[0033] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that these descriptions are for the purpose of aiding understanding of this utility model, but do not constitute a limitation thereof. Furthermore, the technical features involved in the various embodiments of this utility model described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0034] like Figure 1-10 As shown, a steam mop includes a mop head 1 and a handle 2. A steam-connecting assembly is provided between the mop head 1 and the handle 2. The steam-connecting assembly includes a steam pipe 3, a connecting sleeve 4, and an adapter 5. The steam pipe 3 is detachably fitted inside the handle 2. The upper end of the steam pipe 3 is connected to a steam module (such as a steam cleaner) that is mounted on the handle 2 or externally. The lower end extends out of the handle 2 and is placed inside the connecting sleeve 4. The connecting sleeve 4 is located between the lower end of the handle 2 and the adapter 5. The connecting sleeve 4 rotates along the adapter 5. The adapter 5 is rotatably connected to the mop head 1. Steam channels are provided on the connecting sleeve 4, the adapter 5, and the mop head 1, and the steam channels are connected to the steam pipe 3.

[0035] This utility model of a steam mop has a simple structure. Through the design of the steam pipe 3, connecting sleeve 4 and adapter 5, the heated steam can pass directly from the steam pipe 3 through the steam channels formed between the various accessories, and finally be sprayed out from the bottom of the mop head 1. It eliminates the need for a silicone hose, ensuring the smooth flow of steam, improving the thermal efficiency of steam use, and thus improving the mop's performance.

[0036] Specifically, the steam pipe 3 is provided with a first limiting platform 301 and a second limiting platform 302 for locking inside the handle 2. The first limiting platform 301 is located at the top of the steam pipe 3, and two limiting blocks 303 are symmetrically arranged on the first limiting platform 301. The second limiting platform 302 is located below the steam pipe 3 and is locked at the lower opening of the handle 2, so that a section of the steam pipe 3 below the second limiting platform 302 extends out of the handle 2. Slider 304 is symmetrically arranged on the second limiting platform 302. The position of the limiting block 303 corresponds vertically, and the width of the limiting block 303 is greater than the width of the slider 304. The handle 2 is symmetrically provided with a sliding groove 201 for the slider 304 to move up and down. The top opening of the sliding groove 201 is designed in an inverted V-shape to lock the limiting block 303. Two elastic fasteners 305 are also symmetrically provided on the steam pipe 3. The elastic fasteners 305 are located above the second fixed platform 302. The handle 2 is provided with a fixing port 202 for locking the elastic fasteners 305.

[0037] The above design enables a detachable connection between the steam pipe 3 and the handle 2. The matching design of the limiting platform and the slide 201 facilitates the limiting of the steam pipe 3 into the handle 2 and its positioning in the corresponding position. In addition, the matching design of the elastic fastener 305 and the fixing port 202 can fix the steam pipe 3 in the handle 2, improving the stability of the assembly of the two.

[0038] Specifically, at least one third limiting platform 306 is also provided on the steam pipe 3. The third limiting platform 306 is located between the first limiting platform 301 and the second limiting platform 302, and the third limiting platform 306 has the same structure as the second limiting platform 302. This design allows for the selection of the number of third limiting platforms 306 to be added based on the actual length of the steam pipe 3, thereby improving the smoothness of installation and the stability of use between the steam pipe 3 and the handle 2.

[0039] Specifically, a connecting part 203 is formed at the lower end of the handle 2, and a connecting port 202 is located at the connecting part 203. A first connecting block 204 and a second connecting block 205 are provided on the outer wall of the connecting part 203. The connecting sleeve 4 includes an integrally formed sleeve 401 and a connecting seat 402, and the sleeve 401 and the connecting seat 402 communicate to form a steam channel. A connecting groove 403 is provided on the sleeve 401 corresponding to the first connecting block 204, and a connecting port 404 is provided corresponding to the second connecting block 205. The connecting seat 402 is connected to the adapter 5.

[0040] The above design facilitates the assembly and disassembly of the handle 2 and the connecting sleeve 4, improving operational convenience. A gap is formed on one side of the bottom of the sleeve 401, and spacers can be set at intervals in the gap to form a fan-like structure, which allows the steam in the sleeve 401 to be more effectively introduced into the connecting seat 402.

[0041] Specifically, the connecting seat 402 is provided with a connecting shaft 405 and two baffles 406, the adapter 5 is provided with a connecting hole 501, a steam passage cavity 502 and a set of connectors 503. The connecting hole 501 is located at the center of the steam passage cavity 502 for mounting the connecting shaft 405. The set of connectors 503 is symmetrically located on the outside of the adapter 5, and the connectors 503 communicate with the steam passage cavity 502 to form a steam channel. The connectors 503 are connected to the mop head 1, and the two baffles 406 move along the outer wall of the adapter 5.

[0042] The above design facilitates effective and stable installation between the connecting sleeve 4 and the adapter 5. The design of the steam cavity 502 on the adapter 5 allows the steam in the connecting seat 402 to accumulate in the steam cavity 502, and then be introduced into the mop head 1 through the connecting head 503. The connecting shaft 405 can be provided with spacers at intervals on the outer side near the connecting seat 402 to form a fan-like structure. This structure is located in the steam cavity 502, which allows the steam in the steam cavity 502 to be introduced into the mop head 1 more effectively.

[0043] Specifically, two mounting bases 101 are symmetrically arranged on the mop head 1. The upper side of each mounting base 101 has a mounting groove 102 for connecting a connector 503. A through hole 103 is provided within the mounting groove 102, forming a steam channel between the connector 503 and the through hole 103. This design facilitates the connection of the connector 503 to the mop head 1 and allows steam in the steam cavity 502 to more effectively enter the mounting base 101 and exit through the through hole 103.

[0044] Specifically, it also includes a protective cover 6, the upper end of which is connected to the lower end of the sleeve 401, and the protective cover 6 corresponds to the connecting seat 402, covering the other side of the adapter 5. With the above design, the protective cover 6 can cover the adapter 5, providing a certain degree of protection for the adapter 5, while also improving the overall integrity and aesthetics of the mop.

[0045] Specifically, an extension rod 7 is provided at the upper end of the handle 2, and a handle control device 8 is provided between the other end of the extension rod 7 and the separately external steam module. In the above design, the extension rod 7 and the handle 2 have the same structure and are equipped with the same steam-passing components. Multiple extension rods 7 can be added according to actual needs. The separately external steam module can be a steam cleaner. The handle control device mainly includes a handle housing, which is used to connect the handle 2 or the extension rod 7 to the steam cleaner. A controller can be designed on the handle housing to control the opening and closing of the mop, adjust the flow rate (steam speed), etc., to improve the ease of use of the mop.

[0046] It should be noted that when installing the handle 2, steam pipe 3, connecting sleeve 4, and adapter 5, sealing rings or other sealing accessories can be added to improve the connection stability between the accessories.

[0047] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the implementation methods and protection scope of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art should realize that any equivalent substitutions and obvious changes made based on the description and illustrations of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
