Garment roller press
View Patent ↗A convenient wrinkle removing device that employs a pair of rollers to press unsightly and undesirable wrinkles from an article of clothing while in a hanging position. The device comprises a pair of rollers attached to a frame, the frame having a handle for the user to grip. A suspended garment is inserted between the rollers, which are capable of translation and free rotation. The rollers lock into an operating position, compressing the garment therebetween while still maintaining their free rotation. This operating position enables the device to press the garment as it is fed therethrough. A user passes the article of clothing through the rollers, wherein the device flattens and removes wrinkles that may exist in the fabric of the garment. A heating element may be provided to improve the pressing operation, while clips are provided to control the garment as it is being pressed.
