Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to the field of devices used for ironing and/or steaming clothes and other material, and more particularly to vertical ironing boards and to their corresponding methods of use, whether commercial or residential.
  • a device constructed according to the principles of the present invention addresses these deficiencies.
  • a device for ironing fabric includes a hanger or other means for suspending the device and a rollable or foldable ironing body wrapped around the hanger.
  • the hanger has a hook rotatably connected to substantially the center of a pair of opposing shoulders.
  • the ironing body includes a resilient pad or board or rigid insert and a fabric covering surrounding the resilient pad or board or rigid insert.
  • the fabric covering has an opening for the hook at the top of the covering.
  • Figure 1 depicts a vertical ironing board in accordance with principles of the present invention
  • Figures 2(a) and 2(b) illustrate examples of a vertical ironing board suspended from a door
  • Figures 3-5 illustrate a vertical ironing board with articles of clothing in position for ironing or steaming
  • Figures 6(a), 6(b), and 6(c) depict a vertical ironing board attached to a folding stand
  • Figures 7(a), 7(b), and 7(c) depict a vertical ironing board mounted in various ways.
  • Fig. 1 is a diagram of an embodiment of a vertical ironing board in accordance with principles of the present invention.
  • the vertical ironing board 1 comprises a hanger 2 for suspending the vertical ironing board 1 , typically in a vertical position from a bracket, nail, door or other suitable point.
  • the hanger 2 comprises a hook 3 and a pair of opposing shoulders 4.
  • the hook 3 is connected to the center, i.e., mid-point, of the shoulders 4, and can be rotated with respect to the shoulders 4 such that the shoulders 4 may be reversed in their respective position to the hook 3.
  • An ironing body 5 is wrapped around the shoulders 4, and includes a resilient pad 6 and a fabric covering 7 surrounding the resilient pad 6.
  • the fabric covering 7 has an opening 8 to allow the hook 3 to pass through. Due to the flexible nature of the fabric covering 7 and the resilient pad 6, the vertical ironing board is capable of being folded or rolled up.
  • Fig. 2(a) illustrates an embodiment of a vertical ironing board 1 suspended from a nail 20 in a door 21.
  • Fig. 2(b) illustrates an embodiment of a vertical ironing board 1 suspended from a door bracket 25 hung over the top of a door 21.
  • Figure 3 illustrates a vertical ironing board 1 with a pair of slacks 22 on a slacks hanger 23 in position for ironing or steaming.
  • the clothes hanger 23 is hooked around the hook 3, and thus, the slacks 22 hang vertically in front of the vertical ironing board 1.
  • a person can iron or steam the slacks 22 using a conventional iron or steamer (not shown).
  • the door 21 behind the vertical ironing board 1 provides the support required for proper operation of the iron or steamer, while the vertical ironing board 1 insulates the door 21 from the potentially damaging heat of the iron or steamer.
  • the person When finished with one side of the slacks 22, the person can rotate the slacks 22 by rotating the hook 3 and shoulders 4 with respect to each other, in order to iron or steam the other side of the slacks 22.
  • steps are saved as creases are formed on the edges with one swipe of the iron or steamer.

  • Figs. 5(a) and 5(b) illustrate a vertical ironing board 1 in use with a shirt 24, where the body 5 of the vertical ironing board 1 has been rotated to allow ironing or steaming of the back and front, respectively, of the shirt 24.
  • Fig. 5(c) illustrates a vertical ironing board 1 in use with a shirt 24, where the sleeve of the shirt 24 is folded over the vertical ironing board 1 in position for ironing or steaming or adding a sleeve crease.
  • the vertical ironing board 1 thus addresses the problem that other ironing boards have of requiring considerable floor space during use. Furthermore, the vertical ironing board 1 is convenient for travel, since it may be folded or rolled up.
  • Another advantage of the vertical ironing board 1 is that its substantially vertical position, when in use, simplifies the process of ironing or steaming by allowing gravity to assist in releasing wrinkles.
  • a further advantage of the vertical ironing board 1 is that it eliminates the need to lift, turn and smooth out the garment, thereby saving time and reducing the energy consumed by an ironing or steaming appliance.
  • Fig. 6 depicts an alternate embodiment of a vertical ironing board 1 hung from a bracket attached to a portable folding stand 33.
  • the folding stand In Fig. 6(a), the folding stand is in position for ironing; in Fig. 6(b) the folding stand is partially folded, and in Fig. 6(c) the folding stand is fully closed and capable of being stored when not in use.
  • FIG. 7(a) depicts an alternate embodiment of a vertical ironing board 1 mounted by nails, screws or other suitable fasteners 30 to a wall.
  • Fig. 7(b) depicts an alternate embodiment of a vertical ironing board 1 rotatably mounted on a free-standing floor- based support 31.
  • Fig. 7(c) depicts an alternate embodiment of a vertical ironing board 1 mounted from a rotatable support 32 suspended from a ceiling.
  • Another alternate embodiment of the vertical ironing board 1 has a rigid insert inside of the resilient pad 6. Such an embodiment can be leaned against a wall, door, or other suitable vertical piece, and does not require hanging.
  • FIG. 7(d) depicts such an embodiment of a vertical ironing board 1 leaning against a wall.
  • the vertical ironing board 1 can also be hung in other ways, e.g., from a hook on a wall, piece of furniture, shower curtain rod or drapery rod. When hung from a drapery rod, the vertical ironing board 1 can be used to iron or steam drapes or curtains.
  • any garment e.g., slacks, shirt, skirt, etc.
  • other article of fabric can be ironed or pressed using the vertical ironing board.
