AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing portable ironing equipment, when used in a horizontal position, suffers from insufficient steam flow due to the inability of the water in the reservoir to flow by gravity, which affects ironing performance.

Method used

A portable ironing device is designed, including a water reservoir and an instantaneous evaporation chamber. The water reservoir contains a water supply chamber and a connecting passage. When the device is vertical, the water supply chamber is filled with water, and when it is horizontal, the water supply chamber traps water, preventing water from flowing into the remaining part of the water reservoir and ensuring optimized steam flow.

Benefits of technology

It provides optimized steam flow when used in any location, prevents water from flowing into the remaining part of the water tank, reduces equipment costs, and eliminates the need for a pump structure.

Abstract

A portable ironing device includes a handle and a steam exhaust head connected to its upper end, including a front end portion. The front end portion includes a processing surface equipped with at least one steam exhaust hole, which faces the clothes to be ironed vertically when the device is held in a vertical ironing position and the handle is below the steam exhaust head. The device includes an instantaneous evaporation chamber and a water reservoir. The water reservoir supplies water to the instantaneous evaporation chamber when the device is in the vertical ironing position and includes a bottom. The bottom includes an outlet for water supplied by a water supply chamber of a limited volume disposed inside the water reservoir. The water supply chamber communicates with the rest of the water reservoir via a connecting passage that allows at least a portion of the water present in the water reservoir to be captured in the water supply chamber when the device is in the vertical ironing position. When the device is in a horizontal ironing position, the connecting passage does not allow the water captured in the water supply chamber to flow into the rest of the water reservoir. In the horizontal ironing position, the processing surface is disposed in a horizontal plane and oriented downward.
