Definitions
- the present invention relates to electric steam irons ⁇ meals which include a soleplate comprising a base heated by means of an electric resistance and an ironing plate mounted under said base, a so-called main vaporization chamber practi ⁇ quée in the base, closed by a cover and supplied with water by means of an injection device through an opening in the cover, and a steam distribution chamber in relation to outlet holes steam pierced in the plate.
- the steam distribution chamber is provided in the upper face of the heating base, at the periphery of the base and outside the main vaporization chamber by being separated from the latter by a partition, and communicating with said vaporization chamber by at least one passage made in the partition; the distribution chamber has steam distribution orifices in correspondence with steam outlet holes drilled in the ironing plate.
- This type of iron has the major drawback of not providing a perfect seal between the main vaporization chamber and the distribution chamber. Indeed, following a manufacturing or assembly defect, a certain play may occur between the cover and the partition separating these two chambers, so that non-vaporized water can pass directly from the vaporization chamber to the distribution chamber, causing the risk of projection of water droplets through the outlet holes.
- the splash wet clothes which affects the quality of ironing, and after several thermal cycles, small plates of limestone ar r to ivent pass into the distribution chamber, eventually blocking the distribution orifices, and therefore the outlet holes.
- the object of the invention is in particular to remedy these drawbacks and to produce a steam iron, of the type described above, the sole of which uses an improved design allowing good quality ironing, suitable for manufacturing in large series and reduced cost.
- the main vaporization chamber has at least one vapor passage which opens out on the underside of the base and which is arranged so that the steam travels in said main vaporization chamber along a suitable route.
- the steam distribution chamber is formed in the lower face of the base and is in communication with the outlet of said vapor passage.
- the main vaporization chamber being defined by a peripheral partition on which the cover rests and comprising a plurality of steam passages, these passages consist of che ⁇ vertical mines arranged on the edge of said peripheral partition, opening into the steam distribution chamber and rising towards the cover, leaving at least a small space with said cover so as to allow the passage of steam by said space in the upper part of each of the chimneys.
- the vertical chimneys are two in number and are arranged respectively on the two opposite lateral sides of the peripheral partition of the main vaporization chamber.
- the two vertical chimneys are symmetrical with respect to the longitudinal axis of the saddle and are each located substantially in the central lateral region of the vaporization chamber.
- FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view of a se ⁇ melle equipped with a cover of a steam iron according to the invention
- FIG. 2 is a top view of a heating base of the sole of Figure 1, the cover being removed;
- - Figure 3 is a bottom view of this heating base;
- - Figure 4 is a sectional view along line IV-IV of Figure 2, the cover being in place;
- FIG. 5 is a plan view of the external face of an ironing plate for the sole of FIG. 1.
- the electric steam iron comprises a soleplate, designated by the general reference 10 in FIG. 1, which extends longitudinally from a region forming a point 12 towards a region forming heel 13 and which comprises a base or body 15 made of a molded metal material such as, for example, aluminum, equipped with a sheet metal cover 17 and heated by means of an electrical resistance shielded 18 embedded in its mass and having a U shape, as well as a thin ironing plate 21 made of a metallic material such as, for example, chromed steel or stainless steel, mounted on the underside 23 of the heating base 15 by any suitable fixing means and the external face 25 of which forms an ironing surface.
- the heating base 15 ( Figures 2 and 3) and the ironing plate 21 ( Figure 5) of the sole have the same longitudinal axis of symmetry, denoted XX '.
- a so-called main vaporization chamber 28 d.l muted by a vertical peripheral partition 30 better visible in FIG. 2, closed by the cover 17 bearing on the peripheral partition 30 (see FIG. 4), and communicating with a steam distribution chamber, designated at 32 in FIG. 3 and that will be described later, which is closed by the plate 21 and which is in connection with steam outlet holes 33 drilled in said pla ⁇ that 21.
- a steam distribution chamber designated at 32 in FIG. 3 and that will be described later, which is closed by the plate 21 and which is in connection with steam outlet holes 33 drilled in said pla ⁇ that 21.
- the branches of the resistance armored 18 in U are surrounded by the vaporization chamber 28.
- the main vaporization chamber 28, of large volume, for example of the order of 50 cm 3 , is intended to produce a continuous stream of steam at low pressure by being supplied with water by means of an injection device (not shown) through an opening 36 made in the cover 17.
- the main vaporization chamber 28 comprises at least one vapor passage 44 which opens onto the lower face 23 of the heating br.se 15 and which is arranged so that the steam travels in the vaporization chamber 28 following. a path adapted to favor the vaporization of the water before reaching the passage 44, and the steam distribution chamber 32 is formed in the lower face 23 of the base 15 and is in communication with the outlet of the steam passage 44.
- the two steam through passages 44 are constituted by two identical vertical chimneys produced respectively on the two opposite lateral sides of the peripheral partition 30 of the vaporization chamber 28, and which are symmetrical with respect to the axis XX ' each being located substantially in the central lateral region of the main vaporization chamber 28.
- the two lateral chimneys 44 rise towards the closing cover 17, leaving a small internal space, visible at 46 in FIG. 4, with the cover 17, remaining on at least one part. so as to allow the passage of steam through said space 46 in the upper part of each of the two chimneys 44.
- the vapor being able to leave the main vaporization chamber 28 only in the upper part of each of the two chimneys 44, these are hardly subject to projections of water droplets, thereby making it possible to avoid plugging the holes in the ironing plate 21, and therefore obtaining good quality ironing, even in the case of vertical steaming.
- each of the two lateral chimneys 44 has a determined minimum section of the order of at least 20 mm 2 , this minimum value corresponding to sufficient exhaust of the vapor in the upper part of the two chimneys in order to ensure diffusion. continuous jets of steam on the clothes.
- each of the two lateral chimneys 44 has a substantially oblong shape and is delimited vertically by a section 30a of the peripheral partition 30 of the main vaporization chamber 28 and a partition 48 formed in the vaporization chamber 28 and extending near the cover 17 so as to provide therewith the internal space 46 for the passage of steam in the upper part of the chimney 44, see FIG. 4.
- the steam distribution chamber 32 is presently constituted by a groove hollowed out in the lower face 23 of the heating base 15 and having a substantially V-shaped shape, the two branches 32a, 32b of which extend respectively along and near the two lateral edges 15a, 15b of the base 15 and the tip 50 of which is located in the tip region 12 of the base.
