Description
March 24, 1936. PLOTKIN CLOTH COVER FOR ALL TYPES OF PRESSING MACHINES AND HOUSEHOLD IRONING BOARDS Filed Sept. 4, 1935 Fig. 1
INVENTOR.
Patented Mar. 24, 1936 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE CLOTH COVER FOR ALL TYPES OF PRESS- ING MACHINES AND HOUSEHOLD IRON- ING BOARDS 1 Claim.
This invention relates to new and useful improvements in cloth covers for all types of pressing machines and household ironing boards. The need for a firm fitting, non-sliding, easy 5 slip-on and dust proof cover has long been recognized on all types of steam and hand pressing equipment. A common fault in steam operated pressing equipment is the fact that covers do not entirely envelop the pressing board. This fault permits heat-deteriorated padding to fall in the form of brown powder dust on goods in the process of pressing, and causes steam to escape from under the pressing board, thus lowering the efficiency of the machine and often burning the operators hands. In the present form of -covers, it is necessary to use from three to five hooked springs which are attached manually to the under side edges of the covers, to supply the necessary tautness to the pressing surface.
These springs cause indentations along the edges of the pressing surface, which in turn are visible on a pressed garment. Often the hooks are accidentally released from their hold on the cover, causing garments in the process of pressing to catch and tear.
Another faulty feature of the cover now in use is the fact that a cord is drawn entirely through the beaded edge which presses against the bare heated metal of the machine. The
intense heat causes the cord to turn brittle and break, thereby rendering the cover useless.
The object of my invention is to eliminate the above mentioned faults, lengthen the life of covers and simplify the method of covering pressing equipment surfaces as set forth in the following specifications:
The invention has for an object the manufacture of a cloth device as mentioned, which is characterized by a sleeved cover composed of two sections made in sizes suitable for all types of pressing machinery and household pressing boards.
Still further the invention proposes the use of a diagonally cut under-section of cloth to be sewn to the upper section as appears in the drawing which forms a material part of this disclosure.
Still further the invention proposes the use of a short beaded section to the upper portion of the cover.
Still further the invention proposes the use of two short lengths of heat-proof cord to be drawn through the beaded section.
Still further the invention proposes the construction of a device as mentioned which is simple and durable and which may be manufactured and sold at a reasonable cost.
In the accompanying drawing, forming a material part of this disclosure:
Fig. 1 is a view of the lower portion of a press- 5 ing machine with the cover applied, according to this invention.
Fig. 2 is the under-side View of the cover applied showing in detail the diagonally cut cloth afiixed in the desired manner to the upper 10 cloth pressing surface and in working position on the pressing machine.
The cover I according to this invention, is used in combination with a garment pressing surface 2, said surface being used with steam 15 or for household use.
A suitable cloth for covers is used to cut an upper surface 3 which slightly overlaps the form which it is intended to cover.
A stitched bead 4 is sewn at the widest end of 20 the cover, the length of said bead being determined by the form it is intended to cover.
Two heat-proof cords 5 are drawn through the bead 4, the free ends of which are allowed to hang loosely at the widest portion of the cover 25 where a slit 6 in the bead allows them to be drawn and tied when the cover is applied. The other ends of the cords 9 are joined to the diagonal cloth to supply tension to the diagonal cloth when the cords are pulled. 30
A diagonally-cut cloth 7 is cut in the pattern shown, its size being determined by the form it is intended to cover. The diagonally-cut cloth 1 is then attached by sewing 8 in the manner disclosed in Fig. 2. 35
The diagonally or bias cut cloth acts as the tightening medium when the cover is aflixed to a board. As a pull is exerted on the cords, the same pull is transmitted to the bias by virtue of the cords joining the end of the said 40 bias. This causes the lower section of the cover to contract evenly at all edges by the nature of its cut, thus pulling the upper section down tightly in all directions and so setting the entire cover in a firm, non-sliding and smooth position on 45 the pressing frame.
The device is applied to a pressing surface in the following manner:
The sleeve portion of the cover is slid on the narrow end of the pressing buck; then the operator moves to the other end of the cover and draws the cords, which gather the wide portion of the cover under the buck. The pull of the cords is exerted on the diagonally-cut portion. 55
of the cover which draws the top part of the cover under in every direction, thus presenting a smooth tight pressing surface that will not slide. This is all accomplished by the single act of drawing the cords for tying.
Both the upper and lower cloths may be cut of a similar material; however, I do not confine myself to any particular type or combination of material.
I further do not confine; myself solely to the lower pressing surfaces on pressing machinery, but also incorporate the use of my invention for the upper buclg of pressing equipment to which my invention relates.
While I have shown and described the preferred embodiment of my invention, it is to be understood that I do not limit myself to theprecise construction herein disclosed, and the right is reserved to all changes and modifications coming within the scope of the invention as defined in the appended claim.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by United States Letters Patent, is:-
In combination with a cloth cover slightly overlapping the pressing machine or ironing board surface it is intended to cover, a diagonally or bias cut cloth, cut in a semi-elliptical form and having a slightly concave shape along both outer edges, stitched to the overlapping edges of the upper cover in a manner to form a pocket, the rounded narrow ends of the upper and lower cloth meeting and the stitching extending back to the points where the bias cloth ends, a bead or tubular passageway sewn into the edge of the upper cloth cover from the point where one corner of the bias cloth ends, around and to the point where the other corner of the bias cloth ends, two heat-proof cords drawn through the beading, their loose ends for drawing and tying emerging from the slit at the center of the beading, the other two ends being 20 attached to the bias cut cloth at the points where the bias corners end.
