Description

Support Pour fer ä repasser. L'objet de Finvention est un support pour fer ä repasser. Holder For ä iron. The object of the invention is a support for an iron.

Ledit support est earaet6ris6 en ce que, comportant au moins un organe suseeptible d'Mre d#plac# par le poids du èr, il lui est adjoint des moyens transmeitant mkanique- ment ce mouvement ä un interrupteur 6lee- trique interea16 dans le eireuit du fer et placä hors du support, Iequel ne contient, de ce fait, aucune piAce sous tension. Said support is earaet6ris6 in that, comprising at least one susceptible organ of mre d#plac# by the weight of the èr, it is associated with means transmitting mechanically this movement ä a switch 6lee - rod interea16 in the circuit of the iron and placed outside the support, which therefore does not contain any live parts.

Le dessin annex# repr6sente deux fonnes d'exAeution du support faisant Fobjet de Pin- vention, donn6es ä, titre d'exemples, et une variante. The attached drawing shows two embodiments of the support which is the subject of the invention, given ä, as examples, and one variant.

La fig. 1 se raupporte ä la premi & e forme d'exAcution, la fig. 2ä la variante, et les fig. 3 ä6 ä la seconde forme d'exAcution. fig. 1 relates ä to the first form of execution, fig. 2ä the variant, and figs. 3 ä6 ä the second form of execution.

Le support repr6sent6 ä la fig. 1 se com- pose d'un cadre 1 dest-in6 ä Ure pos' sur une surface quelconque, par exemple sur une table, ce eadre 6tant surmont6 d'un plateau 2 suseeptible de baseuler autour de charnikes 3 sous Feffet du poids d'un fer ä repasser 4 pos6 sur ledit plateau. Un ressort 5 tend ä ramener constamment le plateau dans la posi- tion la plus 61ev6e de son extr6mit6 libre 6, une butk 7 limitant laetion dudit ressort. The support represents ä fig. 1 consists of a frame 1 destined-in6 ä Placed on any surface, for example on a table, this eadre 6tant surmounted by a plate 2 capable of basing around de charnikes 3 under the effect of the weight of an iron ä placed 4 on said plateau. A spring 5 tends ä to constantly bring the plate back to the highest position of its free end 6, a stopper 7 limiting laetion of said spring.

L'extrömit6 libre 6 du plateau 2 est relke A une extrbmitb d'un Mble 8 coulissant dans urie gaine 9, elle-mAme solidaire du eadre 1 par Fune de ses extr6mit6s. The free end 6 of the plate 2 is linked A to one end of a member 8 sliding in a sheath 9, itself attached to the frame 1 by one of its ends.

L'autre extr6mit6 de la gaine 9 est soli- daire d'une #boite 10 contenant un interrup- teur ä mereure 11 et Fautre extr6mit6 du Able 8 est attaclAe ä un levier 12 permettant de faire pivoter Finterrupteur ä mereure 11 autour d'un pivot 13. La boite 10 est munie d'une fiche mäle 14 permettant de la relier ä un r6seau et comporte elle-mgme des organes femelles 15 nöcessaires ä assurer sa liaison avee une fielie mgle 16 d'un cordon 17 d'ali- mentation du èr ä repasser. The other end of the sheath 9 is attached to a #box 10 containing a switch ä switch 11 and the other end of the cable 8 is attached ä to a lever 12 allowing the switch ä to be pivoted ä to the left 11 around a pivot 13. The box 10 is fitted with a male plug 14 allowing it to be connected ä to a network and comprises itself of the female organs 15 necessary ä to ensure its connection with a male part 16 of a cord 17 ä st power supply iron.

Les connexions sont telles que de la fiche 14 le couraut passeä la fiche 16, en traver- sant Finterrupteur 11, et le cäble 8 et la gaine 9 ont des longueurs relatives telles que, lorsque le plateau 2 est soulev6, Vinterrup- teur 11 est ferm#, tandis que, lorsque le pla,- teau 2 est abaiss#, done le Able 8 tir6 vers le bas en 6gard ä la gaine 9, Vinterrupteur 11 est ouvert. The connections are such that from plug 14 the current passesä to plug 16, through switch 11, and cable 8 and the sheath 9 have relative lengths such that, when the plate 2 is raised, the switch 11 is closed, whereas, when plate 2 is lowered, so Able 8 is pulled down towards ä sheath 9, Vswitch 11 is open.

Le but de cette disposition est de limiter la consommation de courant ei l'6chauffe- inent du fer pendant le repassage. D#s que le èr est pos' sur son support, le courant est interrompu, tandis qu'il est rkabli d6s que le fer est 61oign# de, son support, c'est- A-dire Us qu'on Futilise pour l'op6ration de repassage proprement dite. D'autre part, la transmission mäcanique ä disfance du mou- vement du plateau 2 permet d61oigner du support touies les parties sous tension, ce qui pr6sente un avaniage par le fait que le sup- port peut tr#s faeilement Atre moui 116 lors- qu'on humeete le linge en cours de repassage, lorsque par ce fait le èr lui-mAme est humide ou Ugage de la vapeur, de mAme que le linge. The purpose of this provision is to limit the consumption of current ei 6chauffe- inent iron during ironing. As soon as the iron is placed on its support, the current is interrupted, while it is restored as soon as the iron is removed from its support, that is the actual ironing operation. On the other hand, the mechanical transmission ä of the movement of the plate 2 makes it possible to move away from the support all the parts under tension, which presents an advantage in that the support can be It is easily wet 116 when the laundry is moistened during ironing, when the iron itself is therefore damp or exposed to steam, as is the laundry.

11 est 6vident que Finterrupteur peut Atre d'un type quelconque. Dans le cas dkrit d'un interrupteur ä mereure, il est nkessaire que colui-e,i occupe une position de fonetionne- ment pr6d6termin6e, quelle que soit la, posi- tion de la fiche mäle 14 en liaison avee le r6seau. C'est pour cette raison que ladite fielle et la boite 10 sont reli6es entre elles par un organe souple 18 permettant de placer la boite dans sa position de fünctionnement db- termin#e. Dans le cas d'un interrupteur fone- tio,nnant dans toutes les positions, on peut supprimer ladite liaison souple. 11 is obvious that the switch can be of any type. In the case described of a switch ä, it is necessary that it occupies a predetermined operating position, whatever the position of the male plug 14 in connection to the network. It is for this reason that said string and the box 10 are interconnected by a flexible member 18 allowing the box to be placed in its determined operating position. e. In the case of a phone switch, nnant in all positions, said flexible connection can be omitted.

La bdite 10 peut Atre comp16tk par un dispositif de signalisa.tion quelconque, m6ca- nique ou 6leetrique, par exemple lumineux, permettant de se rendre compte de la posi- tion de Finterrupteur et de savoir si le fer chauffe au non. The device 10 can be supplemented by any signaling device, mechanical or electrical, for example a light, making it possible to ascertain the position of the switch and to know whether the iron heating to no.

11 peut Atre avantageux de relier la gaine 9 et le cordon 17 entre eux au moyen de pinees 19 et sur au moins une partie de la longueur de ces deux organes. 11 may be advantageous to connect the sheath 9 and the cord 17 to each other by means of pins 19 and on at least part of the length of these two organs.

Enfin, et pour permettre de faire chauf- fer le èr au Ubut du repassage, le support est muni d'un clispositif permettant d'y poser le fer saus que le couraut 6leetrique soit inter- rompu, Dans la forme d'exkution selon In. fig. 1, RTI ID="0002.0281" WI="3" HE="4" LX="1239" LY="198"> ce dispositif se compose d'un arceau 20 plae6 ä Pintkieur du eadre 1, pivotant autour d'un axe 21 et reposant normalement dans une n-orge 22 de la plaque '22. Un petit levier de commande ext6rieur 23 permet de relever Farceau 20 dans la position 20', dans Iaquelle le fer ä repasser prendra alors appui sur le Plateau 2, en 24, en arri#re du pi-vot 3 et sur l'arceaii, de sorte que le Plateau ne sera pas abaiss#. Pour ramener Farceau dans sa posi- tion primitive, il suffit par exemple de saisir le fer ei, au moyen de celui-ei, de pousser Parceau en avant, de mani#re ä le faire retom- ber dans sa, position de Upart. Finally, and to enable the iron to be heated at the end of the ironing, the support is provided with a device allowing the iron to be placed on it unless the electric current is interrupted. In the form of execution according to In. fig. 1, RTI ID="0002.0281" WI="3" HE="4" LX="1239" LY="198"> this device consists of a 20 plae6 ä arch Pintkieur of the eadre 1, pivoting around an axis 21 and normally resting in a n-barley 22 of the plate '22. A small control lever outside 23 allows Farceau 20 to be raised to position 20', in which the iron ä will then rest on Plate 2, at 24, behind the foot -vote 3 and on the arcaii, so the Board will not be lowered#. To bring Farceau back to his original position, it suffices, for example, to seize the iron ei and, by means of it, to push Parceau forward, so as ä to make him fall back. in his, position of Upart.

La. fig. 2, repAsente une variante d'un dispositif de ce genre, avee un arceau 25 que Fon peut relever sous le Plateau 2, dans la position dessink et de manike ä rendre ce plateau immobile. Dans ce cas, le pivot 26 du plateau peut Atre plao6 tout pr#s de l'extr6mit6 de celui-ei. The. fig. 2, represents a variant of a device of this kind, with a hoop 25 that Fon can raise under Tray 2, in the drawing position and manike ä to make this stationary platform. In this case, the pivot 26 of the plate can be placed very close to the end of the plate.

D'autre part, on peut prendre la prkau- tion de munir la fiche 14 d'oreilles 27, per- mettant d'attacher cette fielie ä Forga.ne du rAseau avee Iequel elle coop#re, eeci dans le but d'6viter la cliute de Finterrupteur sur le sol au cas oü une trop forte traction exerck sur le cordon 17 viendrait ä s6parer la fiche dudit organe du r6seau. On peut 6galement #viter cette disposition en pr6voya.nt une fiche avee des branches trAs 61astiques. On the other hand, one can take the precaution of equipping the plug 14 with ears 27, allowing to attach this plug ä Forga.ne of the rAseau with which it cooperates, in order to avoid the switch falling on the ground in the event that too much traction exerted on the cord 17 would come ä to separate the file of the said network organ. This arrangement can also be avoided by providing a plug with very elastic branches.

11 est 6vident qu'au lieu de fiches, telles que 14 et16, on pourrait utiliser tout autre moyen de connexion et qu'on pourrait, en partieulier, remplacer la fic'he 14 pa.r un bou- chon ä vis. 11 is obvious that instead of plugs, such as 14 and 16, one could use any other means of connection and that one could, in particular, replace the plug 'he 14 by a screw cap ä.

Daus la forme d'exkution selan les fig. 3 ä 6, les m6thodes de fonotionnement du sup- port preprement dit en k-ard ä Vinfluenee du poids du èr sont les mAmes que celles d6erit,es pr6c6demme-p . 11 y a 6galement un eadre 28 suppo#rtant un plateau 29 oseillant autour d'un axe 30, ainsi qu'un arceau 31 suseeptible d'Atre plae6 de mani & e ä emp & eher Paction du poids du èr. In the form of execution according to figs. 3 ä 6, the methods of operating the support directly said in k-ard ä The influence of the weight of the er are the same as those derit,es above-p. 11 y also has a frame 28 supporting a tabletop 29 swaying around an axis 30, as well as a hoop 31 suseeptible d'Atre plae6 de mani & e ä emp & eher Paction of the weight of the èr.

Ce qui difföre, c'est en part-iculier la dis- position de Finterrupteur et de sa, commande. Cette dernière est produite au moyen d'un câble8 coulissant dans une gaine32, la distance sépara-ut le cadre28 d'une boilie 33 contenant un interrupteur étant relative ment courte. La bo4te 33 est faite de deux co quilles en masse isolante moulée, et reposeà proximité du cadre28, soit sur la table où repose ce dernier, soit suspendu par-dessus le bord de celle-ci. What differs is in particular the arrangement of the switch and its control. The latter is produced by means of a cable8 sliding in a sheath32, the distance between the frame28 of a boilie 33 containing a switch being relatively short. The box 33 is made of two molded insulating mass shells, and rests near the frame28, either on the table where this last, is suspended over the edge of it.

La fig. 6 montre cet interrupteurà plus grande échelle, lune des coquilles étant enlevée. fig. 6 shows this switch on a larger scale, with one of the shells removed.

Le courant arrive par 'un conducteur 34 et se rend au fer par un conducteur35. Les deux conducteurs ont un fil commun36 et un fil interrompu en liaison avec les bornes37, 38 de deux lames conductrices"élastiques 39, 40 électriquement reliées entre elles par des contacts 41, 42.A ces lames sont fixés des g (r alets 43, 44 en matière isolante ou en métal et entre lesquels passe une tige 45 se termi nant par un renflement 46, cette tige étant également soit en matière isolante, soit en métal, selon la, matière choisie pour les galets et pour les prolongaticn#s des lames les sup portant, la conditionà remplirétant -d'éviter en tous les cas un passage po & sible de cou rant par ces organes. ou dans le câble8 qui est reliéà la tige 45 par une prolongation 47 de cette dernière, une bride intermédiaire 48 servant de point, d'appuià un ressort 49 dont le but est de maintenir les divers or ganes du dispositif dans la position repré- sent6e. The current comes through a conductor 34 and goes to the iron through a conductor35. The two conductors have a common wire36 and an interrupted wire in connection with the terminals37, 38 of two "elastic conductive blades 39, 40 electrically connected to each other by contacts 41, 42.A these blades are fixed g (r alets 43, 44 made of insulating material or metal and between which passes a rod 45 terminating in a bulge 46, this rod also being either of insulating material or of metal, according to the, material chosen for the rollers and for the extensions of the blades supporting them, the conditionto being fulfilled being - in all cases to avoid a possible passage of current through these organs. the cable8 which is connectedto the rod 45 by an extension 47 of the latter, an intermediate flange 48 serving as a point, of supportto a spring 49 whose purpose is to maintain the various organs of the device in the position represented.

Lorsque, le poids du fer abaîsse le plateau 29, le câble8 est soumisà une traction dans le sens de la.flèche 50 de la, fig. 6. La tige 45 suit le mouvement et son renflement 46, venant se placer entre les galets, oblige ceux-ci ainsi que, les lames3,9, 40 et les con tacts 41, 41-) à se séparer. Le courant est alors interrompu. When the weight of the iron lowers the platform 29, the cable8 is subjectedto a pull in the direction of the arrow. 50 of the, fig. 6. The rod 45 follows the movement and its bulge 46, coming to be placed between the rollers, obliges them as well as the blades 3,9, 40 and the contacts 41, 41-) to separate. The current is then interrupted.

L'aetionnement -du câble a lieu au moyen d'un dispositif consistant en un levier51 placé sous la plaque29, mobile autour d'un pivot 52 et se terminant par un arc 53 sur lequel le câble s'enroule et se déroule lorsque le levier oseille. Passant dans une pièce per- forée 54 et maintenue par une vis 55, l'ex- trémitée ducâble est fixéede façon réglable au levier51. Ce levier peut comporter un res!sort de rappel propre pour soulever la, pla que29 lorsqu'elle est déchargée, un tel res sort peut également être. prévu sous la, pla que ou bien on peut encore -utiliser la ten- sien provenant du ressort 49 de l'interrup teur et se transmettant par l'intermédiaire du câble. The aetionnement -du cable takes place by means of a device consisting of a lever51 placed under the plate29, movable around a pivot 52 and ending in an arc 53 on which the cable winds and unwinds when the lever swings. Passing through a perforated part 54 and held by a screw 55, the end of thecable is fixedadjustable to the lever51. This lever may comprise a proper return spring to lift the plate29 when it is unloaded, such a spring may also be. provided under the, plate or else one can still use the tension coming from the spring 49 of the switch and being transmitted via the cable.

L'arceau31 6e termine latéralement par un bloc5,6, -de forme spéciale, constituant une sorte de pédale sur laquelle il suffit d'ap puyer avec la pointe du fer pour faire oscâl- ler l'arceau -de la position en traîts, mixtesà la position en traits pleins de la fig. 4. The 31 6th arch ends laterally in a block5.6, -of a special shape, constituting a kind of pedal on which you just have to press down with the toe of the iron to make the hoop oscillate -from the position in lines, mixedto the position in full lines of fig. 4.

Il est évident, d'autre part, qu'il n'e#st pas nécessairede relierà l'interrupteur les conducteurs de, la prise de courant et du fer, cet interrupteur pouvant parfaitement bien comporter des organes mâle#s et femelles, per mettant d'effectuer une, liaison amovible des- dits organes. It is obvious, on the other hand, that it is not necessaryto connectto the switch the conductors of, the power outlet and iron, this switch can perfectly well include male #s and female bodies, allowing to perform a removable connection of said bodies.
