Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a base for an appliance for ironing and / or degreasing comprising a reservoir extending around a compartment and relates more particularly to a base in which the reservoir comprises at least two lateral wings s' extending along two opposite sides of the compartment.
  • the tank is connected to the pump by a discharge pipe which communicates with the interior of the tank at a single point so that the water present in the tank can remain trapped in certain parts of the tank, and in particular upstream of a boss allowing the passage of the drain duct of the apparatus, and have difficulty in pouring into the discharge duct when the water level in the tank is low.
  • the user is not always able to lay the base perfectly flat so that it is possible that the base is inclined slightly in one direction does not promote the emptying of the entire tank during use of the device. Thus, the device may be forced to stop operating while there is still some water in the tank.
  • an object of the present invention is to overcome these disadvantages by providing a base for an appliance for ironing and / or degreasing comprising a reservoir winding at least partially around a compartment that can receive components of the apparatus and comprising two wings extending along two opposite sides of the compartment in which the emptying of the tank is optimized.
  • the subject of the invention is a base for a household appliance for ironing and / or steam-freeing comprising a reservoir of liquid extending around a compartment and comprising at least two lateral wings extending along two opposite sides of the compartment, the reservoir being connected to a device member by a discharge pipe at which the reservoir liquid is drawn, characterized in that the discharge duct also connects the two lateral wings of the tank.
  • Such a discharge pipe hydraulically connecting the two wings of the tank has the advantage of being supplied with liquid from the tank by each of the lateral wings of the tank so that the discharge pipe remains fed with liquid when the water level in the tank becomes low and the unit is tilted slightly to one side.

  • the bottom wall of the tank comprises a convex boss, the exhaust duct having a first end that opens into the tank on one side of the boss and a second end that opens into the tank. the other side of the boss.
  • the reservoir is a water reservoir.
  • the compartment receives at least part of a vessel for the generation of pressurized steam comprising a drainage channel closed by a plug disposed on a lateral face of the base, near the bottom of the tank, the boss of the bottom wall of the tank spanning the drain pipe.
  • Such a characteristic makes it possible to produce a particularly compact steam generating base, especially in height, while having a high capacity water tank.
  • the reservoir is constituted by the assembly of an inner part and an outer part engaging one in the other, the evacuation conduit comprising an upper part defined by the outer part of the tank and a lower part defined by the inner part of the tank.
  • Such a characteristic has the advantage of allowing a manufacturing the reservoir and its evacuation pipe, the latter having the advantage of being integrated directly into the manufacture of the tank.

  • the base is portable.
  • the invention also relates to an appliance for ironing and / or degreasing comprising an iron connected by a cord to a base as previously described.
  • the figure 1 represents a domestic ironing apparatus comprising, in a manner known per se, a portable base 1 generating steam supplied electrically by means of a cable 2 coming to connect to the electrical network, the base 1 being connected by a cord 3 to an iron 4 having a sole 40 provided with steam outlet holes, the latter being fed by a conduit integrated steam in the cord.
  • the base 1 comprises, in a manner known per se, a lower surface 10 intended to lie flat on a horizontal work plane, such as an ironing board, and has an inclined top surface comprising a location 11 for laying the iron 4 during the inactive ironing phases, this location being inclined, of the order of 20 ° to 30 ° relative to the work surface and having pads 11A projecting to thermally isolate the base 1 of the sole 40 of the iron to board.
  • the base 1 is made by assembling several plastic parts, and comprises in particular an outer part 5 made of polypropylene, advantageously translucent or transparent, defining the external appearance of the base 1 and an inner part 6 made of polypropylene, advantageously opaque, coming to fit into the volume of the outer part 5.
  • the inner parts 6 and outer 5 comprise complementary shapes which form between them a space defining a peripheral reservoir 7, better visible on the Figures 1 and 5 , the reservoir 7 having, in a horizontal plane, a generally U-shaped surrounding a central compartment 8 receiving different components of the apparatus and comprising a filling port masked by a flap 7A pivoting.
  • the reservoir 7 extends around the periphery of the base 1 and has two lateral wings extending on either side of the central compartment 8, the reservoir 7 comprising an inner wall 7B and a bottom wall 7C which are defined by a part of the inner part 6 of the base and comprising an outer wall 7D which is defined by a part of the outer part 5.
  • the base 1 comprises a control panel 12 formed on a front face of the base 1, the reservoir 7 extending along the side faces and the rear face of the base 1.
  • the tank 9 comprises controlled heating means for producing steam at a pressure greater than 4 bar, and preferably of the order of 5 to 6 bar, and comprises a drain pipe 90 comprising an end closed by a plug 13 disposed on a lateral face of the base 1, at the height of the bottom wall 7C of the tank, the latter locally having a convex boss 14 which spans the drain pipe 90.
  • the drain duct 90 also comprises, in a manner known per se, a lateral inlet 91 connected by a pipe to a high pressure pump providing a pressure of the order of 15 bar, the pump sucking water from the tank 7 for the
  • the pipe and the pump advantageously take place in a housing disposed in the front part of the base 1, under the control panel 12 in a manner similar to the apparatus described above. details in the application for FR 1456087 filed by the plaintiff.
