Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a garment press for pressing garments such as pants for general household use.

Structure of a conventional example and its problems Conventional clothes presses generally have a press body 3 with a built-in heater attached to a base 1 having a cushion via a hinge 2 so as to be openable and closable, as shown in Figure 1. When pressing 1, for example, pants 4, the press is set in the longitudinal direction, so the entire press becomes large and heavy.

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 2, when pressing trousers, etc., products have been developed that can be made into a smaller size by folding the trousers twice and pressing them. However, in this embodiment, there is a problem that the folded part of the pants 4 that comes into contact with the middle plate 5 where the heater is located is not pressed, resulting in local wrinkles remaining or insufficient pressing.

OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION The present invention solves these conventional problems and provides a small-sized garment press that can cleanly press the entire garment.

Structure of the Invention The clothes press of the present invention is provided on a heater, and a metal plate made of an elastic piece having a curved surface is provided at a position facing the clothes hanger holding member, and the clothes press is folded in two on the clothes weight holding member. The elastic piece and the curved surface part are designed to apply pressure to the folded part, which also improves storability and ease of use. Also from this point of view, the press body is characterized in that it is fixed to a pillar, wall, etc. by another fixing means.

DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In FIGS. 3 to 11, reference numeral 6 denotes a press body with a built-in heater 7, and this press body 6 is supported by a support part 1o of a rod-shaped hanger 9 having a stopper 8 on one side of its upper end and a spring 11. A hanger receiver 12 is built in, and a hanger locking means having a guide groove 13, an inclined part 14 and a cutout part 15 of the hanger 9 is provided on the other side of the upper end. Further, on the side of the press body, there is a locking receiver 19 for locking a locking pawl 18 provided on a lid body 17 which is pivotally connected via a hinge 16 so as to be openable and closable, and a heater is provided at the top. Power switch to OACO-26x5O,
o(2) A hole 23 is formed in which the press body is fixed to a pillar or the like with a screw 22 or the like, or is detachably fixed with a hook or the like (not shown). It is what was done.

As shown in FIG. 5, the hanger 9 is equipped with a transparent hard press sheet 24 having an area approximately the same as the press surface and having one end formed into a cylindrical portion 24', which enhances the press effect. In other words, if you don't have this press sheet, when you fold up your pants and press them, the narrow hem will be pressed against the torso, leaving marks 4// as shown in Figure 13. The pressing force is dispersed by the action of , and the presence of a hard press sheet in the center is also effective in suppressing the main force and creating creases. One end of the folded hanger 9 is bent into a U-shape, and serves as a grip portion 9' when hanging an object to be pressed. Reference numeral 25 denotes a metal plate consisting of an elastic piece 25'', which is provided on the heater of the press body and has a curved surface 26' at a position facing the hanger so as to come into contact with a part of the hanger to be pressed; This is a heater cover that wraps around a metal plate.

Reference numeral 27 is a soft cushion provided on the lid, and a recess 27' is formed so that the hanger comes into contact with a part of the object to be pressed. 28 is a cushion cover.

In the above configuration, the operation of the embodiment will be described. As shown in FIG. 5, the object to be pressed 4 is folded in half and hung on the hanger 9, and as shown in FIG.
Insert the tip end 9'' of the
The stopper 8 slides along the slope 14, stops at the wall 15' of the notch 15, and is locked to the press body, thereby restricting the back and forth movement of the hanger 9. At this time, since the hanger 9 is guided by the guide groove 13, the upper and lower parts are prevented from shaking even after being locked.

Next, in this state, move the body of the pants upwards on the hanger 9.
You can check the set condition of the hem by looking through the press sheet by lightly lifting it up so that it rotates using the press sheet as a fulcrum.If you find any slack, etc., hold the hem with both hands and pull it downward. You can also pull the torso in the same way.

After that, close the lid, fit the locking claw 18 into the locking receiver 19, and turn on the power switch to start pressing. still,
At this time, the curved part 25' made of a metal plate with good thermal conductivity and the folded part of the pants suspended on the curved part 24' of the press sheet 24 are pressed against each other as shown in FIG. ′ is also pressed, so the folded portion can also be finished reliably.

In the above embodiments, the metal plate made of an elastic piece having a curved surface part covers the entire surface of the heater, but it may also cover only a partial part of the heater as shown in FIG. 12. In short, any material may be used as long as it is made of a metal plate or the like with good thermal conductivity and utilizes its elasticity so as to come into contact with and surround the article to be pressed that is hung on a garment holding member such as the hanger 9.

Further, in the conventional type in which the object to be pressed is folded back onto the middle plate where the heater is located, the heaters are also installed in series.

Effects of the Invention As is clear from the embodiments described above, the clothes press of the present invention is provided with a metal plate made of an elastic piece having a curved surface at a position facing the clothes holding member, thereby folding clothes such as pants. It is also possible to apply pressure to certain parts of the garment, giving a perfect finish to the entire garment.

Furthermore, since it is small and light and does not take up much space, it can be installed anywhere in a small private room.
