- the movable wall is advantageously constituted by a brass membrane 111 having an outer face, facing outwardly of the pumping chamber 110, on which is fixed a piezoelectric actuator 111A ceramic.
- Maintaining the membrane 111 against the seal 113 is made by means of a cover 102 attached to the support 101, the cover 102 having a circular rib 120 projecting against the face external of the membrane 111, opposite the seal 113.
- the support 101 also receives a base 103 opposite the cover 102, this base 103 supporting the intake ducts 131 and discharge 132 of the pump.
- the support 101, the cover 102 and the base 103 are made of a plastic material reinforced with glass fibers, such as a polyarylamide loaded with 30% glass fibers and are kept under stress against each other. the other by means of an elastic clip 104 having the shape of a metal strip with spring effect engaging between guide ribs 123, 134 formed respectively at the periphery of the cover 102 and the base 103.
- the cover 102 comprises supply terminals 121, 122 which are electrically connected to the membrane 111 and to the piezoelectric actuator 111A, and which are fed, in a manner known per se, by an alternating electrical voltage causing a periodic deformation of the piezoelectric actuator 111 A and the flexible membrane 111 in the direction of the increase and then the reduction of the volume of the pumping chamber 110.
- a supply circuit of the piezoelectric actuator is for example described in the application of Patent FR 08 01706.
- the lower face of the membrane 111 is covered with an insulating film 111 B constituted by three polyester films held on one another by means of an adhesive, as described more precisely in the patent application FR 08 03520.
- the intake ducts 131 and delivery ducts 132 open respectively facing an inlet orifice 114 and an outlet orifice 115 passing through the support 101, the pump 100 being arranged vertically in the so that the outlet port 115 of the pumping chamber 110 is placed above the level of the inlet port 114 when the iron is in a current operating position, i.e. to say lies on its sole 1.
- the inlet orifice 114 is disposed substantially in the center of the pumping chamber 110 so as to be opposite the maximum deflection area of the diaphragm 111, where the negative pressure is greatest.
- the outlet orifice 115 is in turn preferably disposed near the periphery of the pumping chamber 110, the pump 100 being placed vertically in the iron so that the outlet orifice 115 is substantially at the top of the pumping chamber 110 when the iron rests flat on its sole 1.
- the dead volume of the pumping chamber 110 is reduced essentially to a groove 116, with a depth of about 1 mm, extending between the inlet and outlet openings 114 on the face of the support 101 opposite the cover 102, this groove 116 for channeling the air bubbles towards the outlet orifice.
- the correct positioning of the cover 102 and the base 103 on the support 101 is provided by means of three centering tabs 117 carried by the support 101, these centering tabs 117 cooperating with the periphery of the cover 102. and with notches 103B at the periphery of the base 103.
- a silicone film 105 is interposed between the support 101 and the base 103 to make valves 151, 152 opposite the inlet orifice 114 and the outlet orifice 115, the positioning of the film 105 on the base 103 being provided by means of notches 150 formed at the periphery of the film, these notches 150 engaging around bosses 130 carried by the base 103.
- the valve 152 facing the outlet orifice 115 is formed by means of a cutout 152A in the shape of a circular arc forming a flexible cover facing a recess 133 formed in the circular base 103, the valve 152 opening in the recess 133 when water is compressed in the pumping chamber 110 and closed when the piezoelectric actuator 111 A deforms in the direction of increasing the volume of the pumping chamber 110.
- Such a construction combined with the presence of the accumulation tower water 16 downstream of the pump 100 has the advantage of allowing very simply the creation of a non-return valve, the presence of water in the conduit 14 creating a pressure downstream of the valve 152 generating a restoring force , depending on the height of the water column, tending to keep the valve 152 closed.
- Such a characteristic is particularly interesting because it allows, when the pump 100 is stopped, to prevent the water downstream of the valve 152 from flowing by gravity through the pump 100 and the tank 3.
- the valve 151 facing the inlet orifice 114 is also made by means of a cutout 151A in the form of a circular arc forming a flexible cover facing a circular recess 118 formed in the support 101, the valve 151 closing when the water in the pumping chamber 110 is compressed by the membrane 111 and opening when the piezoelectric actuator 111 A deforms in the direction of increasing the volume of the pumping chamber 110.
- the vertical position of the pump 100 in the iron, with the outlet orifice 115 disposed above the inlet orifice 114, has the advantage of allowing the formation of a column of water downstream of the valve 152 thus creating a pressure generating a restoring force tending to keep the valve 152 closed. Such a feature allows without using a return spring, to keep closed the valve 152 when the pump 100 is stopped.
- the cutouts 151 A, 152A in the form of a circular arc extend angularly less than 180 ° and are oriented in the same direction so that a large strip of material extends between the cutouts 151A. , 152A.
- Such a characteristic makes it possible to obtain a good stability of the film 105 at the edges of the cuts 151A, 152A by reducing in particular the risk of deformation of the valves 151, 152 in the direction of the opening during the compression of the film 105 between the support 101 and the base 103.
- the iron thus produced has the advantage of having a powerful piezoelectric pump capable of eliminating any air bubbles that can penetrate into the pumping chamber, the air bubbles naturally tend to be driven upwards by direction of the outlet orifice by the water coming from the reservoir.
- We thus obtain an iron allowing produce a large amount of steam for high ironing efficiency and having stable performance over time.
- the shape of the pumping chamber or the assembly means of the pump elements can be modified.
