Abstract

557,072. Hand irons. WESTINIGHOUSE ELECTRIC INTERNATIONAL CO. April 29, 1942, No. 5785. Convention date, March 11, 1941. [Class 138 (ii)] Hand irons fitted with means for steaming the work are arranged to facilitate the removal of matter precipitated or deposited from the water due to the generation of steam, The steam is generated by dropping through a valve 40, adjusted by a knob 42, water from the reservior 9 on a removable plug 28 flush with the sole and having a wall 31 separating the steam generating centre chamber 32 from a surrounding chamber 33 from which apertures 34 deliver steam to the work. A thermostat and setting knob 24 allow the heat to be adjusted and water is added through a filling cap 12. To prevent water sputtering over and staining the work a pad or loose mass of asbestos, glass, or aluminium wool may be put in the centre chamber 32. In a modified form the plug may have an outer wall 50, Fig. 5, into which is swaged a springy cover 52.
