Abstract

A wrinkle removal system. The wrinkle removal system includes a first jaw connected to a second jaw via a hinge having a spring, wherein the spring biases the first jaw against the second jaw in a closed position. A weighted member is removably secured to each jaw. The weighted members may be interchanged with heavier or lighter weighted members depending on the fabric or the type of garment to which the wrinkle removal system is secured. The wrinkle removal system is securable to a portion of a garment such as a shirt sleeve in order to return a garment that has been shrunk in a dryer to its original form and shape. It may also be used to prevent wrinkles from forming when the garment is hung in a closet or other storage area.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
I claim: 
     
         1 ) A wrinkle removal system, comprising:
 a first jaw;   a second jaw;   a first handle disposed at a midpoint of the first jaw;   a second handle disposed at a midpoint of the second jaw;   a hinge comprising a spring connects the first jaw to the second jaw;   wherein the spring biases the first jaw and the second jaw against each another in a closed position;   a first weighted member removably secured to an inner side of the first jaw; and   a second weighted member removably secured to an inner side of the second jaw.   
     
     
         2 ) The wrinkle removal system of  claim 1 , wherein the first jaw and the second jaw are symmetrical. 
     
     
         3 ) The wrinkle removal system of  claim 1 , wherein the first jaw and the second jaw are substantially rectangular. 
     
     
         4 ) The wrinkle removal system of  claim 1 , wherein the first weighted member comprises a first magnet and the second weighted member comprises a second magnet, and wherein the first jaw and the second jaw are each composed of a magnetized material configured to attract the first magnet and the second magnet. 
     
     
         5 ) The wrinkle removal system of  claim 1 , wherein the first weighted member and the second weighted member comprise a plurality of ridges thereon. 
     
     
         6 ) The wrinkle removal system of  claim 1 , wherein the first weighted member and the second weighted member are composed of a non-slip rubber material. 
     
     
         7 ) The wrinkle removal system of  claim 1 , wherein each of the first handle and the second handle includes a first end having a first width and a second end having a second width, wherein the first width is greater than the second width. 
     
     
         8 ) The wrinkle removal system of  claim 1 , wherein actuation of the first handle and the second handle towards each other causes the first jaw and the second jaw to move away from each other. 
     
     
         9 ) The wrinkle removal system of  claim 1 , wherein the first weighted member and the second weighted member extends laterally across the first jaw and the second jaw, respectively. 
     
     
         10 ) The wrinkle removal system of  claim 1 :
 wherein the first weighted member and the second weighted member comprise a first set;   a second set comprising a third weighted member and a fourth weighted member;   wherein the second set is heavier and interchangeable with the first set.
