Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of household appliances, and in particular to a hanging ironing machine. Background Art

[0002] With the improvement of living standards, hanging irons as a household appliance for ironing clothes have become more and more popular. Hanging irons usually include a shell, a water tank, a steam generator and other components. The water tank supplies water to the steam generator, and the steam generator can heat the water into high-temperature steam through its internal heating unit to achieve the ironing function.

[0003] In the prior art, garment steamers generally include two types: wireless garment steamers and wired garment steamers. The wireless garment steamer has a built-in rechargeable battery, and the user can hold the wireless garment steamer to iron clothes. When the battery is exhausted, the wireless garment steamer can be plugged into a charging stand to charge; the wired garment steamer is usually connected to a power socket via an electric wire, and the user can hold the wired garment steamer and drag the electric wire to iron clothes.

[0004] However, existing wireless garment steamers are limited by battery life and cannot be used for a long time, while wired garment steamers are affected by the length of the wires and can only be used near a power socket, so their scope of use is limited and their convenience is poor. Summary of the invention

[0005] The embodiment of the present invention provides a garment steamer that can switch between a wireless state and a wired state, is not limited by battery life, and has good convenience.

[0006] The present application provides a garment steamer, which includes a base, a connector and an ironing body. The ironing body is detachably connected to the connector, and the base includes a locking assembly.

[0007] Among them, the hanging iron also includes a rotating rod and a locking piece, the locking piece is used to lock at least two of the base, the connector and the ironing body, the rotating rod has a cam portion, and the locking piece abuts against the cam portion. When the cam portion rotates circumferentially around the axis of the rotating rod, the locking piece can be pushed by the cam portion and switched arbitrarily between at least three different travel positions. When the locking piece is in different travel positions, at least two of the connector, the base and the ironing body are in a state of being locked by the locking piece.

[0008] The steam iron provided by this application can be switched between a wired state, a wireless state, and a fixed state through an operation locking component. When the ironing body is unlocked from the connector and the connector is locked to the base, the connector is left on the base and the ironing body is taken out separately, thus realizing the working mode of the steam iron in the wireless state; when the ironing body is locked to the connector and the connector is unlocked from the base, the ironing body can be taken off the base together with the connector, thus realizing the working mode of the steam iron in the wired state; and when the user does not use the steam iron, the ironing body, the connector, and the base can all be locked, which is convenient for storage and placement. In this way, the steam iron in this application can be selected according to the actual usage scenario, is not limited by the battery life, and can also have good convenience. In addition, the user only needs to rotate the rotating rod to switch between any usage states of the steam iron, which is convenient and labor-saving.

[0009] As an optional implementation manner, the first end of the locking member faces the connector, the second end of the locking member abuts against the cam surface of the cam portion, and the cam surface of the cam portion has different distances from the rotation axis of the rotating rod at different positions in the circumferential direction, so that the rotation of the cam portion can be converted into the movement of the locking member.

[0010] As an optional implementation manner, at least one first protrusion is provided at the first end of the locking member, at least one first card slot is provided on the side wall of the connector, the first protrusion corresponds to the first card slot, and is inserted into the first card slot when the locking member moves. In this way, the connector can be locked to the base to prevent the connector from falling out of the accommodation groove of the base and being lost.

[0011] As an optional implementation manner, a second protrusion is further provided at the first end of the locking member, and a clamping component is provided inside the connector, and the clamping component is used to lock the connector and the ironing body.

[0012] Wherein, the second protrusion faces the clamping component, and when the locking member moves, the second protrusion abuts against and pushes the clamping component to unlock the connector and the ironing body. In this way, the locking or unlocking between the ironing body, the connector, and the base is realized by switching different rotation gears of the same locking component, and the operation is more convenient. At the same time, when the steam iron is in the wired state, the clamping component can ensure the reliability of the connection between the connector and the ironing body.

[0013] As an optional implementation manner, the cam surface is a closed surface, and the contour curve of the cam surface may include a first contour segment, a second contour segment, and a third contour segment connected in sequence. The first contour segment, the second contour segment, and the third contour segment are respectively distributed in different directions in the circumferential direction of the cam surface, and the rotating rod can rotate freely around the axis. In this way, by controlling the rotation of the rotating rod, the locking member can be made to abut against different positions in the circumferential direction of the cam surface, thus realizing the control of the stroke position of the locking member by the rotation of the rotating rod.

[0014] When the user switches the usage state of the steam iron, the rotating rod can be rotated in different ways. According to the operating effect of the rotating rod, the second end of the locking member can slide arbitrarily among the first contour segment, the second contour segment, and the third contour segment, so that the locking member can be switched arbitrarily among three stroke positions, thereby enabling the steam iron to be switched arbitrarily among the wired state, the wireless state, and the intermediate state.

[0015] According to the operating mode of the rotating rod, the rotating rod can reciprocally rotate around the axis, and the second end of the locking member slides between any two of the first contour segment, the second contour segment, and the third contour segment, so that the locking member can be switched between any two stroke positions. In this way, the steam iron can be switched between any two usage states.

[0016] Alternatively, the rotating rod can rotate unidirectionally in a cycle around the axis, and the second end of the locking member slides cyclically along the first contour segment, the second contour segment, and the third contour segment, so that the locking member can be cyclically switched among three stroke positions. In this way, the steam iron can be cyclically switched among three usage states.

[0017] As an alternative implementation, the second end of the locking member can abut against the first contour segment, the first protrusion disengages from the first card slot, and the second protrusion separates from the latching assembly, so as to unlock the connector from the base and lock the connector to the ironing body, so that the ironing body can take out the connector together from the accommodation slot, and the steam iron is in the wired state.

[0018] As an alternative implementation, when the second end of the locking member abuts against the second contour segment, the first protrusion is latched with the first card slot, and the second protrusion separates from the latching assembly, so as to lock both the connector to the base and the connector to the ironing body, thereby fixing both the ironing body and the connector in the accommodation slot of the base, and the steam iron is in the fixed state.

[0019] As an alternative implementation, when the second end of the locking member abuts against the third contour segment, the first protrusion is latched with the first card slot, and the second protrusion abuts against the latching assembly, so as to lock the connector to the base and unlock the connector from the ironing body, so that the ironing body can be taken out alone from the accommodation slot, and the steam iron is in the wireless state.

[0020] As an alternative implementation, when the second end of the locking member abuts against the first contour segment, the second contour segment, and the third contour segment respectively, the distance between the second end of the locking member and the rotation axis of the rotating rod increases in sequence, so that the change of the stroke position can be realized when the locking member slides along the cam surface, enabling the user to control the stroke position of the locking member by rotating the rotating rod and change the usage state of the steam iron.

[0021] As an alternative embodiment, at least one first sliding groove is provided on the locking member, the first protruding portion is slidably disposed in the first sliding groove, a first elastic member is disposed in the first sliding groove, one end of the first elastic member abuts against the end of the first protruding portion away from the first card slot, and the other end of the first elastic member abuts against the end of the first sliding groove. Thus, after the first protruding portion is inserted into the first card slot and abuts against its slot bottom, the first protruding portion can slide along the first sliding groove and compress the first elastic member, so that the locking member can have a displacement amount moving towards the connector direction, so that the second protruding portion can be inserted into the connector and abut against the latching assembly, so as to realize the unlocking of the ironing body and the connector.

[0022] As an alternative embodiment, there are two first protruding portions, first card slots and first sliding grooves, and the second protruding portion is disposed between the two first protruding portions. Thus, when the locking member abuts against the connector, it has better reliability and stability.

[0023] As an alternative embodiment, the connector includes a housing, a chassis and a mounting seat. The housing covers the chassis to form a first accommodating cavity. The mounting seat is disposed in the first accommodating cavity, and the latching assembly is mounted on the mounting seat, so that the latching assembly can be mounted in the first accommodating cavity.

[0024] As an alternative embodiment, the latching assembly includes a latching member and a push rod. The latching member is disposed on the surface of the mounting seat on the side away from the chassis. A through hole is provided on the mounting seat. One end of the push rod passes through the through hole and abuts against the latching member. The other end of the push rod faces the second protruding portion, so that the push rod can move along the axial direction of the through hole under the push of the second protruding portion, thereby pushing the latching member to slide along the surface of the mounting seat to realize the latching of the latching member to the ironing body.

[0025] As an alternative embodiment, a notch is provided on the housing, and the notch is disposed opposite to the end of the push rod away from the latching member, so that the second protruding portion passes through the notch and abuts against the push rod, thereby realizing the unlocking of the ironing body and the connector.

[0026] As an alternative embodiment, the latching member has at least one latching portion, and at least one opening is provided on the housing. The latching portion passes through the opening and latches with the ironing body. Thus, when the locking member does not abut against the latching assembly, the latching portion can lock the connector and the ironing body.

[0027] As an alternative embodiment, the latching assembly may further include a second elastic member. One end of the second elastic member abuts against the end of the latching member away from the opening, and the other end of the second elastic member abuts against the mounting seat. The second elastic member applies an elastic force towards the opening to the latching portion, so that the latching portion extends out of the opening, thereby locking the connector and the ironing body, avoiding the disengagement of the latching portion from the ironing body, and improving the connection reliability between the ironing body and the connector.

[0028] As an alternative embodiment, the ironing body includes an ironing part and a handle. The ironing part is connected to one end of the handle, and the other end of the handle abuts against the top of the connector. In this way, the connector can be fixed at the end of the ironing body, facilitating the user to hold the handle and providing a good user experience when the hanging ironing machine is in a wired state.

[0029] As an alternative embodiment, the handle has a second receiving cavity. At least part of the structure of the connector is inserted into the second receiving cavity from the end of the handle. At least one second card slot is provided on the inner wall of the receiving cavity. The clamping part can pass through the opening and be clamped with the second card slot, thereby preventing the end of the connector from disengaging from the second receiving cavity.

[0030] As an alternative embodiment, the locking assembly further includes a support base and a third elastic member. The support base is fixedly connected to the base. The support base has a second sliding groove, and the locking member is slidably disposed in the second sliding groove, thereby defining the moving direction of the locking member and preventing misalignment when the locking member abuts against the connector.

[0031] The first end of the third elastic member can abut against the first end of the locking member, and the second end of the third elastic member abuts against the end of the second sliding groove to apply an elastic force towards the cam portion to the locking member. In this way, when the cam portion rotates, the second end of the locking member can always abut against the cam surface, ensuring that either unidirectional continuous rotation or reciprocating rotation of the cam portion can achieve locking or unlocking of any two of the ironing body, the connector, and the base.

[0032] The present application provides a hanging ironing machine, which includes a base, a connector, and an ironing body. The ironing body is detachably connected to the connector. The hanging ironing machine further includes a locking assembly. The locking assembly includes a rotating rod and a locking member. The locking member is used to lock at least two of the base, the connector, and the ironing body. The rotating rod has a cam portion, and the cam portion abuts against the locking member. When the cam portion rotates circumferentially around the axis of the rotating rod, the locking member can be pushed by the cam portion to arbitrarily switch between at least three different stroke positions. In different stroke positions of the locking member, at least two of the connector, the base, and the ironing body are in a state locked by the locking member, thereby enabling the hanging ironing machine to switch between a wired state, a wireless state, and a fixed state. The user can select according to the actual usage scenario, without being limited by the battery life and with good convenience.

[0056] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present application.

[0057] First of all, those skilled in the art should understand that these implementation manners are only used to explain the technical principle of the present application and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present application. Those skilled in the art can make adjustments according to needs to adapt to specific application scenarios.

[0058] Secondly, it should be noted that in the description of this application, the terms indicating directions or positional relationships such as "inner" and "outer" are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the drawings. This is only for the convenience of description and does not indicate or imply that the device or component must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, it should not be construed as a limitation to this application.

[0059] In addition, it should also be noted that in the description of this application, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "connected" and "coupled" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be the communication inside two components. For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0060] In the description of this specification, the description referring to terms such as "one embodiment", "some embodiments", "illustrative embodiments", "examples", "specific examples", or "some examples" means that the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described in connection with the embodiment or example are included in at least one embodiment or example of the present disclosure. In this specification, the schematic expressions of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Moreover, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described can be combined in a suitable manner in any one or more embodiments or examples.

[0061] As a household appliance that can iron clothes, the clothes hanging iron has become more and more popular. In the prior art, clothes hanging irons generally include two forms: wireless clothes hanging irons and wired clothes hanging irons. Among them, the wireless clothes hanging iron is built-in with a rechargeable battery. Users can hold the wireless clothes hanging iron to iron clothes. When the battery runs out, the wireless clothes hanging iron can be plugged into the charging base for charging; the wired clothes hanging iron is usually connected to a power socket through a wire. Users can hold the wired clothes hanging iron and drag the wire to iron clothes.

[0062] However, the existing wireless clothes hanging iron is limited by the battery life and cannot be used for a long time. The wired clothes hanging iron is affected by the wire length and can only be used near the power socket, so its usage range is limited and the convenience is poor. In addition, the wireless clothes hanging iron needs to be placed on the charging base for charging. Although users can drag the charging base and use the clothes hanging iron and the charging base as a whole, the weight and volume of the charging base are relatively large, so it is very laborious to use and the user experience is poor.

[0063] This application provides a clothes hanging iron that can switch between a wireless state, a wired state, and an intermediate state, which can not only be unrestricted by the battery life but also have good convenience, improving the user experience.

[0064] Figure 1Schematic structural diagram of the clothes hanger iron provided by the embodiment of the present application Figure 2 Exploded view of the clothes hanger iron provided by the embodiment of the present application Figure 3 Exploded view of the base in the clothes hanger iron provided by the embodiment of the present application Figure 4 Exploded view of the connector in the clothes hanger iron provided by the embodiment of the present application. As Figures 1 to 4 shown, the clothes hanger iron provided by this embodiment includes a base 10, a connector 20, and an ironing body 30. The ironing body 30 is detachably connected to the connector 20

[0065] Specifically, the clothes hanger iron further includes a locking assembly 12. The locking assembly 12 may include a rotating rod 121 and a locking member 122. The locking member 122 is used to lock at least two of the base 10, the connector 20, and the ironing body 30. The rotating rod 121 has a cam portion 1211. The cam portion 1211 abuts against the locking member 122. When the cam portion 1211 rotates circumferentially around the axis of the rotating rod 121, the locking member 122 can be pushed by the cam portion 1211 to arbitrarily switch between at least three different stroke positions. In different stroke positions of the locking member 122, at least two of the connector 20, the base 10, and the ironing body 30 are in a state locked by the locking member 122

[0066] The clothes hanger iron provided by this embodiment includes three usage states. By operating the locking assembly 12, it is possible to switch between three usage states: wired state, wireless state, and intermediate state (the intermediate state can be either a fixed state in which the base 10, the connector 20, and the ironing body 30 are all relatively locked, or a dispersed state in which all three are unlocked. Hereinafter, the fixed state will be used as an example for description). When the ironing body 30 is unlocked from the connector 20 and the connector 20 is locked to the base 10, the connector 20 is left in the accommodation groove 101, and the ironing body 30 is taken out separately, thus realizing the working mode of the wireless state of the clothes hanger iron, making the use of the clothes hanger iron not restricted by location and greatly improving convenience; when the ironing body 30 is locked to the connector 20 and the connector 20 is unlocked from the base 10, the ironing body 30 can be taken out of the accommodation groove 101 together with the connector 20, thus realizing the working mode of the wired state of the clothes hanger iron, so that the use of the clothes hanger iron is not affected by the battery life. At the same time, since the base 10 in this embodiment is a battery-free base and the connector 20 is a charged connector, the connector 20 itself has a small volume and weight. The clothes hanger iron in the wired state only needs to carry the connector 20 without carrying the relatively heavy base 10, and is also very light and convenient; when the user does not use the clothes hanger iron, the ironing body 30, the connector 20, and the base 10 can all be locked, which is convenient for storage and placement, making it difficult for the connector 20 and the ironing body 30 to be lost. It can be seen that the clothes hanger iron provided by this embodiment can be selected according to the actual usage scenario, is not restricted by the battery life, and can also have good convenience

[0067] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the switching of the usage state of the steam iron by the locking component 12 is achieved by rotating the rotating rod 121. The user only needs to rotate the rotating rod 121 to switch between any usage states of the steam iron, which is convenient and labor-saving. Rotating the rotating rod 121 to different angles corresponds to different stroke positions of the locking member 122, and different stroke positions of the locking member 122 correspond to different usage states of the steam iron. Below, the specific structure of the locking member 122 and the method of achieving locking and unlocking will be described in detail.

[0068] In some embodiments, the locking component 12 can be arranged on the base 10. The base 10 further includes a housing 11. The housing 11 has a receiving groove 101. The connector 20 is located in the receiving groove 101. The locking component 12 is installed outside the receiving groove 101. The first end of the locking member 122 faces the connector. The second end of the locking member 122 abuts against the cam surface of the cam portion 1211. The cam surface of the cam portion 1211 has different distances from the rotation axis of the rotating rod 121 at different positions in the circumferential direction. Thus, the rotation of the cam portion 1211 can be converted into the movement of the locking member 122.

[0069] As an optional implementation manner, at least one first protrusion 1221 can be arranged at the first end of the locking member 122. At least one first card slot 221 can be arranged on the side wall of the connector 20. The first protrusion 1221 corresponds to the first card slot 221. Thus, when the locking member 122 moves, the first protrusion 1221 can be inserted into the first card slot 221.

[0070] Specifically, since the connector 20 is located in the receiving groove 101 and the locking member 122 is located outside the receiving groove 101, corresponding through holes can be opened on the groove wall of the receiving groove 101. When the locking member 122 moves, the first protrusion 1221 can first pass through the groove wall of the receiving groove 101 through the through hole and then be inserted into the first card slot 221.

[0071] Optionally, the cross-sectional dimension of the first protrusion 1221 can be smaller than the notch dimension of the first card slot 221. Thus, when the locking member 122 moves, it can be ensured that the first protrusion 1221 can be inserted into the first card slot 221, so that the connector 20 can be locked to the base 10 and the connector 20 can be prevented from being disengaged from the receiving groove 101 of the base 10.

[0072] As an alternative embodiment, a second protruding portion 1222 may be provided at the first end of the locking member 122. The second protruding portion 1222 extends in the same direction as the first protruding portion 1221. A clamping component 21 may be provided inside the connector 20. The clamping component 21 is used to lock the connector 20 and the ironing body 30. When the hanging iron is in a wired state, the clamping component 21 can ensure the reliability of the connection between the connector 20 and the ironing body 30.

[0073] Specifically, the second protruding portion 1222 is disposed opposite to the clamping component 21. When the second protruding portion 1222 does not abut against the clamping component 21, the clamping component 21 will lock the connector 20 and the ironing body 30. When the locking member 122 moves and the second protruding portion 1222 abuts against the clamping component 21, the second protruding portion 1222 can abut against and push the clamping component 21, thereby unlocking the connector 20 from the ironing body 30.

[0074] Optionally, a through hole is also provided at a position on the groove wall of the accommodating groove 101 opposite to the second protruding portion 1222, so that the second protruding portion 1222 located outside the accommodating groove 101 can be inserted into the accommodating groove 101 through the through hole and abut against the clamping component 21 inside the connector 20.

[0075] Optionally, the housing 11 of the base 10 includes a bottom case 111 and an upper cover 112. The accommodating groove 101 is provided on the upper cover 112 and recesses from the surface of the upper cover 112 towards the bottom case 111. The locking member 122 is provided inside the bottom case 111 and is opposite to the side wall of the accommodating groove 101 when the upper cover 112 is covered on the bottom case 111. A through hole is provided on the upper cover 112, and the rotating rod 121 passes through the through hole and extends into the bottom case 111 to abut against the locking member 122. The top end of the rotating rod 121 is exposed outside the upper cover 112, so that it can be rotated by the user during use.

[0076] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the locking or unlocking between the ironing body 30, the connector 20, and the base 10 is achieved by switching different rotation gears of the same locking component 12, that is, the first protruding portion 1221 and the second protruding portion 1222 respectively achieve the locking and unlocking of the base 10 and the connector 20 and the connector 20 and the ironing body 30, thereby making the operation more convenient.

[0077] Since the relative positional relationship between the first protruding portion 1221 and the second protruding portion 1222 at the first end of the locking member 122 and the connector 20 determines the usage state of the clothes hanger iron, the position where the cam surface abuts against the second end of the locking member 122 determines the stroke position of the locking member 122. Therefore, different gears of the rotation of the rotating rod 121 driving the cam portion 1211 correspond to different usage states of the clothes hanger iron. Therefore, the design of the contour curve of the cam surface is very important for the realization of the locking and unlocking functions of the locking member 122. The following will detail the specific setting method of the cam surface and its corresponding relationship with the locking member 122.

[0078] Figure 5 It is a side view of the clothes hanger iron provided by the embodiment of the present application. Figure 6 is Figure 5 a cross-sectional view of the clothes hanger iron in the A-A direction in the wired state in Figure 7 is Figure 6 an enlarged view of position C in Figure 8 is Figure 5 a cross-sectional view of the clothes hanger iron in the A-A direction in the fixed state in Figure 9 is Figure 5 a cross-sectional view of the clothes hanger iron in the A-A direction in the wireless state in Figure 10 is Figure 5 a cross-sectional view of the clothes hanger iron in the B-B direction in the wired state in Figure 11 is Figure 5 a cross-sectional view of the clothes hanger iron in the B-B direction in the fixed state in Figure 12 is Figure 5 a cross-sectional view of the clothes hanger iron in the B-B direction in the wireless state in Figure 13 It is a schematic diagram of the locking member 122 in the clothes hanger iron provided by the embodiment of the present application abutting against different contour segments of the cam portion 1211. As Figures 5 to 13 shown, as an optional implementation manner, the cam surface is a closed surface. The contour curve of the cam surface may include a first contour segment 1212a, a second contour segment 1212b, and a third contour segment 1212c connected in sequence. The first contour segment 1212a, the second contour segment 1212b, and the third contour segment 1212c are respectively distributed in different directions in the circumferential direction of the cam surface. The rotating rod 121 can rotate freely around the axis. Therefore, by controlling the rotation of the rotating rod 121, the locking member 122 can abut against different positions in the circumferential direction of the cam surface, thereby realizing the control of the stroke position of the locking member 122 by the rotation of the rotating rod 121.

[0079] Specifically, when the second end of the locking member 122 abuts against the first contour segment 1212a, the second contour segment 1212b, and the third contour segment 1212c, they respectively correspond to three usage states of the clothes hanger iron. The following will describe these three states.

[0080] When the second end of the locking member 122 abuts against the first contour segment 1212a, the first protrusion 1221 disengages from the first card slot 221, and the second protrusion 1222 separates from the latching assembly 21, so that the connector 20 is unlocked from the base 10 and the connector 20 is locked to the ironing body 30, enabling the ironing body 30 to carry the connector 20 and be taken out of the accommodation slot 101 together, and the clothes hanger iron is in the wired state.

[0081] When the second end of the locking member 122 abuts against the second contour segment 1212b, the first protrusion 1221 is latched with the first card slot 221, and the second protrusion 1222 separates from the latching assembly 21, so that the connector 20 is locked to both the base 10 and the ironing body 30, thereby fixing both the ironing body 30 and the connector 20 in the accommodation slot 101 of the base 10, and the clothes hanger iron is in the fixed state.

[0082] When the second end of the locking member 122 abuts against the third contour segment 1212c, the first protrusion 1221 is latched with the first card slot 221, and the second protrusion 1222 abuts against the latching assembly 21, so that the connector 20 is locked to the base 10 and the connector 20 is unlocked from the ironing body 30, enabling the ironing body 30 to be taken out of the accommodation slot 101 alone, and the clothes hanger iron is in the wireless state.

[0083] It should be noted that when the user switches the usage state of the clothes hanger iron, the rotating rod 121 can be rotated in different ways. Figure 14 This is a schematic structural diagram of the rotating rod 121 in the clothes hanger iron provided by the embodiment of the present application. As Figure 14 shown, according to the effect achieved by operating the rotating rod 121, the second end of the locking member 122 slides arbitrarily between the first contour segment 1212a, the second contour segment 1212b, and the third contour segment 1212c, so that the locking member 122 can be arbitrarily switched between three stroke positions, thereby enabling the clothes hanger iron to be arbitrarily switched between three modes: the wired state, the wireless state, and the intermediate state.

[0084] As one of the rotation methods, the rotating rod 121 can rotate reciprocally around the axis, and the second end of the locking member 122 slides between any two of the first contour segment 1212a, the second contour segment 1212b, and the third contour segment 1212c, so that the locking member 122 can be switched between any two stroke positions, and thus the clothes hanger iron can be switched between any two usage states.

[0085] As another rotation mode, the rotating rod 121 can rotate unidirectionally in a cycle around the axis, and the second end of the locking member 122 slides cyclically along the first contour section 1212a, the second contour section 1212b, and the third contour section 1212c, so that the locking member 122 can cyclically switch between three stroke positions, and thus the clothes hanger iron can cyclically switch between three usage states.

[0086] As an alternative embodiment, the distances of different positions in the circumferential direction of the cam surface from the rotation axis are different, and the distances of the first contour section 1212a, the second contour section 1212b, and the third contour section 1212c from the rotation axis increase in sequence. Correspondingly, when the second end of the locking member 122 abuts against the first contour section 1212a, the second contour section 1212b, and the third contour section 1212c respectively, the distances of the second end of the locking member 122 from the rotation axis of the rotating rod 121 increase in sequence. Thus, when the locking member 122 slides along the cam surface, the change of the stroke position can be realized, so that the user can control the stroke position of the locking member 122 by rotating the rotating rod 121, and change the usage state of the clothes hanger iron.

[0087] Specifically, when the rotating rod 121 is rotated to make the second end of the locking member 122 slide from the first contour section 1212a to the second contour section 1212b or the third contour section 1212c, the locking member 122 moves in the direction close to the connector 20; when the rotating rod 121 is rotated to make the second end of the locking member 122 slide from the second contour section 1212b to the first contour section 1212a, the locking member 122 moves in the direction away from the connector 20, and when it slides from the second contour section 1212b to the third contour section 1212c, the locking member 122 moves in the direction close to the connector 20; when the rotating rod 121 is rotated to make the locking member 122 slide from the third contour section 1212c to the first contour section 1212a or the second contour section 1212b, the locking member 122 moves in the direction away from the connector 20.

[0088] It should be noted that since the contour curve of the cam surface is a continuously changing closed surface, in order to enable the user to determine the angle of the rotating rod 121 corresponding to different usage states of the clothes hanger iron when rotating the rotating rod 121 by hand, on the one hand, a plurality of indication marks can be arranged on the base 10, and the plurality of indication marks are distributed circumferentially around the rotating rod 121 to identify different rotation gears. On the other hand, a plurality of positioning grooves distributed circumferentially around the rotating rod 121 can be arranged on the base 10, and the plurality of positioning grooves correspond to different circumferential positions of the rotating rod 121, so as to correspond to different usage states of the clothes hanger iron. When the rotating rod 121 is rotated, a part of the structure of the rod body of the rotating rod 121 can be clamped into one of the positioning grooves, and the rotating rod 121 can be rotated to another positioning groove by applying torsion to the rotating rod 121, so that the user has a certain feel when switching between the three gears, and the user experience when the user switches the usage state of the clothes hanger iron is improved.

[0089] Figure 15 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the locking member in the garment steamer provided in the embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 15 As shown, as an optional embodiment, at least one first slide groove 1223 can be provided on the locking member 122, the first protrusion 1221 can be slidably provided in the first slide groove 1223, a first elastic member 1224 is provided in the first slide groove 1223, one end of the first elastic member 1224 abuts against one end of the first protrusion 1221 away from the first slot 221, and the other end of the first elastic member 1224 abuts against the end of the first slide groove 1223.

[0090] Specifically, after the first protrusion 1221 is inserted into the first card slot 221 and abuts against the bottom of the first card slot, the first protrusion 1221 can slide along the first slide groove 1223 and compress the first elastic member 1224, that is, when the first protrusion 1221 is inserted into the first card slot 221, the second end of the locking member 122 abuts against the second contour segment 1212b. At this time, rotating the rotary rod 121 to make the second end of the locking member 122 slide to the third contour segment 1212c requires the locking member 122 to continue to move toward the connector 20. Therefore, the second elastic member 213 can provide displacement for the locking member 122 to continue to move toward the connector 20 when the first protrusion 1221 abuts against the bottom of the first card slot 221, so that the second protrusion 1222 can be inserted into the connector 20 and abut against the snap-on assembly 21, so as to unlock the ironing body 30 and the connector 20, and the hanging iron can be switched to a wireless state.

[0091] Optionally, there can be two first protrusions 1221, two first card slots 221 and two first slide slots 1223, which are arranged in one-to-one correspondence, and the second protrusion 1222 can be arranged between the two first protrusions 1221, so as to have better reliability and stability when the locking member 122 abuts against the connector 20.

[0092] Optionally, the first elastic member 1224 may be a spring, and this embodiment does not specifically limit the magnitude of the elastic force provided by the spring.

[0093] As an optional embodiment, the connector 20 may include a shell 22, a chassis 23 and a mounting seat 24. The shell 22 may be covered on the chassis 23 to form a first accommodating cavity. The first card slot 221 is arranged on the side wall of the shell 22. The mounting seat 24 may be arranged in the first accommodating cavity. The snap-on assembly 21 is installed on the mounting seat 24, so that the snap-on assembly 21 can be installed in the first accommodating cavity.

[0094] Specifically, when the snap-fit ​​assembly 21 is in a natural state, that is, when the locking piece 122 is not in contact with it, the snap-fit ​​assembly 21 can lock the ironing body 30 and the connector 20. The specific structure of the snap-fit ​​assembly 21 and its snap-fitting method will be described below.

[0095] Figure 16 This is a schematic diagram of the installation structure of the clamping assembly in the garment steamer provided in the embodiment of the present application. Figure 17 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the clamping member in the garment steamer provided in the embodiment of the present application, as shown in FIG. Figure 16 and Figure 17 As shown, as an optional embodiment, the clamping assembly 21 includes a clamping member 211 and a push rod 212. The clamping member 211 is arranged on the surface of the mounting seat 24 away from the chassis 23. The mounting seat 24 is provided with a through hole 241. One end of the push rod 212 passes through the through hole 241 and abuts against the clamping member 211. The other end of the push rod 212 is opposite to the second protrusion 1222, so that the push rod 212 can move axially along the through hole 241 under the push of the second protrusion 1222, thereby pushing the clamping member 211 to slide along the surface of the mounting seat 24, thereby realizing the clamping of the clamping member 211 to the ironing body 30.

[0096] Specifically, both the upper and lower ends of the push rod 212 have inclined surfaces, and the end of the second protrusion 1222 also has an inclined surface. The inclined surface of the end of the second protrusion 1222 abuts against the inclined surface of the lower end of the push rod 212, so that when the two abut, the horizontal movement of the second protrusion 1222 is converted into the up and down movement of the push rod 212. At the same time, the end of the clamping member 211 also has an inclined surface, and the inclined surface of the end of the clamping member 211 abuts against the inclined surface of the upper end of the push rod 212, so that the up and down movement of the push rod 212 is converted into the horizontal movement of the clamping member 211. In this way, the movement of the clamping member 211 can be controlled by the movement of the locking member 122, so that the locking and unlocking of the ironing body 30 and the connector 20 are controlled by the locking member 122.

[0097] Optionally, a notch 222 may be provided on the housing 22 , and the notch 222 is arranged opposite to an end of the push rod 212 away from the clamping member 211 , so that the second protrusion 1222 passes through the notch 222 and abuts against the push rod 212 , thereby unlocking the ironing body 30 and the connector 20 .

[0098] Optionally, at least one clamping portion 2111 may be provided at one end of the clamping member 211 facing the ironing body 30, and at least one opening 223 may be provided on the outer shell 22, and the clamping portion 2111 may pass through the opening 223 and be clamped with the ironing body 30, so that when the locking member 122 does not abut against the clamping assembly 21, the clamping portion 2111 may lock the connector 20 with the ironing body 30.

[0099] Exemplarily, there may be two clamping parts 2111, and the two clamping parts 2111 may be distributed on both sides of the inclined surface where the clamping part 211 abuts the push rod 212, thereby improving the reliability of the clamping of the clamping part 211 and the ironing body 30, and correspondingly improving the reliability of the connection between the ironing body 30 and the connector 20. When the hanging iron is working in a wired state, the connector 20 will not fall off the ironing body 30.

[0100] As an optional method, the snap-on assembly 21 may further include a second elastic member 213, one end of the second elastic member 213 abuts against one end of the snap-on member 211 facing away from the opening 223, and the other end of the second elastic member 213 abuts against the mounting seat 24. The second elastic member 213 applies an elastic force toward the opening 223 to the snap-on portion 2111 so that the snap-on portion 2111 extends from the opening 223, thereby locking the connector 20 and the ironing body 30, preventing the snap-on portion 2111 from disengaging from the ironing body 30, and improving the reliability of the connection between the ironing body 30 and the connector 20.

[0101] Specifically, when the push rod 212 abuts against the second protrusion 1222 and is pushed upward, the push rod 212 will push the clamping member 211 to move away from the opening 223 on the shell 22 and compress the second elastic member 213. When the second protrusion 1222 is disengaged from the push rod 212, the spring will push the clamping member 211 to move toward the opening 223 on the shell 11 and extend from the opening 223 to clamp the ironing body 30. At the same time, the clamping member 211 will push the push rod 212 to move downward.

[0102] Optionally, the second elastic member 213 may be a spring, and the damping force of the spring may be selected to control the damping force of the locking member 211 , and accordingly the damping force of the rotating rod 121 to push the locking member 122 to move may be controlled.

[0103] As an optional embodiment, the ironing body 30 includes an ironing portion 31 and a handle 32, the ironing portion 31 is connected to one end of the handle 32, and the other end of the handle 32 abuts against the top of the connector 20. In this way, the connector 20 can be fixed to the end of the ironing body 30, which is convenient for the user to hold the handle 32, so that the garment steamer has a good user experience when in a wired state.

[0104] Specifically, the handle 32 has a second accommodating cavity, and at least part of the structure of the connector 20 is inserted into the second accommodating cavity by the end of the handle 32. At least one second card groove is provided on the inner wall of the second accommodating cavity, and the clamping portion 2111 can pass through the opening 223 and be clamped with the second card groove, thereby preventing the end of the connector 20 from falling out of the second accommodating cavity.

[0105] As an optional embodiment, the locking assembly 12 may further include a support seat 123 and a third elastic member 124. The support seat 123 is fixedly connected to the base 10. The support seat 123 has a second slide groove 1231. The locking member 122 is slidably arranged in the second slide groove 1231, so as to limit the moving direction of the locking member 122 and avoid misalignment when the locking member 122 abuts against the connector 20.

[0106] Specifically, the first end of the third elastic member 124 can abut against the first end of the locking member 122, and the second end of the third elastic member 124 abuts against the end of the second slide groove 1231, so as to apply elastic force toward the cam portion 1211 to the locking member 122. In this way, when the cam portion 1211 rotates, the second end of the locking member 122 can always abut against the cam surface, thereby ensuring that the cam portion 1211 can achieve the locking or unlocking of the ironing body 30, the connector 20 and the base 10 by continuous rotation in one direction or reciprocating rotation.

[0107] Optionally, the second end of the locking member 122 may be provided with a slide plate 1225 abutting against the second slide groove 1231, thereby increasing the contact area between the locking member 122 and the second slide groove 1231, thereby improving the stability of the locking member 122 sliding in the second slide groove 1231, and a groove 1226 may be provided at the end of the slide plate 1225, and the third elastic member 124 may be provided in the groove 1226 and abut against the end of the groove 1226, thereby applying an elastic force to the locking member 122 toward the rotating rod 121.

[0108] Optionally, the third elastic member 124 may be a spring, and the damping of the rebound of the locking member 122 may be controlled by selecting the elastic force of the spring, and accordingly the damping of the rotating rod 121 pushing the locking member 122 to move may be controlled.

[0109] As an optional embodiment, a first electrode is provided on the ironing body 30, and a second electrode is provided on the connector 20. The second electrode can be provided on the mounting seat 24. When the end of the ironing body 30 is plugged into the upper end of the connector 20, the first electrode can pass through the through hole at the top of the shell 22 of the connector 20 and abut against the second electrode, so that when the ironing body 30 is connected to the connector 20, the wired working mode of the ironing machine can be realized.

[0110] Optionally, a charging power supply is provided in the ironing body 30, the first electrode is electrically connected to the charging power supply, the connector 20 can be connected to an external power supply via a wire, and the second electrode is electrically connected to the wire, so that when the hanging iron works in a wireless state, the charging power supply in the ironing body 30 can provide a certain battery life, and when working in a wired state, the external power supply can be used to power the charging power supply through the conversion of the connector 20. In addition, when the charging power supply is exhausted, it can be charged.

[0111] Furthermore, a heat storage body, a water pump and a water tank are also arranged inside the ironing body 30. When the ironing body 30 is connected to the connector 20, the connector 20 can provide electric energy for the heat storage body to heat by connecting to an external power supply, and the charging power supply inside the ironing body 30 can supply power to the water pump to pump the water in the water tank and form hot steam after passing through the heat storage body. When the clothes hanger iron works in a wired state, via the transfer of the connector 20, the external power supply can continuously heat the heat storage body without being affected by the battery life; when the clothes hanger iron works in a wireless state, the heat storage body can retain the heat generated during heating in the wired state and thus has a certain battery life.

[0112] In addition, it should be noted that an avoidance groove is provided on the base 10, and the avoidance groove is used to accommodate the electric wire, so as to prevent the electric wire from interfering with the groove wall of the accommodation groove 101 when the connector 20 is taken out of or put into the accommodation groove 101.

[0113] The clothes hanger iron provided in this embodiment includes a base, a connector and an ironing body. The ironing body is detachably connected to the connector. The base includes a housing and a locking assembly. The housing has an accommodation groove. At least part of the structure of the ironing body and the connector are located in the accommodation groove. The locking assembly is installed outside the accommodation groove. The locking assembly includes a rotating rod and a locking member. The first end of the locking member faces the connector and is used to lock at least two of the base, the connector and the ironing body. The rotating rod has a cam portion, and the cam surface of the cam portion has different distances from the rotation axis of the rotating rod at different positions in the circumferential direction. The second end of the locking member abuts against the cam surface of the cam portion. When the cam portion rotates circumferentially around the axis of the rotating rod, the locking member can be pushed by the cam portion to arbitrarily switch between at least three different stroke positions. In different stroke positions of the locking member, at least two of the connector, the base and the ironing body are in a state locked by the locking member, so that the clothes hanger iron can be switched between a wired state, a wireless state and a fixed state, and the user can select according to the actual use scenario, without being limited by the battery life and also having good convenience.

[0114] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit them; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements for some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
