In one embodiment, the present disclosure relates to a steam pressing appliance that includes a handle connected to a steam release nozzle. The steam release nozzle includes a heating body with an instant vaporization chamber and an electrical resistor regulated by a thermostat in order to keep the temperature of the vaporization chamber around a set-point temperature. The appliance also includes an electric pump to inject liquid into the vaporization chamber. The pump is controlled by a drive circuit that receives information from the thermostat on whether power is being supplied to the electrical resistor. The drive circuit modifies the operating conditions of the pump in accordance with whether or not current is supplied through the electrical resistor, operating in a first flow mode when current flows through the electrical resistor and operating in a second flow mode when no current flows through the electrical resistor.

A steam de-wrinkling appliance includes a de-wrinkling head connected by a line to a base for producing a steam flow. The de-wrinkling head has a rear portion forming a handle and a flared front portion having a surface with one or a plurality of steam exit holes for distributing the steam flow originating from the base. The de-wrinkling head further includes a device having a movable member capable of assuming a retracted position and a restriction position. The flared front portion encloses a single steam plenum chamber that supplies steam to the steam exit hole or holes.

This steamer head includes a body enclosing a steam distribution circuit and an air distribution circuit which are separated by a dividing partition, the steam distribution circuit including at least one steam inlet orifice intended to be connected to a steam generator and at least one steam outlet for diffusing a stream of steam, the air distribution circuit including a blower, an air inlet orifice and an air outlet for diffusing a stream of air, the at least one steam outlet and the air outlet being arranged at the one same end of the body of the steamer head. The steamer head includes a shut-off member that can be moved between a shut-off position in which the shut-off member closes off the air outlet and an open position in which the shut-off member uncovers the air outlet.

The present application relates to a hand-held steamer head for a fabric steamer. The hand-held steamer head has a body (2) with one or more steam vents (9) and a friction surface (23) for locating against a fabric to be steamed. The friction surface (23) is configured to act on the fabric to resist movement of the fabric relative to the body (2) as the body (2) is drawn over the fabric. The present invention also relates to a fabric steamer having a hand-held steamer head and a hand-held steamer head kit.

A handheld pressing and steaming appliance includes: an upper arm; a lower arm attached at one end to an end of the upper arm; a steam generation unit mounted on the upper arm; a water reservoir located in the upper arm and/or the lower arm; a water pump fluidly connected to the water reservoir and to the steam generation unit; a heating plate mounted near a free end of the upper arm and including a plurality of first exhaust holes that are in fluid communication with the steam generation unit; and a bearing plate mounted on the lower arm at a free end thereof, the bearing plate including a plurality of second exhaust holes. The appliance is movable between open and closed positions. In the closed the second exhaust holes are substantially aligned with the first exhaust holes, such that steam exhausted from the first exhaust holes also passes through the second exhaust holes.
