Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of garment steamer technology, and in particular to a garment steamer with a detachable suction component. Background Technology
[0002] Garment steamers work by using hot steam generated internally to contact clothes and fabrics, softening the fibers, and then smoothing the garments through actions such as "pulling," "pressing," and "spraying." Current garment steamers use a fan mechanism with suction ports on the steam brush to remove lint from the clothes. To prevent large fibers from entering the fan mechanism and affecting its normal operation, a filter is installed at the suction point. However, this filter is prone to clogging and difficult to clean, requiring the entire steam brush to be disassembled for cleaning, which is cumbersome. Utility Model Content
[0003] In view of this, the present invention addresses the deficiencies of the existing technology, and its main objective is to provide a garment steamer with a detachable suction component, an easy-to-clean filter plate, and an optimized heating area.

These embodiments are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of the present utility model.
[0033] It should be noted that when a component is said to be "fixed to" another component, it can be directly attached to the other component or there may be an intervening component. When a component is said to be "connected to" another component, it can be directly connected to the other component or there may be an intervening component.

[0034] Please see Figures 1 to 3 This utility model provides a garment steamer with a detachable suction component 32, characterized in that it includes a housing 1, a steam generator 4, a water tank 2, and a working panel 3; the steam generator 4 is disposed inside the housing 1, the water tank 2 is connected to the steam generator 4, and the water tank 2 is used to supply water to the steam generator 4; a water pump is provided at the bottom of the housing, and the water pump pumps the water in the water tank 2 to the steam generator 4;
[0035] The working panel 3 is disposed at the front end of the housing 1, and includes:
[0036] The heating element 31 is connected to the steam generator 4. A heating surface 311 is provided on the side facing away from the steam generator 4. An exhaust port 312 is provided on the heating surface 311. The exhaust port 312 communicates with the steam channel of the steam generator 4, and steam is ejected through the exhaust port 312. The steam generator 4 injects steam through the exhaust port 312, which is directly connected to the steam generator 4 and serves as a steam return chamber, thereby reducing energy loss.
[0037] The suction component 32 is detachably installed on the housing 1 and sleeved on the upper and lower and / or left and right ends of the heating component 31. The surface of the suction component 32 is provided with multiple air inlet holes 321.
[0038] The filter plate 33 is located on the side of the suction component 32 facing the steam generator 4 and is fixed between the suction component 32 and the housing 1. The filter plate 33 is a replaceable mesh structure and can be directly rinsed after being disassembled at the same time as the suction component 32.
[0039] A suction fan 5 is provided behind the steam generator 4. The air inlet of the suction fan 5 is connected to the air inlet hole 321, and the air outlet of the suction fan 5 is connected to the air outlet hole 312. The suction fan 5 is used to generate negative pressure, so that the airflow can flow from the air inlet hole 321 to the air outlet hole 312, and discharge the water vapor generated by the steam generator 4 from the air outlet hole 312, thereby achieving the effect of smoothing the clothes.
[0040] Furthermore, the suction component 32 includes at least two independent split suction units 320, namely suction component one and suction component two, which are symmetrically distributed on the upper and lower sides or left and right sides of the heating component 31.
[0041] Furthermore, the suction unit 320 is installed on the housing 1 by means of snap-fit, magnetic attraction or screw connection, or other quick-release structure, so that the suction unit 320 can be easily installed and removed from the front end of the housing 1.
[0042] Furthermore, the front end of the housing 1 is provided with a mounting groove 11, and the suction unit 320 and the filter plate 33 are installed in the mounting groove 11. The inner side wall of the mounting groove 11 is provided with a protrusion 12, and the side wall of the suction unit 320 is provided with a notch 322 that matches the protrusion 12. During installation, the protrusion 12 is interference-fitted into the notch 322. The interference fit between the protrusion 12 and the notch 322, and the positioning design of the guide block 13 and the guide groove 323, ensure that the suction component 32 is installed firmly and in an accurate position.
[0043] Furthermore, a guide block 13 is provided on the inner side wall of the mounting groove 11, and a guide groove 323 corresponding to the guide block 13 is provided on the side wall of the suction unit 320. When installing the suction component 32, the guide block 13 is embedded in the guide groove 323, guiding the suction component 32 to slide along a predetermined path, ensuring that it is completely aligned with the mounting groove 11 of the housing 1, avoiding positional deviation, preventing installation errors, further enhancing the stability of the installation, and ensuring that the suction component 32 is firmly fixed in place.
[0044] Furthermore, a wrench 324 is provided on the outer wall of the suction unit 320 to assist in disassembling or installing the suction component 32.
[0045] Furthermore, the heating element 31 is a flat heating structure, and the working area of its heating surface 311 covers the area between the multiple suction units 320. The flat heating element 31 covers the distribution area between the multiple units, thereby improving ironing efficiency.
[0046] Furthermore, the air intake holes 321 are arranged in an array, with a diameter of 0.5-2mm.
[0047] Assembly process: Place the filter plate 33 into the mounting groove 11 of the housing 1, then place the suction component 32 into the mounting groove 11 of the housing 1, align the guide block 13 and guide groove 323, and push the suction component 32 until the protrusion 12 is engaged in the notch 322 to complete the fixing; the steam generator 4 generates steam, which is sprayed onto the surface of the clothing through the air outlet 312, while the suction component 32 adsorbs lint through the air inlet 321. When the filter screen is clogged, hold the wrench 324 of the suction component 32 and pull it outward to disengage the protrusion 12 from the notch 322, then remove the suction component 32 and the filter plate 33, rinse them directly, and reinstall them.
[0048] This utility model solves the problems of easy clogging of the filter, inconvenient cleaning, and low heating efficiency by using a detachable suction component 32 and a split heating design. Its structure is simple and low cost, and it can be widely used in household or commercial garment steamers. It is especially suitable for users who need to clean the filter frequently and has significant market promotion value.
[0049] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
