Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of household appliances comprising an ironing and/or steaming tool intended to be held by hand and a portable base connected to the tool by a cord and relates more particularly to an appliance in which the base includes a storage cavity for placing the tool and has feet on which the base can rest stably.
  • the base of such a device has the disadvantage of being massive, bulky, and expensive to manufacture.
  • the present invention aims to remedy all or part of these drawbacks.
  • the invention relates to a household appliance comprising a hand-held ironing and/or steaming tool and a portable base connected to the tool by a cord, the base comprising a storage cavity for placing the tool and comprising at least a first set of feet on which the base can rest stably, characterized in that the storage cavity comprises at least one end which forms a protruding part on the base and in that at least one of said feet is supported by the protruding part.
  • Such a storage cavity projecting from the base allows for a less massive and less bulky base than known bases from prior art, in which the entire storage cavity is integrated into the body of the base.
  • the base therefore has a reduced footprint and features a storage cavity that extends, at least partially, into a section forming a protrusion on the base, this section being used to support one of the base's feet.
  • the volume of the base, and particularly its width is less significant, its stability is ensured.
  • the device may also have one or more of the following characteristics, taken alone or in combination.
  • the tool is an iron comprising an ironing sole having a pointed front end, the protruding part of the storage cavity conforming to the shape of the front end and the lateral edges of the iron's sole.
  • This feature allows for a protruding part whose shape is adjusted to the shape of the front end of the iron, optimizing the volume of the base while visually highlighting the function of the storage cavity.
  • the storage cavity comprises a base and a peripheral wall which laterally delimits the storage cavity, said foot being supported by the base and/or the peripheral wall.
  • the first set of feet comprises two pads that protrude from an underside of the base and a foot disposed at the lower end protruding from the storage cavity that receives the front end of the sole of the iron.
  • the base has, in profile view, a general oval shape comprising a bulbous end and a tapered opposite end, the feet being arranged at the bulbous end of the base.
  • Such a shape has the advantage of providing very good stability at the base, with the main components of the device being located at the bulbous end of the base.
  • the base includes a carrying handle, the carrying handle being disposed at the end of the base opposite the end comprising the feet.
  • Such a feature has the advantage of simplifying database manipulation.
  • the feet are adapted to allow the base to rest on a support in a first stable position in which the storage cavity extends substantially vertically.
  • This feature helps to limit the base's footprint.
  • the base comprises a shape and/or a second set of feet adapted to allow the base to rest on the support in a second stable position, distinct from the first stable position.
  • This feature increases the ergonomics of using the base by offering the user the possibility of positioning the base in two positions, one or the other of these positions being preferable for using the device or for storing it.
  • the storage cavity is located on the upper part of the base when the latter occupies the second stable position.
  • the base includes magnetic means ensuring that the tool is held in the storage cavity.
  • This feature allows for very good ergonomics of use by simply ensuring that the iron remains in position in the base.
  • the base comprises a body made of plastic material, advantageously produced by molding.
  • This characteristic has the advantage of allowing the base to be produced at a lower cost while offering a great deal of freedom in the form that can be achieved.
  • the base contains a reservoir.
  • FIG.1 and the [ Fig. 6 ] represent an ironing device classically comprising an iron 1 and a portable base 2 connected to each other by a cord 3, partially illustrated in these figures, the base 2 being electrically connected to a domestic network by a cable, not visible in the figures.
  • the base 2 comprises a body made of plastic material, advantageously produced by molding, and contains, in a manner known per se, a reservoir 20 equipped with a filling hatch 21 and a pump, not visible in the figures, which draws water from the reservoir 20 to send it through a pipe integrated into the cord 3, towards the iron 1.
  • the iron 1 has a flat soleplate 10, surmounted by a body 11 and includes a gripping handle 12 having a front end attached to the body 11 and a free rear end projecting laterally from the body 11, the handle 12 being cantilevered relative to the soleplate 10.
  • the body 11 contains, in a manner known per se, a foundry, not visible in the figures, which is in thermal contact with the base 10 and which includes a heating element, regulated by means of a thermostat, advantageously non-adjustable, allowing the temperature of the base 10 to be maintained around a setpoint temperature of the order of 135°C.
  • the foundry is preferably made of aluminum and includes an instant vaporization chamber into which water from reservoir 20 is injected by the pump, the operation of the pump being controlled by a trigger 13 located under the front end of the handle 12.
  • the pump and the vaporization chamber are advantageously sized to allow the production of a continuous steam flow of around 25 g/min when the trigger 13 is activated.
  • the steam produced by the vaporization chamber is diffused through steam outlet holes 14 provided on a flat ironing surface of the sole 10, the latter classically comprising a pointed front end 10A and a rounded rear end 10B.
  • the cord 3 exits the iron 1 through an opening provided on an upper surface of the handle 12 and is equipped with a cord guide device 4 which maintains the cord 3 in a direction inclined towards the rear of the handle 12.
  • the rear end of the handle 12 advantageously has a beveled shape comprising a flat rear surface 12A forming, with the plane of the sole 10, a V which has an obtuse angle ⁇ of the order of 145°.
  • base 2 in profile view, has a generally oval shape and a bulbous end comprising a first series of feet 22A, 22B, 22C, called main feet, on which base 2 can rest stably in a vertical position, illustrated on the [ Fig.1 ], and a tapered end, of lesser width, equipped with a carrying handle 23.
  • base 2 has a width of between 18 and 25 cm at its bulbous end and a width of between 5 and 15 cm at its tapered end.
  • Base 2 has a rear face, substantially flat, having a second set of feet 24A, 24B, 24C, called lateral feet, advantageously made of elastomer, on which it can rest stably in a horizontal position, illustrated on the [ Fig. 6 ].
  • Base 2 also has a front face, visible on the [ Fig. 4 ], including a storage cavity 25 in which the iron 1 can be placed during inactive ironing phases and for storage.
  • This storage cavity 25 has a base consisting of a front and a rear plane arranged in a V, the front plane having protruding pads 26 on which the sole 10 of the iron 1 rests and the rear plane having a support surface 25A on which the rear surface 12A of the handle 12 rests.
  • the support surface 25A has an inclination adapted so that the rear surface 12A of the handle 12 extends parallel to the support surface 25A when the sole 10 rests against the pads 26.
  • the support surface 25A and the end of the handle 12 of the iron 1 are attracted to each other by magnetic attraction.
  • the support surface 25A may include a magnet 27 which cooperates with a ferromagnetic material, such as a metal plate 12B, disposed on the rear surface 12A of the handle 12.
  • the magnet 27 is sized to exert sufficient force to hold the rear end of the handle 12 against the bottom of the cavity 25 during transport of the base 2, but without causing the base 2 to lift when the user pulls on the handle 12 to remove the iron 1 from its storage cavity 25.
  • the user can remove the iron 1 from the storage cavity 25 without causing the base 2 to lift, whether the latter is in the horizontal or vertical position.
  • the storage cavity 25 includes a peripheral wall 25B which conforms to the shape of the front end and the lateral edges of the sole 10 of the iron 1.
  • This peripheral wall 25B advantageously extends along the edge of the front plane of the storage cavity 25 so as to guide the front end of the iron 1 laterally into the storage cavity 25.
  • the peripheral wall 25B laterally covers the body 11 over a height of less than 5 cm when the iron 1 is placed in the storage cavity 25 so as to facilitate the placement and removal of the iron 1.
  • the depth of the storage cavity 25 at the level of the skates 26 is preferably less than 5 cm.
  • the depth of the storage cavity 25 oscillates between a minimum depth, close to zero, at the level of the area receiving the rear end of the handle 12 and a maximum depth of around 5 cm at the level of the area receiving the rear end of the sole 10, the depth at the level of the area receiving the front end of the iron being less than 3 cm.
  • the front face of the storage cavity 25 and the peripheral wall 25B have a pointed end that protrudes from the base 2, this pointed end supporting one of the main feet 22A, 22B, 22C, the other two main feet being supported by the two wings 20A, 20B that protrude from the rear face of the base 2.
  • the first set of feet 22A, 22B, 22C includes two pads 22A, 22B which protrude on an underside of the base 1 and a foot 22C disposed at the underside protruding from the storage cavity 25 which receives the front tip of the sole 10 of the iron 1.
  • the front plane of the storage cavity 25, supporting the feet 26, is inclined relative to the rear face of the base 2 at an angle advantageously between 20° and 50° so that the pointed end of the peripheral wall 25B receiving the foot 22C is offset outwards from the base 2.
  • Such a feature makes it possible in particular to increase the distance between the foot 22C and the feet 22A and 22B and therefore the stability of the base 2 in the vertical position.
  • This incline of the storage compartment 25 also has the advantage of improving the ergonomics of the appliance by facilitating the insertion and removal of the iron 1 from the storage compartment 25. This is achieved by moving the iron 1 vertically when the base 2 is in the vertical position, or by moving the iron 1 horizontally when the base 2 is in the horizontal position. This incline also makes the storage compartment 25 more visible to the user, thus simplifying the placement of the iron 1 within it.
  • the carrying handle 23 has an inverted U-shaped body which has a first end 23A extending from a first lateral face of the base 2 and a second end 23B extending from a second lateral face, opposite the first lateral face of the base 2.
  • the first lateral face of the base 2 has, in the extension of the carrying handle 23, a storage sleeve 28 into which the cord 3 connecting the base to the iron 1 can be inserted by being folded into a loop.
  • Base 2 also includes a strap 5, visible on the figures 3 and 4 , which includes a first end 5A fixed in the vicinity of the first end 23A of the carrying handle 23 and a second end 5B held on the second lateral face of the base 2, at a point located in the extension of the carrying handle 23, preferably at a distance from the latter.
  • a strap 5 visible on the figures 3 and 4 , which includes a first end 5A fixed in the vicinity of the first end 23A of the carrying handle 23 and a second end 5B held on the second lateral face of the base 2, at a point located in the extension of the carrying handle 23, preferably at a distance from the latter.
  • This strap 5 allows the user to carry the device by placing the strap 5 over his shoulder, the strap 5 then being stretched, by the weight of the device, between the first 5A and second 5B ends of the strap 5.
  • strap 5 When strap 5 is not used for carrying the device, it can be placed in a storage position as illustrated in particular on the figures 1 to 3 , in which the strap 5 extends along the carrying handle 23 and along the side of the base 2.
  • the device thus produced has the advantage of providing improved ergonomics of use.
  • the base 2 of such a device has the advantage of being able to be positioned in two stable positions.
  • a first working position corresponding to the vertical position, illustrated in particular on the [ Fig.1 ] in which the base rests stably on its three main feet 22A, 22B, 22C and a second position corresponding to the horizontal position, illustrated on the [ Fig. 6 in which the base rests stably on its three lateral feet 24A, 24B, 24C.
  • the integration of foot 22C onto a protruding part of base 2, which defines the storage cavity 25 increases the stability of base 2 by distancing foot 22C from feet 22A and 22B, while simultaneously reducing the overall size and footprint of base 2.
  • the device thus produced has the advantage of having a shallow storage cavity 25, open on the front of the base 1, offering easy placement and removal of the iron 1 while ensuring stable and effective support of the iron 1 when transporting the base 2 by the carrying handle 23 or by the strap 5.
  • the carrying handle 23 also allows the base 2 to be easily tilted from the vertical to the horizontal position and vice versa, without risk of burning the iron 1, the carrying handle 23 having the advantage of being positioned opposite the part of the storage cavity 25 which receives the sole 10 of the iron.
  • strap 5 which can be placed over the user's shoulder, allows the appliance to be carried without causing significant fatigue or encumbering the hands. Furthermore, this strap 5 has the advantage of being able to be positioned for storage where it is perfectly integrated into the base 2 and does not interfere with the user while ironing.
  • the base may contain a pressurized steam generator and the connecting cord linking the base to the iron.
  • ironing includes a conduit for the transport of steam.
