1 Claim.
My invention relates to a new and improved pressing iron.
One of the objects of my `invention is to lmprove a pressing iron ol the type in which steam is admitted to the iron, and said steam is allowed to pass out through holes which are provided in the bottom or pressing 'face of the iron.
Another object of my invention is to improve an iron of this type in which a heater is provided, so as to heat the steam which is admitted from a boiler, which is external to the iron.
While the invention applies particularly to an iron which is connected to an external boiler, it also applies to an iron in which water in regulated quantities may'be permitted to enter the iron, said water being vaporized within the iron by the heater.
Other objects oi my invention are to provide suitable passages whereby the steam will be thoroughly heated by the heating element or device, before the steam passes out of the-iron.
Other objects of my invention will be set forth in the following description and drawings which illustrate a preferred embodiment thereof, it being understood that the above general statement of the objects of my invention is intended merely to generally explain the same and not to limit it in any manner.
Fig. 1 is a perspective view.
Fig. 2 is a sectional 'view on the line 2-2 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a top plan view of the base of the iron.
Fig. 4 is a side elevation of Fig. 3.
Fig. 5 is a bottom plan view of the base of the iron.
Referring to Fig. 1, the iron generally includes a base I anda cover 2. The iron may include other conventional features such as a handle 3 and a valve 4 which is operated by a lever 5, in order to admit steam or water in regulated vquantities, into the base of the iron.
The device also includesa heater H, which may be an electrical heater of any suitable type. This heater directly abuts the top of the base I.
The base 4I may be made of any suitable metal or alloy, such as iron, steel, bronze or the like.
A metal plate 6 is superposed on the heater H and va rheostat R is located above the plate 6. The rheostat R is regulated by means of a turnable handle which is provided with a linger hold l. The rheostat also includes the usual contact buttons 8.
The metal plate 6 extends substantially over the entire top of the base I and it serves to The enters the base I, through the inlet passage I0. lo
The base I is provided with one or more passages in the top part thereof, and with one or ,more passages in the bottom part thereof.
In this particular embodiment, the inlet opening I0 communicates with a cylindrical passage l5 II which is of smaller diameter than the inlet opening I0. The passage II communicates with lateral passages I2 and I4 which are at substantially the same level as the passage II. The lateral passage I2 communicates with a longitudinal passage I5, and the lateral passage I4 communicates with a longitudinal passage I6. The passages I5 and I6 are also preferably cylindrical in cross section and they are at the same level with the passages II, I2 and I4.
These passages can be formed by boring suitable openings in the base I, and plugging the ends of these openings by means of suitable plugs P. These plugs P can `be made of any suitable metal and they can be held in position by means of a drive t, welding, cooperating screw threads or the like.
The longitudinal passages I5 and I6 communicate with lateral passages I'I and I8 at the rear or butt end of the iron and these passages Il and I8 are also at the same level as the passages I I-IB, inclusive.
The lateral passages I'I and I8 communicate with additional longitudinal passages I9 and 20 which are also locatedat the upper level previously mentioned.
The passages I9 and 20 respectively communicate with vertical bores 2| and 22 which communicate with longitudinal passages 23 and 24, which are provided at the lower level of the base.
The passages 23 and 24 communicate with inclined passages 25 and 26, which extend towards the tip of the base I. The passages 23-26 inclusive are provided with openings 2l, through which the steam passes to the fabric or garment which is being ironed. Screws or other fastening devices S clamp the cover against thebase I, and this clamping retains the members H and 6 and R in proper position. Supplemental fastening devices may be provided, but these are un- Cil necessary in view of the clamping grip which is produced by means of the members S. These members S pass through internal openings 28 in the base I, so that the shanks of the members S clear the various passages which have been previously described.
When steam is admitted into the inlet opening I0, the steam traverses substantially the entire length of the base of the iron, said steam is then divided into two lateral streams or currents, these separate steam currents then move longitudinally substantially through the entire base, they again move laterally through the passages I 'I and I8, and they then move longitudinally in the passages I9 and 20, through the maximum distance which is permitted by the tapered shape of the base of the iron.
While the steam or other fluid moves through said upper passages in the base of the iron, the fluid is thoroughly heated by means of the heater H. The heat is also conducted by the plate 6 over the top face of the base I.
The thoroughly heated steam, which is nowV dry and at a proper temperature, then passes to the lower passages 23-26.
Said lower passages 23-26 are preferably all in the same plane.
When I refer to the passages as bores. I do not wish to be limited to a construction in which the base is initially formed solid and in which the bores are subsequently formed. although this is the cheapest and most convenient way of forming such bores.
It will be noted that the bore II extends substantially from the butt end oi the base to the point thereof and that it Is substantially located at the median line of the base, so that the bore I I has maximum length.
I have shown a preferred embodiment of my 5 invention, but it is clear that numerous changes and omissions could be made without departing from its spirit.
I claim:
A basefor a atiron, said base being provided 10 with an inlet bore I I at its upper portion, and which ext/ends substantially from the butt end of the base to the point thereof, and being located substantially at the median line of said base, said bore II communicating at its front end with l5 transverse bores I2 and I4, said transverse bores I2 and I4 communicating with bores I5 and I6 which extend substantially to the butt end of the base, said bores I5 and I6 communicating with transverse bores I1 and I8 adjacent the butt end 20 of the base. the bores ILand I8 communicating with longitudinal bores I9 and 20 which terminate at substantially the transverse median line of the base, the bores I9 and 20 being connected by means of vertical bores 20 and 2 I, at substan- 25 tially said transverse median line, with outlet bores which are located at the lower part of the base, said outlet bores being closed at their ends and having openings which communicate with the bottom face of the iron. the bores which precede 30 the vertical bores 2I and 22 being all located at the upper part of the base.
