Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electric steam generator technology, and in particular to an electric steam generator for garment shaping. Background Technology
[0002] A garment steamer, also called a hanging iron or standing iron, is a machine that allows you to iron clothes and fabrics while they are hanging. The steamer works by continuously contacting the clothes and fabrics with hot steam generated inside, softening the fibers and smoothing them through pulling, pressing, and spraying motions, leaving the clothes and fabrics looking brand new.
[0003] The electric steam generator includes a water tank, which stores water, usually tap water. However, the current tap water treatment standards are low, and it still contains scale and sediment. Furthermore, it cannot be ruled out that the tap water network has not been cleaned for a long time. This accumulation of impurities leads to the entry of impurities into the water pipes and pumps, resulting in a shorter lifespan of related components and poor equipment operation.
[0004] This proposal is put forward in order to improve and optimize the above-mentioned problems or shortcomings. Utility Model Content

[0006] The main unit of the hot steam generator includes a water tank for storing water and an atomizer with a heating element. The water tank is connected to the atomizer through a water supply pipe, which is used to atomize the water in the water tank, heat it to form hot steam, and discharge it from the garment steamer through a pipe.
[0007] The water tank inside the hot steam generator is fixedly equipped with a sealing partition, which divides the water tank into a pre-filter chamber and a post-filter chamber. A custom filter element is detachably installed on the sealing partition. A water tank water inlet threaded port is integrally formed above the water tank inside the hot steam generator, and a sealing cap is threadedly connected to the water tank water inlet threaded port.
[0008] The main unit of the hot steam generator also includes a manual air extraction device for extracting air from the filter chamber of the water tank inside the main unit of the hot steam generator.
[0009] Preferably, the sealing partition has a conical funnel structure, and the customized filter element threaded sealing connection is located at the lowest surface of the sealing partition to facilitate downward filtration and discharge of water.

[0011] Preferably, an upwardly protruding filter element knob is fixed inside the customized filter element, and the customized filter element is screwed onto the sealing partition by holding the filter element knob.
[0012] Preferably, the manual air extraction device includes an air extraction piston cylinder disposed within the main unit of the hot steam generator and a manual pressure rod with a piston disc fixed at its lower end. The manual pressure rod extends completely through the entire length of the device, and a second plastic miniature one-way valve is fixedly disposed at the lower end of the through hole of the manual pressure rod. The flow direction of the second plastic miniature one-way valve is from bottom to top. A top plate is fixedly disposed on the manual pressure rod, and a spring is fitted onto the manual pressure rod. The two ends of the spring abut against the lower end face of the top plate and the air extraction piston cylinder, respectively, thereby pushing the manual pressure rod upward. The lower end of the air extraction piston cylinder is connected to the water tank filter chamber through an exhaust pipe, and a first plastic miniature one-way valve is connected in series in the exhaust pipe. The flow direction of the first plastic miniature one-way valve is from the water tank filter chamber to the air extraction piston cylinder. When the manual pressure rod is pressed down, the air in the air extraction piston cylinder passes through the second plastic miniature one-way valve and is discharged upward. When the spring pushes the manual pressure rod upward, the air in the water tank filter chamber is replenished into the air extraction piston cylinder.
