Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a hand-held appliance in which a water reservoir is mounted within a housing that is held in the hand and which has an outlet or nozzle to discharge fluid or steam onto a surface, such as a garment, a fabric article such as a curtain or fabric covered items of furniture.
  • the hand-held appliance of the invention may also be used to clean solid surfaces such as floors or counter tops by the application of steam and/or fluid to the surface.
  • a conventional hand-held garment steamer 1 is illustrated in Figure 1, and comprises a housing 2 containing a water tank or reservoir 3 and a heating chamber 4. Water is delivered from the reservoir 3 to the heating chamber 4 via a delivery system comprising a pump 5 and a tube 6 that has a portion 7 which extends into the reservoir 3 and which has an inlet 8 at its free end for the flow of water into the portion 7 of the tube 6 and along the tube 6 into the heating chamber 4. Water delivered to the heating chamber 4 is converted into steam for delivery to the surface being steamed through an outlet 9.
  • the housing 2 is orientated in its intended position of use so that steam is ejected through the outlet 9 in a substantially horizontal direction, as indicated by arrow A.
  • the portion 7 of the tube 6 extends into the reservoir 3 such that the inlet 8 is positioned at the lowest point in the reservoir 3 when the hand-held steamer is held in its intended orientation during use so that substantially all the water in the reservoir 3 will be drawn into the heating chamber 4, i.e. in the vertical orientation shown in Figure 1, in which steam exits the outlet 9 substantially horizontally.
  • the present invention seeks to provide a hand-held appliance that overcomes or substantially alleviates the problems with a conventional hand-held appliance, such as those identified above, and which maintains adequate delivery of fluid or steam to a surface irrespective of the orientation of the appliance.
  • the appliance of the invention may be used for a variety of different purposes and may, for example, be used for cleaning solid surfaces such as floors or windows as well as steam ironing of fabric articles or garments.
  • the appliance need not be capable of generating steam, in which case the fluid, such as water contained in the reservoir can be delivered directly onto a surface to be cleaned.
  • the appliance is provided with a heating chamber so that water contained in the reservoir is delivered to the heating chamber to be turned into steam prior to delivery to a surface.
  • the appliance may be provided with a switch that provides a user with the option to deliver liquid or steam to a surface. For example, it may be possible to use the appliance with the heating chamber switched off.
  • a handheld appliance comprising a housing including a reservoir to contain water and a tube to convey water from the reservoir for delivery to a surface, wherein the tube has a portion that extends into the reservoir and comprises multiple inlets spaced from each other within the reservoir so that, when the reservoir contains water, an inlet is submerged irrespective of the orientation of the housing, the tube portion also comprising a separate valve assembly associated with each tube inlet so that a valve assembly associated with a submerged tube inlet opens to allow flow of water through that inlet and a valve assembly associated with a non-submerged tube inlet closes to prevent the flow of air through said non-submerged tube inlet.
  • the tube portion contains multiple inlets, at least one tube inlet will always be in a submerged position irrespective of the orientation of the appliance.
  • the hand-held appliance will therefore continue to emit fluid or steam consistently in whatever position or orientation it is held in.
  • the tube inlets which are located above the water line are closed by the valve which is associated with the non-submerged tube inlet, no air will be drawn into the heating chamber through that, or those, tube inlet(s).
  • each valve assembly comprises a housing and a single valve member movable within the housing between a first position in which the inlet is open to allow water to flow past the valve into the inlet and a second position in which the inlet is closed to prevent the passage of air into the inlet.
  • the valve member may drop under its own weight into its first position and in a direction away from its associated inlet.
  • each valve assembly is removably mounted to an end of the tube over the inlet.
  • the aforementioned features provide a hand-held appliance in which an independent, but identical valve design is used for each tube inlet.
  • a separate valve assembly is removably attached to each end of the tube over an inlet, the assembly becomes more flexible and easier to manufacture and assemble. It also means that more than two inlets can be used without having to re-design the valve assembly, as a separate but identical valve assembly is simply provided for each inlet.
  • the length of the tube portion within the reservoir is also irrelevant, as the valve assembly can be attached to the end of a tube of any length. It is therefore applicable to hand-held appliances having reservoirs of various different sizes and shapes. As each valve assembly may be removable, they can be replaced easily due to wear or malfunction without replacing the other valve assembly or assemblies.
  • the tube portion comprises a primary tube portion extending into the reservoir and a secondary tube portion attached to a free end of the primary tube portion at a junction, a separate valve assembly being mounted to each end of the secondary tube portion remote from said junction.
  • the primary tube portion may extend into the reservoir so that its free end is positioned roughly at a central point within the reservoir.
  • the secondary tube portion can then extend to opposite ends of the reservoir so that at least one inlet will always be submerged in any water in the reservoir irrespective of the orientation of the appliance.
  • the secondary tube portion may comprise two inlets and may be integrally formed with a connector for attachment to said free end of the primary tube portion to effect fluid communication between the secondary tube portion and the primary tube portion.
  • the connector may comprise a connection piece integrally formed with the secondary tube portion for fluidly connecting the secondary tube portion to the free end of the primary tube portion.
  • the secondary tube portion may be a linear or straight section of tubing, and the connection piece can extend at right angles from the secondary tube portion at a point midway between each end of the secondary tube portion so that each tube inlet is positioned at approximately the same distance away from the free end of the primary tube portion.
  • the connection piece may simply be a short, hollow length of tube that is a push fit into the free end of the primary tube portion so as to effect fluid communication between the primary tube portion and the secondary tube portion.
  • the secondary tube portion may be formed of a plurality of independent sections.
  • each independent section may be attached to the free end of the primary tube portion via a connecting element to effect fluid
  • the secondary tube portion may comprise two independent sections and so the connecting element may, for example, be T-shaped so that each end of the 'T' forms a connector that is a push fit within the end of each tube to be connected. If the connecting element is
  • each independent section may extend away from each other in opposite directions and the primary tube portion may extend substantially at right-angles to each independent section.
  • a hand-held appliance comprising a housing including a reservoir to contain water and a tube to convey water from the reservoir for delivery to a surface, wherein the tube has a portion that extends into the reservoir and comprises two inlets spaced from each other within the reservoir so that, when the reservoir contains water, at least one of said inlets is submerged irrespective of the orientation of the housing, the tube portion comprising a valve assembly having an outlet, first and second openings and a single valve member within said valve assembly that allows water to flow through the valve assembly via the first opening, whilst also preventing the flow of air through the valve assembly through the second opening, the valve member being configured such that it drops under its own weight into an alternate position in response to a change in the orientation of the appliance to allow water to flow through said second opening whilst preventing the flow of air through said first opening.
  • the appliance according to this aspect of the invention has a simple valve construction, as only one valve member is required to control flow through each of the first and second openings.
  • the tube comprises a primary tube portion that extends into the reservoir so that a free end of said primary tube portion is in fluid communication with the outlet of the valve assembly, and a secondary tube portion extends from each of the first and second openings of the valve assembly, said tube portions being configured such that the valve member drops in a direction toward the opening from which a tube portion having the uppermost inlet extends, depending upon the orientation of the hand-held appliance, to prevent the flow of air through said opening from said secondary tube portion.
