Problems solved by technology

In addition, there is another problem with irons according to the prior art that water may flow out of the pressure equalization system when the water container is filled and therefore when the iron is kept in a substantially vertical position.
That is to say, with the arrangement of the pressure equalization system in this way, it can occur that, in a rearward-poured configuration, water can also flow along the flexible pipe to the front end and drip down there.

Embodiment Construction

[0032] Identical or functionally identical components are provided with the same reference symbols in the figures.

[0033] exist figure 1 A cross-sectional view of a first embodiment of an iron according to the invention is shown in , which in this embodiment consists of a steam iron. Shows the state of the iron filling the iron water container. For this purpose the iron is oriented such that the front or tip 11 of the iron is oriented essentially vertically downwards.

[0034] The iron has a rear or rearward portion 21 and a handle portion 22 . Furthermore, there is a water container 3 in the iron. In the exemplary embodiment shown, the iron has in this rear part 21 a rear iron opening 23 through which the water container 3 can be filled with liquid, in particular water. For this purpose, the water container 3 is arranged in such a way that the filling opening 31 opens into the opening 23 of the iron body 2 and can be closed hermetically by means of a closure element or ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a steam iron, comprising a steam chamber (4) for generating steam for ironing, a water container (3), which is associated with the steam chamber, a water feed opening (23), which can be hermetically sealed by means of a locking element (6) and comprises at least one water container vent opening (36a, 36b), a pressure compensating system (5), which comprises at least one vent line (50a, 50b), which is connected to a first end section (51a) with the at least one water container vent opening (36a, 36b), and a first air inlet / air outlet opening (53a), via which a first spaced end section (52a) of the at least one vent line (50a, 50b) is connected to the outside of the water container for compensating air pressure differences between the inside and the outside of the water container.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a steam iron with a steam chamber for generating steam for ironing and a water container, which is attached to the steam chamber and has a water filling hole which can be hermetically closed by means of a closure element and at least one vent hole. The iron also has a pressure equalization system having at least one exhaust duct for equalizing the air pressure difference between the inside and outside of the water container. Background technique [0002] An iron is known from patent document WO 2005 / 014916, which has a vent line for equalizing the pressure between the inside of the iron water container and the environment outside the iron water container. The steam iron described in this document has an iron body and a water container, in which a hole is formed in the rear of the iron body, through which the water container can be filled with water. The filling hole is arranged at the level of the soleplate of the iron and is ...
