Be itfkn'own th it I, Anciisr Liaiso a citizen of the United- States, and a resident of the "city ofDayton, inlthe county of Montgomery and,..State {of Ohio, have invented, .certain'new andsiuseful Improvements in Steam Pressing-Beds, of-which the followf 'reference'being had to" the'accompanying l drawing, jforimng 5 part of this specification.

Th .Qbject of my invention, is to 'provide a lpressing'bed for. ;garments in which dry stealnfma'y. be' 'Tpr ovidedfor steaming gar-f I -mentsr hy. means; of 'jcondensing j apparatus located-within the-pressing bed whereby the, -wa te r'of condensation'may'be removed-from f g tgm before-it is' injected through th armently fl Y I The i inventidni consists poi. that rnovel construetion and-'-'arrangement of parts to be hereinafter out "and claimed Ini'the drawin a -perspec tive' view {of the steaming bed -densing chamber, Fig. 5 is a' transverse section of the shoulder heating bed. Fig. 6 I 'is a bottom plan View of the circulating and- I condensing chamber of said shoulder heat-' ing'bed. I v

The steaming and heating beds are m'ounted on a suitable-table 1, with table top 2,

I "which carries the gooseneck support 3, upon which is mounted the steaming and heating bed 4,'comprising a hollow elongated box 5,

f in the top surface of which a series .of per- '45 r iprovide'd with-an inlet pipe 9 -and an outlet .forations-(i are formed, through which the steam is delivered 'tothe garments to be pressed. Supported on lugs 7 7, inside of' the box, is a closed circulating chamber- 8,

10, so that'a circulation of steam maybe continuously. kept-up throngh the circulating chamber to maintain the heat of the pressing bed. No steam escapes from this circulating chamber, and the purpose of this chamber is only to maintain the heat of the apparatus. During thehours of use 'of-the' apparatus, live steam will be continuously circulated through this chamber.

Formed integral with the bottom plate of particularly pointed p 'a nens r'iras'ancn, or narrow, oniro,

the' irculating chamber,-or suitablyseciired' I thereto and depending into the lower half-of; l

the box 5, is a pair ofcondensi'ng troughs 11,11, which run 'lengthwiseof the box, and

are separated-from'each other sufliciently to allow for the location of thesteam pipe 12' between the two "condensing troughs, andthis steam pipe is. closed at its end-13, and is provided with a series of perforations 14, through'which :the steam is projected between the. upper edge 15 'ofthe condensing troughs and the bottom of the, circulating} .ehamber. These condensingcharnbers are 'each provided with a shelf16, to :enlarge'the condensing surface; l Perforations 17; are.

prox ided in. the base of the, condensingm troughs at one end through which the-water ofcondensationcan be 'dischargedi-into .the:j

bottom of the box, whence it is carried away 7' i through-the opening 18 andywaste chamber, whenceit is projected through the Dry steam, after circulating through the f condensing troughs, passes downwardly in. the direction of the arrows 2.0, and up around the sides- 21, 21, 'ofithe'circulating perforations 6. In this .way, I am able to provide hot dry'steamior .the garments' to I be pressed.

The box- '5, for its top and sides, wi-ll be usually covered with several thicknesses of cloth, which, howevenare-not shown in the drawing. The steam for the. condensing 1 troughs is supplied through thez'pipe 22," which passes through the opening 34: in the box 5 and-connects at35 'with: .the steam.

pipe 12, and the's team for the circulating chamber is circulated through the inlet-pipe 23 and outlet pipe 24, which are suitably; connected by couplings with their res'pective connections within the apparatus. The

inlet pipe 23 passes through the opening 36 in the bottom of the box 5 and connects with the pipe 9 at 37,"and-. the outlet pipe '24 passes j through 5 and connects with the openin bottom of the circulating cham er.

The-smaller shoulder bed 25] 's of the same construction as the main garment bed.

m the opening :38 in the box- 10 in the This shoulderibedisfsupported on one end of the table this standard26," and is pro- 1 vicled with the approximately -Sem-i-spherical' perforated topplate 27, with the closed. circulating chamber 28,. with. steam pipe" inlet audout-let

' 32, and ai d-ischarge pipe 33 for the water of condensation.

In use, the garments to be 'steamed and pressed are laid 'upon the-top of thebe'd, and the steam passedthrough the cloth as above described. ;When. the. garments have been properly steamed and cleaned, the" pressing plate, which is usually hinged in proper position to be broughtdown on,top'

of the heating bed, is employed to press the garments: As my present-invention relates to the construction of the heating bed, how;

I ever, I have not illustrated the pressing plate.
