An ironing board assembly for use with a door. The assembly includes an elongated ironing board and an ironing board support. An upper end of the ironing board support is attached to the top of the door so that the ironing board support extends along and closely adjacent one side of the door. One end of the ironing board is attachable to a lower end of the ironing board support so that the ironing board is movable between a first position in which the ironing board extends horizontally outwardly from the door and a second position in which the ironing board extends vertically and closely adjacent the side of the door and so that a top of the ironing board faces outwardly from the door. A first latch locks the ironing board in its first position while, similarly, a second latch locks the ironing board in its second position.

We claim: 1. An ironing board assembly for use with a door comprising: an elongated ironing board, an ironing board support having an upper end adapted to be attached to a top of the door so that said ironing board support extends along and closely adjacent one side of the door, means for attaching one end of said ironing board to a lower end of said ironing board support so that said ironing board is movable between a first position in which said ironing board extends horizontally outwardly from the door and a second position in which said ironing board extends vertically and closely adjacent said ironing board support and so that a top of the ironing board faces outwardly from the door, a first latch for locking said ironing board in said first position, a second latch for locking said ironing board in said second position, and a leg pivotally attached to a bottom of said ironing board adjacent a second end of said ironing board, said leg being pivotal between an operable position and a storage position, wherein with said leg in said storage position, said leg is sandwiched between said ironing board and the door so that said ironing board overlies and covers said leg. 2. The invention as defined in claim 1 and comprising means for adjusting the length of said leg. 3. The invention as defined in claim 2 wherein leg comprises a pair of telescopically slidable tubes and wherein said adjusting means comprises a clamp for locking said tubes in an adjusted position. 4. The invention as defined in claim 3 wherein said clamp comprises a cam clamp. 5. The invention as defined in claim 1 wherein said ironing board support comprises a pair of spaced apart elongated rails, each rail having a U shaped bracket attached to its upper end, said U shaped brackets dimensioned to fit over the top of the door. 6. The invention as defined in claim 5 wherein each U shaped bracket includes at least one resilient leg. 7. The invention as defined in claim 5 wherein each rail comprises a pair of telescoping tubes, at least one tube in each rail having a plurality of longitudinally spaced holes which register with a hole in the other of said tube at different longitudinally adjusted positions, a lock pin insertable through registering holes in said tubes at an adjusted position to thereby lock said tubes together at the adjusted position to thereby vary the length of said rails. 8. The invention as defined in claim 1 and comprising a pin extending laterally outwardly from said one end of said ironing board so that said pins are axially aligned, each pin being slidably received in a vertically extending slot in said ironing board support so that said pins from one end of said slot to the other end of said slot as said ironing board is pivoted from said first and to said second position. 9. The invention as defined in claim 8 and comprising a slide block slidably mounted in each said slot, each slide block having a recess which receives one of said pins. 10. The invention as defined in claim 9 and comprising a compression spring disposed around each pin. 11. The invention as defined in claim 8 wherein said first latch engages said pin when said ironing board is in said first position and said second latch engages said pin when said ironing board is in said second position. 12. The invention as defined in claim 11 wherein said first and second latches each comprise a spring lever having a portion protruding into said slot. 13. The invention as defined in claim 1 and comprising a storage bin mounted to said ironing board support. 14. The invention as defined in claim 1 comprising a storage bin removably mounted to said ironing board support. 15. The invention as defined in claim 3 wherein said clamp comprises a twist lock. 16. An ironing board assembly for use with a door comprising an elongated ironing board, an ironing board support having an upper end adapted to be attached to a top of the door so that said ironing board support extends along and closely adjacent one side of the door, means for attaching one end of said ironing board to a lower end of said ironing board support so that said ironing board is movable between a first position in which said ironing board extends horizontally outwardly from the door and a second position in which said ironing board extends vertically and closely adjacent said ironing board support and so that a top of the ironing board faces outwardly from the door, a first latch for locking said ironing board in said first position, and a second latch for locking said ironing board in said second position, wherein each rail comprises a pair of telescoping tubes, at least one tube in each rail having a plurality of longitudinally spaced holes which register with a hole in the other of said tube at different longitudinally adjusted positions, a lock pin insertable through registering holes in said tubes at an adjusted position to thereby lock said tubes together at the adjusted position to thereby vary the length of said rails. 17. An ironing board assembly for use with a door comprising: an elongated ironing board, an ironing board support having an upper end adapted to be attached to a top of the door so that said ironing board support extends along and closely adjacent one side of the door, means for attaching one end of said ironing board to a lower end of said ironing board support so that said ironing board is movable between a first position in which said ironing board extends horizontally outwardly from the door and a second position in which said ironing board extends vertically and closely adjacent said ironing board support and so that a top of the ironing board faces outwardly from the door, a first latch for locking said ironing board in said first position, a second latch for locking said ironing board in said second position, a pin extending laterally outwardly from said one end of said ironing board so that said pins are axially aligned, each pin being slidably received in a vertically extending slot in said ironing board support so that said pins from one end of said slot to the other end of said slot as said ironing board is pivoted from said first and to said second position, and a slide block slidably mounted in each said slot, each slide block having a recess which receives one of said pins. 18. The invention as defined in claim 17 and comprising a compression spring disposed around each pin. 19. An ironing board assembly for use with a door comprising an elongated ironing board, an ironing board support having an upper end adapted to be attached to a top of the door so that said ironing board support extends along and closely adjacent one side of the door, means for attaching one end of said ironing board to a lower end of said ironing board support so that said ironing board is movable between a first position in which said ironing board extends horizontally outwardly from the door and a second position in which said ironing board extends vertically and closely adjacent said ironing board support and so that a top of the ironing board faces outwardly from the door, a first latch for locking said ironing board in said first position, a second latch for locking said ironing board in said second position, a pin extending laterally outwardly from said one end of said ironing board so that said pins are axially aligned, each pin being slidably received in a vertically extending slot in said ironing board support so that said pins from one end of said slot to the other end of said slot as said ironing board is pivoted from said first and to said second position, and wherein said first latch engages said pin when said ironing board is in said first position and said second latch engages said pin when said ironing board is in said second position. 20. The invention as defined in claim 19 wherein said first and second latches each comprise a spring lever having a portion protruding into said slot.
