-. Application March 13, 1948, Serial No. 14,790
This invention relates to an improved iron for steaming, glazing, ironing or finishing furs.
l The primary object of my invention is to provide a steam-iron having a resilient pad of heat conducting material secured to a sole plate thereof, in which the surface of the pad that contacts the fur and/or guard hairs consists of a metallic wire or grid-screen of such fine mesh as to provide a gentle combing action of the fur and/or guard hairs during the steaming, glazing, ironing on finishing operation.
Another object of my invention is to provide an easily detachable ilanged perimetrical frame for retaining the resilient pad of woven metallic mesh in contact engagement with the heated sole plate of the iron.
A further object of my invention is to provide a detachable resilient pad of woven metallic mesh having a pressing surface covered with a metallic wire or grid-screen, wherein the mesh serves to conduct heat from the sole plate of an iron tov the wire screen, and wherein the wire screen serves to provide a combing action as it engages the fur and/or guard hairs under treatment.
Another object of my invention is to provide an iron having an electrically heated sole plate covered with -a detachable pad of resilient woven metallic mesh of such density as to provide a relatively low conductivity of heat to its pressing surface, so that the pressing surface of the pad has a temperature appreciably less than that of the sole plate of the iron.
Another object of my invention is to provide an iron having a heated sole plate with channeled passageways therein through which steam is circula-ted,` conditioned and discharged through thel lower horizontal surface thereof, and wherein the said lower surface has a pad of heating-conducting resilient-material secured in contact relation therewith for receiving and distributing the steam discharged from the sole plate, and which pad is heated by the sole plate so as to maintain the steam in its conditioned state.
With reference to the accompanying drawings which are a preferred embodiment of this invention:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the fur-finishing iron posed to show clearly a detachable resilient pad within a frame yand its relation to the sole plate of the iron.
Figure 2 is a front end elevation of the iron.
Figure 3 is a rear end elevation of the iron partially in section to show a portion of the detachable pad, the base and heating element, each in section.
7 Claims. (Cl. 69-20) Figure 4 is an elevation of the rear end of the base member of Fig. 3 without the shoe and onA a reduced scale.
Figure 5 is a section in plan of Fig. 4 along- 4line 5--5 of Fig. 4. Figure 6 is a sectional elevation of the base member at line 6 6 of Fig. 5.
Figure 7 is a sectional elevation of the basa at line 'i-l of Fig. 5.
Figure 8 is a sectional elevation of the base member at line 8 8 of Fig. 5.
Figure 9 is a sectional elevation of the p-ad adjacent the rear end.
Figure l0 is an elevation of the front end of the shoe.
In the present embodiment of this invention' a well known commercial steam electric-iron has been utilized wherein the base-sole plate member metal-wires and formed to cover the sole plate face 29 of base li, including ports ill-i9. It should be noted that woven metal-wire has been specified for the material from which this pad is composed. While other substances can vbe substituted, the overall results are not satisfactory for regular commercial service.
The lower or work face 22. of the pad is of l a nely woven metal grid-screen and extends, preferably, around the edge-corner 23 of the base in order to hold pad screen-frame or bezel 24 Aout of direct or face-to-face contact with the sole plate that is maintained at a too high temperature for application to fur. This spacing of the frame and work face 2| that, at times, contact the fur is maintained at a safe degree of heat for such use, that is, substantially lower than the sole plate, however, sufliciently high to avoid condensing the conditioned steam that is discharged from the ports to the fur through this pad and its grid-screen face.
At this point it should be noted that when the faces of the grid-screen and bottom surface of bezel :24, are used for pressing the fur, a combined combing and ironing effect is produced and that when this iron is angularly applied to the fur, with the grid screen out of contact therewith, an ironing effect results from the smooth bottom and ange face surfaces contacting the fur.
Electric current is supplied to the resistor IE through wire 26 through conventional apparatus. Bezel 24 together with pad 2l which assembly may be referred to as a shoe are removably attached to the iron by bolts 21--28 as shown in Figs. 1 and 3.
While it will be apparent that the illustrated embodiments of my invention herein disclosed are well calculated to adequately fulfill the objects and advantages primarily stated, it-is to be understood that the invention is susceptible to variation, modification and change within the spirit and scope of the subjoined claims.
