Definitions

  • the invention relates to an electric steam iron comprising a housing the rear of which forms a heel and a soleplate heated by an electrical resistance, and which can occupy two positions, namely an ironing position for which it rests on the soleplate, either a rest position for which it rests on the heel, the sole having a partition forming with a closing plate a vaporization chamber which is supplied with water from a reservoir and which, on the one hand, is in communication with a steam distribution chamber having steam distribution openings to the outside, and, on the other hand, comprises a so-called descaling orifice opening into a rear part of the iron and blocked by shutter means mounted removable.
  • the sealing means consist of a plug and the descaling orifice is adapted to allow the introduction of a tool inside the vaporization chamber.
  • the user can thus using, for example, a screwdriver scrape the walls of the vaporization chamber in order to carry out a mechanical descaling (see for example document GB-A-2 010 927).
  • the disadvantage of these devices lies in the fact that, the user not seeing the lime deposit inside the chamber, scrapes hard and in a disorderly manner so that it does not cover the entire surface of the chamber, in particular, the front part of said chamber which is more difficult to access. Descaling is therefore imperfect.
  • the invention aims to remedy these drawbacks and, in particular, to produce an iron allowing easy and continuous descaling while being of low cost.
  • the sealing means comprise a removable receptacle for recovering the limestone communicating by a baffle with the vaporization chamber, so that the limestone present in the vaporization chamber falls into the receptacle in particular when the iron occupies its position. rest.
  • the lime recovery receptacle a continuous and automatic descaling of the vaporization chamber is obtained. Indeed, each time the user places the iron on his heel, the limestone plates formed in the vaporization chamber fall into the receptacle where they are stored until the user withdraws the receptacle to empty it. This prevents the limestone plates from passing through the distribution chamber and blocking the distribution openings. In addition, the user no longer needs a tool to ensure effective descaling.
  • the vaporization chamber can therefore have any shape with recesses and baffles usually used to obtain better vaporization since it is no longer necessary for the entire extent of said chamber to be accessible by a tool from the descaling orifice. .
  • this device can be adapted on existing soles, which represents the economy of a mold for the manufacturer.
  • the electric steam iron represented in FIGS. 1 and 2, comprises a housing 1, the rear of which forms a heel 2 and a sole 3 heated by an electrical resistance 4.
  • the iron can thus occupy two positions, namely a position of ironing for which it rests on the sole 3, ie a rest position (not shown) for which it rests on the heel 2.
  • the sole 3 has a partition 5 forming with a closure plate 6 a vaporization chamber 7 which is supplied in water from a reservoir 8 and which, on the one hand, is in communication with a steam distribution chamber 9 having steam distribution openings 10 to the outside, and, on the other hand, has a orifice 11 called descaling opening into a rear part of the iron and plugged by shutter means mounted removable.
  • the sealing means comprise a removable receptacle 12 for recovering limestone communicating by a baffle 13 with the vaporization chamber 7, so that the limestone present in the vaporization chamber 7 falls into the receptacle 12 in particular when the iron occupies its rest position.
  • the limestone plates present in the vaporization chamber 7 fall into the receptacle 12 where they are stored.
  • the limestone plates can also possibly enter the receptacle 12 in the ironing position thanks to the back and forth movement given to the iron by the user. Indeed, this movement causes waves in the vaporization chamber 7 which can extend beyond the baffle 13.
  • the receptacle 12 is made, for example, of a plastic material of the thermosetting type or of the thermoplastic type. In fact, it must be able to withstand the high temperature of the water coming from the vaporization chamber 7.
  • the plastic material has, in another embodiment, a certain degree of transparency such as a polyester. Thus, it allows the user to control the filling of the receptacle 12.
  • the closure plate 6 is commonly made of sheet metal. aluminum, the descaling orifice 11 is obtained by simple punching. The manufacturer therefore does not need to modify the existing soles and therefore saves a mold.
  • the bottom 14 of the receptacle 12 is arranged below the level of the descaling orifice 11 and the closure means comprise a slope 15 extending from said orifice 11 to the bottom 14 of the receptacle 12, so as to oppose, in position ironing, on return of the lime present in the receptacle 12 towards the vaporization chamber 7.
  • the gradient 15 makes it possible to increase the amount of storage of limestone in the receptacle 12.
  • the limescale particles come to brake on the gradient 15 and said particles, therefore being unable to pass through the baffle 13 towards the vaporization chamber 7, are therefore trapped in the receptacle 12.
  • the closure means comprise, in addition to the receptacle, a conduit 16, one end of which is sealed on the outlet of the descaling orifice 11 and the other end of which is fitted with a seal d seal 17 with the receptacle 12.
  • the seal 17 is preferably made of silicone.
  • the closure plate 6 being separated from the housing 1 by a heat shield 18 made of heat-resistant plastic, the conduit 16 is formed in one piece with said shield 18 and has an inclined region constituting the slope 15.
  • the heat shield 18 being preferably made of a plastic material, the conduit 16 is easily obtained by molding, without the need to add an additional part.
  • the receptacle 12 and the housing 1 comprise mutual locking means.
  • the locking means comprise a rigid stop 22 integral with the housing 1 and a flexible stop constituted by the seal 17, so that the receptacle 12 is fitted resiliently between the housing 1 and the seal 17.
  • the locking must be able withstand the pressure created at the vaporization chamber 7 and maintain the tightness of the receptacle 12 to avoid any leakage of water or vapor which could burn the user. For this we use the elasticity of the joint.
  • the reservoir 8 being removable and disposed in a housing 19 formed in the rear part of the housing 1
  • the receptacle 12 comprises a finger 20 projecting in a light 21 made in the housing 19 and accessible from said housing, so that the receptacle 12 is unlockable by pressing on said finger 20.
  • the receptacle comprises an unlocking lug 23 located in its rear region, so that the receptacle 12 is unlockable by pressing on said lug.
