However, in the above-mentioned conventional shirt finishing machine, the crimping surfaces of the ironing boards 4 and 5 are simply provided with pad materials on the surface of the arc-shaped base corresponding to the shape of the collar or cuff. When the wet shirt after washing is pressed between the ironing boards 4 and 5 and the hot plate 6, moisture evaporated from the shirt is trapped in the pad material of the ironing boards 4 and 5, The material becomes wet. However, once the pad material becomes wet as described above, there is no place for escape of moisture evaporating from the shirt, so that the time required for drying becomes longer.

Further, since the collar portion and the cuff portion of the shirt are turned on each of the supports 2 and 3 while being simply placed on the surfaces of the ironing boards 4 and 5, the shirt is positioned by centrifugal force and wind pressure generated at the time of turning. It may shift and the set state may be lost. For this reason, it is necessary to turn each of the supports 2 and 3 at a low speed so that the set state of the shirt does not collapse, and there is a problem that work efficiency is poor.

Therefore, the present invention provides a shirt finishing machine which can shorten the drying time of the shirt without moistening the pad material, and furthermore, the turning speed of the iron supporter can be increased and the set state of the shirt can be reliably maintained. It is intended to be.

In addition, the inner space of each iron support board should be
A plurality of suction holes which are connected so as to communicate with the internal space and which communicate with the respective suction passages, are formed on the pressure-bonding surfaces of the respective ironing boards of the two support bases, and each passage opening / closing means which operates independently of the respective suction passages. This is the structure provided with.

[0008]

In the above structure, at the time of pressing, the suction passage of the iron support on the press side is opened, and the pressure-bonded surface of each ironing board is suctioned. As a result, the moisture evaporated from the shirt is forcibly sucked into the suction passage, and the pad material is no longer wet.

[0009] When the iron supporters are turned, the suction passages of both support bases are opened, and the shirts are sucked on the crimping surfaces of the ironing boards. As a result, the set shirt is attracted to the ironing board, and the shirt does not shift even if the turning speed is increased.
