UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
DAVID GESSNER, OF \VOROESTER, MASSACHUSETTS.
ART OF FINISHING FABRICS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 424,055, dated March 25, 1890.
Application filed November 27, 1889. Serial No. 331,818. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, DAVID GESSNER, of Worcester, in the State of Massachusetts, have invented a new and useful Improvement in the Art of Finishing Fabrics, of which the.
following is a specification.
This invention is especially applicable to the finishing of fabrics of the class generally known as damask cloths. I-Ieretofore in finishing this class of fabrics it has been customary to stretch them, then size them, then brush them, then stretch them again, and then hot press them. When the fabric has been finished, however, it has been found frequently that the flocks and lint which had accumulated on the cloth prior to the sizing operationwere so' glued fast to the cloth by the sizing as to be carried through all of the operations and be pressed into the cloth in the last operation and seriously impair the value of the completed article. The application of the brushes to the cloth after the application of the sizing made it impossible for them to successfully clean the cloth, and at the same time caused them to remove the sizing from the cloth to a greater or .less extent and become clogged up, so as to lose many of their useful qualities. L
In my process I transfer the brushing operation from the point of the process succeeding the sizing toa point preceding the sizing, and I am thereby enabled to remove all of the foreign substances from the cloth, so that when the finishing operation is complete the surface of the cloth will be free from anything of the kind.
In the accompanying drawings, 1 have shown by diagram sufficient of the mechanism employed in carrying out my process to clearly set forth its characteristics.
Figure 1 represents the sizing mechanism and the mechanism which precedes it in the process. Fig. 2 represents the mechanism which succeeds the sizing mechanism in the process.
The cloth runs, as indicated by the arrows, from the fold shown in Fig. 1 to the roll 12, and in succession it is treated to the brushing operation on one side by the brush 3, the brushing operation on the opposite side by the brush 4, the lateral stretching by the stretcher 6, and the sizing of the sizing-rolls 7 and 8, which receive the sizing from the receptacle 10. The next operation which the cloth encounters in the process is the lateral stretching by the stretcher 14 of Fig. 2, from which it passes between the heated cylinder 16 and heated bed-plate 15, between which it receives the customary hot pressing. The operation of finishing is then complete.
I claim- 1. The process of finishing fabrics, which consists in brushing, sizing, and hot pressing in the order named, substantially as described.
2. The process of finishing fabrics, which consists in brushing, stretching, sizing, stretching, and hot pressing in the order named, substantially as described.
