ABSTRACT:
A simplified apparatus for centering and spreading laundry articles on the conveyor of a machine automatically feeding such articles to a commercial laundry iron and comprising lead and trailing carriages having clipping apparatus for gripping adjacent corners of such articles, a track to convey the carriages, a belt driven by a motor for moving the carriages on the track. The lead carriage is directly affixed to the first run of the belt, the trailing carriage idles with respect to the second run of the belt. Upon activation of the motor, the lead carriage moves down the track drawing the laundry article along the front of the inlet end of the conveyor. An abutment affixed on the second run of the belt contacts the trailing carriage creating tension in the leading edge of the laundry article. Movement of the abutment with respect to the second run of the belt is made adjustable so that the position of the line about which the articles are centered may be varied.
