Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of electric irons, and in particular to an electric iron capable of standing. Background Art
[0002] Electric irons are primarily used to iron clothes and smooth out wrinkles. During ironing, the heating wire inside the iron heats the baseplate, which then moves across the garment to iron the garment. After ironing, the iron is placed upright to allow the baseplate to cool naturally. However, people often forget to turn off the power to attend to emergencies. Since standard irons don't automatically shut off when you leave, the heater continues to heat the ironing plate, which is in constant contact with the fabric. This can cause overheating, burns, and even fires. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and to provide an electric iron that can stand up. When a person forgets to turn off the electric iron switch, the iron can stand up in time and automatically cut off the power, thereby avoiding burns to clothes or even fire.
[0004] To achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention provides the following technical solution: an electric iron capable of standing, comprising an electric iron body 11 and an electric iron base 7, wherein the electric iron body 11 comprises an ironing board 2, a body extension portion 3 of the electric iron body 11, and two sockets 1 at the bottom of the electric iron body 11, wherein the two sockets 1 are symmetrical about the central axis of the bottom of the electric iron body 11, and the two sockets 1 are the total circuit disconnection points of the internal working circuit of the electric iron body 11, and the two sockets 1 are respectively connected to the two ends of the total circuit disconnection point, the electric iron body 11 comprises a round key 4 at the bottom of the body, the body extension portion 3 comprises a threaded through hole for mounting a bolt 5 in the extension portion, and the bottom of the electric iron The base 7 includes an embedded conductive pin 10, a base extension 8, and a reset spring 6. Except for the conductive pin 10 and the reset spring 6, the rest of the electric iron base 7 is made of ceramic material, which has heat resistance (heat resistance above 1000°C) and insulation (electrical conductivity lower than 10^-16S / m). The conductive pin 10 is made of copper and has good conductivity (electrical conductivity higher than 5×10^6S / m). The conductive pin 10 is a rectangular base extending upward from two separate cylinders of equal radius and height. The electric iron base 7 includes a base circular key 9 near the end hinge, and the base extension 8 includes a through hole in the extension portion for installing the bolt 5.
[0005] The threaded through hole in the extended body portion 3 and the through hole in the extended base portion 8 have the same radius, and are connected at both ends by two identical bolts 5, allowing the electric iron body 11 or the electric iron base 7 to rotate about the bolts 5. The round key 4 at the bottom of the electric iron body 11 and the round key 9 at the base 7 have the same radius and height. The inner radius of the return spring 6 is the same as the round key 4 at the bottom of the body, and can precisely match with the round key 4 and the round key 9 at the base. The radius of the two sockets 1 at the bottom of the electric iron body 11 is the same as the radius of the cylindrical portion of the conductive pin 10 inserted into the electric iron base 7. The distance between the two sockets 1 at the bottom of the electric iron body 11 is the same as the distance between the two cylindrical portions of the conductive pin 10 inserted into the electric iron base 7, allowing them to match. The outer contour of the ironing board 2 is the same as the inner contour of the iron base 7. When the electric iron body 11 and the iron base 7 are closed, the thickness of the ironing board 2 is greater than that of the iron base 7.
[0006] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0007] The electric iron has a simple structure and is safe and reliable. When using the electric iron, the electric iron is pressed to bring the electric iron body 11 into contact with the electric iron base 7. The ironing board 2 can contact the heated object through the electric iron base 7. The conductive plug 10 is inserted into the two sockets 1 of the electric iron body 11. The disconnect point of the main circuit inside the electric iron is connected, and the electric iron operates normally. When the electric iron is no longer in use, the electric iron body 11 is rebounded by the return spring 6, and the conductive plug 10 is pulled out of the two sockets 1 of the electric iron body 11. The main circuit inside the electric iron body 11 is disconnected, the ironing board 2 is separated from the electric iron base 7, and the electric iron stops working. This prevents damage caused by the electric iron continuing to heat up when a user forgets to turn off the electric iron switch. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0018] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0019] It is to be noted that the directional concepts such as "left", "right", "up", "down", "front", "back", "inside" and "outside" in the following schemes are all relative directions and are not listed here one by one.
[0020] A standing electric iron, reference Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 7 A standing electric iron includes an electric iron body 11 and an electric iron base 7. Two sockets 1 on the bottom surface of the electric iron body 11 are the total circuit disconnection points of the internal working circuit of the electric iron body 11. The two sockets 1 are connected to the two ends of the total circuit disconnection point respectively. When the electric iron is no longer pressed, the electric iron body 11 is bounced upward by the action of the reset spring 6. Since the electric iron rotates with the bolt 5 as the axis and due to the structure of the body extension part 3 and the base extension part 8, the electric iron body 11 can rotate clockwise with the bolt 5 as the axis relative to the electric iron base 7 by a maximum of 90 degrees (with Figure 7 (front view perspective), at this time, the electric iron base 7 plays a role in supporting the electric iron body 11. Under the action of the electric iron base 7 and the return spring 6, the electric iron body 11 will maintain the maximum rotation angle, that is, the standing state. When the electric iron body 11 is bounced open by the return spring 6, the conductive pin 10 is also pulled out of the two sockets 1, the internal working circuit of the electric iron body 11 is disconnected, and the electric iron stops working. This can avoid the adverse consequences caused by the electric iron continuing to heat up when the user forgets to turn off the power of the electric iron.
[0021] refer to Figure 3 、 Figure 4 and Figure 7 When the electric iron needs to work normally, the user needs to press the electric iron body 11, and the electric iron body 11 rotates counterclockwise (with the bolt 5 as the axis) from the standing state. Figure 7 The iron base 7 is fitted with the iron body 7 (see front view). The ironing board 2 can contact the heated object through the iron base 7. The thickness of the ironing board 2 needs to be greater than that of the base 7 to ensure contact between the ironing board and the heated object. At this time, the conductive pin 10 is inserted into the two sockets 1 of the iron body 11. The internal working circuit of the iron body 11 is connected, and the iron can operate normally. Except for the conductive pin 10 and the return spring 6, the rest of the iron base 7 is made of ceramic material, which is heat-resistant (heat-resistant to 1000°C or above) and insulating (electrical conductivity less than 10^-16 S / m). There is no risk of leakage or burning, so it is safe, reliable, simple and convenient to use.
