Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of ironing equipment, and in particular to a handheld electric heating steam iron. Background Technology

[0002] As people's living standards improve, their demands for the smoothness and aesthetics of clothing are also increasing, highlighting the growing importance of ironing tools in daily life. Ironing tools greatly facilitate the ironing of various types of clothing and fabrics, improving the efficiency and quality of clothing organization and satisfying people's pursuit of a high-quality life.

[0003] Traditional steam pipes are mostly simple, straight-tube structures, with steam delivered directly to the soleplate of the iron for ironing. However, this straight-tube design results in rapid steam flow. This rapid flow makes it difficult to create a stable and even distribution of steam on the soleplate. When the steam reaches the surface of the clothing, it can easily lead to localized overheating or insufficient steam, resulting in poor ironing performance and difficulty in completely smoothing out wrinkles. This is especially true for thicker fabrics or deeply wrinkled garments, where ironing efficiency and quality are significantly reduced. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to improve the traditional steam channel with its straight cylindrical structure, which leads to uneven heating at the bottom of the iron and thus affects the ironing effect, this application provides a handheld electric heating steam iron.

[0005] The present application provides a handheld electric heating steam iron using the following technical solution:

[0006] A handheld electric heating steam iron includes an iron body and a labyrinthine steam channel disposed at the bottom of the iron body. The labyrinthine steam channel includes a gathering chamber, a bottom flow channel, a middle guide channel, and an edge distribution channel. The bottom flow channel is disposed around the edge of the gathering chamber. The middle guide channel is disposed between the bottom flow channel and the edge distribution channel. The edge distribution channel is disposed around the bottom edge of the iron body. A steam pipe is connected to the iron body and is connected to the gathering chamber. A base plate is fixed to the bottom of the iron body by bolts, and a steam outlet is opened on the base plate.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution and utilizing the labyrinthine steam channel structure design, the original rapid flow of steam is altered. Steam enters the gathering chamber through the steam pipe, flows sequentially through the bottom flow channel, the middle guide channel, and the edge distribution channel, and finally exits through the steam outlet. This ensures that steam is distributed throughout the bottom of the iron body, increasing the steam flow length and achieving uniform heating of the soleplate. This improves the problem of uneven heating at the bottom of the iron, enhances ironing performance, and more effectively smooths out wrinkles in clothing, resulting in even ironing.

[0008] Optionally, the gathering cavity is triangularly arranged at the bottom of the iron body, and a protrusion is provided on the inner wall edge of the gathering cavity, the protrusion forming a step shape with the gathering cavity.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the bottom of the iron body is provided with a triangular gathering cavity and an inner wall edge with protrusions forming a stepped shape, which can buffer the steam entering the gathering cavity and slow down the steam flow rate.

[0010] Optionally, the bottom flow channel is annularly arranged around the outer wall edge of the first cavity.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the bottom flow channel is arranged in a ring shape around the edge of the outer wall of the collection cavity, which can change the flow path and speed of steam, avoid rapid steam flow, and thus form a stable and uniform steam distribution at the bottom plate.

[0012] Optionally, the intermediate flow channel includes a first channel and a second channel, the first channel and the second channel forming a wave shape, the first channel being connected to the bottom flow channel, and the second channel being connected to the edge distribution channel.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the first and second channels of the intermediate guide channel form a wave shape, which increases the steam flow time in the intermediate guide channel and further slows down the steam flow rate.

[0014] Optionally, the edge distribution channel includes a third channel and two fourth channels, with the two fourth channels respectively located at both ends of the third channel. The third channel and the two fourth channels form an A-shape distributed on the bottom edge of the iron body, and the third channel is connected to the second channel.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the edge distribution channel adopts an A-shaped distribution structure formed by the third channel and two fourth channels at the bottom edge of the iron body, so that steam can flow through the edge distribution channel to the edge of the iron body, increasing the heating area of ​​the soleplate and improving the smoothing effect on clothing wrinkles.

[0016] Optionally, a connecting shell is fixed to the iron body, a power cord is provided on the connecting shell, a handle is also provided on the connecting shell, a switch is provided on the handle, a heating mechanism is provided inside the iron body, and the switch is connected to the heating mechanism through the power cord.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the power cord provides circuit support for the heating mechanism, and the operation of the heating mechanism can be easily controlled by the switch, thereby realizing the power supply and heating control of the iron and providing the necessary heat for ironing.

[0018] Optionally, the heating mechanism includes a first mounting hole formed on the iron body, a heating tube disposed inside the first mounting hole, and the switch is connected to the heating tube via a power cord.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the heating element is installed in the first mounting hole of the iron body and controlled by the switch through the power cord, so that the steam containing moisture is completely heated and vaporized in the iron body, and the steam flowing into the gathering chamber is high-temperature steam without moisture, thereby achieving rapid and uniform heating of the soleplate, shortening the time required for ironing clothes, and further improving the ironing effect on clothes.

[0020] Optionally, the iron body is further provided with a temperature control mechanism, which includes a second mounting hole on the iron body, a temperature sensor disposed in the second mounting hole, and the temperature sensor being electrically connected to a switch.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the temperature sensor is placed in the second mounting hole and electrically connected to the switch. When the temperature of the iron body is higher than the preset temperature, the switch is controlled by the temperature sensor to automatically adjust the power of the heating element, so as to ensure the normal operating temperature of the iron and realize the control of the iron temperature, avoiding the ironing effect due to excessive temperature.

[0022] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0023] 1. By setting a labyrinthine steam channel at the bottom of the iron body, the original rapid flow of steam is changed, the flow length of steam is increased, and the soleplate is heated evenly, thereby improving the problem of uneven heating at the bottom of the iron and improving the ironing effect.

[0024] 2. By setting up a heating mechanism, the steam containing moisture is completely heated and vaporized inside the iron body, so that the steam flowing into the collection chamber is high-temperature steam without moisture, thus achieving rapid heating of the iron soleplate;

[0025] 3. By electrically connecting the temperature sensor to the switch, the temperature sensor can promptly sense the temperature inside the iron and transmit the signal to the control switch.

[0031] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-3 This application will be described in further detail.

[0032] This application discloses a handheld electric heating steam iron.

[0033] Reference Figure 1A handheld electric steam iron includes an iron body 1, a connecting shell 8 fixed to the iron body 1, and a soleplate 7 fixed to the bottom of the iron body 1 by multiple bolts. Multiple steam outlets are located below the soleplate 7. The iron body 1 is die-cast from aluminum, which provides better heat conduction and contributes to the iron's lightweight design. The sides of the iron body 1 are designed with ultra-thin edges, only 8mm thick, making it easy to use in narrow spaces or crevices, thus improving the iron's practicality. The soleplate 7 is made of stainless steel, making the iron more wear-resistant, increasing its lifespan, and providing a smoother ironing experience.

[0034] Reference Figure 1 A steam pipe 6 is connected to the iron body 1, and steam containing moisture enters the interior of the iron body 1 through the steam pipe 6. A power cord 9 is provided on the connecting shell 8, and a handle 10 is also fixed on the connecting shell 8, with a switch 11 installed on the handle 10.

[0035] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The iron body 1 contains a heating mechanism 12 and a temperature control mechanism 13. A power cord 9 provides electrical support for the heating mechanism 12, ensuring its operation. The operation switch 11 controls the start and stop of the heating mechanism 12. This heating mechanism 12 is used to heat steam containing moisture and completely vaporize it into high-temperature steam free of moisture.

[0036] The switch 11 on the handle 10 is electrically connected to the temperature control mechanism 13. The temperature control mechanism 13 can also detect the temperature inside the iron body 1. If the temperature inside the iron body 1 is higher than the preset temperature value, the temperature control mechanism 13 sends a signal to the switch 11, and the switch 11 automatically adjusts the heating mechanism 12 to ensure the normal operating temperature of the iron.

[0037] Reference Figure 2 The heating mechanism 12 includes a first mounting hole 121 and a heating element 122 formed on the iron body 1. The heating element 122 is installed inside the first mounting hole 121, and the control switch 11 is connected to the heating element 122 via a power cord 9. The size and shape of the first mounting hole 121 must match the heating element 122 to ensure stable installation of the heating element 122. Moreover, the heating element 122 can be quickly replaced if it malfunctions, preventing the entire iron body from being scrapped due to damage to the heating element 122.

[0038] Reference Figure 2The temperature control mechanism 13 includes a second mounting hole 131 on the iron body 1 and a temperature sensor 132. The temperature sensor 132 is installed inside the second mounting hole 131 and is electrically connected to the control switch 11. The temperature sensor 132 can promptly sense the temperature inside the iron body 1 and transmit the signal to the control switch 11. When the temperature is too high, the control switch 11 automatically adjusts the power of the heating element 122 to ensure the iron's normal operating temperature.

[0039] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 A labyrinthine steam channel is provided at the bottom of the iron body 1, and one end of the steam pipe 6 is connected to the labyrinthine steam channel. Steam containing moisture is completely vaporized into high-temperature steam without moisture after being heated by the heating mechanism 12. Then, the high-temperature steam is dispersed to various positions on the bottom plate 7 through the labyrinthine steam channel. The labyrinthine steam channel increases the flow length of the high-temperature steam, cutting the concentrated high-temperature steam into multiple fine streams and dispersing them to various positions on the bottom plate 7, achieving uniform heating of the bottom plate 7. This improves the problem of uneven heating at the bottom of the iron, enhances the ironing effect, and more effectively smooths out wrinkles in clothing, thus achieving a uniform ironing effect.

[0040] Reference Figure 3 The labyrinthine steam channel includes a collection chamber 2, a bottom flow channel 3, a middle guide channel 4, and an edge distribution channel 5. High-temperature steam first enters the collection chamber 2 and then flows through the bottom flow channel 3, the middle guide channel 4, and the edge distribution channel 5 in sequence.

[0041] Reference Figure 3 The collecting cavity 2 is triangularly positioned at the bottom of the iron body 1, with protrusions 21 on its inner wall edge, forming a stepped shape with the collecting cavity 2. This stepped design alters the steam flow direction, preventing excessive steam concentration. The bottom flow channel 3 is annularly positioned around the outer edge of the collecting cavity 2. This annular design allows steam to flow evenly around the collecting cavity 2, further dispersing the steam.

[0042] Reference Figure 3 The intermediate guide channel 4 includes a first channel 41 and a second channel 42, which form a wave-like structure. This wave-like structure can continuously change the direction of steam flow, slow down the steam flow rate, and promote more uniform steam flow to the edge.

[0043] Reference Figure 3The edge distribution channel 5 includes a third channel 51 and two fourth channels 52. The two fourth channels 52 are respectively located at both ends of the third channel 51. The third channel 51 and the two fourth channels 52 form an A-shape distribution on the bottom edge of the iron body 1. The A-shape distribution can make the steam evenly cover the bottom edge of the iron, ensuring that there is sufficient steam throughout the bottom of the iron.

[0044] When high-temperature steam enters the gathering chamber 2, it first gathers there, then its flow direction is changed by the protrusions 21 and steps before entering the bottom flow channel 3. Next, it is further dispersed through the wavy path of the central guide channel 4, and finally evenly covers the bottom of the iron through the edge distribution channel 5. The labyrinthine steam channel cuts the concentrated high-temperature steam flow into multiple fine streams, distributing them to various locations on the bottom plate 7, and flowing out from the steam outlet of the bottom plate 7, achieving uniform heating of the bottom plate 7. This improves the problem of uneven heating at the bottom of the iron, enhances the ironing effect, and more effectively smooths out wrinkles in clothing, thus achieving a uniform ironing effect.

[0045] The implementation principle of a handheld electric steam iron according to an embodiment of this application is as follows: This handheld electric steam iron, through its labyrinthine steam channel design, changes the traditional straight-tube steam channel's rapid steam flow mode. The heating mechanism 12 provides heat for steam generation, causing the moisture-laden steam to completely vaporize into moisture-free high-temperature steam. The unique shape and combination of each part of the labyrinthine steam channel lengthens the flow path of the high-temperature steam and slows its flow rate, thus allowing the high-temperature steam to be evenly distributed on the soleplate 7, greatly improving the ironing effect. Furthermore, the temperature control mechanism 13 ensures the iron operates at a safe and suitable temperature. Compared to traditional irons, this represents a significant improvement over existing technology, enhancing the product's practicality and functionality, and meeting people's demand for high-quality ironing.
