STEAM-SMOOTHING APPARATUS HAVING TWO INDEPENDENT STEAM DISTRIBUTION CIRCUITS

The invention relates to a smoothing apparatus (2), comprising a base (3) for resting stably on a horizontal support and a steamer head (4) which is supported by the base (3), the steamer head (4) comprising a treatment surface (5), on which a garment to be smoothed is intended to be arranged while the smoothing apparatus (2) rests on the base (3), the treatment surface (5) comprising at least one steam emission area (7.1, 7.2). According to the invention, the smoothing apparatus has a first steam distribution circuit (11) and a second steam distribution circuit (12) that is separate from the first steam distribution circuit (11), wherein the at least one steam emission area has at least one first steam outlet hole (8.1), which is fluidically connected to the first steam distribution circuit (11), and at least one second steam outlet hole (8.2) which is fluidically connected to the second steam distribution circuit (12). The smoothing apparatus (2) is configured in such a way that a smoothing of a garment to be smoothed is performed by manually applying the garment to be smoothed to the treatment surface (5) and by causing the garment to be smoothed to slide on said treatment surface (5).
