Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zum Glätten und/oder Trocknen eines Kleidungsstücks, insbesondere eines Kleidungsstückes für den Oberkörper, wie beispielsweise eines Hemdes, einer Bluse oder Jacke.The present invention relates to a device for smoothing and / or drying a garment, in particular a garment for the upper body, such as a shirt, a blouse or jacket.

Die DE 100 63 671 A1 zeigt eine Hemdenglättvorrichtung mit einem Unterteil und einem darauf befestigten äußeren Blähkörper. In dem äußeren Blähkörper ist ein Tragegestell vorgesehen und zwischen dem Tragegestell und dem Blähkörper sind flexibel aufblasbare Stützkörper vorgesehen. Zudem kann an dem Tragegestell ein Stütznetz vorgesehen sein, gegen das sich die Stützkörper abstützen.The DE 100 63 671 A1 shows a shirt-smoothing device with a lower part and an outer inflatable body attached thereto. In the outer inflatable body a support frame is provided and between the support frame and the inflatable flexible inflatable support body are provided. In addition, a supporting net can be provided on the support frame against which the supporting bodies are supported.

Beim Bügeln oder Trocknen mit einer solchen Vorrichtung, die aus äußerem und inneren Blähkörpern besteht, kommt es mitunter zu Abdrücken des Tragegestells bzw. Stützgestänges, an dem zu glättenden Kleidungsstück. Zudem ist in der Regel an der vorderen Seite der Vorrichtung eine Klemmvorrichtung für die Knopfleiste des zu glättenden Kleidungsstückes vorgesehen. Zwischen dem Stützgestänge und der Knopfleistenhalterung ist nur ein sehr kleiner Abstand vorhanden. Werden Hemden auf diese Vorrichtung aufgezogen, so verschieben sich der äußere und der innere Blähkörper nach mehrmaligem Aufziehen von Hemden gegeneinander, wobei sich die Position des inneren Blähkörpers durch die immer gleiche Bewegung nach hinten verlagert. Durch das Verschieben kann der innere Blähkörper in eine so ungünstige Position gelangen, dass er nach vorne hin nicht mehr aufgeblasen wird und sich so das Stützgestänge, das unter dem äußeren Blähkörper liegt, auf dem Hemd abzeichnet.When ironing or drying with such a device, which consists of outer and inner inflatable bodies, it sometimes comes to impressions of the support frame or support linkage, on the garment to be smoothed. In addition, a clamping device for the button strip of the garment to be smoothed is usually provided on the front side of the device. There is only a very small gap between the support rod and the button bar mount. If shirts are mounted on this device, then move the outer and the inner inflatable body after repeated mounting of shirts against each other, with the position of the inner inflatable body displaced by the same movement to the rear. By moving the inner inflatable body can get into such an unfavorable position that it is no longer inflated towards the front and so the support rod, which is below the outer inflatable body, on the shirt signs.

Da es nicht möglich ist das Stützgestänge nach hinten zu verlegen, ohne die gesamte Vorrichtung umzubauen, ist es Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung eine Vorrichtung zu schaffen, mit der Kleidungsstücke zuverlässig geglättet und getrocknet werden können. In der Vorrichtung sollen weiterhin zumindest Teile von herkömmlichen Vorrichtungen, insbesondere das Stützgestell und die Knopfleistenhalterung in unveränderter Form verwendet werden können.Since it is not possible to relocate the support rod to the rear, without rebuilding the entire device, it is an object of the present invention to provide a device with which garments can be reliably smoothed and dried. In the device, at least parts of conventional devices, in particular the support frame and the button strip holder should continue to be used in unchanged form.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch eine Vorrichtung mit den Merkmalen des Schutzanspruchs 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und Weiterbildungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen.This object is achieved by a device having the features of patent claim 1. Advantageous embodiments and modifications of the invention will become apparent from the dependent claims.

Die Vorrichtung zum Glätten und/oder Trocknen von Kleidungsstücken, insbesondere von Hemden, ist versehen mit einem aufblasbaren, äußeren Blähkörper mit einem Rumpfbereich, einem in dem äußeren Blähkörper angeordneten Stützgestell und einem aufblasbaren, inneren Blähkörper, der sich zumindest über den Rumpfbereich des äußeren Blähkörpers erstreckt und in diesem Bereich aus zwei Hälften besteht, die auf gegenüberliegenden Seiten eines Stützgestells angeordnet sind und sich zumindest teilweise mit deren Innenseite an dem Stützgestell abstützen. Die Vorrichtung zeichnet sich erfindungsgemäß dadurch aus, dass an dem inneren Blähkörper eine Spanneinrichtung vorgesehen ist, um die beiden Hälften des inneren Blähkörpers bezüglich des Stützgestells zu verspannen, wobei die Spanneinrichtung zwei längliche Verbindungsmittel umfasst, wobei ein erstes Verbindungsmittel an der ersten Hälfte des inneren Blähkörpers und ein zweites Verbindungsmittel an der zweiten Hälfte des inneren Blähkörpers jeweils im vorderen Bereich der Innenseite der Hälfte befestigt ist.The device for smoothing and / or drying garments, in particular shirts, is provided with an inflatable outer inflatable body having a body region, a support frame arranged in the outer inflatable body and an inflatable inner inflatable body extending at least over the body region of the outer inflatable body extends and in this area consists of two halves, which are arranged on opposite sides of a support frame and at least partially supported with the inside of the support frame. The device according to the invention is characterized in that on the inner inflatable body, a tensioning device is provided to brace the two halves of the inner inflatable body with respect to the support frame, wherein the clamping device comprises two elongate connecting means, wherein a first connecting means on the first half of the inner inflatable body and a second connecting means is attached to the second half of the inner inflatable body in each case in the front region of the inside of the half.

Das Stützgestell wird vorzugsweise durch ein Gestänge mit vier Stangen gebildet, die die Ecken eines Rechtecks markieren und sich in dem äußeren Blähkörper senkrecht nach oben erstrecken. Als Innenseite der Hälften des inneren Blähkörpers wird die Seite bezeichnet, die dem Stützgestell zugewandt ist.The support frame is preferably formed by a rod with four rods that mark the corners of a rectangle and extend vertically upwards in the outer inflatable body. As the inside of the halves of the inner inflatable body, the side is referred to, which faces the support frame.

Die Verbindungsmittel sind erfindungsgemäß an dem vorderen Bereich der Innenseite der Hälften des inneren Blähkörpers, vorzugsweise an der vorderen Kante, vorgesehen. Durch die Befestigung an der Vorderseite kann ein Verspannen der Hälften nach vorne erfolgen und so dem Verschieben des inneren Blähkörpers nach hinten entgegengewirkt werden. Um den inneren Blähkörper möglichst weit nach vorne zu ziehen wird vorzugsweise die linke Hälfte des inneren Blähkörpers an der rechten vorderen Stützgestängestange befestigt und umgekehrt. Durch diese Spanneinrichtung wird es möglich den inneren Blähkörper optimal in seiner Position zu halten und dadurch das Glättergebnis zu verbessern.According to the invention, the connecting means are provided on the front region of the inside of the halves of the inner inflatable body, preferably on the front edge. By attaching to the front of a bracing of the halves can be done forward and so counteracted the displacement of the inner inflatable body to the rear. In order to pull the inner inflatable body as far forward as possible, the left half of the inner inflatable body is preferably attached to the right front support rod and vice versa. By this clamping device, it is possible to optimally hold the inner inflatable body in position, thereby improving the smoothing result.

Das Verbindungsmittel weist vorzugsweise an dessen freien Ende ein erstes Befestigungsmittel zum lösbaren Befestigen an einem weiteren Befestigungsmittel auf. Da das Verbindungsmittel eine längliche Form aufweist, wird es möglich den inneren Blähkörper flexibel in Abhängigkeit des Aufbaus des Stützgestells an geeigneten Positionen zu befestigen. Da das Befestigungsmittel, das an dem freien Ende vorgesehen ist, zur lösbaren Verbindung dient, wird die Befestigung des inneren Blähkörper an dem Stützgestell und der Austausch des inneren Blähkörpers erleichtert.The connecting means preferably has at its free end a first fastening means for releasable attachment to a further fastening means. Since the connecting means has an elongated shape, it becomes possible to flexibly fix the inner inflatable body at appropriate positions depending on the structure of the supporting frame. Since the fastening means provided at the free end serves to releasably connect, the attachment of the inner inflatable body to the support frame and the replacement of the inner inflatable body is facilitated.

Gemäß einer Ausführungsform kann das weitere Befestigungsmittel an dem gleichen Verbindungsmittel, an dem auch das erste Befestigungsmittel vorgesehen ist, in einem Abstand zu dem ersten Befestigungsmittel angebracht sein. Hierdurch kann an dem Verbindungsmittel eine Schlaufe gebildet werden, die um einen Teil der Vorrichtung, insbesondere eine Stange des Stützgestells, gelegt und verschlossen werden kann.According to one embodiment, the further attachment means may be attached to the same connection means on which the first attachment means is provided, at a distance from the first attachment means. In this way, a loop can be formed on the connecting means, which can be placed and closed around a part of the device, in particular a rod of the support frame.

Es ist aber auch möglich das weitere Befestigungsmittel an einem anderen Verbindungsmittel anzubringen. In diesem Fall können die beiden Verbindungsmittel, die jeweils an einem Ende mit einer der Hälften des inneren Blähkörpers verbunden sind, an deren freien Enden miteinander verbunden werden und darüber eine Verbindung zwischen den Hälften des inneren Blähkörpers erzeugen, durch die dieser gegen das Stützgestell verspannt wird.But it is also possible to attach the further fastening means to another connecting means. In this case, the two connecting means, which are each connected at one end to one of the halves of the inner inflatable body, are joined together at their free ends and above create a connection between the halves of the inner inflatable body, by which this against the Support frame is clamped.

Besonders bevorzugt weisen die Hälften des inneren Blähkörpers jeweils eine Schulterpartie auf und die Verbindungsmittel sind im Bereich der Schulterpartie an der Innenseite der Hälften angebracht. Da die Schulterpartie in der Regel gegenüber dem unteren Bereich der Hälfte geneigt ist, kann durch die Anbringung der Verbindungsmittel an der Innenseite der Schulterpartie eine Diagonalverspannung bzw. Querverspannung erzeugt und dadurch der Halt des inneren Blähkörpers an dem Stützgestell noch verbessert werden.Particularly preferably, the halves of the inner inflatable body each have a shoulder portion and the connecting means are mounted in the region of the shoulder portion on the inside of the halves. Since the shoulder part is generally inclined with respect to the lower region of the half, the attachment of the connecting means to the inner side of the shoulder section produces a diagonal tension or transverse tension, thereby further improving the grip of the inner inflatable body on the support frame.

Verbindungsmittel können aber alternativ oder zusätzlich auch im mittleren Bereich der Höhe bzw. Länge der Hälften des inneren Blähkörpers angebracht sein. In dieser Position kann dem inneren Blähkörper eine zusätzliche Stabilität verliehen werden. Insbesondere, wenn in dieser Position an den beiden Hälften jeweils Verbindungsmittel vorgesehen sind, die jeweils mit einem Verbindungsmittel, das an der anderen Hälfte angebracht ist, verbunden werden, kann ein Verspannen der beiden Blähkörper gegeneinander und damit gegen das Stützgestell erzeugt werden.But connecting means may alternatively or additionally also be mounted in the central region of the height or length of the halves of the inner inflatable body. In this position, the inner inflatable body can be given additional stability. In particular, if connecting means are provided in each case in this position at the two halves, which are each connected to a connecting means which is attached to the other half, a bracing of the two inflatable bodies against each other and thus against the support frame can be created.

Die Spanneinrichtung kann zusätzlich eine Brücke umfassen, die an der ersten und der zweiten Hälfte im mittleren Bereich der Höhe im hinteren Bereich der Innenseite der zwei Hälften angebracht ist. Durch diese Brücke kann eine Gegenspannung zu der durch die Verbindungsmittel im vorderen Bereich des inneren Blähkörpers erzeugten Spannung hergestellt werden. Zudem kann durch diese Brücke zusammen mit Verbindungsmitteln, die in der Mitte der Höhe im vorderen Bereich vorgesehen sind, ein sich um das Stützgestell erstreckendes durchgehendes Band erzeugt werden, wodurch ein seitliches Hineindrücken bzw. Hineinrutschen der Hälften des inneren Blähkörpers in das Stützgestell vermieden wird. Die Brücke kann aus Fertigungsgründen aus zwei Stoffbändern bestehen, die aneinander genäht sind, wobei jedes der Stoffbänder eine Länge aufweist, die der Hälfte der Gesamtlänge der Brücke entspricht.The tensioning device may additionally comprise a bridge which is attached to the first and the second half in the central region of the height in the rear region of the inside of the two halves. By this bridge, a counter-voltage can be made to the voltage generated by the connecting means in the front region of the inner inflatable body. In addition, by this bridge together with connecting means, which are provided in the middle of the height in the front region, a extending around the support frame continuous band can be generated, whereby a lateral pushing in or slipping of the halves of the inner inflatable body is avoided in the support frame. For manufacturing reasons, the bridge can consist of two fabric bands which are sewn together, each of the fabric bands having a length which corresponds to half the total length of the bridge.

Das erste Befestigungsmittel stellt vorzugsweise ein Druckknopfoberteil, insbesondere eine Kappe mit Federteil, und das zweite Befestigungsmittel ein Druckknopfunterteil, insbesondere einen Niet und ein Kugelteil, dar. Durch Zusammenführen dieser Befestigungsmittel kann eine Druckknopfverbindung zwischen zwei Verbindungsmitteln oder zwischen Bereichen eines einzigen Verbindungsmittels erzielt werden.The first attachment means preferably constitutes a pushbutton upper part, in particular a cap with a spring part, and the second attachment means a pushbutton lower part, in particular a rivet and a ball part. By joining these attachment means, a push-button connection between two connection means or between areas of a single connection means can be achieved.

Die Verbindungsmittel können Bänder oder Gurte aus Stoff sein. Die Verbindungsmittel, die an dem oberen vorderen Bereich der Innenseite der Hälften des inneren Blähkörpers angebracht sind, können beispielsweise eine Länge von 37cm aufweisen. Hierbei sind 1cm als Nahtzugabe für das Ende, an dem das Verbindungsmittel an dem inneren Blähkörper befestigt ist, vorgesehen. An die Naht schließt sich in einem Abstand von 19cm ein erstes Befestigungsmittel und in einem weiteren Abstand von 11cm ein weiteres Befestigungsmittel an. Die verbleibenden 6cm werden zum Umklappen und damit zur Verstärkung des Endes des Verbindungsmittels verwendet. Der vordere Bauchgurt kann beispielsweise eine Länge von insgesamt 36cm aufweisen, wobei dieser aus zwei Bändern von jeweils 18cm gebildet ist. Auch hierbei ist 1cm Nahtzugabe an der Nahtseite des Bandes gegeben und 6cm dienen als Verstärkung des freien Endes. Somit ist das Befestigungsmittel in 11 cm von der Befestigungsnaht entfernt.The connecting means may be tapes or straps made of cloth. The connecting means, which are attached to the upper front region of the inside of the halves of the inner inflatable body, for example, may have a length of 37cm. Here, 1 cm are provided as a seam allowance for the end to which the connecting means is attached to the inner inflatable body. At the seam closes at a distance of 19cm a first fastener and in another Distance of 11cm another fastener. The remaining 6cm are used to fold over and thus reinforce the end of the lanyard. The front waist belt, for example, have a total length of 36cm, which is made up of two bands of 18cm each. Here too 1cm seam allowance is given at the seam side of the band and 6cm serve as reinforcement of the free end. Thus, the fastener is located at 11 cm from the attachment seam.
