た。2. Description of the Related Art A conventional steam iron of this type has a base 2 having a heater 1, a vaporization chamber 3 formed in the base 2, and a tank 4 arranged above the base 2, as shown in FIG. , An electric pump 5 for supplying water in the tank 4 to the vaporization chamber 3, a pipe 6 for sucking water from the tank 4 to the electric pump 5, and water for supplying water from the electric pump 5 to the vaporization chamber 3. The control circuit includes a water supply pipe 7, a control circuit 8 for controlling the temperature of the iron and an electric pump, a steam button 7'for setting steam, and a self-sustaining detection means 9 for detecting the self-sustaining state of the iron. When the self-sustaining detecting means 9 detects the self-sustaining state of the iron 8, the electric pump 8 stops the electric pump 5 to stop the supply of water to the vaporizing chamber 3 to stop the generation of steam.

きる。The operation of the above configuration will be described. To use steam, first level the iron. Next, when the steam button 20 is pressed and a steam setting command is issued to the water supply control means 19, the water supply control means 19 operates the electric pump 16 to move the tank.
The water in 15 is supplied to the vaporization chamber 14 through the water supply port 17 and the water supply passage 18. The water becomes steam due to the heat of the base 12, and steam ironing can be performed. At the same time, water supply control means
Reference numeral 19 always confirms the output of the state detecting means 21 to confirm the state of the iron. If the iron remains in the horizontal state, it is determined to be in use, and the electric pump 16 is operated to perform water supply control. When the worker puts the iron in an independent state in order to correct the state of the clothes being ironed, the state detection means 21 outputs the self-standing state to the water supply control means 19. The water supply control means 20 cancels the water supply setting based on the output. Since the water supply setting is canceled, the water supply control means 19 does not operate the electric pump 16 and the steam does not squirt even when the iron falls from the self-supporting state to the horizontal state. In order to perform steam ironing after fixing the clothes, level the iron and press the steam button 20 to supply water.
Is the water supply setting, the electric pump 16 operates, and water is sent from the tank 15 to the vaporization chamber 14 through the water supply port 17 and the water supply passage 18.
Steam is generated again and steam ironing can be continued.

アイロンが実現できる。EFFECTS OF THE INVENTION As is apparent from the above embodiments, according to the present invention, the state detection means detects the non-use state of the iron and cancels the water supply setting of the water supply control means, so that the electric power is generated when the non-use state falls. The device operates and there is no danger of hot steam spouting, and a safer and more convenient steam iron can be realized.
