Patent attributes
A heat press can include a frame, a first lower platen, a second lower platen, an upper platen, a press mechanism, a shuttle mechanism, and a heating element. The lower platens can be supported by the frame. The press mechanism can be coupled to the upper platen and operable to move the upper platen between open and closed positions. In the open position, the upper platen can be spaced apart from the lower platens by a greater distance than when in the closed position. The shuttle mechanism can be supported by the frame and can move the press mechanism linearly between a first position and a second position. In the first position, the upper platen can be located above the first lower platen. In the second position, the upper platen can be located above the second lower platen. The heating element can be configured to heat the upper platen.
