  • known steam irons consist of a steam iron base with a steam chamber heated with electrical resistance and a water tank from which water is supplied to the steam chamber to generate steam. It is desired that the amount of water flowing into the steam chamber be selected in an adjustable manner relative to the correct bottom temperature of the iron adapted to the corresponding material to be ironed.
  • water is passed through an inlet port into the steam chamber, the opening space of which is variable, whereby the flow rate of the draining water circulating through it can be adjusted and thus the amount of steam generated can be changed.
  • a movable control rod is used, which has a tapered conical valve, which is guided adjustable in height in the opening of the inlet port.
  • Control rod in the vertical direction raised or lowered, wobbe the opening of the Inlet port is adjusted to the steam chamber.
  • a steam iron in which a temperature-controlled adjusting element for closing the water inlet port to the steam chamber, as soon as the temperature of the iron floor is not sufficient for complete water evaporation, is installed.
  • the adjusting element has a bimetallic bending spring, which, when the temperature for water evaporation is high, acting on a closure element which is acted upon by a spring force and arranged in the closing direction next to a valve sleeve such that the closure element leaves open the opening of the valve sleeve , Although this adjustment prevents the water from entering the evaporation chamber, but still does not protect against the entrance water, so that the bimetallic spiral spring can cool down before a sufficient amount of water has penetrated into the evaporation chamber.
  • This iron has a bimetallic element which opens the flow of water through an anti-drip valve to an intermediate chamber which is in hydraulic communication with the inlet port to the steam chamber and is controlled by the drip valve of the control rod. If the iron tray is not warm enough to evaporate water, the bimetallic element closes the flow of water through the anti-drip valve to the intermediate chamber, stopping the supply of water to the steam chamber, regardless of whether the control rod is closed or open.
  • This system requires a high number of parts, because it is expensive.
  • the invention is in particular the object of providing a steam iron with a more precise and convenient for the user control.

  • a steam iron of such features provides the user with a more precise control of the flow of water from the water tank to the steam chamber, as by an actuator as in the iron according to the invention, the user can act directly on the opening of the inlet port as water flow from the water tank to the steam chamber, and only if the user stops acting on the actuator, the water flow from the water tank to the steam chamber due to the pressure exerted by the elastic member on the movable control rod and this exerts on the inlet port, close tightly.
  • the elastic member may be a helical spring or leaf spring, a metallic spring or a spring made of plastic, which resumes its original position, the movable control rod returning to the closed position.
  • the end of the rod closest to the inlet port has a plug so that it remains plugged into the inlet port at the closed position of the movable control rod, sealing the flow of water tightly.
  • the rod plug may have a conical or cylindrical grooved seat or any other shape which, in the closed position, blocks the flow of water from the water tank into the vapor chamber through the inlet port.

  • the open position of the bar is any position of the bar that allows water to flow from the water tank into the steam chamber through the inlet port regardless of the flow. This will vary from a partial opening of the inlet port for minimum steam generation to a full opening of the inlet port, for example to carry out the cleaning of the steam chamber. This is achieved with the movement of the control rod relative to the inlet port as it is actuated by the actuator.
  • the iron also includes a handle connected to an iron body and that the actuator is located on the handle. In this way, the actuator can be operated by the hand with which the user grips the handle of the steam iron.
  • the handle joins the iron body at a front zone of the iron and the actuator is located at the part of the handle facing the iron body.
  • the actuator can be operated with the fingers of the user's hand, and if the actuator is designed as a trigger button, it can be operated and controlled with a single finger.
  • the thrust exerted by the elastic member will be sufficient to close the inlet port, but the user may with a single finger overcome the thrust applied to the rod by the resilient member and move the control rod to open the inlet port ,
  • the actuation of the actuator is mechanical, ie that the actuator is moved by the pressure of the user's hand on the same.
  • the actuator is provided in direct contact or in contact by means of bridged intermediate parts with the movable control rod, therefore, the user chains the movement of the control rod when pressing on the actuator, displacing the control rod and opening the water flow through the inlet port.

It is very advantageous because the displacement of the rod can be limited by the user and this can always press on the actuator to the end, without worrying that the opening of the inlet port will be too large and more water is introduced as desired , In a simpler design of the iron, the limiting device limits the longitudinal displacement of the control rod to the open position.

In this way, the user is warned that if he continues to operate, the water may leak through the soleplate without evaporating and wet the laundry.
  • the rod control device has a locking device for fixing the position of the control rod in an open position, without the need for the actuator to be depressed. In this way, the user can be given comfort, so that he should not press continenuously on the actuator.
