  • a garment pressing apparatus which comprises a plurality of pressing means which are adapted to press a large portion of a jacket while the same is mounted on a body shaped buck.
  • a first pressing head which is adapted to press one half of the front portion of the jacket; a second pressing head adapted to press one half of the back portion of a jacket; a side pressing head adapted to press one side of a jacket and serve as a buck for a sleeve pressing head for pressing the sleeve of the jacket.
  • a novel combined pressing head and buck for use in pressing the side and sleeves of a jacket.
  • the apparatus includes a plurality of pressing heads and bucks which may be of a conventional structure and/or may employ modification discussed herein.
  • pressing head is generally employed to designate that portion of the pressing apparatus which is movable into and out of a pressing relationship with the jacket while the term “buck” is used in general terms to describe a pressing head which is stationary.
  • buck is used in general terms to describe a pressing head which is stationary.
  • certain parts of the apparatus such as the body shaped buck may in one instance function as a buck and in a further instance as a pressing head.
  • the pressing heads and bucks may be of a conventional structure and will thus include an outer wall surrounding an interior cavity, the outer wall being perforated or apertured and the interior cavity having air, steam and vacuum supplies associated therewith.
  • air, vacuum and steam is conventional in the art and need not be described in any detail herein. It suffices to say that various techniques are known to those skilled in the art for generating steam, vacuum and pressurized air.
  • the apparatus preferably-includes a body shaped buck upon which the jacket to be pressed is mounted.
  • the body shaped buck is adapted to conform to the configuration of one half of the jacket which is pressed at a single operating station.
  • the pressing heads will include one for pressing the front half of the jacket, one for pressing the back half of the jacket, and one for pressing the shoulder area.
  • a lapel and collar pressing head may also be included if so desired although this particular operation may be reserved for a separate unit in a subsequent operation.
  • the apparatus will also include a side pressing head which also functions as a buck for the sleeve pressing operation in conjunction with a sleeve pressing head. Thus, one half of the jacket may be pressing in a single operation.
  • the body shaped buck is preferably formed of a plurality of sections such that should a style change require the same, one section can conveniently be replaced while the remaining sections stay the same.
  • the body shaped buck be formed of three sections - a front, back and shoulder section. Each section is preferably supplied with its own steam, vacuum and air connections.
  • the buck is provided with a fabric covering (as are the pressing heads).
  • the body shaped buck is preferably mounted in a manner such that it is rotatable through at least 90° for reasons which will become apparent hereinafter. Again, the mounting of the buck in such a fashion can be achieved in many ways by those knowledgeable in the art.
  • the buck is preferably structured so as to be movable outwardly in a manner such as to press the underarm area of a jacket in cooperation with a fixed buck as will be described in greater detail hereinbelow.
  • the body may be pivoted are. hinged such that only a portion is movable outwardly or in the alternative, the entire body may be movable.
  • the front and back pressing heads are of a conventional structure and are adapted to press the respective portions bf a jacket.
  • the side pressing head is adapted to press the area between the areas pressed by the front and back pressing heads. While pressing the side of the jacket, the exteriorly facing surface of the side pressing head is adapted to serve as a buck for the pressing of the sleeve.
  • a sleeve buck which has a recess therein of a tapered arcuate cross-sectional configuration.
  • the recess as aforementioned, is arcuate in cross-section and increases in cross-sectional area from the portion adapted to receive the bottom of a sleeve to the upper portion thereof.
  • the recess is adapted to receive the sleeve seam and in combination with the pressing operations described hereinbefore and following, a pressing of the seam can be obtained.
  • the bottom of the sleeve of the jacket is sealed or closed off by suitable means (discussed hereinbelow) and a pressurized gaseous material (steam, air or a combination thereof) is blown into the sleeve to expand the same.
  • a pressurized gaseous material steam, air or a combination thereof
  • a sleeve pressing head is then brought into contact one or more times with the expanded sleeve to remove any wrinkles and press the sleeve.
  • the means of sealing the sleeves at the bottom open end thereof may include several different means including a clip arrangement, or in the alternative, a special sleeve pressing head as will be discussed later.
  • the individual pressing heads/bucks may be operated in a known manner insofar as the use of vacuum to retain the garment thereon, the steaming of the garment and the use of air and/or vacuum. These are conventional steps employed by many such apparatuses.
  • the apparatus includes one half of an upper torso shaped body form buck 10 mounted in a manner discussed hereinbelow on a central upright mounting member 12.
  • buck 10 is composed of a plurality of parts (not shown); in the preferred embodiment, form will consist of three or more parts comprising the front, back and shoulder parts to easily accommodate replacement of any one part.
  • each of the buck parts may be of substantially conventional structure as is known in this art.
  • each part would include an inner chamber to which steam, air and vacuum connections may be made.
  • the walls of the parts are apertured to permit escape of the steam'or air and to permit the applying of a vacuum.
  • the apparatus includes a plurality of pressing heads and/or bucks; specifically, there is provided a shoulder pressing head 14, a back pressing head 16, a'front pressing head 18, a combined side pressing head and sleeve buck 20 and a sleeve pressing head 22.
  • Each of the aforementioned pressing heads or bucks is of a known structure; thus, there is provided an interior chamber surrounded by a perforated or apertured body. Suitable steam, air and vacuum connections are provided. As is conventional, a fabric covering maybe provided for the pressing heads or bucks.
  • mounting member 12 upon which body buck 10 is mounted is rotatable through 90° such that the garment upon being mounted on form 10 in the loading position shown in Fig. 1, can be rotated through 90° to the pressing positions of Figs. 2 through 4.
  • conventional means such as a piston assembly generally designated by reference numeral 24 may be employed for rotating body form 10 from the loading to a pressing position.
  • shoulder pressing head 14 is mounted on a suitable piston assembly 26 and is provided with vacuum, air and steam connections (not shown).
  • steam generation may be augmented by the use of heated copper tubing within the pressing head or buck as the case may be.
  • Front pressing head 18 is also movable into and out of a pressing relationship with the front of the jacket through mounting on a rod 28 of piston 30. The pressing position is illustrated in Fig.4.
  • a similar arrangement is provided for back pressing head 16 by means of a piston assembly 32.
  • a combined side pressing head and sleeve buck 20 mounted on arm 34 is movable in a horizontal direction through piston assembly 36 and in a vertical direction by means of piston assembly 38 . Arm 34 is pivoted at point 40 as shown in Fig. 3.
  • suitable supply lines generally designated by reference numeral 42 are provided for steam, vacuum and air supplies.
  • Sleeve pressing head 22 has a pair of piston assemblies 44 and 46 associated therewith, the first piston assembly 44 being operative to move the upper portion of pressing head 22 into and out of the pressing relationship with the top portion of a sleeve of the garment and piston assembly 46 operative to move the lower portion of the pressing head 22 into and out of a pressing relationship with the lower part of the sleeve.
  • a jacket is mounted on body buck 10 when in the position illustrated in Fig. 1.
  • mounting member 12 is rotatably driven by piston assembly 24 through 90° to the position indicated in Fig. 2.
  • the armhole seam is pressed in a manner which will be discussed hereinbelow with respect to Figs. 19 through 22.
  • shoulder pressing head 14 and side pressing head 20 are actuated to bring them into pressing position for their respective portions of the jacket.
  • the operation of pressing head 14 is substantially conventional; the operation of pressing head 20 is shown in schematic form in Figs. 8 through 10 which will now be referred to.
  • piston assembly 38 is operated to move pressing head 20 upwardly by pivoting of arm 34 about pivot point 40 as shown in Figs. 3 and 8. Pressing head 20 is moved upwardly to the desired position between the sleeve and side of the garment to be pressed. Subsequently, piston assembly 36 is activated to move arm 34 and pressing head 20 inwardly, as shown in Fig. 9, against the side of the garment. Following this operation, and as shown in Fig. 10, piston assembly 38 may again be activated to move pressing head 20 slightly downwardly while in engagement with the side of the garment to be pressed. This downward movement tensions the side of the jacket to provide a good press. In practice, the inward movement and downward movement of pressing head 20 may be done in a single operation; it will be understood that the downward movement is very slight and is only enough to tension the jacket.
  • pressing head 20 while performing as a head for pressing'of the side of the garment also performs as a buck for the pressing of the sleeve.
  • pressing head 20 is divided into two sections interiorly; a first chamber providing steam, air and vacuum connections for the pressing head portion adapted to pre.ss the side of the jacket with a second chamber providing steam, air and vacuum connections for the buck portion against which the sleeve of the garment is placed.
  • the sleeve pressing operation may occur while pressing head 20 is in pressing engagement with the side of the jacket.
  • the lower end of pressing head 22 is actuated through piston assembly 46 to bring the lower portion of the head into contact with the lower portion of the sleeve to be pressed.
  • piston assembly 44 is activated to bring the upper portion of sleeve pressing head 22 into engagement with the upper portion of the sleeve of the garment.
  • this sequential operation of the sleeve pressing head provides several advantages.
  • this movement tends to tension the sleeve of the garment and thus enables one to provide a better press to the sleeve.
  • this sequential operation acts to seal off the bottom of the sleeve of the garment for reasons which will become apparent hereinafter.
  • Figure 14 illustrates, in plan view, the "buck" side of the pressing member 20 or in other words, the side adapted to receive the sleeve of the garment to be pressed.
  • the buck surface includes a tapered recess generally designated by reference numeral 70 and which recess is adapted to receive the seam of the sleeve to be pressed.
  • Recess 70 increases in dimensions upwardly and has an arc-shaped configuration as may be seen from the cross-sectional views thereof.
  • pressing member 20 may be provided with a clip member generally designated by reference numeral 72 adapted to hold the bottom portion of a sleeve which is to be pressed.
  • Clip member 72 is movable into and out of a sleeve retaining position by means of a cylinder 74 pivoted at point 76.
  • a cylinder 74 pivoted at point 76.
  • Clip member 72 will then be moved to the position shown in dotted lines in Fig. 14 to retain the end of the sleeve in a desired position.
  • sleeve pressing head 22 may then be operated in the manner discussed with respect to Figs.
  • a pressing method may be used whereby a gaseous material is blown through the sleeve to "inflate" the same.
  • This air blowing may be used in conjunction with the sealing of the end of the sleeve by clip member 72 and/or the use of special-pressing head 22.
  • the blowing of a gas forces the sleeve seam back into recess 70 and pressing head 22 may then be brought into an engagement with the sleeve to-press the same against the interior pressure. If desired, a plurality of operations of this nature may occur to press the sleeve of the garment.
  • the apparatus is provided with a pressing buck 80 which is secured by shaft 82 to mounting member 12.
  • the pressing member or buck 80 is spaced slightly from body form 10 and is sized such that when the jacket is placed in a pressing position, the underarm area of the sleeve fits between pressing member 80 and body member 10.
  • Body member 10 is pivotably mounted on supporting member 86 (secured to member 12) through pivot point 84. The upper portion of body 10 is thus movable outwardly for a slight distance on activation of piston assembly 88.
  • piston assembly 88 is activated as seen in Fig.
  • pressing member 80 may be provided with suitable air, steam and vacuum means.
  • the shape of pressing member 80 may conveniently be adapted to conform to the shape of the garment to be pressed; the illustration in the drawings is merely schematic for purposes of illustration.
  • the apparatus is substantially automated and the pressing operations may be.carried out in the desired sequence either through manual activation by the machine operator or in the alternative, by a programmed operation.
  • Suitable controls are provided as is conventional in the art - i. e. separate vacuum, air and steam controls along with pressure variation controls may be provided.
  • the operator may place the jacket to be pressed on the buck and activate a vacuum to retain the jacket in the desired position and subsequently, all operations are effected automatically. If desired, a collar and lapel pressing head may be added to the apparatus.
