Abstract (en)

The iron of the invention is provided with a housing established at its front for the illumination lamp, the housing being arranged slightly inclined forwards and downwards. In addition to said lamp, two heat dissipating plates are adapted to the sides in order to prevent the lamp from overheating, said plates extending backwards considerably and further adapting snugly to the wall of the water tank in order for the water mass initially designed to generate steam to act as a cooler. Another characteristic of the invention provides the inclusion of a heat limiter in the circuit supplying the lamp, to switch it off in the event of an excessive temperature. A push-button type switch located on the rear of the iron is established for the lamp, and therefore when the lamp is placed in such position of rest, the illumination lamp will be automatically switched off. <IMAGE>
