Abstract
The electric and steam iron according to this invention is
provided with a knob for operating the thermostat, which ex
tends substantially vertically between the iron body and the
handle handgrip, partially or fully inserted in the handle and
operatively connected to the thermostat directly or through
gearing means. The knob is preferably made of a transparent
material and is provided with at least a temperature indicating
element visible substantially from the outer surfaces of the
handle. This temperature indicating element is lightened direct
ly through the knob, or indirectly by a lamp acting as a warning
lamp indicating that the iron is operative and located either in
the inside of the knob or in the handle handgrip at the indicating
element. In the former case this indicating element is located
directly above the handle or on its one side wall, whereas in
the latter case it is located on a slider in the handgrip and moved
by the knob, said slider supporting the lamp so that this lamp
will lighten and make well visible from the top the temperature
indicating element.
