Accordingly, it is convenient to assemble the bracket to the second assembly hole through the hook.

[0013] Preferably, a retaining ring is placed on the rod, and the retaining ring is used to position the rod axially by relying on the lower end of the bracket. Accordingly, the rod is prevented from moving axially, and the actuating member and the ironing head are maintained in the assembly position accordingly.

[0014] Preferably, the handle is provided with a first through hole, the ironing head is provided with a second through hole, the first through hole corresponds to the second through hole and at least one of the two is an arc-shaped hole, and pipelines and / or power lines are passed through the first through hole and the second through hole. Accordingly, when the ironing head rotates, the arc-shaped hole provides a movable position for the pipeline and / or power line to prevent the pipeline and / or power line from being squeezed and damaged.

[0015] Preferably, the lower surface of the handle and the upper surface of the ironing head are attached together to shield the first through hole, the second through hole and the pipes and / or power lines passing therethrough, thereby preventing the first through hole and the second through hole from being exposed and affecting the internal structure, and preventing the pipes and / or power lines from being exposed and damaged.

[0016] Preferably, a damping structure is arranged between the rotating part and the handle, so as to apply damping to the ironing head when the ironing head is rotated, thereby increasing the rotation feel.

[0017] Preferably, the damping structure comprises a first damping sheet and a second damping sheet bonded together, and the first damping sheet and the second damping sheet are separately arranged on the handle and the rotating part.

[0053] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention clearer, the technical solution in the embodiment of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiment of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiment is a part of the embodiment of the present invention, not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0054] The terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof in the specification and claims of the present invention are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions. For example, a method or product comprising a series of technical features is not necessarily limited to those technical features clearly listed, but may also include other technical features that are not clearly listed and can be included in the method or product.

[0055] In the description of the present invention, it is necessary to understand that the technical features defined by the terms "first", "second" and the like with sequential concepts are only for the purpose of clearly describing the defined technical features so that the defined technical features can be clearly distinguished from other technical features, but do not represent such naming in actual implementation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation of the present invention.

[0056] The present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0057] Example 1

[0058] Figure 1-7 A handheld ironing device is shown, which can change the working posture, such as the ironing head can be Figure 1-2 The status shown is Figure 6-7 The states shown are changed to suit different ironing needs.

[0059] The handheld ironing device comprises a handle 100 for holding by hand and an ironing head 200 that rotates relative to the handle to change the working posture. The ironing head 200 and the handle 100 can be directly rotated and assembled, or can be rotated and assembled by means of structural members other than the two. For example, the rod described below can act as an axis to realize rotation. For ease of assembly, the ironing head 200 and the handle 100 are both assembled structures. The ironing head is assembled from a housing 210 and a steam generator 220. The handle 100 is composed of a first handle body 110, a second handle body 120, a bracket 130, a water tank 140, a water pump 150, and a control switch 160.

[0060] In this embodiment, the ironing head 200 is connected to the actuator 300, and the actuator 300 is spaced apart from the ironing head 200 to prevent the hand from touching the ironing head when the ironing head is rotated by operating the actuator by hand. Accordingly, when the ironing head is rotated during ironing, the ironing head is not held by hand, but the actuator is operated to rotate the ironing head by the actuator. Since the actuator is spaced apart from the ironing head, the hand is prevented from touching the ironing head and being burned. Compared with the prior art, the risk of burning the hand when the ironing head is rotated during ironing can be greatly reduced.

[0061] In the illustrated structure, the ironing head 200 and the actuator 300 are separated on opposite sides of the handle 100. Accordingly, the ironing head and the actuator are separated by the handle. When the actuator is operated to rotate the ironing head during ironing, the hands are ensured to be away from the ironing head to avoid being burned. In particular, since the ironing head and the actuator are separated on opposite sides of the handle, when the actuator is operated to rotate the ironing head during ironing, it is not necessary to move the ironing head away from the clothes being ironed. Instead, the ironing head can be kept basically in the ironing position and its posture can be changed by rotating the ironing head, thereby increasing the convenience of operation and improving the ironing efficiency. In addition, the ironing head 200 is connected to the actuator 300 via a rod 400 that runs through the handle 100, and the actuator 300 is a knob. Accordingly, the posture of the ironing head can be adjusted by rotating or turning the knob. The structure is compact and the transmission is simple. The ironing head is rotated by rotating the actuator, and the action is intuitive and easy to operate. The rod 400 is as shown in FIG. Figure 3-5 As shown, it passes through the handle 100, occupies less internal space of the handle, and does not affect the arrangement of other structures in the handle, such as pipelines and power lines.

[0062] In the illustrated structure, the ironing head 200 includes a steam generator 220, which is also called a boiler in other occasions. Therefore, it is necessary to transport water and supply electricity to the steam generator, which requires the arrangement of a water supply pipeline 500 and a power supply line for supplying electricity to the steam generator in the handle. In the illustrated structure, the water pump 150 for supplying water is arranged at the front end of the internal space of the handle 100, so it is also necessary to arrange a power supply line for the water pump. As for the water source, a water tank 140 can be arranged on the handle, or the water tank can be connected to an external water tank through a water pipe. In the ironing head equipped with a steam generator and a water pump, the water pump 140 transports water to the steam generator 220, and the steam generator 220 vaporizes the water into steam, and the steam is released from the steam hole for ironing.

[0063] In other structures, the ironing head can be used only to release steam, so only a steam pipe needs to be arranged in the inner cavity of the handle, and the steam can come from a host other than the handheld ironing device, such as the handheld ironing device as a component of a hanging iron.

[0064] Therefore, when the handheld ironing device has a water tank, a water pump, and a steam generator and can perform ironing, the handheld ironing device is embodied as an independent product that can perform the ironing function by itself, such as a steam brush. When the handheld ironing device lacks at least one of the water tank, the water pump, and the steam generator and cannot perform ironing independently, the handheld ironing device is embodied as a component of the ironing equipment, such as a component of a garment steamer.

[0065] In the illustrated structure, for ease of assembly, the handle 100 has a first handle body 110 and a second handle body 120 assembled together, the first handle body 110 is provided with a first assembly hole 111, and the second handle body 120 is provided with a second assembly hole 121. The first end of the rod 400 passes through the first assembly hole 111 and is fixed to the ironing head 200. The second end of the rod 400 is assembled with the actuator 300 at the second assembly hole 121. Accordingly, the ironing head can be assembled with the handle first, the rod is extended to the second assembly hole, and then the actuator is assembled to the rod from outside the second assembly hole. Alternatively, the actuator can be assembled with the handle first, the rod is extended to the first assembly hole, and then the ironing head can be assembled to the rod from outside the first assembly hole.

[0066] In addition, a bracket 130 is assembled to the second assembly hole 121. The bracket 130 has a center hole 131. The rod 400 is inserted into the center hole 131 and radially supported by the bracket 130. The upper end of the rod 400 passes through the center hole 131 from bottom to top and is assembled with the actuator 300. Accordingly, the radial bracket supports the rod like a bearing to prevent the rod and the actuator from shaking. In particular, when the ironing head is dragged back and forth on the clothes during ironing, the stability of the ironing head is maintained. The bracket 130 has a ring edge 132 and a hook 133. The ring edge 1312 is located at the upper end surface 1211 of the second assembly hole, and the hook 133 hooks the lower end surface 1212 of the second assembly hole. Accordingly, during assembly, the bracket 130 is placed in the second assembly hole 121, and the bracket is pressed into the second assembly hole. The hook is hooked to the lower end surface of the second assembly hole by elastic deformation of the hook, that is, the bracket is assembled to the second assembly hole.

[0067] A retaining ring 401 is put on the rod 400, and the retaining ring 401 is used for axial positioning of the rod by relying on the lower end of the bracket 130. Accordingly, the axial movement of the rod is avoided, and the actuating member and the ironing head are maintained in the assembly position accordingly.

[0068] In the illustrated structure, the first handle body 110 of the handle 100 is provided with a first ring edge 113 around the first assembly hole 111, and the outer shell 210 of the ironing head 200 is provided with a second ring edge 212. The first ring edge 113 and the second ring edge 212 are sleeved to guide the ironing head to rotate relative to the handle, thereby preventing the ironing head from shaking relative to the handle.

[0069] As described above, the ironing head 200 and the actuator 300 are separated on both sides of the handle 100 and connected by the rod 400 to form a rotating part that rotates relative to the handle. In addition, the rod 400 is directly radially supported by the bracket 130, and the rod 400 is also indirectly radially supported by the first ring edge 113 and the second ring edge 212 because it is fixedly assembled to the ironing head, so that it can rotate stably without shaking, so that the actuator and the ironing head are maintained in the assembled position. In other embodiments, the rod can be firstly assembled to the handle by a bearing-like structure, and then the actuator and the ironing head can be connected to the two ends of the rod respectively, and the actuator and the ironing head can also be directly assembled to the handle.

[0070] In the illustrated structure, a first through hole 112 is provided on the first handle body 110 of the handle 100, and a second through hole 211 is provided on the outer shell 210 of the ironing head 200. The first through hole corresponds to the second through hole and at least one of the two is an arc-shaped hole. The first through hole and the second through hole are provided with a pipeline 500 (water pipe or steam pipe) and a power supply line. Accordingly, when the ironing head rotates, the arc-shaped hole provides a movable position for the pipeline and the power supply line to prevent the pipeline and the power supply line from being squeezed and damaged. The lower surface of the handle and the upper surface of the ironing head are attached together to shield the first through hole, the second through hole and the pipeline and the power supply line provided therein. It is possible to avoid the first through hole and the second through hole from being exposed to affect the internal structure, and to avoid the pipeline and the power supply line from being exposed and damaged. In other embodiments, if the ironing head is not equipped with electrical components such as a steam generator, it is not necessary to provide a power supply line in the first through hole and the second through hole.

[0071] In this embodiment, a damping structure 600 is arranged between the rotating part and the handle 100, which is used to apply damping to the ironing head when the ironing head is rotated to increase the rotation feel. The damping structure 600 includes a first damping plate 610 and a second damping plate 620 that are attached together, and the first damping plate 610 and the second damping plate 620 are separately arranged on the handle and the rotating part. As shown in the figure, the first damping plate 610 is fastened to the first handle body 110 by a fastener, and the second damping plate 620 is fixed to the housing 210 of the ironing head by a fastener. Damping is achieved by friction between the first damping plate and the second damping plate attached together during rotation. When the first damping plate 610 and the second damping plate 620 are attached together, they have a small thickness, a small volume, and a compact structure. The first damping plate 610 and the second damping plate 620 maintain axial elastic contact to maintain damping, and this axial elastic contact is achieved by arranging a compressed and deformed elastic structure such as a leaf spring on the contact surface of the two. Accordingly, it is ensured that damping always exists. Furthermore, since the assembly gap easily causes the rotating part to shake relative to the handle, the axial elastic contact between the first damping plate and the second damping plate can eliminate such shaking.

[0072] In this embodiment, a limiting structure for limiting the rotation angle of the ironing head is arranged between the rotating part and the handle. It is used to limit the rotation range of the ironing head to prevent the unconstrained rotation of the ironing head from causing the pipes and power lines passing through the first through hole and the second through hole to be twisted and damaged. The limiting structure includes a limiting groove 710 and a boss 720 respectively provided in the ironing head 200 and the handle 100. Specifically, as shown in the figure, the limiting groove 710 is provided in the first handle body 110, and the boss 720 is provided in the outer shell 210 of the ironing head. The boss 720 is located in the limiting groove 710, and the limiting groove 710 limits the rotation angle of the boss 720 to limit the rotation angle of the ironing head. Accordingly, it can be ensured that the ironing head fits the handle and makes the structure compact. The limiting structure limits the ironing head to rotate back and forth within a range of 90 degrees. This is particularly suitable for the case where the ironing head is of an elongated structure as shown in the figure. By rotating the ironing head within 90 degrees, the length direction of the ironing head is consistent with the length direction of the handle or perpendicular to the length direction of the handle, which is suitable for different ironing needs.

[0073] Example 2

[0074] Figure 8-9 Another handheld ironing device is shown. Compared with the first embodiment, the handheld ironing device of the first embodiment abandons the damping structure 600 and the bracket 130 of the first embodiment and adds a positioning structure 800.

[0075] In this embodiment, a positioning structure 800 is arranged between the rotating part and the handle 100, and the ironing head is positioned in a desired posture through the positioning structure. In order to make the structure compact, the positioning structure includes a positioning groove 811 and a positioning protrusion 821 which are separately arranged on the rotating part and the handle. The positioning protrusion 821 is located in the positioning groove 811 to position the rotating part relative to the handle. Specifically, the rotating part and the handle are separately provided with a first positioning member 810 and a second positioning member 820 which can rotate relative to each other, and the positioning groove 811 and the positioning protrusion 821 are separately arranged on the rotating joint surface of the first positioning member 810 and the second positioning member 820. In the illustrated structure, the first positioning member 810 is arranged on the actuator and rotates with the actuator, and the positioning groove 811 is arranged on the first positioning member 810. The second positioning member 820 is fixed to the second assembly hole 121 of the second handle body 120 by a fastener, and the positioning protrusion 821 is arranged on the second positioning member 820. As the first positioning member and the second positioning member rotate relative to each other, the positioning protrusion is automatically positioned in the positioning groove or rotated out of the positioning groove by utilizing the elastic deformation of the materials of the first positioning member and the second positioning member. In this embodiment, the rod is radially supported by assembling the first positioning member, the second positioning member, the rod, the handle and the actuator to prevent the rod, the actuator and the ironing head from shaking.

[0076] In this embodiment, the first positioning member 810 and the second positioning member 820 are both annular, and the two are fitted together, and the rotational engagement surface of the two is their circumferential surface. In other embodiments, the first positioning member and the second positioning member can be axially fitted together like the first damping plate 610 and the second damping plate 620 in Embodiment 1, and the rotational engagement surface of the first positioning member and the second positioning member is their axial contact surface.

[0077] The remaining structures of the handheld ironing device of this embodiment are the same as those of the first embodiment, and are not described in detail. Therefore, the handheld ironing device can also change the working posture of the ironing head by rotating the actuating member as in the first embodiment, so as to avoid burning hands by touching the ironing head.

[0078] As described above, in Embodiment 1, a damping structure 600 is provided at the joint of the ironing head 200 and the handle 100, and in Embodiment 2, a positioning structure 800 is provided at the joint of the actuating member 300 and the handle 100. Therefore, in other embodiments, a damping structure may be provided at the joint of the ironing head and the handle, and a positioning structure may be provided at the joint of the actuating member and the handle, or the configuration positions of the damping structure and the positioning structure may be interchanged.
