Ironers are provided with spiral wrappings for the ironer roll thereof and ironer belts which are subjected to significant stress during the ironing process. This leads to settling phenomena and to warpage in the known spiral wrappings and ironer belts, whereby the ironing quality is impaired. The object of the invention is to form the spiral wrapping and/or the ironer belt from a base layer and a non-woven fabric layer assigned to this base layer on at least one side. The non-woven fabric layer is preferably connected to the base layer by needling. The base layer forms a stable three-dimensional support layer for the non-woven fabric layer, whereby the ironer belt and/or the spiral wrapping may be effectively stabilized and as a result may be used for a longer period of time without settling phenomena and warpage.

An ironing machine (1), such as a cylinder ironer, is provided. The ironing machine (1) comprises a cylindrical body (3) having heating means (5) for heating of the cylindrical body (3) and at least one temperature sensor arrangement (7), arranged to be in contact with the cylindrical body (3) and to detect a temperature of the cylindrical body (3). The at least one temperature sensor arrangement (7) and the cylindrical body (3) are at least partly made of electrically conductive material. The ironing machine (1) comprises an electrical control system (9) configured to detect a degree of contact between the cylindrical body (3) and the at least one temperature sensor arrangement (7) by means of electricity, and generate a control signal indicative of the detected degree of contact.

A cloth spreading apparatus is capable of eliminating the troublesome work of pulling a cloth when the cloth is held by feeding chucks to reduce burden of the worker and operation time. A cloth spreading apparatus includes a pair of feeding chucks grasping adjacent corners of a cloth, a moving device for moving the pair of feeding chucks between a feeding position and a delivery position of the cloth to draw the cloth, and spreading chucks for receiving the cloth directly or indirectly from the pair of feeding chucks and spreading the cloth in a direction of separating the adjacent corners from each other. The moving device has separate moving trajectories corresponding to the respective feeding chucks so that the pair of feeding chucks can move between the feeding position and the delivery position independently of each other.

An ironing apparatus (100) comprises a rotating cylinder (11) and a burner assembly (2) comprising a main body (20) in which a passage (21) for a mixture of air and gas is defined. The main body comprises an outlet surface (22) in which a plurality of holes (220) are defined, through which the mixture of air and gas exits from the passage, wherein the passage is elongate-shaped, extends in a longitudinal direction inside said rotating cylinder and has a decreasing cross section along the longitudinal direction (x).
