Definitions

  • This invention relates to pressing machines, and particularly to the work supports therefor.
  • the invention is particular- 1y adaptable for use in pressing sweaters,
  • underwear or other knitted woolen fabrics or articles but is capable of use with any desired'materials or articles.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide suitable means which enables sweatconveniently, but nevertheless without any liability of' producing discolorationmr an imprint of the pressing canvas upon the article.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide suitable means for this purpose which is of simple form and can be readily applied to any form of pressing machine, and.
  • articles to be pressed are laid 1n turn upon which in certain types of machine assists in holding the articles to be pressed in the proper shape and form.
  • Fig. 3 is a cross section on the line 3-3, Fig. 2 the cover layer being shown in elevated'positions
  • Fig. 4 is a plan view of the work supporting member of another form of pressing machine
  • Fig. 5 is a cross section, on the line 5)--5, Fig. 4,'and illustrating the two cO-operating pressing members with the cover layer for the garment in elevated po-
  • the invention may be applied with equal facility to various types of, pressing machines. 'F or purposes of illustration, and not in any sense as limiting the invention, Figs. 1 to 3 inclusive show the invention applied to what 'is known as an underwear press. This press, as to most of its features, is of the same form shown in the prior patent to Daniel M.
  • the machine comprises a suitable frame 1, having an upper pressing member or head 2 suitably heated, such as by steam introduced to its inner cavity, and which headco-operates withapadded lower pressing memberor bed 3.
  • Thebed may also be heated in a manner. similar to the head. It is located below and in registry with the head,.and the'work to be pressed is subjected to pressure between said members by relative movement thereof.
  • One of said members 2 and 3, such as the bed 3, is vertically movable relative to the other, the operating mechanism therefor consisting of toggle members 4 connected to a nut 5 actuated by the rotating movement of a'screw 6 operated b the driving gear 7.
  • vas-layer 12 comes next above the of the lower pressing member 3.
  • each work support of which several ma be used witheach machine, is provided wit a cover
  • This member is attached to the work support in such a manner that the articles to be pressed can be readily laid beneath the cover member and upon the canvas layer 12 and the cover member laid down in position above the articles.
  • This effect. can be obtained in any suitable manner, for example, by securing one edge of the cover member to the canvas layer 12 by stitching or by the buttons or button fasteners 14 spaced at intervals along said edge.
  • the securement of the cover memberto the canvas layer 12 along this edge is preferably permanent but may be detachable if desired.
  • the cover member may be connected to the canvas layer 12, such as by snap fasteners 15, so
  • the cover layer 13 may be 0 any suitable construction for the purpose; its essential characteristic being the provision of a layer 1 of woolen fabric which will contact directly with the knitted articles to be pressed.
  • cover layer for example maybe made entirely 'of woolen fabric, but for strength and durability is shown in the drawings as consisting of a bod layer 16 of canvas to the under surface 0 which is secured, as-by the stitching 17, a layer 18 of woolen fabric.
  • the cover member is loosened by unfastening the snap fasteners 15 and is turned back to en able the articles to be pressed to be properly arranged on the canvas layer 12.
  • the cover is then turned down and refastened at the fasteners 15.
  • the work support is then moved to position between the pressing members and pressure is applied thereto. While being moved laterally into position between the bed and head the cover member of the are applied to the work work support holds down the folded garments and prevents them from becoming disarranged, -1t being unnecessary to insert the hands near the heated head to adjust disarranged articles.
  • the articles or the'upper and lower layers of the work'support may be moistened, either by spraying water thereon, or by applying steam thereto, or the articles may be pressed without special moistening as they usually absorb enough moisture from the surrounding atmosphere for pressing purposes. come together the article't'o be pressed is subjected below to the action of the yielding bed and the layer of canvas, while above-itis subjected to the pressure of a heated metal surface through a layer or layers of canvas and the woolen layer 18. As a consequence there is no liability to produce an imprint of thefabric of the canvas upon the garment or to produce discoloration or running of the colors therein.
  • Figs. 4 and 5 illustrate the invention applied to what is known as a garment press
  • the pressing members which comprises a hollow heated head 20 which co-operates with a hollow heated bed 21, pressure upon 3 an article between said members being produced by relative movement thereof.
  • the upper member may have a plain metal lower surface or, if desired, may be covered with a layer of canvas 22, while the lower member is provided with a padded surface 23 be pressed is laid.
  • a cover member 24 which may be suitably secured to said edge such as by buttons, hooks or the hke,
  • This cover member may be similar to the one before described and consist of an upper canvas layer 25 to which a wool layer 26 is secured,
  • This press is used by placing the garment upon the bed and covering-it with the cover member 24 and then subjecting .the article to pressure between the head'and'bed.
  • the garment is moistened as before either with water or-steam applied in any desired manner, the effect being to press the article wlthout the production-of an imprint of the canvas or discoloration or running of the color in the article.
