The ironing back plate 500 is installed on one side of the ironing space 110 opposite to the ironing mechanism and is used to support the clothes being ironed.

[0025] Through the above technical solution, when ironing clothes, first put the clothes to be ironed on the clothes hanger 600, and then convey the clothes into the ironing space 110 through the conveying mechanism 200; when the clothes move between the ironing mechanism and the ironing back plate 500, the clothes can lean against the ironing back plate 500, and at this time the conveying mechanism 200 pauses working; then drive the moving frame 300 to move towards the side close to the ironing back plate 500 through the driving member 120, so that the ironing mechanism contacts the clothes and performs ironing treatment on the clothes; after ironing, drive the moving frame 300 to move towards the side away from the ironing back plate 500 through the driving member 120 to reset the moving frame 300; then start the conveying mechanism 200 to send the ironed clothes out of the ironing space 110 and send the subsequent clothes to be ironed into the ironing space 110 for ironing operation. By setting like this, the automatic operation of clothes ironing can be realized, which can not only save manpower but also improve the clothing production efficiency.

[0026] It should be noted that the clothes ironed in this embodiment are mainly short-sleeved T-shirts.

[0027] In this embodiment, a number of guide posts 310 are fixed on the moving frame 300. The guide posts 310 extend along the thickness direction of the ironing space 110, and at least two guide posts 310 are provided. Guide holes adapted to the guide posts 310 are opened on the main body 100, and at least part of the structure of the guide posts 310 extends into the guide holes. Through the mutual cooperation of the guide posts 310 and the guide holes, the moving frame 300 can move along the thickness direction of the ironing space 110, which is convenient for moving the position of the ironing mechanism.

[0028] In a possible embodiment, the ironing mechanism includes two irons 410 and a first driving component. Among them, the iron 410 is designed as a long strip structure extending in the vertical direction, the length of the iron 410 is greater than the height of the garment, and the ironing surface of the iron 410 faces the ironing back plate 500. The two irons 410 are movably mounted on the moving frame 300 in the transverse direction. The first driving component is used to drive the two irons 410 to move towards / away from each other. It should be noted that the principle of the iron 410 is prior art and will not be elaborated here.

[0029] Through the above technical solution, when the ironing mechanism irons the garment, first make the ironing surface of the iron 410 contact the garment structure, and then drive the two irons 410 to move in opposite directions through the first driving component, so that the two irons 410 move from the middle position of the garment to both sides. In this way, not only can the garment be ironed, but also the garment can be pulled to both sides, so as to make the garment smoother.

[0030] In this embodiment, the moving frame 300 is provided with a first guiding groove 320, and a number of first guiding rods 321 extending transversely are installed in the first guiding groove 320. The number of the first guiding rods 321 is at least two. A first slider 411 is installed on the side of the iron 410 away from the ironing back plate 500, and the first slider 411 is movably sleeved on the first guiding rod 321 along the axial direction of the first guiding rod 321. Through the mutual cooperation of the first guiding rod 321 and the first slider 411, the iron 410 can be movably installed on the moving frame 300 in the transverse direction.

[0031] In this embodiment, the first driving component includes a first threaded rod 421 and a first motor. The first threaded rod 421 is rotatably installed in the first guiding groove 320. The first threaded rod 421 is arranged parallel to the first guiding rod 321 and has threads with opposite helix directions on both sides. The first sliders 411 of the two irons 410 are respectively threadedly connected to both sides of the first threaded rod 421. The first motor is installed on the moving frame 300, and the output shaft of the first motor is connected to one end of the first threaded rod 421 through a coupling for driving the first threaded rod 421 to rotate. By setting like this, when the first motor drives the first threaded rod 421 to rotate, the two irons 410 can be driven to move towards / away from each other through the two first sliders 411.

[0032] In a possible embodiment, the ironing back plate 500 is a vacuum suction plate. The adsorption surface of the ironing back plate 500 faces the side of the iron 410. The ironing back plate 500 is connected with a vacuum generating device, and the vacuum generating device provides a vacuum adsorption force for the ironing back plate 500. When the conveying mechanism 200 transports the garment hung on the hanger 600 to the middle position of the ironing back plate 500, the vacuum generating device is started, so that the ironing back plate 500 adsorbs the garment on the ironing back plate 500.

[0033] Through the above technical solution, when the garment moves to the ironing back plate 500, the ironing back plate 500 can adsorb the garment, so that the garment can be stably attached to the ironing back plate 500, thereby making the subsequent ironing mechanism more stable when ironing the garment and improving the ironing effect.

[0034] In a possible embodiment, although the garment is supported by the clothes hanger 600 and has a low wrinkle rate, there may still be some wrinkles, which may affect the subsequent ironing. Therefore, in this embodiment, the ironing device further includes a flattening mechanism for flattening the garment. The flattening mechanism includes two flattening rods 710 and a second driving assembly. Among them, the flattening rods 710 extend in the vertical direction, the length of the flattening rods 710 is greater than the height of the garment, and they are located between the iron 410 and the ironing back plate 500. The two flattening rods 710 are movably mounted on the moving frame 300 in the transverse direction. The second driving assembly is used to drive the two flattening rods 710 to move towards / away from each other.

[0035] Through the above technical solution, when ironing the garment, first put the garment to be ironed on the clothes hanger 600, and then convey the garment into the ironing space 110 through the conveying mechanism 200; when the garment moves to the middle position of the ironing back plate 500, the conveying mechanism 200 pauses working and starts the vacuum generating device, so that the ironing back plate 500 adsorbs the garment, thereby making the garment stably attached to the ironing back plate 500; then drive the moving frame 300 to move towards the side close to the ironing back plate 500 through the driving member 120, so that the flattening rods 710 contact the garment; then drive the two to move in opposite directions through the second driving assembly, so that the two flattening rods 710 move from the middle position of the garment to both sides, thereby flattening the garment that may have wrinkles. The flattened garment part can be directly and stably adsorbed by the ironing back plate 500; when the two flattening rods 710 move to a position where they do not contact the ironing back plate 500, drive the moving frame 300 to move towards the side close to the ironing back plate 500 through the driving member 120 again, so that the iron 410 contacts the garment; then drive the two irons 410 to move in opposite directions through the first driving assembly, so that the two irons 410 move from the middle position of the garment to both sides; after ironing, drive the moving frame 300, the iron 410 and the flattening rods 710 to reset in sequence through the driving member 120, the first driving assembly and the second driving assembly; then turn off the vacuum generating device and restart the conveying mechanism 200, send out the ironed garment from the ironing space 110, and send the subsequent garment to be ironed into the ironing space 110 for ironing operation. By setting like this, the efficiency and quality of garment ironing can be improved.

[0036] In this embodiment, the moving frame 300 is provided with a second guiding groove 330, and a number of laterally extending second guiding rods 331 are installed in the second guiding groove 330. The number of the second guiding rods 331 is at least two. On the side of the smoothing rod 710 away from the ironing back plate 500, a second slider 711 is installed. The second slider 711 is sleeved on the second guiding rod 331 so as to be axially movable along the second guiding rod 331. Through the mutual cooperation of the second guiding rod 331 and the second slider 711, the smoothing rod 710 can be movably installed on the moving frame 300 in the lateral direction.

[0037] In this embodiment, the second driving assembly includes a second threaded rod 721 and a second motor. The second threaded rod 721 is rotatably installed in the second guiding groove 330. The second threaded rod 721 is arranged parallel to the second guiding rod 331 and has threads with opposite helix directions on both sides. The second sliders 711 of the two smoothing rods 710 are respectively threadedly connected to both sides of the second threaded rod 721. The second motor is installed on the moving frame 300, and the output shaft of the second motor is connected to one end of the second threaded rod 721 through a coupling for driving the second threaded rod 721 to rotate. By such an arrangement, when the second motor drives the second threaded rod 721 to rotate, the two smoothing rods 710 can be driven by the two second sliders 711 to move towards / away from each other.

[0038] In a possible embodiment, the conveying mechanism 200 includes a frame 210, a conveyor belt 220, a number of conveyor wheels 230, a third motor, and a number of hanging rings 240.

The third motor is used to drive one of the conveyor wheels 230 to rotate, so as to drive the conveyor belt 220 to move. The number of hanging rings 240 is installed on the conveyor belt 220 at equal intervals along the length direction of the conveyor belt 220 for connecting the hooks of the clothes hangers 600.

[0039] In another embodiment, the conveying mechanism 200 can also adopt a chain drive or the like to realize the movement of the clothes hanger 600.

[0040] In a possible embodiment, the clothes hanger 600 has a thin sheet structure, and both ends of the clothes hanger 600 can extend to the sleeve positions of the clothing. First, designing the clothes hanger 600 as a thin sheet structure can minimize the influence of the clothes hanger 600 on the ironing of the clothing. And both ends of the clothes hanger 600 can extend to the sleeve positions of the clothing, so that the clothes hanger 600 can support the main body 100 part and the sleeve parts of the clothing, and can minimize the wrinkle rate of the clothes before ironing, thereby improving the quality of clothing ironing.

[0041] In a possible embodiment, a controller 130 is installed on the main body 100, and the driving member 120, the first motor, the second motor, and the vacuum generating device are all electrically connected to the controller 130.
