[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Field of Industrial Application] Cleaning methods are roughly classified into a dry cleaning method (dry washing) and a laundry cleaning method (water washing). The present invention is a novel washing method, that is, a wet cleaning method, in which a vacuum treatment is performed while a textile product such as clothes is moistened, and dirt that is floated by moisture is absorbed. The present invention relates to an iron capable of executing a new washing method, which can be called (wet washing). In other words, the present invention is configured so that the spraying operation and the suction operation can be performed, and thereby, the cleaning action for the textile products such as clothes by the wet cleaning method is exhibited. And although the present invention is mainly used as an iron for business use, it can also be used in general households.

2. Description of the Related Art A conventional iron has been constructed such that steam is ejected to moisturize an object to be ironed, and hot pressing is performed in this state. Further, the conventional iron remains only as a tool for exerting a pressing action.

[0003]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In addition to the function of an ordinary iron, the present invention is constructed so that spraying operation and vacuum operation by hot water or cold water are performed. A good stain removal action based on the wet cleaning method is achieved,
This is to provide a new iron.

[0004]

According to the present invention, a spraying operation of spraying water or hot water and a vacuum operation for sucking the sprayed water or hot water are carried out. The present invention provides a novel iron that has the effect of removing stains based on the wet cleaning method for cloth products and the effect of preventing the shape from being lost.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS In the drawings, reference numeral 1 is an iron body, 2 is an ironing board fixed to the lower surface of the body 1, and an electric heater is contained in the gas to heat it to a predetermined temperature. It is supposed to be done. Reference numeral 3 is an energizing cord.

Reference numeral 4 denotes an operating handle mounted on the upper surface side of the ironing machine body 1, 5 denotes an intake pipe guided into the operating handle 4, and the pipe 5 is provided in an intake chamber 7 described below. Have been guided. Then, the pipe 5 is appropriately connected to the vacuum machine.

Reference numeral 6 denotes a small number of air intake holes formed by forming a required number of holes in a portion of the ironing board 2 on the front side. In the intake chamber, the suction action is exerted on the lower surface of the ironing board 2 where the small holes 6 for intake are provided based on the suction force of the intake pipe 5.

Reference numeral 8 denotes a nozzle body for ejecting hot water or water in a mist state, and is attached to a portion near the tip of the operating handle 4 in such a manner that the ejection angle can be adjusted. Reference numeral 9 is a water pipe.

Reference numeral 10 is a spray control valve housed in the operation handle 4, and 11 is an operation lever thereof, which is projected to the outside of the handle 4. Reference numeral 12 is a water supply pipe, which is connected to the spray valve 10. The water supply pipe 11 is configured to be appropriately connected to a water supply pump, a water pipe or the like.

FIG. 5 is an explanatory system diagram showing a wet cleaning method (wet washing) using the iron according to the present invention. In the figure, A is an ironing board, which has a large number of small holes formed on its upper surface to form an air ejection surface. The iron B according to the present invention is configured such that the intake pipe 5 is connected to the drainage water storage tank C so that air containing dirt and water is taken into the drainage water storage tank and only water is removed and stored. ing. D
Is a vacuum machine attached to the drainage water storage tank C,
At the same time that the intake action for sucking the water-containing air from the iron B is performed, the exhausted air is supplied to the ironing board A as jet air.

As a specific usage pattern of the iron B according to the present invention, when stains occur due to adhesion of oil, food, etc. on clothes, the stain portions are sprayed. This is because the tip of the nozzle body 8 is located at the spot and the spray lever is opened by the operating lever 11 to start spraying. As a result, the dirt (stain) attached to the fibers is raised.

After the spraying as described above, if the tip of the iron is applied to the spraying portion, a required number of small holes for intake 6 are formed in the ironing board 2 at the front side. Based on the suction force, the dirt that has floated up due to the above-mentioned spray is sucked and discharged to the outside (for example, the drainage water storage tank C).

When the above-described suction operation is performed using the ironing board A as shown in FIG. 5, the dirt is caused by the air jet of the ironing board A, that is, the air blown from the lower surface side of the clothes. There is an effect that it is floated to the surface side and is watered by the suction force of the iron according to the present invention. Therefore, a strong stain removing effect can be obtained.

[0014]

According to the present invention, a required number of intake small holes 6 are formed near the tip of the ironing board 2, and an intake pipe 5 is provided to generate suction force in the intake small holes 6 portion.
Facing the small hole 6 for intake, and further ironing board 2
The nozzle body 8 for spraying the front part of
It is attached in such a manner that the injection angle can be adjusted, and a water supply pipe is attached to the nozzle body 8 via a spray control valve 10.
Since it is configured to connect the eleven, it is possible to carry out the washing by the wet cleaning method.

That is, all textile products such as textile clothes, wool and synthetic textile products, car seats, etc. are raised by spraying from the nozzle body 8 and stains resulting from the spraying. Embossed and small hole for intake 6
On the basis of the suction action by the above, the washing process by the wet cleaning method is performed on the fiber clothing and the like. Therefore, according to the present invention, it is possible to provide a new product called an iron having a wet cleaning function.
