Abstract
What may be termed a low-boy machine is provided with a side-positioned air-supplying blowing chamber, an air heating and upwardly and directing chamber-defining base part, a centrally disposed upright support post or column, an upright steam burst and heat-applying pipe assembly, an upper platform frame on the column that carries cap-finishing means, and a non-permeable bag positioned to extend upwardly between the base part and the upper frame to define a fluid-directing and mixing chamber for supplying steam and hot air to the cap-finishing means. The cap-finishing means has a pair of perforated cap-receiving and stretching parts through which steam and heated air is supplied to the inside of a fabric cap to be finished. The pair of parts have means for relatively moving them towards and away from each other to release and stretch a cap that is positioned thereon.
