Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an iron with a handle forming a protuberance on the body of the iron, the walls of the latter converging towards the base of the handle, and relates more particularly to means to limit the risk of burns when handling such irons.
  • Such a handle has the disadvantage to bring the fingertips of the hand closer to the warm walls of the body of the iron, which increases the risk of accidental burns when in contact with the fingers with the hot zones of the iron, close to the sole, during the different grip changes, this problem being all the more important that the user has big hands.
  • an object of the present invention is to remedy these disadvantages by providing an iron with a shaped handle forming a protuberance on the body of the iron and provided with means limiting the movement of the fingers towards the warm walls of the iron body when the user grasps the handle to manipulate the iron.
  • the subject of the invention is an iron with a body surmounting a sole and a handle forming a protuberance on the body of iron, the body having walls converging towards the base of the handle, the handle comprising an upper surface forming a bearing surface for the palm of the hand and sidewalls extending from the surface top of the handle to the walls of the body of the iron, the side walls having a gripping zone for receiving the ends of the fingers, characterized in that the iron comprises finger guards making protruding laterally under the gripping areas of the handle, the guards bumper for the fingers of the hand preventing them from coming to contact of the hot walls of the body of the iron.
  • Such a handle has the advantage of limiting the risk of burns of fingers, especially for a user with large hands.
  • the guards are located at the junction between the handle and the body of the iron.
  • Such a feature allows protection guards to serve as rest fingers, the latter being wedged for greater ergonomics use of iron.
  • the body of the iron forms a dome whose base is adjusted to the contour of the sole and whose top has a flared portion forming the protective guards of the fingers, the width of the flared top of the body being larger than the width of the handle at its base.
  • the protection guards protrude laterally at least 5 mm from the surface of the side walls of the handle.
  • Such a characteristic has the advantage of ensuring a good wedging of the fingers on the protection guards.
  • the side walls are substantially parallel to each other or weakly convergent at the level of gripping, the width of the handle at the gripping areas being greater than 5 cm.
  • Such a feature allows to have a handle of great ergonomics preventing too close a position of the fingers of the generating hand of tensions.
  • Figures 1 to 5 show a steam iron with a sole 1 heated, surmounted by a body 2 and a handle 3 disposed substantially above the center of the sole 1.
  • the sole 1 substantially flat, has a particular shape to three tips for efficient ironing in several directions.
  • the body 2 of the iron comprises walls 21 converging in the direction of the handle 3 so that the body 2 forms a dome whose base is adjusted to the outline of the sole 1; and whose top has a truncated portion and flare supporting the handle 3, the latter forming a protrusion on the body 2 of iron.
  • the handle 3 has a general one-piece shape, similar to a roller, and has a convex upper surface 31 convex slightly inclined forwardly iron.
  • the upper surface 31 advantageously has a width between 6 and 9 cm, and preferably of the order of 7 cm, and a length greater than 10 cm and preferably of the order of 13 cm.
  • the upper surface 31 extends towards the body 2 of the iron respectively by two side walls 32 and a front wall 33, the walls lateral 32 and front 33 advantageously a height of the order of 4 cm.
  • the side walls 32 are provided with a concave recess 32a originating near the front wall 33 of the handle 3, said recesses 32a extending towards the back of the handle on substantially 70% of the length of the wall 32.
  • These recesses 32a vertically rise to proximity of the lateral edges of the upper surface 31 and extend over substantially the entire height of the side wall 32.
  • the width of the handle at the recesses 32a is greater than 5 cm so that when the fingers of the hand and more particularly, the inch and the end of the little finger and / or the ring finger, rest against these recesses, this does not generate a closed position of the hand.
  • the handle 3 comprises, at the level of its base, a width smaller than the width of the flared top of the iron body 2 so that on either side of the handle 3 a flange forming a 4.
  • the guards 4 extend laterally from minus 5 mm from the lateral surface 32 of the handle and extend longitudinally over substantially the entire length of the handle 3.
  • the interior volume of the guards 4 can integrate a thermally insulating foam and guards 4 will be located at a distance as the heating soleplate 1 that, in operation, the temperature maximum portion of the walls 21 disposed under the guards does not exceed 55 ° C.
  • guards 4 serve as a stop for the fingers of the hand when the palm rests on the handle 3, thus preventing the fingers from coming accidentally touch the hot walls 21 of the body 2 of the iron.
  • the iron thus produced has the advantage of having a handle providing great ergonomics and greater security against the risks of burns.
  • the guards at the base of the handle serve both to limit the radiation of heat towards the fingers and to block the movement of the fingers towards the body of the iron when the user grasps the handle.
  • the guards arranged at the base of the handle are visually integrated into the body of the iron.
  • the guards serving as a finger stop will be able to be made by projecting fins carried by the handle or by the part upper body of iron.
  • the guards of protection can be overmoulded in a specific material, at very low coefficient of thermal conductivity.
  • an insulating material may also be inserted between the guards reported and the body of the iron.
