  • the time interval t 1 is less than 2 seconds and preferably of the order of one second.
  • Such a feature makes it possible to obtain the diffusion of the standard steam flow as soon as the steam control is actuated, without being subjected to the triple click.
  • the steam outlet holes are supplied with steam by a supply circuit comprising a solenoid valve, the solenoid valve being controlled by the control module to control the emission of vapor through the holes. steam outlet.
  • the standard steam flow corresponds to a continuous emission of steam.
  • the duration of emission of the continuous flow of steam corresponds to the time of actuation of the control button.
  • Such a characteristic makes it possible to obtain a continuous flow of steam whose emission duration corresponds directly to the duration of actuation of the steam control by the user, allowing the user to directly control the flow of steam emitted by the user. the steam outlet holes.
  • the specific vapor flow corresponds to an intermittent emission of the vapor.
  • Such a characteristic makes it possible to obtain a stream of steam having more powerful jets of steam than the steam obtained during the continuous diffusion, providing better penetration of the steam into the thicker fabrics.
  • the specific vapor flow comprises phases vapor emission of the order of 1260 ms alternating with phases without vapor emission of the order of 60 ms.
  • the emission of the specific vapor stream takes place over a predetermined period.
  • Such a feature makes it possible to automatically interrupt the emission of the specific vapor flow after a predetermined time so that the device returns to a normal vapor flow emission mode without additional action on the part of the user. .
  • the duration of the specific vapor flow is less than or equal to 6 seconds and preferably less than or equal to 4 seconds.
  • Such a duration corresponds to the time usually required to perform precision work requiring powerful steam jets, such as ironing shirt collars, trouser folds, etc.
  • control button is monostable.
  • monostable switch is meant a switch having only one stable position.
  • the appliance comprises an iron provided with an ironing sole, the steam outlet holes being formed in the sole.
  • the apparatus comprises a tank for generating pressurized steam connected to the iron by a cord for transporting the steam.
  • the figure 1 schematically shows an ironing device comprising a base 1 for the production of steam connected by a cord 3 to an iron 2, the iron 2 comprising a sole 20 provided with holes 21 for steam outlet, visible on the figure 2 , surmounted by a body fitted with a handle.
  • the base 1 is connected to a domestic electrical network by a cable, not shown in the figure, and comprises a steam generator consisting of a stainless steel tank 4 comprising a heating resistor with a power of the order of 1400 W allowing to produce steam under a pressure of the order of 4 to 6 bars.
  • a steam generator consisting of a stainless steel tank 4 comprising a heating resistor with a power of the order of 1400 W allowing to produce steam under a pressure of the order of 4 to 6 bars.
  • the tank 4 is supplied with water from a tank 10 by a supply circuit comprising a high pressure electromagnetic pump 5 making it possible to inject water under a pressure of up to 15 bars, the pump 5 being controlled by a module.
  • control 6 consisting of an electronic card provided with a microprocessor, arranged in the base 1 of the device.
  • the tank 4 is connected to the iron 2 by a steam duct integrated in the cord 3 and comprises a solenoid valve EV whose opening is controlled by the electronic card 6, the latter being connected to a control button B which allows the user to control the emission of steam through the holes 21 of the soleplate, the steam button B advantageously consisting of a trigger placed under the handle of the iron 2.
  • the steam control button B is preferably of the type monostable, i.e. it can be brought manually into a depressed position and automatically returns to a rest position when no action is exerted on control button B.
  • the control button B allows the user to select two types of vapor flow emission through the vapor outlet holes 21.
  • the first type of so-called standard steam flow is advantageously constituted by a continuous flow of steam which is delivered through the holes 21 of the sole when the control button B is held in the depressed position.
  • the electronic card 6 controls the opening of the solenoid valve EV when the control button B is kept in the depressed position and commands the closing of the solenoid valve EV when the control button B is in the position rest.
  • the opening of the solenoid valve EV for the emission of the standard steam flow will be controlled by the electronic card 6 only if the control button B is kept pressed for at least a predetermined period, for example of '' order of 0.5 s, in order to prevent the EV solenoid valve from opening when the control button B is pressed briefly and involuntarily.
  • the second type of steam flow is delivered through the holes B of the sole 20 when the control button B is actuated at least three times in a row within a given period of time.
  • the electronic card 6 continuously monitors the number of actuations of the control button B taking place during a given space of time, sliding.
  • the electronic card 6 monitors over a time interval t 1 equal to one second the number of actuations of the control button B.
  • t 1 the time interval between the control button B and the electronic card 6 .
  • This second so-called specific vapor stream is advantageously constituted by a sequence of successive jets of steam which is emitted over a predetermined duration, even if the steam control B is returned to the rest position.
  • the flow of specific vapor is formed by three successive openings of the solenoid valve EV for a duration of 1260 ms, these three successive openings of the solenoid valve EV being separated by two phases of closing of the solenoid valve EV with a duration of 60 ms.
  • Such a sequential emission of steam has the advantage of allowing momentarily, and in particular each time the solenoid valve EV is opened, to obtain a jet of steam having a greater pressure than that of the steam obtained with the flow. standard steam.
  • Such a specific steam flow thus allows better steam impregnation of the thickest textiles.
  • the emission of the specific steam flow will therefore be advantageously used occasionally when the user needs more powerful steam jets for ironing areas that are difficult to iron, such as shirt collars.
  • the ironing device thus produced therefore has the advantage of offering the user the possibility of selecting a specific steam flow, in a secure and ergonomic manner, using the same control button as that used for control the emission of the steam flow continuously.
  • the need to click three times in a row in a short period of time to trigger the emission of the specific steam stream both avoids the unintentional triggering of the specific steam stream when handling the iron.
  • Such a device has the advantage of being simple and economical to use, by not requiring the use of an additional button to trigger the emission of the specific vapor stream.
  • the standard vapor flow and the specific vapor flow may have characteristics other than those described above.
  • the triple actuation of the control button in a short period of time could be used to trigger a specific flow of steam in which the emission of steam takes place continuously and continues even after the release of the steam. steam control, the interruption of the steam flow can then be obtained by, for example, actuating the steam control again.
  • the tank for the generation of pressurized steam can be integrated into the body of the iron.
