FLATIRONY SUPPORT v Filed NQy. 18, 195e www Patented June 28, 1938 PATENT OFFICE 2,122,354 v FIATIRON sUrPoR'r Frida. Schrch and Anton Ilg, Zurich, Switzerland Application November 18, 1936, SerialNo. 111,468 In Switzerland November 22, 1935 2 Claims.
When employing supports for llatirons now in common use, a portion of the ironing board or table is either obstructed so that it is impossible to iron on the entire surface thereof, or alter- 5 natively to place ythe support for the flatiron on a chair adjacentthe table. In the latter yinstance, it becomes necessary for the user of the iron to move about agood deal and to frequently elevate the "flatiron from its position on the chair to the surface of the table or ironing board, thus greatly increasing the labor attending the ironing operation.
One of the objects of the present invention is to construct a atiron support which may stand on or be supported from the ironing board, thus obviating the disadvantages of prior constructions referred to above.
The novel iiatiron holder is characterized by a base plate provided with an insulated supporting plate in spaced relation to the base plate. The base and insulating plates are inclined with respect to the horizontal when the holder either rests on supporting legs provided for this purpose or when the holder is hung vertically from an ironing board or table. One of the longitudinal sides of the holder is provided with an upright wall and one of the shorter sides with a transverse wall. The side opposite the aforementioned longitudinal side is characterized by an apertured supporting wall, while the side opposite the transverse wall is open to permit the iron to rest on the insulating plate.
Other constructional features will be pointed out hereinafter and attention is now directed to y the drawing forming a. part hereof and in which is illustrated one form of the invention and in which:
Fig. 1 is a front elevational view of the novel flatiron support.
Fig. 2 is a sectional view taken on line A-B of Fig. 1 and Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the novel flatiron holder or support constructed according to the instant invention.
y Referring to the drawing, it will be seen that the novel flatiron holder is characterized by an insulating plate I in spaced relationy to a base plate 2 situated therebeneath. By reference to Figs. 2 and 3, it will be seen that the base plate 2 is characterized by upwardly extending walls 3, 4 and 5 structurally integral therewith and constituting extensions thereof, the wall 3 forming one longitudinal side of the base plate, the wall 4 a transverse side and a longitudinal and broad wall 5, to which reference will be made hereinafter, the other longitudinal side of the novel ironing holder or support. Each of Walls 3, 4 and 5 is provided with inwardly projecting lugs B stamped out from the single sheet of metal characterizing the .base plate 2 and its walls 3, 4 5 and 5, said lugs serving to hold the ilatiron, when positioned on the insulating plate, in spaced relation to the aforementioned walls. By referring to Fig. 3, it will be appreciated that the wall 4 and its lugs 6 being in a lower horizontal plane 10 than the opposite edge of the insulating plate I, serves to hold the flatiron in place on said insulating base or plate I. The base plate 2 is provided with a series of apertures 'I which serve to permit the warm air from the flatiron to cir- 15 culate about the holder being aided by radiation sheet 8 which has its upper portions fixed to a pair of integral supporting legs 9 and I0, the extremities l I of which pass through the base plate 2 and forming a space I2 therebetween for re- 20 taining the plate I in spaced relation thereto. It will be noted that the height of the opposite vertical portions of the legs 9 .and I0, respectively, vary, that is, the height of the vertical portions of the legs 9 and I0, respectively, adjacent the 25 side wall 4, is less than the height of the vertical portions of the respective legs adjacent that portion of the base plate 2 not provided with a side wall. A screw I3 serves to fasten the insulating plate I to the base plate 2. 30
Referring for the moment to Figs. 1 and 3, it will be noted that the tall supporting broad wall 5 is provided with a series of spaced apertures I4, and in addition to the inwardly projecting lug 6 on one face of the plate 5, said plate is provided 35 with a series of projections I5 on its opposite side face adjacent the top edge thereof.
An angle iron or a bracket I8 is adapted to be secured to the edge of an ironing board or table, said bracket being provided with a sheet 40 of insulating material I9 on the outer face thereof, and with a pair of spaced buttons or knobs 20. The wall 5 has a pair of openings 2| adjacent the top edge thereof through which the knobs or buttons 20 are adapted to be inserted for detach- 4:5l
er may be detached from the angle iron or bracket i8 Whicl is permanently xed to an ironing table or board l22. It Will also be obvious that the flatiron may be supported yon the insulating plate I in afi-position in which it will not readily be dislodged for the reasonhat thisplate is inclined tothe horizontal so that the flatiron is held lay-gravity against the side Wall 4. If desired, the flatiron helder may be supported on its legs 9 and I, the holder being placed on the ironing tab-le 22 orga chairgor other support.v a
Due tothe insulating features of the inventionL such as the projections 6, insulating plate l,( radiation plate 8 andiinsulating board I9,r thefrdan-l ger of a cenagration resulting from the use of a hot flatiron with the novel flatiron support is virtually limited. ledrthermcre, the .ironing cloth will not be singed or burned, as has been the practice heretofore, when a iiatiron is placed thereon. i
Other advantages Will be apparent to those skilled in the art to which the invention appertains and it Will be understoodi that various changes and modicatioris may be made in the constructional details of the invention, and it is desired to cover all such, and to be limited in this respect anly as may be necessary by the claims hereto appended.'
What We claimiand desire to secure byrLetters :i lgatent is: *l
1. A flatiron supporter holder comprising a base plate having three of its edges bent upwardly to form a pair of longitudinallyi extending side Walls and a transverse end Wall, ene of said longitudinally extending Walls projecting materially above the surface of the base plate and being providednwith a series o; apertures, said apertured longitudinal wall having means for detachably securing it to a support and said base plate ilaving legs of uneven lheight at opposed ends thereof, Ysaid transverse end W'allrbeing adjacent that portion of the base plate haying the shorter legs, whereby a ilatiron will life positioned in abutting'relationship respect to said transverse Wall whenthe holder is either hung by said apertured longitudinal wall or rests on its legs.
2. Inga flatiron supporter holder having a flat Ybase plate three edges of which are bent upward-YY 2 ly to form a pair of longitudinally extending side' Walls and a transverse end Wall, said bfase plate rbeing provided with spaced apertures, legs of uneven height having the-:upper end portions thereof projecting through lrrsaid'apertures, an insulating plate abpve said base plate, the ends of said legs supporting said insulating plate in spaced relation to said base plate, and means securing said insulating and base plates together.
