THOMAS ALEXANDER ELPHICK, OF CASTLENAU, ENGLAND.
IRONINGr-MACHINE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed December 11, 1909.
Patented Oct. 11, 1910. Serial No. 532,874.
To all whom it may concern.
Be it known that I, THOMAS ALEXANDER ELPHIOK, a subject of the King of Great Britain and Ireland, residing at 13 Lonsdale road, Castlenau, in the county of Surrey, England, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Ironing-Machines, of which the following is a full and complete specification.
This invention relates to ironing machines of the kind in which a reciprocating table for carrying the work passes between a heated roller and one or more supporting rollers, and it has for its object increasing the output of such machines. I attain this end by so arranging the pad on which the articles to be ironed are placed that as said pad passes under the heated roller it is drawn up and travels with said roller so as to become wound on it, the object being to keep the articles as long as possible in contact with the heated roller.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a side view of the machine, partly in section. Fig. 2 is an end view of portions of the machine, showing a modification. Fig. 3 is a detail side View of the belt-shifting mechanism. Fig. 4 is a side view, partly in section, of the upper part of the machine shown in Fig. 2. Fig. 5 is a plan view of the machine shown in Fig. 1.
The machine is provided with a frame m of any approved construction, and a heated ironing-roller cl is journaled by means of a shaft f in the upper part of the frame. A slidable support for the flexible ironing-pad a is arranged in the frame under the ironing-roller. In the preferred form of the machine, shown in Figs. 1 and 5, this support consists of a rigid table I) which slides horizontally upon a large roller 0 and two smaller rollers 19 which are journaled in the frame :20.
The pad a is arranged to be wound upon the periphery of the ironing-roller, and one end portion of it is secured by a bar 12 to brackets b at one end of the table. The pad is supported by the table when unwound, and two flexible connections a are secured to its other end portion, one at each side thereof, by means of a bar 0 The connections 0 are attached to brackets 3 at the other end of the table by means of screwthreaded rods 7", nuts 8, and tension springs 25, so that the pad and the connections are kept taut.
The ironing-pad a is made of such a length that it will not wind more than once around the ironing-roller. The flexible connections 0 are wound upon two guides or guide-pulleys 0 arranged one at each end of the ironing-roller and connected there with; and the connections 0 are of such a length that the heated ironing-roller will run clear of the pad at one end of the machine. This prevents the pad from being scorched by continued contact with the ironin -roller. The articles to be ironed are pressed between the ironing-roller and pad as the support is slid back and forth.
In order to prevent the ironing-pad from being wound to a greater extent than desirable upon the ironing-roller, the machine is provided with automatic stop mechanism. A belt-shifter w is provided for placing the driving-belt on the loose pulley p, and this belt-shifter is operated by means of a footlever o, and intermediate shifting mechanism 'w of any approved construction. A tappet Z is secured to one end portion of the slidable support, and when the pad has been wound upon the ironing-roller to a prearranged extent this tappet strikes a lever it which is pivoted to the frame on. The lever it carries a rod 7%. the lower end of which is provided with a projection m which raises the foot-lever o and thereby actuates the belt-shifting mechanism so that it stops the machine.
In the modification shown in Figs. 2 and 4, the slidable support consists of a frame 0, instead of a table, and the pad a and the flexible connections 0 are secured by brackets n and 72. respectively, to the end portions of this frame. The large supporting roller is arranged close under the pad 0;, and the small supporting rollers p are dispensed with.
What I claim is:
1. In an ironing machine, the combination, with a revoluble ironing-roller and guides arranged at the ends thereof, of a slidable support, an ironing-pad connected at one end with the said support and arranged to be wound upon the ironing-roller, and flexible connections arranged to be wound upon the said guides, said connections being connected with the said support at one end and being attached at the other end to the side portions of the other end of the ironing-pad.
2. In an ironing machine, the combination, with a revoluble ironing-roller and guides arranged at the ends thereof, of a slidable support, an ironing-pad connected at one end with the said support and arranged to be wound upon the ironing-roller, flexible connections arranged to be wound upon the said guides, said connections being connected with the said support at one end and being attached at the other end to the side portions of the other. end of the ironingpad, and means for arresting the motion of the ironing-roller automatically when the ironing-pad has been wound upon it to a prearranged extent.
3. In an ironing machine, the combination with a revolubie ironing-roller and guides arranged at the ends thereof, of a siidable table, an ironing pad connected at one end with the said table, said pad being arranged to be wound upon the ironingroller and to, rest on the table when unwound, and flexible connections arranged to be wound upon the said guides, said connections being connected with the said table at one end and being attached at the other end to the side portions of the other end of the ironing-pad.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto signed my name in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
THOMAS ALEXANDER ELPHIGK.
