[0027] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0028] like Figure 1-3 The ironing machine shown comprises a body 200 and a chemical vapor boiler 100, a water tank 300 and a water pump 400 mounted on the body. In particular, a retractable handle 202 is arranged on the body 200. The handle can be extended out of the body or stored in the body according to the use requirements. When the handle 202 is extended, the ironing machine can be held for ironing, so that it is convenient to use and occupies a small volume when stored. When working, the water pump 400 transports the water stored in the water tank 300 to the chemical vapor chamber of the chemical vapor boiler 100. After the water is heated in the chemical vapor chamber and converted into steam, it is discharged from the steam outlet 105 for ironing.

[0029] In order to position the handle and prevent it from losing its working position, the handle is positioned by the positioning structure. Figure 1-2 The storage status shown and Figure 3 The extended state shown. Specifically, the positioning structure includes a telescopic pin 203 provided on the body 200 and a first positioning hole 204 and a second positioning hole 205 provided on the handle 202. When the telescopic pin 203 is inserted into the first positioning hole 204, the handle is positioned in the storage state. When the telescopic pin 203 is inserted into the second positioning hole 205, the handle is positioned in the extended state. In addition, a spring 206 acts on the telescopic pin 203 to urge the telescopic pin 203 to be inserted into the first positioning hole 204 and the second positioning hole 205. The telescopic pin 203 is provided with a toggle portion 207 exposed on the surface of the body. The toggle portion can be toggled by hand to overcome the elastic force of the spring 206 to make the telescopic pin disengage from the first positioning hole or the second positioning hole. After the telescopic pin is disengaged from the first positioning hole or the second positioning hole, the handle can be telescoped to change the position of the handle.

[0030] In order to make the structure compact, a water tank 300 is provided inside the handle 202. The water tank is a cavity for containing water. The volume of the handle is utilized to simplify the structure, and the water tank is integrated with the handle.

[0031] In order to smoothly and flexibly change the state of the handle, a cylindrical grip portion 201 is provided on the upper part of the body, and a handle 202 is arranged inside the grip portion 201. The handle can be guided by the inner wall of the cylindrical grip portion or by a guide structure arranged between the handle and the grip portion. Moreover, the handle is arranged inside the grip portion, which also reduces the volume.

[0032] like Figure 5 The shown chemical vapor boiler 100 includes a furnace body 101 and an electric heating element for heating the furnace body. The furnace body 101 has a chemical vapor cavity 102. The furnace body 101 is provided with a water inlet for conveying water to the chemical vapor cavity. The furnace body surface is provided with a first ironing surface 103 and a second ironing surface 104 intersecting with each other. The angle β between the first ironing surface 103 and the second ironing surface 104 is 90º≤β<180º, preferably 135º. The first ironing surface 103 and the second ironing surface 104 in the figure are directly formed on the furnace body, which can be obtained by casting. In specific implementation, the first ironing surface and the second ironing surface can also be assembled on the furnace body as independent parts. The intersection of the first ironing surface and the second ironing surface is provided with a steam outlet 105 connected to the chemical vapor cavity. The electric heating element is an electric heating pipe 107 buried in the furnace body, and the electric heating pipe 107 is bent along the first ironing surface and the second ironing surface. Depending on the configuration of the first ironing surface, the second ironing surface and the steam outlet, the chemical steam boiler has both hanging ironing and flat ironing functions.

[0033] In the steam boiler, water enters the steam chamber through the water inlet, is heated in the steam chamber and converted into steam, and then is discharged from the steam outlet.

[0034] In the figure, the first ironing surface 103 and the second ironing surface 104 are both planes. In specific implementation, they can also be curved surfaces. Moreover, the intersection of the first ironing surface and the second ironing surface is connected via a transition surface 106, and the steam outlet 105 is provided on the transition surface 106. The transition surface 106 in the figure is a plane, and in specific implementation, it can also be a curved surface. In order to make the ironing surface that contacts the clothes smooth, flat and durable, the first ironing surface can be equipped with a first ironing panel, and the second ironing surface can be equipped with a second ironing panel. When the furnace body is made of aluminum alloy die-casting, the first ironing panel and the second ironing panel can be stainless steel.

[0035] The first ironing surface 103 and the second ironing surface 104 shown in the figure are located at the bottom of the ironing machine. The gripping portion 201 is located at the top of the ironing machine. Therefore, the ironing can be performed by gripping the gripping portion.

[0036] like Figure 2 As shown, the steam outlet 105 is located at the front end of the first ironing surface 103. The entire ironing machine can be placed on the flat clothes 500 by means of the first ironing surface 103 to perform flat ironing, and the entire ironing machine can also be placed by means of the first ironing surface. Figure 2When the state shown is rotated 45 degrees counterclockwise, the second ironing surface 104 can be brought into contact with the flat clothes 500 for ironing. The first ironing surface and the second ironing surface can be configured to different temperatures, thereby achieving different ironing requirements, which can be conveniently selected by the user.

[0037] When you turn the iron from Figure 2 When the state shown is rotated 45° clockwise, the entire product reaches Figure 3 In the state shown, the second ironing surface 104 is in a vertical position, so the hanging clothes can be ironed.
