Application, nee September i 1924. Serial No. 735,839.

This invention relates to spring pads, for

pressing niachinea'ias garment and laundry pressing machines, and has for its object a Figure 3 is a l'ragmentar detail viewoi the spring blanks before fol ed into position to be placed in the pad. 7 p lhis pad comprises vcoiled springs interposed between the base and top or the top and bottom plates oi the pad, the end coils ll of the springs being connected by wires in tegrjal therewith for-min straightened extensions, and. the lower en coil ofeach spring a being connected to the lowermost coil of an adjacent spring by such extension, and the 3 uppermost coil of each spring being connect- 8 spring by suc integral extension of the upper coil of the spring.

These connecting wires form rests or seats for the upper and lower plates, and hold the spring lroni relative movement or displace ment, and also hold an one spring from movement relatively to t e upper and lower plates between which the springs are interposed, ll desired the connecting pieces or some of them! may be secured to the plate it overlies. V

l and 1% designate the upper and lower plates of the pad, the upper plate being new ally a. wire mesh, and 3 esignates the fabric covering or wra per, all as will be understood by those skilled in the art. The lowermost plate is usually of sheet metal and may be perforated for permitting steam to ass through the padding from the buck to t e surface of the pad or to the garment or other article being operated on. p I

It will be understood that the pad is placed on either the lower buck or the press to the upper coil of another adjacent advantagcous-inthat the springs are readily by connecting pieces forming continuations ring pieces being arrang head of a standard pressing inachine,- it to being usually mounted on the lower buck.

4: designates the coil springs, and 5 designates the integral connecting wires, connecting the lowermost coil 6 of each spring to the lowermost coil 6 of an adjacent spring, and 7 designates an integralconnecting piece between the uppermost coil 8 of each spring and that of another adjacent spring.

A. plurality of these springs are coiled up from-a single wire in straight formation as seen in. Figure 3 with the springs 4 connected by connecting portions 5 and 7, and the springs'are folded at right angles to the connectingportions into the form shown in Figure 0 a in use a single series of springs may be laid over the entire area of the plate 1, or such single series may be split up into several sections depending upon the length of the wire forming the springs and connecting portions, orthe springs may be'formed up into small mats and several of these mats laid on the base plate tocover the same. These mats may be square ortriangular, or any other'geometrical figure.

if desiredthe springs may be secured to either the top or lower plate at intervals by suitable fastening means as rivets 9, coactmg with connecting portions 5 or 7. When the pad formation is used no riveting or other fastening is necessary, but when the series of springs follow a line" fastening means may be used at intervals. I

This spring construction is particularly and economically assembled in the pad, and are held by means inherent in their construction from relative displacement and from individual displacement.

What lclaun is: H i 10 A. spring pad com rising upper and lower plates and a pad ding consisting of coiled springs connected byconnecting pieces at their upperends and at their lower ends of the end coils of the springs, the connectagainst the oppos ing sides of the plates i 2. A spring pad comprising upper and lower plates and 5. padding consisting of coiled springs connected. by connecting pieces at their upper ends and at their lower ends by connecting piecesforming continuations 5 ice springs connecting the springs together, the 10 connecting Wires being ositioned to thrust against the inner sides 0 the opposing plates of the pad.

In testimony whereof, I have hereunto signed my name, at Syracuse, in the county 15 of Onondaga, and in the State of New York, this 20th day of August, 1924.
