Abstract: The shirt press of the present invention is formed to comprise a collar iron buck on which a collar is mounted while being expanded and a press iron for depressing against the buck. The upper surface of the buck corresponds to a central part of the collar and is notched in an inverse triangle shape. The right and left positions correspond to the collar ends and are placeable on left and right buck portions into a horizontal surface. The collar is mounted on the buck and a receiving plate, which is arranged above the upper-notched surface with the height thereof being set to the left and right buck portions, supports a central portion. When the press iron is lowered the ends of the collar are pressed and pulled out such that the iron surface of the press is formed into a flat surface.

Abstract: This invention relates to an apparatus for extending the side portions of the shirts put on the dummy toward a side. An object of the present invention enables the side portions of the shirts to be protruded toward the side strictly in compliance with the curved lines by a simple configuration without increasing its cost and further enables the body part of the shirts to be tensioned. The present invention is comprised of side pressing members arranged longitudinally at both sides of the dummy, and driving devices for protruding the side pressing members toward the sides of the dummy. The side pressing members are formed into a bow-like shape with their concave surfaces being faced to the side portions of the dummy. In addition, flexible wire members abutted against the inner surfaces of the side portions of the shirts are applied in tension in a chord-like manner at an upper end and a lower end of each of the side pressing members.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a shirt pressing and finishing machine in which body buck assemblies are arranged upright between a pair of front and rear pressplates. The pressplates are provided with a metallic pipe having a superior thermal conduction through which steam is passed. The metallic pipe is contacted with the rear surface of each of the pressplates and bent into a state in which the front surface of each of the pressplates is heated uniformly. The pressplates are formed by sticking metallic plates from each other, and the rear surface of each of the pressplates is formed by a metallic plate having a superior thermal conductivity.
