Summary of the Utility Model

[0003] The utility model aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art or related technologies.

[0004] To this end, the utility model provides a clothing processor.

[0005] In view of this, the utility model provides a clothing processor, including: a housing provided with a through hole; a steam generating part disposed in the housing, the steam generating part including a pot body and a water outlet pipe connected to the pot body, the water outlet pipe passing through the through hole; a heat insulation ring sleeved on the water outlet pipe, at least a part of the heat insulation ring being located between the inner wall surface of the housing and the pot body; and a sealing cover at least partially located outside the housing for opening or closing the water outlet pipe.

[0006] The clothing processor provided by the utility model includes a housing, a steam generating part, a heat insulation ring and a sealing cover.

The water tank assembly is disposed in the first accommodation groove, and the ironing assembly is disposed in the second accommodation groove. At the same time, the first accommodation groove and the second accommodation groove are adjacent along the first direction, so that the water tank assembly and the ironing assembly are located on the same side of the partition plate, which is convenient for the user to operate the water tank assembly and the ironing assembly on the same side of the laundry processor. It also makes the overall shape of the laundry processor flat and not bulky, and makes the laundry processor thinner, with a compact structure and high space utilization rate, which is convenient for the storage of the laundry processor and improves the convenience of using the laundry processor.

[0024] Specifically, the surrounding plate is disposed on the first side of the partition plate along a second direction, and the second housing is disposed on the second side of the partition plate along the second direction.

[0025] In some embodiments, optionally, the laundry processor further includes: a filter. The bottom wall of the first accommodation groove is recessed into the installation cavity to form an installation groove. The filter is disposed in the installation groove. The filter is connected between the water tank assembly and the water inlet. Wherein, a through hole is disposed in the second housing. Along the first direction, the filter is located on one side of the steam generating part; and / or along the height direction, the bottom wall of the installation groove is lower than the top wall of the steam generating part; and / or along the height direction, a part of the projection of the steam generating part coincides with at least a part of the projection of the water tank assembly, and a part of the projection of the steam generating part coincides with at least a part of the projection of the ironing assembly.

[0026] In this embodiment, the laundry processor further includes a filter, which is connected between the water tank assembly and the water inlet, so that the liquid in the water tank assembly is filtered by the filter and then conveyed into the steam generating part, improving the purity of the steam. The bottom wall of the first receiving groove is recessed towards the installation cavity to form an installation groove, and the filter is installed in the installation groove, shortening the distance between the filter and the water tank assembly, thereby shortening the connecting water path between the water tank assembly and the filter and reducing the liquid flow resistance. Among them, the filter is arranged on one side of the steam generating part along the first direction, so that the filter and the steam generating part are arranged along the first direction, reducing the occupation of the second direction of the laundry processor, making the overall structure of the laundry processor compact and flat. In addition, along the height direction, the bottom wall of the installation groove is lower than the top wall of the steam generating part, so that the installation groove sinks into the installation cavity, further making the structure of the laundry processor more compact, improving the space utilization rate in the installation cavity, and reducing the height of the steam in the laundry processor. Optionally, along the height direction, a part of the projection of the steam generating part coincides with at least a part of the projection of the water tank assembly, and a part of the projection of the steam generating part coincides with at least a part of the projection of the ironing assembly, so that a part of the steam generating part is located below the water tank assembly, and a part of the steam generating part is located below the ironing assembly, that is, the steam generating part is generally located below the middle position of the connection line between the water tank assembly and the ironing assembly, further making the arrangement of the steam generating part, the ironing assembly and the water tank assembly along the first direction more compact, and also avoiding the occupation of the front and back directions of the laundry processor by the components in the installation cavity, thereby making the overall shape of the laundry processor flat and not bulky, making the laundry processor thinner, with a compact structure and high space utilization rate, and thus facilitating the storage of the laundry processor and improving the convenience of using the laundry processor.

[0028] In this embodiment, the laundry processor further includes an electric control box, which is electrically connected to the steam generating part and the ironing assembly for controlling the laundry processor. Among them, the electric control box is located on the other side of the steam generating part along the first direction and is arranged opposite to the ironing assembly along the height direction, thereby arranging the electric control box, the steam generating part and the filter along the first direction, making the structures of each component compact, and making the overall structure of the laundry processor flat, which is convenient for storage and use.

[0029] The laundry processor further includes a pump body, which is connected between the filter and the water inlet of the steam generating unit and is configured to pump liquid into the steam generating unit. The pump body is located at the bottom of the filter and on one side of the steam generating unit along the first direction, such that the pump body and the steam generating unit are also arranged along the first direction, which can not only make the component structure in the installation cavity compact, but also make the overall laundry processor flat, which is more conducive to the storage and use of the laundry processor.

It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments may be combined with each other.

[0054] In the following description, many specific details are set forth in order to fully understand the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0055] The following refers to Figures 1 to 14 Describe a laundry processor according to some embodiments of the present invention.

[0056] As Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 And Figure 4 As shown in, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the present invention provides a laundry processor, including: a housing 1, on which a through-hole 10 is provided; a steam generating portion 2, disposed inside the housing 1, the steam generating portion 2 includes a pot body 20 and a water outlet pipe 22 connected to the pot body 20, the water outlet pipe 22 penetrates through the through-hole 10; a heat insulating ring 3, the heat insulating ring 3 is sleeved on the water outlet pipe 22, and at least a part of the heat insulating ring 3 is located between the inner wall surface of the housing 1 and the pot body 20; a sealing cover 4, at least partially located outside the housing 1, for opening or closing the water outlet pipe 22.

[0057] The clothes processor provided by the utility model includes a housing 1, a steam generating part 2, a heat insulation ring 3 and a sealing cover 4. The steam generating part 2 includes a pot body 20 and a water outlet pipe 22 arranged on the pot body 20.

Wherein, at least a part of the heat insulation ring 3 is located between the inner wall surface of the housing 1 and the pot body 20. When the steam generating part 2 is working, the temperature of the pot body 20 is relatively high. The heat insulation ring 3 separates the pot body 20 from the housing 1, which can avoid the heat of the pot body 20 being transferred to the housing 1 and reduce the possibility of the housing 1 being deformed by heat. At the same time, the heat insulation ring 3 is sleeved on the water outlet pipe 22, without the need to add other installation structures for the heat insulation ring 3, reducing the manufacturing cost and improving the assembly efficiency of the clothes processor.

[0062] In this embodiment, a part of the heat insulation ring 3 is located between the inner wall surface of the housing 1 and the pot body 20, which is used to isolate the outer wall of the pot body 20 from the inner wall surface of the housing 1, avoiding the heat of the pot body 20 being transferred to the housing 1 and thus preventing the situation that the housing 1 is deformed by heat. Another part of the heat insulation ring 3 is located between the inner wall surface of the through hole 10 and the pot body 20. On the one hand, this setting can separate the water outlet pipe 22 from the inner wall surface of the through hole 10, avoiding the possibility of heat being transferred to the housing 1 due to the direct contact between the water outlet pipe 22 and the housing 1. On the other hand, the part of the heat insulation ring 3 arranged in the through hole 10 can also seal the gap between the through hole 10 and the water outlet pipe 22, avoiding dust entering through the gap between the water outlet pipe 22 and the through hole 10, and avoiding the situation that liquid flows into the housing 1 along the outer wall of the water outlet pipe 22 when pouring the liquid. When the heat insulation ring 3 is all located between the inner wall surface of the housing 1 and the pot body 20, the manufacturing difficulty and installation difficulty of the heat insulation ring 3 are reduced.

[0064] In some embodiments, optionally, the heat insulation ring 3 includes a rubber ring or a silica gel ring; and / or the sealing cover 4 includes a silica gel heat insulation cover or a rubber heat insulation cover.

[0065] In this embodiment, the heat insulation ring 3 includes a rubber ring or a silica gel ring, which can effectively reduce the heat transfer between the housing 1 and the pot body 20 and reduce the possibility of the housing 1 deforming due to heat. The sealing cover 4 includes a silica gel heat insulation cover or a rubber heat insulation cover, so that the sealing cover 4 has a heat insulation function and a sealing function, and can effectively reduce the heat transfer between the housing 1 and the pot body 20. At the same time, the sealing cover 4 is soft in texture, and the sealing of the water outlet pipe 22 can be realized through the interference fit between the sealing cover 4 and the water outlet pipe 22, improving the sealing effect and thus avoiding water leakage or steam leakage from the water outlet pipe 22.

[0066] As Figure 5 and Figure 6 shown, in some embodiments, optionally, the sealing cover 4 is connected to the housing 1 and can move relative to the housing 1 to open or close the water outlet pipe 22.

[0069] In this embodiment, the sealing cover 4 includes a cover body 40 and a connecting portion 42. The cover body 40 is connected to the connecting portion 42, and the connecting portion 42 and the housing 1 are slidably connected through the cooperation of a first limiting structure 420 and a second limiting structure 12, so that the connecting portion 42 can extend out of the housing 1 or retract into the housing 1. Specifically, when the cover body 40 is pulled to open the water outlet pipe 22, the cover body 40 drives the connecting portion 42 to move, so that the connecting portion 42 extends out of the housing 1 by sliding the first limiting structure 420 and the second limiting structure 12. When the cover body 40 is closed on the water outlet pipe 22, the cover body 40 drives the connecting portion 42 into the housing 1, thereby preventing the connecting portion 42 from being exposed and improving the aesthetics of the laundry processor.

[0070] Optionally, when the cover body 40 opens the water outlet pipe 22, since the cover body 40 is connected to the housing 1 through the connecting portion 42, the cover body 40 can block the front side of the nozzle of the water outlet pipe 22, thereby preventing the liquid discharged from the water outlet pipe 22 from scalding the user.
