- the user wishes to immobilize the hanger 4 in a given position, it suffices to grasp the control lever 107 and to tilt it by 90 ° to the locked position illustrated in FIG. 6B.
- the tilting of the control lever 107 towards this locked position causes the rod 181 to move upwards, because of the profile of the cam 171 which rests on the wall 142, so that the flange 108 is pressed against the wall frustoconical 163 of the liner 160.
- the upper surface of the flange 108 then rubs against the lower surface of the frustoconical wall 163 and block the rotation of the rod 181 with respect to the liner 160.
- the liner 160 being made integral in rotation with the shaft 106 by the insertion of the fingers 161 in the slots 162, the locking in rotation of the rod 181 relative to the shaft 106 prevents rotation of the hanger 4 on the mast 1 1 which is then immobilized in position. The user can then perform ironing operations without risk of rotation of the hanger 4.
- the blocking device according to this second embodiment has the advantage of being simple and economical to produce and to ensure a more powerful locking in rotation than that described in the first embodiment by virtue of the friction of the rigid material flange. against the frustoconical wall of the shirt.
- the apparatus may comprise, in addition to the hanger, an upper bar provided with clamps, extending between the two longitudinal ends of the hanger, to maintain the garment ironing.
- the hanger may also include an ironing surface, such as a curtain, which can be tensioned vertically between the hanger and a lower bar attached to the mast.
- control member of the locking device may be constituted by a lever rotatably mounted about the longitudinal axis of the rod, the lever being supported on a wall provided with reliefs forming cams so that the rotation of the lever around the longitudinal axis of the rod causes the displacement in translation of the lever along said longitudinal axis.
