Ironing board

Abstract

The ironing board includes an underframe, a table frame, fitted to the underframe and at least broadly flat and having a table rim which is formed from an edge profile, and an ironing board table having an essentially flat top surface, which ironing board table, close to the periphery, is mounted on supporting portions of the table rim, At the periphery the ironing board table is held with a clearance between stop portions of the table rim, which delimit a displacement of the ironing board table in a direction parallel to the top surface thereof. The total clearance (2s) parallel to the top surface of the ironing board table has an order of magnitude of at most 4-5 mm. The edge profile of the table rim can include a part in the form of a horizontal U having two horizontal arms and a vertical connecting part between the two arms, that the supporting portions of the table rim are formed by a first horizontal arm of the U, that the stop portions of the table rim are formed by the connecting part between the arms of the U, and that the second horizontal arm of the U extends over the periphery of the ironing board table, such that the periphery of the ironing board table, in a direction perpendicular to the top surface, is encased in the edge profile essentially with no or only minor clearance (t).
