Flat iron including evaporation chamber connected with scale recycle chamber of scale-removing hole

Abstract

The invention relates to a flat iron (1). The flat iron (1) comprises an ironing base plate (2); a heating main body (6) and a housing (3) are mounted on the ironing base plate (2); and the housing (3) comprises a rear surface (33), the rear surface (33) is connected inside a base (4). When the ironing is not operated, the flat iron (1) can be placed using the base (4). The heating main body (6) comprises a steam distribution loop, the steam distribution loop comprises an evaporation chamber (64), the evaporation chamber (64) is connected with a scale recycle chamber (80), the scale recycle chamber (80) is positioned at a rear part of the flat iron (1) and comprises a scale-removing hole (84), the scale-removing hole (84) is closed by a detachable plug (9), the plug (9) can be contacted from the external of the flat iron, and the plug (9) is arranged on the rear surface (33) of the housing (3).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an iron comprising an ironing soleplate on which a heating body and a housing are mounted, the housing comprising a rear end equipped with a base having a rear surface, during the inoperative phase of ironing When the iron can be placed on the rear surface, the heating body includes a steam distribution circuit, the steam distribution circuit includes an evaporation chamber, the evaporation chamber is connected with a scale recovery chamber, and the scale recovery chamber is arranged at the rear of the iron, and the present invention relates more specifically to An iron in which the evaporation chamber includes a descaling aperture closed by a removable plug accessible from the outside of the iron. Background technique [0002] Document FR2688807 discloses an iron comprising an ironing soleplate on which a heating body and a housing are mounted, the housing comprising a base equipped with a removable plug that has access to a h...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

This iron therefore has the disadvantage of having to lift the iron from its soleplate in order to be able to remove the plug of the descaling hole, making this operation less ergonomic

[0005] Furthermore, such irons having a plug adjacent to the soleplate have the disadvantage of greatly increasing the risk of scalding the user's hands by the hot soleplate when the user operates the plug

Finally, the adjacency of the plug and the bottom plate has the disadvantage of generating high thermal stresses on the plug, so that the plug should be made of a material that is resistant to heat and ensures good insulation, in order to avoid scalding the user when in contact with the plug
