Description
L'invention se rapporte aux fers à repasser comprenant un boîtier, une semelle de repassage comportant une résistance chauffante qui est noyée dans la semelle et dont les extrémités font saillie de la face supérieure de ladite semelle dans la région postérieure du fer, ainsi qu'un écran thermique interposé entre ladite face supérieure de la semelle et le boîtier, et maintenu sur ladite semelle par des moyens de fixation.The invention relates to irons comprising a housing, an ironing soleplate comprising a heating resistor which is embedded in the soleplate and the ends of which protrude from the upper face of said soleplate in the rear region of the iron, as well as a heat shield interposed between said upper face of the sole and the housing, and held on said sole by fixing means.
Dans les fers à repasser connus, la semelle est réalisée en une pièce de fonderie généralement d'aluminium et les moyens de fixation sont constitués de plusieurs vis qui traversent l'écran thermique et qui viennent en prise, soit avec des alésages taraudés pratiqués dans la semelle, soit avec des pattes métalliques rivetées ou serties sur la semelle (voir par exemple GB-A-2 158 105).In known irons, the sole is made of a piece of casting generally of aluminum and the fixing means consist of several screws which pass through the heat shield and which engage, either with tapped bores made in the sole, either with riveted or crimped metal tabs on the sole (see for example GB-A-2 158 105).
L'inconvénient d'utiliser de tels moyens de fixation réside dans des opérations supplémentaires d'usinage de la semelle et dans l'augmentation du nombre de pièces sur la face supérieure de la semelle, sachant que cette surface est faible et reçoit les connexions électriques. En outre, ces opérations d'usinage et ces pièces supplémentaires réclament un montage non automatisé et grèvent le prix de revient de ces semelles.The drawback of using such fixing means lies in additional operations for machining the sole and in the increase in the number of parts on the upper face of the sole, knowing that this surface is small and receives the electrical connections. . In addition, these machining operations and these additional parts require non-automated assembly and increase the cost price of these soles.
L'invention a pour but de pallier ces inconvénients et de réaliser un montage de l'écran sur la semelle qui soit simple et économique.The invention aims to overcome these drawbacks and to achieve a mounting of the screen on the sole which is simple and economical.
Selon l'invention, les moyens de fixation de l'écran thermique comprennent, dans la partie antérieure de la semelle, un organe d'ancrage de l'écran à la semelle et, dans la partie postérieure de la semelle, un dispositif d'accrochage de l'écran sur les extrémités saillantes de la résistance.According to the invention, the means for fixing the heat shield comprise, in the front part of the sole, a member for anchoring the screen to the sole and, in the rear part of the sole, a device for hanging the screen on the protruding ends of the resistor.
Les caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention ressortiront d'ailleurs de la description qui va suivre, à titre d'exemple non limitatif, en référence aux dessins annexés dans lesquels :
- la figure 1 est une vue schématique partielle d'un fer à repasser illustrant en coupe la fixation d'une semelle et d'un écran thermique selon l'invention ;
- la figure 2 est une vue en coupe selon la ligne II-II de la figure 1 ;
- la figure 3 est une vue agrandie en coupe verticale d'une variante de réalisation d'un détail de la fixation de l'écran sur la semelle ;
- la figure 4 représente en coupe partielle et schématiquement un fer à repasser à vapeur selon l'invention ;
- Figure 1 is a partial schematic view of an iron illustrating in section the attachment of a sole and a heat shield according to the invention;
- Figure 2 is a sectional view along line II-II of Figure 1;
- Figure 3 is an enlarged view in vertical section of an alternative embodiment of a detail of the fixing of the screen on the sole;
- Figure 4 shows in partial section and schematically a steam iron according to the invention;
Le fer à repasser représenté schématiquement à la figure 1 comprend un boîtier 1 formant poignée et réalisé en une matière plastique ne supportant pas de très hautes températures, une semelle de repassage 2 réalisée en une pièce de fonderie généralement d'aluminium et comportant une résistance tubulaire chauffante 3 du type blindée en forme de U qui est noyée dans la semelle et dont les extrémités 4 et 5 font saillie de la face supérieure 6 de la semelle 2 dans la région postérieure du fer, ainsi qu'un écran thermique 7 interposé entre la face supérieure 6 et le boîtier 1 et maintenu sur ladite semelle par des moyens de fixation. Cet écran présente la forme d'une coquille renversée et est réalisé en un matériau résistant aux hautes températures par exemple en une résine du type vendue sous la marque déposée bakélite.The iron shown schematically in Figure 1 includes a housing 1 forming a handle and made of a plastic material not withstanding very high temperatures, an ironing sole 2 made of a piece of foundry generally of aluminum and comprising a
Le boîtier 1 est donc isolé de la semelle chauffante et est fixé à l'écran thermique 7 par tous moyens connus 8 tels que vis ou agrafe.The housing 1 is therefore isolated from the heating sole and is fixed to the heat shield 7 by any known means 8 such as screws or clips.
Selon l'invention, les moyens de fixation de l'écran thermique 7 comprennent, dans la partie antérieure de la semelle, un organe d'ancrage 9 de l'écran 7 à la semelle et, dans la partie postérieure de la semelle, un dispositif d'accrochage 10 dudit écran sur les extrémités 4 et 5 saillantes de la résistance 3.According to the invention, the means for fixing the heat shield 7 comprise, in the front part from the sole, an
Grâce à ce montage de l'écran sur la semelle, on comprend que l'on évite dans la partie postérieure à la fois des organes d'ancrage, tels que des vis, et des alésages ou pattes rapportées sur la semelle et qu'ainsi, tout en récupérant de la place pour agencer les connexions électriques, on abaisse le prix de revient d'une telle semelle équipée d'écran.Thanks to this mounting of the screen on the sole, it is understood that one avoids in the rear part both anchoring members, such as screws, and bores or tabs attached to the sole and thus , while recovering space to arrange the electrical connections, the cost price of such a soleplate fitted with a screen is lowered.
Comme on le voit mieux sur la figure 2, le dispositif d'accrochage 10 comporte des pattes P1 et P2 qui sont solidaires de l'écran 7 et dirigées vers la semelle 2 et dont les régions inférieures comportent chacune un crochet présentant une portée 11,12 de friction avec l'extrémité correspondante 4,5 de la résistance tubulaire 3.As can best be seen in FIG. 2, the
Dans une réalisation préférée, ces crochets sont formés par des guides tubulaires 13,14 pratiqués dans les pattes P1 et P2 de l'écran thermique 7 et dont une région de la paroi interne forme les portées 11,12 destinées à venir en prise avec les extrémités respectives 4,5 de la résistance.In a preferred embodiment, these hooks are formed by
De manière à assurer un meilleur accrochage de l'écran 7 sur les extrémités 4 et 5 de la résistance, la face inférieure de l'écran comporte un bossage B qui vient prendre appui sur la semelle entre l'organe 9 et lesdites extrémités de manière à obtenir avec l'organe 9 un effet de levier entre les parties antérieure et postérieure de l'écran et notamment sur les pattes P1 et P2 tirant ainsi vers le haut les portées 11,12 des guides 13 et 14.In order to ensure better attachment of the screen 7 to the ends 4 and 5 of the resistor, the underside of the screen has a boss B which comes to bear on the sole between the
Comme représenté sur les figures, les extrémités 4 et 5 de la résistance blindée 3 font saillie vers le haut selon une direction inclinée par rapport à la face horizontale supérieure 6 de la semelle 2 et les guides tubulaires 13,14 sont également inclinés de manière à assurer un bon appui sur les portées 11,12.As shown in the figures, the ends 4 and 5 of the
Selon une variante illustrée à la figure 3 et afin d'améliorer la friction tout en rattrapant éventuellement les jeux d'assemblage susceptibles de se produire dans une fabrication en grande série, chaque extrémité 4,5 de la résistance comporte un manchon 15,16 en silicone qui vient en prise respectivement avec les portées 11 et 12. En outre, ces manchons en silicone isolent thermiquement l'écran 7 de ces extrémités 4 et 5 portées à de hautes températures.According to a variant illustrated in FIG. 3 and in order to improve the friction while possibly making up for the assembly clearances liable to occur in mass production, each end 4,5 of the resistance comprises a
De manière à garantir le positionnement correct et la fixation sûre de l'écran 7 sur la semelle 2, l'organe d'ancrage 9 est constitué d'une vis qui vient se visser dans un alésage taraudé 18 pratiqué dans la semelle.In order to guarantee the correct positioning and secure fixing of the screen 7 on the sole 2, the anchoring
La tête de cette vis 9 vient en prise avec le débouché supérieur d'une cheminée 17 solidaire de l'écran et dont le débouché inférieur vient en appui sur la semelle 2.The head of this
Comme on le comprendra, le montage de l'écran 7 sur la semelle 2 tel que décrit ci-dessus en référence à un fer à repasser du type sec illustré à la figure 1, peut être également appliqué à un fer à repasser du type à vapeur tel qu'illustré schématiquement à la figure 4. Pour la commodité de lecture des dessins, on a gardé pour les pièces semblables les mêmes références que celles des figures 1 à 3. Ce fer comporte un boîtier 1 renfermant un réservoir d'eau 21 et une semelle 2 qui est chauffée par une résistance blindée 3 noyée comprenant des extrémités en saillie dont une seule 4 est visible et qui comporte une chambre de vaporisation 22 communiquant avec des orifices de sortie de vapeur 23 pratiqués dans la semelle et recouverte par un capot 24 présentant une ouverture pour un dispositif d'amenée d'eau 25 (non représenté) dans ladite chambre.As will be understood, the mounting of the screen 7 on the sole 2 as described above with reference to an iron of the dry type illustrated in FIG. 1, can also be applied to an iron of the type steam as illustrated schematically in Figure 4. For the convenience of reading the drawings, we kept for similar parts the same references as those of Figures 1 to 3. This iron comprises a housing 1 containing a
Le boîtier 1 est séparé de la semelle 2 par un écran thermique 7 présentant le même genre d'organes de fixation, c'est-à-dire : organe d'ancrage 9 et guides tubulaires 13,14 pratiqués dans l'écran 7.The housing 1 is separated from the sole 2 by a heat shield 7 having the same kind of fixing members, that is to say: anchoring
Ainsi, que ce soit une semelle de fer à repasser sec ou à vapeur, le procédé de fixation de l'écran thermique 7 sur la semelle 2 est le même et consiste à enfiler par translation, de la partie postérieure vers la partie antérieure de la semelle, les guides tubulaires 13 et 14 respectivement sur les extrémités 4 et 5 de la résistance blindée, puis à assurer le maintien en position correcte de l'écran sur la semelle par l'organe d'ancrage unique, tel qu'une vis 9. Enfin, le boîtier 1 est fixé sur l'écran 7 et termine l'assemblage du fer.Thus, whether it is a dry or steam iron soleplate, the method of fixing the heat shield 7 to the soleplate 2 is the same and consists in threading by translation, from the rear part towards the front part of the sole, the
Ce procédé peut être ainsi automatisé en partie et présente l'avantage d'être simple et économique.This process can thus be partially automated and has the advantage of being simple and economical.
