PRESSING MACHINE.
Application filed April 8,
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, SAM FRIEDMAN, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Atlanta, in the county of Fulton and State of Georgia, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Pressmg Machines, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to an improvement in pressing machines designed partlcularly for use in pressing clothing into proper shape following the cleaning of the same.
The main object of the invention is to construct an efficient presser in which the labor incident to keeping up steam, and the use of the usual boiler and gas heating means is entirely avoided, and to lace within controlof the operator a simp e and conveniently operated means for generating the steam within the presser proper, and only in the quantity necessary for the particular operation.
Ordinarily in steam pressing machines, the goods, following the action of the presser are damp, and require a subsequent drying operation. The resent machine is deslgned to practically ry the clothes dur ng the pressing operation, so that on leaving the presser the clothes are set inthelr pressed form, and are practically dry and cool.
In the drawing -Fig. 1 is a perspective View of the improved machine.
' Fig. 2 is a bottom plan view of the upper pressing member, the cover portion thereof being removed, and the metallic plate partly broken away. I
Fig. 3 is a top plan view of the bottom pressing plate, partly broken out.
Fig. 4 is a section on line 44 of Fig. 2.
Fig. 5 is a section on line 55 of Fig. 3.
Fig. 6 is a perspective detail showing slightly different forms of pressing members.
The improved pressing machine is here shown as comprising a table 1, supported on legs 2. -The pressing elements comprise a lower pressing member 3, and an upper pressing member 4.. These members are shown, except in Fig. 6', as adapted for pressing coats and similar fiat articles,
though it is to be understod that these pressing members can have any approprlate formed meeting surfaces for the pressing of special articles.
1920. Serial No. 372,234.
hollow upper member 4, and t ese pipes are adapted to be supplied with water through a pipe section 8 leading through one side wall of the member, and beyond said side wall provided with a cut-off 9. The termi- '-nal of the pipe section 8 is adapted to receive a flexible hose or other conduit as 10 of water supply, as an ordinary faucet. The pipes 7 are formed throughout with a series of minute perforations. 11, sothat water admitted to said pipes under thecon- *Which may in turn be connected to a source trol of the cut-off 9 will be discharged,
through such perforations 11. The pipes 7 are preferably encircled by resistance coils 12, fed from a suitable source, as an ordinary incandescent light socket through wires 13 controlled by a switch 14 at the edge of the member. The heat thus developed is designed to be sufiicient to convert the minute streams or drops of water passing through the perforations in the pipes 7 into steam, so that the interior of the member 4 is, when in use filled. with steam having an outlet through the perforations 6 of the plate 5.
The lower member 3 is also hollow, the upper metallic plate 15 of such member having perforations 16 corresponding to the perforations 6 in the plate 5 of the upper member. The interior space of this member is in communication through a pipe-17 with a suction device 18 located on the table 1 18 is preferably electrically operated, being for example in a parallel connection from the conductors 13. The switch for the suction operating connection, indicated at 19 is controlled by a foot lever 20 arranged at the lower end of a pedestal-21 depending centrally from the table 1.
The pressing members 3 and 4 are on their meeting faces, that is the lower face of the upper member and the upper face of the lower member preferably covered with appropriate material, as 22, which may be cloth or the like and which is designed to directly engage the articles tobe pressed. The lower member is supported on an upright 23 rising'from the table 1, and the upor convenient thereto. The suction device per member has hinged connection at 24 with the lower member, this hinged connection being preferably of the spring opening type so that the members are normally in opened or spaced relation. An operating pedal through connections usual inthis type of apparatus serves under pressure to force the members together into pressing contact.
In Figure 6, there is shown a slightly modified form of pressing members, in that the upper and lower members are flat. These pressing members are more readily adapted forpants and the like.
In use the operator, having applied the goods on the lower pressing member in smooth relation forces the upper member down by pressure upon the pedal 25 acting a through suitable connections not necessary to show. The necessary pressure is maintained preferably by the operator standing on this pedal. ,The cut-oif 9 is opened to allow water to enter the pipes 7, and the current turned on through manipulation of the switch 14. Steam is thus generated and the clothes subjected to such steaming during the pressing operation. Having maintained the pressure and steam application a sufiicient period of time to complete the pressing of the particular. article, the pedal 20 is operated setting the suction apparatus at work. At the same time the switch 14 is opened, and the cut-off 9 operated to cut The suction apparatus will u draw steam through the goods and out a discharge, tending to dry and cool the article buck of a clothes pressing machine, of
heating means therefor comprising an inlet pipe section mounted in one end wall of the buck, a plurality of pipes connected with i and independently supplied with water through said section, said ipes relatively diverging from each other rom their connection with the inlet section and being in substantially the same horizontal plane, the
lower portion of each pipe having spaced perforations, an electrical heating coil arranged about each p-ipe from end to end, and
means for energizing said coils, whereby to convert the water in each pipe into steam and permit the escape of thesteam through such perforations.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.
SAM FRIEDMAN.
