It is mainly used for ironing clothes, curtains, bed sheets, and other textiles, making them smooth and flat. Garment steamers do not require an ironing board, are easy to operate, and save time and energy.

[0003] Currently, when the steam in the steam generation chamber is released, some liquid in the chamber may not be fully heated by the heating element, thus failing to form steam. This unheated liquid will overflow, affecting the functionality of the garment steamer, and needs to be improved. Utility Model Content

[0004] The present invention aims to provide a steaming head for a garment steamer to solve the problem mentioned in the background art where, when steam is released from the steam generation chamber, some liquid in the steam generation chamber is occasionally not fully heated by the heating element and thus fails to form steam, causing the unheated liquid to overflow and affecting the function of the garment steamer.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the technical problem is as follows: a steaming head for a garment steamer, comprising a cavity shell, a heating element, and a water-absorbing element; the cavity shell is provided with a steam generating chamber, the heating element is disposed in the steam generating chamber, the cavity shell is provided with a steam outlet groove, the steam outlet groove has a steam outlet communicating with the steam generating chamber, and the water-absorbing element is disposed between the steam outlet groove and the steam outlet.

[0006] In some embodiments, the middle of the steam outlet channel is provided with a plurality of abutments in a horizontal straight line, and the plurality of abutments form a locking position with the inner sidewall of the steam outlet channel located on one side of the steam outlet. The water suction element is locked in the locking position and covers the steam outlet.

[0007] In some embodiments, a steam outlet shell is fixed on the cavity shell, the steam outlet shell is provided with a plurality of steam outlet holes, the steam outlet shell covers the steam outlet groove, and the plurality of steam outlet holes on the steam outlet shell are all connected to the steam outlet groove.

[0008] In some embodiments, the cavity shell is installed inside a heat insulation shell, and the heat insulation shell has the same number of openings as the steam outlet, with each opening corresponding to each steam outlet.

[0009] In some embodiments, the heating element is one or a combination of heating wire, heating tube, heating mesh and heating plate.

[0010] In some embodiments, the absorbent element is made of an absorbent material.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0012] In this invention, the liquid in the steam generating chamber is heated by a heating element to generate steam. The steam in the steam generating chamber is then released into the steam outlet through the steam outlet, and the steam outlet further releases the steam to the outside to steam textile products. During the process of steam being released from the steam generating chamber into the steam outlet, occasionally some liquid in the steam generating chamber may not be fully heated by the heating element and thus fail to form steam. This unsteamed liquid will overflow from the steam outlet. The water-absorbing element between the steam outlet and the steam outlet can absorb this unsteamed liquid, and the water-absorbing element is permeable, allowing steam from the steam generating chamber to penetrate and be released into the steam outlet. After absorbing the liquid, the water-absorbing element becomes wet. Because the heating element in the steam generating chamber generates steam, the heat from heating the liquid raises the chamber shell to a certain temperature. This temperature evaporates the liquid absorbed by the water-absorbing element, causing the water-absorbing element to dry and continue absorbing the unsteamed liquid. In this invention, by placing the water-absorbing component between the steam outlet and the steam outlet, the liquid that overflows from the steam outlet but has not yet formed steam can be absorbed, preventing the overflowing liquid from affecting the function of the steamer head. This design has the advantages of high efficiency and practicality. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] Furthermore, in this utility model, descriptions involving "first," "second," etc., are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of those features.

[0022] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 5 As shown, Figure 1 A three-dimensional structural diagram of the ironing head 100 of a garment steamer; Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the split structure of the ironing head 100 of the garment steamer; Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the cavity shell 20 in its first split state; Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the second split state of the cavity shell 20; Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the cavity shell 20 in its third split state.

[0023] This utility model provides the following technical solution: a steaming head 100 for a garment steamer, comprising a cavity shell 20, a heating element 30, and a water-absorbing element 40; the cavity shell 20 is provided with a steam generating chamber 201, the heating element 30 is disposed in the steam generating chamber 201, the cavity shell 20 is provided with a steam outlet 202, the steam outlet 202 has a steam outlet 203 communicating with the steam generating chamber 201, and the water-absorbing element 30 is provided between the steam outlet 202 and the steam outlet 203.

[0024] In the garment steamer head 100 provided in this embodiment, the liquid in the steam generating chamber 201 is heated by the heating element 30 to generate steam in the steam generating chamber 201. The steam in the steam generating chamber 201 is then released into the steam outlet 202 through the steam outlet 203, and then the steam outlet 202 releases the steam to the outside to steam the textile products. During the process of steam being released from the steam generating chamber 201 into the steam outlet 202 through the steam outlet 203, occasionally some liquid in the steam generating chamber 201 may not be fully heated by the heating element 30 and thus fail to form steam. This unsteamed liquid will overflow from the steam outlet 203, and the water-absorbing element 30 between the steam outlet 202 and the steam outlet 203 can absorb the unsteamed liquid. The water-absorbing element 30 is also permeable, allowing the steam in the steam generating chamber 201 to penetrate and be released into the steam outlet 202. After absorbing liquid, the absorbent element 40 becomes wet. When the heating element 30 in the steam generating chamber 201 heats the liquid to generate steam, the heat causes the chamber shell 20 to become hot. This hot temperature evaporates the liquid absorbed by the absorbent element 40, causing it to dry out and allowing for the continuous absorption of liquid that has not yet formed steam. In this invention, by positioning the absorbent element 40 between the steam outlet 202 and the steam outlet 203, it can absorb any liquid overflowing from the steam outlet 203 that has not yet formed steam, preventing the overflowing liquid from affecting the function of the steamer head 100. This design offers the advantages of high efficiency and practicality.

[0025] In some embodiments, a plurality of abutments 204 are provided in a horizontal straight line in the middle of the steam outlet 202. A snap-fit ​​position 205 is formed between the plurality of abutments 204 and the inner sidewall of the steam outlet 202 located on one side of the steam outlet 203. The water suction member 40 is snapped into the snap-fit ​​position 205 and covers the steam outlet 203.

[0026] In practical implementation: the water-absorbing component 40, when snapped into the snap-fit ​​position 205, can cover the steam outlet 203. Thus, the water-absorbing component 40 can absorb the liquid that overflows from the steam outlet 203 before steam formation, and also allows the steam generated in the steam generation chamber 201 to penetrate and dissipate into the steam outlet 202. This arrangement ensures that the water-absorbing component 40 can effectively snap into the steam outlet 202 to absorb the liquid that overflows from the steam outlet 203 before steam formation.

[0027] In some embodiments, a steam outlet shell 50 is fixed on the cavity shell 20. The steam outlet shell 50 is provided with a plurality of steam outlet holes 501. The steam outlet shell 50 covers the steam outlet groove 202, and the plurality of steam outlet holes 501 on the steam outlet shell 50 are all connected to the steam outlet groove 202.

[0028] In practice: the steam generated in the steam generating chamber 201 is released into the steam outlet 202 through the steam outlet 203. Then, the steam in the steam outlet 202 is released to the outside through the steam outlet holes 501 on the steam outlet shell 50 to steam the textile products. With this arrangement, the steam generated in the steam generating chamber 201 can be effectively released to the outside to steam the textile products.

[0029] In some embodiments, the cavity shell 20 is installed inside a heat insulation shell 10, and the heat insulation shell 10 has the same number of openings 101 as the steam outlet 501, with each opening 101 corresponding to each steam outlet 501.

[0030] In specific implementation: the cavity shell 20 is installed inside the heat insulation shell 10, so that the high-temperature cavity shell 20 is prevented from directly contacting the textile products, thereby preventing the cavity shell 20 from scalding the textile products; the vent holes 101 on the heat insulation shell 10 are used to allow the steam outlet holes 501 on the steam shell 50 to dissipate steam to the outside. Through this arrangement, by installing the cavity shell 20 in the heat insulation shell 10, the high-temperature cavity shell 20 is prevented from directly contacting the textile products during steaming operation.

[0031] In some embodiments, the heating element 30 is configured as one or a combination of heating wire, heating tube, heating mesh and heating plate.

[0032] In some embodiments, the absorbent element 40 is made of an absorbent material. This absorbent material may be a material that has both absorbency and permeability, such as absorbent cotton.

[0033] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this utility model is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or basic characteristics of this utility model. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-limiting in all respects. The scope of this utility model is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description, and thus all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims are intended to be included within this utility model. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.

[0034] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution.
