SLEEVE BRESSING PAD Filed sept; 28', 1940 dtlomeys.
Patented Mar. 23, 1943 UNiTED STATES PATENT OFFICE SLEEVE PRESSING PAD Lucille E. Hoagland, Rosemead, Calif.
Application September 28, 1940, Serial No. 358,747
2 Claims.
This invention relates to the pressing of sleeves of garments. As is well known, the eicient pressing of a sleeve of a garment is a rather dilicult operation. According to common practice, it is necessary to pull the sleeve over a sleeveboard, but this entails trouble in setting up the sleeve-board as an adjunct to the regular pressing-board on which the body of the garment is pressed. Furthermore, even in using a sleeveboard, the sleeve cannot usually be applied to it conveniently so as to insure that the face of the board will back up to all points of the sleeve that ought to be pressed.
One of the objects of the present invention is to provide a sleeve pressing pad adapted to be applied to ones hand, and capable of being thrust into the sleeve so that the pressing iron can be held in the other hand and applied to the material of the sleeve by pressing the same between the pahn of the hand and the face of the pressing iron.
In its construction, the pad employed for this purpose, includes a central body of rock wool as one of the most efficient insulation materials from the heat of the iron that can be employed. However, one of the diiculties met with in using this insulating material, is that if employed in the condition in which it is sold commercially, it does not have sufcient insulating effect against the heat of the iron, to protect ones hand. Furthermore, difficulty is experienced in preventing the mineral wool from working through its envelope; that is to say, the ends of broken pieces of the wool will penetrate a cloth envelope. Of course. the pressure exerted in using the pad aggravates this undesirable eiect. This must be prevented because if it is not done, the mineral fragmentary view, and merely shows the position of the hands, the pressing iron and contiguous parts during the operation.
Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section taken through the complete pad, but the section passes only through the outer envelope while the pad proper is shown in elevation.
Fig. 3 is a diagrammatic view illustrating one of the steps employed in preparing the insulating material for its use for my purpose.
Fig. 4 is a cross-section through the pad proper, that is shown in elevation in Fig. 2. This view is taken about on the line 4-4 of Fig. 2 but, of course, this section does not show any part of the outer envelope.
Before proceeding to a more detailed description of the invention, it should be stated that the most satisfactory insulating material for my purpose is rock wool. This material is supplied to the trade commercially in thick sheets about two inches thick. It is not possible to employ a pad of this thickness and, furthermore, the material cannot be readily be conveniently cut into thinner sheets. For this reason, in practicing my invention, I cut blocks of the material from the large sheets, and then compress them from their f approximate thickness of two inches, to about wool will come in contact with the material being pressed, and might scratch it or interfere with the integrity of its weave. One of the objects of my invention is to construct the pad in such a way as t0 prevent particles of the mineral wool from working through its cloth envelope.
The invention consists in the novel parts and combination of parts to be described hereinafter, all of which contribute to produce an eflicient sleeve pressing pad.
A preferred embodiment of the invention is described in the following specification, while the broad scope of the invention is pointed out in the appended claims.
In the drawing:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view illustrating the application of my method in practice in pressing the sleeve of a garment. This view is, of course, a
three-quarters of an inch. This reduces the thickness of the material to a thickness that I can employ for my purpose, and at the same time, the compressing of the material increases its utility for my purpose. However, in this compressing operation, bers of the rock wool become broken, and it is diflicult to prevent them from working their way through an envelope covering an insulating body or central pad. In accordance with my invention, however, I o-vercome this tendency by enveloping the insulating body in an inner envelope of a soft fibrous material such as raw cotton, or cotton batting. I employ a sheet of this material of approximately one-eighth -of an inch in thickness, which rests against the outer faces of the core and envelops the core of the pad which is composed of the rock wool. The cotton is held in place by an outer envelope of a fabric such as muslin. In order to enable this pad to be used to protect ones hand when thrust into the sleeve that is being pressed, I prefer to employ a mitten into which the hand is thrust, said mitten extending preferably only to the wrist, having the insulation pad secured inside of it, and in such a position that ones hand can be conveniently slipped into the mitten back of the insulating pad. However, it will be obvious that any suitable means may be employed for enabling the insulating pad to be held on the palm of the hand that is thrust into the sleeve.
In Fig. 3, I illustrate a .block I of insulating material such as rock-wool, mineral wool, or equivalent material. SThis block is cut from a sheet which is the form in which the material is supplied on the market. After cutting a block to the desired shape and dimensions, I place a fairly rigid sheet 2 of material such as cardboard, on
the upper face of the block, and then I force the cardboard down by pressure of the hand to compress the material; in Fig. 3 the final position of the cardboard sheet is indicated by the dotted lines 2a. In other words, I compress the block to a suitable thickness to use the resulting pad as a core for the material of the completed pad. This core 3 illustrated in Fig. 4, is then enveloped in an inner envelope 4 of a vsoft unwoven brous material such as raw cotton, or cotton batting. This cotton batting is then enveloped in an outer envelope 5 of closely Woven fabric, such as' musli. In the present instance, this outer envelope is formed by foldingthe sheet of muslirl about the core and batting, then sewing the same along the opposite edges to form the cppositely disposed seams 6. This completes the insulating pad T illustrated in Fig. 2. Any suitable means may be employed for enabling this insulating pad to be held on the palm of ones handso as "to enable it to be slipped into the sleeve that is to be pressed.
AFor this purpose, however, I prefer to employ a mitten 8 which may also be formed of muslin or any other suitable material. This mitten may consist simply of a sack open at one end into which the insulating pad Tis slipped and secured 'by stitching 9, which may be located near the outer point or mouth I0 `of the outer bag or mitten. Thefdevice is used in the manner indicated in Fig'. 1, the left hand of the ironer being inserted in the'mitten below the pad so that the flat upper face of the pad and the muslin covering can be held against the inner side of a sleeve Il into which the hand is thrust. The `right hand grasps the hot iron I2, which is then applied to the outer side of the material forming the sleeve Il. It will be evident that in performing this pressing operation, the left hand can be shifted around in the sleeve so as to enable it to back up the sleeve at any point to which the iron is being applied.
What I claim is:
1. A flexible sleeve pressing pad having means for holding the same on ones hand so as to enable the pad to be applied on the inner side of a sleeve of a garment being pressed, said pad having an insulating body of rock-wool, an vinnerv envelope consisting of a batting of unwoven brous material disposed as a layer distinct from the rock-wool against the outer face of the rock- Wool and enveloping the rock-wool; land an outer envelope of fabric enveloping the inner envelope, said inner envelope operating to entangle small particles of the rock-Wool and prevent the ends of the saine from touching andl penetrating through the outer envelope.
2. A flexible 'sleeve pressing pad having means for holding the same on ones hand, terminating at the Wearers wrist for application on the inside into contact and penerating through theouter;
envelope.
