Description

Kaltnebel-Bügeleisen Cold Mist Iron
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Bügeleisen gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to an iron according to the preamble of claim 1.
Bekannt sind Dampfbügeleisen, bei denen zur Glättung des Bügelgutes Wasser verdampft und über eine beheizte Bügelsohle auf das Bügelgut aufgebracht wird. Durch den Dampf werden die Fasern des Bügelgutes entspannt und dadurch das Bügelergebnis verbessert. Weiterhin ist es bei Dampfbügeleisen bekannt, eine Sprühvorrichtung vorzusehen, mit der nach manueller Betätigung ein Wasserstrahl vorne auf das Bügelgut gespritzt werden kann, mit dem jedoch nur ein punktuelle Durchnässung erzielt werden kann.Steam irons are known in which water is evaporated to smooth the ironing material and is applied to the ironing material via a heated soleplate. The steam relaxes the fibers of the ironing material and thereby improves the ironing result. Furthermore, it is known in steam irons to provide a spraying device with which a water jet can be sprayed onto the material to be ironed on the front after manual actuation, but with which only punctual wetting can be achieved.
Weiterhin ist durch die WO 94/23111 ein Bügeleisen mit innerhalb einer bügelflächensei- tig offenen Zerstäuberkammer angeordneten Zerstäubungseinrichtung bekannt. Dieses Bügeleisen erfordert nachteiligerweise eine aufwendige Bügelsohlenkonstruktion, die den weiteren Nachteil besitzt, nur eine geringe Auflagefläche auf das Bügelgut und damit eine geringe Bügelfläche aufzuweisen.Furthermore, WO 94/23111 discloses an iron with an atomizing device arranged inside an atomizer chamber that is open on the side of the ironing surface. This iron disadvantageously requires an expensive soleplate construction, which has the further disadvantage of having only a small contact surface on the items to be ironed and thus a small ironing surface.
Die Aufgabe der Erfindung besteht darin, ein kostengünstiges Bügeleisen bereitzustellen, mit dem ein gutes Bügelergebnis erreicht wird.The object of the invention is to provide an inexpensive iron with which a good ironing result is achieved.
Die Aufgabe der Erfindung wird durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und Weiterbildungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den nachfolgenden Unteransprüchen.The object of the invention is solved by the features of claim 1. Advantageous refinements and developments of the invention result from the following subclaims.
Ein besonderer Vorteil der Erfindung besteht darin, daß eine elektrische Pumpe vorgesehen ist, mit der Wasser aus einem Wassertank über eine Sprühdüse zur Befeuchtung des Bügelgutes abgebbar ist. Auf diese Weise wird eine Verkalkung des Bügeleisens im Vergleich zu Dampfbügeleisen vermieden, da das Wasser nicht innerhalb des Bügeleisens verdampft wird. Aufgrund der elektrischen Pumpe und Anzahl und der Anordnung der Sprühdüsen ist es auf einfache Weise möglich, das Wasser in Form eines Sprühnebels fein verteilt auf das Bügelgut zu bringen. Weiterhin kann auf diese Weise das Wasser je nach Bewegungsgeschwindigkeit des Bügeleisens eine bestimmte Zeit in das Gewebe eindringen, so dass es vor dem Erhitzen durch die Bügelsohle durchfeuchtet ist. Das Bügelergebnis wird auf diese Weise verbessert.A particular advantage of the invention is that an electric pump is provided, with which water can be dispensed from a water tank via a spray nozzle for moistening the items to be ironed. In this way, calcification of the iron is avoided in comparison to steam irons, since the water is not evaporated inside the iron. Due to the electric pump and the number and arrangement of the spray nozzles, it is easily possible to bring the water in the form of a spray finely distributed onto the ironing material. Furthermore, depending on the speed of movement of the iron, the water can penetrate into the fabric for a certain time, so that it is moistened by the soleplate before being heated. The ironing result is improved in this way.
Die Erfindung wird im folgenden anhand der Figuren 1 und 2 näher erläutert. Es zeigen:The invention is explained in more detail below with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. Show it:
Fig. 1 ein Bügeleisen,1 is an iron,
Fig. 2 eine Front- bzw. Rückansicht des Bügeleisens, undFig. 2 is a front or rear view of the iron, and
Fig. 3 eine schwenkbare Sprühdüse.Fig. 3 is a pivotable spray nozzle.
Fig. 1 zeigt schematisch den Aufbau eines Trockenbügeleisens mit einer beheizbaren Bügelsohle 1, deren Temperatur über Einstellmittel vorgegeben werden kann. Auf der Bügelsohle 1 ist ein Gehäuse 2 mit integriertem Griff 3 aufgebracht. Im Gehäuse 2 ist ein Wassertank 4 vorgesehen, der über einen Füllkanal 5 befüllbar ist. In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist zwischen dem Wassertank 4 und der beheizten Bügelsohle 1 eine thermische Isolierschicht 15 vorgesehen, so daß das Wasser im Wassertank 4 nicht er- wärmt wird. Die Isolierschicht 15 ist, in der Form an den Wassertank 4 und an die beheizte Bügelsohle 1 vorzugsweise anzupassen und im Material in der Weise auszubilden, daß eine Erwärmung vorzugsweise über eine Auskalkungstemperatur von 70° vermieden wird. In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist der Wassertank 4 aus dem Gehäuse 2 entnehmbar. Diese Ausführungsform weist im Wassertank 4 eine Füllöffnung auf, über die beim ausgebauten Wassertank 4 Wasser eingefüllt werden kann. Der Füllkanal 5 ist vorzugsweise zur Frontseite F des Gehäuses 2 geführt.Fig. 1 shows schematically the structure of a dry iron with a heatable soleplate 1, the temperature of which can be specified via adjusting means. A housing 2 with an integrated handle 3 is applied to the soleplate 1. A water tank 4 is provided in the housing 2 and can be filled via a filling channel 5. In a preferred embodiment, a thermal insulating layer 15 is provided between the water tank 4 and the heated soleplate 1, so that the water in the water tank 4 is not heated. The insulating layer 15 is preferably to be adapted in shape to the water tank 4 and to the heated soleplate 1 and to be formed in the material in such a way that heating is preferably avoided above a decalcification temperature of 70 °. In a preferred embodiment, the water tank 4 can be removed from the housing 2. This embodiment has a filling opening in the water tank 4, through which water can be filled when the water tank 4 is removed. The filling channel 5 is preferably guided to the front F of the housing 2.
Der Wassertank 4 steht über eine Saugleitung 6 mit einer elektrischen Pumpe 7 in Verbindung. Die elektrische Pumpe 7 ist wiederum über Leitungen 8 an Sprühdüsen 9 ange- schlössen. An der Oberseite des Gehäuses 2 ist ein Schalter 10 vorgesehen, der über elektrische Leitungen mit der Pumpe 7 in Verbindung steht. Über den Schalter 10 kann die Pumpe 7 ein- bzw. ausgeschaltet werden. Ist die Pumpe 7 eingeschaltet, so saugt sie über die Saugleitung 6 Wasser aus dem Wassertank 4 und befördert das Wasser über die Leitungen 8 zu den Sprühdüsen 9. Durch die Verwendung einer elektrischen Pumpe 7 werden die Sprühdüsen 9 mit Wasser mit hohem Druck versorgt. Der hohe Druck des Wassers ermöglicht es, Sprühdüsen mit besonders großer Strahlaufweitung zu verwenden. Aufgrund des hohen Drucks wird auch bei feinen Sprühgittern, die zur Zerstäubung des Wassers in den Sprühdüsen 9 eingesetzt werden, eine gute Verteilung des Wassers auf dem Bügelgut mit einer entsprechend ausreichenden Sprühweite erreicht. Auf diese Weise wird das Bügelgut gleichmäßig mit relativ wenig Wasser pro Flächeneinheit befeuchtet. Diese dünne Wasserschicht ermöglicht es, daß das Wasser bei Kontakt mit der heißen Bügelsohle 1 relativ schnell verdampft und dadurch die Fasern im Bügelgut entspannt werden. Auf diese Weise wird ein Bügelergebnis erreicht, das der Qualität des Bügelergebnisses eines Dampfbügeleisens entspricht. Zusätzlich wird eine Zeitersparnis erreicht gegenüber herkömmlichen Dampfbügeleisen. Es werden jedoch ungünstige Effekte, wie z.B. eine starke Verkalkung, eine aufwendige Ausführungsform der Bügelsohle oder der Einsatz von destilliertem Wasser im Vergleich zum Dampfbügeleisen vermieden.The water tank 4 is connected to an electric pump 7 via a suction line 6. The electric pump 7 is in turn connected to spray nozzles 9 via lines 8. A switch 10 is provided on the top of the housing 2 and is connected to the pump 7 via electrical lines. The pump 7 can be switched on or off via the switch 10. If the pump 7 is switched on, it sucks water from the water tank 4 via the suction line 6 and conveys the water via the lines 8 to the spray nozzles 9. By using an electric pump 7, the spray nozzles 9 are supplied with water at high pressure. The high pressure of the Water makes it possible to use spray nozzles with a particularly large jet expansion. Due to the high pressure, a good distribution of the water on the ironing material is achieved with a correspondingly sufficient spray range even with fine spray grids which are used to atomize the water in the spray nozzles 9. In this way, the material to be ironed is moistened uniformly with relatively little water per unit area. This thin layer of water enables the water to evaporate relatively quickly when it comes into contact with the hot soleplate 1, thereby relaxing the fibers in the material to be ironed. In this way, an ironing result is achieved which corresponds to the quality of the ironing result of a steam iron. In addition, time is saved compared to conventional steam irons. However, unfavorable effects, such as severe calcification, a complex embodiment of the soleplate or the use of distilled water compared to the steam iron, are avoided.
Das Bügeleisen der Fig. 1 weist eine Frontseite F und eine Rückseite R auf. Das Bügelei- sen weist ein Stromkabel auf, mit dem sowohl die elektrische Pumpe 7 als auch die beheizbare Bügelsohle 1 mit Strom versorgt werden.1 has a front side F and a rear side R. The iron has a power cable with which both the electric pump 7 and the heatable soleplate 1 are supplied with power.
In Fig. 2 ist schematisch die Frontseite F und die Rückseite R dargestellt. Vorzugsweise weist das Bügeleisen eine Sprühdüse in einer Mittenachse 11 der Front und/oder der Rückseite auf. In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform sind zwei Sprühdüsen an der Front- und/oder Rückseite des Bügeleisens an beiden Seiten der Mittenachse 11 im unteren Bereich, d.h. in der Frontseite im Bereich der Bügelspitze 12 und in der Rückseite in der Mitte über der Bügelsohle 1 , angeordnet. Vorzugsweise sind die Sprühdüsen 9 beweglich gelagert, so daß sie von einem Bediener in ihrer entsprechenden Sprührichtung einge- stellt werden können. Dazu ist beispielsweise eine Art Kugellagerung zur Aufnahme der Sprühdüse 9 im Gehäuse 2 vorgesehen.The front side F and the rear side R are shown schematically in FIG. The iron preferably has a spray nozzle in a central axis 11 of the front and / or the rear. In a preferred embodiment, two spray nozzles are on the front and / or rear of the iron on both sides of the central axis 11 in the lower region, i.e. arranged in the front in the area of the temple tip 12 and in the back in the middle above the soleplate 1. The spray nozzles 9 are preferably mounted so that they can be moved by an operator in their corresponding spray direction. For this purpose, for example, a type of ball bearing is provided for receiving the spray nozzle 9 in the housing 2.
Fig. 3 zeigt eine entsprechende Kugellagerung einer Sprühdüse 9. Dazu weist das Gehäuse 2 eine Ausnehmung 14 auf, die in Form einer Teilkugel ausgebildet ist. Die Sprüh- düse 9 ist in dieser Ausführungsform im hinteren Bereich ebenfalls teilkugelförmig ausgebildet und in der Ausnehmung 14 gehaltert. Zudem sind in das Gehäuse 2 entsprechende Ausnehmungen eingebracht, damit die Leitung 8 auch nach einem Schwenken der Sprühdüse 9 ohne Behinderung zur Sprühdüse 9 führt. Im Bereich der Spitze der Sprühdüse 9 ist ein Sprühsieb 13 angeordnet, mit dem das von der Sprühdüse 9 abgegebene Wasser fein zerstäubt wird. Anstelle eines Sprühsiebes 13 kann auch eine entsprechend geformte Sprühdüsenspitze vorgesehen sein.3 shows a corresponding ball bearing of a spray nozzle 9. For this purpose, the housing 2 has a recess 14 which is designed in the form of a partial ball. In this embodiment, the spray nozzle 9 is also partially spherical in the rear region and held in the recess 14. In addition, corresponding recesses are made in the housing 2 so that the line 8 leads to the spray nozzle 9 without hindrance even after pivoting the spray nozzle 9. In the area of the tip of the spray nozzle 9, a spray sieve 13 is arranged, with which the water discharged from the spray nozzle 9 is atomized. Instead of a spray screen 13, a correspondingly shaped spray nozzle tip can also be provided.
Durch Integration einer Elektronik, können fest programmierte oder individuell einstellbare Sprühzyklen durch den Benutzer abgerufen werden. Dazu sind dem Schalter 10 Drehpositionen zuordenbar, in deren Stellung der Schalter 10 entsprechende Programme der Elektronik startet. Bei einem Sprühzyklus sprüht die Pumpe 7 in vorgegebenen Zeiten Wasser aus vorgegebenen Sprühdüsen 9. By integrating electronics, permanently programmed or individually adjustable spray cycles can be called up by the user. For this purpose, the switch 10 can be assigned rotary positions, in the position of which the switch 10 starts corresponding programs of the electronics. In a spray cycle, the pump 7 sprays water from predetermined spray nozzles 9 at predetermined times.
