Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Finish-Behandlung, insbesondere einen Hemdenfinisher, der im Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1 beschriebenen Art.The invention relates to a device for finishing treatment, in particular a shirt finisher, the type described in the preamble of claim 1.

Ein derartiger Finisher ist aus der US-A-5 474 216 bekannt. Der bekannte Finisher weist ein Gebläse auf, dessen Saugöffnung fest mit einer die Saug-Ausnehmung aufweisenden Leitung verbunden ist, die in die Saug/Blas-Öffnung führt, und dessen Blasöffnung ebenfalls fest über eine die Blas-Ausnehmung enthaltende Blasleitung mit der Saug/Blas-Öffnung verbunden ist. Sowohl die Saugleitung als auch die Blasleitung stehen über zwei Rohrstutzen mit der Atmosphäre in Verbindung, wobei diese Verbindung jeweils durch ein 3-Wegeventil geöffnet oder geschlossen werden kann. Soll in der Büste des Finishers ein Vakuum erzeugt werden, so wird der die Saugleitung mit der Atmosphäre verbindende Rohrstutzen geschlossen und durch das 3-Wegeventil eine Verbindung zwischen der Saugleitung und der Saug-öffnung des Gebläses geschaffen. Das Ventil in der Blasleitung wird so gestellt, daß es die Blasöffnung des Gebläses mit dem Rohrstutzen verbindet und die Blasleitung absperrt. Soll geblasen werden, wird die Saugleitung abgesperrt und die Saugöffnung mit ihrem Rohrstutzen verbunden, während der Blas-Rohrstutzen abgesperrt wird und eine Verbindung zwischen der Blasöffnung und der Blasleitung geschaffen wird. Die Ventilsteuerung ist jedoch relativ aufwendig und erlaubt nur einen abrupten Wechsel zwischen voller Blas- und voller Saugleistung, ohne sanften Übergang.Such a finisher is known from US-A-5 474 216. The well-known finisher points a blower, the suction opening of which is fixed with a suction recess Line is connected, which leads into the suction / blowing opening, and its blowing opening also firmly via a blow line containing the blow recess with the Suction / blow opening is connected. Both the suction line and the blow line are standing via two pipe connections with the atmosphere, this connection can be opened or closed by a 3-way valve. Should be in the bust a vacuum is generated by the finisher, so that the suction line with the atmosphere connecting pipe socket closed and a connection through the 3-way valve created between the suction line and the suction opening of the blower. The The valve in the blow line is set so that it connects the blower opening of the blower with the Pipe socket connects and shuts off the blow line. If you want to blow, the suction line cordoned off and the suction port connected to its pipe socket during the Blast pipe socket is blocked and a connection between the blow opening and the blowing line is created. However, the valve control is relatively complex and only allows an abrupt change between full blowing and full suction power, without smooth transition.

Bei Bügeltischen ist es aus dem DE-GM 1 974 029 bekannt, zwischen dem Gebläse und einer Saug/Blas-Öffnung eine verschwenkbare Rohrklappe anzuordnen. Die Rohrklappe ist unterhalb der Saug/Blas-Öffnung um eine waagerechte Achse derart schwenkbar, daß sie mit ihrer ersten Stirnseite wahlweise entweder über die Blasöffnung oder die Saugöffnung oder in eine senkrechte Neutralstellung verschwenkt werden kann, während ihre zweite Stirnseite sich immer unterhalb der Saug/Blas-Öffnung befindet. Bedingt durch die Verschwenkbewegung der Rohrklappe muß jedoch in der Luftkammer genügend Freiraum vorhanden sein, der abgedichtet werden muß. Zum Abdichten werden Federmetallstreifen verwendet, die gleichzeitig als Anschlag wirken. Das Umschalten zwischen dem Saugen und dem Blasen ist somit immer mit klappernden Geräuschen verbunden, die zwar für sich gesehen nicht sehr laut sind, bei ständiger Wiederholung über den Arbeitstag jedoch extrem stören können.In ironing boards, it is known from DE-GM 1 974 029, between the blower and to arrange a swiveling pipe flap in a suction / blowing opening. The pipe flap can be swiveled around a horizontal axis below the suction / blowing opening, that with its first end face either through the blow opening or the Suction opening or in a vertical neutral position can be pivoted while its second face is always below the suction / blowing opening. conditioned due to the pivoting movement of the pipe flap, however, there must be enough in the air chamber There must be free space that must be sealed. For sealing Spring metal strips are used, which also act as a stop. Switching there is always a clattering noise between sucking and blowing connected, which are not very loud in themselves, with constant repetition extremely disturbing about the working day.

Ebenfalls bei Bügeltischen ist es aus der DE 31 46 539 A1 bekannt, das gesamte Geblase unterhalb der Saug/Blas-Öffnung so zu verschieben, daß wahlweise entweder die Saugöffnung des Gebläses oder die Blasöffnung des Gebläses unter die Saug/Blas-Öffnung verschoben werden kann. Das Verschieben eines ganzen Gebläses ist jedoch bei Finishern, die mit Gebläsen wesentlich höherer Leistung ausgerüstet werden müssen, konstruktiv viel zu aufwendig.Also with ironing tables, it is known from DE 31 46 539 A1, the entire blower below the suction / blow opening so that either the Suction opening of the blower or the blower opening of the blower under the suction / blowing opening can be moved. However, moving an entire blower is for finishers who have to be equipped with blowers with significantly higher performance, constructively far too complex.

Aus dem Stand der Technik sind weitere Hemdenfinisher bekannt, die im Saug/Blas-Betrieb arbeiten. Die Hemden werden auf eine Büste aufgezogen und anschließend mit einem Behandlungsmedium, wie Dampf oder Heißluft, behandelt, das in die Büste eingeleitet wird und das Kleidungsstück von innen nach außen durchdringt. Um den gewünschten Glättungseffekt zu erzielen, muß das Behandlungsmedium mit einem vorbestimmten Druck das Kleidungsstück aufblähen, wodurch es gespannt und geglättet wird. Mittels verschiedener Fixiervorrichtungen wird weitgehend verhindert, daß das eingeblasene Behandlungsmedium aus den Ärmelöffnungen bzw. der Kragenöffnung entweicht. Insbesondere ist es erforderlich, die offene Knopfleiste des Hemdes oder der Bluse so auf der Büste zu fixieren, daß an dieser Stelle kein Behandlungsmedium entweichen kann. Aus dem Stand der Technik ist bekannt, dazu eine Knopfandruckleiste einzusetzen, die durch einen geeigneten Mechanismus auf die Knopfleiste des Hemdes gedrückt wird. Dieser Arbeitsschritt bereitet insofern Probleme, da die Knopfleiste zuerst von Hand ausgerichtet werden muß. Um einen Unfall zu vermeiden, darf die Bedienperson die Knopfleiste nicht mehr festhalten, wenn die Knopfandruckleiste an die Knopfleiste herangeführt wird.Further shirt finishers are known from the prior art, which operate in the suction / blowing mode work. The shirts are put on a bust and then with a treatment medium, such as steam or hot air, which is introduced into the bust and penetrates the garment from the inside out. To the one you want To achieve a smoothing effect, the treatment medium must have a predetermined Pressure inflates the garment, which tightens and smoothes it. By means of various fixing devices, the blow-in is largely prevented Treatment medium escapes from the sleeve openings or the collar opening. In particular, it is necessary to open the button placket of the shirt or blouse like this to fix on the bust that no treatment medium can escape at this point can. It is known from the prior art to use a button pressure bar for this purpose, which is pressed onto the button placket of the shirt by a suitable mechanism becomes. This step is problematic in that the button bar is first hand must be aligned. To avoid an accident, the operator may Do not hold the button placket anymore when the button pressure bar leads to the button bar becomes.

Aus dem Stand der Technik ist bekannt, das Hemd und speziell die von Hand ausgerichtete Knopfleiste mittels Unterdruck auf der Büste zu fixieren. Daher wird, nachdem die Knopfleiste von Hand ausgerichtet ist, ein Sauggebläse eingeschaltet. Die Knopfleiste kann gefahrlos von Hand gehalten werden, bis sie durch den äußeren Luftdruck definiert auf der Büste fixiert ist. Während das Sauggebläse läuft, kann die Lage der Knopfleiste noch von Hand korrigiert werden. Danach wird die Knopfandruckleiste in ihre Arbeitsposition bewegt und das Sauggebläse abgeschaltet. Das Hemd wird nunmehr an weiteren Stellen abgedichtet und fixiert. Danach wird mittels eines zweiten Gebläses das Behandlungsmedium in das Hemd eingeblasen.It is known from the prior art that the shirt and especially the hand-aligned one To fix button placket on the bust by means of negative pressure. Therefore, after the Button bar is aligned by hand, a suction fan is switched on. The button placket can be held safely by hand until it is defined by the external air pressure is fixed on the bust. The position of the button bar can be changed while the suction fan is running can still be corrected by hand. Then the button pressure bar is in its working position moved and the suction fan switched off. The shirt will now be on others Sealed and fixed points. The treatment medium is then removed using a second blower blown into the shirt.

Um ein gutes Finishergebnis zu erzielen, werden bei Finishern gern Radialgebläse eingesetzt, die eine hohe Blas- bzw. Saugleistung ermöglichen. Diese Gebläse können nicht durch Umkehr der Drehrichtung von Saugen auf Blasen umgestellt werden, so daß für eine Saug/Blas-Funktion bisher zwei Gebläse eingesetzt werden mußten.To achieve a good finish, radial fans like to use which enable a high blowing or suction power. These blowers can cannot be switched from suction to bubbles by reversing the direction of rotation, so that previously two blowers had to be used for a suction / blowing function.

Bei Bügeltischen ist es weiterhin bekannt, Klappenmechanismen zur Ausbildung veränderbarer Luftkanäle vorzusehen, wobei durch Änderung der Klappenstellung eine Umschaltung auf Saugen oder Blasen erfolgt. Eine derartige Konstruktion ist aus der DE 27 44 507 bekannt. Bei diesem Bügeltisch mit Saug/Blas-Funktion ist die Öffnung im Boden der Tischplatte über einen Rohrstutzen mit einer Zwischenkammer verbunden, an welcher ferner das Gebläse und in welche sowohl die Saugöffnung als auch die Blasöffnung des Gebläses mündet. Mittels Klappen und Gestänge ist es möglich, entweder die Saugöffnung oder die Blasöffnung mit dem Rohrstutzen in Verbindung zu setzen, um an der oberen Bügelfläche der hohlen Tischplatte abzusaugen oder zu blasen.In ironing boards, it is also known that flap mechanisms can be modified for training purposes Provide air channels, a changeover by changing the flap position on sucking or blowing. Such a construction is from DE 27 44 507 known. This ironing board with suction / blowing function has an opening in the bottom the table top is connected via a pipe socket to an intermediate chamber, at which furthermore the fan and into which both the suction opening and the blowing opening of the fan opens. By means of flaps and rods it is possible to either the suction opening or to connect the blow opening to the pipe socket in order to connect to the Vacuum or blow the upper ironing surface of the hollow tabletop.

Es sind die unterschiedlichsten Ausbildungen solcher Klappenmechanismen zum Umschalten vom Saug- in den Blasbetrieb bekannt. Neben dem aufwendigen Aufbau entstehen bei den bisher bekanntgewordenen Konstruktionen relativ hohe Leistungsverluste und starke Geräusche beim Umschalten der Klappen. Um diese Mängel zu beheben, wurde in der DE 31 46 539 vorgeschlagen, die Saug/Blas-Umschaltung durch Verschieben des Gebläses zu realisieren. Die gefundene Lösung ist jedoch speziell für einen Bügeltisch geeignet. Das räumliche Verschieben des relativ großen Gebläses eines Hemdenfinishers ist aus konstruktiven Gründen nicht erwünscht.There are various designs of such flap mechanisms for switching known from suction to blow mode. In addition to the complex structure relatively high power losses in the constructions which have become known so far and strong noise when switching the flaps. To fix these shortcomings, was proposed in DE 31 46 539, the suction / blow switching by moving of the blower. However, the solution found is especially for an ironing board suitable. The spatial displacement of the relatively large blower of a shirt finisher is not desired for constructional reasons.

Der Erfindung liegt somit die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Vorrichtung zur Finish-Behandlung von Kleidungsstücken zu schaffen, mit der auf konstruktiv einfache Weise, mit einem sanften Übergang und geräuscharm zwischen Saugen und Blasen umgeschaltet werden kann. The invention is therefore based on the object of a device for finish treatment to create garments with the in a constructively simple manner, with a smooth transition and silent switching between sucking and blowing can.

Die Aufgabe wird mittels einer Vorrichtung gemäß Patentanspruch 1 gelöst.The object is achieved by means of a device according to claim 1.

Durch die erfindungsgemäße Ausgestaltung wird auf konstruktiv einfache Weise und mit geringem Bauvolumen eine sehr geräuscharme Umschaltung zwischen Saugen und Blasen möglich. Weiterhin erfolgt das Umschalten nicht mehr abrupt, sondern fließend, so daß auch dadurch eine abrupte Geräuschentwicklung vermieden wird.The inventive design is in a structurally simple manner and with low volume, a very quiet switching between suction and Bubbles possible. Furthermore, the switching no longer occurs abruptly, but smoothly, so that an abrupt noise is avoided.

Die Vorrichtung zeichnet sich durch einen sehr einfachen Aufbau aus und weist auch ein geringes Bauvolumen auf. Bei der Umschaltung vom Saugen auf Blasen entstehen keine lauten Klappengeräusche, wie sie bisher aus dem Stand der Technik bekannt waren. Die Vorrichtung ist sehr robust und wartungsfrei. Verglichen mit einem herkömmlichen Hemdenfinisher mit zwei Gebläsen sind folgende Vorteile besonders erwähnenswert: Der Saugbetrieb dient lediglich zur Fixierung der Knopfleiste. Es ist erwünscht, daß die Saugwirkung möglichst schnell verfügbar ist. Dazu muß jedoch ein Sauggebläse mit hoher Saugleistung eingesetzt werden. Die Erfindung erspart somit ein Sauggebläse mit hoher Saug-leistung, wodurch die Gesamtkosten des Hemdenfinishers gesenkt werden können. Ferner wird auch Bauraum eingespart.The device is characterized by a very simple structure and also has low construction volume. When switching from suction to bubbles, there are none loud flap noises as they were previously known from the prior art. The device is very robust and maintenance-free. Compared to a conventional one Shirt blowers with two blowers include the following advantages: The suction mode only serves to fix the button bar. It is desirable that the Suction is available as quickly as possible. However, this requires a suction fan with high Suction power can be used. The invention thus saves a suction fan high suction power, which reduces the overall cost of the shirt finisher can. Construction space is also saved.

Mit dem zusätzlichen Merkmal gemäß den Anspruch 3 wird ein linearer Übergang vom Saug- zum Blasbetrieb ermöglicht und Geräusche weiter reduziert.With the additional feature according to claim 3, a linear transition from Suction for blowing operation enabled and noise further reduced.
