Description

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a shirt press machine for press-finishing shirts such as shirts and work clothes.

[Conventional technology]

In order to cope with a change in shirt size, a conventional shirt press machine is equipped with inflatable and inflatable air bags 3 and 3 on both sides of a body stand 1 as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. 1
After the air bags 3 and 3 are inflated, the shirt A covered with the above is subjected to press finishing by pressing the front and rear surfaces thereof with a pair of hot plates 7 and 7 '.

In this pressing work, the expansion of the air bags 3, 3 causes the front plate of the shirt A to be wide open and the hot plate 7,
When 7'is pressed, the shirt is pressed in a collapsed shape, resulting in a very bad finish.

For this reason, the conventional body stand 1 is provided with a front retainer 5 for fixing the lower portion of the front body so that the front body of the shirt does not open too much.

A T-shaped leaf spring as shown in the figure is usually used for this kind of front presser 5, and the lower end of the leaf spring is fixed to the lower part of the body stand 1 and the upper end thereof has a spring force. Press the shirt on the bodice to fix the front body.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] By the way, the conventional front presser tool 5 uses a leaf spring material having a large plate thickness in order to obtain a strong pressing force for the purpose of strongly fixing the shirt so as not to move. . Therefore, as shown in FIG. 7, when the hot plate 7 ′ is pressed onto the body stand 1 and pressed, the pressing member 6 of the front presser tool 5 is deeply embedded in the pad material of the body stand 1. Therefore, the shirt is strongly bent at the step portion 10 generated at the corner portion of the pressing member 6, and there is a problem that a strong pressure-bonding mark remains on the shirt after being pressed.

On the other hand, if the plate thickness of the front presser tool 5 is reduced in order to reduce the crimping marks, the bending of the shirt is reduced and the crimping marks are reduced, but on the other hand, the pressing force of the shirt is reduced and It causes a problem that it cannot perform its function.

The present invention has been made in view of the problems in the above-described front presser tool, and an object of the present invention is to provide a shirt press machine that has sufficient strength to hold a sufficient presser force and can reduce the number of pressure marks on the shirt. I am trying.

[Means for solving problems]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention bends the presser member of the front presser tool so that it is convex toward the front surface of the vertical body and that the thickness decreases from the center of the convex cross section toward both ends. It was a plate.

[Action]

In general, a plate material bent in the pressing direction has a higher deformation strength than a flat plate material because the bent portion acts like a rib. Therefore, the bent plate has a strong strength even with a thin plate thickness and can withstand a sufficient pressing force.

In addition, by making the pressing surface that presses the shirt on the body stand convex and having a curved surface that decreases in thickness from the center of the convex cross section to both ends, contact with the shirt becomes gentle and a sharp bend as shown in FIG. Since there is no stepped portion that acts, it is possible to reduce the pressure marks left on the shirt.

〔Example〕

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the body stand 1 includes a body stand body 2 and a pair of air bags 3 and 3 attached to both sides of the body body 2. The inside is a passage of hot air to the air bags 3 and 3. It is mounted upright on the upper portion of the support frame 4.

A pair of heat plates 7 and 7'are arranged on the front and rear sides of the body stand 1 so as to face the front and rear surfaces thereof. To be done.

Further, a lower end of a front pressing member 5 made of a T-shaped plate spring is fixed to the front surface of the support frame 4. The above-mentioned presser foot 5
Is provided with a pressing member 6 at its upper end, which is normally pressed against the front surface 2a of the body 2 by the spring force of the front pressing member 5 itself as shown in FIG.

As shown in FIG. 3, the pressing member 6 is formed by a plate that is bent in an inverted V shape from substantially the center toward the front surface 2a of the body. The pressing member 6 has a contact portion 9 with a hot plate 7 '. Is chamfered along the crimping surface of the hot plate 7 '. The chamfering process described above prevents damage to the pressure surface of the hot plate 7'and loosens the shape of the abutting portion between the hot plate 7'and the pressing member 6 to prevent a step having a sharp corner as shown in FIG. effective.

This embodiment is constructed as described above, and the operation will be described below.

In the pressing work, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the shirt A is put on the body stand 1, and the front pressing tool 5 is manually attached to the body stand body 2.
While keeping away from, the lower part of the front body of the shirt A is sandwiched between the body stand body 2 and the front pressing tool 5 to fix the shirt A. Then, the hot plates 7 and 7'are crimped to the body stand 1 and pressed. At the time of this press working, as shown in FIG. 4, the pressing member 6 is pressed by the hot plate 7'and enters into the pad material of the upright body 2 to press the shirt.

In this case, the pressing force applied to the pressing member 6 acts in the direction toward the center along each dogleg-shaped side, and the force is received by the hot plate 7 ′ through the contact portion 9, so that the pressing member 6 is pressed.
Does not deform from the center.

Further, the contact portion between the pressing member 6 and the shirt A is in a state of having a large curvature, and there is no stepped portion which causes a sharp bite as shown in FIG. 7, so that a strong crimping mark remains on the shirt. Instead, the shirt with the impression marks is finished with a nearly uniform surface.

FIG. 5 shows another embodiment, in which the pressing member 6 is
It is formed of a plate that is bent in an arc shape toward the front surface of the body.

Even if the pressing member 6 is a shaft member 6'having a convex curved surface on the body front surface 2a side as shown in FIG. 6, there is an effect of remarkably reducing the pressure marks on the shirt. But in this case
Since the weight of the pressing member 6 becomes heavy, in order to firmly fix the shirt to the body stand 1 to the same degree, the plate thickness of the support spring 5a of the front pressing member 5 supporting the pressing member 6'must be increased. However, there is a drawback that the cost becomes high. That is, by forming the pressing member 6 with a bent plate as in the present invention, it is possible to maintain the strength even with a thin plate thickness and prevent the cost from increasing.

〔The invention's effect〕

As described above, the present invention provides a pressing member for a front presser,
Since the plate is bent toward the front of the body and bent so that the thickness decreases from the center of the convex section toward both ends, even if the plate is thin, the pressing force on the shirt can be reduced. Without, sufficient strength can be maintained. In addition, since the contact portion between the pressure plate of the hot plate and the pressing member is a gradual surface, the step that bends the shirt does not occur, so that the shirt is not strongly bent by the pressing member and a finished shirt is obtained. You can get a uniform and beautiful iron finish without leaving any pressure marks.
