Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electric irons, and more particularly to a steam uniform spraying component for a handheld electric iron. Background Technology
[0002] An electric iron is a household electrical appliance used to iron clothes. It mainly uses heat and humidification to smooth out wrinkles on clothes, restoring them to a smooth and beautiful appearance.
[0003] Currently, Chinese patent CN213507722U discloses an electric iron and its assembly structure. By setting fixed columns and assembly parts in correspondence, the outer shell and the isolation cover can be quickly aligned and assembled, which facilitates the assembly of the outer shell and the main body of the electric iron. This is beneficial to improving the production efficiency of the electric iron and facilitating the subsequent disassembly and maintenance of the electric iron.
[0004] However, some existing handheld irons lack protective structures for the steam venting holes at the bottom. Especially when ironing fuzzy clothing or fabrics that easily shed lint, lint can easily enter the steam venting holes as the iron slides. Over time, the lint can clog the holes, affecting the normal steam discharge and causing uneven steam distribution. This can negatively impact the ironing effect and may even lead to abnormal internal pressure and malfunctions. Utility Model Content
[0005] The main purpose of this invention is to provide a steam uniform spray component for a handheld electric iron, which aims to solve the problem that the steam uniform discharge holes at the bottom of some existing handheld electric irons do not have a protective structure. Especially when ironing some fuzzy clothes or fabrics that are prone to shedding lint, lint can easily enter the steam uniform discharge holes as the electric iron slides. Over time, the lint can easily clog the holes. Once the steam uniform discharge holes are blocked, it will affect the normal discharge of steam, making the steam distribution uneven, which will affect the ironing effect and may also cause abnormal internal pressure of the electric iron, resulting in malfunction.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention proposes a handheld electric iron steam uniform spraying assembly, which includes an electric iron body, a handle, a pipeline, a base plate and several exhaust holes. The bottom of the base plate is provided with a protective mechanism, and the front and rear sides of both sides of the base plate are fixedly connected with locking blocks.
[0007] The protective mechanism includes a protective cover, several exhaust ports, high-temperature resistant breathable dustproof cotton, and four buckles. The high-temperature resistant breathable dustproof cotton is movably installed on the inner wall of the protective cover. The exhaust ports are evenly distributed inside the protective cover. The buckles are fixedly connected to the protective cover on the side closest to the protective cover.
[0008] Preferably, the locking block is engaged inside the buckle, and both the locking block and the buckle have chamfered surfaces.
[0009] Preferably, a limiting block is fixedly connected to the surface of the card block, and a limiting groove is formed on the inner wall of the buckle. There are two limiting blocks and two limiting grooves, and the surface of the limiting block is in contact with the inner wall of the limiting groove.
[0010] Preferably, the buckle is made of a wear-resistant and elastic material.
[0011] Preferably, a sealing ring is fixedly connected to the top of the protective cover, and the top of the sealing ring is in close contact with the bottom of the base plate.
[0012] Preferably, pull plates are fixedly connected to both sides of the protective cover.
[0013] Preferably, the protective cover is made of aluminum alloy and the sealing ring is made of fluororubber.
[0014] In this utility model's technical solution, the protective cover is engaged with a buckle on the base plate. The buckle is made of wear-resistant elastic material. During installation, the buckle and the buckle surfaces are chamfered, allowing the buckle to smoothly engage with the buckle. Simultaneously, the limiting block on the buckle surface and the limiting groove on the inner wall of the buckle cooperate with each other, further enhancing the stability of the connection. Furthermore, the fluororubber sealing ring at the top of the protective cover is in close contact with the bottom of the base plate, not only providing a seal to prevent steam leakage but also preventing lint, dust, and other impurities from entering through gaps. During ironing, the high-temperature resistant, breathable, and dustproof cotton inside the protective cover plays a crucial role. It effectively blocks lint and other debris from entering the protective cover, thus preventing lint from entering the vent. This ensures unobstructed venting, maintains even steam spray, and reduces the likelihood of the iron's performance being affected by vent blockage. When it is necessary to adjust the vent and high-temperature resistant... When cleaning the breathable and dustproof cotton, since the protective cover is fixedly connected to pull plates on both sides, the operator can hold the pull plates and use the elasticity of the buckles to separate the buckles from the clips, thus easily removing the protective cover. After removal, the exhaust vents can be cleaned to remove any dirt that may be attached. At the same time, the high-temperature resistant breathable and dustproof cotton can be replaced or washed. After cleaning, the protective cover can be reinstalled on the bottom plate according to the installation steps, and it can continue to be used normally. This avoids the problem of some existing handheld irons where the steam evenly discharge holes at the bottom do not have a protective structure. Especially when ironing some fuzzy clothes or fabrics that are prone to shedding lint, lint can easily enter the steam evenly discharge holes as the iron slides. Over time, lint can easily clog the holes. Once the steam evenly discharge holes are blocked, it will affect the normal discharge of steam, causing uneven steam distribution, which will affect the ironing effect and may also cause abnormal internal pressure of the iron, resulting in malfunctions.

[0027] This utility model provides a steam uniform spray component for a handheld electric iron, which aims to solve the problem that the steam uniform discharge holes at the bottom of some existing handheld electric irons do not have a protective structure. Especially when ironing some fuzzy clothes or fabrics that are prone to shedding lint, lint can easily enter the steam uniform discharge holes as the electric iron slides. Over time, the lint can easily clog the holes. Once the steam uniform discharge holes are blocked, it will affect the normal discharge of steam, making the steam distribution uneven, thus affecting the ironing effect, and may also cause abnormal internal pressure of the electric iron, resulting in malfunction.
[0028] like Figure 1-5 As shown, the present invention provides a handheld electric iron steam uniform spraying assembly, including an electric iron body 1, a handle 2, a pipeline 3, a base plate 8 and several exhaust holes 9. A protective mechanism 4 is provided at the bottom of the base plate 8, and a locking block 5 is fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of both sides of the base plate 8.
[0029] The protective mechanism 4 includes a protective cover 401, several exhaust ports 402, high-temperature resistant breathable dustproof cotton 403, and four buckles 404. The high-temperature resistant breathable dustproof cotton 403 is movably disposed on the inner wall of the protective cover 401. The exhaust ports 402 are evenly distributed inside the protective cover 401. The buckles 404 are fixedly connected to the protective cover 401 on the side closest to the protective cover 401.
[0030] In the technical solution of this utility model, the protective cover 401 is engaged with the locking block 5 on the base plate 8 via a buckle 404. The buckle 404 is made of wear-resistant elastic material. During installation, since both the locking block 5 and the buckle 404 have chamfered surfaces, the buckle 404 can smoothly engage with the locking block 5. At the same time, the limiting block 7 on the surface of the locking block 5 and the limiting groove 10 on the inner wall of the buckle 404 cooperate with each other, further enhancing the stability of the connection. In addition, the fluororubber sealing ring 11 at the top of the protective cover 401 is tightly connected to the bottom of the base plate 8. The protective cover 401 not only acts as a seal to prevent steam leakage, but also prevents impurities such as lint and dust from entering through gaps. During ironing, the high-temperature resistant, breathable, and dustproof cotton 403 inside the protective cover 401 plays an important role. It effectively blocks lint and other debris from entering the protective cover 401, thus preventing lint from entering the exhaust vent 9. This ensures the exhaust vent 9 remains unobstructed, maintaining a uniform steam spray effect and reducing the possibility of the iron's performance being affected by blockage of the exhaust vent 9. When cleaning the air vent 402 and the high-temperature resistant breathable dustproof cotton 403, since the protective cover 401 is fixedly connected to both sides by pull plates 6, the operator can hold the pull plates 6 and use the elasticity of the buckles 404 to separate the buckles 404 from the clips 5, thereby easily removing the protective cover 401. After removal, the air vent 402 can be cleaned to remove any dirt that may be attached. At the same time, the high-temperature resistant breathable dustproof cotton 403 can be replaced or washed. After cleaning, the protective cover 401 can be reinstalled onto the base plate 8 according to the installation steps. It can continue to be used normally, avoiding the lack of protective structure in the steam evenly discharge holes at the bottom of some existing handheld irons. Especially when ironing some fuzzy clothes or fabrics that are prone to shedding lint, lint can easily enter the steam evenly discharge holes as the iron slides. Over time, the lint can easily clog the holes. Once the steam evenly discharge holes are blocked, it will affect the normal discharge of steam, making the steam distribution uneven, which will affect the ironing effect and may also cause abnormal internal pressure of the iron, resulting in malfunctions.
[0031] Please refer to the following: Figure 5 The locking block 5 is engaged inside the buckle 404, and both the locking block 5 and the buckle 404 have chamfered surfaces. In this embodiment, by having chamfered surfaces on both the locking block 5 and the buckle 404, the locking block 5 and the buckle 404 can be easily inserted together.
[0032] For further information, please continue to refer to [link / reference]. Figure 5 A limiting block 7 is fixedly connected to the surface of the locking block 5, and a limiting groove 10 is formed on the inner wall of the buckle 404. There are two limiting blocks 7 and two limiting grooves 10. The surface of the limiting block 7 is in contact with the inner wall of the limiting groove 10. In this embodiment, after the locking block 5 and the buckle 404 are inserted together, the limiting block 7 will contact the inner wall of the limiting groove 10, thereby limiting the locking block 5 and the buckle 404 together.
[0033] Please continue to refer to this. Figure 5 The buckle 404 is made of a wear-resistant and elastic material. In this embodiment, because the buckle 404 is made of a wear-resistant and elastic material, it is easy for the buckle 404 to deform, which facilitates the movement of the limiting block 7 into the interior of the limiting groove 10, and also gives the buckle 404 a certain degree of wear resistance.
[0034] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 5 A sealing ring 11 is fixedly connected to the top of the protective cover 401, and the top of the sealing ring 11 is in close contact with the bottom of the base plate 8. In this embodiment, after the locking block 5 and the buckle 404 are inserted and the limiting block 7 is used for limiting, the top of the sealing ring 11 will be in close contact with the bottom of the base plate 8, thus sealing the base plate 8 and the protective cover 401.
[0035] Additionally, please refer to Figure 4 Pull plates 6 are fixedly connected to both sides of the protective cover 401. In this embodiment, the protective cover 401 can be easily pulled and disassembled by holding the pull plates 6.
[0036] Please refer to Figure 4 The protective cover 401 is made of aluminum alloy, and the sealing ring 11 is made of fluororubber. In this embodiment, the aluminum alloy protective cover 401 can effectively conduct heat, and its surface can be polished smooth for easy contact ironing of clothing. The fluororubber sealing ring 11 has good high-temperature resistance, preventing high-temperature steam from affecting the sealing effect.
[0037] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made under the concept of the present utility model and using the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included in the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
