Clothing iron

1 . A clothing iron comprising:

a soleplate having an edge wall extending from a horizontal plate, the edge wall extending around the entire perimeter of the horizontal plate, the edge wall being curved and having a fillet radius, the fillet radius varying around the perimeter of the horizontal plate, the soleplate having a front section and a back section, wherein the edge wall comprises an apex at the front section, a left edge adjacent to said apex and extending to said back section, a right edge adjacent to said apex and extending to said back section and a back edge located at said back section adjacent to and located between said left edge and said right edge,

wherein each of said left edge and said right edge has an edge height of at least 6 mm adjacent the apex, and

wherein the left edge has a first fillet radius, the right edge has a second fillet radius and the back edge has a third fillet radius that are each more than 3 mm.

2 . The clothing iron of claim 1 , wherein the edge wall has an edge height of at least 6 mm.

3 . The clothing iron of claim 1 , wherein said apex forms a single seam at the intersection of said left edge and said right edge, and wherein the single seam extends from said soleplate toward the top of said edge wall.

4 . The clothing iron of claim 1 , wherein the left edge has a first fillet radius, the right edge has a second fillet radius and the back edge has a third fillet radius that are each more than 3 mm.

5 . The clothing iron of claim 4 , wherein the first fillet radius, the second fillet radius and the third fillet radius are between 3 mm to 10 mm.

6 . The clothing iron of claim 4 , wherein the first fillet radius, the second fillet radius and the third fillet radius are varying radii edges so that the first fillet radius, the second fillet radius and the third fillet radius are different.

7 . The clothing iron of claim 4 , wherein the first fillet radius varies along the left edge.

8 . The clothing iron of claim 4 , wherein the second fillet radius varies along the right edge.

9 . The clothing iron of claim 4 , wherein the third fillet radius varies along the back edge.

10 . The clothing iron of claim 4 , wherein the first fillet radius and the second fillet radius form a radii edge of greater radius ranges toward the front section of the soleplate relative to the back section of the soleplate.

11 . The clothing iron of claim 4 , wherein the edge wall has an edge height of 6 mm to 100 mm, and the edge height varies along each of the left edge, the right edge and the back edge.

12 . The clothing iron of claim 4 , wherein the edge wall forms a curve at a corner where the left edge and the right edge intersect.

13 . A clothing iron comprising:

a soleplate having an edge wall extending from a horizontal plate, the edge wall extending around the entire perimeter of the horizontal plate, the edge wall being curved and having a fillet radius, the fillet radius varying around the perimeter of the horizontal plate, the soleplate having a front section and a back section, wherein the edge wall at the front section has a fillet radius greater than a fillet radius at the back section, wherein said apex forms a tip edge that is angularly offset from each of said left edge and said right edge such that a left seam separating said tip edge from said left edge extends from said soleplate toward the top of said edge wall, and a right seam separating said tip edge from said right edge extends from said soleplate toward the top of said edge wall.

14 . A clothing iron comprising:

a soleplate having an edge wall extending from a horizontal plate, the edge wall extending around the entire perimeter of the horizontal plate, the edge wall being curved and having a fillet radius, the fillet radius varying around the perimeter of the horizontal plate, the soleplate having a front section and a back section, wherein the edge wall at the front section has a fillet radius greater than a fillet radius at the back section, wherein the edge wall comprises an apex at the front section, a left edge adjacent to said apex and extending to said back section, a right edge adjacent to said apex and extending to said back section and a back edge located at said back section adjacent to and located between said left edge and said right edge, wherein the left edge has a first fillet radius, the right edge has a second fillet radius and the back edge has a third fillet radius that are each more than 3 mm, wherein the edge wall forms an angle with horizontal plate that is greater than 90 degrees.

15 . A clothing iron comprising:

a soleplate being a sheet metal; and

a steam boiler assembly connected to the soleplate, the steam boiler assembly having an inlet, a boiler, and an outlet, and the boiler forming a steam path, wherein the boiler has a boiler side wall, a boiler lower wall and interior walls, wherein the boiler is connected to a cover to form the steam path, and wherein the steam path is two steam paths that are a continuous steam path and a burst steam path so that boiler assembly has two steam chambers, one for continuous steam and the other for burst steam.

16 . The clothing iron of claim 15 , wherein the steam boiler assembly is connected to the soleplate by brackets.

17 . The clothing iron of claim 15 , wherein the inlet comprises two inlets that are a continuous steam water inlet and a burst steam water inlet each through the cover and a continuous steam outlet and a boiler burst steam outlet through the boiler.

18 . The clothing iron of claim 17 , wherein the continuous steam path receives water from a fluid pump that operates to generate a flow of water from a water tank, through first tubing, through the fluid pump, through second tubing, through the continuous steam water inlet into the continuous steam path of the boiler assembly.

19 . The clothing iron of claim 17 , wherein the burst steam path receives water from a water tank so that the water flows from the water tank, through third tubing, through the burst steam water inlet and into the burst steam path of the boiler assembly.
