Embodiment Construction

[0026] A steam iron 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention is illustrated in figure 1 and includes a housing 2 with an integral handle 3 . The soleplate 4 is mounted to the housing 2 and is electrically heated to remove wrinkles from the garment when the garment is laid flat on a flat surface such as the ironing board 1a and the soleplate 4 is pressed against and moved across the garment. The steam iron 1 is also provided with a reservoir (not shown) in the housing 2 to contain water for supply to a steam generator 5 located in the soleplate 4 for generating steam for passing through the soleplate 4 The dispensing opening 4a passes to assist wrinkle removal. Alternatively, the reservoir may be placed outside the housing, for example in a separate base, and the water conveyed to the steam generator via a hose.

[0027] figure 1 The steam iron is shown in a typical in-use or ironing position with the soleplate 4 facing downwards so that the weight of the iron 1...

Abstract

The present application relates to a steam iron comprising a steam generator and a sealed chamber having an inlet positioned such that calcified deposits formed in the steam generator when the iron is moved from an ironing position to a non-ironing position are The influence of gravity falls through the entrance and into the room. The chamber includes an inlet duct extending from the inlet and leading to the collection reservoir. The inlet duct is configured such that water flowing from the steam generator through the inlet duct into the collection reservoir when the iron is placed in the non-ironing position is trapped in the chamber when the iron is moved back to the ironing position. middle. This occurs due to the balance of pressure between the water in the collection reservoir acting against the water filling the inlet pipe and the atmospheric pressure across the inlet acting against the water filling the inlet pipe.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a steam iron having a chamber to receive calcified deposits. Background technique [0002] A steam iron has a housing with a handle, a heel on which the iron rests when not in use, and a heated soleplate to remove wrinkles from clothing. The steam iron also has a reservoir to contain water which is supplied to the steam generator to generate steam which is sprayed onto the clothes through steam distribution openings in the soleplate to assist in wrinkle removal when the clothes are ironed. [0003] A conventional steam iron may be provided with a chamber in or attached to the soleplate positioned to receive the steam formed in the steam generator as a result of the steam generating process, especially when the water used to generate the steam is hard. Calcified deposits, often called "scale". Typically, the chamber is positioned towards the rear of the iron so that whenever the iron is placed on its heel, the calcified deposi...
