DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a portable small iron according to the present invention. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a portable small iron according to the present invention. The main body lower part 8 has an ironing board 7
Is provided. The ironing board 7 is subjected to heat treatment such as fluororesin coating in the same manner as a heat-resistant sheet used for a normal ironing board.

The heating part 3 of the upper part 2 of the main body employs a ceramic heater or the like so as not to damage the ironing object 9, and an operation switch 4 for controlling the heating part 3 is slid so that the temperature can be manually adjusted. The temperature can be automatically adjusted by simply using a switch or by simply turning on the operation switch 4 at one end. The operation can be freely selected so that the operation can be automatically or manually switched.

The upper part 2 of the main body is provided with a battery accommodating chamber for accommodating a battery. The battery 1 can be used by selecting either a rechargeable battery 1a or a dry battery 1b, which is very economical. is there.

Since the portable small iron of the present invention has the above-described configuration, when it is used, the ironing object 9 is sandwiched between the lower body 8 and the upper body 2 as shown in FIG. Since the operation switch 4 for controlling the heat generating portion 3 is provided, the ironing object 9 is not discolored or damaged because the ironing time is too long.

Between the lower body 8 and the upper body 2 described above,
By sandwiching a handkerchief or thin cloth moistened with the iron object 9, an effect equivalent to that of a steam iron can be obtained.
