ABSTRACT:
Shirt-like garments can be stretched from the inside and pressed with an inflatable body that has a trunk part and two sleeve segments by inflating the inflatable body. Since the sleeves of the garments have different cross sections, deformation of the trunk section can take place in the area of the connecting points between the trunk section and the sleeve segments when the sleeves are small. On the other hand, if the sleeves are large, insufficient tensioning the sleeve segments can occur, thereby leading to bad pressing results. In order to be able to press a wider range of different cross sections of sleeves, the cross section of the sleeve segments is smaller in the connecting points than in the area adjacent the connecting points. Advantageously, the sleeve segments expand beyond the connecting points to their maximum cross section within a very small area.
