Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention makes the iron body and the handle body detachable, making it more compact and easier to handle during storage, and stably supporting the handle body, which stands on the top of the iron body, during use. This provides an iron that is easy to use.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. Reference numeral 1 denotes an iron body, and above the iron body there is provided a handle body 2 that can be freely attached and detached. The iron main body 1
A base cover 4 is placed on the top surface of a base 3 having a heating element (not shown), and a heat shield plate 5 having thermal insulation properties is placed on the base cover using a polymerization device. An adjustment knob 7 for controlling the temperature of the heating element provided on the base 3 is mounted approximately in the center of the wall 6. Further, the upper wall 6 of the heat shield plate is provided with a fixed locking piece 8 and a movable locking piece 9 on the front and rear sides of the adjustment knob 7, respectively, for removably engaging and fixing the handle body 2. ing. The fixed locking piece 8 located at the front is formed into an inverted L shape oriented rearward, and the movable locking piece 9 located at the rear is always oriented forward and biased by a spring. It has a locking pawl 12 with a built-in spring piece 10 and a downwardly directed circular arc portion 11 at the top of the tip so that it can freely come out and go in and out of the sliding area, and a large number of non-slip lets 13, 13 on the top surface of the rear end. The operation section 14 is formed with... engraved thereon.

One of the handle main bodies 2 is made of a molded body of heat-resistant synthetic resin material, and has a substantially inverted D-shaped side surface, connecting both ends of a mounting base 15 on the lower side and a grip portion 16 on the upper side. That is, the handle main body 2 has an arcuate curved part 17 connecting its front side and the front side of the grip part 16 on the upper side, and conversely, the handle body 2 has a circular arc-shaped curved part 17 connecting the front side thereof and the front side of the grip part 16 on the upper side. Connecting bands 19, 19 having openings 18 are formed. and the grip part 1
6 and the mounting base 15, a concave groove 20 with an inward opening is formed on the opposing surface of the mounting base 15, and a notch 22 for releasing the temperature adjustment knob 7 is provided on the outer bottom surface 21 of the mounting base 15. A front engaging portion 23 and a rear engaging portion 24 are formed at the front and rear ends of the front and rear ends, respectively.

The length dimension of the grip part 16 is set to be approximately the same as the length between the fixed locking piece 8 and the movable locking piece 9, and the concave groove provided in the grip part 16 and the mounting base 15, respectively. The width P of the iron body 1 is approximately equal to the thickness T from the surface of the base 3 on both sides of the iron body 1 to the step 25 formed on the heat shield plate 5, and is also formed on the grip 16 and the mounting base 15. The width D between the bottoms 26 and 26 of the concave groove 20 and the width W of the iron main body 1 have approximately the same dimensional relationship.

When storing the iron in such a configuration or carrying it on a trip, etc., in order to make the iron as a whole smaller, the steps 25, 25 formed on both sides of the iron body 1 between the concave grooves 20, 20 of the handle body 2 are used. Iron main body 1 having a width dimension W when stored and fitted together
is held across the concave grooves 20, 20 having a width dimension D, forming a small flat iron.

When using one side, the outer bottom surface 2 of the handle body 2 is formed so that the handle body 2 is erected on the iron body 1.
1 on the top wall 6 of the iron body 1,
Move the handle body 2 to the front side and insert the front engaging part 2 at the tip.
a fixed locking piece 8 formed protrudingly on the top wall 6;
After sliding and engaging, when the rear end rear engaging portion 24 is lowered, the rear engaging portion 24 comes into contact with the circular arc portion 11 formed on the upper surface of the movable locking piece 9. When this is further pressed down, the movable locking piece 9 is forcibly slid backward against the spring bias, and when it passes through the circular arc portion 11, it returns to the front side.
The locking pawl 12 engages and locks with a rear engaging portion 24 provided on the handle body 2.

When disengaging the handle main body 2, the operating portion 14 provided on the movable locking piece 9 is forcibly slid backward, so that the locking pawl 12 engages with the rear engaging portion of the handle main body 2. 24, and can be detached from the iron main body 1 by lifting the handle main body 2 upward in this state.

As mentioned above, the iron according to the present invention is compact when stored, and when in use, the handle body can be easily attached, and the iron can be easily assembled and separated, making it easy to handle.
When the handle body is assembled to the iron body, the handle body is locked to the front part of the handle body where the most force is applied during ironing by the fixed locking piece and the front engagement part,
Since the rear part, where relatively less force is applied compared to the front part, is locked by the movable locking piece and the rear engaging part, the handle body does not come off when ironing, and the movable locking piece is provided at the rear of the iron body. No damage to appearance. Furthermore, since the handle body connects both ends of the grip part and the mounting base, and the length dimension of this grip part is approximately the same as the dimension between the fixed locking piece and the movable locking piece, the handle body becomes frame-shaped and has strength. In addition, the force applied to the grip portion is applied to each locking side in a stable state, and can be used as a so-called press pressure for ironing. Further, since the fixed locking piece and the movable locking piece are provided facing each other, the handle body attached to the iron body is securely held and the handle body is prevented from being unexpectedly detached from the iron body.
