PRESSING BUCK Filed Feb. 18. 1929 d a u ATTORNEY Patented Oct. 27, 1931 PATENT OFFICE ARCHIE O. LONG, OF KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI PRESSING- BUCK l Application filed February 18, 1929. Serial No. 340,886.
My invention relates to presses and more particularly to pressing heads and padded frames adapted for pressing the yokes, cuis and similar portions of shirts and normally supported and operated by well-known press mechanism used in laundries, the principal objects of the invention being to adapt a press for pressing a plurality of portions of a garment and particularly to adapt a pressing head and a complementary frame for receiving and efhciently pressing the yoke and cuff of a shirt and the portion of the shirt sleeve to which the culip is attached.
In ordinary laundry presses a separate press is provided for each class of operation, for example presses being adapted by suitable frames and heads for respectively pressing cuffs, yokes, collar bands, and sleeves.
When the functions of several presses have been combined in one, the result has ordinarily been the mounting of several different forms of heads and frames on a single pedestal for operation by single operating means, so that the several portions of a garment may be pressed coincidentally in one operation of the machine. Heretofore, therefore, separate padded fra-mes and pressing heads have been required for each portion of the garment, the economy of assembling a group of heads and frames residing in the reduction of operations by the mechanism.
An object of my invention therefore is to adapt a single combination of pressing head and padded frame for pressing a plurality of yitems separately or coincidentally, for reducing the number of pieces of equipment in a laundry, the space occupied by equipment, and the expense of installingand operating the same and whereby the number of operabe pressed may be minimized and the quality ofthe work enhanced.
In accomplishingthese and other objects of the invention, I have provided improved details of structure, vthe preferred forms of which are illustratedfin the accompanying drawings, wherein :v A
Fig.` 1 is a front elevation of a laundry press embodying my invention.
Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the press, the
tions for installing garments in position tol pressing head and guide for the vertically slidable buck being shown in section.
Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the buck and pressing head shown in vertically aligned and spaced relation.
Fig. 4 is a longitudinal vertical section similar to the view in Fig. 2 of the pressin head, buck and guide illustrating in dotte lines the horizontally adjustable position of the slide for installing garments to be pressed.
Referring in detail to the drawings:
1 designates generally a support comprising a pedestal 2 having spaced vertical arms 3 for supporting a hollow heating head 4: in- 65 Cluding a transverse member 5 and arch member 6 through which steam may be passed.
A vertical pressure shaft 7 operable by treadles 8 and 9 supports a buck 10 including spaced arms 11 and 12 connected at the 7@ top by a slide-receiving dome 13, and a padding frame 14 is mounted on a slide rod V15 slidably mounted in bearing openings 16 in the arms 11 and 12. rIhe bucl; is guided in vertical movement by the lower steam chest. A saddle-like padding support or slide 17 is mounted on the frame 14;, and has a portion 18 (Fig. 4 only) extending forwardly from the frame and slidable over the dome 13 when the frame is moved horizontally toward and away from the buck.
The frame is moved toward the buck to bring the padding slide 17 into registry with the upper steam chest by means of the handle 19 on the rod 15, and is restored to outwardly S5 spaced position by a spring 2O anchored to a table 21 projecting from the pedestal, and operating on a lever 22 pivotally connected to the rod at 23 and slidably engaging in a grooved bracket 24 extending from the pedes- 90 tal.
The pressure shaft may be actuated by steam pressure controlled by the treadles.
The pedestal, lower steam chest, padding frame, buck and operating means are commonly found in laundry pressing machines, my invention consisting in the padding support and upper steam chest which will now be particularly described.
further has a forwardly downwardly extendand'having an arcuate shoulder 30 extending rearwardlywhereby .the yoke of a shirt may be positioned on said portion with vthe neck band of-Itheshirt resting on the shoulder, the shirt thus being extended in horizontal posishown in dotted lines. Theyokeportion 26 ingY rear edge '31 `toreceive the shoulders of The intermediate portion 27 of the `padding bed is adapted to pressing acuti, and
includes 'downwardly diverging wings extending 1n the lsame plane as the wingsk of y the yoke portion and having lengths substantially equal to the length of a cuff, the lower p edge- 33 ofthe portion being therefore inset fromy the lower edgeof the yoke .portion thefcuf .portion to provide a vertical edge 34 with which the sleeve-attached edge of a .cuff may register as killustrated in ldotted lines in Fig' and the front portion 28 ofthe bed extends in the plane of the cuff 'and yoke portions, its wings being abbreviated and having tapering lower: edges 35, whereby the vplacket and cylindrical portionof the sleeve may extend within the diverging planes of the portion 28 to avoid the stretching of the 'sleeve which would benecessary if the bed were continued forwardly without incutting fromthe cuff portion, and to permitthe cuff to be spread on the cu'f portionvof the bed.
I form the upper steam chest complementarily to the padding bed, having a rear portion 36 adapted toV cooperate and overliethepadded rear portion ofthe frame, an intermediate portion 37, Vand aforward portion 38 Vto cooperate respectively withk the cuff andfront portions of the Ipadding bed.
It is to be understood that the padding support is provided as' described for the bed, and the padding is adapted to t upon the support.
The device being provided asdescribed, the yoke -of a shirt may be etliciently pressed,'an d the shirt may then yberepositioned in the same press, with the cuff on the padding bed for pressing .against the steam. chest, whereby removal of theshirt to another press or bed for pressing the cuff is obviated, and a substantial Savin g of time and equipment is effected.
