EQUIPMENT TO FLATTEN AND IRON SEAMS EFFECTED ON FABRICS BY SEWING MACHINES, FOR CLOTHING INDUSTRIES

摘要

A device for flattening and ironing a seam zone between two layers of fabric comprises guides for moving the two layers of fabric into coplanar relationship and for moving edge portions of the layers beyond the seam into coplanar relationship. Moisture, for example in the form of steam, is supplied to the seam zone, and the fabric is ironed in the above configuration by, for example, a heated roller.
