Definitions

  • the present invention relates to steam irons in which the water supplied from a water tank vaporizes in a steam chamber and in which the water flow of the tank to the steam chamber is controlled by a sliding control rod (see FR-A-2 821 368 ).
  • the conventional steam irons have a drip protection device which stops the entry of water to be vaporized into the steam chamber when the steam chamber is not hot enough to prevent the escape of water on the clothing being ironed.
  • a known anti-drip device which fulfills this function consists of a Bimetallthermoelement which is subjected to the heating of the steam chamber and from a certain temperature or higher temperatures when operating a drip protection valve opens a water passage from the water tank and a water passage from the water tank to the steam chamber through an inlet hole for Steam chamber regulated by a sliding control rod.
  • the bimetallic thermocouple operates the drip protection valve, which closes the water passage from the water tank, with no more water entering the steam chamber, even if the inlet hole of the steam chamber is not closed by the sliding control rod.
  • the iron has an operating mode in which the sliding control rod is placed in self-cleaning position.
  • the self-cleaning means are to allow water to pass through the drip-proof valve to the steam chamber via a hole in the steam chamber opened by the rod, even though the steam chamber is not yet sufficiently hot.
  • This is achieved with a sliding control rod having means for opening or keeping open the drip control valve when it is in the self-cleaning position. That is, it works when the steam chamber is cold or hot.
  • the means for opening or keeping open the anti-drip valve described in the patent may be realized by means of a mechanical operation in which a lever connected between the rod and the valve opens the anti-drip valve, whereby the water passage from the water tank to the steam chamber through the hole the steam chamber is left open.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object or technical problem of providing a new steam iron with a simple, effective, safe and reliable water supply system to the steam chamber for cleaning the steam chamber.
  • This object is achieved by means of a steam iron with the characteristics of claim 1.
  • This steam iron comprises: a water tank hydraulically connectable to a steam chamber via an antechamber, the prechamber having an inlet opening communicating with the water tank and an outlet opening communicating with the steam chamber a drip protection valve for Opening and closing the inlet port, a slidable control rod extending within the prechamber through a hermetically sealed prechamber passage opening, for adjusting the amount of water flowing from the prechamber through the outlet port to the vapor chamber when the exhaust port Control rod is located at least in a first position in which the displaceable control rod has a Stabbypassabites which, when the rod is in a second position, the hermetically sealed prechamber passage opening opens and a flow of water from the water tank to the prechamber and from the prechamber through the outlet port to Steam chamber allows.
  • the hermetically sealed prechamber passage opening is provided with a ring seal that contacts the outer surface of the slidable control rod in the first position.
  • This seal may be circular or polygonal in addition to the portion of the slidable control rod in the first position to effect a hermetic seal.
  • the slidable control rod has a plug portion for adjusting the amount of water flowing from the pre-chamber through the outlet port to the steam chamber when the slidable control rod is in a first, open position; and the plug member hermetically closes the discharge port when the slidable control rod is in a first, closed position and at a second position (P2a, P2b) away from the discharge port (24) so as to be completely free for the water passage.
  • antechamber is to be understood as meaning a region which encloses a water circuit with a water inlet, which flows from the water tank through an inlet opening and / or through a pre-chamber through-opening, and a water outlet, which flows through the outlet opening to the steam chamber.
  • the slidable control rod is generally a thin rod that extends in a substantially straight axis.
  • the rod has a circular or polygonal, regular or non-regular, perpendicular to the axis section with a constant section along at least part of its length along and is formed of a solid piece or several solid pieces which are hinged together or not, and extends within the prechamber through a hermetically sealed prechamber passage opening for adjusting the amount of water flowing from the prechamber through the outlet opening to the steam chamber when the regeistab is at least in a first position.
  • Stabbypassabites is to be understood in the context of the invention, any kind of variation on the portion of the rod, which opens the hermetically sealed Vorschtechnik für for the water passage from the water tank to the antechamber.
  • a hermetic element is provided, which will be described in more detail below.
  • water tank is meant not only a container for containing water, but a container for containing any kind of liquid, vaporizable medium, which is suitable for steam ironing, including suitable additives, which are supplied to this medium.
  • the water container may comprise one or more chambers or may also comprise one or more than one separate water container unit, which may have the same or different volumes.
  • the drip control valve opens and closes the water passage from the water tank through the inlet port to the prechamber.
  • An iron with a slidable control rod having a rod bypass section which, when the rod is in a second position, opens the hermetically sealed prechamber passage opening and thus a flow of water from the water tank to the prechamber and from the prechamber via the outlet port to the steam chamber independently thereof; whether the drip-proof valve is open or closed is an easier-to-manufacture water supply system to the steam chamber for cleaning the steam chamber than that of the prior art steam irons, since it requires a smaller number of components and reduces manufacturing costs.
  • the displaceable control rod is displaceable by an actuating element between the two positions.
  • the actuator may be mechanical or electromechanical and normally intended by the user to be actuated at the moment of introducing water into the steam chamber, regulating the water inlet flow into the steam chamber, and locking the water inlet, or moving the rod to the second position in which the hermetically sealed pre-chamber through-hole is opened in a user-friendly manner.
  • the ring seal is a clip seal which is attachable in the hermetically sealed prechamber passage opening of the pre-chamber by clamping, whereby an easy attachment in the manufacturing process is given.
  • the rod bypass portion of the rod is a reduced portion of the slidable control rod. That is, the vertical portion of the rod is reduced in the area of the bypass at its outer or inner part by material reduction, so that when it is arranged in the second position, the hermetic seal of the seal is no longer effective, because the seal is not the outer surface of the rod touched more and lets the water through to the antechamber.
  • An embodiment of the reduced portion of the bypass is by means of a Stabbypassabitess, which is designed as a recess on the movable control rod. This resembles a tight neck on the length of the rod. The constriction can be performed exactly in the middle of the rod; However, this is not necessary because a reduction on one side is sufficient. This is a simple way to do a bypass.
  • the rod bypass portion is within the pre-chamber when the slidable control rod is in at least a first position, and the rod bypass portion opens the hermetically sealed pre-chamber through-hole when the slidable control rod is in an upwardly shifted, second position.
  • the rod as it is displaced in a movement in the direction of its axis towards the top of the iron, i. to the handle of the iron that the user uses to move over the clothes, i. to the top, reaching a second position.
  • the rod separates from the discharge opening of the prechamber and allows a water passage from the water tank via the hermetically sealed prechamber passage opening to the steam chamber.
  • a rod bypass section located outside the prechamber when the slidable control rod is in the at least one first position and the rod bypass section opens the hermetically sealed prechamber passage opening when the slidable control rod is in a downwardly shifted, second position.
  • the position of the bypass in the first position of the rod is understood to be outside the prechamber, above and above the hermetically sealed prechamber port.
  • the rod when displaced in a movement in the direction of its axis towards the base of the iron, ie towards the sole of the iron, reaches a second position.
  • the rod of the outlet opening of the pre-chamber opens the water passage through the outlet opening of the prechamber in any conceivable manner, by exerting pressure on the outlet opening and passing through it or also with a second bypass, as described below.
  • the hermetically sealed prechamber passage opening is defined in an upper prechamber wall through which the slidable control rod passes directly into the prechamber without having to have a connection channel from the water tank to the prechamber, thereby simplifying its construction.
  • the prechamber is defined by a wall of the water tank having the hermetically sealed prechamber passage opening and a prechamber seal pluggable connectable to the wall of the water tank and having the discharge opening of the prechamber. That is, the water area is enclosed by a wall of the water tank and the prechamber seal attached to the wall of the water tank.
  • the hermetically sealed prechamber passage opening is incorporated, and moreover, this may also be the inlet opening, whereby it lies within the water circulation area. This is a very simple construction, which offers the advantage of easy mounting.
  • the pre-chamber seal is made of an elastic material that can withstand high temperatures. This material helps with the plug-in insertion into the wall of the water tank.
  • the drip protection valve is integrally formed in the pre-chamber seal, as this, as already said, the entire water circulation area from the inlet opening to the outlet closes.
  • One mode of execution is to realize the valve in the elastic part of the pre-chamber seal with an axis which extends towards the inlet opening and at its end has a widening opening and closing the inlet opening depending on the position of the axis, and has a spring which moves the axis for continuous closing. If it is necessary for water to enter through the inlet opening, it is necessary that the axis to overcome the spring force is pushed by a shock element, as described below.
  • the iron also has a steam chamber lid having a hole, and the pre-chamber has a protruding portion having the outlet opening which seals the hole.
  • the protruding part of the pre-chamber may be realized as a cylindrical extension towards the lid, which conforms to the shape of the lid and surrounds the hole of the lid. When made of an elastic material, it must be able to withstand the high temperatures to which the lid of the steam chamber heats up.

  • the needle serves to guide the rod and allow its seating on the outlet port.
  • the plug part has a plug bypass section.
  • This plug bypass section can pass water directly to the steam chamber when the slidable control rod is in the second position to jettison a jet of water into the chamber and produce a larger amount of steam.
  • the plug bypass section opens the discharge port when the sliding control rod is in the second position, so that when water enters from the water tank through the hermetically sealed prechamber passage to the prechamber, the water enters the steam chamber via the plug bypass section of the rod, even if the steam chamber is cold and the drip protection valve is closed, since it is not actuated by the bimetallic actuator.
