Abstract:
A steam ironing apparatus includes a base containing a device for producing steam connected by a pipe to a smoothing accessory including a hole for emitting steam. The base includes a coat hanger for hanging a garment and mounted to pivot on the base about an axis by a pivot connection. The hanger is prevented from rotating by a locking device. The locking device includes a control member movable by the user from an unlocked position that allows the hanger to rotate freely, into a locked position in which the hanger is prevented from rotating. The movement of the control member from the unlocked to the locked position causes the movement and/or deformation of a braking element from an initial position that allows free rotation of the pivot connection, towards a braked position in which the braking element is kept pressed against an element to prevent the hanger from rotating.

Claim (Index 1):
A steam ironing apparatus comprising a base containing a device for producing a stream of steam connected by a pipe to a smoothing accessory comprising at least one hole for emitting steam, the base comprising a coat hanger on which a garment to be smoothed can be hung while the smoothing accessory is in use, the coat hanger being mounted with the ability to pivot on the base around an axis using a pivot connection and being able to be prevented from rotating by a locking device, wherein the locking device comprises a control member that is movable by the user by hand from an unlocked position that allows the coat hanger to rotate freely, into a locked position in which the coat hanger is prevented from rotating, and wherein a movement of the control member from the unlocked position into the locked position causes the movement and/or deformation of a braking element from an initial position that allows the pivot connection to rotate freely, towards a braked position in which the braking element is kept pressed against an element to prevent the coat hanger from rotating.
