Household electrical steam generator with stabilized boiler water level, particularly for smoothing irons

摘要

In this household electrical steam generator, particularly for smoothing irons, the water level within the boiler is stabilized by electronic and/or pneumatic action, electronic action being actuated by a temperature sensor positioned on that portion of the body of a usual armoured resistance element which is subject to emergence following reduction in the water level, to activate a make-up micro-pump transferring into the boiler cold water drawn from a reservoir, pneumatic action being actuated by a floating valve enabling air to enter during boiler cooling, in order not to enable the boiler to draw water from the reservoir through the body of the halted micro-pump.
