Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a cleaning machine, specifically a steam cleaning machine. Background Technology
[0002] Steam cleaners are environmentally friendly cleaning devices that use high-temperature, high-pressure steam to clean, disinfect, remove oil and scale. These devices generate high-temperature steam by heating water, which is then sprayed out through nozzles. The heat and impact of the steam break down stains, requiring little or no chemical cleaning agents, such as steam mops and handheld steam cleaners. Some steam cleaners have industrial or commercial applications and are relatively large, requiring wheels for transport; for example, Chinese patent application number 201520529738.7, authorized on December 9, 2015, entitled "Steam Cleaner"; and another example is Chinese patent application number 201820692079.2, authorized on April 2, 2019, entitled "A Portable Sterilizing Steam Cleaner." However, the casing structure design of these products and similar products is suboptimal, resulting in poor stability and safety, and inconvenient production and assembly. Summary of the Invention
[0003] To overcome the aforementioned shortcomings, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a steam cleaner that solves the technical problems of poor box structure design in existing similar products, resulting in poor stability and safety, and inconvenient production and assembly. This objective is achieved through the following technical solution.
[0004] A steam cleaner includes a steam generator housed within its body, which functions as a steam processing and storage tank. The body is equipped with a thermometer and pressure gauge connected to the steam generator. Key structural design features a cylindrical stainless steel tank body. The stainless steel tank body includes a power switch and a power cord. A welded, integrally formed top frame is located on the outer diameter of the top of the stainless steel tank body. A handle is located on one side of the top frame. A steam outlet and a water tank safety cover are located on the top of the stainless steel tank body below the central support hole in the top frame. The opening in the stainless steel tank body at the water tank safety cover is connected to a non-crude water tank via a pipe. The steam generator's water inlet is connected inside the stainless steel drum. The steam nozzle of the steam generator is connected to the steam outlet at the top of the stainless steel drum via a gas pipe. A steam pipe is installed at the steam outlet at the top of the stainless steel drum. The steam generator is placed inside the stainless steel drum through an inner bracket at the bottom plate of the drum opening. The bottom plate, inner bracket, and steam generator are integrated as one unit. The bottom plate is fixedly sealed to the bottom opening of the stainless steel drum. An exhaust fan and four symmetrically arranged casters are located at the bottom of the bottom plate. The exhaust fan, steam generator, and power cord are connected to the power switch. This design creates a gap within the stainless steel drum to facilitate safe and stable operation of the steam generator. This gap allows for the filling or installation of thermal insulation material as needed, further improving the overall safety and stability of the steam cleaning machine.
[0005] The power switch is located on the top of the stainless steel barrel below the hole in the middle of the top frame, and the power cord is led out through the bottom plate at the bottom of the stainless steel barrel.
[0006] The power switch and steam outlet are respectively located on both sides of the water tank safety cover in the middle of the top of the stainless steel barrel. The exhaust fan on the bottom plate is located in the middle of the stainless steel barrel. The opening at the water tank safety cover and the middle of the top of the stainless steel barrel on the outside are convex upwards.
[0007] Air inlets are provided between the casters at the bottom of the base plate, and the air inlets are located on the outer side of the base plate of the inner support inside the stainless steel barrel.
[0008] The bottom of the top frame is fitted and welded to the top outer diameter of the stainless steel barrel. A handle is located on one side of the top frame, extending above the top of the stainless steel barrel, between the perforated frame holes. The top of the top frame has an annular surface. This structure facilitates the welding and fixing of the top frame to the stainless steel barrel, and also allows for easy movement and transport of the steam cleaner through the perforated frame holes.
[0009] This utility model has a reasonable structural design, is easy to manufacture and assemble, and has good safety and stability; it is suitable for use as a steam cleaner and for further improvement of similar products. Attached Figure Description
