Definitions

  • the present invention relates to clothes drying, dewrinkling and ironing systems, and more specifically to clothes drying, dewrinkling and ironing cabinets intended mainly for domestic use, as well as to devices relating to conventional ironing.
  • the Spanish patent document from the same applicant with the Application No. P200000597 discloses a cabinet for clothes drying and dewrinkling, as well as a method for carrying out said drying and dewrinkling. Said invention facilitates the task of ironing to a considerable extent, as the level of dewrinkling that is achieved is such that subsequent use of the iron is only necessary for a small number of garments and for only very localised parts thereof.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 5,329,860 discloses an ironing board unit that can be mounted on a door.
  • the invention includes an upright member with a hook that is hung from the frame of the chosen door, a transverse member fixed to said upright member, an ironing board hingedly attached to said transverse member, and a leg hingedly attached to said ironing board.
  • the main object of the invention is to provide an household electrical appliance that offers a complete, global and integrated solution to the domestic chore that commences when clean clothes are taken out of the washing machine and concludes when they are duly ironed and stowed away.
  • Said household electrical appliance is a clothes drying, dewrinkling and ironing cabinet that comprises a main enclosure for housing clothes, with access to said main enclosure by way of a front door, means for drying and dewrinkling said clothes in the afore-mentioned enclosure, and further including an ironing board unit.
  • This ironing board unit is a folding one and is mounted on the inside face of the cabinet door.
  • the invention makes it possible for the ironing board not to have to be kept somewhere else in the house (it is inside the drying and dewrinkling cabinet), it also affords a saving in time and effort as well as saving space.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide the cabinet covered by the invention with a fold-down ironing board that improves upon some of the main features of the prior art ironing boards.
  • Said fold-down ironing board unit comprises a board, a fixed leg hingedly attached to the under side of said board and anchoring means attached to the inside of the cabinet door. When folded down, the board rests on the leg and on the cabinet door anchoring means, so that a position of high stability is achieved.
  • Said anchoring means include two elongated vertical supports and two bearing stops attached to said supports. At one end the board has a shaft and the supports have longitudinal guide slots wherein the ends of said shaft are housed.
  • the stops fixed to the vertical supports act as bearing points for the board when the ironing board unit is folded down, while the same stops also prevent the board from swinging down when it is stowed away. This saves having to use additional board anchoring means.
  • the ironing board unit is adjustable for height with the special feature of it not being necessary for the user to adjust it every time it is used. Once these stops are fixed at the desired height, the user then has the height of the board set for subsequent occasions.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an embodiment of the cabinet of the invention with the ironing board folded down.
  • FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the embodiment of FIG. 1 with the ironing board folded away.
  • FIG. 3 is a front view of the inside of the cabinet door of the embodiment of FIG. 1, with the ironing board folded away.
  • FIG. 4 is a cross section according to the IV-IV section line of FIG. 3.
  • FIG. 5 is a cross section according to the V-V section line of FIG. 3.
  • cabinet 1 of the invention comprises:
  • a front door 3 offering access to said main enclosure 2 .
  • control means 5 for regulating said control means 4 .
  • Cabinet 1 will also include the necessary equipment (not shown in the figures) for carrying out conventional ironing, such as the actual iron itself.
  • the ironing board unit 6 which is shown in its working position in FIG. 1, comprises a board 7 and a fixed leg 8 , which is hingedly attached to the under side of said board 7 .
  • a board 7 As may be seen in the afore-mentioned FIG. 1, once the door 3 is open and the ironing board unit 6 is folded down, said board 7 rests on the leg 8 and on the anchoring means attached to the inside of said door 3 .
  • the anchoring means include two elongated vertical supports 9 and 9 ′ attached to the inside of the door 3 and two stops 10 and 10 ′ attached to said support 9 and 9 ′.
  • the stops 10 and 10 ′ act as bearing points for the board 7 when the ironing board unit 6 is folded down.
  • said stops 10 and 10 ′ act as anchoring means for the board 7 from swinging down when the ironing board unit 6 is folded away.
  • the board 7 has a shaft at one end and the supports 9 and 9 ′ have longitudinal guide slots 11 and 11 ′ facing each other.
  • the shaft 14 of the board 7 is housed in said guide slots 11 and 11 ′.
  • the leg 8 which is hingedly attached to the board 7 and moves according to the axis 8 a , is secured to the board 7 when the ironing board unit 6 is folded away by means of a gripping device 7 a with which said board 7 is provided.
  • Stops 10 and 10 ′ each have:
  • fastening means (not shown in FIG. 3) to fix said stops 10 and 10 ′ at the desired height setting.
  • the length of the leg 8 is adjustable so that it can be made to match the height at which the stops 10 and 10 ′ are placed.
  • supports 9 and 9 ′ have a series of longitudinally aligned holes.
  • the stop 10 fixing means (just as the stop 10 ′ fixing means) include a pin 15 housed in the body 12 which is inserted at the user's discretion in the hole at the height at which it is desired to fit stop 10 .
  • a spring 16 with a washer 17 is added to the pin 15 so that said pin 15 slips automatically into the hole which it is facing if the user releases it.
  • the pin 15 has a head 18 which makes it easier for the user to take hold of said pin 15 .
  • the shaft 14 is an integral part of the board 7 .
