Abstract

A method and device for pressing items of clothing-in particular, shirts, blouses and jackets-includes a pressing dummy with an inflatable bag. At least a region of the inflatable bag extends into the neck, collar, or lower hem regions of the clothing. At the end of such region is disposed an air diverter for drying adjacent surfaces of the clothing item. The air diverter is connected to the inflatable bag as far as air supply is concerned. Should the airflow be weak or non-existent, then the air diverter-at least partly-retracts into the piece of clothing. Should the airflow be active, however, then the air diverter extends and takes on the form of a mushroom head. In such a form, the air diverter is in the working position thereof and, thus, ventilates the adjacent region of the piece of clothing from the underside of the mushroom head.

Description

Bügelpuppe mit luftstromabhängiger Luftumlenkung Iron-on manikin with airflow-dependent air deflection
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung zum Bügeln von Kleidungsstücken - insbesondere von Hemden, Blusen und Jacken - mittels einer Bügelpuppe gemäß den Oberbegriffen der Ansprüche 1 , 7 und 8.The invention relates to a method and a device for ironing clothes - in particular shirts, blouses and jackets - by means of an ironing manikin according to the preambles of claims 1, 7 and 8.
Aus dem Stand der Technik ist die Schrift DE 197 30 358 A1 bekannt. Dort wird eine Vorrichtung vorgeschlagen, bei der das Bügeln auf einer Bügelpuppe erfolgt. Das Kleidungsstück wird hierbei mit seinem unteren Saum auf eine ringförmige Halterung gespannt. Die Ärmel und der Schulter- und Kragenbereich werden mittels Stütz- und/oder Halteelemen- ten fixiert. Durch einen inneren Trocknungsluftstrom wird das Kleidungsstück aufgebläht und damit getrocknet bzw. geglättet. Da Kragen und Manschetten eines Kleidungsstückes mindestens aus einer doppelten Stofflage bestehen, sind diese wegen eines höheren Feuchtigkeitsgehaltes schlechter zu trocknen. Deshalb sind in diesem Stand der Technik Luftumlenkelemente für die Manschetten und/oder für den Kragen vorgesehen. Diese Luftumlenkelemente nehmen einen Teilluftstrom aus dem Inneren des Kleidungsstückes und lenken diesen Luftstrom auf die Oberfläche des Kleidungsstückes. Dadurch werden Kragen und Manschetten nicht nur von innen her mit Wärmeenergie bzw. trockener Luft versorgt, sondern auch von außen mit dem Trocknungsmedium beaufschlagt. Die Zeitdauer des Trocknens für dickwandige Teile des Kleidungsstückes wird somit reduziert. Diese Luftumlenkelemente haben den Nachteil, daß sie beim Wechseln des Kleidungsstückes auf der Bügelpuppe, gegebenenfalls entfernt und wieder angebracht werden müssen und damit störend sind.The document DE 197 30 358 A1 is known from the prior art. There a device is proposed in which the ironing is carried out on a manikin. The garment is stretched with its lower hem on an annular holder. The sleeves and the shoulder and collar area are fixed by means of support and / or holding elements. The garment is inflated by an internal stream of drying air and thus dried or smoothed. Since the collar and cuffs of a garment consist of at least a double layer of fabric, they are more difficult to dry because of their higher moisture content. For this reason, air deflection elements are provided for the cuffs and / or for the collar in this prior art. These air deflection elements take a partial air flow from the interior of the garment and direct this air flow onto the surface of the garment. As a result, collars and cuffs are not only supplied with heat energy or dry air from the inside, but are also exposed to the drying medium from the outside. The drying time for thick-walled parts of the garment is thus reduced. These air deflection elements have the disadvantage that they have to be removed and reattached when changing the garment on the iron-on manikin, and are therefore annoying.
In der Schrift EP 0 193 483 A1 (Nachanmeldung zu FR 8500673) wird ein Verfahren und eine Bügelpuppe zum Bügeln von Kleidungsstücken beschrieben. Das Kleidungsstück wird hier zum Zwecke des Bügeins auf einen Blähsack dieser Bügelpuppe gezogen. Ein Luftstrom, der in das Innere des Blähsackes hinein bläst, durchbläst diesen und das Kleidungsstück, wobei dann das Kleidungsstück getrocknet und geglättet wird. Da der Blähsack auch in die Ärmel des Kleidungsstückes hineingreift, werden auch diese getrocknet. In einer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist der Blähsack über die Manschetten (bzw. evtl. auch über den Kragen) des Kleidungsstückes hinaus verlängert. An diesen Verlängerungen sind außen - d.h. im Bereich der Manschetten - flexible Klappen angebracht. Vor- zugsweise sind sie aus dem gleichen Material wie der Blähsack. Ist nun das Kleidungsstück auf der Bügelpuppe positioniert und der Luftstrom ist aktiviert, so werden der Blähsack und die Klappen gemeinsam und gleichzeitig von der Luft durchströmt. Durch den Luftstrom blähen sich dann der Blähsack und die Klappen auf. Der Blähsack legt sich dann von innen an das Kleidungsstück an. Die Klappen bestehen je Manschette oder Kragen - zumindest teilweise - aus zwei Zylinderhalbschalen, die mittels ihrer einen Stirnseite an den Blähsack beispielsweise angenäht sind. Durch diese geometrische Form können sich die Klappen nicht selbsttätig auf die Manschette legen. D.h., nach dem Anbringen des Kleidungsstückes auf der Bügelpuppe müssen diese Klappen manuell auf die Manschetten geklappt werden. Umgekehrt bedeutet dieses, daß beim Entfernen des Klei- dungsstückes diese Klappen von der Manschette weggeklappt werden müssen. Bei insgesamt zwei Manschetten je Kleidungsstück und möglichen Klappen im Bereich des Kragens, müssen beim Wechseln des Kleidungsstückes eine Vielzahl von Handgriffen getätigt werden. Dieses ist sehr zeitaufwendig und daher unpraktisch.A method and an ironing manikin for ironing clothes are described in the document EP 0 193 483 A1 (late application for FR 8500673). The garment is pulled onto an inflatable bag of this manikin for the purpose of ironing. An air stream that blows into the interior of the inflatable bag blows through it and the item of clothing, the item of clothing then being dried and smoothed. Since the inflatable bag also reaches into the sleeves of the garment, these are also dried. In one embodiment of the invention, the inflatable bag is extended beyond the cuffs (or possibly also over the collar) of the garment. Flexible flaps are attached to these extensions on the outside - ie in the area of the cuffs. In front- they are preferably made of the same material as the inflatable bag. If the garment is now positioned on the ironing manikin and the air flow is activated, the inflatable bag and the flaps are flowed through simultaneously and simultaneously by the air. The inflatable bag then inflates due to the air flow. The inflatable bag then lies against the inside of the garment. The flaps per cuff or collar - at least partially - consist of two cylinder half-shells which are sewn onto the inflatable bag, for example, by means of their one end face. Due to this geometric shape, the flaps cannot automatically lie on the cuff. This means that after the garment has been attached to the iron-on manikin, these flaps must be manually folded onto the cuffs. Conversely, this means that when the garment is removed, these flaps have to be folded away from the cuff. With a total of two cuffs per item of clothing and possible flaps in the area of the collar, a large number of steps have to be carried out when changing the item of clothing. This is very time consuming and therefore impractical.
Es ist deshalb Aufgabe der Erfindung, ein Verfahren oder eine Vorrichtung (in Form einer Bügelpuppe) zu finden, die die beschriebenen Nachteile nicht mehr aufweisen oder zumindest reduzieren.It is therefore an object of the invention to find a method or a device (in the form of an iron-on manikin) which no longer has or at least reduce the disadvantages described.
Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe durch die Merkmale der kennzeichnenden Teile der Ansprüche 1 , 7 und 8 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und Weiterbildungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen.According to the invention, this object is achieved by the features of the characterizing parts of claims 1, 7 and 8. Advantageous refinements and developments of the invention result from the subclaims.
Erfindungsgemäß werden für das Trocknen und Glätten von Kragen und/oder Manschetten und/oder dem unteren Saum eines Kleidungsstückes eine Luftumlenkung verwendet, die im Gegensatz zu den beschriebenen Klappen aus dem Stand der Technik sehr flexibel gestaltet sind. Der Begriff Luftumlenkung steht hier nicht nur für den Vorgang des Luftumlenkens, sondern vorrangig für ein Bauteil. Durch eine Eigenspannung dieser Luftumlenkung und durch deren flexiblen Gestaltung kann sie in Abhängigkeit von der Stärke des Luftstromes in dem Blähsack, unterschiedliche Formen annehmen. Ist der Luftstrom aktiv - d.h. die Bügelpuppe trocknet ein Kleidungsstück - so stülpt sich (hier beim Beispiel Ärmel/Manschetten) diese Luftumlenkung aus dem Teilbereich des Blähsackes, der sich in dem Ärmel des Kleidungsstückes im Bereich der Manschette befindet, heraus. Diese Ausstülpungen (Luftumlenkungen) weisen luftdurchlässige Bereiche oder Düsen auf, so daß die hier austretende Luft, die Manschette an ihrer Oberfläche trocknen kann.According to the invention, an air deflection is used for drying and smoothing the collar and / or cuffs and / or the lower hem of a garment, which, in contrast to the flaps described in the prior art, are designed to be very flexible. The term air deflection does not only stand for the process of air deflection, but primarily for a component. Due to the inherent tension of this air deflection and its flexible design, it can take on different forms depending on the strength of the air flow in the inflatable bag. If the air flow is active - that is, the ironing man dries a piece of clothing - this air deflection (here in the example of sleeves / cuffs) pulls out of the part of the inflatable bag that is in the sleeve of the garment in the area of the cuff. This Protuberances (air deflections) have air-permeable areas or nozzles, so that the air emerging here can dry the cuff on its surface.
Ist nun das Kleidungsstück fertig gebügelt, so wird der Luftstrom der Bügelpuppe zum leichteren Wechseln des Kleidungsstückes abgeschaltet oder zumindest reduziert. Durch die Eigenspannung der Luftumlenkung und weil die Druckkraft des Luftstromes nicht mehr vorhanden ist, stülpt sich die Luftumlenkung in ihrer Ausgangslage zurück. Zusätzlich können Federelemente vorgesehen sein, die die Luftumlenkung bei einem Nachlassen der Druckkraft des Luftstroms insbesondere in ihre Ausgangslage zurückziehen. Diese Federelemente können im Material der Bügelpuppe eingearbeitet sein, zum Beispiel durch Einweben von länglichen Federelementen oder Tränken mit einer nach dem Aushärten federnden Masse, oder durch das Material der Bügelpuppe selbst gebildet werden, das in Bezug auf Stärke und/oder Formgebung derart ausgeformt ist, dass sich ein rückfedernder Effekt ergibt. Dazu können auch die Bereiche der Luftumlenkung aus einem anderen Material als die Bügelpuppe sein, das Rückfedereigenschaften besitzt.If the garment is now ironed, the air flow of the ironing manikin is switched off or at least reduced to make it easier to change the garment. Due to the inherent tension of the air deflection and because the compressive force of the air flow is no longer present, the air deflection flips back into its original position. In addition, spring elements can be provided which, in particular, pull the air deflection back into its starting position when the pressure force of the air flow decreases. These spring elements can be incorporated in the material of the temple manikin, for example by weaving in elongated spring elements or drinking troughs with a resilient mass after hardening, or by the material of the temple manikin itself, which is shaped in terms of strength and / or shape, that there is a resilient effect. For this purpose, the areas of the air deflection can also be made of a different material than the manikin, which has spring-back properties.
Die Federelemente können in einem im wesentlichen zylindrischen Abschnitt der Bügelpuppe entweder längs in axialer Richtung angeordnet sein oder quer zum Umfang, um den Querschnitt des Luf-umlenkungsbereichs zu verringern, wenn die Druckkraft des Luftstroms nachlässt.The spring elements can be arranged in a substantially cylindrical section of the temple manikin either longitudinally in the axial direction or transversely to the circumference, in order to reduce the cross section of the air deflection region when the pressure force of the air flow diminishes.
Die erfindungsgemäße Luftumlenkung kann grundsätzlich auf zwei verschiedene Weisen beschaffen sein. Zum einen kann die Luftumlenkung das Ende eines Teilbereiches des Blähsackes sein. Dieses ist vorteilhaft, weil dann der Blähsack und diese Luftumlenkung eine Einheit bilden und so in einem Herstellungsverfahren gemeinsam hergestellt werden kann. Dieses reduziert Herstellungskosten und ermöglicht dadurch eine kostengünstige Bügelpuppe.The air deflection according to the invention can in principle be provided in two different ways. On the one hand, the air deflection can be the end of a partial area of the inflatable bag. This is advantageous because the inflatable bag and this air deflection then form a unit and can thus be produced together in one manufacturing process. This reduces manufacturing costs and thus enables an inexpensive iron-on manikin.
In manchen Anwendungsfällen kann es aber notwendig sein, wenn die Luftumlenkung ein separates Bauteil bildet, also nicht ein Teil des Blähsackes ist. Dieses kann dann gege- ben sein, wenn beispielsweise die Bügelpuppe mit einem relativ steifen Blähsack ausgerüstet ist, welches beispielsweise bei einer Bügelpuppe für schwere Kleidungsstücke der Fall sein kann. Auch die Luftumlenkung kann unterschiedlich beschaffen sein. Durch ihre Materialeigenschaften ist sie mit einer Elastizität und einer Eigenspannung versehen. Durch diese Eigenspannung behält die Luftumlenkung ohne äußere Krafteinwirkung ihre Ausgangsform bei. Die Ausgangsform kann wie eine zum Korpus der Bügelpuppe gerichtete Einstülpung oder wie eine rosettenartige Faltung gestaltet sein. Die Luftumlenkung kann aber auch durch zusätzliche Spannelemente in ihrer Ruhelage gehalten werden. Als Spannelemente sind federnde Bauteile wie Gummizüge oder Spangen denkbar.In some applications, however, it may be necessary if the air deflection forms a separate component, i.e. is not part of the inflatable bag. This can be the case if, for example, the temple manikin is equipped with a relatively rigid inflatable bag, which can be the case, for example, with a temple manikin for heavy items of clothing. The air deflection can also be different. Due to its material properties, it is provided with elasticity and inherent tension. Due to this internal tension, the air deflection maintains its original shape without any external force. The initial shape can be designed like an indentation directed towards the body of the temple manikin or like a rosette-like fold. The air deflection can also be kept in its rest position by additional tensioning elements. Resilient components such as elastic bands or clips are conceivable as clamping elements.
Wird nun der Blähsack mit einem Luftstrom beblasen, so wölbt sie die Luftumlenkung nach außen. Die Luftumlenkung tritt dann pilzförmig aus den Ärmeln oder dem Kragen oder unten aus dem unteren Ende des Blähsackes - im Bereich des unteren Saumes - hervor. Der "Pilzkopf" - um bei dem Vergleich zu bleiben - erhebt sich dann über die Oberfläche des Kleidungsstückes hinaus. Die Fläche des "Pilzkopfes", die dem Kleidungsstück zugewandt ist, ist luftdurchlässig gestaltet. Dieses kann entweder dadurch geschehen, daß die Luftumlenkung hier aus einem offenporigen Material besteht oder das in der dem Kleidungsstück zugewandten Fläche des "Pilzkopfes" Luftlöcher bzw. Düsen angeordnet sind. Der Teil des Pilzkopfes, der nicht dem Kleidungsstück zugewandt ist, beziehungsweise die Kappe des Pilzkopfes ist vorteilhafterweise luftundurchlässig ausgeführt, um ein Ausströmen von Luft an dieser Stelle zu verhindern. Die an dieser Stelle austretende Luft würde andernfalls ungenutzt entströmen und zu einem unnötigen Energieverlust führen.If the inflatable bag is blown with an air stream, it deflects the air deflection outwards. The air deflection then emerges in a mushroom shape from the sleeves or the collar or at the bottom from the lower end of the inflatable bag - in the area of the lower hem. The "mushroom head" - to stay with the comparison - then rises above the surface of the garment. The surface of the "mushroom head" facing the garment is designed to be permeable to air. This can be done either by the fact that the air deflection consists of an open-pored material or that air holes or nozzles are arranged in the surface of the "mushroom head" facing the garment. The part of the mushroom head that does not face the garment or the cap of the mushroom head is advantageously made air-impermeable to prevent air from escaping at this point. The air escaping at this point would otherwise escape unused and lead to an unnecessary loss of energy.
Es soll der Vollständigkeit halber erwähnt werden, daß die vorliegende Erfindung aber auch beim Bügeln mittels einer Bügelpuppe angewendet werden kann, bei der der Blähsack luftundurchlässig gestaltet ist. Bei diesen Bügelpuppen erfolgt das Trocknen durch einen Luftstrom von außen auf das Kleidungsstück. Der Luftstrom im Innern des Blähsa- ckes dient dann dort lediglich dem Spannen des Blähsackes und nicht zum Trocknen des Kleidungsstückes. Auch hier ist es wichtig, daß die Bereiche der Manschetten, des Kragens und evtl. des unteren Saumes, mit einem zusätzlichen Luftstrom aus der erfindungsgemäßen Luftumlenkung getrocknet werden.For the sake of completeness, it should be mentioned that the present invention can also be used for ironing by means of an ironing manikin, in which the inflatable bag is made air-impermeable. With these iron-on dolls, drying is carried out by an air stream from the outside onto the garment. The air flow inside the inflatable bag then only serves to tension the inflatable bag and not to dry the garment. It is also important here that the areas of the cuffs, the collar and possibly the lower hem are dried with an additional air stream from the air deflection according to the invention.
Nachfolgend soll nun die Erfindung anhand der Figuren erläutert werden. Es zeigen:The invention will now be explained with reference to the figures. Show it:
Figur 1: eine Bügelpuppe mit der erfindungsgemäßen Luftumlenkung im Bereich der Manschetten; Figur 2: einen vergrößerten Ausschnitt aus der Figur 1. Die Figur 1 zeigt in schematisch Weise eine Bügelpuppe 2. Die Bügelpuppe besteht im wesentlichen aus einem Sockel 4, dem darüber angeordneten Blähsack 3 und einem hier nicht dargestellten Erzeuger für eine Luftströmung 6. Der Lufterzeuger und die Heizung werden häufig in dem Sockel untergebracht. Zusätzlich kann auch noch eine Heizung vorhanden sein. Auf dem Blähsack 3 ist ein Kleidungsstück 1 angeordnet. Die Figur 1 zeigt die Bügelpuppe 2 im Betrieb, d.h. daß die Luftströmung 6 den Blähsack 3 - der hier luftdurchlässig gestaltet ist - und das Kleidungsstück 1 gleichzeitig durchbläst.Figure 1: a temple manikin with the air deflection according to the invention in the area of the cuffs; FIG. 2: an enlarged section from FIG. 1. FIG. 1 schematically shows an ironing manikin 2. The ironing manikin essentially consists of a base 4, the inflatable bag 3 arranged above it and a generator (not shown here) for an air flow 6. The air generator and the heater are often accommodated in the base. There may also be a heater. A garment 1 is arranged on the inflatable bag 3. Figure 1 shows the ironing manikin 2 in operation, that is, the air flow 6, the inflatable bag 3 - which is designed here to be permeable to air - and blowing through the garment 1 at the same time.
Wenn die Luftströmung 6 aktiv ist, so stülpen sich erfindungsgemäße Luftumlenkungen 5 aus den Ärmeln des Kleidungsstückes 1 heraus. Der Begriff der Luftumlenkung 5 ist im Rahmen dieser Schrift als Bauteil und nicht nur als Funktion zu verstehen. Da die Luftumlenkungen 5 auf der dem Kleidungsstück 1 zugewandten Seite luftdurchlässig sind, kann dort eine Luftströmung 6 austreten, die Manschetten 8 auf der Oberfläche des Kleidungsstückes 1 trocknen und glätten kann.When the air flow 6 is active, air deflections 5 according to the invention protrude from the sleeves of the garment 1. The term air deflection 5 is to be understood in the context of this document as a component and not only as a function. Since the air deflections 5 are permeable to air on the side facing the garment 1, an air flow 6 can escape there, which can dry and smooth sleeves 8 on the surface of the garment 1.
Im Rahmen der Erfindung können die Luftumlenkungen 5 auch im Bereich eines Kragens 10 oder im Bereich des unteren Saumes 7 angeordnet sein.In the context of the invention, the air deflections 5 can also be arranged in the region of a collar 10 or in the region of the lower seam 7.
Mit der Figur 2 wird in vergrößerter Form noch einmal eine Luftumlenkung 5 in Verbin- düng mit ihrer Anordnung am Ärmelende eines Kleidungsstückes 1 gezeigt. Die Luftströmung 6 im Innern des Blähsackes 3 durchstreift zunächst den Ärmel auf der Innenseite. Hierbei tritt - einen luftdurchlässigen Blähsack 3 vorausgesetzt - selbstverständlich auch gleich ein Teil der Luftströmung 6 direkt von Innern des Blähsackes 3 durch den Stoff des Kleidungsstückes 1 nach außen. Dieses gilt auch für die Manschette 8. Bei dem weiteren Fortschreiten der Luftströmung 6 aus dem Ärmel heraus, wird die Luftströmung 6 mittels der Luftumlenkung 5 in umgekehrter Richtung wieder über die Manschette hinweggeleitet. Dadurch wird die Manschette 8 auch von außen getrocknet und geglättet. FIG. 2 shows an air deflection 5 in connection with its arrangement on the sleeve end of a garment 1 in an enlarged form. The air flow 6 inside the inflatable bag 3 first roams the sleeve on the inside. Here - provided an air-permeable inflatable bag 3 - naturally also part of the air flow 6 directly from the inside of the inflatable bag 3 through the fabric of the garment 1 to the outside. This also applies to the cuff 8. As the air flow 6 continues to advance out of the sleeve, the air flow 6 is directed over the cuff again in the opposite direction by means of the air deflection 5. As a result, the cuff 8 is also dried and smoothed from the outside.
