At the same time, the button triggers the circuit board to realize the control of the ironing device. When the button is released, that is, when the button is released from the pressed state, during the process of the elastic rib recovering its elastic deformation, the elastic rib pushes the button to move, so that the button is reset. The ironing device proposed in this application realizes the reset of the button through the elastic deformation of the elastic rib, does not require the use of a spring, thereby reducing the use of the spring, reducing the material cost, and improving the assembly efficiency of the ironing device.

Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0055] Next, refer to Figures 1 to 12 Describe the ironing device 1 and the laundry processor according to some embodiments of the present invention.

[0056] As Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 And Figure 12As shown, according to an embodiment of the present utility model, the present utility model provides an ironing device 1 for a clothing processor. The clothing processor includes a steam generating part 2 for delivering steam to the ironing device 1. The ironing device 1 includes: a housing 10 with a keyhole 102 provided thereon; at least one key 12 disposed in the keyhole 102 and capable of moving within the keyhole 102; a circuit board 14 disposed within the housing 10 and opposite to the key 12; and an elastic rib 16 disposed within the housing 10 between the circuit board 14 and the key 12. At least one end of the key 12 extending into the housing 10 is opposite to the elastic rib 16. When the key 12 is in a pressed state, the key 12 pushes the elastic rib 16 to elastically deform. When the key 12 is released from being pressed, the elastic rib 16 pushes the key 12 to reset.

[0057] The ironing device 1 provided by the present utility model includes a housing 10, at least one key 12, a circuit board 14, and an elastic rib 16. The circuit board 14 is disposed within the housing 10, and the housing 10 is provided with a keyhole 102. The key 12 is disposed in the keyhole 102 and opposite to the circuit board 14, so that the circuit board 14 can be triggered by the key 12 under the drive of an external force. Among them, the elastic rib 16 is disposed between the circuit board 14 and the key 12, and the elastic rib 16 has the ability of elastic deformation. When the key 12 is in a pressed state, the key 12 can push the elastic rib 16 to make the elastic rib 16 elastically deform, and at the same time, the key 12 triggers the circuit board 14 to realize the control of the ironing device 1. When the key 12 is released, so that the key 12 is released from being pressed, during the process of the elastic rib 16 restoring its elastic deformation, the elastic rib 16 pushes the key 12 to move, so that the key 12 resets. The ironing device 1 proposed in the present application realizes the reset of the key 12 through the elastic deformation of the elastic rib 16, does not need to use a spring 19, thereby reducing the use of the spring 19, reducing the material cost, and improving the assembly efficiency of the ironing device 1.

[0058] Optionally, the key 12 includes a steam key 124, a mode key 122, and an explosion steam key 120. Among them, the steam key 124 is used to turn on and off the steam output, the mode key 122 is used to switch the steam output mode, and the explosion steam key 120 is used to turn on and off the large amount of steam ironing.

[0059] Optionally, the elastic rib 16 is connected to the housing 10. Specifically, the elastic rib 16 is connected to the housing 10 through other structures, or the elastic rib 16 is directly connected to the housing 10.

[0060] Such as Figure 5As shown, in some embodiments, optionally, the ironing device 1 further includes: a bracket 18, the bracket 18 is disposed inside the housing 10, between the circuit board 14 and the button 12, at least one button groove 180 is provided on the bracket 18, a part of at least one button 12 is disposed in the button groove 180, and the elastic rib 16 is disposed in the button groove 180 or the elastic rib 16 is disposed on the circuit board 14.

[0061] In this embodiment, the ironing device 1 further includes a bracket 18, the bracket 18 is located between the circuit board 14 and the button 12, and the part of the button 12 extending into the housing 10 is located in the button groove 180, realizing the limit of the button 12 and ensuring the travel reliability of the button 12. Among them, the elastic rib 16 is disposed in the button groove 180 or on the circuit board 14, and the circuit board 14 or the bracket 18 provides an installation position for the elastic rib 16, so that the elastic rib 16 is located between the circuit board 14 and the button 12, and further provides a return force for the button 12.

[0062] As Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, optionally, a through hole 182 is provided on the bottom wall of any one of the button grooves 180. When the elastic rib 16 is disposed in the button groove 180, the elastic rib 16 is disposed at the through hole 182.

[0063] In this embodiment, a through hole 182 is provided on the bottom wall of any one of the button grooves 180, and the elastic rib 16 is disposed at the through hole 182, so that the elastic rib 16 has a certain space for elastic deformation, ensuring the reset reliability of the button 12.

[0064] As Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, optionally, one end of the elastic rib 16 is connected to the inner wall surface of the through hole 182, the other end of the elastic rib 16 is suspended in the through hole 182 and contacts the button 12, and there is a gap between the elastic rib 16 and the inner wall surface of the through hole 182 to enclose a hollow area 184 with the inner wall surface of the through hole 182.

[0065] In this embodiment, one end of the elastic rib 16 is connected to the inner wall surface of the through hole 182, and the other end of the elastic rib 16 is suspended in the through hole 182. Thus, the elastic rib 16 can undergo elastic deformation under the action of an external force, and the degree of elastic deformation that the elastic rib 16 can undergo is increased. When the button 12 is in the pressed state, the button 12 presses the elastic rib 16 towards the circuit board 14, causing the suspended portion of the elastic rib 16 to undergo elastic deformation towards the circuit board 14. When the button 12 is released, the button 12 is reset under the resilience of the elastic rib 16. The reset structure of the button 12 is simple and does not require the use of a spring 19, simplifying the assembly process of the button 12. At the same time, there is a gap between the elastic rib 16 and the inner wall surface of the through hole 182, so that the elastic rib 16 and the inner wall surface of the through hole 182 enclose a hollow area 184, reducing the blockage of the button 12, thereby reducing the resistance of the button 12 to click on the circuit board 14 and improving the resilience effect of the elastic rib 16.

[0066] Optionally, the elastic rib 16 can be a straight rib or an arc-shaped rib.

[0067] As Figure 6 and Figure 9 shown, in some embodiments, optionally, the elastic rib 16 includes: a connecting portion 160, one end of the connecting portion 160 is connected to the inner wall surface of the through hole 182; a suspended portion 162, one end of the suspended portion 162 is connected to the other end of the connecting portion 160, the other end of the suspended portion 162 is suspended in the through hole 182, and the suspended portion 162 is in contact with the button 12; the suspended portion 162 is arc-shaped.

[0068] In this embodiment, the elastic rib 16 includes a connecting portion 160 and a suspended portion 162. The connecting portion 160 connects the inner wall surface of the through hole 182 and the suspended portion 162. One end of the suspended portion 162 is suspended in the through hole 182 and is in contact with the button 12. When the button 12 is pressed, the suspended portion 162 can displace, thereby generating deformation energy to drive the button 12 to reset when the button 12 is not in the pressed state.

[0069] In some embodiments, optionally, the suspended portion 162 is arc-shaped.

[0070] In this embodiment, the suspended portion 162 is arranged in an arc shape, thereby increasing the contact area between the elastic rib 16 and the button 12, and being able to adapt to the shape of the button 12, enhancing the driving force for resetting the button 12 and ensuring the rapid resilience effect of the button 12.

[0071] It can be understood that the connecting portion 160 and the suspended portion 162 are of an integral structure.

[0072] As Figure 8 、 Figure 10 and Figure 11As shown, in some embodiments, optionally, the button 12 includes: a limiting platform 126, the limiting platform 126 contacts the side of the elastic rib 16 away from the circuit board 14; a trigger end 128, the trigger end 128 passes through the through hole 182, the limiting platform 126 is arranged on the side wall of the trigger end 128, the elastic rib 16 surrounds the periphery of the trigger end 128, the trigger end 128 protrudes from the side of the elastic rib 16 close to the circuit board 14, or is flush with the side of the elastic rib 16 close to the circuit board 14; wherein, the circuit board 14 includes a switch 140, and the trigger end 128 is used to trigger the switch 140.

[0073] In this embodiment, the button 12 includes a limiting platform 126 and a trigger end 128. The limiting platform 126 is arranged on the side wall of the trigger end 128. The trigger end 128 passes through the through hole 182. The elastic rib 16 surrounds the trigger end 128, and the limiting platform 126 contacts the side of the elastic rib 16 away from the circuit board 14. In this way, when the button 12 is in the pressed state, the limiting platform 126 pushes the elastic rib 16 to deform, and the trigger end 128 passes through the through hole 182 to contact the switch 140 on the circuit board 14, thereby triggering the switch 140. At the same time, the trigger end 128 protrudes from the side of the elastic member close to the circuit board 14, or is flush with the side of the elastic rib 16 close to the circuit board 14, ensuring that the trigger end 128 can trigger the switch 140 during the pressing process and improving the reliability of the button 12 triggering the circuit board 14.

[0074] Specifically, the limiting platform 126 contacts the upper surface of the elastic rib 16. When the button 12 is in the pressed state, the extending length of the trigger end 128 is greater than the thickness of the elastic rib 16, thereby ensuring that the trigger end 128 can trigger the switch 140.

[0075] As Figure 6 shown, in some embodiments, optionally, the number of elastic ribs 16 in any through hole 182 is at least two, and the trigger end 128 is located between at least two elastic ribs 16.

[0076] In this embodiment, at least two elastic ribs 16 are arranged in any through hole 182, and the trigger end 128 is arranged between at least two elastic ribs 16, improving the supporting effect and the resilience of the elastic ribs 16 on the button 12.

[0077] In some embodiments, optionally, along the pressing direction of the button 12, at least two elastic ribs 16 in any through hole 182 are arranged to avoid the switch 140.

[0078] In this embodiment, along the pressing direction of the button 12, at least two elastic ribs 16 in any through hole 182 are arranged to avoid the switch 140, so that the switch 140 is located in the area between the two elastic members, thereby avoiding interference between the elastic ribs 16 and the switch 140 when pressing the button 12.

[0079] Specifically, in the projection on the circuit board 14 along the perpendicular direction of the circuit board 14, the switch 140 is located between two elastic ribs 16.

[0080] As Figure 6 shown, in some embodiments, optionally, at least two elastic ribs 16 are centrosymmetric with respect to the center of the through hole 182.

[0081] In this embodiment, at least two elastic ribs 16 are centrosymmetric with respect to the center of the through hole 182, making the layout of the elastic ribs 16 more reasonable. On the one hand, it is convenient for the manufacturing of the elastic ribs 16. On the other hand, it can also make the supporting forces of at least two elastic ribs 16 on various parts of the button 12 more uniform, thereby ensuring the stability of the button 12 during rebound, avoiding the situation of tilting when the button 12 rebounds, and thus avoiding friction between the button 12 and the inner wall surface of the button groove 180, meeting the performance requirement of the rapid rebound of the button 12.

[0082] In some embodiments, optionally, the elastic rib 16 includes a plastic part; and / or the elastic rib 16 and the bracket 18 are of an integral structure.

[0083] In this embodiment, the elastic rib 16 includes a plastic part. The plastic part has a certain elastic deformation ability, is light in weight, has good resilience, and is inexpensive, which is beneficial to improving the service life and reducing the manufacturing cost. The elastic rib 16 and the bracket 18 are of an integral structure, thereby enhancing the connection strength between the elastic rib 16 and the bracket 18, increasing the service life of the elastic rib 16, making the elastic rib 16 and the bracket 18 integrally manufactured, and reducing the assembly procedure.

[0084] As Figure 7 and Figure 8 shown, in some embodiments, optionally, a part of the button 12 passes through the through hole 182 and is disposed opposite to the circuit board 14, and another part of the button 12 is supported by the elastic rib 16.

[0085] In this embodiment, a part of the button 12 passes through the through hole 182, and another part of the button 12 is supported on the elastic rib 16, thereby reducing the distance between the button 12 and the circuit board 14. When pressing the button 12, the deformation degree of the elastic rib 16 is reduced, and thus the service life of the elastic rib 16 is increased.

[0086] Optionally, the middle part of the button 12 is disposed in the hollow area 184 between the two elastic ribs 16, and another part of the button 12 is supported on the elastic rib 16.

[0087] As Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments, optionally, the number of buttons 12 is multiple; at least one button 12 is disposed opposite to the elastic rib 16 and reset by the elastic rib 16; a spring 19 is sleeved on at least one button 12, one end of the spring 19 contacts the button 12, and the other end of the spring 19 contacts the housing 10. When the button 12 is in a pressed state, the spring 19 deforms to reset at least one button 12.

[0088] In this embodiment, the number of buttons 12 is multiple, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, at least one button 12 is reset by the elastic rib 16, reducing the use of the spring 19 and improving the assembly efficiency. As Figure 4 shown, at least one button 12 is reset by the spring 19. When the button 12 is in a pressed state, the spring 19 is in a compressed state. When the button 12 is released from being pressed, the spring 19 recovers its deformation and drives the button 12 to reset.

[0089] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a clothing processor is further provided, including: a steam generating unit 2; and the ironing device 1 as proposed in any of the above embodiments, and the steam generating unit 2 is configured to supply steam to the ironing device 1.

[0090] The clothing processor provided by the present invention includes the ironing device 1 as proposed in any of the above embodiments, and thus has all the beneficial effects of the ironing device 1.

[0091] Optionally, a steam channel and a steam outlet are provided in the ironing device 1, and the steam channel communicates the steam outlet and the steam generating unit 2.

[0092] Optionally, the clothing processor includes a clothes hanger iron.

[0093] In a specific application, the ironing device 1 has an explosion steam button 120, a mode button 122, an upper housing 104 of the handle, a button bracket (such as bracket 18), a circuit board 14, a steam button bracket, a steam button spring (such as spring 19), a steam button 124, and a lower housing 106 of the handle.

[0094] When the steam button 124 is pressed upward, the steam button 124 receives an upward acting force. The steam button 124 contacts the steam button spring, and the steam button spring contracts upward, generating a downward elastic force. When the upward pressing force disappears, the downward elastic force generated by the elastic deformation of the steam button spring drives the steam button 124 in contact with it to move downward together, so as to achieve the rebounding effect of the steam button 124 and make the steam button 124 return to the state before being pressed.

[0095] When the explosion steam button 120 and the mode button 122 are pressed downwards, downward forces are respectively exerted on the two buttons 12. The steam button 124 and the mode button 122 come into contact with the hollow rib positions of the button bracket (such as the elastic rib 16). Due to the design of the hollow rib positions, the ribs have certain elastic deformation characteristics and can deform downwards, so that the button 12 drives the hollow rib positions of the button bracket to move downwards together. When the downward pressing force disappears, the hollow rib positions return to their original state due to elastic deformation, generating an upward elastic force and moving upwards, and driving the explosion steam button 120 and the mode button 122 in contact with them to move upwards together, thus achieving the rebounding effect of the button 12 and restoring the explosion steam button 120 and the mode button 122 to their states before being pressed.

[0096] Through the design of the rib hollow structure of the button bracket, the ribs obtain a certain elastic deformation ability, thereby realizing the rebounding effect of the button 12, enabling the rebounding effect of the button 12 to be achieved without installing the spring 19, and reducing the material cost and assembly cost of the spring 19.

[0097] The design of the hollow rib positions of the button bracket can be on the circuit board 14.
