Thermostat control device with rack and pinion

An electric steam iron for pressing fabrics, which iron includes an ironing sole plate, an electrically operated heating element disposed for heating the sole plate by converting an electric current to heat, and a switch unit for automatically reducing flow of electric current to the heating element when the iron is not in use. The sole plate is formed to have a low heat capacity, and the iron is further provided with a stiffening structure via which the sole plate is fixed in position in the iron, the stiffening structure being permeable to steam and being made of a thermally insulating material.

A heating structure in the form of a sandwich is composed of first and second external elements, each having a face which is directed toward the other element, with the first external element constituting a heating plate, and the heating structure further including a heating unit interposed between the first and second external elements. The heating unit includes at least one substantially flat resistive heat generating element; a first layer of thermoplastic resin in which the heat generating element is embedded; an upper electrical insulating sheet and a lower electrical insulating sheet between which the resistive heat generating element and the first layer of thermoplastic resin are interposed to form a sandwich structure, with the first layer of thermoplastic resin adhering to each of the electrical insulating sheets; and at least one second layer of thermoplastic resin contacting one of the external elements and adhering the one of the external elements to the heating unit. The heating unit further includes at least one further electrical insulating sheet contacting, and adhering to, the at least one second layer of thermoplastic resin; and an intermediate layer of adhesive material interposed between, and adhering to, one of the upper and lower electrical insulating sheets and the at least one further electrical insulating sheet.

Evaporation chamber with anti-calefaction layer

A steam iron has a reservoir from which water is supplied to a vaporization chamber. A plurality of cartridges are placed within a housing of the iron and at least one cartridge contains a product other than a demineralizing product for the purpose of treating water or cloth to be ironed. A ramp is provided for bringing the water of the reservoir into contact with the treatment product. A duct beneath the cartridge conveys the water charged with the treatment product to a vaporization chamber. A plurality of steam discharge orifices in communication with the vaporization chamber distributes the treated water on the cloth to be ironed. The plurality of cartridges are arranged such that at least one is arranged in parallel or in series, or a combination of these, along a path in which water flows as it travels from the reservoir to the vaporization chamber.

An electric steam iron having a heating baseplate (1) and a vaporization chamber (2), and further including a plate (7) on which are fixed or formed at least part of the device (3) for feeding water to the vaporization chamber (2), an assembly (4) for regulating the flow of water and components for regulating the heating temperature and the electrical connections. The plate (7) and parts mounted thereon are preassembled and then assembled as a module into the iron.

A non-scaling electric steam iron has a heating sole plate (1), a steam chamber (3), a water reservoir (5), a feed device (6) for supplying water to the steam chamber, and a demineralizing cartridge (7) placed in the water circuit which connects the reservoir (5) to the steam chamber (3). The demineralizing cartridge (7) is placed in a removable manner between the primary plain-water reservoir (5) and a secondary demineralized-water reservoir (25) which communicates with the water feed device (6). The cartridge (7) communicates with the Primary reservoir (5) and the secondary reservoir (25) by the use of valves (27a,27b) which prevent any outflow of water when the cartridge is removed from the iron.
