1 when the attachment is in use, to prevent the clothes from sliding endwise off the rod 13 whileshifting the latter about the board when ironing. When not in use the pin is folded within the recess.
The construction of the clamps 5 is such, as to permit of sliding adjustment of one of the clamps longitudinally of the board, with a View of increasing or decreasing the length of the rod 9 when desired, this being permissible by reason of the fact that the rod 9 comprises telescopic sections 26 and 27 respectively. It will be further noted that by reason of this adjustment one of the clamps 5 together with its support 8 may be adjusted to any position Within the length of the board with a View of clearing one end thereof to permit different articles such as shirts, skirts and the like to be slipped over the board in the ordinary, well known manner.
Then the attachment is not in use and it is desired to fold the same, the rod 9 and sections 16 of the supports are moved to their lowermost position, and the sections 15 subsequently swung upon their pivot against the upper side of the board as clearly shown in Fig. 4:. The thumb screw '14 is then loosened to permit the bracket 11 with the rod 12 to be swung to one side against the under surface of the board as clearly shown in Fig. 4. The attachment in its entirety is extremely simple in construction to permit of its quick association with the board or removal therefrom, and when associated to be readily and easily adjusted for the purposes hereinabove described.
It is believed that from the foregoing de scription the nature and advantages of the invention will be thoroughly understood without requiring a more extended explanation and therefore the same has been omitted. V
What is claimed is 4 An ironing board attachment comprising a pair of clamps secured to one longitudinal edge of the board, supports projecting therefrom comprising relatively slidable slotted sections, means for guiding said sections in their adjusted positions, and means for holding said sections in a fixed position, the lowermost section being pivotally connected to said clamp to fold upon said board, and a horizontally disposed rod carried by said supportsl MARY L. HARRISON.
