  • Patent number: 4786351
    Abstract: A machine for laminating fabric (123) to open cell cushion foam (124) while forming design lines in the foam is disclosed. The machine comprises a top hollow die (21) having perforations (38) and a complementary, hollow bottom die (54) which also has perforations (130). Hot melt adhesive (125) is interleaved between fabric (123) and foam (124). Top die (21) is preheated to just below the melt point of adhesive (125); then dies (21) and (54) are closed against the layered workpiece, with top die (21) contacting the face of fabric (123). A shot of superheated steam, e.g., at 80 psig and 700.degree. F., is ejected from perforations (38) and (130) to melt adhesive (125). Then a vacuum is applied to the perforations to pull ambient air through the workpiece and cool it. The resolidified ashesive (125) holds foam (124) in its deformed shape and laminates fabric (123) to the foam.

  • Patent number: 4054209
    Abstract: An improved garment rack comprising a movable base and first and second hanger rods supported on a pair of stanchions which extend upwardly from the base, the second rod being adjustably disposed beneath the first rod between an upper position juxtaposed of the first rod to allow long garments to hang from the second rod and a position lower than the upper position so that relatively short garments can be hung from the first and second rods. Means are provided for releasably holding the second rod in the upper and lower positions.
