Problems solved by technology

Therefore, the use performance of the iron when it is reversed is poor
[0008] That is to say, it is difficult for conventional cordless irons to have the following two functions at the same time: make the rear end 102 of the soleplate 101 a pointed shape to suppress the generation of folds, and increase the area of ​​the soleplate 101 to ensure heat capacity to reduce temperature drop.
Also, when the iron is moved backward, it is difficult to visually observe the rear end portion 102

[0064] Figure 9 It is a partial cross-sectional view of a cordless iron according to a second embodiment of the present invention. The cordless iron of the present embodiment is different from the cordless iron of the first embodiment in that the casing 25 covering the upper surface side of the rear end portion 6 b is constituted by the heat shield 90 covering the upper surface side of the base 3 . Other structures are the same as those of the first embodiment.

[0065] According to the structure of this embodiment, the upper surface side from the front-end part 6a to the rear-end part 6b can be covered seamlessly with the heat insulating board 90. As shown in FIG. Thereby, the thermal insulation effect of the base 3 can be improved, and the structure can be simplified.

[0067] Figure 10 It is a partial cross-sectional view of a cordless iron according to a third embodiment of the present invention. The cordless iron of the present embodiment is different from the cordless iron of the first embodiment in that a protector 32 is provided on the housing portion upper wall 18c of the power supply unit 18 constituting the upper surface of the housing portion 24 . Other structures are the same as those of the first embodiment.

[0068] The protector 32 is made of heat-resistant rubber or the like. When the iron body 1 is detached from the stand 16 , the protector 32 can prevent the rear end portion 6 b from coming into contact with the housing portion upper wall 18 c of the power supply portion 18 .

[0069] When the iron main body 1 is placed on the stand 16 , the power receiving terminal 15 passes through the hole 19 of the power feeding part 18 and is connected to the electrode 20 . In addition, the support portion 22 is fitted into the slit ...

Abstract

An iron main body (1) comprises: an ironing face (6) in which a front end section (6a) and a rear end section (6b) are formed in a tapered shape; and a concave power-receiving section (14) having a power-receiving terminal (15). A stand (16) comprises: a placement section (17) on which the iron main body (1) is placed at an inclination with the front thereof raised; a convex power supply section (18) having an electrode (20); and an accommodating section (24). When the cordless iron is placed with the iron main body (1) on the stand (16), the rear end section (6b) is accommodated in the accommodating section (24), the power-receiving section (14) and the power supply section (18) fit together, and the power-receiving terminal (15) and the electrode (20) electrically connect. In addition, the portion of the power-receiving terminal (15) connected to the electrode (20) is positioned forward of the rear end section (6b). Therefore, the area of the ironing face (6) is maintained and thermal capacity is maintained, and it is possible for the rear end section (6b) to be formed in a tapered shape. Also, the rear end section (6b) is visible.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an iron for ironing wrinkles of clothes, in particular to a cordless iron whose main body does not have a power cord. Background technique [0002] The soleplate which is the bottom surface of the iron has a shape with a pointed end. The clothes can be smoothed out by sliding the bottom plate on the clothes in the direction of the front end. Thereby, the wrinkles of the clothes are smoothed out. In addition, by using the front end portion of the pointed sole plate, the iron can easily iron delicate parts such as around buttons of the clothes. [0003] Use an iron in places where space is limited, such as an ironing table. In this case, the iron repeats the reciprocating motion of advancing toward the front end and retreating in the opposite direction. The rear end of the soleplate of a common iron is not pointed. Therefore, when the bottom plate slides on the clothes and retreats, the clothes are not smoothed suffi...
