  • Such a characteristic makes it possible to have a single assembly operation in which the protection element is placed in the opening and the cord wire or wires are electrically connected to the housing. This results in a saving in assembly time and better assembly ergonomics.
  • At least a portion of the connector forms a one-piece piece with at least a part of the protection element.
  • Such a characteristic makes it possible to directly integrate the connector into a component part of the protection element.
  • the portion of the protective element forming a piece integral with the connector comprises a sleeve which is fixed on the cord.
  • Such a characteristic makes it possible to have a sheath that ensures both a protection of the cord against bending and ensures a correct positioning of the connector carried by the cord relative to the complementary shape connector disposed in the housing during the installation of the protection element in the opening.
  • the sleeve is made of plastic material by a molding process.
  • the sleeve comprises two parts articulated around a hinge, the two parts being intended to grip the cord.
  • Such a characteristic has the advantage of allowing easy mounting of the protection element.
  • the protection element comprises a fastening flange which grips the sheath.
  • the fastening flange is held in position on the sleeve by at least one elastic locking element.
  • Such a feature makes it possible to immobilize the fastening flange in a simple and economical manner.
  • the portion of the protective element incorporating the connector is overmolded directly on the cord.
  • the connector is carried by a support piece attached to the housing and the support part also supports at least one member to be electrically powered by a power cable to be connected to a socket carried by the support piece .
  • Such a feature allows to gather on the support part, near the power outlet, the various organs to be electrically powered. It also makes it possible to pre-assemble the members supported by the support piece in a step prior to mounting the support piece in the housing for better mounting ergonomics.
  • the support piece supports one or more of the following organs: a control panel, a printed circuit, a pump, a connector for the power supply of an element of the apparatus, a terminal for setting to the ground, a conduit for the transport of a fluid.
  • the apparatus is intended for ironing or straightening laundry.

  • the housing encloses a vessel for generating steam under pressure.
  • the figure 1 represents an ironing apparatus of the steam generator type, typically comprising an iron 3 comprising a housing provided with a gripping handle 30 and a steam generating base, portable, external to the iron.
  • the steam generating base comprises a housing 1 having an inclined top surface forming an iron rest 10 on which the iron 3 can be placed for storage, the housing 1 being connected to the home electrical network by a cable 9 and comprising a table 11 located at the foot of the iron rest 10.
  • the iron 3 comprises, in a manner known per se, a heating soleplate 32 having holes for the diffusion of steam and is connected to the housing 1 by a flexible cord 2 incorporating electrical supply wires of the heating soleplate 32 and that a steam duct 21, visible on the figure 3 .
  • the housing 1 encloses a tank 4 for the generation of pressurized steam disposed in a housing located under the iron support 10, the tank 4 comprising a regulated electrical resistance 40 for producing steam under a pressure greater than 4 bar and preferably of the order of 5 to 6 bars.
  • the tank 4 comprises, in a manner known per se, a steam outlet orifice disposed in the upper part of the tank 4, this steam outlet orifice being equipped with a solenoid valve 41, visible on the figure 3 , connected to the iron 3 by the steam duct 21 integrated in the cord 2, the solenoid valve 41 being controlled at the opening by a button 31 disposed under the handle 30 of the iron.
  • the housing 1 comprises a reservoir 13 of water extending along the periphery of the housing 1 and the tank 4 is supplied with water from the tank 13 by a supply pipe 12 connected to an electromagnetic pump 8 providing a pressure of 1 15 bar order, the pump 8 for regularly refilling the tank 4 with water from the tank 13 during an ironing session.
  • the cord 2 is engaged in the housing 1 through an opening 5 defined by a half-moon notch 50 which is formed on the lower edge of a side wall of the housing 1, this notch 50 being closed to its lower end by setting up a base 14, visible on the Figures 1 and 2 .
  • the cord 2 comprises at its end a protective element 6 which is positioned at the opening 5 to protect the cord 2 and stiffen it locally in order to limit its wear.
  • the protective element 6 comprises a longitudinal end having a reinforcing sleeve 60 coming to cover the cord 2 outside the casing 1, this reinforcing sleeve 60 having a frustoconical outer surface providing progressive flexion of the cord 2 .
  • the outer surface of the protection element 6 also comprises a locking rib 61 which is positioned inside the casing 1, the reinforcing sleeve 60 and the locking rib 61 coming from both sides of the lateral wall. of the housing 1 to ensure the longitudinal immobilization of the protective element 6 in the opening 5.
  • the protective element 6 is extended inside the device by an electrical connector 62, said male, comprising a body supporting connection pins 20A connected to the ends. son 20 of the cord 2, this connector 62 coming into a connector 70 of complementary shape, said female, carried by a support part 7 of the housing when the protective element 6 is placed in the opening 5 to mounting the device.
  • connection pins 20A of the connector 62 extend transversely to the longitudinal direction of the cord 2 so that, in the same movement, the operator can engage the cord guide element 6 in the notch 50 and connect the male connector 62 to the female connector 70.
  • the body of the female connector 70 is molded directly with the support piece 7, the latter being constituted by an independent piece which is attached in the casing 1 and which advantageously supports the control panel 11 of the apparatus and a printed circuit board 71 which associated with it, as well as the pump 8 so as to form a compact subset electrically powered by a power cable, not shown in the figures, being connected to a socket 72 carried by the support part 7.
  • Such a subassembly has the advantage of being able to be assembled outside the housing 1 of the apparatus, before being mounted in the apparatus, which makes it possible to improve the ergonomics of assembly by facilitating the electrical connection of the switchboard. control 11 and the pump 8.
