GARMENT PRESS.
Application filed April 15, 1921.
T 0 all 20 ham it may concern I V 7 Be it known that 1, Solomon Even, a citizen of England, and resident of New York city, in the county of New York and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Garment Presses, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to improvements in garment press and it is particularly adapted for the use of creasing trousers.
Its primary objects are to produce an inexpensive, but very eflicient and simple arti cle of this kind which may be put into immediate use without any previous preparations as folding, adjusting, etc, and adapted to be portable a'nd readily placeable into traveling trunks or otherwise carried with out any inconvenience to the user.
Heretofore, numerous devices have been invented for which various claims have been made. All of these apparatus are clumsy articles of bulky construction and operated by means of peculiarly designed mechanisms making them prohibitive in price.
The present invention consists in principle of two simple bars or slats, having both side edges beveled which are permanently connected with flexible means at one of their ends, which means may serve also as suspensions when my device is in use.
The double beveled bars or slats are held together by a plurality of simple clips adapted to slide from one side over the beveled portions and anchor at the opposite beveled portions of the slats, whereby they are prevented from voluntarily leaving their slatengaging posit-ion.
Another object of my invention is to provide between two such slat bars, flexible expanding means of the simplest possible construction which may be held in place in suitable recesses provided near the edges of the bars, thereby spreading the material clamped between these bars.
The above and still further objects will be more fully understood from the following description and the accompanying drawings forming part of this specification in which- Fig. 1 represents a side elevation of my device.
Fig. 2 is atop view thereof.
Fig. 3 is an end view of my device.
Fig. 4 is an enlarged sectional view taken on line 44 of Fig. 2.
Fig. 5 is a perspective detail view of my clip.

Figzli shows a portion of two bar pairs-in operation.
Fig. 7 is a perspective view of a preferred formof my slat. i 1
Fig. 8 is an end view thereof. 7
Fig. 9 is a partial perspective view of a modified form of my'slats. i
Fig. 10 shows two pairs of my modified bars in operation. Fig. 11 is a sectional view taken on line 1111 of Fig. 10.
Fig. 12 is a detail view showing my resilient spreading means.
Fig. 13 represents cross sectional views of modified forms of my slats.
Referringto the figures, numerals 10 and 11 represent preferred forms ofmy slats which are provided at both edges with beveled portions 13 and 1%.
At one end the slats are rounded as indicated at 15 and at that end the slats are provided with apertures indicated at 16, having a counter-sunkportion indicated at.17, in which are secured the knotted ends of a flexible medium, preferably a cord 18. This cord permanently connects the two bars and serves as suspension when the bars are in operation, as shown in Figs. 6 and 10.
While it is sufiicient. when for instance trousers are to be creased, to clamp the edges of a pair of trousers between two pairs of such slats and then suspending them by means of cords 18 in the manner shown in Fig. 6, whereby the slats are potentially held apart, and the trousers material stretched, it may occur, however, that the user would wish to more positively stretch a garment by means specially adapted for this purpose, although such stretching is not essential, as has been proven by actual experiments.
For this convenience I have provided my slats with either longitudinal recesses as indicated in Figs. 7 and 8 at-23, or with local recesses as shown in Fig. 9 at 24:. Both recesses serve for the purpose of accommodat- Patented 32111.3, 1922.-
ing a leaf spring'25, which is thrust into the recesses of two oppositely disposed slat bars thereby spreading the slats apart,
whereby the material clamped between them is stretched. V i
The slats may be made of wood or other suitable material, and they can also be made of pressed steel, as shown in Fig. 1.3, or in any other convenientmanner. V i
Theoperation of my device extremely simple, as is the article itself. moved clips 19, the two slats connected by cord 18 are freed. One of the slats is first laid down and the arment ed e is then care" fully placed upon the laid-down slat. Then the other slat is put on top of the garment and clips 19 arepassed from one side over the beveled edges to the opposite beveled edges of both slats, whereby the clips are 'manulactured very inexpensively and made accessible to users of all classes.
Having thus described my invention, I claim-- 1. A garment presscomprising a pair of doubly beveled slats, flexible means permanently connecting the latter and serving as suspension means, individual clips adapted to pass over one and to engage the opposite beveled'side' of said slats, thus being pre vented from accidentally slippingofl'.
2. A garment press comprising a pair of slats beveled at both edges, a flexible medium permanently joining said slats and Havin re-' adapted to serve as suspensionmeans, a plurality of individual clips adapted to pass over the beveled edges at one side of the slats, andpressingly engage the latter, and anchor at the opposite beveled portions of the slats.
3. A. garment press comprising pairs of slats beveled at both edges, flexible media permanently connecting eachpair of slats and serving as suspension means, a plu rality of clips adapted to. individually on gage said slats atdesired points in such a manner as to anchorat the beveled edges opposite to those over which they have first passed. V f 7 4. A garment press comprising pairs of flexibly connected slats beveled at both edges, their flexible connection adapted to serve as suspension means, a plurality of individual clips for pressing said slat-s together and adapted to pass from one to the opposite beveled edge of said slats, thusibeing positively locked in place, and resilient means disposed between the pairs of slats for facilitating stretching of the garment engaged by said slats.
5. A garment press and stretcher comprising a plurality of flexibly connected slat pairs, each slat having both edges beveled,
a plurality of spring clips adapted tobe' lockingly associated with those beveled edges of each closed slat pairvvhich are disposed opposite to those over which said clips have been firstpassed, a plurality of resilient members arranged between: each two slat pairs for facilitating stretching of the garment held by said slats, and means provided in the slatsior facilitating said'resilient stretching members to be securely held in desiredposition.
