ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for accurately and fully finishing or pressing garments is shown that employs a motor-driven air blower whose motor has automatic braking means for substantially instantly stopping it when de-energized, and that has an electrical heater for air being supplied by the blower to the atmosphere of a permeable bag along which a garment is to be positioned. Side-mounted pairs of upper and lower creasing blades are operated to expand and contract and are provided with electrical heating means along their lengths for directly applying creasing heat. Steam is supplied to a piping system which extends along and within the permeable bag for both applying heat indirectly and applying periodic bursts of steam directly to the inside of the garment being finished. Steam from the indirect heat application is then passed through a heat exchanger for applying its residual heat to preliminarily heat air being supplied by the blower.
