[0002] Clothes are prone to wrinkles after washing, storage and preservation, so in order to ensure the flatness of upper body clothes, many users will iron their clothes. Generally speaking, there are two ways to iron clothes, one is hanging ironing and the other is flat ironing. As the name suggests, hanging ironing is to iron clothes in a hanging state. The corresponding hanging ironing machine continuously contacts clothes and fabrics through the water vapor generated internally to achieve the purpose of softening the fiber tissue of clothes and fabrics. Since the direct contact and friction of the machine on the clothes are reduced, the safety of the clothes can be better guaranteed. However, for some clothes with special versions and heavy clothes, the effect of hanging ironing is not ideal. Flat ironing must be used, and the ironing plate must be in direct contact with the clothes to better deal with wrinkles. Therefore, for users, it is crucial that the corresponding ironing equipment can meet the needs of both hanging ironing and flat ironing.

[0003] Therefore, the market has launched ironing equipment that can meet the needs of hanging ironing and flat ironing. Figure 1 As shown, the ironing device disclosed in Chinese Invention Publication No. CN111254679A is schematically illustrated. The ironing device includes a body 1, a flat ironing assembly 2, a hanging ironing assembly 3, a height adjustment assembly 4, and a steam iron 6. The hanging ironing assembly 3 and the height adjustment assembly 4 are both mounted on the body 1, with the flat ironing assembly 2 mounted on the height adjustment assembly 4. The height adjustment assembly 4 is configured to drive the flat ironing assembly 2 to rise and fall. The flat ironing assembly 2 is configured to be able to be deployed and retracted, while the hanging ironing assembly 3 is configured to be able to be raised and lowered. According to the description of the aforementioned patent application, the height adjustment assembly 4 can be a telescopic frame structure, a structure directly driven by a hydraulic cylinder / cylinder, or a structure driven by a linear motor. Therefore, when a user needs flat ironing, the flat ironing assembly 2 can be raised, and when a hanging ironing assembly is needed, the hanging ironing assembly 3 can be raised, thereby meeting different user needs.

[0004] However, if Figure 1 As shown, the height of the ironing assembly 2 is maintained by the height adjustment assembly 4. The height adjustment assembly 4 needs to have a strong structural strength to lock the height of the ironing assembly 2 at the set position, and has high performance requirements for the corresponding telescopic frame, hydraulic cylinder / pneumatic cylinder or linear motor.
