Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- This invention relates to a shirts press for use in finishing in press for a shirts such as a washed shirts and the like. More particularly, this invention relates to a shirts press with a function for extending a collar formed in such a way that the shrunk collar due to its washing can be extended in a neat manner and pressed.
- 2. Description of the Related Art
- As this type of a shirts press, there has been provided a machine devised by the present applicant that is described in a gazette of U.S. Pat. No. 6,722,063, for example. This type of related art shirts press comprises a collar iron buck on which the collar is placed while being expanded and a press iron for depressing against the upper surface of the iron buck for a collar to press it, wherein a radius of curvature at the upper surface of the iron buck for a collar is selected to be larger than that of an iron surface of the press iron. Then, the iron buck for a collar is divided into two right and left segments at its central position and so the iron buck is formed by a pair of the right and left divided segments. In addition, this shirts press is provided with a depressing mechanism for turning each of the divided segments in an upward outside direction when a collar is pressed and for depressing the collar against an iron surface of the press iron.
- However, in this type of prior art press used for a press work, the iron buck on which a collar is placed while being expanded was formed in a mountain-shape curved upwardly in a convex form and the iron surface of the press for pressing a collar was formed into a concave curved shape.
- Due to this fact, the prior art press produced a difference in extension at a cloth of each of a front side and a rear side of a collar because the collar was finished in press into a curved shape. Accordingly, when a person put on a white shirts pressed by the prior art press, some wrinkles were easily formed at the inner surface of a collar with the result that the wrinkles produced a problem that the wrinkles give an uncomfortable feeling to the wearing person and caused a wearing posture to be bad. In addition, the prior art press had a problem that since a wrinkle could easily be produced at the rear side of a collar, the wrinkle could easily become a hindrance item when a person worn a neck-tie through the collar.
- This invention has been invented in reference to such a prior art problem described above.
- Accordingly, it is a technical problem to be solved by the present invention to provide a shirts press having a function of extending or expanding a collar in which the collar shrunk by its washing work can be extended or expanded, finished into a new product state in a neat manner and at the same time the collar can be extended and finished in the same sizes of a front side and a rear side of the collar without producing any difference in a circumferential length of its neck part.
- As shown in
FIGS. 1, 7 and 9 and the like, the shirts press of the present invention is formed while comprising a collar iron buck on which a collar of a shirts is placed while it is being extended or expanded and a press iron for pressing the collar by depressing against the upper surface of the collar iron buck. A position of the upper surface of the collar iron buck corresponding to the central part of the collar in a longitudinal direction is notched into an inverse triangular shape as seen from its front elevational view. The right and left positions corresponding to both ends of the collar in its longitudinal direction communicating with the upper surface position have a horizontal surface. The upper surface of the collar iron buck is formed into such a shape as one in which it may be fallen into a flat surface when it is depressed by the press iron. In addition, this upper surface is provided with a receiving plate for supporting the central part of the collar in its longitudinal direction when the collar is placed on the collar iron buck. This receiving plate is arranged above the upper surface position where it is notched in an inverse triangular shape with its height being set to the same height as those of the right and left position corresponding to both ends of the collar, and concurrently when the press iron depresses against the collar, the receiving plate is formed such that it can be pulled out of it. Additionally, the iron surface of the aforesaid press iron is formed into a flat surface shape. - A technical meaning of “ . . . formed into such a shape as one in which it may be fallen into a flat surface . . . ” in the specification is meant by a feature that when a depressing force of the press iron is applied on the upper surface of the collar iron buck, the upper surface is fallen into a flat surface shape and in turn when the depressing force is removed or released, the upper surface is recovered to its original shape. Further, a technical meaning of “ . . . when the press iron depresses against the collar, the receiving plate can be pulled out of it . . . ” is meant that the receiving plate is not depressed together with the collar. In the present invention, a timing applied for pulling out the receiving plate is normally selected just before the press iron depresses against the collar. However, if the depressing force of the press iron is completely applied to the collar, applying of the depressing force may also be applied just after it.
- The present invention is operated such that the collar iron buck is fallen into a flat surface state. And in this case, the iron surface of the press iron is formed in a flat surface. Accordingly, with this arrangement, both the front side and the rear side of the collar are pressed under the same size state.

cylinder device 27, the rod-less cylinder 24 (refer toFIGS. 1 and 4 ) is driven to cause the receivingplate 23 to move forward and then the receivingplate 23 is arranged above theupper surface position 2 a notched in an inverse triangular shape. Under this state, the operator sets the collar 1 a of the shirts 1, as shown inFIG. 1 , at the upper surface of thecollar iron buck 2 while being expanded. Then, when the operator depresses the switch, the rod in the operating cylinder 29 (refer toFIG. 4 ) extends and thepress iron 3 turns downward around thepivot part 31. Then, when a sensor (not shown) detects that the rod in theoperating cylinder 29 extends, therod-less cylinder 24 is operated while receiving a signal from the sensor, the receivingplate 23 slides in a rearward direction and retracts. With the foregoing operation, the receivingplate 23 is pulled out of theupper surface position 2 a of thecollar iron buck 2. - Thus, when the
press iron 3 depresses against the collar 1 a, theplate 5 forming theupper surface position 2 a (refer toFIGS. 6 and 7 ) is turned downward around thepivot shaft 6 and depressed. In addition, thehorizontal plates 7 at the right and leftpositions 2 b corresponding to both ends of the collar 1 a are gradually depressed down against a resilient force of thefirst coil spring 9 and thesecond coil spring 13 while slightly moving in an outward direction. Then, theplates 5 and thehorizontal plates 7 are finally fallen into a flat surface state and further depressed down by thepress iron 3 up to a limit where thespring 17 can be compressed while being kept fallen. With such an arrangement as above, the wrinkle at the collar 1 a is further extended while thespring 17 is in the maximum compression stroke. - In addition, in the present invention, when the
press iron 3 depresses against thecollar iron buck 2, its press pressure is also applied to thecuff iron buck 25. Accordingly, theiron part 26 depresses against the cuff 1 b and the cuff 1 b is pressed in its finish in concurrent with the collar 1 a. - The present invention is operated such that the
collar iron buck 2 is fallen flat through a depressing operation of thepress iron 3, and the collar 1 a is depressed with thepress iron 3 having the iron surface formed into a flat surface. Accordingly, in accordance with this arrangement, it is possible to extend both the front side and the rear side of the collar 1 a in the right or left direction in the same size and to press them in a neat manner. - In the foregoing arrangement, it is also applicable in the present invention that there is provided only the
collar iron buck 2 and thecuff iron buck 25 is eliminated. However, when the press is formed while being provided with thecuff iron buck 25, not only the collar 1 a but also the cuff 1 b can be pressed concurrently through one pressing operation as described in the foregoing example and so the present invention provides an advantage that its working efficiency is improved. In addition, in this case, arrangement of thecuff iron buck 25 below thecollar iron buck 2 enables a small-sized device or a space saving to be attained. - Further, in the present invention, it may also be applicable that the
collar iron buck 2 is fallen into a flat surface shape by a damper, for example, or formed to be recovered. - In addition, although the receiving
plate 23 is formed to be moved forward or retracted in the foregoing example, it may also be applicable in the present invention that the receivingplate 23, for example, is turned from the rear upper part toward the front side and arranged at theupper surface position 2 a and when the receivingplate 23 is pulled out, it may be slid and retracted.
