Description

L'invention concerne un dispositif de repassage à vapeur comportant un fer à repasser à vapeur, un générateur d'eau indépendant et une conduite souple pour relier le générateur d'eau au dit fer à repasser, le générateur d'eau comprenant un socle sur lequel vient reposer le fer à repasser, un réservoir contenant une quantité déterminée d'eau, un moteur électrique actionnant une pompe permettant l'alimentation en eau du fer à repasser à vapeur, une cassette de déminéralisation amovible comportant un bouchon d'entrée-sortie de l'eau à traiter, interposée dans le circuit d'eau entre la pompe et le fer, et montée dans un logement du générateur d'eau, et un dispositif de connexion comportant une première canalisation reliant la sortie de la pompe au bouchon de la cassette, une deuxième canalisation reliant le bouchon de la cassette à la conduite souple de liaison, et un organe de commande du passage de l'eau dans la première canalisation qui est subordonné à la présence ou à l'absence de la cassette de déminéralisation.The invention relates to a steam ironing device comprising a steam iron, an independent water generator and a flexible pipe for connecting the water generator to said iron, the water generator comprising a base on which comes to rest the iron, a tank containing a determined quantity of water, an electric motor actuating a pump allowing the water supply of the steam iron, a removable demineralization cassette comprising an input-output plug water to be treated, interposed in the water circuit between the pump and the iron, and mounted in a housing of the water generator, and a connection device comprising a first pipe connecting the outlet of the pump to the plug the cassette, a second pipe connecting the plug of the cassette to the flexible connecting pipe, and a member for controlling the passage of water in the first pipe which is subordinate to the presence or absence of the demineralization cassette.

On connaît différents types de dispositifs de repassage à vapeur comprenant des dispositifs de connexion destinés à relier le tube de sortie de la pompe au bouchon d'entrée-sortie de la cassette de déminéralisation (EP-A-0461959). Ces dispositifs de connexion utilisent soit une connexion directe du tube de sortie de la pompe sur le bouchon d'entrée-sortie de la cassette ce qui nécessite une manipulation complexe lors du changement de la cassette et entraîne des fuites d'eau en l'absence de cette cassette, soit une connexion du tube de sortie de la pompe sur le bouchon d'entrée-sortie de la cassette par l'intermédiaire d'un clapet autorisant une libre circulation de l'eau en présence de la cassette de déminéralisation, le dit clapet étant toujours immergé dans l'eau non déminéralisée et donc soumis au problème de l'entartrage.Different types of steam ironing devices are known, comprising connection devices intended to connect the outlet tube of the pump to the inlet-outlet plug of the demineralization cassette (EP-A-0461959). These devices connection use either a direct connection of the pump outlet tube to the cassette inlet-outlet plug which requires complex handling when changing the cassette and causes water leaks in the absence of this cassette , or a connection of the pump outlet tube to the cassette inlet / outlet plug via a valve allowing free circulation of water in the presence of the demineralization cassette, said valve being always immersed in non-demineralized water and therefore subject to the problem of scaling.

Le but de l'invention est de remédier aux inconvénients précités en mettant en oeuvre un dispositif de connexion simple et fiable.The object of the invention is to remedy the aforementioned drawbacks by implementing a simple and reliable connection device.

Selon l'invention, la première canalisation comporte une partie souple et l'organe de commande est adapté à créer une déformation externe de la partie souple de manière à obturer ladite partie souple en l'absence de la cassette de déminéralisation.According to the invention, the first pipe comprises a flexible part and the control member is adapted to create an external deformation of the flexible part so as to close said flexible part in the absence of the demineralization cassette.

Grâce au dispositif de connexion selon l'invention, un retrait de la cassette empêche tout écoulement intempestif d'eau. D'autre part, l'organe de commande du dispositif de connexion étant situé à l'extérieur du circuit d'eau, la durée de vie du dit organe de commande est augmenté et le débit d'eau, favorisant un débit constant de vapeur, est toujours régulier du fait qu'aucun organe de commande n'est situé dans la première canalisation.Thanks to the connection device according to the invention, removal of the cassette prevents any untimely flow of water. On the other hand, the control member of the connection device being located outside the water circuit, the life of said control member is increased and the water flow, promoting a constant flow of steam , is always regular because no control member is located in the first pipe.

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 coupe partielle un dispositif de repassage à vapeur équipé d'un dispositif de connexion selon l'invention, la figure 2 représente à échelle agrandie une vue en coupe transversale du dispositif de connexion selon l'invention représenté à la figure 1 et avant le positionnement complet d'une cassette de déminéralisation dans un générateur d'eau, la figure 3 est une vue analogue à la figure 2 mais après le positionnement complet de la cassette de déminéralisation.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 partial section a steam ironing device equipped with a connection device according to the invention, Figure 2 shows on an enlarged scale a cross-sectional view of the connection device according to the invention shown in Figure 1 and before the complete positioning of a demineralization cassette in a water generator, the figure 3 is a view similar to FIG. 2 but after the complete positioning of the demineralization cassette.

Selon la figure 1, un dispositif de repassage à vapeur comporte un fer à repasser à vapeur 1 sans réservoir d'eau, un générateur d'eau indépendant 2 et une conduite souple de liaison 3 pour relier le dit générateur d'eau 2 au dit fer à repasser 1. Le générateur d'eau 2 comprend un socle 4 sur lequel vient reposer le fer à repasser à vapeur 1, un réservoir 5 contenant une quantité déterminée d'eau, un moteur électrique 6 actionnant une pompe 7 permettant l'alimentation en eau du fer à repasser à vapeur 1, une cassette de déminéralisation 8 amovible montée dans un logement 9 et comportant un bouchon d'entrée-sortie 10, et un dispositif de connexion 11 comportant une première canalisation reliant de façon étanche la sortie de la pompe 7 au bouchon 10 de la cassette 8, une deuxième canalisation non représentée reliant, de façon étanche, le bouchon 10 à la conduite souple 3, et un organe de commande du passage de l'eau dans la première canalisation qui est subordonné à la présence ou à l'absence de la cassette de déminéralisation. La première canalisation comporte une partie souple 12 et une pipe rigide C1. La porte souple 12 est, par exemple, un tube souple 12 dont une extrémité E1 est reliée à la sortie de la pompe 7, l'autre extrémité E2 étant reliée à la pipe rigide C1. La deuxième canalisation comporte également une autre partie souple, par exemple un tube souple relié à la conduite souple 3, et une autre pipe rigide (non représentée) identique à la pipe rigide C1.According to Figure 1, a steam ironing device comprises a steam iron 1 without water tank, an independent water generator 2 and a flexible connecting pipe 3 for connecting said water generator 2 to said iron 1. The water generator 2 comprises a base 4 on which the steam iron 1 rests, a reservoir 5 containing a determined quantity of water, an electric motor 6 actuating a pump 7 allowing the supply in water of the steam iron 1, a removable demineralization cassette 8 mounted in a housing 9 and comprising an inlet-outlet plug 10, and a connection device 11 comprising a first pipe sealingly connecting the outlet of the pump 7 at the plug 10 of the cassette 8, a second pipe, not shown, sealingly connecting the plug 10 to the flexible pipe 3, and a member for controlling the passage of water in the first pipe which is subject to the presence or absence of the demineralization cassette. The first pipe comprises a flexible part 12 and a rigid pipe C1. The flexible door 12 is, for example, a flexible tube 12, one end E1 of which is connected to the outlet of the pump 7, the other end E2 being connected to the rigid pipe C1. The second pipe also includes another flexible part, for example a flexible tube connected to the flexible pipe 3, and another rigid pipe (not shown) identical to the rigid pipe C1.

Selon la figure 2, dans laquelle les références désignent les mêmes éléments que ceux définis sur la figure 1, l'organe de commande comporte une pince 11 comprenant une mâchoire mobile 17 et une mâchoire fixe 17'. La mâchoire 17 est montée mobile, et écrase le tube souple 12 contre la mâchoire fixe 17' grâce à un moyen de pression. Le moyen de pression est, par exemple, une lame ressort 13 fixée par l'une de ses extrémités 14 à une partie 15 du socle 4, l'autre extrémité 16 de la dite lame venant en appui contre la mâchoire 17 de la pince 11. La mâchoire 17 de la pince 11 présente, par exemple, la forme d'un U inversé et comporte un méplat 18 en contact avec le tube 12 et deux pattes dont une seule 19 est représentée et chevauchant le dit tube 12. La cassette de déminéralisation 8 comprend des ergots dont un seul 20 est représenté et qui constituent une partie d'un dispositif de verrouillage à baïonnette de ladite cassette de déminéralisation. Lorsque la cassette 8 n'est pas enfoncée dans le logement 9, la lame ressort 13 appuie sur la mâchoire 17 de la pince 11 qui, par son méplat 18, écrase le tube 12 afin d'empêcher toute circulation d'eau.According to Figure 2, in which the references designate the same elements as those defined in Figure 1, the control comprises a clamp 11 comprising a movable jaw 17 and a fixed jaw 17 '. The jaw 17 is mounted mobile, and crushes the flexible tube 12 against the fixed jaw 17 'by means of pressure. The pressure means is, for example, a spring blade 13 fixed by one of its ends 14 to a part 15 of the base 4, the other end 16 of said blade coming to bear against the jaw 17 of the clamp 11 The jaw 17 of the clamp 11 has, for example, the shape of an inverted U and comprises a flat 18 in contact with the tube 12 and two tabs of which only one 19 is shown and overlapping said tube 12. The cassette of demineralization 8 comprises lugs of which only one 20 is shown and which constitute a part of a bayonet locking device of said demineralization cassette. When the cassette 8 is not pressed into the housing 9, the leaf spring 13 presses on the jaw 17 of the clamp 11 which, by its flat 18, crushes the tube 12 in order to prevent any circulation of water.

Selon la figure 3, dans laquelle les références désignent les mêmes éléments que ceux définis sur les figures 1 et 2, la cassette de déminéralisation 8 est montée dans son logement 9 et verrouillée par les ergots 20.According to FIG. 3, in which the references designate the same elements as those defined in FIGS. 1 and 2, the demineralization cassette 8 is mounted in its housing 9 and locked by the pins 20.

La cassette de déminéralisation 8 comporte un moyen de déverrouillage, par exemple une nervure 21 s'étendant selon un cercle déterminé et saillante de la face supérieure 22 de la cassette, cette face 22 étant la face d'introduction de la cassette dans le logement 9.The demineralization cassette 8 comprises an unlocking means, for example a rib 21 extending in a determined and projecting circle from the upper face 22 of the cassette, this face 22 being the face for introducing the cassette into the housing 9 .

Ladite nervure 21, après fixation de la cassette, pousse sur les pattes 13 de la pince 11 et libère ainsi l'ouverture du tube 12. De cette manière, l'eau peut circuler dans la cassette et, après avoir parcouru le cheminement représenté par des flèches F (fig. 3), l'eau arrive, par l'intermédiaire de la deuxième canalisation, dans la conduite souple de liaison 3 permettant ainsi le fonctionnement du dispositif de repassage à vapeur.Said rib 21, after fixing the cassette, pushes on the tabs 13 of the clamp 11 and thus frees the opening of the tube 12. In this way, water can circulate in the cassette and, after having traversed the path represented by arrows F (fig. 3), the water arrives, via the second pipe, in the flexible connecting pipe 3 thus allowing the operation of the steam ironing device.
