Definitions
- the present invention relates to a steam straightening apparatus having a base for producing a vapor stream connected to a steaming head by a conduit in which the steam produced by the base freely escapes to the head of the steamer. crease.
- the invention relates more particularly to a steaming machine in which the steaming head comprises a rear portion forming a gripping handle and a flared front portion having a surface provided with a plurality of steam outlet holes through which the flow of steam from the base is broadcast.
- a steam straightening apparatus comprising a base for the production of a steam flow connected by a conduit to a steaming head in which the steam produced by the base freely escapes to the peeling head.
- the scrubbing head has a rear portion forming a gripping handle and a flared front portion having a surface provided with a plurality of steam outlet holes through which the flow of vapor from the base is diffused.
- Such a steaming device has the advantage of being inexpensive to manufacture and quickly produce a saturation vapor stream that allows to quickly wrinkle hairs or clothes hanging vertically on a hanger.
- such a steaming device has a boiling chamber which provides steam at atmospheric pressure so that the velocity of the steam flow at the outlet of the steaming head is low, which is detrimental to good penetration steam in the thick tissues.
- the low speed of the steam at the outlet of the scrubbing brush does not provide a good directivity of the jet of steam to precisely treat areas of the garment to be straightened.
- an object of the present invention is to provide a degreasing apparatus which overcomes these drawbacks which is of great simplicity. construction.
- the subject of the invention is a steam-freeing apparatus comprising a base for the production of a vapor flow connected to a steaming head by a pipe in which the vapor produced by the base escapes freely.
- the scrubbing head having a rear portion, preferably cylindrical, forming a gripping handle and a flared front portion having a surface provided with a plurality of steam outlet holes through which the flow of steam from the base is diffused, characterized in that the flared front portion encloses a first steam distribution chamber which supplies a first group of steam outlet holes with steam and a second steam distribution chamber which supplies a second group of holes with steam.
- steam outlet and in that the steaming head comprises means for blocking or reducing the flow of steam towards the two xth group of steam outlet holes operable from outside the steamer head.
- the valve is actuable by a trigger disposed under the handle or by a circular wheel disposed around the handle. Such a characteristic makes it possible to obtain good ergonomics of use.
- Such a feature represents an alternative to obtain, by a simple and economical to implement, to concentrate the steam flow on the only steam outlet holes of the first group when the user presses a button.
- the surface receiving the steam outlet holes is flat and has a generally triangular shape outline.
- the steam outlet holes are distributed in a V on the surface of the steaming head, the outlet holes of vapor at the pointed end of the V being supplied with steam by the first distribution chamber, the other steam outlet holes being fed by the second distribution chamber.
- the gripping handle comprises a longitudinal end at which the duct engages in the wrinkling head and an opposite end at which the gripping handle is extended by the flared front part. .
- FIG. 6 is a perspective view of a wrinkle head according to a second embodiment of the invention.
- FIGS 8 and 9 are longitudinal sectional views of the wrinkling head of Figure 6 when the button is respectively in a relaxed position and a depressed position.
- the gripping handle 3 and the flared front portion 4 of the steaming head 1 are constituted by the assembly of two half-shells 1 1, 12 made of plastic, visible in FIG. 3, and the flat surface 5 is carried by a sole 13, also made of plastic, which is attached by clipping on the two half-shells 1 1, 12.
- the planar surface is provided with a first group of steam outlet holes 51, surrounded by dashed lines in FIG. 1, comprising three V-shaped holes near the front 50 point of the surface. 5 and a second group of steam outlet holes 52 comprising two times three holes disposed in the continuation of the holes arranged in V of the first group of steam outlet holes 51.
- the first and second distribution chambers 71, 72 are formed in a manifold 7, disposed in the uncreasing head 1, comprising a partition wall 70 extending between the first distribution chamber 71 and the second chamber. distribution 72, the manifold 7 being advantageously constituted by a piece of plastic material attached to the rear face of the sole 13 being sealingly connected thereto.
- the steaming head 1 comprises a button 8 making it possible to reduce, or even to block, the flow of vapor transmitted toward the second group of steam outlet holes 52, so that a greater part of the vapor stream produced by the base, or even all of this vapor stream, is sent through the first group of steam outlet holes 51.
- the button 8 is pivotally mounted on the body of the steaming head 1 and comprises a cross member 80 gripping the second tube 64 when manual pressure is exerted on the button 8, and that is illustrated in Figure 5, the button 8 comprising an opening 81 above the cross member 80 allowing the free passage of the first tube 63.
- the button 8 is preferably disposed near the front end of the handle 3, on the upper face of the latter, and is returned to a rest position, illustrated in Figure 4, by the elastic return made by the second tube 64 when the latter returns to its original shape when no pressure is exerted on the button 8.
- the steaming head 1 thus produced makes it possible to obtain a concentration of the vapor flow on the only steam outlet holes 51 belonging to the first group, that is to say those arranged prox. imitated from the front tip of surface 5 when the user presses button 8.
- Such a concentration of steam flow on a small number of holes has the advantage of allowing to obtain a powerful and accurate steam flow able to better target a particular area to unwind.
- the gripping handle 103 and the flared front portion 104 of the steaming head are constituted by the assembly of two half-shells 1 1 1, 1 12 of plastic material on which is clipped a sole 13 , also of plastic, supporting the surface 105, the sole 13 having a generally triangular shape contour with curved edges, comprising a nose 150 coming in the longitudinal extension of the handle 103.
- the surface 105 is provided with a first group of steam outlet holes 151 comprising three V-shaped holes near the front tip 150 of the surface 105 and a second group of holes.
- steam outlet 152 comprising two times three holes disposed in the continuation of the holes arranged in V of the first group of steam outlet holes 151.
- the flexible duct 102 extends longitudinally inside the gripping handle 103 to a distributor 106 distributing the stream of vapor coming from the flexible duct 102 into two streams of steam respectively supplying the first group of steam outlet holes 151 and the second group of steam outlet holes 152.
- the distributor 106 comprises, on one side, a connector provided with an inlet port 160 on which the flexible conduit 102 is connected and has, on the other side, a face provided with two outlet orifices 161, 162 on which is coupled a manifold 107 made of plastic material.
- the collector 107 comprises a first distribution chamber 171 extending facing the first group of steam outlet holes 151, which is supplied with steam by one of the two outlet orifices 161, 162, said first outlet orifice 161 , and has a second chamber of distribution 172 supplied with steam by the other of the two outlet orifices, said second outlet orifice 162, which extends opposite the second group of steam outlet holes 152.
- the distributor 106 comprises a main channel 163 which directly connects the first outlet orifice 161 with the inlet orifice 160 and comprises a bypass channel 164 which connects the second outlet orifice 162 with an opening 165 opening into the main channel 163.
- Such a construction therefore makes it possible, by a simple and economical solution to implement, to improve the performance of an apparatus for vertical steaming using a steam flow.
- the apparatus thus produced allows a fast and efficient treatment of clothing highly vapor permeable fabric when the button is not actuated, through the diffusion of steam by a large number of steam outlet holes covering a wide surface treatment.
- the user wishes to unwind a garment made in a low vapor permeable textile, requiring a greater speed of the steam flow, or when he wishes to precisely treat an area of the garment, it suffices to squeeze on the button to get more powerful steam jets on a small number of steam outlet holes.
- We thus obtain a device whose versatility and efficiency in the treatment of clothing is improved.
- the closing of the steam flow towards the second group of steam outlet holes can be achieved by means of a pivotally mounted flap.
- the surface receiving the steam outlet holes may be curved.
- control button of the valve may be constituted by a circular wheel rotating around the handle.
