  • the iron 3 comprises a flat soleplate 30 surmounted by a body which comprises a gripping handle 31 comprising a free rear end projecting laterally from the body.
  • the body contains a foundry which is in thermal contact with the sole 30 and which comprises a heating resistor, regulated by means of a non-adjustable thermostat, making it possible to maintain the temperature of the sole 30 around a set temperature of the order of 135°C.
  • the foundry is advantageously made of aluminum and it comprises an instantaneous vaporization chamber into which water from the reservoir 10 is injected by the pump, the operation of the pump being conventionally controlled by a trigger carried by the iron 3.
  • the pump and the vaporization chamber are advantageously sized to allow the production of a steam flow of the order of 25 g/min continuously when the trigger is actuated, the soleplate 30 conventionally comprising holes 30A for the emission of steam (visible on the figure 9 )
  • the apparatus also comprises a base 4 on which the base 1 rests removably, the latter being provided with a handle 11 at its upper end to facilitate its transport.
  • the base 4 advantageously comprises an imprint matching the outer contour of the base and in which the lower end of the base 1 engages.
  • the base 4 comprises two telescopic masts 40 comprising an upper end supporting a rigid ironing board 5 comprising an ironing surface, advantageously flat, intended to be covered with a cover, not shown in the figures, and on which laundry to be smoothed can be arranged.
  • the ironing board 5 is pivotally mounted on the end of the masts 40 by means of a hinge device making it possible to immobilize the ironing board 5 according to different inclinations and advantageously in a vertical position, in a horizontal position, and in an intermediate position, illustrated on the figure 1 , in which the ironing board 5 advantageously forms an angle of the order of 30° with respect to the vertical.
  • This hinge device is for example in accordance with that described in more detail in the patent application filed in France by the applicant under the filing number FR 1756063 .
  • one of the telescopic masts 40 supports an arm 7 comprising an opening 70 into which the mast 40 is inserted, the arm 7 conventionally comprising, at this opening 70, a clamping lever (not shown in the figures ) to fix the arm on the mast 40 at the height desired by the user.
  • the arm forms a base 7 on which is arranged a support device 8 intended to receive the iron 3 during inactive ironing/crease-smoothing phases, the support device 8 being advantageously fixed in a removable manner on the base 7 and being able to be fixed on the latter according to several distinct orientations.
  • the support device 8 comprises a plastic body having a substantially flat surface forming a protective screen 80 extending opposite the soleplate 30 of the iron, when the iron 3 rests on the support device 8 in a storage position shown on figure 1 and 2 .
  • This protective screen 80 is advantageously inclined by about 10° with respect to the vertical plane, when the support device 8 is attached to the arm 7, the protective screen 80 preferably comprising two ribs 81 in relief supporting thermally insulating pads 82 against which the sole 30 can possibly come to rest when the iron 3 rests on the support device 8.
  • the support device 8 also comprises a retaining hoop 83 which laterally extends the protective screen 80 and forms a loop extending in front of the protective screen 80, the hoop 83 laterally enveloping a part of the body of the iron 3 .
