  • the alternative situation can be, for example, a vertical working position for ironing hanging curtains.
  • the alternative layer may be a vertical rest position of the steam iron. While a shot of steam in the vertical working position in the exemplary ironing curtains is basically welcomed to increase the ironing quality, a shot of steam in the vertical rest position can in particular fulfill a cooling function for cooling the soleplate, such as in the WO 96/23299 A1 described.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a steam iron for domestic use, which prevents in a simple device engineering effort a shot of steam in a deviating from a horizontal working position alternative situation.
  • a domestic steam iron has a steam generating means for generating steam having a steam chamber and a heater, a water tank for supplying cold water to the steam generating means, and a pump for feeding cold water into the steam chamber.
  • the steam iron has a position sensor for determining layers of the steam iron, the pump being deactivated in an alternative position deviating from a horizontal working position.
  • Deactivation prevents the pump from delivering water to the steam chamber. In this case, both a steam pulse is prevented regardless of the set ironing program according to a predetermined by the respective ironing program automatic steam level and according to a manually set by the consumer steam level.
  • the position sensor is a water guidance free component and is therefore subject to no calcification as a prescribed cold water circulation guide.
  • the position sensor can be easily integrated into an existing device electronics or the device electronics can be easily modified to take into account the position sensor and the deactivatable pump. Other electrical functions remain activated when deactivating the pump, so that a sole heating remains energized and a cooling of the sole is prevented.
  • the position sensor is a ball sensor with a ball, which is in the horizontal working position in an open position and in the alternative position in a closed position.
  • a position sensor is in particular technically simple to execute, precise, reliable and low maintenance.
  • a timekeeper for deactivating the pump is furthermore provided according to the invention provided after a predetermined waiting time during which the ball is in its closed position.
  • the ball could namely be moved back and forth by the horizontal ironing movements between its open position and its closed position, whereby the pump would be constantly deactivated and activated without taking into account such a waiting time, which would make the ironing much more difficult.
  • due to consideration of the waiting time such activation and deactivation in the horizontal working position is prevented, whereby a high-quality ironing result can be achieved.
  • the waiting time is ⁇ 0.15 and ⁇ 1 second.
  • the waiting time is ⁇ 0.25 seconds and ⁇ 0.7 seconds.
  • the timer detects a time during which the ball is in its closed position, wherein the steam iron switches off after exceeding a predetermined waiting time.
  • the timer can detect a non-contact time of a handle sensor, the steam iron turns off after exceeding a predetermined non-contact waiting time.
  • the handle sensor is preferably a capacitive sensor that responds to touches of the iron handle by a hand.
  • timekeeper each time when the ball again in the open position (working position of the steam iron) and thus "reset or zeroed" is.
  • the steam iron has a manual steam impingement element.
  • the steam-impingement element acts, for example, on a separate mechanical pump, so that no elaborate control and / or control is necessary in order to bypass the deactivated pump when the steam-impingement element is actuated.
  • the invention is particularly suitable for providing a steam iron for domestic use, with a device-technically simple and reliable deactivation of a pump outside a horizontal working position of the steam iron.
  • FIG. 1 shows a longitudinal section through an embodiment of a steam iron according to the invention.
  • FIG. 1 is a longitudinal section through an embodiment of a steam iron according to the invention 1 for domestic use in a horizontal working position shown.
  • the steam iron 1 has a housing 2 with a handle 4 and a sole 6.
  • the sole 6 is heated and provided with holes not shown for ejecting steam.
  • a device electronics for controlling and regulating ironing programs is arranged, of which individual elements are numbered below.
  • a steam generating device is arranged in the housing 2, which comprises a steam chamber 8 and a heating device 10.
  • the steam iron 1 has a water tank 12, which is connected via a fluid line 14 to the steam chamber 8.
  • a pump 16 is arranged for demand-adequate cold water supply into the steam chamber 8.
  • the steam iron 1 When connecting the power cable 18 with a house network, the steam iron 1 is turned on and thus transferred to an operating state by the sole 6 and the heater 10 of the steam chamber 8 are heated according to a set ironing program.
  • a capacitive sensor 22 is arranged in the handle 4.
  • the capacitive sensor 22 mentioned in the following grip sensor registers whether the handle 4 of the steam iron is gripped by a hand or not.
  • the handle sensor 22 in order to prevent an immediate shutdown of the steam iron 1 when releasing the handle, the handle sensor 22, as indicated by the line 24, cooperates with a timer 26 of the device electronics.
  • the timer 26 detects a non-contact time of the handle sensor 22, so that only after exceeding a predetermined non-contact waiting time t GSA (waiting time of the handle sensor for switching off the steam iron) the steam iron 1 is automatically switched off.
  • the automatic shutdown of the steam iron 1 is represented by the line 28 between the timer 26 and the main switching unit 20. "Shutdown" means that the steam iron 1 is disconnected from the house network and thus completely no longer energized.
  • the automatic shutdown via the handle sensor 22 is activated both in the horizontal working position of the steam iron 1, as well as in an alternative to the horizontal working position alternative situation and thus independent of position.
  • An alternative situation is, for example, a vertical rest position of the steam iron 1 on its tail 30 or an inclination from the horizontal working position when turning off the steam iron 1 on a base.
  • the device electronics is designed such that in the horizontal working position a pump is activated to generate a steam pulse, while in an alternative position outside the horizontal working position, the pump is automatically deactivated. In this case, both a steam pulse is prevented regardless of the set ironing program according to a predetermined by the respective ironing program automatic steam level and according to a manually set by the consumer steam level.
  • the steam iron 1 and the device electronics has a position sensor 32.
  • the position sensor 32 detects layers of the steam iron 1 and is for example a ball sensor with a Ball, which is in the horizontal working position of the steam iron 1 in an open position and in an alternative position in a closed position.
  • the position sensor 32 acts, as indicated by the line 34, with the timer 26 together.
  • the timer 26 is provided for deactivating the pump only after a predetermined waiting time t LSD (waiting time of the position sensor for deactivating the pump), during which the ball is in its closed position. This prevents that the pump is deactivated immediately at each position shift of the ball, whereby the ironing would be much more difficult in the horizontal working position.
  • the device electronics registered so whether the ball assumes its closed position due to ironing movements in a horizontal working position or due to a shutdown of the steam iron 1 in a vertical rest position.
  • the automatic deactivation of the pump after the waiting time t LSD is indicated by the line 36 between the timer 26 and the pump 16.
  • the timer 26 takes the time when the ball is in its closed position. If, as in ironing due to the horizontal movement of the steam iron 1, the ball is regularly moved back and forth between its open position and its closed position, but the waiting time t LSD is not exceeded, the pump is not deactivated.
  • the waiting time t LSD moves, for example, in the time interval 0.15 s ⁇ t LSD ⁇ 1 s. Preferably, the waiting time moves in the following time interval: 0.25 s ⁇ t LSD ⁇ 0.7 s.
  • the timer 26 may alternatively or additionally to the handle sensor 22 ein.weitere time detect during which the ball is in its closed position, wherein the steam iron 1 after exceeding a predetermined waiting time t LSA (waiting time position sensor for switching off the steam iron) switches off. This will an automatic shutdown of the steam iron 1 based on the position sensor 32 made.
  • t LSD wait time position sensor for switching off the steam iron
  • the steam iron 1 has a manual steam blast element 40.
  • the manual steam blast element 40 acts on a mechanical pump, not shown, by means of a manual one in a vertical working position Steam can be generated. It is independent of the pump described above, as sketched by the line 42 to the water tank 12 and by the line 44 to the steam chamber 8.
  • the steam impingement element 40 is, for example, a push button guided in a housing opening. Of course, even in a horizontal or other working position, a manual steam burst can be generated by actuating the steam blast element 40.
  • a steam iron 1 for domestic use, with a steam generating means for generating steam, which has a steam chamber 8 and a heater 10, with a water tank 12 for providing cold water for the steam generating means and with a pump 16 for conveying cold water in the Steam chamber 10, wherein the steam iron 1 has a position sensor 32 for determining layers of the steam iron 1, wherein in a different from a horizontal working position alternative situation, a pump 16 is deactivated; wherein the position sensor 32 is a ball sensor with a ball which is in an open position in the horizontal operating position and in a closed position in the alternative position; and wherein a timer 26 is provided for deactivating the pump after a predetermined waiting time t LSD during which the ball is in its closed position.
