Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of electric irons, and more specifically to an anti-calcification water tank for electric irons. Background Art

[0002] Electric irons are tools used to smooth clothes and fabrics. They can be roughly divided into ordinary, temperature-adjustable and steam-spray types. Steam-spray irons have both temperature-adjustable functions and can generate steam. Some are also equipped with spray devices, which eliminate the trouble of manual water spraying, making the clothes more evenly moistened and the ironing effect better, making them more popular.

[0003] The water quality has a great impact on the service life of steam spray type electric irons. The water used must be pure distilled water or boiled water. If ordinary tap water is used, the water will be calcified to form scale after vaporization and precipitate inside the iron, blocking the air jet holes, reducing the air jet volume, or even completely blocking it. Therefore, anti-calcification is very important for steam spray type electric irons, but existing steam spray type electric irons are either not equipped with anti-calcification devices or are equipped with scale collectors.

[0004] To this end, the applicant has provided a Chinese utility model patent with authorization announcement number CN210031256U, which is an anti-calcification electric iron. The electric iron has an anti-calcification box detachably embedded in the water inlet of the iron body, so that when the user adds water to the water inlet, the water will first enter the anti-calcification box for decalcification, and then flow out through the filter on the calcification box into the water tank, thereby preventing the water in the electric iron from being calcified.

[0005] However, after being put on the market, the applicant discovered that the electric iron had the following problems: first, because the anti-calcification box is installed at the water inlet, water must first pass through the anti-calcification box and the filter before flowing into the water tank, resulting in a slow water filling speed and a long water filling time for the electric iron; second, the contact time between water and the anti-calcification agent in the anti-calcification box is short, resulting in a short exchange time for calcium, magnesium and other ions in the water, and limited water purification efficiency and effect; third, the anti-calcification box uses snap-in ribs for snap-in limiting and disassembly, and its disassembly requires the anti-calcification box to be snapped out with force, which is quite inconvenient to operate, and the assembly is not stable and reliable and is easy to fall off.
