Abstract

The invention relates to ironing devices that have an intuitive steam emitting feature while the controlling of other functionalities of the ironing device remains possible. The proposed ironing device (1) comprises: a base (2); a handle (3) moveable relative to the base (2); a resilient member (9) biasing the handle in an upper position and allowing movement of the handle upon exertion of a force thereon by a user towards a lower position; a steam controller (4) operatively connected to the handle (3) such that the release of steam of the ironing device (1) at least in part is intuitively controlled by the force exerted on the handle (3) by the user; a console (6) that is connected with the base (2) and that is provided with at least one operating button (7); and at least one recess (5) in the handle at least partly accommodating the console (6), the console (6) and the handle (3) being configured so that the at least one operating button (7) is operable with the same hand that holds the handle (3).

Description

Technical field

[0001] The invention relates to an ironing device. More specifically, the present invention relates to the arrangement and structural design of the handle of an ironing device. Background technique

[0002] Several ironing devices have been proposed in the prior art. French patent FR 602 293 proposes an ironing device with a pivotally connected handle, and when an operating force is applied to the handle, the handle opens the valve to generate steam. After the operating force is removed, the valve is closed and steam generation is stopped.

[0003] The disadvantage of this ironing device is that the pivot of the handle of this device is positioned at the rear end of the handle, which requires the user to apply an impractical forward tilt force to the handle to release steam.

[0004] Another disadvantage is that the ironing device in this document does not allow to control other functions, such as spray function, steam spray function, fixed dose and / or measurement ...

Embodiment Construction

[0022] figure 1 A side view of the ironing device 1 is depicted. The ironing device 1 includes a base 2 and a handle 3. An ironing bottom 15 is arranged below the base 2, which may be provided with steam and / or water holes 16. A reservoir 13 for water is arranged in the base 2 or the handle 3. Even though figure 1 In this case, the reservoir is arranged in the ironing device. Alternatively, the reservoir may be a separate or remote reservoir, for example connected to the ironing device via a water or steam transport line. During the use of the ironing device 1, steam may be generated when ironing clothes and released or discharged through the holes 16.

[0023] in figure 1 Here, the handle 3 is pivotally connected to the base 2 by a pivot 8. The handle 3 is also provided with a cutout or recess 5 in which the console 6 is placed. On the console 6, operation buttons, controls 7 and / or displays can be arranged. The lower side of the console 6 is installed on the base 2 of the ...
