Definitions

  • the present invention refers to a method for ironing a textile item, such as for instance a garment, and an apparatus, comprising a steam flatiron connected to a steam generator for producing the steam needed for ironing, for carrying out such method.
  • a steam flatiron connected to a steam generator for producing the steam needed for ironing, for carrying out such method.
  • appliances for ironing clothes in which the settings of the ironing process parameters, such as the temperature of the flatiron plate and the steam release pressure, are selected and adjusted on the basis of personal judgement and the experience of the user depending on the properties of the textile material to be ironed.
  • the European patent application No. 459 559 Al describes a flatiron controlled by an electronic module, to which there are connected a static sensor for controlling the temperature of the plate, and a push-button for selecting the process temperature ranges of the flatiron, which are indicated by appropriate differently coloured LEDs. Some of these temperature ranges are provided for ironing under dry conditions, some others for steam ironing, i.e. ironing under the emission of steam.
  • the electronic module further controls a pump for the injection of water, taken from a reservoir contained within the flatiron, into a vaporization chamber for being converted into steam.
  • the European patent No. 645 488 BI refers to a method, and a related apparatus, according to which a textile item is submitted, during an ironing process, to the combined, concomitant action of thermal and mechanical treatments in conjunction with a steam treatment.
  • the method consists in selecting, prior to starting with the ironing and among a variety of pre-set programmes, a steam-cycle management programme in accordance with the particular nature of the textile item to be ironed, and automatically ensuring, during ironing and without any action to be taken by the user, the emission of steam at the frequency and rate corresponding to the selected programme.
  • a drawback that is common to the generality of prior-art ironing methods and related appliances lies in the fact that the extent of automation in the selection of the ironing process parameters is generally limited to the temperature of the flatiron plate, which, owing to its being directly in contact with the fabrics, must in any case be at temperature values that are compatible with and suitable to the textile material being handled, in order to both prevent the clothing item being ironed from being damaged, as this may occur in the case of excessively high temperatures, and obtain a good final ironing result, which would on the contrary not be achievable at too low ironing temperatures.
  • a final, although not less important purpose of the present invention is to provide a method and a related apparatus for carrying out such method at fully competitive costs. According to the present invention, these aims as set forth above, along with further ones that will become apparent from the following description, are reached in a method for ironing a textile item incorporating the characteristics as recited in the appended claim 1.
