COOL-ZONE IRON

摘要

In an iron (1) comprising a housing (2), a soleplate (3) which is to be moved in a displacement direction over a fabric (4) during operation, and heating means (5) for heating the soleplate (3), the soleplate (3) comprises cooling means (6) for setting at least a portion of the fabric during operation, which means are provided, seen in the displacement direction, behind the heating means (5). After heating of the fibers in the fabric, the cooling means comprised in the soleplate subsequently cool the fibers in the fabric which are under tensile and compression forces because the soleplate is still in contact with the fabric. This causes the fibers to become set quickly and effectively, which improves the result of the ironing.
