Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2017085388A1] Steam ironing apparatus comprising a base (1) containing a device for producing a stream of steam connected by a pipe (2) to a smoothing accessory (3) comprising at least one hole for emitting steam, the said base (1) comprising a coat hanger (4) on which the garment that is to be smoothed can be hung while the smoothing accessory (3) is in use, the coat hanger (4) being mounted with the ability to pivot on the base about an axis by means of a pivot connection and being able to be prevented from rotating by means of a locking device, characterized in that the locking device comprises a control member (7; 107) that can be moved by the user by hand from an unlocked position that allows the coat hanger (4) to rotate freely, into a locked position in which the coat hanger (4) is prevented from rotating, and in that the movement of the control member (7, 107) from the unlocked position into the locked position causes the movement and/or deformation of a braking element (8; 108) from an initial position that allows free rotation of the pivot connection, towards a braked position in which the braking element (8; 108) is kept pressed against an element (6, 163) to prevent the coat hanger (4) from rotating.
