Compact, collapsible ironing apparatus is disclosed having a base (23, 222) providing supportive disposition upon a supporting surface for carrying an ironing board (32, 202) and for supporting a hand iron (1, 201) above the ironing surface of the ironing board. A first upright member (21, 223) extends upwardly from the base for carrying at its upper end the ironing board. A second upright member (20, 221) extends upwardly from the base and an iron support linkage (15, 17, 211) is swingably interconnected at one end to the upper end of this second upright member. The linkage comprises articulated arms (15, 17, 215, 216) which are extendable to positions over the ironing surface. An iron securement unit (9, 209) pivotally interconnects the distal end of the support linkage with the iron for permitting movement of the iron between first and second orientations respectively in and out of contact with the ironing surface. In one embodiment, the ironing board (202) is swingably mounted and the base includes folding leg members (229, 229'), movable between storage and use positions conjointly with swinging movement of the ironing board between its respective storage and use positions. <IMAGE> |
