Definitions

  • the invention relates on the one hand to a method for manufacturing a chest for an ironing device, heatable with steam or liquid, for example oil.
  • the invention relates to a chest heatable with steam or liquid for an ironing device.
  • the invention relates to an ironing device provided with such a chest.
  • GB 873 881 discloses a chest which can be heated by means of a liquid, preferably saturated steam, and which is manufactured by placing a semicylindrical inner plate and an outer plate which is locally deformed at various locations on top of one another and attaching them to one another in such a manner that a multicellular space is provided between the two plates, in which all cells are permanently connected to one another.
  • the longitudinal sides of the outer plate are bent inwards and are welded to the corresponding part of the inner plate with which it comes into contact.
  • the deformed outer plate is half as thick as the semicylindrical inner plate.
  • a further method for manufacturing chests heatable with steam or liquid comprises pre-bending a plate having a thickness between 15 and 20 mm, and welding angle-shaped metal platelets having a thickness of 10 mm onto this plate and onto one another.
  • the drawback of this method is that it is very labour intensive. In addition, it results in each case in a chest where the volume between the metal platelets and the plate is relatively large.
  • the space which is formed by welding metal platelets onto said plate and onto one another thus has to be divided into at least 2 chambers which are completely separated from one another since the volume formed by said metal platelets must not, according to standards, be greater than 25 litres.
  • strong welds have to be produced, which results in deformation of the chest and requires intense finishing, such as straightening and milling of the chest.
  • EP 0 573 402 A1 describes a method for manufacturing chests heatable with liquid.
  • flexible stainless steel plates are welded to one another by laser welding with the aid of a weld seam along their periphery and with the aid of a series of weld points distributed over their surface.
  • hollow spaces are formed between said weld points by introducing a pressurized liquid between the plates which are connected to one another by weld points.
  • a drawback of this method is that this method is not suitable for manufacturing chests for an ironing device which can be heated using pressurized steam, with this pressure normally being between 6 and 13 bars.
  • the weld seams may fail under the effect of the steam.
  • the flexible stainless steel plates are also subject to strong corrosion. In addition, impure steam causes pitting corrosion.
  • EP 1 120 488 A2 therefore describes such a method for manufacturing chests heatable with steam or liquid in which the weld points are made stronger.
  • this solution does not entirely solve said problem.
  • chests which are manufactured according to this method and are heated with steam have a limited operational life.
  • said method has to result in a chest in which the latter no longer has to be straightened or milled after welding, and only has to be polished. Finally, it should produce a chest with fewer separate chambers.
  • This object of the invention is achieved by providing a method for manufacturing a chest for an ironing device, heatable with steam or liquid, in which the chest is composed of two opposite plates having a different thickness, in which the method comprises the following steps:
  • a less labour-intensive, cost-effective and simple method is obtained for manufacturing a chest heatable with steam or liquid.
  • the chest due to the smaller volume per unit area of the chest, the chest requires less compartments.
  • both plates are subject to less corrosion and pitting corrosion.
  • Providing 75 to 110 perforations per square metre results in a stronger weld joint, with the forces which occur when liquid or steam flows through the chest being distributed across the various weld points and thus preventing cracks in the weld seams.
  • a semi-automatic welding machine by MIG or MAG welding
  • the chest can be manufactured in a cost-effective way.
  • such a semi-automatic welding machine makes it possible to produce more solid weld points in an automatic manner.
  • said liquid which is provided between the plates which are connected to one another by the weld points in order to deform the hollow spaces, is water.
  • the use of water has the advantage that it is a clean liquid and, in addition, it is readily available and safe to use.
  • this periphery is preferably welded twice in order to produce a particularly strong weld joint. More specifically, this periphery can then preferably be double-welded through an angle of 6° and, in this case, the weld seam can diverge slightly.
  • a chest heatable with steam or liquid for an ironing device which is composed of two opposite plates of a different thickness, which are welded to one another by means of weld points, in which hollow spaces are formed between the plates which are connected to one another by weld points, in which the plate with the smallest thickness has a thickness of at least 2 mm and is provided with 75 to 110 perforations per square metre, in which the plates are welded to one another at the locations where these perforations are provided and along the periphery of these perforations and in which the chest is manufactured by means of a method according to the invention as described above.
  • the ratio between the thicknesses of the plates is between 1:2.5 and 1:5.
  • the plate with the smallest thickness has a thickness of at least 2 mm.
  • the thickness of the thinnest plate has to be such that it cannot corrode.
  • it has to be deformable so that it is possible to form hollow spaces between the weld points.
  • this plate with the smallest thickness has a thickness of between 2.5 mm and 5 mm.
  • the plate with the greatest thickness preferably, but without being limited thereto, has a thickness of at least 5 mm and at most 20 mm.
  • the thickness of this thickest plate has to be such that it hardly deforms during the introduction of a pressurized liquid between the plates and the weld points and to this end therefore has to have a certain thickness.
  • this is not made excessively thick, so that the chest remains flexible and can always bear against an ironing roller, even when the coating of this ironing roller wears down. Making this excessively thick obviously makes such a chest less advantageous from an economic point of view, due to the high consumption of material.
  • the perforations are preferably round perforations and preferably have a diameter of between 15 mm and 35 mm. These perforations are furthermore preferably arranged in a diamond shape with respect to one another, in such a manner that these perforations follow lines which extend at an angle to the edges of the plate with the smallest thickness.
  • the plates are made from steel, so that these are subject to less corrosion and pitting corrosion when steam flows through them.
  • This object is achieved by providing an ironing device which is provided with a chest heatable with steam or liquid according to the invention as described above.
  • the chest (1) heatable with liquid, or preferably (saturated) steam is composed of two plates (2, 3) of different thickness, referred to below as the thickest and the thinnest plate (2, 3), which are situated opposite one another and which are connected to one another by means of weld points (4) distributed across their surface.
  • the ratio between the thicknesses of the plates (2, 3) in this case is preferably between 1:2.5 and 1:5.
  • hollow spaces (5) are provided which are formed between the two plates by deforming the thinnest plate (3) and in which steam or another liquid, such as oil, can be provided in order to heat the chest (1).
  • the distance between the weld points (4) depends on a number of factors such as the diameter of the chest (1), the desired height of the hollow spaces (5) and the spatial positioning of the weld points (4) with respect to one another.
  • These weld points (4) may, for example, be arranged in the shape of a diamond, a square, a rectangle, etc. with respect to one another and may optionally be arranged along lines, these lines extending either at right angles or at an angle to the edges (3 a) of the plate with the smallest thickness (3).
  • the thickest plate (2) is designed to be as flat as possible.
  • the thinnest plate (3) is welded onto the thickest plate (2) along its edges (3 a).
  • the thickest plate (2) is then the top plate along the top of which the cloth passes during ironing.
  • the thinnest plate (3) is situated at the bottom.
  • the thinnest plate (3) is provided with perforations distributed across the entire surface thereof. These perforations can, as already described above, be made in the thinnest plate (3) in different configurations (spatial positioning). Subsequently, the plates (2, 3) are pre-bent.
  • weld points (4) are as illustrated in figure 3 , provided by welding the thinnest plate (3) to the thickest plate (2) along the periphery of the corresponding perforations.
  • a part of this periphery is preferably double-welded at an angle (a) of 6°.
  • a liquid preferably water, which is pressurized, is introduced between these plates (2, 3) which are connected to one another by said weld points (4), the pressure of the liquid being such that hollow spaces (5) are formed between the plates (2, 3) and the weld points (4) by deforming the thinnest plate (3) (see detail A in figure 1b ).
  • weld points (4) and consequently also the perforations in the thinnest plate (3) are provided at such a distance apart that, at a certain pressure of the liquid, only the thinnest plate (3) and not the thickest plate (2) will deform when the pressurized liquid is introduced between the plates (2, 3) which are connected to one another by said weld points (4).
  • the thickest plate (2) remains as flat as possible and only the thinnest plate (3) is curved.
  • the thickest plate (2) of the chest (1) can be constructed from two or more parts which pivot with respect to one another (not illustrated in the figures).
  • a thinnest plate (3), made from steel, with a bending radius of 260 mm and a thickness of 4 mm which is provided with perforations across its surface, and a thickest plate (2), made from steel, with a bending radius of 250 mm and a thickness of 10 mm [ratio thinnest plate (3) / thickest plate (2) of 1:2.5] are welded to one another at the perforations by means of a semi-automatic welding machine, resulting in weld points (4). Every 4 perforations / weld points (4) form a diamond, and are arranged at a distance of 90 mm apart.
  • the perforations have a diameter of 25 mm and are welded along their entire periphery, with an overlap through an angle (a) of 6°, in which the weld seam diverges slightly. (as is illustrated in figure 3 ).
  • the thinnest plate (3) is furthermore welded onto the thickest plate (2) along its edges (3a) (as is illustrated in figure 1a ).
  • a rim having a width of 50 mm is left between the edge of the corresponding edges of the thinnest and the thickest plate (2, 3).
