Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Bügelstation umfassend ein Bügelbrett mit einem klappbaren Gestell, welches an einem als Säule ausgebildeten Standgerät mit einem Dampferzeuger für ein Bügeleisen angeordnet ist, wobei in der Säule ein herausnehmbarer Wassertank zur Speisung des Dampferzeugers angeordnet ist, wobei im Andockstutzen für den Wassertank ein dem Dampferzeuger vorgeschalteter Wasserfilter eingebunden ist (siehe GB-A-2 397 072 ). Aus dem Dokument DE 21 2008 000 021 U1 ist ein Dampfbügelgerät mit einem Wassertank und einer mit diesem in direkter Verbindung stehenden Siedekammer bekannt. Diese ist dazu bestimmt, den Dampf zu erzeugen, um ein Dampfbügelgerät zu betreiben. Das bekannte Dampfbügelgerät weist hierbei einen Wassertank auf, der in der Bügelstation bzw. in dem Gerät integriert ist. Dabei sind auch Geräte bekannt, die als Standgerät ausgebildet sind, welche eine Säule umfassen. In der Säule ist dabei der Dampferzeuger untergebracht, wobei in der Säule auch ein herausnehmbarer Wassertank vorgesehen wird. Der Wassertank wirkt hierbei mit dem Dampferzeuger derart zusammen, dass durch Andocken des Wassertanks in einem Einsatzschacht ein am Wassertank vorgesehener Ventilkörper, der hier gegen die Wirkung einer Feder beim Andocken betätigt wird, entweder öffnet oder beim Herausnehmen wieder schließt. Dem Dampferzeuger wird hierbei aus Sicherheitsgründen ein Wasserfilter vorgeschaltet, der insbesondere dafür Sorge trägt, dass der Dampferzeuger vor Verschmutzungen und Verkrustungen geschützt wird. So ist es aus wartungstechnischen Gründen erforderlich, dass der Wasserfilter von Zeit zu Zeit zu wechseln ist, um auf diese Weise eine betriebssichere Bügelstation vorzuhalten. Bei den bekannten Geräten gestaltet sich die Revision des Wasserfilters oft schwierig, wobei hierzu der Kundendienst in Anspruch genommen werden muss, um diese Revisionstätigkeiten vorzunehmen. Dies auch aus dem Grund, dass bestimmte Spezialwerkzeuge erforderlich sind, um diese Revisionsarbeiten durchzuführen.The invention relates to an ironing station comprising an ironing board with a hinged frame, which is arranged on a pillar standing with a steam generator for an iron, wherein in the column a removable water tank is arranged to power the steam generator, wherein in the docking socket for the water tank the steam generator upstream water filter is integrated (see GB-A-2 397 072 ). From the document DE 21 2008 000 021 U1 is a steam ironing device with a water tank and a standing directly in connection with this boiling chamber known. This is designed to generate the steam to operate a steam ironing machine. The known steam ironing apparatus in this case has a water tank, which is integrated in the ironing station or in the device. In this case, devices are known which are formed as a standalone unit, which comprise a column. In the column while the steam generator is housed, with a removable water tank is provided in the column. The water tank interacts with the steam generator in such a way that by docking of the water tank in an insertion shaft provided on the water tank valve body, which is operated here against the action of a spring when docking, either opens or closes again when removing. For safety reasons, the steam generator is preceded by a water filter, which in particular ensures that the steam generator is protected against soiling and incrustations. For reasons of maintenance, it is necessary for the water filter to be changed from time to time in order to provide a reliable ironing station in this way. In the known devices, the revision of the water filter is often difficult, in which case the customer service must be called to perform these audit activities. This is also the reason that certain special tools are required to carry out this revision work.

Die GB 2 397 072 A offenbart eine Bügelstation mit einem Bügelbrett mit einem klappbaren Gestell, die ferner als säulenartiges Standgerät ausgebildet ist. In der Säule ist der Dampferzeuger mit einem Wassertank zur Speisung des Dampferzeugers angeordnet.The GB 2 397 072 A discloses an ironing station with an ironing board with a hinged frame, which is also designed as a columnar stand device. In the column, the steam generator is arranged with a water tank for supplying the steam generator.

Aus der DE 200 20 600 U1 ist ein Dampfbügeleisen bekannt, das eine Verdampfungskammer und einen fest eingebauten Wassertank umfasst. Hierbei enthält der Wassertank eine Öffnung, in die ein Siebteil mit Entkalkungsmittel eingesetzt ist. Das Einsatzteil ragt in das Wasser des Tanks, um in dem Wasser eine chemische Reaktion zur Entkalkung zu bewirken. Ein Werkzeug ist daran aber nicht angeformt.From the DE 200 20 600 U1 For example, a steam iron is known which comprises an evaporation chamber and a permanently installed water tank. In this case, the water tank contains an opening into which a sieve with descaling agent is inserted. The insert protrudes into the water of the tank to cause a chemical reaction in the water for descaling. But a tool is not molded to it.

Der Erfindung liegt somit die Aufgabe zu Grunde, eine Bügelstation derart weiterzubilden, dass sie einfach vom Benutzer gewartet werden kann.The invention is therefore based on the object to further develop an ironing station such that it can be easily maintained by the user.

Erfindungsgemäß wird dieses Problem mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und Weiterbildungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den nachfolgenden Unteransprüchen.According to the invention, this problem is solved by the features of patent claim 1. Advantageous embodiments and further developments of the invention will become apparent from the following subclaims.

Die mit der Erfindung erreichten Vorteile bestehen nun darin, dass aufgrund eines nicht verlierbaren, im Bereich der Bügelstation vorgehaltenen Werkzeugs, der Benutzer der erfindungsgemäßen Bügelstation eine Revision bzw. Reinigung des Wasserfilters selbst vornehmen kann. Der Benutzer kann selbst eine einfache und leichte Auswechslung des Wasserfilters vornehmen, ohne einen Kundendienst zu beanspruchen. Hierzu ist zumindest auf dem Andockstutzen ein lösbares haubenartiges Element angeordnet, welches als Werkzeug zur Entnahme des Wasserfilters sowie des Dichtringes aus dem Andockstutzen nutzbar ist. Der Betreiber kann somit nach Herausnehmen des Wassertanks aus dem Schacht das haubenartige Element hier vom Schachtboden lösen, wobei dies als Werkzeug genutzt werden kann, um die Möglichkeit zu haben, hier in den Andockstutzen eingreifen zu können, und die Verschleißteile wie Wasserfilter und Dichtring heraus zu nehmen, um diese zu reinigen oder zu ersetzen. Im Boden des Wassertanks ist in einer zweckmäßigen Ausführung wenigstens ein gegen die Wirkung einer Feder verschiebbarer Ventilkörper angeordnet, der mit einem am Dampferzeuger angeordneten Andockstutzen derart zusammenwirkt, dass beim Herausnehmen des Wassertanks der Ventilkörper schließt und beim Einsetzen des Wassertanks öffnet.The advantages achieved with the invention consist in the fact that due to a non-losable, held in the ironing station tool, the user of the ironing station according to the invention can make a revision or cleaning of the water filter itself. The user himself can make a simple and easy replacement of the water filter without requiring customer service. For this purpose, a detachable hood-like element is arranged at least on the docking connection, which can be used as a tool for removing the water filter and the sealing ring from the docking connection. The operator can thus solve the hood-like element here from the shaft bottom after removing the water tank from the shaft, which can be used as a tool to have the opportunity to intervene here in the docking can, and wear parts such as water filter and sealing ring out too take to clean or replace them. In the bottom of the water tank in an expedient embodiment at least one displaceable against the action of a spring valve body is arranged, which cooperates with a arranged on the steam generator Andockstutzen that when removing the water tank, the valve body closes and opens at the onset of the water tank.

Hierbei besteht das Haubenelement aus einem Hülsengehäuse, welches den Andockstutzen im aufgesetzten Zustand teilweise abdeckt. Am Hülsengehäuse sind außenseitig die Werkzeuge angeformt, wobei diese aus einem Haken zur Demontage des im Andockstutzen angesetzten Dichtringes besteht, und aus einer Klammer, um den im Andockstutzen angeordneten Wasserfilter heraus zu holen. In Weiterbildung der Erfindung kann hierbei das Haubenelement aus zwei über einen Steg verbundene Hülsengehäuse bestehen, wobei ein Hülsengehäuse einen Entlüftungsstutzen und das andere Hülsengehäuse den Abdeckstutzen im montierten Zustand abdeckt. Denn neben der Entnahme von Wasser ist es auch erforderlich, dass zusätzlich ein Entlüftungsstutzen vorgesehen wird, um auf diese Weise das Nachströmen des Wassers aus dem Wassertank zu gewährleisten.In this case, the hood element consists of a sleeve housing which partially covers the docking stub in the attached state. On the sleeve housing outside the tools are formed, which consists of a hook for disassembly of the docking in the docking seal, and a clip to get out the arranged in the docking water filter out. In a further development of the invention, in this case, the hood element consist of two sleeve housing connected via a web, wherein a sleeve housing a vent pipe and the other sleeve housing covers the Abdeckstutzen in the assembled state. Because in addition to the removal of water, it is also necessary that in addition a vent pipe is provided to ensure in this way the flow of water from the water tank.

Hierbei ist an dem einen Hülsengehäuse der Haken und an dem anderen Hülsengehäuse die Klammer angeformt. Am Steg ist eine Öse angeformt, mit der das Haubenelement am Deckbereich des Dampferzeugers festgelegt werden kann. Somit ergibt sich eine unverlierbare Einbindung des mit Werkzeug bestückten Haubenelementes an der Bügelstation.Here, the clamp is integrally formed on the one sleeve housing and the hook on the other sleeve housing. At the bridge an eyelet is formed, with which the hood element can be set at the deck area of the steam generator. This results in a captive integration of the equipped with tool hood element at the ironing station.

Nach einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung des Steges, befinden sich an der Unterseite quer liegende Streben, die die Stegfläche stabilisieren. Um insbesondere den Einsetzvorgang des Haubenelementes korrekt zu vollziehen, nachdem dies als Werkzeug benutzt worden ist, sind in den Wänden der Hülsengehäuse Ausformungen zur Zentrierung vorgesehen, die mit an den Stutzen angeformten Streifen im gesteckten Zustand zusammenwirken. Aufgrund dieser Ausbildung wird erreicht, dass immer ein exakter Montagesitz nach Gebrauch des Werkzeugs erfolgt. Nach einer besonders vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist das Haubenelement aus einem einstückig geformten Kunststoffteil hergestellt.According to an advantageous embodiment of the web, located at the bottom transverse struts that stabilize the web surface. In order to accomplish in particular the insertion of the hood element correctly, after this has been used as a tool, projections are provided for centering in the walls of the sleeve housing, which cooperate with integrally formed on the neck strips in the inserted state. Due to this design ensures that there is always an exact mounting seat after use of the tool. According to a particularly advantageous embodiment of the invention, the hood element is made of a one-piece molded plastic part.

Die Figur 1 zeigt in der Seitenansicht eine Bügelstation 1 in der betriebsgemäßen aufgeklappten Aufstellposition, welche ein Bügelbrett 2 mit einem klappbaren Gestell 3 umfasst. Das Gestell 3 ist hierbei an einem als Säule 4 ausgebildeten Standgerät mit einem Dampferzeuger 5 für ein nicht näher dargestelltes Bügeleisen angeordnet. Wie aus der Figur 2 zu erkennen ist, ist in der Säule 4 ein herausnehmbarer Wassertank 6 zur Speisung des Dampferzeugers 5 angeordnet. Dabei ist im Boden des Wassertanks 6 wenigstens ein gegen die Wirkung einer Feder verschiebbarer, nicht näher dargestellter Ventilkörper vorgesehen. Der Wassertank 6 wirkt im aufgesetzten Zustand mit einem am Dampferzeuger 5 angeordneten Andockstutzen 7 derart zusammen, dass beim Herausnehmen des Wassertanks 6 der Ventilkörper schließt und beim Einsetzen des Wassertanks 6 öffnet. Im Andockstutzen 7 ist ein dem Dampferzeuger 5 vorgeschalteter Wasserfilter 8 eingebunden, wie dies insbesondere aus den Figuren 4 und 7 zu erkennen ist. Auf dem Andockstutzen 7 ist ein lösbares haubenartiges Element 9 angeordnet, welches als Werkzeug zur Entnahme des Wasserfilters 8 sowie des Dichtringes 10 aus dem Andockstutzen 7 nutzbar ist. In der Zusammenschau der Figuren 5, 6 und 7 erkennt man, wie sich die Demontage vollzieht, wobei nachfolgend darauf noch näher eingegangen wird.The FIG. 1 shows in side view an ironing station 1 in the operational unfolded installation position, which includes an ironing board 2 with a folding frame 3. The frame 3 is in this case arranged on a column 4 designed as a standing device with a steam generator 5 for a not-shown iron. Like from the FIG. 2 can be seen, a removable water tank 6 for supplying the steam generator 5 is arranged in the column 4. In this case, at least one against the action of a spring displaceable, not shown in detail valve body is provided in the bottom of the water tank 6. The water tank 6 acts in the mounted state with a steam nozzle 5 arranged on the connecting piece 7 such that upon removal of the water tank 6, the valve body closes and 6 opens at the onset of the water tank. In Andockstutzen 7 a steam generator 5 upstream water filter 8 is integrated, as in particular from the FIGS. 4 and 7 can be seen. On the Andockstutzen 7 a detachable hood-like element 9 is arranged, which can be used as a tool for removing the water filter 8 and the sealing ring 10 from the docking connection 7. In the synopsis of Figures 5 . 6 and 7 one recognizes how the dismantling takes place, which will be discussed in more detail below.

Das Haubenelement 9 besteht aus einem Hülsengehäuse 11.1, welches den Andockstutzen 7 im aufgesetzten Zustand, wie dies in der Figur 3 dargestellt ist, abdeckt und das Hülsengehäuse 11.2, das zur Abdeckung des Be- oder Entlüftungsstutzens 15 vorgesehen ist. Am Hülsengehäuse 11.1 und 11.2 sind Werkzeuge 12 und 13 angeformt, wobei das eine Werkzeug 12 einen Haken zur Demontage des im Andockstutzen 7 eingesetzten Dichtringes 10 umfasst, wie dies in der Figur 5 zu erkennen ist, und wobei das andere Werkzeug 13 eine Klammer umfasst, die dazu bestimmt ist, den topfartigen Wasserfilter 8 aus dem Andockstutzen 7 heraus zu holen, wie dies beispielsweise in Zusammenschau der Figuren 6 und 7 gezeigt wird. Dabei kann, wie aus den Darstellungen der Figuren 3 bis 7 zu erkennen ist, das Haubenelement 9 aus zwei über einen Steg 14 verbundene Hülsengehäuse 11.1 und 11.2 bestehen, wobei ein Hülsengehäuse 11.1 einen Entlüftungsstutzen 15 und das andere Hülsengehäuse 11.2 den Andockstutzen 7 im montierten Zustand abdeckt. Diese Situation ist in der Figur 3 zu erkennen, wie sie für den normalen Betrieb der Bügelstation 1 vorgesehen ist. Wie aus der Figur 4 zu erkennen ist, ist an dem ersten Hülsengehäuse 11.1 der Haken 12 und an dem anderen Hülsengehäuse 11.2 die Klammer 13 angeformt. Aus den Figuren 3 und 4 ist zu erkennen, dass am Steg 14 eine Bohrung oder Öse 16 angeformt ist, mit der das Haubenelement 9 am Deckbereich 17 des Dampferzeugers 5 festgelegt werden kann. Dies kann beispielsweise mit einer Schraube 16a erfolgen. Zur Benutzung des Haubenelementes 9 als Werkzeug muss nur die Schraube 16a einfach gelöst werden, um dann auf diese Weise das Haubenelement 9, wie in der Figur 4 dargestellt, abzunehmen. In der Figur 5 ist das Haubenelement 9 von seiner Unterseite her zu sehen, wobei an der Unterseite des Steges 14 quer liegende Streben 18 zur Stabilisierung der Stegfläche angeformt sind. Zu dem sind in den Wänden der Hülsengehäuse 11.1 und 11.2 Ausformungen 19 zum zentrierten Aufsetzen des Haubenelementes 9 auf die Stutzen 7 und 15 vorgesehen, die wiederum mit an den Stutzen 7 und 15 angeformten Streifen 20 im gesteckten Zustand zusammenwirken. Es versteht sich nun von selbst, dass nach Gebrauch des Haubenelementes 9 als Werkzeug, dies wieder leicht auf die Stutzen 7 und 15 aufgesetzt werden kann, wobei die Montagerichtung bzw. Vorgabe durch die Zentrierungen 19 am Haubenelement und den korrespondierenden Streifen 20 vorgegeben werden, so dass es nicht zu einem Fehleinbau kommen kann.The hood element 9 consists of a sleeve housing 11.1, which the Andockstutzen 7 in the mounted state, as shown in the FIG. 3 is shown, covers and the sleeve housing 11.2, which is provided to cover the ventilation or bleeder 15. On the sleeve housing 11.1 and 11.2 tools 12 and 13 are formed, wherein the one tool 12 comprises a hook for disassembly of the sealing ring 10 used in the docking nozzle 7, as shown in the FIG. 5 can be seen, and wherein the other tool 13 comprises a clamp which is intended to bring the pot-like water filter 8 out of the docking stub 7 out, as for example in conjunction with the FIGS. 6 and 7 will be shown. It can, as from the representations of FIGS. 3 to 7 It can be seen that the hood member 9 consist of two connected via a web 14 sleeve housing 11.1 and 11.2, wherein a sleeve housing 11.1 covering a vent pipe 15 and the other sleeve housing 11.2 the docking nozzle 7 in the assembled state. This situation is in the FIG. 3 to recognize how it is provided for the normal operation of the ironing station 1. Like from the FIG. 4 can be seen, the clip 13 is formed on the first sleeve housing 11.1 of the hook 12 and on the other sleeve housing 11.2. From the Figures 3 and 4 It can be seen that on the web 14, a bore or eyelet 16 is formed, with which the hood member 9 can be fixed to the deck area 17 of the steam generator 5. This can be done for example with a screw 16a. To use the hood element 9 as a tool, only the screw 16a has to be loosened easily, in order then to open the hood element 9 in this way FIG. 4 shown to decrease. In the FIG. 5 is the hood member 9 to see from its underside, wherein on the underside of the web 14 transverse struts 18 are formed to stabilize the web surface. To that are provided in the walls of the sleeve housing 11.1 and 11.2 formations 19 for the centered placement of the hood member 9 on the nozzle 7 and 15, which in turn cooperate with integrally formed on the stub 7 and 15 strips 20 in the inserted state. It goes without saying that after use of the hood element 9 as a tool, this can easily be placed on the nozzle 7 and 15, wherein the mounting direction or default by the centering 19 on the hood element and the corresponding strip 20 are set, so that it can not come to a misincorporation.

In Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist hierbei das Haubenelement 9 aus einem einstückig geformten Kunststoffteil hergestellt.In a further development of the invention in this case the hood member 9 is made of a one-piece molded plastic part.

Es versteht sich nun von selbst, wie das Haubenelement 9 hier als Werkzeug zu benutzen ist. Will man nun den Wasserfilter 8 ausbauen, um ihn beispielsweise zu reinigen oder zu entkalken, wird das Haubenelement 9 gelöst, wie in Figur 4 dargestellt. Dann wird das Haubenelement 9 zunächst mit dem Haken 12 derart genutzt, dass der oben am Stutzen 7 aufliegende Dichtring 10 zunächst mit dem Haken 12 entfernt wird, wie dies in der Figur 5 dargestellt wird. Dann wird das Haubenelement 9 um 180° gedreht, so dass dann die Klammer 13 zum Einsatz kommt, die dann in den geöffneten Querschnitt des Stutzens 7 so eingeführt wird, dass die Klammer den topfartigen Wasserfilter 8 umgreift, wie dies in der Figur 6 dargestellt ist. Ist dies erfolgt, wird dann das Haubenelement 9 angehoben, so dass dann die Klammer 13 den Wasserfilter 8 aus dem Andockstutzen 7 herauszieht, so dass dieser dann einfach und gut zugänglich aus der Klammer 13 herausgezogen und entsprechend gereinigt oder gewechselt werden kann. Der Einsatz des Filters 8 in den Stutzen 7 kann ohne Werkzeug 9 erfolgen. Hierzu muss der gereinigte oder neue Filter 8 in die Öffnung des Stutzens 7 von Hand eingefügt werden.It goes without saying, how the hood element 9 is to be used here as a tool. Will you now remove the water filter 8, for example, to clean or descale it, the hood element 9 is released, as in FIG. 4 shown. Then, the hood member 9 is first used with the hook 12 so that the top of the nozzle 7 resting sealing ring 10 is first removed with the hook 12, as shown in the FIG. 5 is pictured. Then, the hood member 9 is rotated by 180 °, so that then the clip 13 is used, which is then inserted into the open cross-section of the nozzle 7 so that the clip surrounds the cup-shaped water filter 8, as shown in FIG. 6 is shown. If this is done, then the hood member 9 is raised, so that then the clamp 13 pulls the water filter 8 from the docking nozzle 7 so that it can then be easily and easily pulled out of the clamp 13 and cleaned or replaced accordingly. The use of the filter 8 in the nozzle 7 can be done without tools 9. For this purpose, the cleaned or new filter 8 must be inserted into the opening of the nozzle 7 by hand.
