Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Baugruppe eines elektrischen Anschlusses zur Integration in ein Dampfbügeleisen, sowie ein Dampfbügeleisen, insbesondere zur Verwendung im häuslichen Bereich.The invention relates to an assembly of an electrical connection for integration into a steam iron, and a steam iron, in particular for use in the home.
Moderne Dampfbügeleisen haben gewöhnlich zumindest einen Thermostat zur Einstellung einer Sohlensolltemperatur und eine Temperatursicherung zur Vermeidung einer Überhitzung des Dampfbügeleisens. Wie in der
Aufgrund der vorskizzierten unterschiedlichen Bauelemente des mechanischen Thermostats und des elektronischen Thermostats erfordert die Montage des jeweiligen Dampfbügeleisens unterschiedliche Montage- bzw. Fertigungsschritte. Hierdurch ist es nicht möglich, ein Dampfbügeleisen mit einem mechanischen Thermostat oder optional mit einem elektrischen Thermostat auf beispielsweise einer gleichen Montagelinie zu fertigen.Due to the vorskizzierten different components of the mechanical thermostat and the electronic thermostat, the installation of the respective steam iron requires different assembly or manufacturing steps. As a result, it is not possible to manufacture a steam iron with a mechanical thermostat or optionally with an electric thermostat on, for example, a same assembly line.
Zur Integration eines Temperaturfühlers zum Weiterleiten eines Temperatursignals an eine Steuerelektronik im Dampfbügeleisen sind verschiedene Verfahren bekannt. Zum einen können der Temperaturfühler und die Temperatursicherung einzeln in das Dampfbügeleisen intergiert werden. Die einzelne Anordnung ist jedoch aufwendig und insofern schwierig, als dass beispielsweise die Befestigung an dampfbügelseitigen Aufnahmen durch bereits installierte Bauelemente erschwert sein kann. Zum anderen kann beispielsweise der Temperaturfühler in die Temperatursicherung integriert sein. Eine derartige Temperatursicherungs-Temperaturfühlereinheit ist jedoch verhältnismäßig kostenintensiv.For integrating a temperature sensor for forwarding a temperature signal Control electronics in the steam iron, various methods are known. On the one hand, the temperature sensor and the temperature fuse can be individually integrated into the steam iron. However, the single arrangement is complicated and thus difficult, as that, for example, the attachment to steam iron side recordings can be complicated by already installed components. On the other hand, for example, the temperature sensor can be integrated into the temperature fuse. However, such a temperature fuse temperature sensing unit is relatively expensive.

Zudem hat die Baugruppe einen Ersatzkörper zur Befestigung an einer weiteren Aufnahme des Dampfbügeleisens. Ferner hat die Baugruppe ein formstabiles (maßhaltigen) Verbindungselement, mittels dessen die Temperatursicherung und der Ersatzkörper starr zueinander ausgerichtet sind.An assembly according to the invention of an electrical connection for integration into a steam iron has a temperature fuse to prevent overheating of a soleplate of the steam iron, which can be fastened to a receptacle of the steam iron. In addition, the assembly has a replacement body for attachment to another recording of the steam iron.

Die erfindungsgemäße Baugruppe hat die gleichen Anbindungspunkte wie ein mechanisches Thermostat, wodurch ein Dampfbügeleisen quasi auf einer einzigen Montagelinie mit einem mechanischen Thermostat oder mit einem elektrischen Thermostat ausgestattet werden kann. Hierdurch wird zum einen eine hohe ausstattungsseitige Flexibilität der Dampfbügeleins geschaffen. Zum anderen wird der Montagaufwand reduziert. Insbesondere werden Montagezeiten und somit Montagekosten reduziert. Zusätzliche Kabel zur Integration der Temperatursicherung und des elektrischen Thermostats in einen dampfbügelseitigen elektrischen Stromkreis sind nicht notwendig. Dieser Aufbau ist besonders vorteilhaft, wenn der elektrische Kreis des Bügeleisens als starres Leitungsbahnsystem, an das die Baugruppe oder der Satz von mechanischem Thermostat und Temperatursicherung angeschlossen werden kann, ausgebildet ist.The assembly according to the invention has the same connection points as a mechanical thermostat, whereby a steam iron can be equipped quasi on a single assembly line with a mechanical thermostat or with an electric thermostat. As a result, on the one hand, a high equipment-side flexibility of Dampfbügeleins created. On the other hand, the installation effort is reduced.

This ensures that the quasi short circuit is established only between an electrical connection point of the circuit point and the temperature fuse. An unintentional short circuit due to short circuiting of several connection points of the circuit is thus prevented.
Bevorzugterweise ist das Verbindungselement elektrisch leitend und erstreckt sich zwischen einem elektrischen Anschluss der Temperatursicherung und dem elektrisch leitenden Körperabschnitt des Ersatzkörpers. Hierdurch kann auf weitere elektrische Bauelemente wie Kabel oder Drähte verzichtet werden, um die elektrische Verbindung zwischen der Temperatursicherung und dem Ersatzkörper zu schließen.Preferably, the connecting element is electrically conductive and extends between an electrical terminal of the thermal fuse and the electrically conductive body portion of the replacement body.

Bei einem Ausführungsbeispiel ist an der Temperatursicherung ein Temperaturfühler zur Weiterleitung eines Temperatursignals als ein elektrisches Signal von der Sohle an eine Auswerteeinheit einer Steuerelektronik angebunden. Die Befestigung des Temperaturfühlers an der Temperatursicherung erfolgt bevorzugterweise vor der Integration der Baugruppe in das Dampfbügeleisen, sodass bei der Baugruppenmontage automatisch bzw. gleichzeitig auch der Temperaturfühler montiert wird.In one embodiment, a temperature sensor for forwarding a temperature signal as an electrical signal from the sole to an evaluation of an electronic control unit is connected to the thermal fuse. The attachment of the temperature sensor to the temperature fuse is preferably carried out before the integration of the assembly in the steam iron, so automatically or simultaneously the temperature sensor is mounted in the assembly assembly.

Das Dampfbügeleisen lässt sich aufgrund von gleichen Anbindungspunkten des elektrischen Anschlusses mit einem mechanischen Thermostat auf einer gemeinsamen Montagelinie fertigen, sodass das Dampfbügeleisen im Vergleich zum eingangs genannten Stand der Technik zeitreduziert und kostengünstig herzustellen ist. Es ist noch vorteilhafter, wenn der mechanische Thermostat zusammen mit der Temperatursicherung an den gleichen Aufnahmen wie die Baugruppe befestigt werden können.An inventive steam iron has an electrical connection having an assembly according to the invention, with a thermal fuse, a replacement body and with a dimensionally stable connection element, wherein the thermal fuse and the replacement body attached to a respective receptacle of the steam iron and on the electrical connection of the iron are connected.

Der Ersatzkörper 62 ersetzt den Schaltkörper 30. Er dient in dem gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel zur mechanischen Anbindung an den zweiten Leitungsbahnanschluss 20 sowie zum Kurzschließen des Verbindungselements 32 mit dem dritten Anbindungspunkt 22. Er hat somit keine schaltungsrelevante Funktion, sondern ist quasi ein "Dummy bzw.
