Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to cleaning equipment technology, and more particularly to a suction head and an ironing machine. Background Technology

[0002] With the improvement of living standards, ironing machines, as a household appliance that can iron clothes, have become increasingly popular. Ironing machines usually have an ironing panel with a steam outlet. Users can hold the ironing machine and make the ironing panel contact the clothes to be ironed. The high-temperature steam sprayed from the steam outlet is used to iron the clothes, which loosens the clothing fibers and reduces wrinkles.

[0003] In related technologies, ironing machines are typically equipped with a suction component. The ironing panel has an air intake, and the suction component generates suction to draw clothing onto the ironing panel through the air intake, ensuring stable contact between the ironing panel and the clothing and guaranteeing the ironing effect. During ironing, dust, hair, and fabric debris on the clothing are inevitably drawn into the suction component, causing blockage or even damage. Therefore, filters are usually installed inside the ironing machine to remove these impurities.

[0004] However, the traditional method of setting up a filter increases air resistance and generates significant noise. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of this, this application provides a suction head and an ironing machine that can prevent dust, hair and fabric debris on clothing from being sucked into the suction assembly, while also solving the problems of high wind resistance and high noise.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this application provides a steaming head and an ironing machine, which adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] In a first aspect, this application provides a hot water suction head, comprising:

[0008] case;

[0009] A suction assembly is disposed within the housing, and the suction assembly has an air inlet channel;

[0010] A filter assembly, including a support and a filter element;

[0011] The support is inserted into the housing, and the support is provided with a mounting hole. The mounting hole is opposite to the air inlet channel, and the filter element is disposed in the mounting hole.

[0012] The support portion is provided with an air guide groove, which is connected to the mounting hole.

[0013] Thus, by installing filters within the mounting holes of the support section, impurities such as clothing fibers, dust, and hair are directly intercepted, preventing these substances from entering the suction assembly. The air guide channels in the support section, connected to the mounting holes, increase the airflow path area, guiding the airflow evenly through the filters and avoiding excessive local resistance caused by direct airflow impact on the filters. The design of the air guide channels disperses the airflow path, reducing the generation of turbulence and eddies, thereby reducing wind resistance and noise.

[0014] In one possible implementation, the suction head provided in this application has the filter assembly detachably connected to the housing;

[0015] The housing is provided with a plug-in groove, which is connected to the air inlet channel, and the support is inserted into the plug-in groove.

[0016] In this way, by setting a plug-in groove on the housing that communicates with the air inlet channel, the support can be stably inserted into the plug-in groove, making the installation position of the filter assembly more precise and facilitating quick disassembly and maintenance.

[0017] In one possible implementation, the suction head provided in this application, when the support part is inserted into the insertion slot, has the plane where the support part is located perpendicular to the axis of the air inlet channel;

[0018] Within the plane of the support portion, the ratio of the area of ​​the air guide groove to the area of ​​the support portion is greater than or equal to 0.01 and less than 1.

[0019] In this way, the plane of the support is perpendicular to the axis of the air inlet channel, so that the filter element faces the direction of airflow. This layout can maximize the use of the effective area of ​​the filter element, directly intercept impurities such as clothing fibers and dust, reduce the "side leakage" problem caused by impurities due to airflow deviation, and improve filtration efficiency.

[0020] In one possible implementation, when the support portion of the suction head provided in this application is inserted into the insertion slot, the axis of the filter element is parallel or approximately parallel to the axis of the air inlet channel.

[0021] in this way,

[0022] In one possible implementation, the suction head provided in this application has the air guide groove located on the side of the support portion facing the air inlet channel; and / or, the air guide groove is located on the side of the support portion away from the air inlet channel.

[0023] This improves the flexibility of the filter components, enabling them to adapt to different air intake directions or airflow intensities, and further enhances the versatility of the technology.

[0024] In one possible implementation, the suction head provided in this application has a fixing part provided inside the housing;

[0025] The support portion is provided with a fixing head, and at least a portion of the fixing head protrudes relative to the support portion in the thickness direction of the support portion, and the fixing head is connected to the fixing portion.

[0026] This ensures that the support can only be inserted into the socket of the housing in the correct direction, thus preventing incorrect insertion.

[0027] In one possible implementation, the suction head provided in this application has the fixing head located on the side of the support portion facing the air inlet channel;

[0028] The fixing part is configured as a recessed part, and the fixing head is inserted into the recessed part.

[0029] In this way, by setting a fixing head to be inserted into the recess, the connection structure can be simplified and the manufacturing cost can be reduced.

[0030] In one possible implementation, the suction head provided in this application has a sealing element provided in the support portion, and the sealing element is sleeved on the outside of the support portion.

[0031] When the support is inserted into the housing, the outer surface of the seal abuts against the inner wall of the insertion groove.

[0032] This effectively prevents unfiltered airflow from entering the air intake channel through the gap between the support and the housing, ensuring that all inhaled impurities must pass through the filter element, avoiding circumvention or leakage. It reduces the risk of the suction assembly becoming clogged or damaged due to direct entry of impurities, while also ensuring the cleanliness of the airflow within the air intake channel.

[0033] In addition, the seal abuts against the inner wall of the insertion groove, fixing the support part through friction to prevent it from shifting due to vibration and ensuring the continuity of the filtration effect.

[0034] In one possible implementation, the suction head provided in this application includes a filter assembly comprising a protrusion that protrudes toward the air inlet channel relative to the support portion, and at least a portion of the protrusion is located within the air inlet channel.

[0035] By placing the protruding part of the filter component within the air inlet channel, the intake airflow must first pass through the filter element. This effectively intercepts impurities such as dust, hair, and fabric debris from clothing, preventing them from entering the suction component and thus avoiding blockage or damage. Furthermore, this design ensures effective filtration while minimizing airflow resistance, reducing noise and vibration caused by airflow turbulence, and improving the user experience.

[0036] In one possible implementation, the suction head provided in this application further includes a boiler assembly, which is located inside the housing, and a suction channel is formed between the boiler assembly and the housing, and the suction channel is connected to the air inlet channel.

[0037] The surface of the support portion facing away from the air inlet channel is smoothly connected to the side wall of the air intake channel.

[0038] This avoids the abrupt airflow changes caused by traditional right-angle or stepped structures. When the airflow enters the suction channel from the intake channel, it can flow along a continuous and smooth path, reducing turbulence and eddies caused by structural abrupt changes, thereby reducing wind resistance and energy consumption.

[0039] Secondly, this application provides an ironing machine, including a body and an ironing head as described above disposed on the body.

[0040] Thus, irons equipped with the aforementioned suction heads can effectively trap dust, hair, fabric debris, and other impurities from clothing. This reduces the impact on airflow resistance, minimizes noise and vibration caused by airflow turbulence, and enhances the user experience.

[0041] The steam ironing head and steamer provided in this application include a housing, a suction assembly, and a filter assembly. The suction assembly is housed within the housing and has an air inlet channel. The filter assembly includes a support and a filter element. The support is inserted into the housing and has a mounting hole opposite to the air inlet channel. The filter element is housed within the mounting hole, and the support has an air guide groove communicating with the mounting hole. By placing the filter element within the mounting hole of the support, impurities such as clothing fibers, dust, and hair are directly intercepted, preventing these substances from entering the suction assembly and thus solving the problem of blockage or damage caused by impurity accumulation. The air guide groove in the support, communicating with the mounting hole, increases the airflow path area, guiding the airflow evenly through the filter element and avoiding excessive local resistance caused by direct airflow impact on the filter element. The design of the air guide groove disperses the airflow path, reducing turbulence and eddies, thereby reducing wind resistance and noise.

Detailed Implementation

[0056] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the drawings, the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar components or components having the same or similar functions throughout.

All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application. The embodiments of this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0057] In the description of the embodiments of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "linking" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or the internal communication between two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application according to the specific circumstances.

[0058] In the description of the embodiments of this application, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings.

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this application.

[0059] In the description of the embodiments of this application, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise specified precisely.

[0060] The terms "first," "second," "third," "fourth," etc., used in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this application are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence.

[0061] Furthermore, the terms “comprising” and “having”, and any variations thereof, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, system, product, or apparatus that includes a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units that are explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not explicitly listed or that are inherent to such process, method, product, or apparatus.

[0062] With the improvement of living standards, ironing machines, as a household appliance that can iron clothes, have become increasingly popular. As an indispensable piece of equipment in homes and professional laundry rooms, the main function of ironing machines is to smooth clothes, remove wrinkles, and restore the smoothness and luster of clothes through high temperature and pressure.

[0063] For example, an ironing machine typically has an ironing panel with a steam outlet. The user holds the ironing machine so that the ironing panel comes into contact with the clothes to be ironed, and uses the high-temperature steam sprayed from the steam outlet to iron the clothes, which loosens the fabric fibers and reduces wrinkles.

[0064] In related technologies, some ironing machines are usually equipped with suction components. The ironing panel has an air intake. The suction component generates suction force, which adsorbs the clothes onto the ironing panel through the air intake to ensure stable contact between the ironing panel and the clothes and to ensure the ironing effect.

[0065] However, when ironing clothes, dust, hair, and fabric debris are inevitably sucked into the suction unit, causing blockage or even damage. For example, if hair from the clothing enters the suction unit through the air inlet, it may become entangled in the motor, causing blockage or damage. To address the issue of impurities entering the suction unit through the air inlet, a filter is typically installed inside the iron to remove these impurities.

[0066] However, the traditional method of setting up a filter increases air resistance and generates significant noise.

[0067] Based on the aforementioned technical problems, this application provides a suction head and an ironing machine. In this solution, the suction head includes a housing, a suction assembly, and a filter assembly. The suction assembly is disposed within the housing and has an air inlet channel. The filter assembly includes a support portion and a filter element. The support portion is inserted into the housing and has a mounting hole opposite to the air inlet channel. The filter element is disposed within the mounting hole, and the support portion has an air guide groove communicating with the mounting hole. By placing the filter element within the mounting hole of the support portion, impurities such as clothing fibers, dust, and hair are directly intercepted, preventing these substances from entering the suction assembly and thus solving the problem of blockage or damage caused by impurity accumulation. The air guide groove in the support portion, communicating with the mounting hole, increases the airflow path area, guiding the airflow evenly through the filter element and avoiding excessive local resistance caused by direct airflow impact on the filter element. The design of the air guide groove disperses the airflow path, reducing turbulence and eddies, thereby reducing wind resistance and noise.

[0068] To facilitate understanding, the application scenarios of the embodiments of this application will be described first.

[0069] The steaming head and ironing machine provided in this application can be applied to clothing manufacturing, storage, sales, or laundry services. The clothing to be ironed by the steaming machine should be interpreted broadly, including but not limited to clothes, trousers, and other items for wearing, as well as fabrics such as curtains, sheets, and duvet covers. This application does not specifically limit this, and will be collectively referred to as "clothing" below, without further specific examples.

[0070] It should be noted that, Figures 1 to 9 This diagram illustrates a simplified representation of the steam suction head and other components of the ironing machine. The specific structures of the steam suction head and other components of the ironing machine are not limited to these examples. Figures 1 to 9 of examples.

[0071] The present application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:

[0072] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in the embodiment of this application, a steaming head and an ironing machine are provided. The steaming head provided in this application can be used in an ironing machine. The user can hold the ironing machine and make the ironing plate 10 of the steaming head contact the clothing to iron it. The ironing plate 10 can be a cast aluminum sole plate, or it can be a sole plate made of other heat-conducting metal or alloy material. This application does not specifically limit the specific material of the ironing plate 10.

[0073] It should also be noted that the X, Y, and Z directions shown in the attached diagram are mutually perpendicular in three-dimensional space.

[0074] Reference Figures 3 to 6 As shown, and in combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 An embodiment of this application provides a suction head including a housing 100, a suction assembly 200, and a filter assembly 300. The suction assembly 200 is disposed inside the housing 100 and has an air inlet channel 201.

[0075] For example, when ironing clothes, the suction component 200 generates negative pressure, and the ironing panel 10 has an air inlet 20. The clothes are adsorbed onto the ironing panel 10 through the air inlet 20 to ensure the ironing effect.

[0076] Multiple air inlets 20 are provided, and the multiple air inlets 20 are arranged in a ring on the ironing panel 10. This ensures that the clothes attached to the ironing panel 10 are subjected to uniform suction, ensuring the stretching of the clothes in multiple directions and improving the ironing effect.

[0077] The heating head also includes a boiler assembly 400, which is located inside the housing 100. An air intake channel 401 is formed between the boiler assembly 400 and the housing 100, and the air intake channel 401 is connected to the air inlet channel 201. The boiler assembly 400 has a steam outlet.

[0078] The ironing panel 10 is provided with a steam port 30, and the steam outlet is connected to the steam port 30.

[0079] Understandably, an ironing machine can be equipped with a water tank and a water pump. The water pump delivers water from the tank to the boiler assembly 400, which can generate heat and heat the water to its boiling point to produce high-temperature steam.

[0080] In this way, the high-temperature steam can be discharged sequentially through the steam outlet and steam port 30, thereby using the high-temperature steam to iron out the wrinkles on the clothes.

[0081] The filter assembly 300 includes a support portion 310 and a filter element 330. The support portion 310 is inserted into the housing 100 and is provided with a mounting hole 3101, which is opposite to the air inlet channel 201. The filter element 330 is disposed in the mounting hole 3101. The support portion 310 is provided with an air guide groove 3102, which communicates with the mounting hole 3101.

[0082] By providing a filter 330 within the mounting hole 3101 of the support 310, the intake airflow must first pass through the filter 330. This is understood to mean that when the iron is ironing clothes, the suction assembly 200 generates negative pressure, and the airflow at the ironing panel 10 flows sequentially through the air intake 20, the suction channel 401, and into the air inlet channel 201. For example... Figure 4 The middle arrow indicates the direction of airflow.

[0083] By placing the filter assembly 300 between the suction channel 401 and the air inlet channel 201, it can effectively intercept dust, hair, fabric debris, and other impurities from clothing, preventing them from entering the suction assembly 200 and thus avoiding blockage or damage to the suction assembly 200. This solves the problem of blockage or damage caused by the accumulation of impurities.

[0084] The air guide slot 3102 of the support part 310 is connected to the mounting hole 3101, which increases the airflow path area and guides the airflow evenly through the filter element 330, avoiding excessive local resistance caused by the airflow directly impacting the filter element 330. This reduces the generation of turbulence and eddies, thereby reducing wind resistance and noise. The air guide slot 3102 works in conjunction with the filter element 330, ensuring the filtration effect while reducing the overall wind resistance through the auxiliary ventilation effect of the air guide slot 3102, avoiding the high wind resistance and high noise problems caused by the high-density filtration of traditional filter components 300.

[0085] To further reduce noise, filter element 330 can be made of foam sponge or other porous materials. Of course, filter element 330 can also be a filter screen. It can also be a multi-layered structure of foam sponge and filter screen, capable of intercepting large particles and adsorbing fine dust, adapting to the cleaning needs of different scenarios.

[0086] In one possible implementation, the filter assembly 300 is detachably connected to the housing 100.

[0087] The housing 100 is provided with a plug groove 101, which is connected to the air inlet channel 201, and the support part 310 is inserted into the plug groove 101.

[0088] By providing a connector slot 101 on the housing 100 that communicates with the air inlet channel 201, the support 310 can be stably inserted into the connector slot 101. This design allows for more precise installation of the filter assembly 300, thereby maximizing filtration efficiency and preventing airflow from bypassing the filter element 330 and directly entering the suction assembly 200. The connector slot 101 provides a standardized installation interface for the filter assembly 300, facilitating quick installation, removal, and maintenance. Users can replace the filter element 330 through a plug-and-play operation, improving ease of use.

[0089] The insertion slot 101 extends along a first direction, and the air inlet channel 201 extends along a second direction, with the first direction being perpendicular to the second direction.

[0090] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The X, Y, and Z arrows indicate the directions, with the first direction being the direction indicated by arrow Z and the second direction being the direction indicated by arrow Y. The insertion slot 101 is perpendicular to the air inlet channel 201, allowing the support 310 to be inserted vertically, avoiding direct obstruction of airflow within the air inlet channel 201. Simultaneously, the extension direction of the insertion slot 101 creates spatial isolation with the air inlet channel 201, reducing airflow turbulence and lowering noise and vibration. The insertion slot 101 provides physical restraint for the support 310, preventing the filter assembly 300 from shifting due to vibration or airflow impact during use, ensuring the continuity of the filtration effect.

[0091] In addition, the vertical arrangement of the insertion slot 101 and the air inlet channel 201 saves internal space in the housing 100, making the steaming head structure more compact and suitable for different models of ironing machines.

[0092] When the support part 310 is inserted into the insertion slot 101, the plane where the support part 310 is located is perpendicular to the axis of the air inlet channel 201.

[0093] The plane of the support 310 is perpendicular to the axis of the air inlet channel 201, so that the filter element 330 faces the airflow direction. This layout maximizes the effective area of ​​the filter element 330, directly intercepting impurities such as clothing fibers and dust, reducing the "side leakage" problem caused by airflow deviation, and improving filtration efficiency. The vertical layout forces the airflow to pass directly through the filter element 330, avoiding the airflow detour that may occur in traditional inclined or parallel layouts, ensuring that impurities are effectively trapped.

[0094] Alternatively, this can be understood as follows: when the support 310 is inserted into the insertion slot 101, the axis of the filter element 330 is parallel or approximately parallel to the axis of the air inlet channel 201. When the axis of the filter element 330 is parallel or approximately parallel to the axis of the air inlet channel 201, the airflow can pass through the filter element 330 in a straight line, reducing airflow bends or turbulence and ensuring that impurities are efficiently intercepted. This avoids airflow deviation or localized flow around the filter element 330 due to its tilt, thereby improving the filtration effect.

[0095] The parallel axial direction minimizes resistance as airflow passes through the filter element 330, reducing the impact on the suction force of the suction assembly 200 and ensuring the negative pressure environment required for the normal operation of the iron. Furthermore, the axis of the filter element 330 is aligned with the airflow direction, reducing turbulence and flow disturbances, thereby lowering noise caused by airflow disturbances and improving the user experience.

[0096] Within the plane of the support 310, the ratio of the area of ​​the air guide slot 3102 to the area of ​​the support 310 is greater than or equal to 0.01 and less than 1. This ensures sufficient airflow while preventing excessive air dispersion due to an overly large air guide slot 3102 or a sudden increase in wind resistance due to an overly small area. A ratio of 0.01 to 3102 ensures sufficient airflow capacity and prevents localized turbulence and high wind resistance due to an excessively small area. A ratio less than 1 limits the area proportion of the air guide slot 3102, preventing excessive airflow from bypassing the filter element 330 and weakening the filtration effect. Through a reasonable design of the air guide slot 3102, turbulent flow and eddy current generation when airflow passes through the filter element 330 are reduced, thereby reducing noise caused by wind resistance and the energy consumption of the suction assembly 200.

[0097] In one possible implementation, the filter assembly 300 includes an abutment portion 340 located outside the housing 100. When the filter assembly 300 is in its installed and operational state, the abutment portion 340 abuts against the housing 100. Specifically, the abutment portion 340 is integrally formed with the support portion 310, which improves the structural strength of the abutment portion 340. Furthermore, the higher stability of the filter assembly 300 helps prevent vibration from generating significant noise.

[0098] In one possible implementation, the air guide slot 3102 is located on the side of the support portion 310 facing the air inlet channel 201; and / or, the air guide slot 3102 is located on the side of the support portion 310 away from the air inlet channel 201. When air guide slots 3102 are provided on both sides of the support portion 310 facing or away from the air inlet channel 201, the airflow conduction area can be further increased, adapting to scenarios with different air inlet directions or airflow intensities, and improving the smoothness of airflow.

[0099] In one possible implementation, a fixing part 110 is provided inside the housing 100, and a fixing head 3103 is provided on the support part 310. At least a portion of the fixing head 3103 protrudes relative to the support part 310 in the thickness direction of the support part 310, and the fixing head 3103 is connected to the fixing part 110. Specifically, the fixing head 3103 is located on the side of the support part 310 facing the air inlet channel 201, the fixing part 110 is configured as a recess, and the fixing head 3103 is a snap-fit ​​connector. The fixing head 3103 is inserted into the recess, that is, the snap-fit ​​connector is snapped into the recess.

[0100] The fixing head 3103 protrudes in the thickness direction of the support portion 310 and connects with the fixing portion 110 inside the housing 100, forming a mechanical interlocking or snap-fit ​​structure. By physically limiting the support portion 310, it prevents it from dislodging from the insertion slot 101 under the suction force of the suction assembly 200, restricting the axial displacement of the support portion 310 along the insertion slot 101, and simultaneously resisting lateral loosening caused by airflow impact within the air inlet channel 201. Furthermore, it ensures that the support portion 310 can only be inserted into the insertion slot 101 of the housing 100 in the correct direction, thus preventing incorrect insertion. As the connection point between the support portion 310 and the housing 100, the fixing head 3103 disperses the suction force and airflow impact force of the suction assembly 200 to the fixing portion 110 of the housing 100, avoiding stress concentration at the contact edge between the support portion 310 and the insertion slot 101, and extending the service life of both.

[0101] In one possible implementation, the support portion 310 is provided with a sealing element 500, which is sleeved on the outer side of the support portion 310. When the support portion 310 is inserted into the housing 100, the outer surface of the sealing element 500 abuts against the inner wall of the insertion groove 101.

[0102] When the filter assembly 300 is in operation, the outer surface of the sealing member 500, which is fitted onto the outside of the support portion 310, abuts against the inner wall of the insertion groove 101, forming a physical seal. This effectively blocks unfiltered airflow from entering the air inlet channel 201 through the gap between the support portion 310 and the housing 100, ensuring that all inhaled impurities must pass through the filter element 330, avoiding circumvention or leakage. By forcing airflow through the filter element 330, the risk of the suction assembly 200 being blocked or damaged by impurities entering directly is reduced, while ensuring the cleanliness of the airflow within the air inlet channel 201.

[0103] In practice, the sealing element 500 can be made of rubber, silicone, or other elastic materials. It compensates for the machining tolerances between the support portion 310 and the insertion groove 101, preventing loosening or shaking due to dimensional deviations and enhancing the installation stability of the filter assembly 300. During the operation of the ironing machine, the vibration generated by suction may affect the positioning of the filter assembly 300. The sealing element 500 abuts against the insertion groove 101, fixing the support portion 310 through friction to prevent displacement due to vibration and ensuring the continuity of the filtration effect.

[0104] In one possible implementation, refer to Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the filter assembly 300 includes a protrusion 320 that protrudes towards the air inlet channel 201 relative to the support portion 310, with at least a portion of the protrusion 320 located within the air inlet channel 201. By positioning the protrusion 320 of the filter assembly 300 within the air inlet channel 201, the intake airflow must first pass through the filter element 330, effectively intercepting dust, hair, fabric debris, and other impurities from clothing, preventing them from entering the suction assembly 200 and thus avoiding blockage or damage. Furthermore, this arrangement ensures filtration effectiveness while reducing the impact on airflow resistance, minimizing noise and vibration caused by airflow turbulence, and improving the user experience.

[0105] In one possible implementation, to further reduce airflow noise, the surface of the support portion 310 facing away from the air inlet channel 201 is smoothly connected to the side wall of the suction channel 401. This smooth connection between the support portion 310 and the side wall of the suction channel 401 avoids abrupt airflow changes caused by traditional right-angle or stepped structures. When airflow enters the suction channel 401 from the air inlet channel 201, it can flow along a continuous, smooth path, reducing turbulence and eddies caused by structural abrupt changes, thereby reducing wind resistance and energy consumption. Specifically, this can be achieved by altering the outer surface of the boiler assembly 400 and the inner surface of the shell 100, thus ensuring a smooth connection between the suction channel 401 and the surface of the support portion 310 facing away from the air inlet channel 201.

[0106] In one possible implementation, this application provides an ironing machine, including a main body and a suction head as described above, disposed on the main body. The specific structure of the suction head has been described above and will not be repeated here. An ironing machine equipped with the suction head can effectively trap dust, hair, fabric debris, and other impurities from clothing. This reduces the impact on airflow resistance, lowers noise and vibration caused by airflow turbulence, and improves the user experience.

[0107] The implementation principle of the steaming head and ironing machine according to this application embodiment is as follows: The steaming head includes a housing 100, a suction assembly 200, and a filter assembly 300. The suction assembly 200 is disposed inside the housing 100 and has an air inlet channel 201; the filter assembly 300 includes a support portion 310 and a filter element 330. The support portion 310 is inserted into the housing 100 and is provided with a mounting hole 3101, which is opposite to the air inlet channel 201. The filter element 330 is disposed inside the mounting hole 3101, and the support portion 310 is provided with an air guide groove 3102, which communicates with the mounting hole 3101. By providing the filter element 330 inside the mounting hole 3101 of the support portion 310, impurities such as clothing fibers, dust, and hair are directly intercepted, preventing these substances from entering the suction assembly 200, thereby solving the problem of blockage or damage caused by the accumulation of impurities. The air guide slot 3102 on the support part 310 is connected to the mounting hole 3101, which can increase the airflow path area and guide the airflow evenly through the filter element 330, avoiding excessive local resistance caused by the airflow directly impacting the filter element 330. The design of the air guide slot 3102 disperses the airflow path, reduces the generation of turbulence and eddies, thereby reducing wind resistance and noise.
