[0039] It should also be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "disposed" and "connected" 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 direct connection, or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two elements. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0040] See also Figures 1 to 3 The embodiment of the present application provides a garment steamer 10. The garment steamer 10 has a dry ironing mode and a steam ironing mode. The dry ironing mode refers to the garment steamer 10 spraying a dry hot air flow to iron the object to be ironed. The steam ironing mode refers to the garment steamer 10 spraying a high-temperature steam to iron the object to be ironed.

[0041] In some embodiments, the garment steamer 10 may include a garment steamer body 11 , an ironing board 12 and a fan 13 .

[0042] A first air duct 1101 and a second air duct 1103 that are isolated from each other are disposed inside the garment steamer body 11. The first air duct 1101 and the second air duct 1103 can both pass through opposite sides of the garment steamer body 11.

[0043] The ironing board 12 is disposed on the garment steamer body 11 and is provided with a first air inlet hole 1201 communicating with the first air duct 1101 and a second air inlet hole 1203 communicating with the second air duct 1103 .

[0044] In one embodiment, the ironing board 12 can be mounted and fixed on the steamer body 11. The ironing board 12 can be made of a metal material with good thermal conductivity. A first sealing member 1011 can be provided between the ironing board 12 and the steamer body 11 to ensure the airtightness of the connection between the ironing board 12 and the steamer body 11. Figure 3 In the illustrated embodiment, the first sealing member 1011 may be disposed along the edge of the ironing board 12 and between the ironing board 12 and the garment steamer body 11. For example, the first sealing member 1011 may be a silicone ring.

[0045] Exemplarily, the first air inlet hole 1201 and the second air inlet hole 1203 may be strip holes extending along the length direction of the ironing board 12. Of course, the first air inlet hole 1201 may also be a plurality of holes arranged at intervals along the length direction of the ironing board 12, and the plurality of holes are all connected to the first air duct 1101. The second air inlet hole 1203 may also be a plurality of holes arranged at intervals along the length direction of the ironing board 12, and the plurality of holes are all connected to the second air duct 1103.

[0046] The fan 13 is arranged on the side of the garment steamer body 11 away from the ironing board 12, and the fan 13 is configured to form a negative pressure in the first air duct 1101, or to form a negative pressure in the second air duct 1103, or to form a negative pressure in both the first air duct 1101 and the second air duct 1103. It can be understood that the fan 13 can be directly / indirectly fixed on the side of the garment steamer body 11 away from the ironing board 12. The air inlet side of the fan 13 is connected to the first air duct 1101, or to the second air duct 1103, or to both the first air duct 1101 and the second air duct 1103, and the air outlet side of the fan 13 is arranged away from the first air duct 1101 and the second air duct 1103. When the fan 13 is running, the air in the first air duct 1101 is sucked to form a negative pressure in the first air duct 1101, or the air in the second air duct 1103 is sucked to form a negative pressure in the second air duct 1103, or the air in the first air duct 1101 and the second air duct 1103 is sucked to form negative pressure in both the first air duct 1101 and the second air duct 1103.

[0047] It can be understood that baffles (not shown) can be respectively provided at one end of the first air duct 1101 and the second air duct 1103 close to the fan 13. The baffle can be rotatably mounted on the air duct wall of the air duct where the baffle is located, and is used to control the on / off between the air duct where the baffle is located and the air inlet side of the fan. In one embodiment, the baffle may include a lever extending to the outside. The user can operate the lever to rotate the baffle to block the air duct where the baffle is located and the air inlet side of the fan, or rotate to connect the air duct where the baffle is located and the air inlet side of the fan. In another embodiment, the baffle includes a rotating shaft extending from the air duct wall of the air duct where the baffle is located. A driving motor is provided on the rotating shaft. An operating button that is connected to the driving motor signal can be provided on the body of the hanging iron. The user can control the driving motor to drive the baffle to rotate through the operating button, so that the baffle rotates to block the air duct where the baffle is located and the air inlet side of the fan, or rotates the baffle to connect the air duct where the baffle is located and the air inlet side of the fan. Through such an arrangement, when it is necessary to form a negative pressure in the first air duct 1101, the first air duct 1101 is connected to the air inlet side of the fan by rotating the baffle in the first air duct 1101, and then the gas in the first air duct 1101 is sucked by the fan 13; when it is necessary to form a negative pressure in the second air duct 1103, the second air duct 1101 is connected to the air inlet side of the fan by rotating the baffle in the second air duct 1103, and then the gas in the second air duct 1103 is sucked by the fan 13; when it is necessary to form a negative pressure in both the first air duct 1101 and the second air duct 1103, the first air duct 1101 is connected to the air inlet side of the fan by rotating the baffle in the first air duct 1101, and the second air duct 1101 is connected to the air inlet side of the fan by rotating the baffle in the second air duct 1103, and then the gas in the first air duct 1101 and the second air duct 1103 is sucked by the fan 13. Therefore, the user can selectively connect the first air duct 1101 with the air inlet side of the fan according to their own needs, or connect the second air duct 1103 with the air inlet side of the fan, or connect both the first air duct 1101 and the second air duct 1103 with the air inlet side of the fan, thereby meeting the user's needs for different adsorption strengths.

[0048] It should be noted that the specific setting of the baffle and its rotation drive mechanism can also refer to the contents of the relevant technology, and the present application is not limited to this, as long as the baffle can be switched between a first state of rotating to block the air duct where it is located and the air inlet side of the fan and a second state of rotating to connect the air duct where it is located and the air inlet side of the fan.

[0049] It can be understood that when the fan 13 simultaneously sucks the gas in the first air duct 1101 and the second air duct 1103, the baffles in the first air duct 1101 and the second air duct 1103 can be omitted, and the first air duct 1101 and the second air duct 1103 can always remain connected to the air inlet side of the fan.

[0050] The garment steamer 10 provided in the embodiment of the present application is provided with a first air inlet 1201 on the ironing board 12, and a first air duct 1101 connected to the first air inlet 1201 is provided on the garment steamer body 11. Thus, during the garment steaming process, the air in the first air duct 1101 is sucked by turning on the fan 13, so that a negative pressure is formed in the first air duct 1101, so that the air on the side of the ironing board 12 away from the garment steamer body 11 is sucked into the first air duct 1101 through the air inlet, and then the object to be ironed is adsorbed on the ironing board 12 because the surrounding air is sucked into the first air duct 1101, and the user does not need to fix the object to be ironed by hand, thereby improving the convenience of garment steaming. The fan 13 forms a negative pressure in the first air duct 1101, or in the second air duct 1103, or in the first air duct 1101 and the second air duct 1103, and the strength of the adsorption force can be adjusted. In addition, the airflow ejected by the hanging steamer 10 can be sucked into the first air duct 1101 through the first air inlet 1201 due to the negative pressure in the first air duct 1101, which can form a secondary ironing for the ironing object, thereby improving the ironing efficiency and the ironing effect. In addition, the ironing board 12 is a metal plate with good thermal conductivity. The temperature of the ironing board 12 during steam ironing can promote the evaporation of moisture on the surface of the ironing object, and the suction accelerates the flow of air around the ironing board 12, which helps to dry the ironing object. Compared with the traditional hanging steamer 10, the hanging steamer 10 provided in the embodiment of the present application can achieve ironing and drying in the steam ironing mode without the need to dry the clothes that have been ironed in the steam ironing mode separately, thereby helping to improve the user experience.

[0051] In some embodiments, the cross-sectional area of ​​the first air inlet 1201 along its radial direction is smaller than the cross-sectional area of ​​the first air duct 1101 along its radial direction. The cross-sectional area of ​​the second air inlet 1203 along its radial direction is smaller than the cross-sectional area of ​​the second air duct 1201 along its radial direction. This helps to increase the pressure difference between the inside and outside of the air duct, thereby accelerating the suction of air on the side of the ironing board 12 away from the main body 11 of the garment steamer.

[0052] See also Figure 3 A receiving chamber 1102 is further provided in the main body 11 of the garment steamer. The receiving chamber 1102 is isolated from the first air duct 1101 and the second air duct 1103.

[0053] A heating element 1012 is disposed in the receiving cavity 1102. It should be noted that the specific structure and function of the heating element 1012 can refer to the heating structure of the garment steamer 10 in the related art, and this application will not elaborate on this.

[0054] The ironing board 12 is also provided with an air jet hole 1202, which is in communication with the receiving cavity 1102. There may be a plurality of air jet holes 1202. The plurality of air jet holes 1202 may be arranged in a row along the length direction of the ironing board 12. The hole shapes of the plurality of air jet holes 1202 may be the same. Figure 2 In the illustrated embodiment, the jet holes 1202 located in the middle of the ironing board 12 among the plurality of jet holes 1202 are racetrack-shaped holes, and the long axis direction of the hole is consistent with the length direction of the ironing board 12, and the remaining jet holes 1202 are circular holes.

[0055] In the embodiment of the present application, a receiving cavity 1102 for accommodating a heating element 1012 is provided in a main body 11 of the garment steamer, and an air jet hole 1202 connected to the receiving cavity 1102 is provided on the ironing board 12, thereby allowing high-temperature steam to be ejected through the air jet hole 1202 to iron the objects to be ironed, thereby ensuring the realization of the basic functions of the garment steamer 10; by isolating the receiving cavity 1102 from the first air duct 1101 and the second air duct 1103, the air duct can, to a certain extent, block the heat conduction path between the heating element 1012 and a shell 1105 of the garment steamer main body 11 located on the side of the air duct away from the receiving cavity 1102, thereby avoiding scalding the user due to overheating of the shell 1105.

[0056] See also Figure 3 In some embodiments, the ironing board 12 is provided with a first plug-in portion 1204 and a second plug-in portion 1205 on one side close to the main body 11 of the hanging steamer. The first air inlet 1201 extends to the first plug-in portion 1204 and penetrates the first plug-in portion 1204. The first plug-in portion 1204 is inserted into the first air duct 1101 to connect the first air inlet 1201 with the first air duct 1101. The second air inlet 1203 extends to the second plug-in portion 1205 and penetrates the second plug-in portion 1205. The second plug-in portion 1205 is inserted into the second air duct 1103 to connect the second air inlet 1203 with the second air duct 1103. In this way, it is convenient to align the air inlet with the air duct, which is convenient for installation. Figure 3 In the illustrated embodiment, the apertures of the first air inlet hole 1201 and the second air inlet hole 1203 are gradually reduced along the air inlet direction, thereby facilitating air flow guidance.

[0057] In some embodiments, the garment steamer 10 may further include a steam nozzle 1014 sandwiched between the ironing board 12 and the garment steamer body 11. The steam nozzle 1014 is disposed corresponding to the air jet hole 1202 and connects the air jet hole 1202 with the receiving cavity 1102.

[0058] In one embodiment, the steam nozzle 1014 can be a nozzle made of silicone. Therefore, after the steam nozzle 1014 is clamped between the ironing board 12 and the garment steamer body 11, the steam nozzle 1014 itself can ensure the airtightness of the connection between the jet hole 1202 and the receiving cavity 1102.

[0059] In the embodiment of the present application, the provision of the steam nozzle 1014 , on the one hand, helps to achieve the connection between the air jet hole 1202 and the receiving cavity 1102 , and on the other hand, can play a role in guiding the ironing gas in the process of ejecting the ironing gas through the air jet hole 1202 .

[0060] See also Figures 2 to 4 In some embodiments, the first air inlet hole 1201 and the second air inlet hole 1203 are respectively located on both sides of the air injection hole 1202 , and the first air duct 1101 and the second air duct 1103 are respectively located on both sides of the receiving cavity 1102 .

[0061] In one embodiment, the first air inlet 1201 and the second air inlet 1203 are both strip-shaped holes extending along the length direction of the ironing board 12. The radial cross-sectional area of ​​the first air inlet 1201 may be smaller than the radial cross-sectional area of ​​the first air duct 1101. The radial cross-sectional area of ​​the second air inlet 1203 may be smaller than the radial cross-sectional area of ​​the second air duct 1103.

[0062] In the embodiment of the present application, the first air inlet hole 1201 and the second air inlet hole 1203 are arranged on both sides of the air jet hole 1202, and the first air duct 1101 and the second air duct 1103 which are respectively connected with the first air inlet hole 1201 and the second air inlet hole 1203 are arranged on both sides of the receiving cavity 1102. Thus, on the one hand, the first air inlet hole 1201 and the second air inlet hole 1203 can adsorb the ironing object from both sides of the air jet hole 1202, which helps to ensure the adsorption effect of the ironing machine 10 on the ironing object, thereby ensuring the improvement of the convenience of ironing; on the other hand, the first air inlet hole 1201 and the second air inlet hole 1203 can adsorb the ironing object from both sides of the air jet hole 1202. The first air duct 1101 and the second air duct 1103 can block the heat conduction path between the heating element 1012 and the shell of the hanging iron body 11, and the airflow can take away the heat radiated from the heating element 1012 through the wall of the receiving cavity 1102 during the process of the fan 13 sucking the air in the first air duct 1101 and the second air duct 1103, thereby preventing the shell located on the side of the first air duct 1101 away from the receiving cavity 1102 and the shell located on the side of the second air duct 1103 away from the receiving cavity 1102 from being overheated and scalding the user; on the other hand, such a structural setting is convenient for manufacturing.

[0063] See also Figure 4 In some embodiments, the garment steamer body 11 includes a housing 1105, and the first air duct 1101 and the receiving cavity 1102 are both located in the housing 1105. The housing 1105 can be made of high temperature resistant material to slow down the heat exchange between the housing 1105 and the surrounding environment.

[0064] In some embodiments, the shell 1105 includes a first shell 1106 and a second shell 1107, the first air duct 1101 is located on the first shell 1106, and the first shell 1106 is also provided with a first groove 1108 isolated from the first air duct 1101, the second air duct 1103 is located on the second shell 1107, and the second shell 1107 is also provided with a second groove 1109 isolated from the second air duct 1103, the first shell 1106 is docked with the second shell 1107, and the first groove 1108 and the second groove 1109 are enclosed to form a receiving cavity 1102.

[0065] In the embodiment of the present application, the provision of the first shell 1106 and the second shell 1107 facilitates the assembly of the garment steamer body 11 .

[0066] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the garment steamer 10 further includes an air duct adapter 14, which is disposed between the garment steamer body 11 and the fan 13 and connected to the garment steamer body 11. The air duct adapter 14 has an air outlet 1401 and a first air inlet 1402 and a second air inlet 1403 connected to the air outlet 1401. The first air inlet 1402 is connected to the first air duct 1101, and the second air inlet 1403 is connected to the second air duct 1103. The fan 13 is used to draw gas in the first air duct 1101 and the second air duct 1103 through the air outlet 1401 to form a negative pressure in the first air duct 1101.

[0067] In one embodiment, the air duct adapter 14 is mounted and fixed on the garment steamer body 11. A second sealing member 1017 may be provided between the air duct adapter 14 and the garment steamer body 11 to ensure the air tightness of the connection between the first air duct 1101 and the first air inlet 1402 and between the second air duct 1103 and the second air inlet 1403.
