  • the present invention relates to a method for operating an ironing board having air-displacing means comprising at least one air-displacing device such as a fan for generating airflow.
  • an ironing board is known, for example from US 6 655 055, and is also referred to as active ironing board.
  • an active ironing board is suitable to be applied in a steam ironing process that is aimed at treating items such as garments with steam for the purpose of removing wrinkles from these items.
  • the items are also heated during the steam ironing processes, for example by means of a hot soleplate of a steam iron that is applied during the steam ironing process.
  • An important function of the active ironing board is supporting items to be ironed.
  • the active ironing board comprises a supporting panel, which is preferably perforated, such as to be capable of letting through air and steam.
  • the supporting panel is made of flat metal, and a cover of flannel or the like is placed over this panel to offer more comfortable ironing.
  • the active ironing board comprises a ventilating unit for sucking in and blowing out air and steam through the cover.
  • the ventilating unit of the active ironing board should preferably function continuously during a steam ironing session, and, if needed, for a certain period of time after the ironing session is over, in order to ensure that the ironing board is completely dry.
  • a disadvantage of the active ironing board known from US 6 655 055 is that the operation of the ventilation unit is exclusively controlled by a user of the ironing board. In case the user decides not to operate the ventilating unit continuously during a steam ironing session, the moisture problems will occur anyway. In other words, it is dependent on the actions taken by the user whether the active ironing board will remain completely dry, or not. This is a disadvantageous situation, given the fact that the ventilating unit produces noise, and there is a considerable chance that the user will choose not to operate the ventilating unit continuously during a steam ironing process. Furthermore, a user may be aware of the fact that the operation of the ventilating unit involves power consumption, and may be inclined to switch off the ventilating unit now and then during a steam ironing session, in order to save energy and money.
  • the ironing board In case the user of the active ironing board chooses to operate the ventilating unit continuously during the steam ironing session, the ironing board remains dry, but another problem occurs, namely the problem of the user getting annoyed and irritated by the noise produced by the ventilating unit.
  • This objective is achieved by means of a method for operating an ironing board having air displacing means comprising at least one air displacing device such as a fan for generating an airflow, i.e.
  • an active ironing board wherein the air displacing means are continuously kept in an activated state during the operation of the ironing board, wherein, in case there is a need for an airflow capable of acting on an item to be ironed when such item is placed on the ironing board, the ironing board is put to a normal operating condition in which the air displacing means are operated for the purpose of generating an airflow at a normal flow rate, and wherein, in case there is no such need, the ironing board is put to a ventilating condition in which the air displacing means are operated for the purpose of generating an airflow at a flow rate which is reduced with respect to the normal flow rate.
  • the air displacing means of the ironing board which comprise at least one air-displacing device such as a fan, for example, are continuously kept in an activated state during the operation of the ironing board.
  • the air displacing means are not continuously operated such as to generate an airflow at a normal flow rate, in which the air displacing means are capable of sucking in air for drying an item to be ironed and for keeping it in place on the ironing board, or blowing air for inflating an item to be ironed and for avoiding incorrect creases, depending on the direction in which the at least one air displacing device of the air displacing means is operated.
  • the ironing board is put to a ventilating condition, in which the air displacing means are operated such as to generate an airflow at a flow rate which is reduced with respect to the normal flow rate.
  • the air displacing means are continuously operated during a steam ironing process.
  • steam and/or condensed steam are continuously removed from the ironing board.
  • the air displacing means are not switched off, but are operated for the purpose of generating airflow at a reduced flow rate. In this way, it is possible to realize a continuous removal of steam and/or condensed steam from the ironing board, while a user of the ironing board is not unnecessarily confronted with the noise associated with the normal operating condition of the ironing board.
  • the noise level associated with the ventilating condition of the ironing board may even be such that the user will hardly notice the operation of the air displacing means in this condition of the ironing board.
  • Another advantage of the application of the method according to the present invention is that the ironing board is operated in an energy- saving fashion, as operating the air displacing means for the purpose of generating an airflow at a reduced flow rate requires less power than operating the air displacing means for the purpose of generating an airflow at a normal flow rate.
  • the reduced flow rate is close to the lowest possible flow rate for effective removal of steam and/or condensed steam from the ironing board, so that the level of the noise produced by the air displacing means when the ironing board is in the ventilating condition may be relatively low.
  • the reduced flow rate is practically the lowest possible flow rate for effective removal of steam and/or condensed steam from the ironing board, so that the level of the noise produced by the air displacing means when the ironing board is in the ventilating condition is practically the lowest possible level.
  • the noise associated with the ventilating condition of the ironing board may even be virtually non- perceptible.
  • the ironing board is driven at a normal operating speed for the purpose of generating an airflow at the normal flow rate when the ironing board is put to the normal operating condition, and the air displacing device is driven at a ventilating speed for the purpose of generating an airflow at the reduced flow rate when the ironing board is put to the ventilating condition, the ventilating speed being lower than the normal operating speed.
  • the speed at which the air displacing device is driven is controlled on the basis of at least one characteristic of a voltage supplied to the air displacing device, for example on the basis of pulse-width modulation of such voltage.
  • This way of controlling the speed at which the air-displacing device is driven is accurate, and the implementation of this way of controlling the speed at which the air displacing device is relatively simple.

  • this one of the air displacing devices is continuously driven at a substantially constant speed.
  • an appropriate condition of the ironing board is obtained in a relatively simple manner, namely by using a main air displacing device, which is continuously driven at a substantially constant speed, and an auxiliary air displacing device, which is activated in the normal operating condition, and which is switched off in the ventilating condition.

Abstract

Une planche à repasser (1) comprend un ventilateur (20) destiné à créer un flux d'air et une unité de commande (40) pour contrôler un mode dans lequel le ventilateur (20) est entraîné pendant le fonctionnement de la planche à repasser (1). Lorsque l'on a besoin d'obtenir un flux d'air via un article à repasser, l'unité de commande (40) met le ventilateur (20) dans un régime dans lequel il est entraîné à une vitesse de fonctionnement ordinaire. Cependant, lorsque ce n'est pas nécessaire, l'unité de commande (40) met le ventilateur (20) dans un mode dans lequel il est entraîné à une vitesse inférieure à une vitesse de fonctionnement normale. De cette manière, le ventilateur (20) est entraîné en continu pendant l'utilisation de la planche à repasser (1), même si le repassage effectué à l'aide de la planche à repasser (1) ne nécessite pas l'utilisation du ventilateur (20). L'un des avantages de l'invention est d'éviter la condensation de la vapeur à l'intérieur de la planche à repasser (1).
