Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of Industrial Application The present invention relates to an iron with a cord reel for general household use.

Conventional Structures and Problems Conventionally, it has been thought to provide cord reels in electrical equipment to compactly and easily store cords, and various ideas have been made for irons as well. however,
For small electric appliances such as irons, the cord reel itself becomes too large, which has the disadvantage of significantly impairing usability. In particular, a structure in which the cord is automatically reeled in is preferable in terms of usability, but the structure of the spring device and brush device is also complicated, making it possible to create a compact cord reel that does not impair the usability of the iron itself. This was a major hindrance.

Purpose of the Invention The present invention solves these conventional problems, miniaturizes the automatically winding cord reel, which has a complicated structure, so that it can be used in irons, and improves the ease of use of the iron itself as well as the ease of drawing when the cord is stored. The present invention provides an iron with a cord reel.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to achieve the above object, the present invention includes a base having a heater, a handle attached above the base, a cord electrically connected to the heater, and a drum around which the cord is wound. The drum is equipped with a cord case that surrounds the drum and stores one of the cords, and a spring device that applies rotational force to the drum in one direction, and the spring device is provided coaxially with the rotation axis of the drum. By effectively utilizing the space of the rotating shaft of the iron, we have realized a thinner cord reel iron that does not protrude significantly rearward from the main body of the iron.

DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the figure, 1 is a base having a hole, 2 is a cover, 3 is a handle, 4 is a cord reel attached to the rear of the handle 3, and a pair of cord cases 7 are provided with an outlet 6 for the cord 5. .8, a drum 9 provided in the cord case γ, 8 and around which the cord 5 is wound, and a spring device 10 such as a mainspring that can push the rotating car 4J in one direction around the drum 9;
It has a brush device 11 etc. that connects the cord 6 and the heater. The toniram is made so that the cord 5 can be wound in multiple rows, and is supported by a rotating shaft 12 protruding from the cord case 7.8. In addition, this rotating shaft 12
Near the rear side, surrounding this rotating shaft 12, on the handle 3 side -
A recessed recess 13 is provided in which the spring device 10 is arranged. This spring device 10 is interposed between the cord case 7 and the drum 9, and its inner end engages with the rotating shaft 12 and its outer end is fixed to the inner wall of the four parts 13 of the drum 9 and is provided coaxially with the rotating shaft 12. ing. The spring device 10 biases the drum 9 in the direction in which the cord 5 is wound, and
It is pre-wound so that additional spring force is applied after it is completely wound. Numeral 14 is a screw that fixes the third case 7.8 and unitizes the cord reel 4, and is fixed from the iron body side so that it cannot be disassembled without removing the cord reel 4 from the handle. 15
is engaged with the handle 3 by a locking portion provided on the cord case 8, and is fixed with a screw 16. 1γ is an opening formed by cutting out a part of the cord case 7.8 so as to follow the shape of the rear part of the iron, that is, the shape of the iron. 5 stands out.

According to the iron configured as described above, the spring device 10 is disposed coaxially with the rotating shaft 12 of the drum 9, and the rotational force is easily applied in the direction of winding the cord 5, and the iron can be made smaller. . In addition, by placing the rear side of the drum 9 on the handle 3 side four times as in the embodiment, it is possible to make the cord 5 thinner even though it is wound in multiple rows, and it can stand on its own when not in use, especially like an iron. This also has the effect of maintaining stability when installing equipment.

Effects of the Invention As described above, the iron with a cord reel of the present invention is miniaturized by providing a spring device coaxially with the rotating shaft of the drum for automatically retracting the cord during storage.
This has improved the workability of storing the cord without sacrificing the usability of the iron itself, and will greatly contribute to the commercialization of irons with cord reels.
