Definitions
- the present invention relates to an iron soleplate comprising a foundry body to which is fixed by fixing means, a metal ironing cap.
- the foundry body of an iron is a part which is generally made of aluminum on which
- Colaminated materials are moreover obviously known, and have in particular already been used in the automotive field. To this end, we used collaminated materials of the aluminum-stainless steel bi-layer type, looking for the anti-corrosion effect of stainless steel, as well as its aesthetic appearance.
- Colaminated materials of the aluminum-stainless steel type have also already been used to make the bottom of certain pans.
- the thermal diffusion effect provided by aluminum has always been sought, as well as the aesthetic effect of the external stainless steel layer without worrying about the significant difference in coefficient of thermal expansion between the two colaminated materials leading to a well-known bending effect on the bottom of the pan. Because of the heating methods used and the after all minimal effect of the thermal transmittance factor for such kitchen utensils, this phenomenon of bending and relative destructuring of the bottom of the pan has always been accepted.
- the object of the present invention therefore aims to remedy the problems mentioned above for the production of iron soles, and to propose a new iron sole, the production of which is simplified and does not require surface preparation while retaining good heat exchange properties without significant deformation.
- Another object of the invention is to provide an iron soleplate whose thermal expansion is controlled to guarantee a long life of the soleplate and quality ironing.
- Another object of the invention is to provide an iron soleplate in which the fixing of the metal cap on the foundry body is obtained in a particularly simple manner and at a reduced cost.
- the subject of the invention also relates to a new use of colaminated materials in the field of household appliances, and to a method of assembling a metal ironing cap on a foundry body.
- an iron soleplate comprising a foundry body integral with a metal ironing cap made up of at least two layers of material characterized in that the metal cap is made up of an assembly of at least two layers of co-laminated materials together in which the first layer forms the fixing layer on the foundry body and is made of the same material as the foundry body or in a material having similar physical characteristics, and the second layer forms the ironing layer, the thickness of the second layer being between 5% and 40% of the thickness of the first layer and preferably between 15 and 17%.
- the objects assigned to the invention are also achieved by the use of a collaminated material based on at least two layers as a metal ironing cap for an iron.
- the objects assigned to the invention are also achieved by means of a process for producing an iron soleplate in which a foundry body is made integral with a metal ironing cap made up of at least two layers of materials characterized in that it consists: from a metal cap made up of at least two layers of colaminated materials, to attach and then fix said cap by means of fixing to the foundry body previously formed.
- Figure 1 shows in a partial cross section the structure of an iron soleplate according to the invention.
- Figure 2 shows in a partial upper view of the nose of an iron soleplate according to the invention, one of the means for fixing said sole.
- FIG. 3 shows, in a partial cross section along line III-III of FIG. 2, the fixing means shown in FIG. 2.
- the soleplate of iron shown in Figure 1 comprises a foundry body 1 from a foundry part and made for example of aluminum and defining a bottom face 2 substantially planar.
- the upper part of the foundry body 1 defines a series of cavities and channels intended to form with a chamber closure plate vaporization and a thermal skirt (not shown in the figures) the various compartments and essential elements of an iron.
- the soleplate of the iron is intended for a steam iron, and the foundry body 1 has for this purpose a series of openings 3 in relation to a vaporization chamber (not shown in the figures).
- the invention can however be applied to a dry iron.
- the iron soleplate according to the invention comprises, as shown in FIG. 1, a metal cap 4 consisting of an assembly of at least two layers of colaminated materials.
- the metal cap 4 comprises a first layer 5 which forms the fixing layer on the lower face 2 of the foundry body 1.
- the first layer 5 is substantially flat and made of a material identical to that of the foundry body 1 or at least in a material with similar physical characteristics.
- similar physical characteristics is meant essentially physical characteristics relating to the coefficient of thermal expansion and / or the hardness of the material and / or the thermal conductivity.
- the co-laminated metal cap 4 also comprises a second layer 6, the external face 6a of which forms the ironing layer.
- the foundry body will be made of aluminum, and the metal cap will comprise a two-layer collaminated assembly in which the first layer 5 is also made of aluminum, while the second layer 6 is made of stainless steel.
- the first layer 5 can be made of a material with physical characteristics similar to aluminum, such as copper, and the second layer 6 made of copper, nickel or even titanium.
- the thickness of the second layer 6 will be between 5% and 40% of the thickness of the first layer 5 and preferably between 15% and 17%.
- the thickness of the second layer will be between 5% and 12% on the one hand, and 14% and 40% on the other hand, of the thickness of the first layer 5, or even between 15% and 40 %, or even between 15% and 20%.
- Other preferential ranges, such as 20% to 40%, or 30% to 40% are obviously possible.
- the total thickness of the coated metallic cap 4 corresponding to the addition of the thicknesses of the first layer 5 and of the second layer 6 will be between 1.6 and 2 mm and preferably between 1.7 and 1.9 mm.
- the thickness of the second layer 6 is between 0.1 and 0.4 mm and preferably between 0.2 and 0.3 mm, while the thickness of the first layer 5 is between 1.4 and 1.7 mm, and preferably between 1.5 and 1.6 mm.
- the thickness ranges mentioned are particularly indicated for a collaminated material of the aluminum-stainless steel type.
- the metal cap 4 may consist of three layers of colaminated materials, the first layer 5 being of aluminum or copper, the second layer 6 of copper or stainless steel and the intermediate layer (not shown in the figures ) aluminum copper or ordinary steel.
- the metal caps thus produced will be of the aluminum-steel-stainless steel type or preferably of aluminum-copper-stainless steel or else copper-aluminum-stainless steel.
- the relative thicknesses of the first layer 5 and the second layer 6 will each represent between 15 and 17% of the total thickness of the three-layer cap, the intermediate layer therefore representing between 66 and 70% of the total thickness.
- the nature of the latter will obviously be chosen on criteria of improving the rigidity of the colaminated assembly and also on criteria of thermal conductivity and expansion.
- the co-laminated metal cap 4 is attached and then fixed to the foundry body 1 by fixing means.
- the latter comprise a layer of adhesive 10, preferably heat-resistant and / or based on polymerized silicone adhesive, extending between the underside 2 and the first layer 5.
- the soleplate of the iron When the soleplate of the iron is intended for a steam iron, it has steam holes 11 which are crimped on the foundry body 1 in the orifices 3. In such a case, the crimped material forms the means of fixing which can be complementary to the adhesive layer 10.
- the metal cap 4 comprises at least one zone forming an edge folded 12 which comes to bear by its edge against a peripheral edge 13 of the foundry body 1. Due to the heterogeneity of the temperatures prevailing at the level of the ironing soleplate, provision is made to produce the folded edge 12 at the front of the sole where the cap is more stressed to form a hooking nose ( Figures 2 and 3).
- the metal cap 4 is provided over its entire perimeter with a rolled peripheral edge 14 (Figure 1) extending the second layer 6 and promoting the good mechanical strength of the sole.
- the metal cap 4 is secured to the foundry body 1, by exclusively mechanical fixing means, for example consisting of threaded rods or rivets.
- mechanical fixing means for example consisting of threaded rods or rivets.
- a combination of various mechanical means, with or without the use of a layer of adhesive 10, is also conceivable.
- a colaminated material based on at least two layers, preferably aluminum-stainless steel, as a metal ironing cap for an iron makes it possible to combine the advantages of the two colaminated metals.
- the first layer 5, made of the same material or in a material similar to that of the foundry body, ensures on the one hand good thermal conduction and on the other hand an optimal fixing and bonding favorable to the stability of the whole thanks to the homogeneity of materials.
- the second layer 6 provides a good aesthetic effect and gives the sole good gliding properties without damaging the cohesion of the colaminated assembly despite the large differences in coefficient of thermal expansion and the risks of deformation expected over the entire sole.
- the method of producing an iron soleplate according to the invention consists, from a metal cap 4 consisting of at least two layers of colaminated materials 5,6, to be attached and then to fix said cap by fixing means 3,10,12 on the foundry body 1 previously formed by any known technique, and for example by molding.
- the foundry body 1 thus being in the form of a unitary piece easily transportable, can be made integral with the metal cap 4 and easily lend itself to any industrial operation of manipulation and assembly.
- the method according to the invention also consists in attaching and then fixing the metal ironing cap 4 on the foundry body 1 without any surface preparation, since the fixing means 3,10,12 are of mechanical type.
- the method according to the invention further consists in using a colaminated assembly based on at least two layers of materials of composition and thickness as defined above, and in spreading a layer of heat-resistant glue on the surface of the first layer 5 coming into contact with the foundry body 1, to constitute at least partially the mechanical fixing means 3,10,12.
- the invention finds its application in the production of iron soles, in particular of steam iron soles.
