Definitions

  • the invention relates to a steam iron with a steam chamber for generating steam for ironing and a water tank, which is associated with the steam chamber and a Wasserein spallloch which is hermetically sealed by a closing element, and at least one vent opening.
  • the iron also has a pressure equalization system having at least one vent line for equalizing air pressure differences between the inside and the outside of the water tank.
  • WO 2005/014916 iron which has a vent line for equalizing the pressure between the inside of the water tank of the iron and the outer environment of the water tank of the iron.
  • the steam iron described in the document has a hanger body and a water tank in which a hole is made in the rear region of the hanger body, through which the water tank can be filled with water.
  • the filling hole is located at the level of the soleplate and aligned so that the filling of the container takes place by the iron is kept noticeably vertical with the tip down.
  • Such an arrangement makes it possible to have a larger and obstacle-free filling hole, which facilitates the rapid filling of the container, since it can be arranged directly under a tap or jet of water. This iron is thus designed for back filling.
  • the pressure compensation system is designed such that it is arranged in its entirety in the interior of the water tank.
  • the pressure equalization system of this iron has a flexible tube which is arranged with a first end portion in the front part of the water tank, that the hole of the first end portion of the water tank and the iron protrudes.
  • a first, spaced from the flexible tube end portion leads through the rear part of the water tank to a hollow element, which is designed with a larger diameter compared to the cross section of the flexible tube which expands and arranged in the region of the Wasser disclosederein spalllochs. This additional element is aligned with its mouth to the bottom of the water tank.
  • a major problem with this type of irons which are especially designed as a steam iron, based on the fact that pressure differences between the inside of the water tank and the environment of the iron can occur. Especially when the iron is in operation and the sole and a possibly existing steam chamber are hot and then a refilling of the water tank is carried out, there may be differences between the air pressure inside the water tank and the air pressure in the vicinity of the iron. Therefore, it may happen that the leakage of water from the water tank to the steam chamber is no longer or insufficiently.
  • the prior art iron has another problem in that the water may leak again when the water tank is filled, and thus when the iron is held in a substantially vertical position by the pressure equalizing system.
  • the pressure equalizing system is arranged such that, when carrying out the back filling, water may also flow along the flexible pipe to the region of the front end and drip there.
  • An iron according to the invention comprises a steam chamber for generating steam for ironing, a water tank associated with the steam chamber and having a water filling hole hermetically sealable by a closing member and at least one vent opening of the water tank.
  • the iron also has a pressure equalization system, which has at least one vent line, which is connected with a first end section to the at least one vent opening of the water container, and a first air inlet / outlet opening, via which a first, spaced from the at least one vent opening end portion is connected to the outside of the water tank for equalizing air pressure differences between the inside and the outside of the water tank.
  • the pressure compensation system has at least one second air inlet / outlet opening, and the at least one vent line has a second, spaced end portion connected to the second entry / exit opening for increasing air pressure differences between the inside and outside of the water tank.
  • water tank is meant not only a container for containing water, but a container for containing any liquid, vaporizable medium suitable for steam ironing, including suitable additives supplied to this medium.
  • the water container may include one or more chambers, or may also include one or more separate receptacle units, which may have the same or a different volume.
  • the closing element for closing the filling hole of the water reservoir or container may be a hinged plug on the rear part of the iron, which hermetically closes the water container by pressure or rotation.
  • the first vent opening of the water tank may be a hole in the wall of the water tank from where the vent line goes out and connects it to the air inlet / outlet opening located outside the water tank and spaced therefrom.
  • Vent line also connects to the second air inlet / air outlet opening, whereby the pressure compensation is increased.
  • Vent line is any channel that connects entrances and exits. It is desirable that on average it be as hermetic as possible, so that it has neither air nor water leaks. It may be implemented by reshaping the walls of the water tank and lids closing the ductwork, or rigid or elastic pipes or flexible hoses connected to the openings, with the aim of keeping their internal ducting always open and unclogged so that the air can enter from the outside of the container into the interior and vice versa, with the aim of balancing the pressures inside and outside the container.
  • the pressure equalization between the water tank and the environment of the iron is always carried out safely, whereby a safe and reliable operation of the iron can be guaranteed.
  • the vent line according to the invention that when carrying out the filling of the water tank.
  • the water filling hole is arranged in a rear part of the iron, and therefore when filling with water with a substantially vertical orientation of the iron with the filling mouth must be arranged upwards, whereby its filling is facilitated because it can be arranged more conveniently opposite the water jet.
  • the at least one vent line is a first vent line and the at least one vent opening of the water tank is a first vent opening of the water tank located in a front upper part of the water tank to which the first vent line is connected and thus on the opposite side End is located to Wasser instructerein spallloch, which prevents the liquid contained in the water tank or filled therein can escape through the pressure compensation system and especially on the air inlet / air outlet of the vent line again.
  • the front, upper part of the water tank, which penetrates the first end portion, may be separated from the remaining area of the water tank by means of a partition so that the communication between the front area of the water tank and the remaining area of the water tank through a narrow through hole with a relatively small Opening cross-section is formed.
  • the iron is designed as a steam iron, may be arranged in this area a remplisstechniksdosierspitze, which opens into the steam chamber and which is designed such that the liquid drips from the water tank to the steam chamber.
  • the drop of liquid within the steam chamber which is particularly necessary in the case of steam irons, is not disturbed in the present case due to the fact that there are no different pressure conditions between the pressure in the front region of the water tank and the surroundings of the iron.
  • the first air inlet / outlet opening when the iron is in the ironing position, is located in a front part of the iron above the water tank and above the at least one water tank vent. As a result, the air inlet / outlet is always above the highest water level, whereby the spillage of water is avoided. And preferably, the first air inlet / outlet opening is located in a gripping area of the iron, which is generally the highest point of the iron in its ironing position.
  • the first vent line runs in a loop from the first water tank vent to the back of the iron in the vicinity of the water filler hole and back to the first air inlet / air outlet.
  • the route of the line from the first water tank vent to the air inlet / air outlet is to be understood with the turn in the direction change, which is preferably curved, but may have angled vertices.
  • the loop of the first vent line has an inflection point that is above a maximum fill level of the water container when the iron is in a vertical fill position with the water fill port up. That is, it exceeds in the direction of the rear part of the iron, the maximum fill level, so that the water when filling the water reservoir is not through the line off and the air inlet / air outlet runs.
  • This liquid discharge from the water tank is also avoided by means of the arrangement of the air duct according to the invention, since when the iron is transferred from the substantially vertical position to the horizontal position after filling of the water tank and is thus supported on the sole of the iron, the water in the pipe runs back into the tank.
  • the dripping or spilling from the water container can also be avoided if the iron is so arranged in a substantially vertical position that the rear portion of the iron is directed downwards or the front portion, and thus the tip of the iron, is oriented upward is.
  • the second air inlet / outlet opening is in communication with the steam chamber.
  • This design is very advantageous in the case in which water enters the first vent line, since it can flow directly into the steam chamber.
  • the conduit may be connected directly to an opening in a wall of the steam chamber or to an antechamber in connection therewith.
  • the vent line is preferably arranged with a continuous lead in substantially its entire length from the first water tank vent to the first air inlet / air exit.
  • the continuous rising arrangement is made with respect to the horizontal position of the iron, the position being considered to be a horizontal position in which the iron with its sole is positioned substantially horizontally.
  • the pressure equalization system includes a line separator disposed in the first vent line and dividing it into a main branch extending from the first water tank vent to the separator and at least two sub-branches, whereby the first water tank vent and the main branch communicate with the first sub-branch Air inlet / outlet opening and via the second sub-branch, which forms the second, spaced end portion is connected to the second air inlet / air outlet opening.
  • This separator is useful in the formation of the first vent line, as it divides it into sub-sections or sub-branches with more direct connection to the opening and the entrances / exits.
  • the separating element is arranged in the vicinity of the inflection point of the first vent line and / or forms the inflection point.
  • This position facilitates the outflow of water through the second sub-branch to the second air inlet / outlet opening.
  • the second sub-branch is hermetically connected to the second air inlet / outlet opening of the steam chamber to prevent the water flowing through it from draining to the outside of the pipe and damaging any electrical element.
  • the separating element is preferably a T-shaped mounting tube.
  • This type of tube is easily connectable and the lines are easily inserted therein.
  • This T-shape is a preferred shape, but may have a variable angle. Or it may have a double T, to which more than three lines are attached.
  • the water tank has at least a second water tank vent opening disposed in the rear of the water tank, and the pressure equalization system has a second vent line connecting the second water tank vent to the second air inlet / outlet.
  • the second vent line is independent of the first vent line, and thus, with a direct vent line, the inside of the container connected to the outside of the container, and even if one of the lines would be blocked, the other would equalize the pressures.
  • the first vent line could be configured as described above, the pressure equalization system having a line separator disposed in the first vent line and dividing it into a main branch extending from the first water tank vent to the separator and at least two sub-branches Water tank vent and the main branch via the first sub-branch with the first air inlet / air outlet opening and the second sub-branch, which forms the second, spaced end portion is connected to the second air inlet / air outlet opening.
  • the second vent line has a second main branch connecting the second water tank vent to a third air inlet / outlet that is the same as or different from the second air inlet / outlet.
  • the second vent line is connected to and in communication with the first vent line, for example, by forming another sub-branch or a second main branch.
  • the first vent line may be as described above, the pressure equalization system having a line separator disposed in the first vent line and dividing it into a main branch extending from the first water tank vent to the separator and at least two sub-branches Water tank vent and the main branch via the first sub-branch with the first air inlet / air outlet opening and the second sub-branch, which forms the second, spaced end portion is connected to the second air inlet / air outlet opening.
  • the second sub-branch of the first vent line is not essential.
  • the second vent line has a second main branch connecting the second water tank vent to the separator and from there via a third sub-branch to the third air inlet / outlet, which is preferably other than the second air inlet / outlet, and above the water tank and on top of one another greater height than the second water tank vent. That is, the first and second vent line form a single vent line with two water tank vents and two or three air inlet / outlet openings. In fact, there could be a single air inlet / outlet, in which the two main branches unite in a single sub-branch, or more than three air inlets / outlets.
  • the second air inlet / outlet opening in the front part of the iron over the water tank is arranged at a certain height above the vent holes, thereby avoiding that the water in the Ironing position of the iron can reach.
  • the second air inlet / outlet opening of the pressure compensation system is located in the gripping area adjacent to the first air inlet / outlet opening and better at a location hidden from view of the user.
  • the opening is oriented so that it does not interfere with the handling of the iron and also is avoidable that, for example, by hand or otherwise unintentionally covered and thereby no pressure equalization can take place.
  • the at least one vent line is made of a flexible tube or hose, as this / this is easily pluggable in the vents and in the air inlet / outlet openings and easily adapted to the reduced space of the iron inside.
  • the tube or hose is provided with a reinforcing member, particularly in flexing areas, to keep the conduit passage open.
  • This reinforcement may be included in the structure of the tube, of the type that has a cross-wound wire reinforced structure or shell of rigid material that is not easily flattened. However, it may also be a helically wound wire of smaller diameter than the inner diameter of the hose, which is inserted particularly at the places where it makes turns or bends, thereby avoiding being crushed or clogged by external pressure.
  • the entire arrangement and design of the vent line is designed such that it is positioned or incorporated in very little space in the iron.
  • the at least one vent line includes a leak prevention system for preventing the leakage of water through the first and / or second air inlet / outlet openings.
  • This system may preferably be a valve for preventing the passage of water, which is preferably located in the first and second water tank vent and prevents the entry of water into the at least one vent line, whereby the risk of dripping is significantly reduced.

Due to the arrangement of the first vent line 50a, the second vent line 50b and the design as well as the shape of both in the iron can be achieved that the air pressure in the water tank 3 always corresponds to the air pressure P a of the environment of the iron. Likewise, it can be seen from FIG. 3 that the hole 23 of the body 2 of the iron is closed by means of a closing element 6.
  • the first vent line 50a also has an area which is advantageously arranged at least over an upper side or an outer side of the water tank.
  • the top of the water tank is realized with a continuous, rising slope and may have a slightly curved shape.
  • the vent line can be accurately and stably positioned.
  • this part of the first vent pipe is mounted above the top of the water tank, it is avoidable to move or change the position and shape of the vent pipe when the various movements are carried out with the iron and it takes various positions.
  • the vent line 50a, 50b or parts 54, 55a, 55b forming it is made of a flexible tube or hose which can be inserted into the vent openings 36a, 36b and into the air inlet / outlet openings 53a, 53b and to the reduced one Room of the iron inside is customizable.
  • the tube or hose especially in bending areas, provided with a reinforcing element to keep the line passage well open.
  • This reinforcement is a narrower, coiled, smaller diameter wire than the inner diameter of the hose, which is particularly inserted in the places where it makes turns or bends.
  • the entire arrangement and design of the vent line is designed such that it is positioned or incorporated in very little space in the iron.
  • the apparatus according to the invention may take other forms than those specifically described above. In particular, it may be realized similar to the shape it assumes in FIG. Therein is a section of the iron, which is the subject of another embodiment of the invention, shown in a phase in which the filling of the water tank of the iron takes place.
  • the iron has a rear portion 21 and a gripping portion or handle 22.
  • a water tank 3 is disposed in the iron.
  • the iron in this rear portion 21 a rear iron hole 23 through which the water tank 3 can be filled with liquid, especially with water.
  • the water tank 3 is arranged such that the water filling hole 31 in the Hole 23 of the iron body 2 opens and is hermetically closable by a closing element or a cover 6.
  • the iron on a steam chamber 4 which is located between the water tank 3 and the sole 8.
  • the sole 8 also has some steam outlet holes, not shown, which open into the steam chamber 4.
  • the iron also has a dosing tip 7, which for dripping the liquid of the water tank 3 and for opening and closing the water supply from the container into the interior of the steam chamber 4 is executed.
  • the dosing tip 7 is arranged in the front part 30 of the water tank 3.
  • a pressure equalization system 5 which has in the embodiment a first vent line having an end which penetrates into a first vent opening 36a of the water tank, which in the front part 30th of the water tank is arranged.
  • a first vent opening 36a of the water tank As can be seen from FIG. 5, it is possible by means of this first vent opening 36a of the water tank to achieve that the vent line can be exactly and stably positioned, preventing it from slipping or shifting out of the front part 30 of the water tank 3. Similarly, it can be seen from FIG.
  • a main branch of the first vent line which starts from the opening 36a, is arranged directly above the front, upper part of the water tank 3, so that an arrangement of the vent line in a stable position can be achieved.
  • This main branch of the first vent line is connected at a position in the vicinity of the rear part 21 of the iron with a line separator 2 ', which is designed as a plastic pipe piece in X-shape, in which it is plugged.
  • a line separator 2 ' which is designed as a plastic pipe piece in X-shape, in which it is plugged.
  • the first sub-branch of the four is, as already stated, connected at one end to the separating element 2 'and at its other end, which forms the first end portion of the vent opening, which is spaced from the first vent line, with a first air inlet / air outlet opening, wherein it extends with a portion of its length over the inside of the gripping portion 22 or handle of the iron to its insertion in the inlet / outlet opening.
  • the second sub-branch is connected at one end to the separating element 2 'and connected at its other end, which forms the second end portion, which is spaced from the first vent line, inserted into the second air inlet / air outlet opening, which in this embodiment in a wall / a Cover the steam chamber 4 is located.
  • This compound is reinforced with silicone and sealed to prevent leakage of water from the steam chamber.
  • the third sub-branch is connected at one end to the connecting element 2 'and at the other end to the already mentioned second container vent opening 36b, which is arranged in the rear part 32 of the water tank.
  • the separating element 2 ' is arranged at a position in the vicinity of the rear part 21 of the iron, whereby it lies behind the possible filling maximum level M of the water tank 3 to the rear.
  • the second embodiment could have a first vent line as that of the first embodiment, the pressure equalization system then having two container vents and three inlet / outlet openings, two of which, for example, in the handle and the third one would be in the steam chamber.
  • a leak prevention system 57 is provided in the form of a drip-proof valve, which prevents the passage of water. This type of valve is common in this type of equipment.
