Wall Mounted Ironing Board Cabinet

A wall mounted ironing board comprising:

• an orthogonal cabinet having top, bottom, side and back walls, said side walls having mirror-image channels in lower inside surfaces thereof, each said channel having a vertical passage spaced from said back wall and having a vertical array of lateral passages, each of said lateral passages extending forwardly and upwardly from its respective one of said vertical passages;
• a door covering an open front of, and attached by two-way sliders to, said cabinet, said sliders permitting said door to slide into and out of any of “cabinet-opened-to-the-right,” “cabinet-closed” and “cabinet-opened-to-the-left” conditions;
• an ironing board having pivot pins aligned on a common axis, each said pin protruding laterally from its respective side of a rear end of said ironing board for sliding engagement in said channels;
• and
• a linkage connected at one end thereof to said cabinet and at another end thereof to an underside of said ironing board;
• whereby, when said ironing board is rotated about said axis of said pins to a vertical “storage” orientation in said cabinet, said door can slide out of said “cabinet-opened-to-the-right” and “cabinet-opened-to-the-left” conditions into said “cabinet-closed” condition and, when said door is slid into one of said “cabinet-opened-to-the-right” and “cabinet-opened-to-the-left” conditions, said ironing board can rotate about said axis of said pins into a horizontal “use” orientation, an elevation of said board being a level of that pair of said opposed lateral passages of said cabinet into which said pins are slid, said linkage being operable to maintain and release said board in and from said horizontal “use” orientation.
