DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an ironing apparatus for wrinkling clothes and the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Heretofore, this type of ironing apparatus has adopted a configuration as shown in, for example, Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open Publication No. 57-181297, and specifically has a structure as shown in FIG. . That is, the base 1 on which the vaporization chamber 101 is formed
02, a tank 104 having a water inlet 103 disposed above the vaporization chamber 101, a valve device 105 for controlling the supply of water in the tank 104 to the vaporization chamber 101, and an operation button 106 for operating the valve device 105. The valve device 105 is opened and closed by manual operation of the operation button 106.

[0003]

However, in the case of such a structure, when the ironing work is completed and stored and stored, if the operation of pressing the operation button 106 is forgotten and the valve device 105 is left open, However, there is a problem that water remaining in the tank 104 flows into the vaporization chamber 101 and corrodes the base 102.

[0004] Further, when the iron body falls over during storage, there is a problem that water remaining in the tank 104 flows out. Therefore, the residual water in the tank 104 must be surely drained before storage and storage, and it takes time and effort to clean up after use.

[0005] The present invention, be stored accommodated remain water remaining in the tank, and the purpose of obtaining a risk-free ironing device base or the like is corroded.

[0006]

[0007]

[0008]

Then SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention to achieve the above Symbol purpose is base is heated by the heater
The vaporization chamber formed on this base, above the vaporization chamber
There is a tank that has been placed, and a water inlet to fill the tank
Iron body to be mounted
And the iron on the stand
And a case body mounted on a stand.
The water inlet of the tank is closed by wearing .

[0009]

[0010]

[0011]

The operation of this technical means is as follows.
That is, the ironing device of the present invention has the above configuration,
Ironing after work is completed, the wearing the case body for housing over the iron body, it is possible to stop the supply of water to the vaporization chamber closes the water inlet of the tank, to reliably prevent the corrosion of such base over scan After storage and storage ,
Even if the iron body accidentally falls, the water in the tank starts to flow
It is gone .

[0012]

[0013]

[0014]

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In FIG. 1, reference numeral 11 denotes a base heated by a heater 12, and a vaporization chamber 14 covered with a lid 13.
Is formed. Reference numeral 15 denotes a cover for covering the upper surface side of the base 11, and reference numeral 16 denotes a detachable tank having a water inlet 17 formed at an upper portion thereof. The tank is opposed to a nozzle 18 provided at the bottom and is sealingly connected to the vaporization chamber 14 by a packing 19. .

Reference numeral 20 denotes a nozzle 1 provided at the bottom of the tank 16.
The valve device opens and closes by repeatedly pressing the operation button 21 to move up and down, and opens and closes the nozzle 18 via an opening / closing rod 22 interlocked with the operation button 21. When the operation button 21 is at the upper position, the water in the tank 16 is supplied to the vaporization chamber 14 via the nozzle 18 and the packing 19, and when the operation button 21 is at the lower position, the nozzle 18 is closed. The supply of water to the vaporization chamber 14 is stopped.

Reference numeral 23 denotes a stand on which the iron main body 10 is placed, and 24 denotes a case body which is mounted on the stand 23 so as to cover the iron main body 10, and a lock device (not shown).
With this, it is detachably connected to the stand 23. Above the inner surface of the case body 24, a protruding portion 25 protruding inward is formed at a position facing the operation button 21 of the iron body 10, and the iron body 10 placed on the stand 23 is By covering with the body 24, the protrusion 25 presses the operation button 21 so that the nozzle 18 is closed.

In FIG. 2, reference numeral 26 denotes a case body 24.
A rubber member screwed above the inner surface of the iron body 1, which is disposed to face the water inlet 17 of the tank 15 provided in the iron body 10, and is mounted on the stand 23.
0 is covered with a case body 24, so that the rubber member 25
With this, the water inlet 17 is closed.

Next, the operation of the configuration of the embodiment will be described. First, in a state where the operation button 21 is positioned upward, the spring 20a pulls the opening / closing rod 22 upward to open the nozzle 18, so that the water in the tank 16 is supplied to the vaporization chamber 14 via the nozzle 18, Steam can be spouted.

When the steam injection is stopped, the operation button 21 is pushed down by overcoming the spring 20a, whereby the opening / closing rod 22 is pushed down, the nozzle 18 is closed, and the steam is supplied to the vaporization chamber 14. Instead, it is in a "dry" state, and ironing work is generally performed while switching between "dry" and "steam".

Next, the operation at the time of storage after the ironing operation will be described in detail. When the iron main body 10 is placed on the stand 23 and the case body 24 is mounted on the stand 23, even if the operation button 21 of the iron main body 10 is located at the upper side even if the worker forgets the pushing-down operation, the operation button 21 The projection 25 of the case body 24 formed at a position opposed to the above pushes down the operation button 21 to close the nozzle 18.

Therefore, even if water remains in the tank 16, it is not supplied to the vaporization chamber 14, there is no need to discharge the residual water after use, and the operation button 21 is depressed downward. Also, the base 11 and the like do not corrode during storage.

The replacement of air in the tank 16 is stopped by closing the water inlet 17 in a watertight manner by a rubber member 26 attached to a position opposite to the water inlet 17 of the tank 16.
To stop the water supply to the vaporization chamber.
Moni, after storage storage, even in the case of a fall by mistake tank 16
The remaining water inside does not flow out.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the case 24
The valve device 20 or the water inlet 17 is configured to be closed independently in response to the mounting on the stand 23, but these may be performed simultaneously.

In addition to covering the iron body placed on the stand with the case body as in the embodiment, the case body is mounted on this iron body so as to cover the iron body, and the case body is mounted on the iron body. In response, these valve devices or water inlets can be closed, so that the intended purpose can be easily achieved.

[0025]

As described above, the present invention uses a heater
The base to be heated, the vaporization chamber formed in this base,
A tank placed above the vaporization chamber, where water enters the tank.
Iron body having a water inlet and the iron body
And a stand for covering the iron body.
A case attached to the case,
Close the water inlet of the tank by attaching to the stand
Therefore, the replacement of air in the tank and the atmosphere must be stopped.
Forgot to close the valve device
Even if the water remaining in the tank flows out to the vaporization chamber
And prevent corrosion of the base etc.
In both cases, even if the iron body accidentally falls after storing and storing
It is also possible to prevent the water in the tank from flowing out.
