ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for pressing a pair of trousers includes a steam supply manifold with an inlet and an outlet end and right and left leg steam ducts which are in communication with the outlet end of the main steam supply manifold. The right and left leg steam ducts are adapted to introduce steam into the right and left legs, respectively, of a pair of trousers. An expandable waist clamp assembly is secured to the right and left leg ducts and is expandable between a first position which allows the trousers to be easily introduced over the assembly, and a second expanded position which securely retains and helps to shape the trousers during the pressing operation. Elongate right and left leg support members are provided with a length sufficient to accept the legs of the trousers and can be pivotally mounted to the right and left leg ducts so as to pivot between a first horizontal position which allows the trousers to be easily mounted onto the apparatus and a second vertical position which is adapted for pressing of the trousers. Right and left leg trouser shaping assemblies can be provided and can be secured to the right and left leg support members. The shaping assemblies are adapted for insertion into the legs of the trousers and are expandable between a first position which allows easy insertion and a second position where the shaping assemblies engage and shape the trousers.
