Une telle base 1 pour la génération de vapeur est bien connue de l'homme du métier et est par exemple techniquement semblable à la base pour la génération de vapeur décrite en détails dans la demande de brevet
De manière préférentielle, la base 1 comporte un mât 11 comprenant trois tronçons télescopiques s'étendant sensiblement verticalement lorsque la base 1 repose à plat sur le sol, le mât 11 comprenant une extrémité supérieure supportant un cintre 4 sur lequel du linge à défroisser peut être disposé. Le cintre 4 est avantageusement réalisé en matériau plastique et comporte une échancrure 40 à son sommet, mieux visible sur la
Conformément aux
Plus particulièrement selon l'invention, l'appareil comprend un dispositif de blocage qui permet d'immobiliser le cintre 4 en position, le dispositif de blocage comportant un levier de commande 7 qui peut occuper une position débloquée dans laquelle le cintre 4 peut tourner librement sur le mât 11 et une position bloquée dans laquelle le cintre 4 est immobilisé en position.More particularly according to the invention, the apparatus comprises a locking device which makes it possible to immobilize the
Dans le premier mode de réalisation illustré sur les
L'élément de freinage est avantageusement constitué par une entretoise élastique 8, en matériau élastomère, d'une épaisseur de l'ordre de 1 cm qui est traversée par la tige 81, l'entretoise élastique 8 possédant une forme annulaire qui, lorsqu'elle n'est pas comprimée, présente un diamètre externe de l'ordre de 2 cm, correspondant au diamètre de l'arbre 5.The braking element is advantageously constituted by an
De manière préférentielle, la tige 81 présente une section transversale en forme de croix qui coulisse dans une ouverture 50 de forme complémentaire ménagée au centre de l'arbre 5 afin d'empêcher la rotation de la tige 81 sur elle-même.Preferably, the
Comme on peut le voir sur les
Le levier de commande 7 comporte une partie supérieure 70 formant une zone de préhension et une partie inférieure formant une came 71 qui vient au contact d'une paroi 42 ménagée dans le fond de la cavité 41, la came 71 présentant une forme adaptée pour provoquer le déplacement en translation de la tige 81 dans le sens du rapprochement du disque 80 vers l'extrémité inférieure de l'arbre 5 lorsque le levier de commande 7 bascule de la position débloquée, illustrée sur la
De manière préférentielle, la partie de la paroi 42 sur laquelle la came 71 vient prendre appui comporte une rondelle 43 métallique qui vient renforcer localement la zone d'appui pour éviter une usure trop rapide de la paroi 42 au contact de la came 71 lors de la manipulation du levier de commande 7.Preferably, the part of the
Le fonctionnement du dispositif de blocage va maintenant être décrit en relation avec les
Lorsque l'utilisateur souhaite pouvoir tourner librement le cintre 4 autour du mât 11, il place le levier de commande 7 dans la position débloquée illustrée sur la
Dans cette position du levier de commande 7, l'arbre 5 peut tourner librement dans le palier 6 et le cintre 4 peut être orienté manuellement par l'utilisateur dans la position qu'il désire.In this position of the
Lorsque l'utilisateur souhaite immobiliser le cintre 4 dans une position donnée, il lui suffit de saisir le levier de commande 7 et de le faire basculer de 90° vers la position bloquée illustrée sur la
Bien entendu, si l'utilisateur souhaite pouvoir faire tourner le cintre 4 sur le mât 11 il lui suffit d'amener de nouveau le levier de commande 7 dans la position débloquée pour libérer la pression exercée par l'entretoise élastique 8 sur le palier 6.Of course, if the user wishes to be able to rotate the
Un tel dispositif de blocage présente donc l'avantage d'être simple et économique à réaliser et permet l'immobilisation du cintre dans n'importe quelle position angulaire. De plus, un tel dispositif de blocage présente l'avantage de ne pas se casser lorsque l'utilisateur force sur le cintre pour le faire tourner sans avoir au préalable positionné le levier de commande dans la position débloquée. En effet, lorsqu'un tel cas se produit, l'entretoise élastique se met à glisser à l'intérieur du palier lorsque le couple exercé devient supérieur aux efforts de frottement, évitant toute casse du dispositif de blocage.Such a locking device therefore has the advantage of being simple and economical to produce and allows the hanger to be immobilized in any angular position. In addition, such a locking device has the advantage of not breaking when the user forces the hanger to rotate it without having first positioned the control lever in the unlocked position. In fact, when such a case occurs, the elastic spacer begins to slide inside the bearing when the torque exerted becomes greater than the frictional forces, preventing any breakage of the locking device.
Les
Dans ce second mode de réalisation, le dispositif de blocage comporte un élément de freinage constitué par une bride 108 réalisée dans un matériau plastique rigide de type polycarbonate et présente une forme générale tronconique.In this second embodiment, the locking device comprises a braking element constituted by a
La bride 108 est disposée dans une chemise 160 rapportée à l'intérieur de l'arbre 106 et rendue solidaire en rotation de ce dernier par l'insertion de doigts 161 portés par la surface interne de l'arbre 106 dans des fentes 162 ménagées sur la chemise 160.The
La chemise 160 est insérée dans l'arbre 106 creux par le sommet de ce dernier et comporte une extrémité supérieure fermée par une paroi tronconique 163 comprenant une surface inférieure présentant une forme complémentaire de la bride 108 tronconique.The
La bride 108 est fixée à l'extrémité inférieure d'une tige 181 traversant une ouverture 163A ménagée au sommet de la paroi tronconique 163 et est montée coulissante en translation dans une ouverture 152 ménagée à l'extrémité supérieure du manchon 151, la tige 181 présentant une section transversale non circulaire coopérant avec la forme de l'ouverture 152 pour empêcher la rotation de la tige 181 dans l'ouverture 152 de manière à ce que le cintre 4 soit solidaire en rotation de la tige 181. A titre d'exemple, la tige 181 et l'ouverture 152 présentent une section transversale rectangulaire.The

Lorsque l'utilisateur souhaite immobiliser le cintre 4 dans une position donnée, il lui suffit de saisir le levier de commande 107 et de le faire basculer de 90° vers la position bloquée illustrée sur la
Bien entendu, si l'utilisateur souhaite pouvoir faire tourner le cintre 4 sur le mât 11 il lui suffit d'amener de nouveau le levier de commande 107 dans la position débloquée pour libérer la pression exercée par la bride 108 sur la paroi tronconique 163.Of course, if the user wishes to be able to rotate the
Le dispositif de blocage selon ce second mode de réalisation présente l'avantage d'être simple et économique à réaliser et d'assurer un blocage en rotation plus puissant que celui décrit dans le premier mode de réalisation grâce au frottement de la bride en matériau rigide contre la paroi tronconique de la chemise.The locking device according to this second embodiment has the advantage of being simple and economical to produce and of ensuring a more powerful rotation locking than that described in the first embodiment thanks to the friction of the flange made of rigid material. against the tapered wall of the liner.
Bien entendu, l'invention n'est nullement limitée au mode de réalisation décrit et illustré qui n'a été donné qu'à titre d'exemple. Des modifications restent possibles, notamment du point de vue de la constitution des divers éléments ou par substitution d'équivalents techniques, sans sortir pour autant du domaine de protection de l'invention.Of course, the invention is in no way limited to the embodiment described and illustrated which has been given only by way of example. Modifications remain possible, in particular from the point of view of the constitution of the various elements or by substitution of technical equivalents, without thereby departing from the scope of protection of the invention.
Ainsi dans une autre variante de réalisation non représentée, l'appareil pourra comporter, en plus du cintre, une barre supérieure munie de pinces, s'étendant entre les deux extrémités longitudinales du cintre, permettant de maintenir le vêtement à repasser.Thus in another variant embodiment not shown, the apparatus may include, in addition to the hanger, an upper bar provided with clips, extending between the two longitudinal ends of the hanger, making it possible to hold the garment to be ironed.
Ainsi dans une autre variante de réalisation non représentée, le cintre pourra également comporter une surface de repassage, tel un rideau, pouvant être tendue verticalement entre le cintre et une barre inférieure rapportée sur le mât.Thus in another variant embodiment not shown, the hanger may also include an ironing surface, such as a curtain, which can be stretched vertically between the hanger and a lower bar attached to the mast.
Ainsi, dans une variante de réalisation non représentée, l'organe de commande du dispositif de blocage pourra être constitué par un levier monté rotatif autour de l'axe longitudinal de la tige, le levier venant prendre appui sur une paroi munie de reliefs formant des cames de sorte que la rotation du levier autour de l'axe longitudinal de la tige provoque le déplacement en translation du levier selon cet axe longitudinal.Thus, in an alternative embodiment not shown, the control member of the locking device may be constituted by a lever mounted to rotate about the longitudinal axis of the rod, the lever coming to rest on a wall provided with reliefs forming cams so that the rotation of the lever around the longitudinal axis of the rod causes the lever to move in translation along this longitudinal axis.
