Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an ironing device which is made easy to use by bringing a thermostat tab and a grip close to each other. <P>SOLUTION: The iron has a handle 5 arranged above a base 2 heated by a heater (not illustrated) and having a space portion 6 and a grip portion 7, a thermostat 8 to adjust the temperature of the base 2 by controlling the passage of electricity to the heater, a thermostat tab 9 to set the temperature of the base 2, a temperature regulation section 11 to finely regulate temperature setting in conjunction with the thermostat tab 9, and an operating rod 13 to connect the temperature regulation section 11 and the thermostat 8. The thermostat tab 9 is arranged ahead of the grip portion 7, the temperature regulation section 11 is arranged behind the thermostat tab 9, and the upper portion of the operating rod 13 is bent rearward. Since the distance between the thermostat tab 9 and the grip portion 7 is short, a user can easily operate the tab to regulate the temperature to one suitable to clothing to be ironed and ease of use is improved. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI

Description

従来、この種のアイロンとして、握り部前方に設けた温度調整部で、アイロン掛けを行う衣類に適した温度に調整できるようにしたものがある(例えば、特許文献1参照)。   Conventionally, as this type of iron, there is one in which a temperature adjustment unit provided in front of the grip portion can be adjusted to a temperature suitable for clothing to be ironed (for example, see Patent Document 1).

図2は、前記特許文献1に記載された従来のアイロンを示すものである。以下その構成について説明する。   FIG. 2 shows a conventional iron described in Patent Document 1. In FIG. The configuration will be described below.

アイロン本体14の下方には、ヒータ15によって加熱され、水を気化させる気化室16を有するベース17と、ベース17の上方に断熱板18を介して配置した貯水用のタンク19と、ベース17の上方に配設し空間部20と握り部21を有した把手22と、ヒータ15への通電を制御してベース17を任意の温度に調節するサーモスタット23と、サーモスタット23によって調節されるベース17の温度を設定し、前後に軸(図示せず)を有し握り部21前方に設けたサーモツマミ24と、サーモツマミ24と連動し、サーモツマミ24の後側の軸より後方に配設し、温度設定を微調整する温度調整部25と、温度調整部25とサーモスタット23を連係させ上部が温度調整部25の軸芯と同一である作動棒26が設けられている。   Below the iron body 14, a base 17 having a vaporization chamber 16 that is heated by a heater 15 to vaporize water, a water storage tank 19 disposed above the base 17 via a heat insulating plate 18, A handle 22 disposed above and having a space portion 20 and a grip portion 21, a thermostat 23 for controlling energization to the heater 15 to adjust the base 17 to an arbitrary temperature, and a base 17 adjusted by the thermostat 23 A temperature is set, and a thermo knob 24 provided in front of the grip 21 having a shaft (not shown) at the front and rear, and interlocked with the thermo knob 24, are arranged behind the shaft on the rear side of the thermo knob 24 to set the temperature. A temperature adjustment unit 25 for fine adjustment, and an operating rod 26 in which the temperature adjustment unit 25 and the thermostat 23 are linked and the upper part is the same as the axis of the temperature adjustment unit 25 are provided.

以上のように構成されたアイロンについて、その動作を説明する。アイロン掛けをするときは、使用者はアイロン掛けをする衣類に合わせた温度に設定するために、アイロン本体14に設けたサーモツマミ24を回動させて任意の温度に調節する。
特開昭61−164600号公報

以下、本発明の実施の形態について、図面を参照しながら説明する。なお、本実施の形態によって本発明が限定されるものではない。   Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Note that the present invention is not limited to the embodiment.

(実施の形態1)
図1は、本発明の第1の実施の形態におけるアイロンの側面図である。
(Embodiment 1)
FIG. 1 is a side view of an iron according to a first embodiment of the present invention.

図1において、1はアイロン本体で、ベース2はヒータ(図示せず)によって加熱され水を気化させる気化室(図示せず)を有したものであり、タンク3は貯水用にベース2の上方に断熱板4を介して配置したものであり、把手5はベース2の上方に配設し空間部6と握り部7を有している。サーモスタット8はヒータへの通電を制御してベース2の温度を調節する温度制御手段となるもので、サーモツマミ9は、前後に軸9a、9bを有し、使用者が温度設定するための操作部10を有しサーモツマミ9によって調節されるベース2の温度を回転式で設定するためのものである。   In FIG. 1, 1 is an iron body, a base 2 has a vaporizing chamber (not shown) that is heated by a heater (not shown) and vaporizes water, and a tank 3 is located above the base 2 for water storage. The handle 5 is disposed above the base 2 and has a space 6 and a grip 7. The thermostat 8 serves as a temperature control means for adjusting the temperature of the base 2 by controlling energization to the heater. The thermo knob 9 has shafts 9a and 9b at the front and rear, and an operation unit for the user to set the temperature. 10 is for setting the temperature of the base 2 which is adjusted by the thermo knob 9 in a rotary manner.

温度調整部11は、サーモツマミ9と連動し温度設定を微調整する温調ねじ12を有し、作動棒13は、温度調整部11の動きをサーモスタット8に伝えるためのものであり、サーモツマミ9は、把手5の握り部7前方に配して設け、温度調整部11はサーモツマミ9の後側の軸9bより後方に配して設けるとともに、図1に示すように、作動棒13を上部で後方に屈曲させて構成している。また空間部6の前側の一部を温度調整部11より前方に設けている。   The temperature adjusting unit 11 has a temperature adjusting screw 12 that finely adjusts the temperature setting in conjunction with the thermo-knob 9, and the operating rod 13 is for transmitting the movement of the temperature adjusting unit 11 to the thermostat 8. The handle 5 is provided in front of the grip 7 and the temperature adjusting part 11 is provided behind the rear shaft 9b of the thermo knob 9 and, as shown in FIG. It is configured to be bent. Further, a part of the front side of the space portion 6 is provided in front of the temperature adjustment portion 11.

以上のように構成されたアイロンについて、以下その動作、作用を説明する。   About the iron comprised as mentioned above, the operation | movement and an effect | action are demonstrated below.

Since the operability is improved when the unit 10 is operated, the usability of the iron body 1 can be improved.

また、空間部6の前側の一部を温度調整部11より前方に設けたので、使用者の握り部7を握る位置が前方に移動し、サーモツマミ9との距離がさらに近くなり、使用者がアイロン掛けをする衣類に合わせた温度に設定する時に、操作部10を確実に操作することができ、使い勝手をさらに向上させることができる。   Further, since a part of the front side of the space portion 6 is provided in front of the temperature adjustment portion 11, the position where the user grips the grip portion 7 moves forward, and the distance from the thermo knob 9 is further reduced. When the temperature is set according to the clothes to be ironed, the operation unit 10 can be reliably operated, and the usability can be further improved.

以上のように、本発明にかかるアイロンは、サーモツマミの操作部の操作が容易で、使い勝手に優れているので、衣類等のしわ伸ばしを行うアイロンに限らず、各種熱器具にも広く適用できるものである。   As described above, the iron according to the present invention is easy to operate the operation part of the thermo knob and is easy to use. Therefore, the iron can be widely applied to various heat appliances as well as irons for wrinkle stretching of clothes and the like. It is.
