The utility model relates to the field of steam boxes, and provides a steam box which comprises a base body, a water tank, a box cover, a magnetic attraction body, a permanent
magnet and an electromagnetic
assembly, a containing cavity is limited in the base body, the water tank is arranged in the containing cavity, the box cover is movably arranged on the base body and corresponds to the water tank in position, one of the magnetic attraction body and the permanent
magnet is fixed to the box cover, and the other one of the magnetic attraction body and the permanent
magnet is fixed to the electromagnetic
assembly. The permanent magnet is used for attracting the magnetic attraction body to close the box cover, and the electromagnetic
assembly is used for being powered on to generate a
magnetic field to enable the permanent magnet to release the magnetic attraction body. The magnetic attraction body can be attracted by the permanent magnet to keep the box cover closed,
power consumption is avoided, and energy is saved. And the permanent magnet can release the magnetic attraction body only by instantly electrifying the electromagnetic assembly, so that the
energy consumption is low. The box cover is automatically unlocked by electrifying the electromagnetic assembly, so that the box cover can be opened, operation of children can be prevented, the risk that the children open the box cover to make contact with the water tank is reduced, and the safety of the steam box is improved.
