Description
. C. Rv HEIGHES CLOTHES PRESSING MACHINE PAD Jan; 5, 1932 Filed Nov. 6, 1929 Inventor ji yim Patented Jan. 5, 1932 m OFFICE B. HEIGHES, OF ALBUQUERQUE, MEXICO CLOTHES PRESSING MACHINE PAJ) Application filed November This invention relates to an improved pad construction for use in association with a clothes pressing machine of the type employing a steam heated pressing block or buck as it is commonly referred to in the trade. a
The principal object is to provide a novel construction and arrangement of padding the paddin or cushioning means which is usually app ied to the ironing surface of the 1 buck of a clothes pressing machine.
In carrying the invention into effect I provide a padding which will withstand the rela tively high heat of the buck Without scorching or charring, and at the same, time guarding against sogginess and the resultant loss of elasticity, due to excessivemoisture occasioned by the sprinkling of articles during pressing operation with steam emerging from the apertures of the buck or bead.
More specifically stated, I have evolved and produced a structure which is characterized by an appropriately covered pad wherein the pad proper is preferably composed of steel wool equipped with a protecl tive screen, and incorporating therein a multiplicity of cushioning springs of coiled form.
In the drawings:
Figure 1 is a top plan view with portions m broken away and shown in elevation of a pad constructed in accordance with the present invention,
Figure 2 is a longitudinalview in edge elevation with the covering material removed,
Figure 3 is across section taken approximately on the plane of the line 33 of Figure 1.
Referring now to the drawings by reference numerals and especially to Figure 3 it will be observed that the metal buck is generally designated by the reference character 4. This is of usual construction, being in the nature of a hollow steam chest 5 whose curvate top 6 is formed with a multiplicity of steam discharge ports 6a. Then too, the marginal portion 7 is of the usual projecting rim type. The improved pad is generally designated by the reference character 8 and 6, 1929. Serial N0. 405,185.
this comprises a filler 9 preferably of steel wool of an appropriate resilient texture.
Suitably fastenedto the top of this filler is an appropriate mesh screen 10. This screen aids in maintaining the metallic strands of the fillerin pad forming relationship. Otherwise stated, the screen constitutes a retaining element for maintaining the mass assembly of the metallic strand which make up the complete filler. Embedded in this metallic filler are coil springs such as are desig nated by the numerals 11. These are of suitable proportions and configuration and are tied or otherwise fastened in the filler in such a way that the lower end coils project below the bottom of the filler 9 as seen in Figure 2. These coils are designed to rest directly on top of the buck 4, as seen in Figure 3. When the filler is tied down, the coils disappear into'the mass of metallic strands of the filler.
The reference character 12 designates a covering felt which is placed over the screen, and 13 represents the surface covering which is of appropriate textile fabric. The covering 13 is provided with a pocket 14 containing a retaining ring or cord as at 15 the same being fastened around and under the rim 7 as seen clearly in Figure 3.
The following advantages accompany my improved pad. It is permanently resilient because of the inherent resilient nature of the steel wool and the additional elasticity of coil springs anchored therein.
It is sufliciently porous through this arrangement to permit free passage of steam. The construction is easilysecured in operative position on the conventional buck. The springs in this arrangement are not soldered or secured permanently to the buck but are preferably secured in the steel wool itself, making-replacement of a broken spring an inexpensive and simple operation.
It has been found that by securing the springs to the steel wool filler a heat retaining pad is obtained which is in demand 1n arrangement of this type. It leaves no opening between the buck and the pressing surface. The unusual compressible nature of the complete pad affords self conformation to the garments pressed thereon without breaking buttons and eificient pressing is thereby insured.
The steel wool serves as a principal part of the padding and obviates the necessity of employing fibrous and textile materials for the purpose.
Attention is also invited to the fact that the structure is characterized by simple cooperation of parts which serves to combine the qualities of steel wool and coiledsprings associated therewith. This of course is an appropriate padding and it gives a much hotter and dryer buck and has less tendency to shine the garment.
It does not hold dam ness. The provision of a screen overlying t e top of the highly compressible steel wool filling afiords an appropriate seat for the fabric covering means and at the same time provides a highly elastic and compressible pressing surface for garments. It is thought, however, that by considering the description in connection with the drawings, a clear understandin of the construction, operation, features an advantages of the invention will behad. Therefore, a more lengthy description is regarded as unnecessary.
Minor changes in the same, shape, materials and rearrangement of details coming within the field of invention claimed may be resorted to in actual practice if desired.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new is:
As a new product of manufacture, an allmetal compressible pad for use in association with a clothes pressing machine, said pad comprising a mass of steel wool constituting an inherently resilient compressible filler, a
cover overlymg the top portion thereof, and a multiplicity of coil springs anchored in said filler, the lower coils of said springs pro ectin g beyond the bottom of the filler, said sprlngs constituting supplemental res1l1ent means to cooperate with the inherently resilient filler to add to the elasticity of the complete pad.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.
CECIL R. HEIGHES.
