Abstract: The present invention concerns an insulating glass pane comprising a first and a second pane of glass, the first and second panes are arranged in mutually plane-parallel spaced relationship by means of spacers, an insulating space is formed between the first and second panes and gas-tightly sealed off, a plurality of mutually spaced light strips each having a plurality of mutually spaced light emitting elements are arranged in the insulating space and each of the light strips includes a torsionally stiff carrier passing through the insulating space parallel to the first and second panes.

Abstract: A steam iron with external steam supply, has a handle, a switch for actuating a steam valve on a steam accumulator, a power supply for an electrical resistance heater, a steam tube, an iron base with a temperature-selection switch, a soleplate with a steam-supply connector, and a steam duct with at least one steam-outlet nozzle. The steam iron does not leak water during operation. To prevent spitting, the steam iron includes a steam dryer with a separate external or integrated housing.
