Abstract

The invention concerns an electric iron with an aerosol-generation device located in an atomization chamber (2) which is open towards the sole of the iron (3).

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention                             Electric iron   The present invention comprises an electrically heated iron bottom and an aerosol spray device. Regarding electric irons.   For best ironing results, iron with hot steam Or the item to be ironed, the sprue that was previously placed on the hand or iron It is known to moisten with water in a laye device.   A well-known steam iron uses a heating element provided in a normal iron to specially Evaporate the water in a steam chamber designed for it. Water in the steam chamber in the form of drops through a valve And after evaporation leaves the bottom from the passage provided for it. Water heating And evaporation requires a large amount of power that the original ironing process does not use. This incurs unnecessary costs.   Also wet items to be ironed with water / air aerosol used together with heat It is known that good ironing results can be achieved by rubbing . Furthermore, aerosol atomizers that work without pressure are known, in which piezo-ceramics are used. The ultrasonic generator is vibrated by using Mick. Ironing the bottom of the iron A cold water spray through a conventional vapor passage on a surface is such an aerosol sprayer. Is not possible When ironing iron, the pressure force of the iron on the ironing target and This is because the density of the fabric has an action against the outflow of aerosol.   The object of the present invention is, starting from the known prior art, to overcome the drawbacks of the known steam irons. Look for irons that do not have and whose known thermal evaporation has been replaced by a mechanical spray of water. It is to put out.   This problem is solved by the features of claim 1.   The spray chamber is surrounded by a frame and there is a mechanical spray device inside. Due to the iron bottom according to the invention, the iron according to the invention is advantageously Vibrate with a pressure-actuated aerosol spray device, such as an ultrasonic frequency generator. It may comprise a piezo-ceramic which is mounted. Such mechanical spray equipment The heating element in the bottom is a well-known steam iron because the power required for installation is small. Can be significantly reduced. Steam room and steam known as steam iron There is also no calcification of the passage, which extends the life of the iron according to the invention. It A horseshoe, elliptical or circular bottom surrounds the spray chamber in a frame The ironing surface of the iron bottom is significantly smaller than the known iron bottom can do. As a result, the material required for the iron bottom and the manufacturing cost are significantly reduced. Very few. Advantageously, when ironing, the item to be ironed first Things get wet through the spray device And then smoothed at the bottom of the heated iron, which allows moisture to enter the object. It can penetrate deeper and behave as in the case of known steam irons. It does not evaporate on the surface.   Embodiments of the invention are shown in FIGS. 1-5 and are described in detail below.   1 is a bottom view of the bottom according to the invention; FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of FIG. 1; 3 is a longitudinal section of FIG. 1: FIG. 4 is a view of another embodiment of the iron bottom according to the invention. FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view of FIG.   The iron bottom portion 1 of the iron (not shown) shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 is substantially a horseshoe. The iron bottom 1 surrounds the spray chamber 2 in the shape of a frame. There is. The spray chamber is open on the ironing surface side. Empty into the spray chamber 2 The air / cold water-spraying nozzle 4 of the spraying device 3 is open. Iron on the bottom of the iron 2 The hanging surface 5 is electrically heated by the heating element 6. Open the spray chamber 2 on the rear side There is. In another embodiment shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the spray chamber 2 is closed on the rear side. It has been configured.
