Description

Steaming dummy for finished steaming of

Sweaters, Jackets, and Similar Garments The invention relates to a steaming dummy for the final steaming of sweaters, jackets and similar clothing, mainly made of knitted fabric, consisting of a perforated hollow body for the Body and, if necessary, two swivel arms for the sleeves of the sweater, etc.

Well-known steaming dolls of this type, in which after winding one Pullovers etc. Steam into the perforated hollow body and through the one sitting on it Sweater etc. is blown, after which the sweater etc. is cooled with partly cooling air have the disadvantage that they can only be used for certain sweater sizes are.

For ironing devices that work with a so-called '31ih shirt, on which the sweater etc. are pulled up and then inserted between heated press plates there is a certain possibility of adapting to different sizes. So is it is known (DGbM 74 10 664), support elements for the shoulders of the flat shirt and expansion elements to be provided for its side panels. When the elements are retracted, the The item of clothing to be ironed is pulled onto the shirt and then a Spreading the elements apart. These Arrangement serves primarily Line to enable the garment to be comfortably slipped onto the bloated shirt. To a certain extent, different garment sizes can also be placed on one iron such a device.

The object of the invention is to provide the at the beginning with steaming dolls named type, so the body of a sweater, etc. on a perforated Hollow body is all drawn and then steam from the hollow body through the sweater etc. flows, and this is finally cooled by cooling air, the hollow body adjustable in such a way that the steaming doll for sweaters etc. is largely different sizes can be used.

This object is achieved according to the invention in that the hollow body the muffler is separated from each other by a neck shoulder part, a pair of shoulder parts, a pair of side parts and a front and back part each on: #is, of which the Shoulder parts and the side parts to adapt to different sizes of sweaters etc. in opposite directions inwards and outwards, e.g. by means of Bowden zu ", + aaren adjustable while the front and back panels are attached to the frame of the muffler as well as the side parts overlap, and the neck shoulder part overlaps the shoulder parts and s.B. is adjustable in height by means of an adjusting spindle.

This solution # is based on the knowledge that by building it up of the hollow body of the damping dummy from the four parts mentioned and by independent Adjustment of three of these parts is possible, the hollow body of the damping dummy within a wide range of sizes of sweaters, etc.

without changing from the smallest to the largest Size result in any disadvantages in the steaming and cooling process.

Another essential feature is that of the shoulder parts by means of a pair of Bowden cables and, on the other hand, the side parts above and below by means of Each pair of Bowden cables can be moved in opposite directions.

This has the advantage that the chest width and waist width of the hollow body can be set independently of one another. This is an optimal Adaptation of the hollow body of the steaming doll to the respective size and shape of the sweater etc. achieved.

In contrast to the known ironing device (DGb # 74 10 664) the hollow body of the damping dummy according to the invention normally does not apply to everyone On pulling a sweater, etc., it is drawn in and expanded again, but it is a setting made for a greater or lesser number of sweaters, etc., and a readjustment only takes place when one batch of sweaters, etc., others Size and shape all of the steaming doll is to be dealt with.

The drawing illustrates schematically the blueprint of a steaming dummy according to the invention in a perspective view.

The frame 1 inside the hollow body of the damping dummy is more U-shaped Box frame formed with a web 2 lying on top and legs 3, 4 protruding downwards. On the web 2 sits a sleeve 5, in which a hollow pin 6 in the vertical direction Is longitudinally displaceable, sitting in the middle of a neck shoulder part 7 downwards protrudes. In the threaded hollow pin 6, a spindle 8 is used, the lower The end is rotatably mounted on the web 2. By turning the spindle 8 by means of a hand button 9, the neck shoulder part 7 can be moved in a vertical direction can be set, as indicated by the double arrow 10.

The bow-shaped neck shoulder part 7 overlaps with its ends Je a shoulder part 11, 12. These two shoulder parts 11, 12 are telescopic guides 13, 14 on the legs 3 and 4 of the frame 1 to the outside and inside appropriate. A pair of Bowden cables 15, 16 is used to move it. The souls of the two Bowden cables 15, 16 are each on the inside of the sliding shoulder parts 11, 12, while their covers are attached to the legs 3, 4 of the frame 1 are.

Adjacent to the shoulder parts 11, 12 in a downward direction are two side parts 17, 18 are provided, which fit the lower ends of the shoulder parts 11, 12 in the shape of a groove are trained. These side parts 17, 18 are on the frame 1 by upper and lower Telescopic guides 19, 20 or 21, 22 attached so that they are opposite the frame 1 can also be moved outwards and inwards. To move are again Bowden cable pairs 23, 24 and 25, 26 are provided through which the upper sections and the lower sections of the side parts 17, 18 extended or retracted independently of one another can be.

On the frame of the muffler is below the frame 1, a cross bar 27 is provided on which the sleeves of the Bowden cable pairs 15, 16; 23, 24 and 25, 26 are fastened, while their souls running further downwards are in pairs are articulated by means of U-pieces 28, 2'3, 30 on adjusting levers 31, 32, 33.

These three adjusting levers 31, 32, 33 are on their inside end mounted on a common horizontal axis 34, which is in the frame of the damping dummy is arranged (only indicated). Each adjusting lever 31, 32, 33 is at the outer end provided with a threaded sleeve 35 (only shown for the adjusting lever 33). This threaded socket 35 is with a transverse hole on a vertically stretched in the frame of the damping dummy Wire 36 led to the upper attachment of the wire 36 is indicated in the drawing). A handle 37 is screwed into the thread of the threaded sleeve n). By panning of the handle 37 up and down, a pair of Bowden cables is operated in each case, such as indicated by arrows 38, so that the shoulder parts 11, 12, and the upper and lower sections of the side parts 17, 18 independently of one another to the outside or can be moved inside.

By tightening the handle 37, the adjusting levers 31, 32, 33 to be clamped on their wire 36, so that the setting selected in each case the shoulder parts 11, 12 and the side parts 17, 18 is secured.

A front part is used to complete the hollow body of the muffler 39 (only partially shown in the drawing) and a suitably trained one Back part (not visible on the drawing).

These two parts are attached to the frame 1 of the damping dummy and overlap the side parts 17, 18 as far as their adjustability corresponds.

All parts of the hollow body of the muffler are made of perforated Material, for example brass sheet or stainless steel sheet. The perforation is only indicated at individual points in the drawing.

With the described structure of the steaming dummy and the adjustability of the individual parts it is possible Sweaters etc. of all sizes to treat on the steaming manikin.

Another setting of the hollow body of the damping dummy compared to the drawn representation is indicated by dash-dotted lines.
