ABSTRACT:
A cloth condensing unit is disclosed capable of forming a condensed portion of a piece of cloth, the condensed portion having a central area which is more condensed than the ends of the condensed portion, and a system for permanently maintaining the cloth in the condensed form. The cloth condensing unit can comprise different embodiments, for example, a plurality of spring loaded plates having a plurality of pins projecting vertically upward, wherein the plates are capable of being condensed in a vice. In another embodiment, the cloth condensing unit can consist of a rubber sponge having a gripping surface formed of embedded emery or a plurality of very small pins. When the surface is compressed into a specified area, the cloth positioned upon the surface of the semioval sponge is condensed. In another embodiment of the present invention, a semioval balloon-type device could be employed having an exterior gripping surface. When cloth is securely attached to the surface, and the balloon is deflated, the cloth will become condensed. A method for carrying out the operation of condensing the cloth is also disclosed.
