Definitions

  • the invention relates to an electric iron, the housing of which comprises a tube for supplying pressurized water, a heating soleplate comprising a steam generator equipped with a device for drip flow in a water dispenser of the type with adjustable flow rate, the outlet port of which opens into the generator while the inlet port is connected to the water supply tube, and which is provided with a rotating shaft for adjusting the water flow rate, and a water spray device placed at the front of the iron.
  • the water spraying devices are generally connected to a water supply independent of the pressurized water supply.
  • Such water spraying devices are mechanical devices generally using a piston pump which requires successive pressures from the user for operation.
  • known electric irons operating with two independent water supplies require a double filling and emptying operation before and after each use which considerably lengthens the time of setting up and storage.
  • said electric irons have, in their interior, numerous water pipes which on the one hand, increase the size of the electric iron and, on the other hand, the cost price of the iron.
  • the object of the invention is to remedy the aforementioned drawbacks by implementing a simple, reliable and economical connection of the water spraying device with the pressurized water supply tube.
  • the water spraying device is connected to the pressurized water supply tube by a pipe which comprises an opening-closing means controlled by a user to regulate the passage of the water.
  • the pipe is connected to the water distributor.
  • the pipe is constituted by the movable adjustment shaft and comprises a sealed device for connection with a flow pipe connected to the spraying device.
  • the spraying of water towards the front of the iron is authorized by the simple and single pressure of a lever controlled by the user.
  • the use of the movable adjustment shaft as a water pipe between the pressurized water supply tube and the spraying device simplifies the distribution of water, and reduces the bulk inside the iron. electric iron as well as the manufacturing cost of said iron.
  • Figure 1 shows, in partial vertical section, part of an electric iron, according the invention, equipped with a pipe between a water spray device and a pressurized water supply tube;
  • Figure 2 is an enlarged view of the part shown in broken lines in Figure 1 and corresponding to an opening-closing means of the pipe according to the invention.
  • the electric iron comprises a box 1 which comprises a tube 2 for supplying water under pressure, a heating soleplate 3 comprising a steam generator 4 equipped with a drip device 5 in a water distributor of the adjustable flow type 6 whose outlet orifice 7 opens into the generator 4 while the inlet orifice 9 is connected to the water supply tube 2, and which is provided with a rotating shaft 8 for adjusting the water flow rate, and a water spraying device 10 placed at the front of the iron.
  • the spraying device 10 is connected to the tube 2 for supplying water under pressure by a pipe which comprises an opening-closing means 12 controlled by a user to regulate the passage of the water.
  • the tube 2 is connected to an independent water tank (not shown) by means of a pump (not shown) intended to send water under a pressure of a few hundred millibars.
  • a trigger G mounted in the handle of the iron makes it possible to cut off the water supply to the distributor 6 by stopping the control of the pump and by crushing the water inlet tube.
  • the water tube 2 includes a filter F.
  • the pipe is connected to the water distributor 6 and is constituted, for example, by the movable adjustment shaft 8.
  • the pipe comprises a sealed device for connection 13 with a flow line 14 connected to the spraying device 10.
  • the lower part of the shaft 8 plunging into the water distributor 6 comprises, on the one hand, a slot E 1 connecting, by rotation of the movable shaft 8, the tube 2 and the movable shaft 8 and , on the other hand, a slot E 2 connecting, by rotation of said shaft 8, said tube 2 and the steam generator 4, said connections being independent or simultaneous.
  • the rotation of the movable shaft 8 around a vertical axis is achieved by a button B placed in the upper region of the iron, connected to said movable shaft 8 and adjustable by the user according to the nature of the linen to be ironed.
  • connection device 13 comprises an annular chamber 15 integral with the housing 1 and arranged around the shaft 8 which has a lateral hole 16 opening into said chamber 15
  • This chamber 15 comprises a sliding sliding bearing 11 and an O-ring T intended to ensure the tight closure of this chamber.
  • the movable shaft 8 comprises, at the level of the annular chamber 15, an internal tube 17, the lower region of which carries the opening-closing means 12, and the upper end of which is open to allow an axial movable control member to pass through. 18 of the opening-closing means which is mounted in leaktight manner in said shaft 8, the space delimited between the upper end and the lower region constituting a distribution chamber 15 'which communicates with said lateral hole 16.
  • the lower region of the tube 17 has the shape of a neck 19 and is connected to said tube by an internal shoulder 20, the space thus formed between the internal wall of the shaft 8, and the external wall of the tube 17 and an annular seal 21 interposed between these walls constituting a connecting passage 22 which connects the distribution chamber 15 'to the lateral hole 16.
  • the opening-closing means 12 comprises a valve 25 whose seat is formed by the lower end of the neck 19 and which can occupy two positions, that is to say an open position for which it lets pressurized water pass through the distribution chamber 15 ′ and into which it is brought by the action of the mobile control member 18 against 'a thrust spring 26 bearing on an internal shoulder 27 of the shaft 8, that is to say a closed position for which it rests on the seat and closes the neck 19 and in which it is brought by the thrust spring 26.
  • the valve 25 has a tail 28 which is mounted axially in the neck 19 and the upper end 29 of which is, on the one hand, placed opposite the lower end of the movable control member 18 and, on the other hand, separated from the lower end ieure of the movable member 18 by a small space d.
  • the mobile control member 18 consists of a pusher 30 integral with a pressure lever 31 and is held above the tail of the valve 25 by a coil spring 32, one end 33 of which is applied against the shoulder 20 of the tube 17, and the other end 40 of which presses against a washer 41 which fits on the lower part of the pusher 30 as far as a stop 42, and which maintains an O-ring seal 43.
  • the space d thus left allows, when the joystick 31 is pressed by the user, to avoid immediate operation of the water spraying device, which improves convenience for the user. Indeed, this space d allows the user to slightly manipulate the pressure lever 31 without triggering the spraying.
  • valve 25 at the end of the neck 19 Thanks to the arrangement of the valve 25 at the end of the neck 19, a good seal is ensured, since this valve is subjected to the pressure of the water in the shaft 8 and to the opposing force of the spring 26.
  • the user who wishes to iron a fabric by operating the water spray device acts as follows.
  • the slot E 1 of the lower part of the movable shaft 8 is connected to the tube 2 for supplying water under pressure.
  • the pressurized water arrives in the hollow shaft 8.
  • the pusher 30 sinks and presses, upon sufficient pressure, on the valve 25 leaving the flow of water through the neck 19 to the distribution chamber 15 '.
  • the water flows through the passage 23 and the connection corridor 22 then crosses the hole 16 to arrive in the annular chamber 15 which communicates with the flow pipe 14 connected to the spraying device 10.
  • the user by a particular rotation of the button B, can vary the water flow inside the water spraying device. Indeed, the slot E 1 having a bevelled structure, the flow rate varies as a function of the section present with respect to the inlet orifice 9 of the water distributor 6.
