Definitions

  • This invention relates to a fur treating method and apparatus, and more particularly to a method of and apparatus for brushing and ironing furs and similar plle fabrics.
  • the brushing and ironing steps are, moreover, of a superficlal character, since the hairs or na of the fur are not treated to the roots; an while repetition of hand brushing and ironing partially rectifies this objection, this is done at the risk or danger of discoloring the fur due to local overheating or singeing.
  • machine elements as heretofore so practiced overcomes some of the objections incident to hand methods, the use of separated brushing and ironing elements for separately carrying out the brushing and ironing steps at different sections of the fur sufiers the disadvantage of producing a comparatively poor and incompletely finished product.
  • a rime object of my present invention centers about t e provision of a method of and apparatus for finishing furs in which the brushing and ironin steps are carried out with unlformity an efiiciency to an extent which yields a superior finished product.
  • the uniformity of the ironing and brushing steps obtained produces a better and homogeneous luster and a more uniform color when compared with the products of prior known methods.
  • the hair or nap of the furs or similar pile fabrics are subjected to alternating brushing and ironing steps in a continuous operation, the
  • a fur treating apparatus which includes means for uniformly brush- 7o ing the hairs or nap of pile fabrics, such as furs and uniformly ironing or glazing the same, by moving brushing and ironing elements, one immediately following the other relatively to the hair or nap of furs or sim- 76 ilar pile fabrics continuously, uniformly and in succession of alternate operations, the brushing and ironing elements being contifguous and within the limits of the length 0 the hairs or nap of the fabric, the suc- '80 cessive operations being such as to overcome the natural tendency of the hairs or nap to reassume any predetermined curled condition after brushing and prior to heating and so that brushing is carried out just when the 5 fur has been heated and ironing or glaz' while the filaments, hairs or nap are stretched or uncurled.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates in perspective a suitable form of device embodying an application of my invention
  • Fig. 2 is a cross-section thereof taken in the plane of the line 22 of Fig. 1;
  • Fig. 3 is a detail in perspective
  • Fig. 4 is a view taken in perspective and showing a modified form of the apparatus of the invention.
  • Fig. 5 is a cross-sectional view taken in the plane of the line 5-5 of Fig. 4;
  • Fig. 6 is a perspective view of a still further modification.
  • the apparatus comprises the supporting standards 7 and 8 having bearings for a shaft 9 upon which contact rings 10 are secured for furnishing energy to a plurality of electrical heating units 12, 12 arranged beneath the curved smoothing or ironing surfaces 13 and 14.
  • the ironing surfaces 13 and 14 are supported by a block 15 which extends longitudinally upon and is fixed to the shaft 9, the said block also serving as a support for a plurality of brush bases 16 and 17 suitably secured thereto.
  • These brush bases are provided with brush elements or bristles 18 preferably arranged at an angle as shown.
  • the brush elements 16 and 17 and the heating elements 13 and 14 thus comprise, when fixed to the supporting block 15, a rotatable drum with the heating and brushing elements arranged in close contiguity and in alternation.
  • a table or platform 20 which serves as a table or support for the fur or like fabric to be treated.
  • a handle or other suitable motor 21 secured to the shaft 9 so that as the fur is fed beneath the drum and on the table or support 20, the fur is sub- 'ected to the alternating action of the rushes 18 and the ironing elements 13 and 14 in a continuous operation.
  • the brushes function as a cooling medium effective intermediate the heating steps, the contact of the fur with the cooling brushes resulting in setting the hairs or filaments of the fur and in preventing overheating or singeing. Furthermore, as the operation obtained between alternations is produced by uniformly moving mounting means, the operations of ironing and brushing are uniform; and when associated, as described, to be carried out in rapid succession by alternate brushing and ironing, a homogeneity and uniformity of shade and luster without local underbrushing or overheating is obtained.
  • the shaft 22 is provided with a roller 23 above a fur supporting platform 24 and is also provided with a sprocket wheel 25 carrying the sprocket chain 26.
  • a belt 27 of canvas or other suitab e material which passes over the roller 23 and over a similar roller at the opposite end of the structure (not shown), the said belt supporting alternately and contiguously spaced heating plates 28 and brushes 29.
  • These plates 28 and brushes 29 are provided with lugs 30 extending from opposite ends and penetrated by bars 31 which are employed to aflix the heating and brushing units to the chain 26.
  • the skin or pelt is indicated as 32 supported on the platform 24 and when so supported the skinis subjected to the alternating action of the brushes and heating plates as the rollers 23 are operated from any suitable motor.
  • the operation serves to produce a uniform luster and glazing effect free from any tendency to produce uneven shades such as is due to the overheating or singeing incident to prior methods.
  • roller above the same, and means for applying the same thereto, said roller divided into circumferential sections, one of which is a brush, the other, a smooth surface and a heating element for said surface.
  • a support for the work a roller above the "same, and means for applying the same thereto, said roller divided into circumferential sections, one of which is a brush, the other a smooth surface and a heating element for said surface, said brush separated longitudinally into sections extending in a direction between the axis and transverse of said roller.
  • a work hold- 1 ing portion for mounting the pelt or the like, a rotatable member, means for mounting said rotatable member relatively to said workholding portion, means on said rotatable member for brushing and pressing the fur and heating means for said pressing means.
  • a fur treating device which comprises a work holdin tion a rotatable member and'means or rotatably mounti I :said member relatively to said work holding portion, said rotatable member including alternately spaced brushing and pressing members peripherall disposed on said rotatable member, and e ectri cal heating elements for said pressing members arranged interiorly of u said rotatable member.
