Claim 0:
1. A pressing machine that applies heat and pressure to a press object transported in a first direction, the pressing machine comprising:
a first die having a first heater;
a second die having a second heater, the second die being disposed above the first die;
a frame with an inclined surface;
a support member slidably mounted on the inclined surface of the frame and supporting the first die and the second die; and
an actuator operatively coupled to the support member to move the support member together with the first die and the second die along the inclined surface of the frame between a first position and a second position, the second position being located in a second direction from the first position, the second direction intersecting the first direction, wherein
the first position is a position at which the first die and the second die apply heat and pressure to the press object,
the second position is a position at which the first die and the second die do not face the press object, and
the first die and the second die move away from the press object while moving diagonally and downwardly when the actuator moves the support member together with the first die and the second die along the inclined surface of the frame from the first position to the second position.
