[0002] As the requirements for comfort in vehicle interiors gradually increase, wool interior fabrics, due to their unique texture and comfort, are gradually becoming an important development direction in the automotive interior field. After wool interior fabrics undergo multiple processes such as weaving, dyeing, molding, and sewing, they still need further ironing and deodorization to remove residual solvents and wool odor.

[0003] Patent CN221398368U discloses an ironing device for garment manufacturing. Steam is delivered to a steam generator through a steam pipe and then released from the steam generator, which allows the steam to be released over a wider area, thereby improving the quality of garment ironing.

[0004] Although the aforementioned equipment can iron fabrics with steam, it cannot effectively remove the residual wool odor and flame retardant solvent smell from wool lining fabrics, resulting in wool lining fabrics with a strong residual odor, which affects the user experience during subsequent use. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the purpose of this invention is to provide a device for ironing and deodorizing wool interior fabrics for vehicles. This device utilizes a vacuum environment to continuously circulate steam through the wool interior fabric, thereby simultaneously removing residual wool odor and flame retardant solvent odor during the fabric setting process and improving the subsequent user experience.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: A device for ironing and deodorizing wool interior fabrics for vehicles includes a base, an ironing assembly, a steam assembly, and a vacuum assembly connected to the ironing assembly. The base includes a mounting box and a pipe box. The ironing assembly includes an ironing chamber disposed between the mounting box and the pipe box, and an exhaust pipe connected to the ironing chamber. The steam assembly includes a steam generator and a steam supply pipe connected to the ironing chamber. The vacuum assembly includes a vacuum pump and an inlet pipe and an exhaust pipe respectively connected to the vacuum pump. The ironing chamber includes an outer chamber and an inner chamber rotatably disposed inside the outer chamber. One end of the inner chamber is connected to the exhaust pipe, and the other end is connected to the steam supply pipe.

[0007] The present invention is further configured such that: mounting plates are provided on both sides of the outer cabin, and the mounting plates are respectively connected to the side walls of the mounting box and the pipe laying box.

[0008] The present invention is further configured such that: the ironing assembly also includes a first motor installed inside the mounting box, the output end of the first motor is connected to a rotating rod, and the rotating rod is connected to the inner chamber.

[0009] The present invention is further configured such that: the steam generator is installed inside the installation box, one end of the steam generator is connected to the steam transmission pipe, and the other end of the steam generator is connected to the water inlet pipe.

[0010] The present invention is further configured such that: the water inlet pipe extends to the top of the pipe distribution box, and a water inlet valve is provided on the water inlet pipe.

[0011] The present invention is further configured such that: the vacuum pump is provided with an air inlet and an air outlet, the air inlet is connected to an air inlet pipe, and the air outlet is connected to an air outlet pipe.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: Before processing, a vacuum pump is used to evacuate the ironing chamber, removing cold air and odor molecules from the gaps between the wool lining fabric fibers.

Detailed Implementation

[0021] To make the technical problem to be solved, the technical solution, and the beneficial effects of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. This drawing is a simplified schematic diagram, illustrating only the basic aspects of the present utility model, and therefore only shows the components relevant to the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0022] Please refer to Figure 1-2 A device for ironing and deodorizing wool interior fabrics for vehicles includes a base 1, an ironing component 2, a steam component 3 and a vacuum component 4 connected to the ironing component 2. After the sewn wool interior fabric is fixed with a bracket, it is placed inside the ironing component 2. First, the vacuum component 4 is used to evacuate the ironing component 2, and then the steam component 3 introduces steam into the ironing component 2. After evacuating the vacuum again, steam is introduced again. After repeated cycles, the wool interior fabric inside the ironing component 2 is shaped and the residual wool odor and flame retardant solvent smell are removed.

[0023] Please refer to Figure 1-2 The base 1 includes a mounting box 11 and a tube laying box 12. Both the mounting box 11 and the tube laying box 12 are hollow structures. The mounting box 11 and the tube laying box 12 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the ironing assembly 2.

[0024] Please refer to Figure 2-6The ironing assembly 2 includes an ironing chamber 24 disposed between the mounting box 11 and the hose distribution box 12, and an exhaust pipe 27 communicating with the ironing chamber 24. The ironing chamber 24 includes an outer chamber 241 and an inner chamber 242 rotatably disposed inside the outer chamber 241. The outer chamber 241 has a cylindrical structure, with mounting plates 25 on both sides. The outer chamber 241 and the mounting plates 25 are fixedly connected. Specifically, multiple connecting rods 26 are provided between the outer chamber 241 and the mounting plates 25, with each end of the connecting rod 26 connected to the mounting plate 25. The mounting plates 25 are connected to the side walls of the mounting box 11 and the hose distribution box 12, thereby achieving the connection between the ironing chamber 24 and the mounting box 11 and the hose distribution box 12. The outer diameter of the inner chamber 242 is adapted to the inner diameter of the outer chamber 241, allowing the inner chamber 242 to rotate relative to the outer chamber 241. The inner compartment 242 has slots for fixing brackets. After the wool interior fabric is sewn, it can be placed inside the inner compartment 242 after being fixed with the brackets. The ironing assembly 2 also includes a first motor 21 installed inside the mounting box 11. The output end of the first motor 21 is connected to a rotating rod 23, and a coupling 22 is provided between the first motor 21 and the rotating rod 23. The rotating rod 23 is connected to the inner compartment 242. Specifically, the outer compartment 241 is connected to the mounting plate 25 on both sides, and several through holes are opened on the side walls of the inner compartment 242. A bearing is provided at the connection between the rotating rod 23 and the mounting plate 25. The rotating rod 23 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the inner compartment 242, so that the inner compartment 242 can rotate relative to the outer compartment 241 under the drive of the rotating rod 23. At the same time, steam can enter the inner compartment 242 through the through holes on both sides of the inner compartment 242. The first motor 21 can drive the rotating rod 23 to rotate. During the rotation, the inner compartment 242 rotates relative to the outer compartment 241, so that the wool interior fabric placed inside the inner compartment 242 rotates synchronously, making it easier for the wool interior fabric to come into more full and even contact with the steam.

[0025] One end of the inner compartment 242 is connected to the exhaust pipe 27, which is located on the side of the ironing chamber 24 away from the first motor 21. The exhaust pipe 27 passes through the side wall of the outer compartment 241 and communicates with the interior of the inner compartment 242, allowing steam inside the inner compartment 242 to be discharged through the exhaust pipe 27. A vacuum solenoid valve 28 is installed on the exhaust pipe 27, which controls the discharge of steam from the exhaust pipe 27.

[0026] Please refer to Figure 2-6The steam assembly 3 includes a steam generator 31 and a steam supply pipe 34 communicating with the ironing chamber 24. The steam generator 31 is installed inside the mounting box 11, with one end connected to the steam supply pipe 34 and the other end connected to a water inlet pipe 32. The construction of the steam generator 31 is a well-known technique to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here. The water inlet pipe 32 extends from the mounting box 11, runs along the ironing chamber 24, and extends to the top of the pipe distribution box 12. The water required for heating the steam can be transported to the steam generator 31 through the water inlet pipe 32. A water inlet valve 33 is provided on the water inlet pipe 32, and the supply and stop of water flow in the water inlet pipe 32 can be controlled by opening or closing the water inlet valve 33. One end of the inner compartment 242 is connected to the steam supply pipe 34. Specifically, the steam supply pipe 34 is located on the side of the ironing chamber 24 of the inner compartment 242 near the first motor 21. The steam supply pipe 34 passes through the mounting plate 25 on the side wall of the outer compartment 241 and communicates with the interior of the inner compartment 242 through a through hole. The water required for heating the steam is transported to the steam generator 31 through the water inlet pipe 32, heated to form steam, and then transported to the interior of the inner compartment 242 through the steam supply pipe 34. The steam is used to iron the wool interior fabrics inside the inner compartment 242. A steam solenoid valve is installed on the steam supply pipe 34, which controls the steam supply.

[0027] Please refer to Figure 2-6 The vacuum assembly 4 includes a vacuum pump 41 and an inlet pipe 43 and an outlet pipe 45, which are respectively connected to the vacuum pump 41. The vacuum pump 41 is located on one side of the pipe distribution box 12, and a second motor 46 is connected to one end of the vacuum pump 41, which can drive the vacuum pump 41 to run. The vacuum pump 41 is provided with an inlet port 42 and an outlet port 44. The inlet port 42 is connected to the inlet pipe 43, and the outlet port 44 is connected to the outlet pipe 45. The inlet pipe 43 is connected to the exhaust pipe 27. When the vacuum solenoid valve 28 is in the open state, the operation of the vacuum pump 41 can drive the steam in the exhaust pipe 27 to be transported to the inlet pipe 43. After being processed by the vacuum pump 41, it is discharged through the outlet pipe 45, thereby forming a vacuum space in the ironing chamber 24.

[0028] Specifically, the sewn wool lining fabric is first fixed with a bracket and placed inside the inner chamber 242. The vacuum solenoid valve 28 is opened, and the vacuum pump 41 operates, rapidly extracting air from the ironing chamber 24 through the exhaust pipe 27 and the inlet pipe 43. Under low pressure, air, moisture, and odor molecules from the surface and micropores of the wool lining fabric are quickly extracted, and the thermal resistance layer is removed, creating conditions for rapid steam penetration in the next step. The vacuum solenoid valve 28 is then closed. The water inlet valve 33 is opened, and the water required for heating the steam is delivered to the steam generator 31 through the water inlet pipe 32 to heat and form steam. The steam solenoid valve is opened, and the steam is delivered to the ironing chamber 24 through the steam delivery pipe 34, filling the ironing chamber 24 with saturated steam. Since the cold air has been evacuated, the steam directly contacts the wool lining fabric, causing the fibers to instantly absorb moisture and heat up, the α-helical structure to unfold, and internal stress to be eliminated. The wool lining fabric is shaped according to the bracket, thus using steam to iron the wool lining fabric inside the inner chamber 242. During the ironing process, the first motor 21 drives the inner chamber 242 to rotate relative to the outer chamber 241 through the rotating rod 23, thereby causing the wool interior fabric placed inside the inner chamber 242 to rotate synchronously, so that the wool interior fabric can be more fully and evenly contacted with the steam.

[0029] After maintaining the steam for 15 seconds, a vacuum is drawn again to extract the steam along with odor molecules and residual flame retardant monomers released from the wool lining fabric fibers. Simultaneously, as the steam is extracted, the temperature inside the ironing chamber 24 drops rapidly, helping to set the shape of the wool lining fabric. Repeating this process 2-4 times will effectively improve odor removal efficiency.

[0030] Before processing, a vacuum pump 41 is used to evacuate the ironing chamber 24, removing cold air and odor molecules from the gaps between the wool lining fabric fibers. Then, steam is introduced into the ironing chamber 24 through the steam pipe 34. The steam directly and evenly penetrates the wool lining fabric, facilitating its ironing and setting. Subsequently, the vacuum pump 41 is used again to evacuate the ironing chamber 24, allowing steam, residual odor molecules, and flame retardant monomers to be transported through the exhaust pipe 27 and the air inlet pipe 43, and discharged through the exhaust pipe 45. During the setting process of the wool lining fabric, residual wool odor and flame retardant solvent smell are simultaneously removed.
