Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a steam ironing device for general household use, which has a water tank separate from the iron body.

Configuration of Conventional Example and Its Problems 2 Conventionally, this type of ironing device had a configuration as shown in FIG. 1.

That is, 1 is a water tank provided separately from the iron body 2, 3 is a water supply pipe connecting the iron body 2 and the water tank 1, and 4 is a base attached to the bottom of the iron body 2, which is heated by the heater 5. It has a vaporizing chamber 6 and a steam hole 7 through which steam generated in the vaporizing chamber 6 is spouted. 8 is a hook for stopping the water supplied to the vaporization chamber 6, and 9 is a power cord. However, according to the above configuration, the amount of water supplied from the water tank 1 to the vaporization chamber 6 is constant, and the water tank 1 If there is less water left in the tank, the amount of water supplied will decrease. Therefore, it was not possible to eject steam in an amount appropriate for the fabric, which was very inconvenient.

OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a steam ironing device that can iron the fabric by adjusting the amount of steam emitted.

Structure of the Invention In order to achieve the above object, the steam iron device of the present invention includes an iron main body having a base, a water tank provided separately from the iron main body, a vaporizing chamber formed in the base, and a steam ironing device connected to the vaporizing chamber. A water supply device that supplies water from the water tank and a control device that adjusts the amount of water supplied by the water supply device, and adjusts the amount of steam ejected by adjusting the amount of water supplied to the vaporization chamber. It was made so that it could be done.

Description of examples Embodiments of the present invention will be described above based on the accompanying drawings.

In FIGS. 2 and 3, 11 is the iron main body 12
It is a water tank provided separately from the iron stand 13 and is provided at the upper end of the iron stand 13. Reference numeral 14 denotes a base attached to the bottom of the iron main body 129, and a vaporizing chamber 16 heated by a heater 15.
018, which has a steam hole 17 for spewing out the steam generated in the vaporization chamber 16, is a cord that connects the iron body 12 and the iron stand 13, and a conductor 19 that supplies electricity to the heater 15, and a water supply pipe 20 to the vaporization chamber 16. It is integrated and braided. 21 is a water supply device consisting of an electromagnetic pump or a pump using a motor, which supplies water from the water tank 11 to the vaporization chamber 16 through the entire water supply pipe 20; 22 is a water tank 1;
1 and the water supply device 21, and 23 is a control device that adjusts the amount of water supplied by the water supply device 21. For example, if the water supply device 21 is an electromagnetic pump, it changes the number of reciprocations of the cylinder and uses a motor. If the pump is a water pump, the water supply device 21 can be
This is to adjust the amount of water supplied. Reference numeral 24 denotes an operating knob of the control device 23, which is provided on the top surface of the iron stand 13. 25 is a thermostat that controls the temperature of the base 14, and 26 is a power cord.

In the above configuration, the water in the water tank 11 is supplied to the vaporization chamber 16 of the iron main body 12 through the water supply pipe 20 by the water supply device 21.
sent to. In the vaporization chamber 16 heated by the heater 15, water is vaporized and turned into steam, which is ejected from the steam hole 1a.

Here, the amount of water supplied by the water supply device 21 can be adjusted by operating the control device 22 using the operation knob 24, so that the amount of steam ejected that is suitable for the fabric can be arbitrarily obtained. If the water supply amount of the water supply device 21 is controlled to temporarily increase rapidly within the vaporization capacity of the vaporization chamber 16, the amount of steam ejected can be increased instantaneously, which is effective in smoothing out deep wrinkles. be. Furthermore, if a large amount of water is supplied that exceeds the vaporization capacity of the vaporization chamber 16, steam residue inside the vaporization chamber 16 etc. can be washed away with hot water, and the performance of the steam iron can be maintained for a long time. be able to.

Since the water tank 11 is provided separately from the iron main body 12, the water storage capacity can be increased, and steam ironing can be carried out for a long time. Further, since the iron main body 12 can be made small and lightweight, ironing can be done very easily.

In the above embodiment, the operating knob 24 is connected to the ironing stand 1.
3, but this operation knob 24 is provided on the iron body 12.
When ironing, you can adjust the amount of steam emitted at hand while ironing.

As described in detail, the steam iron device of the present invention is equipped with a water tank separate from the iron body and a control device that adjusts the amount of water supplied by the water supply device that supplies water to the vaporization chamber. , you can iron the steam for a long time with the amount of steam that matches the fabric.
