The suction force is large, and the part of the clothes that needs to be ironed can be flattened. The steam holes 333 are provided on both sides of the cover plate 332. 3 is placed in the middle of the flattened clothing, and steam is discharged through the steam holes 333 and sprayed onto the clothing, thereby ironing the clothing with good ironing effect. There is no need to hold the ironing device by hand, and the user can just use both hands to arrange the clothing. There is no need to set up an additional support frame for supporting the clothing, which simplifies the use and operation steps of ironing and improves the ironing efficiency. The cover plate 332 is separated from the shell body 331, which is convenient for installing the ironing unit 32 and the adsorption unit 31, and is convenient for processing the adsorption holes 312 and the steam holes 333.

[0051] In some possible implementations, see Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the ironing unit 32 is disposed within the housing 33, with an air duct 311 formed between the inner sidewall of the housing 33 and the ironing unit 32. This structural design reduces the size of the ironing device 3 and the number of components, thereby simplifying the assembly process of the ironing device 3. Optionally, the ironing unit 32 is disposed in the middle of the housing 33, with both ends of the ironing unit 32 connected to a groove structure provided within the housing 33. Air ducts 311 are formed between the two sides of the ironing unit 32 and the inner sidewall of the housing 33, and each air duct 311 has a corresponding suction hole 312. To improve the stability of the ironing unit 32 in the housing 33, a number of plug-in boards are spaced apart on the ironing unit 32, and slots are provided on the inner sidewall of the housing 33. The plug-in boards are inserted into the slots.

[0052] In some other possible implementations, referring to Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, an annular air duct seat 314 is provided within the housing 33. An air duct 311 is circumferentially defined on the air duct seat 314. The ironing unit 32 is positioned within the annular hole of the air duct seat 314. The fan 313 can be secured to the air duct seat 314. To secure the ironing unit 32, a plurality of retaining bumps are circumferentially defined on the inner sidewall of the annular hole. These retaining bumps press against the ironing unit 32, thereby securing the ironing unit 32.

[0053] In some possible implementations, such as Figure 5 As shown, at least one fan 313 is provided, and the fan 313 is connected to the side of the air duct 311. Preferably, a single fan 313 can be provided, and the fan 313 is connected to the middle of the air duct 311. The provision of a single fan 313 is suitable for a small ironing device 3 or an ironing device 3 that gently absorbs clothing. Optionally, a first fan housing 334 is provided protruding outward from one side of the housing 33. The first fan housing 334 is connected to the housing 33, and the fan 313 is disposed within the first fan housing 334. An exhaust vent is provided at the bottom or rear side of the first fan housing 334, and air is discharged through the exhaust vent.

[0054] In other possible implementations, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, there is at least one fan 313, which is arranged at the end of the air duct 311 and is communicated with the ends of the air duct 311. Preferably, two fans 313 can be provided, and the two fans 313 are preferably provided at both ends of the air duct 311. The provision of two fans 313 is suitable for a large-volume ironing device 3 or an ironing device 3 suitable for strong adsorption of clothes. Optionally, as Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the fan 313 can be directly installed in the housing 33 and placed at the end of the housing 33. The air duct 311 extends to the air intake of the fan 313. The two ends of the housing 33 are respectively provided with exhaust ports, and the air flow is discharged through the exhaust ports. Or, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the fan 313 is fixed to the end of the housing 33, the air duct 311 extends to the end inside the housing 33, and a second fan housing 335 is provided on the outer side of the fan 313. The second fan housing 335 is connected to the housing 33. An exhaust port is provided on the end surface of the second fan housing 335, and the air flow is discharged through the exhaust port.

[0055] Regarding the arrangement of the fan 313 in the two aforementioned embodiments, if multiple fans 313 are provided, the multiple fans 313 can be dispersed or stacked, and the specific arrangement is not specifically limited. The exhaust direction of the fan 313 can also be in any direction, and is not specifically limited. The fan 313 can be an axial flow fan, a centrifugal fan, a high-speed fan, a blower fan, or a variable frequency fan, and the type of the fan 313 is not specifically limited herein.

[0056] In addition, a filter can be installed at the air inlet of the fan 313 to filter out hair, debris, impurities, etc., thereby protecting the fan 313. Alternatively, the filter can be installed on the housing 33 and placed at the adsorption hole 312. The filter can be removable for easy cleaning and replacement. Specifically, the structure of the removable connection between the filter and the housing 33 is not specifically limited herein.

[0057] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, a plug-in slot 3321 is provided on the side of the cover plate 332 facing the interior of the housing 33. The plug-in slot 3321 is arranged around the steam hole 333. One end of the ironing unit 32, which is provided with the steam outlet 321, is plugged into the plug-in slot 3321 to meet sealing requirements and prevent steam from leaking into the air duct 311. The plug-in slot 3321 and the ironing unit 32 have a large plug-in area, which provides a good sealing effect. Optionally, a sealing seat 3322 is provided on the side of the cover plate 332 facing the interior of the housing 33, which protrudes around the steam hole 333. The sealing seat 3322 is provided with the plug-in slot 3321. This can increase the depth of the plug-in slot 3321, thereby increasing the plug-in area between the plug-in slot 3321 and the ironing unit 32 and improving the sealing effect.

[0058] Optionally, a first seal is provided in the plug-in slot 3321 or on the ironing unit 32. When the ironing unit 32 is plugged into the plug-in slot 3321, the first seal is provided between the inner side wall of the plug-in slot 3321 and the ironing unit 32, further improving the sealing performance of the connection between the ironing unit 32 and the cover plate 332.

[0059] In one embodiment, the cover plate 332 comprises a first plate and a second plate. The first plate has an elongated hole in the middle, and the second plate covers the hole. The second plate is detachably connected to the first plate. Adsorption holes 312 are provided on the first plate, and steam holes 333 are provided on the second plate. The split structure of the cover plate 332 enables rapid and low-cost iteration.

[0060] In another practicable manner, the cover plate 332 is an integrated structure and is not provided in separate parts, thereby reducing the number of components provided and increasing the service life of the ironing device 3 .

[0061] In order to adapt to clothes of different widths, the length of the cover plate 332 is set to 150mm-600mm, and the adsorption holes 312 and steam holes 333 can be adequately provided, which is suitable for ironing clothes of different widths. For example, taking adult clothes as an example, the length of the cover plate 332 is set to 300mm, and the clothes can be ironed by pulling them up and down twice. Or the length of the cover plate 332 is set to 600mm, and the clothes can be ironed by pulling them up and down once. Figure 1 、 Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the cover plate 332 is provided with at least one row of steam holes 333, each row of steam holes 333 being arranged along the length of the cover plate 332. Clothes are adsorbed by the adsorption holes 312, which are arranged on opposite sides of the steam outlet 321, flattening the clothes and improving the fit between the clothes and the steam outlet 321. Providing multiple rows of steam holes 333 can improve ironing efficiency and results.

[0062] In some embodiments, a shielding plate may be provided on the cover plate 332. The shielding plate is slidably mounted on the cover plate 332. By adjusting the shielding plate's position, the shielding plate can block steam holes 333 at different locations, allowing the user to select a specific area for ironing, thereby increasing the flexibility of the ironing machine. The connection structure between the shielding plate and the cover plate 332 is conventional and will not be described in detail here.

[0063] In some possible implementations, such as Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, in the width direction of the cover plate 332, a plurality of adsorption holes 312 are provided on opposite sides of the steam outlet 321. The adsorption holes 312 are long strip holes. The plurality of adsorption holes 312 are arranged along the length direction of the cover plate 332 to increase the adsorption area and improve the uniformity of the adsorption force distribution, thereby improving the ironing effect.

[0064] Alternatively, as Figure 8 As shown, each adsorption hole 312 extends along the width direction of the cover plate 332 , which facilitates the processing of the adsorption hole 312 .

[0065] Alternatively, as Figure 9As shown, with the midline of the cover plate 332 in the longitudinal direction as the center of symmetry, each row of suction holes 312 is symmetrically and obliquely arranged relative to the midline, with the angle between the suction holes 312 and the midline being greater than or equal to 10° and less than or equal to 80°. The oblique arrangement of the suction holes 312 improves the suction effect of clothing, allowing the clothing to be fully spread out, thereby improving the ironing effect. Preferably, the angle between the suction holes 312 and the midline can be 10°, 15°, 20°, 25°, 30°, 35°, 40°, 45°, 50°, 55°, 60°, 65°, 70°, 75°, or 80°.

[0066] Alternatively, as Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, each adsorption hole 312 extends along the length direction of the cover plate 332. While achieving the same adsorption effect, the number of adsorption holes 312 can be reduced, which facilitates processing.

[0067] Alternatively, as Figure 11 As shown, the cover plate 332 has suction holes 312 at both ends in the longitudinal direction. The suction holes 312 extend along the width of the cover plate 332, further improving the adsorption effect on the clothes. The suction holes 312 are arranged circumferentially around the steam outlet 321, which can fully unfold the clothes and improve the ironing effect. In some other possible implementations, the suction holes 312 at both ends of the cover plate 332 in the longitudinal direction can extend horizontally or obliquely along the length of the cover plate 332, and multiple suction holes 312 can be arranged at intervals in the width direction, which is not specifically limited here. The arrangement of the suction holes 312 described above can be achieved by providing multiple suction holes 312 on opposite sides of the steam outlet 321 in the width direction of the cover plate 332, which is not described in detail here.

[0068] In the length direction of the cover plate 332 , adsorption holes 312 are provided at opposite ends of the steam outlet 321 . The adsorption holes 312 may be circular holes or elongated holes, which are not specifically limited here.

[0069] like Figure 12 As shown, in other possible implementations, a plurality of adsorption holes 312 are provided on opposite sides of the steam outlet 321 in the width direction of the cover plate 332. The adsorption holes 312 are circular holes and are arranged along the length direction of the cover plate 332. Circular holes facilitate processing and can increase the density of the adsorption holes 312, thereby improving the ironing effect.

[0070] In order to increase the density of the adsorption holes 312, the adsorption holes 312 can be staggered. For example, multiple columns of adsorption holes 312 are arranged along the length direction of the cover plate 332, and at least one adsorption hole 312 is arranged in each column along the width direction of the cover plate 332. For example, two adsorption holes 312 are arranged in the first column, and one adsorption hole 312 is arranged in the second column. The adsorption holes 312 in the second column are placed in the middle of the two adsorption holes 312 in the first column, and so on, to achieve a staggered arrangement of the adsorption holes 312.

[0071] Optionally, the diameter of the adsorption hole 312 is 2 mm to 8 mm. Specifically, the diameter of the adsorption hole 312 can be 2 mm, 3 mm, 4 mm, 5 mm, 6 mm, 7 mm or 8 mm, which is not specifically limited here.

[0072] In other possible implementations, such as Figure 13 As shown, the adsorption holes 312 are arranged around the steam outlet 321, which has a good adsorption effect on clothes, thereby improving the ironing effect. The adsorption holes 312 can be circular holes or elongated holes, which are not specifically limited here.

[0073] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the ironing unit 32 includes an ironing base 322, which is provided with an ironing cavity 323, a steam outlet 321, and a connecting pipe 324. The steam outlet 321 and the connecting pipe 324 are respectively connected to the ironing cavity 323, and the connecting pipe 324 is detachably connected to the steam pipe 4. Steam in the steam pipe 4 enters the ironing cavity 323 and is then discharged through the steam outlet 321. Optionally, a side wall of the ironing cavity 323 is provided through to form the steam outlet 321. Alternatively, a plurality of steam outlets 321 are provided at intervals along a side wall of the ironing cavity 323.

[0074] Alternatively, as Figure 14 and Figure 15 As shown, the outer wall of one of the connecting pipe 324 and the steam pipe 4 is circumferentially provided with a plurality of engaging blocks 325, and the inner wall of the other of the connecting pipe 324 and the steam pipe 4 is provided with a plurality of engaging grooves 326. The engaging grooves 326 are arranged one-to-one with the engaging blocks 325. The engaging grooves 326 extend circumferentially along the inner wall, and the first sidewall of the engaging grooves 326 is provided with an opening for the engaging blocks 325 to enter. A stopper 327 is protruded from the inner side of the first sidewall of the engaging groove 326. The distance between the stopper 327 and the second sidewall of the engaging groove 326 is sufficient for the engaging block 325 to pass through. The space between the stopper 327 and the third sidewall of the engaging groove 326 is used to accommodate and limit the stopper 327. Rotating the steam pipe 4 circumferentially can separate the steam pipe 4 from the connecting pipe 324, thereby enabling quick installation and removal of the ironing device 3.

[0075] A second sealing member 328 is sleeved on the outer side of the connecting pipe 324. After the steam pipe 4 is connected to the connecting pipe 324, the second sealing member 328 is pressed against the end face of the steam pipe 4 to achieve a sealed connection between the steam pipe 4 and the connecting pipe 324, thereby preventing steam from being discharged from the connection between the steam pipe 4 and the connecting pipe 324.

[0076] In some embodiments, as Figure 16 As shown, the ironing device 3 also includes a heating assembly 34 connected to the ironing base 322 and configured to heat the steam within the ironing cavity 323. The heating assembly 34 provides secondary heating of the steam within the ironing cavity 323; the primary heating occurs when components within the base 1 heat and evaporate the water. This satisfies the requirement for rapid steam production, achieving instant steam production. The structure of the heating assembly 34 is conventional and is not specifically limited here. Furthermore, in other possible implementations, the heating assembly 34 can be located within the ironing cavity 323.

A steam generator is housed within the base 1, and a support assembly 2 is mounted on the base 1. The ironing device 3 is connected to the support assembly 2 and can be placed outside of the ironing device 3 to hold clothing.

[0080] In the ironing machine provided in this embodiment, the ironing device 3 is connected to the base 1 through the support assembly 2. Clothes can be put on the outside of the ironing device 3, with the steam outlet 321 facing the clothes. The clothes can be ironed by moving them. There is no need to hold the ironing device 3, and the user can just use both hands to arrange the clothes. There is no need to set up an additional support frame for supporting the clothes, which simplifies the use and operation steps of ironing and improves the efficiency of ironing. The ironing device 3 includes a suction unit 31. The suction unit 31 can suck the clothes so that the clothes fit with the steam outlet 321, replacing the support frame to stretch the clothes, saving the operation of placing the clothes on the support frame for fixing before ironing. In addition, this embodiment uses the softness of the clothes to set the suction unit 31, which can cause the clothes to deform and fit better with the steam outlet 321, thereby improving the ironing effect of the clothes.

[0081] The structure of the steam generator is prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0082] In some embodiments, as Figure 17 and Figure 18 As shown, the ironing device 3 is provided with at least one socket 35, which has a socket hole. The support assembly 2 includes at least one support rod 21, one end of which is connected to the base 1, and the other end of which is removably inserted into the socket hole. The ironing device 3 and support assembly 2 are detachable, making it easy to transport and replace the ironing device 3.

[0083] Alternatively, as Figure 17 As shown, a plurality of support rods 21 are provided, for example, 2, 3 or 4, which can be arranged according to the length of the ironing device 3 to ensure the stability of the installation of the ironing device 3.

[0084] The support rod 21 includes a first rod portion 211 and a second rod portion 212. One end of the first rod portion 211 is connected to the base 1, and the other end of the first rod portion 211 is hinged to one end of the second rod portion 212. The other end of the second rod portion 212 is detachably inserted into the socket. The first rod portion 211 is a telescopic rod structure. By adjusting the length of the first rod portion 211, the height of the ironing device 3 can be adjusted, thereby being suitable for users of different heights. A second rod portion 212 is provided, and the second rod portion 212 is hinged to the first rod portion 211. The ironing device 3 is connected to the second rod portion 212. By adjusting the angle between the second rod portion 212 and the first rod portion 211, the angle of the ironing device 3 can be adjusted to suit the usage habits and usage scenarios of different users, thereby improving user comfort and flexibility. The specific hinged structure of the first rod portion 211 and the second rod portion 212 is prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0085] In some embodiments, as Figure 17 As shown, the support assembly 2 and the steam pipe 4 are two independent structures. In other embodiments, such as Figure 18 As shown, the support assembly 2 includes at least one support rod 21, which is a hollow rod structure. The steam pipe 4 can be passed through the support rod 21, or the hollow structure of at least one support rod 21 forms the steam pipe 4. At least one plug hole is connected to the air duct 311. One end of the support rod 21 is plugged into the plug hole and connected to the air duct 311. The other end of the support rod 21 is connected to the steam generator, thereby connecting the steam generator and the ironing unit 32.

[0086] In some embodiments, the ironing device 3 is detachably connected to the support assembly 2. For example, the ironing machine may further include a handle that is detachably connected to the socket 35 of the ironing device 3, allowing the user to hold the ironing device 3 while ironing clothes. Alternatively, the socket 35 of the ironing device 3 is universal, and the ironing device 3 can be connected to a long pole or other component to function as a floor scrubber. Alternatively, the ironing device 3 can be mounted on a floor-standing column to function as an air purifier, humidifier, or the like.

[0087] When using the ironing machine provided in the present application, the clothes can be placed on the outside of the ironing device 3, or the clothes can be placed close to the outside of the ironing device 3. The adsorption unit 31 adsorbs the clothes so that the clothes fit with the steam outlet 321. The clothes can be ironed by pulling them, freeing the user's hands from holding the ironing device 3 in the traditional way. The user can focus on smoothing the clothes, making the ironing process simpler and more efficient.
