Definitions

• the present invention relates to a steam iron device for ironing and degreasing.
• Steaming steaming involves throwing steam on the piece of fabric to be treated, which can be both clothing and linen.
• the projected steam allows to relax the textile fibers, and thus eliminate wrinkles. This requires good control of the quality of the steam, as well as its temperature and quantity.
• the existing devices for vapor-freeing have the disadvantage of either a poor control of the quality of the projected steam, which results in the projection also of water drops, which is detrimental to the quality freezing or by cumbersome equipment tedious to use and long to implement, such as steaming plants with tank and having a long thick tube not flexible and difficult to move.
• a steaming plant is for example described in EP 2 610 404. To obtain steam, it is necessary to previously heat the entire tank.
• the existing entirely portable devices allow a production of only 17 to 20 grams per minute of a not very fine vapor.
• the central steam-free steaming devices comprise only a steam jet nozzle, so that if it is necessary to use a pressing operation to obtain an optimal result, it implies to use moreover a classic type iron.
• the steam ironing device for ironing and degreasing intended for steaming operations, especially vertical according to the present invention, comprises, a heating body, a boiler or the like of producing steam, a water tank, a metal soleplate pierced with holes for the passage of steam, and characterized in that the outer wall of the sole has a partially curved shape, namely that it comprises two parts, a flat front part, and a convex curved rear part to which said flat portion is tangent.
• the flat part makes it possible to iron by pressing the fabric, whereas the curved part makes it possible to approach the fabric in an avoidance movement during a wrinkling operation without the risk of hanging the fabric.
• the heating body is attached to the soleplate so as to heat it by conduction.
• the inner wall of the soleplate is attached to the soleplate so as to heat it by conduction.
• a residual water recovery system disposed at the base of said chamber, that is to say on the rear side of the soleplate, and comprising a collection duct for collecting water from the steam that has not passed through said holes, towards the tank.
• the chamber contains a filter to be deviculated.
• the deflicker filter is in the form of a buffer, consisting of an entanglement of son and / or chips.
• the steam ironing device for ironing and ironing comprises a rechargeable battery system for wireless operation.
• FIG. 1 shows a side view of the steam iron device ironing and degreasing according to the invention.
• FIG. 2 shows a perspective view of a part of the same device.
• FIG. 3 shows a partial schematic sectional view of the same device.
• an iron device according to the invention. It comprises a body 1 comprising a handle 10 and an activation trigger 11, and a metal soleplate 2.
• Figure 2 which shows the sole 2, it can be seen that the latter has contours similar to those of the soles of known iron devices, but against its outer wall 20, the one intended to come into contact with the tissue to treat, is not completely flat, it comprises in fact two parts, a flat front portion 21, and a convex curved rear portion 22, the front portion 21 extending the rear portion 22 by being tangent thereto.
• forward and back are chosen with respect to the direction of movement of the iron, knowing that, traditionally, the iron is used by pushing it, and that it is its front part, with contours giving it a sharp shape which first comes into contact with the part of the fabric to be ironed.
• the sole 2 both the flat front portion 21 and the curved rear portion 22, has holes 23 for the projection of water vapor created internally.
• the flat front portion 21 is intended to be used to iron flat by exerting pressure, as is used a conventional iron, while the curved portion 22 is intended to be used for steaming, essentially vertical, by approaching the sole 2 of the fabric to project steam.
• the curved shape allows to compensate the wrist of the operator, and to avoid hanging the fabric.
• the shape of the sole 2 in particular of its flat front portion 21, solves the ironing problems of certain textiles such as linen which necessarily require a stronger contact.
• the curved rear portion 22 makes it possible to slide on the fabric easily in all vertical positions and its temperature further eases the textile in contrast to an iron that can only come into contact with the textile in a horizontal position.
• the inner wall 24 of the sole 2 comprises wells 25 which protrude from it and whose channels 26 each coincide with a hole 23.
• Wells 25 extend into a chamber 4 in which steam V is produced by a boiler or the like, not shown.
• Part of the steam V passes through the channels 26 to open out of the sole 2 in jets J.
• the steam that does not pass through the channels 26 trickles with drops of water on the inner wall 24 to be recovered at the base in a conduit 27 for recycling purposes.
• this dewaxing element is made of metal, preferably, but not exclusively, aluminum, magnesium or stainless steel, consisting of threads or chips, and having the appearance of an iron straw type stamp.
• This design of the iron makes it possible to produce steam flow rates close to 30 grams per minute of fine, ie fine, steam, while allowing the iron device to be of a very high weight and size. reasonable for the user, even when provided wirelessly, being equipped with rechargeable batteries.
