Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an ironing board with heated table particularly for domestic use.
  • steam generators have long been present on the market which are constituted by boiler inside which an electric resistor is provided which has the function of heating the water up to its vaporization, so as to generate a certain amount of steam which is then sent to an iron or to a similar user appliance.
  • ironing board are known, mostly for professional uses, which have in their interior an electric resistor which has the function of heating the ironing table so as to improve the ironing effect.
  • the aim proposed by the invention is indeed to eliminate the above described disadvantages by providing an ironing board with heated table which allows to simplify all the apparatus required for the ironing operations, eliminating the conventional boiler for the generation of steam, though a considerable amount of steam is naturally available for the ironing operations.
  • a particular object of the invention is to provide an ironing board which is capable of allowing a substantially instantaneous generation of steam with the consequent advantage of performing the heating only for the part of steam which is actually used, contrarily to what occurs with conventional boilers, which require the advance heating of the entire mass of water.
  • Still another object of the present invention is to provide an ironing board which allows to eliminate all the particles of water or humidity which may be present in the steam, allowing the use of a dry steam which is better suitable for ironing operations.
  • Not least object of the present invention is to provide an ironing board with heated table which, by virtue of its peculiar constructive characteristics, is capable of giving the greatest assurances of reliability and safety in use.
  • an ironing board with heated table particularly for domestic use comprising a table connected to a supporting framework and having a box-like configuration, in said table there being accommodated a heating resistor, characterized in that it comprises a water vaporization duct drawing from a water tank and extending closely proximate to said resistor provided in said table, said duct leading to a user appliance, and being provided with a control valve.
  • the ironing board comprises a table, generally indicated by the reference numeral 1, which in a per se known manner is supported by a supporting framework which is preferably but not necessarily constituted by a foldable stand 2.
  • the table 1 as indicated in figure 1, has a box-like configuration and contains in its interior an electric resistor 10 which can have a substantially U-shaped configuration and extends at the periphery of the table or may also possibly have a W-shaped configuration.
  • the table is upwardly closed by a cover 11 above which the conventional flannel 12 is applied on which a cloth 13 is superimposed.
  • a vaporization duct is provided, generally indicated by the reference numeral 20, and extends closely proximate to the electric resistor 10 so as to perform the vaporization of the water directly when the water flows inside the vaporization duct which is continuously heated by the electric resistor 10, which is in turn controlled by a variable-adjustment thermostat.
  • the resistor 10 may be placed to the side of the duct 20 or, possibly, it may be positioned directly inside said duct 20.
  • Said vaporization duct 20 is connected to a water tank 23, at one end, with the interposition of a one-way valve 21 and of a delivery pump 22; the water tank 23 being advantageously connected laterally to the ironing table.
  • the vaporization duct 20 is associated with a maximum-pressure discharge valve 30 which has an output branch 31 which returns into the tank and a main branch 32 which, with the interposition of an electric control valve 33, is connected to a user appliance constituted for example by an iron 25, as in this case.
  • a condensate separator indicated at 40 in figure 3, which has an inner chamber or cavity 41 connected to an inlet 42 for the steam arriving from the tube 20 and an outlet 43 for the exit of the produced steam towards the electric valve 33, during the normal steps of use.
  • the separator furthermore has a maximum-pressure inlet, indicated at 44, which returns to the tank the excess-­pressure steam.
  • an auxiliary resistor is provided, indicated at 45, which has the function of vaporizing any particle of condensate, so that the steam which is fed into the iron is always dry and therefore such as to have the best characteristics for use.
  • an aspirator is furthermore provided, indicated at 50, which is accommodated in the lower part of the body 1 and is actuatable by means of a pedal control, indicated at 60 in figure 1 and supported by the stand 2. Furthermore, in the place of the pedal, an infrared-ray head may be provided or possibly the control for aspiration may be executed by means of a second pushbutton located on the handle of the iron, next to the one for the steam.
  • This arrangement has the advantage of providing a cold water tank, eliminating the conventional boiler for steam generation and having a single electric resistor which performs both the heating of the table and the vaporization of the water
  • This arrangement furthermore has the advantage of instantly generating the steam, since only the water in transit, that is to say only the amount of water which is introduced by the pump, is vaporized.
  • the materials employed may be any according to the requirements.
