Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electrical appliances, and in particular to an aromatherapy structure and an aromatherapy ironing machine. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technologies, the aromatherapy structure of aromatherapy irons lacks internal flow channels. The liquid flows unrestrained and unguided within the containment space, contacting the aromatherapy block in a disordered manner, resulting in a significantly reduced mixing effect. Due to the lack of specific path planning, the contact time between the liquid and the aromatherapy block is difficult to guarantee; some liquid may quickly glide across the surface of the aromatherapy block and flow out of the structure, failing to fully extract the fragrance and impacting the user experience. Utility Model Content

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to provide an aromatherapy structure and an aromatherapy ironing machine to address the problem of the lack of flow channels inside the aromatherapy structure of aromatherapy ironing machines.

[0004] An aromatherapy structure includes: a shell assembly having a receiving space for storing aromatherapy blocks; a flow pipe including a first pipe and a second pipe, both disposed on the shell assembly, the first pipe having an inlet and the second pipe having an outlet; and a flow guide plate disposed on the shell assembly and located within the receiving space, the flow guide plate dividing the receiving space into at least two channels, the at least two channels being connected to form a flow guide channel, the inlet, the flow guide channel, and the outlet being sequentially connected.

[0005] The above-disclosed aromatherapy structure is used in an aromatherapy ironing machine. When applied to an aromatherapy ironing machine, this structure achieves a deep integration of ironing and aromatherapy functions, significantly improving the user experience and ironing quality. The housing component's accommodating space is specifically designed for aromatherapy blocks, not only securely storing them and preventing them from shifting during ironing operation, but also effectively isolating them from external environmental interference with the aroma, ensuring the purity and longevity of the fragrance even under high-temperature steam. Users can flexibly change different scented blocks according to their preferences, allowing clothes to absorb unique aromas during ironing to meet personalized needs. The flow pipes, with inlets and outlets respectively located in the first and second pipes, construct a clear and orderly liquid flow path, providing clear guidance for liquid flow. The liquid inlet, located on the first pipe, precisely controls the flow rate and speed of the liquid, ensuring it enters the containment space in a stable and suitable state, creating conditions for full contact with the aromatherapy block. The liquid outlet on the second pipe is responsible for timely exporting the evenly mixed aromatherapy liquid, smoothly delivering it to the subsequent heating element, where it is converted into fragrant steam for ironing. The guide plate and the housing assembly form a flow channel that cleverly works in conjunction with the iron's steam system. During ironing, water flows into the containment space through the liquid inlet, flows evenly along the guide channel, and after full contact with the aromatherapy block, the fragrant liquid is discharged through the outlet and sent to the heating element to heat the liquid. This design allows aromatherapy molecules to fully adhere to the surface of the clothing, avoiding insufficient fragrance and leaving the clothing smooth and crisp while emitting a light and pleasant aroma. At the same time, the scientific layout of the flow channel optimizes the mixing efficiency of steam and aromatherapy, improving the efficiency of aromatherapy use within the effective aromatherapy structure space (40*26.6*17.5mm).

[0006] In one embodiment, multiple guide plates are spaced apart on opposite side walls of the housing assembly. These spaced-apart, oppositely positioned guide plates divide the accommodating space into multiple channels, which are then sequentially connected to form the flow channel. By spaced-apart guide plates on opposite side walls of the housing assembly, a flow channel with an effective flow length of 80mm is constructed. This design brings multi-dimensional performance improvements to the aromatherapy iron. First, the 80mm flow channel significantly extends the contact path and time between the water flow and the aromatherapy block. Sufficient contact time allows aromatherapy molecules to fully dissolve, volatilize, and mix with the water flow. Compared to a shorter flow structure, the aromatherapy volatilization efficiency is greatly improved, allowing clothes to absorb a richer, fuller fragrance during ironing, achieving long-lasting scent retention. Second, the longer flow channel allows for precise control of the water flow. The spaced-apart guide plates effectively disperse water pressure, ensuring the water flow is evenly distributed throughout the channel. This not only ensures full contact between the water and the aromatherapy block, preventing insufficient aroma extraction due to excessive water flow, but also ensures that the water reaches the ideal temperature and concentration before reaching the heating area. During ironing, the stable flow of aromatherapy water generates steam upon heating, which more efficiently and precisely delivers the aroma to every corner of the garment, significantly improving the evenness of the aroma and the adhesion of the aroma after ironing.

[0007] In one embodiment, the housing assembly includes a main housing and a front housing. The main housing is mounted on an external structure, and the front housing is mounted on the main housing and encloses the receiving space. The flow-through pipe is mounted on the front housing, and multiple guide plates are spaced apart and oppositely mounted on the main housing, with their sides abutting against the main housing and the front housing. By securely connecting the main housing to the external structure, a solid foundation is provided, ensuring the stability of the aromatherapy structure during ironing operation and preventing loosening of internal components due to vibration or other factors. The receiving space formed by the front housing and the main housing provides space for storing aromatherapy blocks and for mixing water with the aromatherapy blocks. The flow-through pipe, mounted on the front housing, forms a reasonable spatial layout with the guide plates, making the connection between the liquid inlet, flow channel, and liquid outlet smoother. During the mixing and flow of steam and aromatherapy replenishment liquid, resistance loss caused by unreasonable structural layout is reduced, improving liquid flow efficiency. Meanwhile, multiple guide plates are spaced apart and positioned opposite each other on the main housing, with their sides tightly abutting against the main housing and front housing. This design effectively ensures the sealing of the flow channel. On the one hand, it prevents water leakage or diversion during the flow process, ensuring that the water flows strictly along the designed flow channel path, thereby maintaining full contact between the water and the aromatherapy block.

[0008] In one embodiment, the housing assembly further includes a positioning element disposed on the front housing and located on the side of the front housing facing the receiving space, spaced apart from one of the plurality of guide plates. By placing the positioning element on the side of the front housing facing the receiving space, spaced apart from the guide plates, the core function of this design is to achieve foolproof assembly, effectively avoiding functional failures and quality risks caused by incorrect assembly orientation. During the production and assembly of aromatherapy ironing machines, due to the complex structures of components such as guide plates, front housing, and main housing, the front housing is easily installed in the wrong orientation without precise assembly guidance. The positioning element, through its unique positional layout and structural features, provides a clear indication for the correct installation of the front housing. The spacing between the positioning element and the guide plates creates a specific spatial constraint, ensuring that the front housing can only be installed in the designated position in one correct orientation during assembly. If an attempt is made to install it in the opposite direction, the positioning element will physically interfere with the guide plates, visually indicating an incorrect installation orientation. This design significantly reduces the assembly error rate caused by human negligence. In mass production, workers no longer need to repeatedly confirm the front shell installation direction, enabling them to complete the assembly process quickly and accurately, thus shortening the production cycle. At the same time, avoiding assembly errors reduces time and material costs associated with rework and repairs.

[0009] In one embodiment, the main housing includes a rear shell, an adapter, and a connector. The adapter is disposed on the rear shell and located on the side where the rear shell mates with the front shell. The adapter is positioned along the edge of the rear shell, and the connector is disposed on the rear shell for fixing to an external structure. By positioning the adapter along the edge where the rear and front shells mate, its primary function is to optimize the fit between the front and rear shells. Through the transition of the adapter, the front and rear shells can fit more tightly, effectively filling the gap between them and enhancing the sealing of the containment space. This not only prevents leakage when liquid comes into contact with the aromatherapy, but also prevents external dust and impurities from entering, protecting the aromatherapy block and the flow channel, ensuring the long-term stable operation of the aromatherapy structure, and also helps maintain the temperature and pressure of steam during ironing, improving ironing effect and aromatherapy diffusion efficiency. The connector is located on the back cover and is specifically designed to be fixed to the external structure. Through reasonable layout and precise design, the connector can achieve a firm connection between the aromatherapy structure and the ironing machine body, ensuring that the aromatherapy structure will not loosen or fall off during frequent movement and long-term use of the equipment.

[0010] In one embodiment, the front shell has a connecting space surrounding its edge, which is fitted to the adapter. The connecting space and adapter are fitted together using ultrasonic welding. Ultrasonic welding technology uses high-frequency vibration to generate heat through high-speed friction between the molecules at the contact points of the connecting space and the adapter, achieving a fusion of materials and forming a strong, integrated connection structure. Compared to traditional snap-fit ​​and screw connections, this method significantly improves the connection strength between the front shell and the main shell, ensuring a tight, unified whole. This effectively resists vibrations and external impacts generated during ironing operation, preventing structural displacement or functional failure due to loose connections. Regarding sealing, the sealed structure formed by the ultrasonic welding of the front shell connecting space and the adapter creates ideal conditions for thorough mixing of water and the aromatherapy block. The tight seal eliminates the possibility of leakage in the flow channel, ensuring that the water flows strictly along the designed flow path, completely passing through every area in contact with the aromatherapy block. Any gaps causing leakage would prevent the water from fully contacting the aromatherapy block, reducing aroma extraction efficiency. A stable, sealed environment allows water to maintain a uniform speed and pressure, ensuring prolonged and comprehensive contact with the aromatherapy block within the flow channel. This allows the aromatherapy molecules to fully dissolve in the water, forming a balanced and fragrant mixture.

[0011] In one embodiment, the rear shell, the adapter, and the connector are integrally formed. By using an integral molding process for the rear shell, adapter, and connector, the cumbersome process of processing and assembling multiple parts separately is avoided, reducing the number of parts and assembly steps. Compared to traditional modular manufacturing, integral molding can significantly improve production efficiency, greatly shorten the production cycle, reduce labor costs and the defect rate caused by assembly errors, and provide efficient and stable assurance for large-scale production.

[0012] In one embodiment, the main housing and the plurality of guide plates are integrally formed. By using an integral forming process for the main housing and the plurality of guide plates, the connection gap between the guide plates and the main housing in traditional separate assembly is eliminated, making the two form a rigid whole. This design can effectively resist the shear force caused by equipment vibration, prevent the guide plates from shifting or deforming due to long-term stress, ensure the geometric accuracy of the flow channel, fundamentally guarantee the stability of the contact path between the water flow and the aroma block, and avoid the decrease in aroma extraction efficiency due to structural deformation.

[0013] In one embodiment, the flow pipe further includes two blocking blocks, which are respectively disposed on the first pipe and the second pipe and located at the end near the receiving space. By setting inlet and outlet ports on the first and second pipes respectively, a clear and orderly liquid flow path is constructed, providing clear guidance for the liquid flow. The inlet port on the first pipe can accurately control the inlet flow rate and speed, ensuring that the liquid enters the receiving space in a stable and suitable state, creating conditions for full contact with the aromatherapy block; the outlet port on the second pipe is responsible for timely exporting the uniformly mixed aromatherapy liquid and smoothly delivering it to the subsequent heating element, where it is converted into aroma-rich steam for ironing clothes. The two blocking blocks can directly intercept larger aromatherapy particles, preventing them from entering the pipe and clogging the inlet or outlet port. Compared to traditional smooth blocking surfaces, the cross-ribbed blocking blocks can intercept particles on the surface, allowing them to return to the guiding channel with the liquid under the flushing action of the liquid flow, continuing to participate in the aroma extraction process, instead of accumulating at the pipe port and causing blockage.

[0014] The second aspect of this application discloses an aromatherapy ironing machine, which includes: the aforementioned aromatherapy structure; a liquid storage tank assembly, wherein the aromatherapy structure is disposed on the liquid storage tank assembly, and the liquid storage tank assembly has a water storage chamber, a water tank outlet, and a water tank through-hole; a filter assembly, wherein the filter assembly is disposed on the liquid storage tank assembly, and the filter assembly has a filter inlet chamber and a filter outlet chamber; a pump body, wherein the pump body has a pump body inlet and a pump body outlet; and a heating assembly, wherein the heating assembly has a heating inlet and a heating outlet, wherein the water storage chamber, the water tank outlet, the water tank through-hole, the filter inlet chamber, the filter outlet chamber, the inlet, the guide channel, the outlet, the pump body inlet, the pump body outlet, the heating inlet, and the heating outlet are sequentially connected.

[0015] The second aspect disclosed above discloses an aromatherapy ironing machine, in which various components work together to construct an efficient and stable aromatherapy steam generation and transmission system. The liquid storage tank assembly serves as the liquid storage and initial output unit. Its water storage chamber stores clean water, while the water tank outlet and outlet precisely control the liquid flow, ensuring a stable flow rate into subsequent components. This not only provides a continuous and stable liquid supply for the entire system but also, through a reasonable structural design, avoids liquid residue or leakage, ensuring the safety and reliability of the equipment operation. The filter assembly is located on the liquid storage tank assembly, with its inlet and outlet chambers forming a crucial purification stage. Before the liquid flows into the aromatherapy structure, the filter assembly effectively intercepts impurities, particles, and other contaminants in the liquid, preventing them from entering the guide channel and clogging the pipes, or adhering to the surface of the aromatherapy blocks and affecting the aroma extraction effect. The aromatherapy structure, as the core module, utilizes a unique structural design to achieve thorough aroma mixing after the liquid flows through the inlet into the guide channel. Multiple guide plates form a flow channel, combined with convex cross-rib blocking components to prevent particle blockage, ensuring full contact between the liquid and the aromatherapy block for efficient fragrance extraction. The pump body serves as the power transmission unit. The pump inlet receives the liquid from the aromatherapy structure and, driven by internal power, delivers the liquid from the pump outlet to the heating element at a stable pressure and flow rate. The heating inlet receives the aromatherapy liquid from the pump and, through a high-efficiency heating element, rapidly converts the liquid into high-temperature steam, which is then sprayed out from the heating outlet for ironing clothes. All components of the entire system are interconnected, achieving seamless integration of the entire process from liquid storage, filtration, aroma mixing, power transmission to steam generation. This not only ensures a stable and high-quality output of aromatherapy steam but also enhances the overall performance of the aromatherapy iron and the user experience through the precise division of labor and coordinated operation of each component.

[0016] In one embodiment, the liquid storage tank assembly includes a water tank body and a mounting component. The mounting component is disposed on the water tank body, and the aromatherapy structure and the filter assembly are disposed on the mounting component. The water tank body has a water storage chamber, and the mounting component has a water tank outlet and a water tank inlet. This combination of the water tank body and mounting component provides several advantages for the liquid storage and transfer process of the aromatherapy iron. The water tank body, as the core liquid storage unit, has a large-capacity water storage chamber that can hold sufficient clean water to meet the user's needs for extended use. The mounting component ensures that the relative positions of the components are precisely fixed, guaranteeing that after the liquid flows out of the water storage chamber, it flows sequentially through the water tank outlet, water tank inlet, filter assembly, and aromatherapy structure along a preset path, avoiding problems such as poor liquid flow or leakage due to installation deviations.

[0017] In one embodiment, the filter assembly includes a main filter housing and a rear cover, the rear cover being disposed on the main filter housing. The main filter housing has a filter inlet chamber and a filter outlet chamber. By employing a combined design of the main filter housing and the rear cover, the main filter housing serves as the core filter carrier, and its carefully designed filter inlet and outlet chambers constitute the critical path for liquid purification. Through scientifically planned flow channel layout between the two chambers, the liquid entering the filter inlet chamber can flow through the filter medium at a uniform and stable flow rate. The rear cover, disposed on the main filter housing, is crucial for ensuring the sealing and structural stability of the filter assembly. During installation, the rear cover fits tightly with the main filter housing, forming a closed filtration space to prevent liquid leakage during filtration and ensure that all liquid completes purification through the predetermined filtration path.

[0040] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0041] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0042] The aromatherapy structure and aromatherapy ironing machine of this utility model are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0043] Example 1

[0044] like Figures 1 to 14As shown, this embodiment discloses an aromatherapy structure, including: a shell assembly 1, the shell assembly 1 having a receiving space 101 for storing aromatherapy blocks; a flow pipe 2, the flow pipe 2 including a first pipe 21 and a second pipe 22, both the first pipe 21 and the second pipe 22 being disposed on the shell assembly 1, the first pipe 21 having a liquid inlet 201, and the second pipe 22 having a liquid outlet 202; and a guide plate 3, the guide plate 3 being disposed on the shell assembly 1 and located in the receiving space 101, the guide plate 3 dividing the receiving space 101 and forming at least two channels, the at least two channels being connected to form a flow channel, the liquid inlet 201, the flow channel and the liquid outlet 202 being connected in sequence.

[0045] This application discloses an aromatherapy structure for an aromatherapy ironing machine. When applied to an aromatherapy ironing machine, this structure achieves a deep integration of ironing and aromatherapy functions, significantly improving the user experience and ironing quality. The housing component 1's receiving space 101 is specifically designed for aromatherapy blocks, not only securely storing them and preventing them from shifting during ironing operation, but also effectively isolating them from external environmental interference with the aroma, ensuring the aroma maintains its purity and longevity under high-temperature steam. Users can flexibly change different aromatherapy blocks according to their preferences, allowing clothes to absorb unique fragrances during ironing to meet personalized needs. The flow pipe 2, by setting an inlet 201 and an outlet 202 in the first pipe 21 and the second pipe 22 respectively, constructs a clear and orderly liquid flow path, providing clear guidance for the liquid flow. The liquid inlet 201, located on the first pipe 21, precisely controls the flow rate and speed of the liquid, ensuring that the liquid enters the receiving space 101 in a stable and suitable state, creating conditions for full contact with the aromatherapy block. The liquid outlet 202 on the second pipe 22 is responsible for timely exporting the evenly mixed aromatherapy liquid and smoothly delivering it to the subsequent heating element, where it is converted into fragrant steam for ironing clothes. The guide plate 3 and the housing assembly 1 form a guide channel that cleverly cooperates with the steam system of the ironing machine. During ironing, water flows into the receiving space 101 through the liquid inlet 201. The water flows evenly along the guide channel, and after making full contact with the aromatherapy block, the fragrant liquid is discharged through the liquid outlet 202 and sent to the heating element 7 to heat the liquid. This design allows the aromatherapy molecules to fully adhere to the surface of the clothes, avoiding the problem of insufficient fragrance, so that the clothes are smooth and crisp while exuding a light and pleasant fragrance. Meanwhile, the scientific layout of the flow channels can optimize the mixing efficiency of steam and aromatherapy, and improve the efficiency of aromatherapy use within the effective aromatherapy structure space (40*26.6*17.5mm).

[0046] like Figure 5As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: the number of guide plates 3 is multiple, and multiple guide plates 3 are spaced apart on opposite side walls of the housing assembly 1. The multiple spaced and oppositely arranged guide plates 3 divide the accommodating space 101 into multiple channels, and the multiple channels are connected sequentially to form a guide channel. By spaced apart multiple guide plates 3 on opposite side walls of the housing assembly 1, a guide channel with an effective flow length of 80mm is constructed. This design brings multi-dimensional performance improvements to the aromatherapy iron. First, the 80mm guide channel significantly extends the contact path and time between the water flow and the aromatherapy block. Sufficient contact time allows the aromatherapy molecules to fully dissolve, volatilize, and mix with the water flow. Compared with a short flow length structure, its aromatherapy volatilization efficiency is greatly improved, allowing clothes to absorb a richer and fuller fragrance during ironing, achieving long-lasting fragrance. Second, the longer guide channel plays a role in fine-tuning the water flow. The spaced arrangement of the guide plates 3 can effectively disperse the water flow pressure, making the water flow evenly distributed throughout the channel. This not only ensures full contact between the water and the aromatherapy block, preventing insufficient aroma extraction due to excessive water flow, but also ensures that the water reaches the ideal temperature and concentration before reaching the heating area. During ironing, the stable flow of aromatherapy water generates steam upon heating, which more efficiently and precisely delivers the aroma to every corner of the garment, significantly improving the evenness of the aroma and the adhesion of the aroma after ironing.

[0047] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further defines: the housing assembly 1 includes a main housing 11 and a front housing 12. The main housing 11 is mounted on the external structure, and the front housing 12 is mounted on the main housing 11 and encloses to form a receiving space 101. The flow pipe 2 is mounted on the front housing 12, and multiple guide plates 3 are spaced apart and oppositely mounted on the main housing 11. The two sides of the guide plates 3 abut against the main housing 11 and the front housing 12. By firmly connecting the main housing 11 to the external structure, a solid foundation support is provided to ensure the stability of the aromatherapy structure during the operation of the ironing machine and to prevent the internal components from loosening due to vibration or other factors. The front housing 12 and the main housing 11 enclose to form the receiving space 101, providing space for the storage of aromatherapy blocks and for the mixing of water with the aromatherapy blocks. The flow pipe 3 is mounted on the front housing 12 and forms a reasonable spatial layout with the guide plates 3, making the connection between the liquid inlet 201, the flow channel, and the liquid outlet 202 smoother. During the mixing and flow of steam and aromatherapy refill liquid, resistance loss caused by unreasonable structural layout is reduced, improving liquid flow efficiency. Simultaneously, multiple guide plates 3 are spaced apart and oppositely positioned on the main housing 11, with their sides tightly abutting against the main housing 11 and the front housing 12. This design effectively ensures the sealing of the guide channel. On one hand, it prevents water leakage or diversion during the guide process, ensuring that the water flows strictly along the designed guide channel path, thereby maintaining full contact between the water and the aromatherapy block.

[0048] like Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: the housing assembly 1 also includes a positioning member 13, which is disposed on the front housing 12 and located on the side of the front housing 12 facing the receiving space 101, and the positioning member 13 is spaced apart from one of the plurality of guide plates 3. By placing the positioning member 13 on the side of the front housing 12 facing the receiving space 101 and spaced apart from the guide plate 3, the core function of this design is to achieve foolproof assembly and effectively avoid functional failures and quality hazards caused by incorrect assembly direction. In the production and assembly process of the aromatherapy ironing machine, due to the complex structure of components such as the guide plate 3, the front housing 12, and the main housing 11, if there is a lack of precise assembly guidance, it is very easy for the front housing 12 to be installed in the wrong direction. The presence of the positioning member 13, through its unique position layout and structural features, provides a clear mark for the correct installation of the front housing 12. The spacing between the positioning component 13 and the air deflector 3 creates a specific spatial constraint. During assembly, workers can only install the front shell 12 into the designated position in one correct direction. If an attempt is made to install it in the opposite direction, the positioning component 13 will physically interfere with the air deflector 3, visually indicating that the installation direction is incorrect. This design significantly reduces the assembly error rate caused by human negligence. In mass production, workers do not need to repeatedly confirm the installation direction of the front shell 12, and can quickly and accurately complete the assembly process, shortening the production cycle. At the same time, avoiding assembly errors reduces the time and material costs caused by rework and repairs.

[0049] like Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further defines: the main housing 11 includes a rear housing 111, an adapter 112, and a connector 113. The adapter 112 is disposed on the rear housing 111 and located on the side where the rear housing 111 mates with the front housing 12. The adapter 112 is disposed along the edge of the rear housing 111. The connector 113 is disposed on the rear housing 111 and is used to fix it to the external structure. By disposing the adapter 112 along the edge where the rear housing 111 mates with the front housing 12, its primary function is to optimize the connection and compatibility between the front housing 12 and the rear housing 111. Through the transition of the adapter 112, the front housing 12 and the rear housing 111 can fit more tightly, effectively filling the gap between them and enhancing the sealing of the accommodating space 101. This not only prevents leakage when the liquid comes into contact with the aromatherapy, but also avoids the entry of external dust and impurities, protecting the aromatherapy block and the flow channel, ensuring the long-term stable operation of the aromatherapy structure. It also helps maintain the temperature and pressure of the steam during ironing, improving ironing results and aromatherapy diffusion efficiency. The connector 113 is located on the rear shell 111 and is specifically designed for fixing to the external structure. Through reasonable layout and precise design, the connector 113 achieves a firm connection between the aromatherapy structure and the ironing machine body, ensuring that the aromatherapy structure will not loosen or fall off during frequent movement and prolonged use of the equipment.

[0050] like Figure 6 , Figure 8 and Figure 9As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: the front shell 12 is provided with a connecting space 102, the connecting space 102 is arranged around the edge of the front shell 12, and the connecting space 102 is adapted to the adapter 112. By adapting and installing the connecting space 101 of the front shell 12 and the adapter 112 using ultrasonic welding, the ultrasonic welding technology uses high-frequency vibration to cause the molecules at the contact parts of the connecting space 101 and the adapter 112 to generate heat through high-speed friction, thereby achieving the fusion bonding of materials and forming a strong integrated connection structure. Compared with traditional buckle and screw connections, this connection method can significantly improve the connection strength between the front shell 12 and the main shell 11, making the two tightly integrated into a whole, effectively resisting the vibration and external impact generated during the operation of the ironing machine, and avoiding structural displacement or functional failure due to loose connection. In terms of sealing, the sealed structure formed by the ultrasonic welding of the connecting space 102 of the front shell 12 and the adapter 112 creates ideal conditions for the full mixing of water and aromatherapy blocks. The airtight seal eliminates any possibility of leakage in the flow channel, ensuring that the water flows strictly along the designed path, completely passing through every area in contact with the aromatherapy block. Any gaps causing leakage would prevent the water from fully contacting the aromatherapy block, reducing aroma extraction efficiency. The stable, sealed environment allows the water to maintain a uniform speed and pressure, ensuring prolonged and comprehensive contact with the aromatherapy block within the flow channel. This allows the aroma molecules to fully dissolve in the water, forming a balanced, fully aromatic mixture.

[0051] like Figure 6 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that the rear shell 111, the adapter 112, and the connector 113 are integrally formed. By adopting an integral forming process for the rear shell 111, the adapter 112, and the connector 113, the cumbersome process of processing and reassembling multiple parts separately is avoided, reducing the number of parts and assembly steps. Compared with traditional modular manufacturing, integral forming can significantly improve production efficiency, significantly shorten the production cycle, reduce labor costs and the defect rate caused by assembly errors, and provide an efficient and stable guarantee for large-scale production.

[0052] like Figure 5 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that the main housing 11 and the multiple guide plates 3 are integrally formed. By adopting an integral forming process for the main housing 11 and the multiple guide plates 3, the connection gap between the guide plates 3 and the main housing 11 in traditional separate assembly is eliminated, making the two form a rigid whole. This design can effectively resist the shear force caused by equipment vibration, avoid displacement or deformation of the guide plates 3 due to long-term stress, ensure the geometric accuracy of the flow channel, fundamentally ensure the stability of the contact path between the water flow and the aromatherapy block, and avoid the decrease in aroma extraction efficiency due to structural deformation.

[0053] like Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: the flow pipe 2 also includes two blocking blocks 23, which are respectively disposed on the first pipe 21 and the second pipe 22 and located at one end near the receiving space 101. The two blocking blocks 23 can directly intercept larger-sized aroma particles, preventing them from entering the pipe and clogging the inlet 201 or outlet 202. Compared with the traditional smooth blocking surface, the cross-ribbed blocking block 23 can intercept particles on the surface, allowing them to return to the flow channel with the liquid under the flushing action of the liquid flow, and continue to participate in the aroma extraction process, without accumulating at the pipe port and causing blockage.

[0054] Example 2

[0055] like Figures 1 to 14 As shown, this embodiment discloses an aromatherapy ironing machine, including: the aromatherapy structure described above; a liquid storage tank assembly 4, on which the aromatherapy structure is disposed; the liquid storage tank assembly 4 having a water storage chamber 401, a water tank outlet 402, and a water tank overflow port 403; a filter assembly 5, on which the filter assembly 5 is disposed, having a filter inlet chamber 501 and a filter outlet chamber 502; and a pump body 6 having a pump body inlet. The pump body has a 601 inlet and a 602 outlet; a heating assembly 7, which is provided with a heating inlet 701 and a heating outlet 702. The water storage chamber 401, the water tank outlet 402, the water tank overflow port 403, the filter inlet chamber 501, the filter outlet chamber 502, the inlet 201, the guide channel, the outlet 202, the pump body inlet 601, the pump body outlet 602, the heating inlet 701, and the heating outlet 702 are connected in sequence.

[0056] The second aspect of this application discloses an aromatherapy ironing machine, in which various components work in an orderly manner to construct an efficient and stable aromatherapy steam generation and transmission system. The liquid storage tank assembly 4 serves as a liquid storage and initial output unit. Its water storage chamber 401 stores clean water, while the water tank outlet 402 and water tank outlet 403 precisely control the liquid flow, ensuring a stable flow rate into subsequent components. This not only provides a continuous and stable liquid supply for the entire system but also, through a reasonable structural design, avoids liquid residue or leakage, ensuring the safety and reliability of the equipment operation. The filter assembly 5 is installed on the liquid storage tank assembly 4, with its filter inlet chamber 501 and filter outlet chamber 502 constituting a crucial purification stage. Before the liquid flows into the aromatherapy structure, the filter assembly 5 effectively intercepts impurities, particles, and other contaminants in the liquid, preventing them from entering the guide channel and clogging the pipes, or adhering to the surface of the aromatherapy block and affecting the aroma extraction effect. The aromatherapy structure, as the core module, utilizes a unique structural design to achieve thorough aroma mixing after the liquid flows through the inlet 201 into the guide channel. Multiple guide plates 3 form a flow channel, which, together with the convex cross-rib blocking component 23, prevents particles from clogging the holes, ensuring full contact between the liquid and the aromatherapy block for efficient fragrance extraction. The pump body 6 serves as the power transmission unit. The pump body inlet 601 receives the liquid from the aromatherapy structure and, driven by internal power, delivers the liquid from the pump body outlet 602 to the heating component 7 at a stable pressure and flow rate. The heating inlet 701 receives the aromatherapy liquid delivered by the pump body 6 and, through a high-efficiency heating element, rapidly converts the liquid into high-temperature steam, which is then sprayed out from the heating outlet for ironing clothes. All components of the entire system are sequentially connected, achieving seamless integration of the entire process from liquid storage, filtration, aroma mixing, power transmission to steam generation. This not only ensures a stable output and high-quality output of aromatherapy steam but also improves the overall performance of the aromatherapy ironing machine and the user experience through the precise division of labor and coordinated operation of each component.

[0057] like Figure 1 , Figure 10 and Figure 11As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: the liquid storage tank assembly 4 includes a water tank body 41 and a mounting component 42. The mounting component 42 is disposed on the water tank body 41, and the aromatherapy structure and filter assembly 5 are disposed on the mounting component 42. The water tank body 41 is provided with a water storage chamber 401, and the mounting component 42 is provided with a water tank outlet 402 and a water tank through-hole 403. By adopting the combined design of the water tank body 41 and the mounting component 42, multiple advantages are brought to the liquid storage and transmission links of the aromatherapy ironing machine. As the core liquid storage unit, the water tank body 41 has a large-capacity water storage chamber 401 that can store sufficient clean water to meet the user's long-term use needs. The presence of the mounting component 42 ensures that the relative positions between the components are precisely fixed, ensuring that after the liquid flows out of the water storage chamber 401, it can flow sequentially through the water tank outlet 402, the water tank through-hole 403, the filter assembly 5, and the aromatherapy structure according to a preset path, avoiding problems such as poor liquid flow or leakage caused by installation deviation.

[0058] like Figure 1 , Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further defines: the filter assembly 5 includes a filter main shell 51 and a rear cover 52, the rear cover 52 being disposed on the filter main shell 51, and the filter main shell 51 having a filter inlet chamber 501 and a filter outlet chamber 502. By adopting the combined design of the filter main shell 51 and the rear cover 52, the filter main shell 51 serves as the core filter carrier, and its carefully designed filter inlet chamber 501 and filter outlet chamber 502 constitute the key path for liquid purification. Through scientific planning of the flow channel layout between the two chambers, the liquid entering the filter inlet chamber 501 can flow through the filter medium at a uniform and stable flow rate. The rear cover 52, disposed on the filter main shell 51, is crucial for ensuring the sealing and structural stability of the filter assembly 5. During installation, the rear cover 52 and the filter main shell 51 fit tightly together to form a closed filtration space, preventing liquid leakage during filtration and ensuring that all liquids complete purification through the predetermined filtration path.

[0059] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
