Description

La présente invention concerne une socle de repos pour fer à repasser comprenant un boîtier destiné à reposer sur un plan de travail et renfermant un réservoir d'eau pour l'alimentation dudit fer au moyen d'une conduite souple, ainsi qu'une surface supérieure de réception du fer garnie de plots isolants.The present invention relates to a rest base for an iron comprising a housing intended to rest on a work surface and containing a water tank for supplying said iron by means of a flexible pipe, as well as an upper surface. receiving iron with insulating pads.

Dans les ensembles de repassage connus comprenant un fer et un socle de repos, la surface de réception pour le fer est généralement horizontale ou légèrement inclinée pour offrir à l'utilisateur un choix de la préhension du fer. Dans ces réalisations, cependant, l'inclinaison de la surface d'appui et le positionnement du socle sont imposés, ce qui peut-être une gêne lorsqu'il existe différents utilisateurs pour un même ensemble de repassage.In known ironing assemblies comprising an iron and a rest base, the receiving surface for the iron is generally horizontal or slightly inclined to offer the user a choice of gripping of the iron. In these embodiments, however, the inclination of the bearing surface and the positioning of the base are imposed, which may be a nuisance when there are different users for the same ironing set.

L'invention a notamment pour but de supprimer cet inconvénient.The object of the invention is in particular to eliminate this drawback.

Selon l'invention, le socle comporte des moyens de positionnement destinés à maintenir la surface de repos, soit dans une position pratiquement parallèle au plan de travail, soit dans une position inclinée par rapport au plan de travail.According to the invention, the base comprises positioning means intended to maintain the rest surface, either in a position practically parallel to the work plane, or in an inclined position relative to the work plane.

Selon une réalisation particulièrement avantageuse, les moyens de positionnement autorisent également la suspension du socle à la table de repassage lorsque l'utilisateur désire ne pas poser le fer sur le socle. Grâce à l'invention, l'utilisateur peut choisir la position de la surface de repos pour le fer qui correspond le mieux à ses habitudes.According to a particularly advantageous embodiment, the positioning means also authorize the suspension of the base from the ironing table when the user wishes not to place the iron on the base. Thanks to the invention, the user can choose the position of the rest surface for the iron which best corresponds to his habits.

Les caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention ressortiront d'ailleurs de la description qui va suivre d'un mode particulier de réalisation pris à titre d'exemple non limitatif illustré aux dessins annexés dans lesquels :
   La figure 1 représente en élévation une vue d'ensemble d'un fer reposant sur un socle selon l'invention ; la figure 2 est une vue en coupe verticale et à échelle agrandie du socle de repos pour fer à repasser, dans une position parallèle au plan de travail ; la figure 3 est une coupe verticale partielle à échelle agrandie du socle de repos pour fer à repasser dans une position inclinée par rapport au plan de travail.The characteristics and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the following description of a particular embodiment taken by way of nonlimiting example illustrated in the accompanying drawings in which:
Figure 1 shows in elevation an overall view of an iron resting on a base according to the invention; Figure 2 is a vertical sectional view on an enlarged scale of the stand for iron, in a position parallel to the work surface; Figure 3 is a partial vertical section on an enlarged scale of the rest base for iron in an inclined position relative to the work surface.

La figure 1 illustre un socle 1 de repos pour fer à repasser 5 comprenant un boîtier 2 qui est destiné à reposer sur un plan de travail 3, et qui comporte une surface supérieure 7 de repos pour le fer 5 et garnie de plots isolants 8. Comme représenté sur la figure 2, ce boîtier 2 renferme un réservoir d'eau 4 pour l'alimentation du fer et comprend une cassette de déminéralisation 9, un système de verrouillage 10 de la cassette 9, ainsi qu'un moteur électrique 11 actionnant une pompe à eau 12 destinée à alimenter le fer au moyen d'une conduite souple non représentée sur cette figure. Selon l'invention, le socle 1 comporte des moyens de positionnement destinés à maintenir la surface de repos 7, soit dans une position pratiquement parallèle au plan de travail 3 (fig. 2 et 3), soit une position inclinée par rapport à ce plan 3 (fig. 1).FIG. 1 illustrates a rest base 1 for an iron 5 comprising a housing 2 which is intended to rest on a work surface 3, and which has an upper surface 7 for rest for the iron 5 and provided with insulating pads 8. As shown in FIG. 2, this box 2 contains a water tank 4 for supplying the iron and comprises a demineralization cassette 9, a locking system 10 for the cassette 9, as well as an electric motor 11 actuating a water pump 12 intended to supply the iron by means of a flexible pipe not shown in this figure. According to the invention, the base 1 comprises positioning means intended to maintain the rest surface 7, either in a position practically parallel to the work plane 3 (fig. 2 and 3), or an inclined position relative to this plane 3 (fig. 1).

Dans une réalisation particulièrement économique, conformément à la figure 3, la position inclinée de la surface de repos 7 est une position déterminée par le constructeur. Bien entendu, on conçoit que la position inclinée pourrait être ajustée angulairement au moyen de tout dispositif de réglage connu en soi. De même, selon cette réalisation particulière, le socle 1 et la surface de repos 7 du fer forment un seul bloc qui est, soit posé horizontalement sur sa base, soit incliné dans son ensemble par des moyens de positionnement. Ces moyens de positionnement comprennent un organe 13 formant pied agencé dans la région inférieure du boîtier 2 et susceptible d'occuper au moins deux positions : une positon escamotée pour laquelle la surface de repos 7 occupe sa position parallèle au plan de travail 3 (fig. 2), soit une position saillante pour laquelle la surface de repos occupe une position inclinée par rapport au plan de travail 3 (fig. 3). Effectivement et comme cela apparaît notamment sur la figure 2 et 3, la région inférieure du boîtier 2 comprend un logement 14 destiné à recevoir l'organe formant pied 13 dans une position escamotée. L'organe formant pied 13 est monté pivotant dans le boîtier 2 en l'une 21 de ses extrémités autour d'un axe 15 parallèle à la surface de repos 7.In a particularly economical embodiment, in accordance with FIG. 3, the inclined position of the rest surface 7 is a position determined by the manufacturer. Of course, it is understood that the inclined position could be adjusted angularly by means of any adjustment device known per se. Similarly, according to this particular embodiment, the base 1 and the rest surface 7 of the iron form a single block which is either placed horizontally on its base, or inclined as a whole by positioning means. These positioning means comprise a member 13 forming a foot arranged in the lower region of the housing 2 and capable of occupying at least two positions: a retracted position for which the rest surface 7 occupies its position parallel to the work plane 3 (fig. 2), or a projecting position for which the rest surface occupies an inclined position relative to the work surface 3 (fig. 3). Indeed and as it appears in particular in FIGS. 2 and 3, the lower region of the housing 2 comprises a housing 14 intended to receive the member forming a foot 13 in a retracted position. The foot member 13 is pivotally mounted in the housing 2 at one of its ends 21 around an axis 15 parallel to the rest surface 7.

Par ailleurs, le logement 14 de l'organe formant pied 13 comporte une glissière 16 et ledit pied 13 comprend au moins un pivot 17 agencé selon l'axe de pivotement 15 et monté coulissant dans ladite glissière 16 de manière à faire passer le pied 13 de sa position escamotée à sa position saillante. Avantageusement, on pourra se limiter à un seul pivot 17 dont les extrémités dépassent de part et d'autre de l'organe faisant pied 13 et coulissent dans des guides 18 de la glissière 16.Furthermore, the housing 14 of the foot member 13 comprises a slide 16 and said foot 13 comprises at least one pivot 17 arranged along the pivot axis 15 and mounted to slide in said slide 16 so as to pass the foot 13 from its retracted position to its projecting position. Advantageously, it is possible to be limited to a single pivot 17, the ends of which protrude on either side of the foot member 13 and slide in guides 18 of the slide 16.

Ainsi, pour faire passer l'organe formant pied 13 de sa position escamotée (fig. 2) à sa positon saillante (fig. 3), on lui fait effectuer d'abord une translation vers l'extérieur du boîtier 2 suivant les guides 18 de la glissière 16, puis un pivotement vers le bas autour de l'axe 15.Thus, to move the member forming the foot 13 from its retracted position (fig. 2) to its projecting position (fig. 3), it is first made to translate outwardly from the housing 2 along the guides 18 of the slide 16, then pivot down around the axis 15.

Les moyens de positionnement comprennent un dispositif de maintien en position saillante comportant, dans le boîtier 2, une chambre 19 débouchant dans la région supérieure du logement 14, et dans la glissière 16 un décrochement 20 dirigé vers le haut de sorte qu'en position saillante, le pivot 17 vienne dans le décrochement 20 et l'extrémité 21 de l'organe formant pied 13, comportant en outre un doigt 22, vienne s'emboîter dans la chambre 19. En la position saillante illustrée sur la figure 3, on comprend que le doigt 22 contribue au maintien de l'extrémité 21 du pied 13 en venant s'arc-bouter contre la paroi interne de la chambre 19. Le doigt 22 intervient également dans le verrouillage du pied 13 dans sa position escamotée, en venant se loger dans un évidement 23 du boîtier 2 de manière à réaliser un ajustement étroit entre le pivot 17 et cet évidement.The positioning means comprise a device for holding in the projecting position comprising, in the housing 2, a chamber 19 opening into the upper region of the housing 14, and in the slide 16 a recess 20 directed upwards so that in the projecting position , the pivot 17 comes in the recess 20 and the end 21 of the member forming the foot 13, further comprising a finger 22, comes to fit into the chamber 19. In the projecting position illustrated in FIG. 3, it is understood that the finger 22 contributes to the maintenance of the end 21 of the foot 13 by coming to butt against the internal wall of the chamber 19. The finger 22 also intervenes in the locking of the foot 13 in its retracted position, coming from lodge in a recess 23 in the housing 2 so as to make a close fit between the pivot 17 and this recess.

L'organe formant pied 13 comporte en outre en son extrémité libre, un crochet 24 destiné à permettre la suspension du socle 1 à un support lorsque le pied 13 occupe une position dite intermédiaire (non représentée). En effet, en faisant effectuer à l'organe formant pied 13 une simple translation selon les guides 18 de la glissière 16, son extrémité libre fait saillie latéralement du boîtier, et l'utilisateur peut, s'il souhaite ne pas poser le fer sur le socle 1, accrocher ce dernier à la table de repassage au moyen du crochet 24 en libérant ainsi toute la surface de la table à repasser.The foot member 13 further comprises at its free end, a hook 24 intended to allow the suspension of the base 1 to a support when the foot 13 occupies a so-called intermediate position (not shown). In fact, by making the member forming a foot 13 perform a simple translation along the guides 18 of the slide 16, its free end projects laterally from the housing, and the user can, if he wishes not to place the iron on the base 1, hang the latter on the ironing table by means of the hook 24, thereby freeing up the entire surface of the ironing table.

L'organe formant pied comporte également une poignée 25 destinée à faciliter la préhension du socle et la manipulation du pied 13. Ainsi, grâce à l'invention, l'utilisateur peut choisir la position de la surface de repos pour le fer qui lui convient le mieux.The foot member also comprises a handle 25 intended to facilitate the gripping of the base and the manipulation of the foot 13. Thus, thanks to the invention, the user can choose the position of the rest surface for the iron which suits him the best.
