Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an ironing apparatus comprising a heating element regulated by means of a thermostat and more particularly to an apparatus provided with a safety device comprising motion detection means and a relay connected in series with the heating element so as to interrupt the supply of the heating element when the apparatus remains too immobile for a long time.
  • Such a safety device controls the opening of the relay only as a function of the time of immobilization of the iron so that the opening of the relay is made most often when the relay is crossed by the supply current of the element. heating.
  • the relay must therefore be sized to support a large number of openings while it is energized, which leads to choosing an expensive relay to manufacture.
  • the following invention aims to provide an ironing apparatus comprising a safety device that is more economical to implement.
  • the invention aims in particular to provide a method of securing an iron that allows to use a less expensive safety relay to manufacture.
  • an ironing apparatus comprising a heating element regulated by means of a thermostat, the apparatus being provided with a safety device comprising motion detection means and a safety relay mounted in series with the heating element to interrupt the power supply of the heating element when the appliance remains too a long time immobile, characterized in that the safety device comprises means for determining the opening state of the thermostat and in that the safety device controls the opening of the safety relay when, simultaneously, the determination means indicate that the thermostat is open and the motion detection means detect immobilization of the apparatus for a time t greater than a warning threshold t 1
  • Such a characteristic makes it possible to control the opening of the safety relay when the latter is not traversed by a current so that the wear of the safety relay is greatly reduced.
  • the safety device controls, at the latest, the opening of the safety relay when the apparatus is stationary for a time t greater than a critical threshold t 2 , the critical threshold t 2 being greater than the alert threshold t 1 .
  • Such a characteristic makes it possible to ensure maximum safety by ensuring that the power supply to the heating element is cut off when the time of immobilization of the apparatus exceeds the critical threshold t 2 .
  • the safety device monitors the state of the thermostat when the time of immobilization of the apparatus is between the alert threshold t 1 and the critical threshold t 2 and controls the opening of the safety relay as soon as the thermostat is detected in an open state by the means for determining the open state.
  • the apparatus comprises a heel on which it can rest during the inactive ironing phases and an ironing plate, in thermal relation with the heating element, on which it can rest for the phases.
  • active ironing apparatus the apparatus comprising position detecting means for determining whether or not the apparatus rests on its heel and the values of the warning threshold t 1 and the critical threshold t 2 are a function of the position of the detected iron by the position detecting means.
  • the values of the alert threshold t 1r and critical threshold t 2r when the iron rests on its heel are respectively more higher than the threshold values t 1s and critical threshold t 2s when the device rests on its sole.
  • the invention also relates to a method of securing an ironing appliance provided with a regulated heating element by means of a thermostat in which a safety relay, arranged in series with the heating element, is open when the appliance remains for a long time immobile, characterized in that the safety relay is open when the thermostat is in an open state and the device is immobile for a time t greater than a warning threshold t 1 .
  • the safety relay is open, at the latest, when the apparatus is stationary for a time t greater than a critical threshold t 2 , the critical threshold t 2 being greater than the alert threshold. t 1 .
  • the state of opening of the thermostat is monitored in a range of immobilization of the apparatus between the alert threshold t 1 and the critical threshold t 2 and the safety relay is open as soon as the thermostat is detected in an open state in the shutdown range.
  • the figure 1 schematically represents the feed circuit of a heating resistor 1 of an iron having a sole in thermal relation with the heating resistor 1 and a heel on which the iron can rest substantially vertically.
  • the heating resistor 1 is connected in series with a thermostat 2 whose set temperature is controlled by the user and the supply circuit comprises two terminals L, N which are subjected to a supply voltage when the iron is connected to the electrical network.
  • the iron is provided with a safety device comprising a safety relay 3 controlled by a control module 4, the safety relay 3 being connected in series with the heating resistor 1 so that the opening of the safety relay 3 interrupts the power supply of the heating resistor 1.
  • the control module 4 receives, in a manner known per se, information from a motion detector 5 and a position sensor 6 for determining whether or not the iron rests on its heel.
  • the position sensor 6 is preferably arranged to detect that the iron rests on its heel when the sole of the iron is inclined more than 20 ° relative to the horizontal.
  • the iron is considered to be placed on its heel when it is placed on an independent iron rest, such as an iron rest built into an ironing board, these iron rests generally having an inclination of about 45 ° .
  • the control module 4 consists of an ASIC or an electronic circuit carried by a printed circuit also supporting all the other elements 3, 5, 6 of the safety device.
  • control module 4 controlling the opening of the safety relay 3 integrates or is connected to means 2a for determining the state of opening or closing of the thermostat 2.
  • these means 2a determine the opening state of the thermostat 2 by measuring the voltage across a voltage divider disposed between the heating element 1 and the thermostat 2 or by measuring the current load through the safety relay 3 using a shunt.
  • the safety device can thus control the opening of the safety relay 3 by taking into account the opening state of the thermostat 2 so that the opening of the safety relay 3 can be performed preferably when the thermostat 2 is open. This avoids the accelerated wear of the safety relay 3 generated in particular by the appearance of arcing when the relay of security 3 is open while it is powered on.
  • control module 4 determines whether the iron is stationary with the aid of the information coming from the motion detector 5.
  • control module 4 executes step 102 of the method in which the control module 4 determines, with the aid of the position sensor 6, whether the iron is immobilized on its heel or on its sole .
  • the control module 4 checks whether the immobilization time of the iron exceeds a critical threshold t 2r , greater than the alert threshold t 1r .
  • control module 4 again carries out the various operations associated with the steps 101 and following of the method.
  • step 110 which consists in controlling the closing of the safety relay 3.
  • step 102 the position sensor 6 sends to the control module 4 the information that the iron rests on its sole
  • the control module 4 executes the steps 103B and following of the method.
  • steps 103B, 104B and 105B of the method are in all respects similar to the steps 103A, 104A and 105A previously described but with threshold values t 1s and t 2s instead of the thresholds t 1r and t 2r .
  • the alert threshold t 1s is of the order of 30 seconds and the critical threshold t 2s is of the order of 40 seconds, so that the closing of the safety relay 3 by the security method intervenes much more quickly when the iron rests on its sole than when it rests on its heel.
  • Such a method of securing an iron by controlling the opening of the safety relay when the thermostat is in an open state in a range of iron downtime between a warning threshold t 1r . t 1s and a critical threshold t 2r , t 2s , has the advantage of allowing in most cases the opening of the safety relay when the latter is not crossed by a current.
  • the thermostat starts to cycle quickly so that the probability that the thermostat is in an open state in the time range between t 1r and t 2r is very important.
  • Such a method of securing thus reduces the solicitation of the safety relay, which allows to significantly increase its life and therefore reduce the size of the relays. This results in a less expensive security device.
  • the security method can also control the activation of one or more LEDs to inform the user when the immobilization time of the iron exceeds respectively the alert threshold and the critical threshold.
  • the security device may have only one sensor which, by an analysis of the signals, will determine both the position of the iron and its setting in motion.
  • this sensor may be a sensor providing a signal relative to the position of the iron, the detection of movement of the iron then being performed by deriving the signal provided by this sensor.
  • the invention can also be applied to a vertical steamer.
