Definitions
- the present invention relates to an iron with a heating soleplate and a spraying device for projecting droplets of liquid, such as water, outside the surface covered by the sole.
- the micro-droplets are instantly vaporized in contact with the edge of the sole without there being a good humidification of the textile.
- the penetration of water droplets in the laundry is an important criterion to allow relaxation of the fiber and facilitate the unwinding.
- a known solution to overcome this drawback is to increase the flow so that the concentration of droplets is greater, allowing faster penetration into the textile fibers.
- a such a solution has the disadvantage of moistening the textile too much, especially when the iron is slowly moved on the laundry so that there is a significant risk that the laundry is not sufficiently dried in a single passing the sole of the iron on the humidified area.
- an object of the present invention is to provide an iron comprising a device for spraying a liquid on a spraying zone located at the periphery of the sole and means facilitating the wetting of the textile to obtain a greater ironing efficiency, with low liquid flow.
- the subject of the invention is an iron comprising a heating soleplate and a spraying device for projecting droplets of liquid onto a spraying zone P situated outside the surface covered by the soleplate, characterized in that it comprises applicator means extending outside the soleplate and coming into contact with the droplets deposited on the laundry to be ironed by the spraying device in order to make it penetrate into the laundry before the soleplate arrives on the the spray zone P when the iron, resting on its sole, is moved in translation towards the spray zone P.
- Such applicator means have the advantage of crushing the liquid droplets disposed on the surface of the laundry so that they enter the laundry before the sole reaches the spray zone P.
- the applicator means comprise a scraper element extending at the periphery of the soleplate.
- the scraper element extends between the sole and the spray zone P.
- the scraper element has a shape matching the shape of the edge of the sole.
- the scraper element and the edge of the sole are separated by a space.
- the heating sole has a front tip at which two lateral edges of the sole are joined and the scraper element extends in front of the front tip and along the lateral edges of the soleplate.
- the scraper element is constituted by a rigid wire.
- the scraper element is held by elastically deformable tabs, the scraper element extending below the level of the soleplate when it is not subjected to mechanical stress and is brought back into the mold. the plane of the sole, by deformation of the legs, when the iron rests on its sole.
- the scraper element is made of a hydrophobic material with a low heat capacity.
- the spraying device comprises an atomizer, such as a piezoelectric atomizer.
- the iron has a vaporization chamber sized to produce a maximum steam flow of the order of 20 gr / min.
- FIG. 3 is a bottom view of the iron of Figure 1;
- FIGS. 4 and 5 are perspective views of an iron according to a second particular embodiment of the invention. Only the elements necessary for understanding the invention have been represented. To facilitate the reading of the drawings, the same elements bear the same references from one figure to another.
- FIG. 1 represents a steam iron 1 comprising a sole 2 provided with steam outlet holes 20 and comprising a heel 3 on which the iron can stand vertically during the inactive ironing phases, the heel 3 being equipped with a connector, not visible in the figures, for the electrical connection of the iron to a charging base.
- the sole 2 is in thermal contact with a heating body, not shown in the figures, enclosing an electrical resistance of a power of the order of 1600 W and having a vaporization chamber sized to produce a steam flow of the order of 20 gr / min, the temperature of the sole 2 being controlled by a thermostat whose set temperature can be modified by the user by means of a knob 5.
- the heating body is surmounted by a plastic body 4 incorporating a gripping handle 40, the body 4 enclosing a water reservoir supplying the vaporization chamber through a dropper.
- the sole 2 has a pointed front end and the body 4 of the iron supports a spraying device consisting of two atomizers 6 arranged on the front face of the iron, on either side of its longitudinal axis, the Atomizers 6 producing micro-droplets of a size of the order of 40 to 50 ⁇ in diameter for moistening a spray zone P located in front of the front tip of the sole.
- These atomizers 6 are advantageously atomizers of piezoelectric type, using a technology known per se, described for example in US Pat. No. 4,533,082, each atomizer 6 being fed by the integrated water reservoir in the iron body 1.
- the iron comprises a control knob 7 advantageously located in front of the handle 40 and making it possible to control the operation of the atomizers 6 in order to send liquid to the spray zone P located in front of the front tip of the sole 2.
- the iron 1 comprises applicator means 8 extending outside the heating soleplate 2, these applicator means 8 having the purpose of mechanically penetrating the droplets of liquid inside the to be ironed before the heating soleplate 2 reaches the spray zone P moistened with the spray emitted by the atomizers 6.
- the applicator means consist of a rigid scraping wire 8 which extends along the periphery of the sole 2, at a distance from the 3 mm from the edge of the latter, so that there results a space between the edge of the sole 2 and the scraper wire 8 providing thermal insulation, the scraper wire 8 matching the shape of the front tip and side edges of the sole 2.
- the scraper wire 8 has a low thermal inertia or a low heat capacity so that the droplets of liquid coming into contact with it evaporate as little as possible if the scraper wire has reached a temperature greater than 100 ° C. .
- the scraper wire 8 is made of stainless steel or plastic, such as polyamide, and has a diameter of about 4 mm, the scraper wire 8 being supported by tabs 80 elastically deformable fixed on the body 4 of the iron and providing a flexible holding of the scraper wire 8 along the periphery of the sole 2.
- the tabs 80 hold the scraper wire 8 in a plane extending below the level of the sole 2 when the iron does not rest on its sole 2, that is to say say when no mechanical stress is applied to the scraper wire 8, the tabs 80 being sized to deform elastically under the pressure exerted by the weight of the iron 1 so that the scraper wire 8 is substantially in the plane of the sole 2, exerting a slight pressure on the ironing cloth, when the sole 2 of the iron rests horizontally on the clothes to iron.
- the iron thus produced has the advantage of providing a high ironing efficiency, the spraying device 6 allowing the user to project micro-droplets of water on a spray zone P located in front of the front tip of the sole and the scraper wire 8 to press the micro-droplets of water against the surface of the fabric to be ironed so as to penetrate into the upper layer of the textile before the hot sole of the iron comes in contact with the humidified area.
- a low flow rate steam chamber of the order of 20 gr / min, also has the advantage of allowing the realization of ironing work with good efficiency without consuming too much energy.
- the applicator means consist of a thermally inert bead 9, made for example of a thermoplastic material of the PFA (perfluoroalkoxy) type, fixed directly on the periphery of the soleplate 2, the other characteristics of the iron remaining unchanged from the iron described in the first embodiment.
- the applicator means consist of a thermally inert bead 9, made for example of a thermoplastic material of the PFA (perfluoroalkoxy) type, fixed directly on the periphery of the soleplate 2, the other characteristics of the iron remaining unchanged from the iron described in the first embodiment.
- This bead 9 has a body having a cylindrical shape and is fixed so that the lower edge of the bead 9 comes flush with the plane of the sole 2. In this way, the bead 9 rubs on the cloth at the edge of the bead. sole 2 during the active ironing phases and allows, as the scraper wire 8 in the first embodiment to ensure the penetration of micro-droplets of water through the textile before the sole plate 2 hot iron arrives on the spray area P.
- the iron spraying device may be constituted by a spray nozzle fed by a mechanical or electrical pump.
- the iron can be permanently connected to the electrical network by means of an electrical cord
- the scraper element can run around the entire periphery of the sole.
