Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of clothing ironing appliances, and more particularly to a handheld steam ironing device. Background Technology
[0002] Existing handheld steam irons typically only generate steam and release it through steam vents on the ironing panel for ironing clothes. Due to the impact force of the steam flow, clothes are thrown away from the ironing panel. The farther away the clothes are, the lower the steam pressure and heat become, thus affecting the ironing effect and efficiency. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to solve the aforementioned problems in the existing technology by providing a handheld steam ironing device. This device adds a suction area to the ironing panel and to the body, along with a suction device, a guide cavity, and a uniform air distribution cavity. During operation, the suction device, through the guide cavity and uniform air distribution cavity, creates a balanced suction force in the suction area, drawing the clothes to be ironed towards the ironing panel. This prevents the clothes from being blown away by the impact force of the steam. It not only fully utilizes the steam generated by the steam generator for ironing clothes but also fully utilizes the steam with a certain impact force and heat, reducing the loss of steam impact force and heat due to leakage. This ultimately improves the ironing efficiency and quality of the handheld steam ironing device.
[0004] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is mainly achieved through the following technical solution: a handheld steam ironing device, comprising a body, an integrated heat-conducting ironing panel disposed on the body, a steam generating device disposed in the body, and a steam emission area on the ironing panel, characterized in that:
[0005] The machine body is also equipped with a flow guide cavity, a suction device and a uniform air chamber;
[0006] The air guide cavity has an exhaust port, which faces the side of the machine body;
[0007] The suction device includes a centrifugal suction component and a power component that drives the centrifugal suction component to work.
[0008] The centrifugal suction component is disposed in the flow guide cavity, and the power component is disposed outside the flow guide cavity;
[0009] The ironing panel also has a suction area, and the air distribution cavity is located on the back side of the suction area;
[0010] The flow guiding cavity is connected to the air distribution cavity through a hole or channel extending in the front-to-back direction;
[0011] The suction device is used to draw the clothes to be ironed onto the ironing panel through the suction area, and the steam generator is used to discharge steam through the steam discharge area to iron the clothes on the entire ironing panel.
[0012] The main difference between this technical solution and the existing technology is that: an air suction area is added to the integrated ironing panel, an air suction area, an air suction device, a guide cavity, and a uniform air cavity are added to the machine body.
[0013] Driven by the power unit, the centrifugal suction component creates a centrifugal suction effect on the surrounding air. Through the guide cavity and air distribution cavity, the suction area is equipped with a suction function, effectively drawing the ironing garments towards the ironing panel. The guide cavity is designed to direct airflow only in a specific direction to the suction area, preventing air from being drawn from outside the suction area. The air distribution cavity ensures a uniform suction force from the air inlets in the suction area, thereby ensuring improved suction efficiency and effect. This, in turn, helps ensure the reliability of the suction area in drawing the ironing garments towards the ironing panel.
[0014] When the product involved in this technical solution is in operation, the suction device guides air in a specific direction through the air guide cavity, and then the air equalization cavity balances the suction force, thereby generating a balanced inward airflow in the suction area. The airflow creates a balanced suction force in the suction area towards the ironing panel, which stably and reliably adsorbs the clothes to be ironed onto the ironing panel. This prevents the clothes from being blown away from the ironing panel by the impact force of the steam. It not only makes full use of the steam generated by the steam generator for ironing clothes, but also makes full use of the steam with a certain impact force and heat, reducing the impact force and heat loss of the steam, thereby improving the ironing efficiency and ironing quality of the handheld steam ironing device.
[0015] As a further improvement and supplement to the above technical solution, the present invention adopts the following technical measures:
[0016] Preferably, a filter screen is provided on the back of the ironing panel, the filter screen avoiding the steam emission area, and the filter screen cooperates with the air outlet of the air distribution chamber. The filter screen is provided to prevent dust and impurities in the outside air or cotton lint from falling from the clothing from entering the interior of the steam ironing device with the suction airflow, thus avoiding adverse effects on the suction device, steam generator, and other devices and corresponding electronic components inside the steam ironing device.
[0017] Preferably, the airflow guiding cavity, the air distribution cavity, and the air inlet on the air intake area form an air intake channel, and the steam outlet on the steam generator and the steam discharge hole on the steam ironing area form a steam outlet channel. The air intake channel and the steam outlet channel avoid each other. The mutually avoiding air intake channel and steam outlet channel help to avoid interference between air intake (from the outside to the inside) and steam (from the inside to the outside) with opposite flow directions, thereby helping to ensure air intake efficiency and steam discharge efficiency.
[0018] Preferably, the machine body is provided with a uniform airflow and steam-gathering cover, the uniform airflow cavity is disposed on the uniform airflow and steam-gathering cover, and the uniform airflow and steam-gathering cover is also provided with an isolating steam-gathering ring protruding towards the ironing panel. The ironing panel is mounted on the uniform airflow and steam-gathering cover, and the isolating steam-gathering ring cooperates with the inner wall of the ironing panel, isolating the steam emission area and the suction area. The inner cavity of the isolating steam-gathering ring is connected to the steam outlet channel. The uniform airflow and steam-gathering cover not only facilitates the formation of the uniform airflow cavity, but also helps to gather the steam generated and discharged by the steam generator into the steam emission area, which can make full use of steam and reduce steam waste. Specifically, the steam is gathered by the isolating steam-gathering ring.
[0019] Preferably, the inner wall of the ironing panel has a first connecting ring and a second connecting ring protruding outwards. The first connecting ring mates with the periphery of the ironing panel, and the second connecting ring mates with the outer edge of the steam emission area. The insulating steam-gathering ring is sealed and inserted into the second connecting ring. The outer edge of the air-distributing steam-gathering cover has a third connecting ring that folds towards the ironing panel. The third connecting ring is sealed and inserted into the first connecting ring. The air-distributing cavity is the cavity surrounded by the connecting rings and the insulating steam-gathering ring. The various mating relationships between the first connecting ring, the second connecting ring, the third connecting ring, and the insulating steam-gathering ring help to ensure that the suction channel and the steam channel form mutually non-interfering and closed channels, preventing leakage to the outside. This allows for the full utilization of the airflow generated by the suction device and the steam generated by the steam generator, thereby improving the ironing efficiency and effect of the handheld steam ironing device.
[0020] Preferably, the machine body is also provided with a mounting base, the mounting base has a first air intake, the steam generator and the air intake device are both mounted on the mounting base, the uniform air gathering cover is provided with a second air intake, the hole wall of the second air intake is sealed to the hole wall of the first air intake, and the air outlet of the air intake device is connected to the uniform air chamber in sequence through the first air intake and the second air intake.
[0021] Preferably, the handheld steam iron also includes a steam equalization structure, which ensures that the steam generated by the steam generator flows evenly through the steam discharge area. This steam equalization structure prevents steam leakage, ensuring that all steam acts on the steam discharge area. This reduces steam loss and increases the time the steam remains in the discharge area, thus raising the temperature of the entire ironing panel. Even the suction area maintains a high temperature, allowing it to effectively iron the clothes while simultaneously adsorbing the heat, thereby improving ironing efficiency and results.
[0022] Preferably, the steam equalization structure is disposed at the steam outlet of the steam generator and / or on the inner wall of the ironing panel. The steam equalization structure can be disposed at the air outlet of the boiler of the steam generator, or on the inner wall of the ironing panel, or both at the air outlet of the boiler of the steam generator and on the inner wall of the ironing panel.
[0023] Preferably, the steam equalization structure is a ribbed structure, comprising a first rib ring with a first notch, and a second rib ring disposed around the first rib ring and having a second notch. This allows the steam generated by the steam generator to flow evenly through the first rib ring, exiting through the first notch, and then flowing through the second notch into the area enclosed by the second and first rib rings. This increases the contact time between the steam and the ironing panel, maintaining the temperature of the entire ironing panel. The steam equalization structure ensures a uniformly high temperature in the steam emission area, transferring heat to the suction area. During continuous ironing, the temperature of the suction area gradually approaches that of the steam emission area. This allows the entire ironing panel to both absorb and iron the clothes being ironed, achieving the ironing capacity of a conventional handheld steam iron while also absorbing the clothes being ironed.
[0024] Preferably, the suction area is located at least around the perimeter of the ironing panel, and the area of the suction area is greater than or equal to 50% of the area of the ironing panel. The steam emission area is wholly or partially surrounded by the suction area. When the handheld steam iron is in operation, the suction device effectively draws the clothes to be ironed towards the ironing panel, while the steam generator emits steam with a certain impact force and heat to iron the clothes. During ironing, the clothes are adhered to the ironing panel, thus fully utilizing the steam emitted by the steam generator. This reduces or even eliminates the movement of clothes away from the ironing panel due to the impact force of the steam, minimizing heat loss and improving the ironing efficiency and quality of the handheld steam iron.
[0025] Theoretically, the suction area has several air inlets, which, under the action of the suction device, can generate an airflow from the outside to the inside of the ironing panel, thus adhering the clothes to be ironed to the ironing panel. To improve the adsorption effect, several evenly distributed air inlets are provided in the suction area to ensure that the corresponding parts of the clothes to be ironed receive a balanced adsorption force. To further improve the adsorption effect, the area of the suction area is greater than or equal to 50% of the area of the ironing panel. The ironing panel (especially the component facing the clothes during ironing) can have a flat surface, a curved surface, or two or more intersecting surfaces.
[0026] Preferably, the outer surface of the steam emission area is a plane or an open-mouthed concave surface with a large opening and a small cavity, and the steam emission area is provided with a number of steam emission holes arranged in a row along its length.
[0027] The steam emitted from the row of steam vents is also roughly in a straight line, which maximizes the width of the steam on a given ironing panel. This allows the steam to "scan" the clothes with maximum width each time, avoiding disorderly and repeated ironing of adjacent areas, thus improving ironing efficiency.
[0028] Furthermore, while a flat outer surface of the steam emission area is a feasible technical solution, a recessed outer surface is a preferred solution. When using a handheld steam iron, the recessed area of the steam emission area can contain and store steam, allowing the steam to act on the clothing in the corresponding recessed area for a longer period, rather than simply passing through it quickly. This increases the steam's contact time with the clothing, improving the ironing effect. In addition, this not only helps reduce the loss of heat and impact force from the steam but also concentrates the heat and impact force of the steam in the emission area to a certain extent, further improving ironing effect and efficiency.
[0029] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: 1. By adding a suction area to the ironing panel and a suction device, a guide cavity, and a uniform airflow cavity to the machine body, the suction device, through the guide cavity and uniform airflow cavity, creates a uniform suction force in the suction area during operation. This uniform suction force is used to attract the clothes to be ironed to the ironing panel, preventing them from being blown away by the impact force of the steam. This fully utilizes the steam generated by the steam generator for ironing, not only making full use of the steam with its impact force and heat but also reducing the loss of steam impact force and heat, thereby improving the ironing efficiency and quality of the handheld steam ironing device. 2. The filter screen prevents dust and impurities from the outside air or lint from the clothes from entering the steam ironing device with the airflow. This avoids adverse effects on the internal suction device, steam generator, and other devices and electronic components, helping to maintain the normal operation of the handheld steam ironing device. 3. The design of the uniform airflow and steam-gathering cover not only facilitates the formation of the uniform airflow chamber but also helps to concentrate the steam generated and discharged by the steam generator into the steam discharge area, making full use of the steam and reducing steam waste. Specifically, this is achieved by concentrating the steam through an isolation steam-gathering ring. 4. The steam flow equalization structure ensures a uniformly high temperature in the steam discharge area, and heat is transferred from the steam discharge area to the suction area. During continuous ironing, the temperature of the suction area gradually approaches that of the steam discharge area, allowing the entire ironing panel to both absorb and iron the clothes being ironed. This not only achieves the ironing capacity of a conventional handheld steam iron but also adds the function of absorbing and ironing the clothes. 5. The machine body features mutually avoiding suction and steam discharge channels, which helps to prevent interference between the opposing airflow directions (suction from the outside to the inside) and steam (discharge from the inside to the outside), thus ensuring efficient suction and steam discharge.

[0040] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described in detail below through embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings. In particular, in... Figure 4 In the diagram, the area inside the dashed line A31 is the effective area facing the garment when ironing with the ironing panel 2. The area between dashed lines A31 and B32 is the suction area 6, and the area inside dashed line B32 is the steam emission area 4. In actual products, the suction area 6 and the steam emission area 4 can be represented on a single, complete ironing panel 2, or they can be represented on different components that make up the ironing panel 2.
[0041] Example: A handheld steam ironing device includes a body 1, an integrated heat-conducting ironing panel 2 disposed on the body 1, a steam generating device 3 disposed in the body 1, and a steam emission area 4 on the ironing panel 2.
[0042] The main difference between this technical solution and existing technologies is:
[0043] The body 1 is also provided with a flow guiding cavity 18, a suction device 5 and a uniform air chamber 8;
[0044] The air guide cavity 18 has an exhaust port, which faces the side of the body 1;
[0045] The suction device 5 includes a centrifugal suction component 25 and a power component 26 that drives the centrifugal suction component 25 to work.
[0046] The centrifugal suction component 25 is disposed in the flow guide cavity 18, and the power component 26 is disposed outside the flow guide cavity 18;
[0047] The ironing panel 2 also has a suction area 6, and the air distribution cavity 8 is located on the back side of the suction area 6.
[0048] The flow guiding cavity 18 is connected to the air distribution cavity 8 through a hole or channel extending in the front-back direction;
[0049] The suction device 5 is used to draw the clothes to be ironed onto the ironing panel 2 through the suction area 6, and the steam generator 3 is used to discharge steam through the steam discharge area 4 to iron the clothes on the entire ironing panel.
[0050] The centrifugal suction component 25, driven by the power component 26, creates a centrifugal suction effect on the surrounding air. Through the guide cavity 18 and the air distribution cavity 8, the suction area 6 is equipped with a suction function, enabling the ironing garments to be drawn towards the ironing panel 2. The guide cavity 18 is designed to draw air only in a specific direction to the suction area, preventing air from being drawn from areas outside the suction area. The air distribution cavity 8 ensures that the air inlets 24 on the suction area have a balanced suction force, thereby ensuring improved adsorption efficiency and effect, and thus contributing to ensuring the reliability of the suction area in drawing the ironing garments towards the ironing panel 2.
[0051] When the product involved in this technical solution is working, the suction device 5 guides the air in a specific direction through the air guide cavity 18, and then the air equalization cavity 8 balances the suction force, thereby generating a balanced inward airflow in the suction area 6. The airflow creates a balanced suction force in the suction area 6 towards the ironing panel, which stably and reliably adsorbs the clothes to be ironed onto the ironing panel 2. This prevents the clothes from being blown away from the ironing panel by the impact force of the steam. It not only makes full use of the steam generated by the steam generator for ironing clothes, but also makes full use of the steam with a certain impact force and heat, reducing the impact force and heat loss of the steam, thereby improving the ironing efficiency and ironing quality of the handheld steam ironing device.
[0052] Next, further improvements and additions to the above technical solution will be made:
[0053] In practical applications, a filter screen 27 is provided on the back of the ironing panel 2. The filter screen 27 avoids the steam emission area 4 and cooperates with the air outlet of the air distribution chamber 8. The filter screen 27 is provided to prevent dust and impurities in the outside air or cotton lint from falling from the clothing from entering the interior of the steam ironing device with the suction airflow, thus avoiding adverse effects on the suction device 5, steam generator 3, and other devices and corresponding electronic components inside the steam ironing device.
[0054] In this technical solution, the filter screen 27 is fixed to the back (i.e., the inner wall) of the ironing panel 2. The filter screen 27 can be fixed by adhesive or by a fixing structure, such as a fixing post combined with a fixing post with a swing arm. Specifically, the filter screen 27 has holes through which the fixing post and the fixing post with the swing arm pass. When the filter screen 27 is attached to the inner wall of the ironing panel 2, both the fixing post and the fixing post with the swing arm pass through the corresponding holes. Then, by rotating the fixing post with the swing arm, the filter screen 27 is clamped and fixed to the inner wall of the ironing panel 2. Of course, methods well known to those skilled in the art can also be used for fixing.
[0055] In practical applications, the airflow guiding cavity 18, the air distribution cavity 8, and the air inlet 24 on the air intake area 6 form an air intake channel, while the steam outlet on the steam generator 3 and the steam discharge hole on the steam ironing area 4 form a steam outlet channel. The air intake channel and the steam outlet channel avoid each other. This mutual avoidance of the air intake channel and the steam outlet channel helps to prevent interference between the air intake (from the outside to the inside) and the steam (from the inside to the outside) with opposite flow directions, thereby helping to ensure air intake efficiency and steam discharge efficiency.
[0056] In practical applications, the machine body 1 is provided with a uniform airflow and steam-gathering cover 7, and the uniform airflow cavity 8 is disposed on the uniform airflow and steam-gathering cover 7. The uniform airflow and steam-gathering cover 7 is also provided with an isolation steam-gathering ring 9 protruding towards the ironing panel 2. The ironing panel 2 is mounted on the uniform airflow and steam-gathering cover 7. The isolation steam-gathering ring 9 cooperates with the inner wall of the ironing panel 2 and isolates the steam emission area 4 and the suction area 6. The inner cavity of the isolation steam-gathering ring 9 is connected to the steam outlet channel. The uniform airflow and steam-gathering cover 7 not only facilitates the formation of the uniform airflow cavity 8, but also helps to gather the steam generated and discharged by the steam generator 3 into the steam emission area 4, which can make full use of steam and reduce steam waste. Specifically, the steam is gathered by the isolation steam-gathering ring 9.
[0057] In practical applications, the inner wall of the ironing panel 2 has a first connecting ring 28 and a second connecting ring 29 protruding outwards. The first connecting ring 28 is engaged with the periphery of the ironing panel 2, and the second connecting ring 29 is engaged with the outer extension of the steam emission area 4. The isolation steam-gathering ring 9 is sealed and inserted into the two connecting rings. The outer edge of the uniform airflow steam-gathering cover 7 has a third connecting ring 30 that is folded towards the ironing panel 2. The third connecting ring 30 is sealed and inserted into the first connecting ring 28. The uniform airflow cavity 8 is the cavity surrounded between the connecting rings and the isolation steam-gathering ring 9.
[0058] In this technical solution, the various cooperative relationships between the first connecting ring 28, the second connecting ring 29, the third connecting ring 30 and the isolation steam-gathering ring 9 are conducive to forming mutually non-interfering and closed channels for the air suction channel and the steam channel, avoiding leakage to the outside, and ensuring that the airflow generated by the air suction device 5 and the steam generated by the steam generator 3 can be fully utilized, thereby improving the ironing efficiency and effect of the handheld steam ironing device.
[0059] In practical applications, the body 1 is also provided with a mounting base 10, the mounting base 10 has a first air intake 12, the steam generator 3 and the air intake device 5 are both provided on the mounting base 10, the uniform air gathering cover 7 is provided with a second air intake 13, the hole wall of the second air intake 13 is sealed with the hole wall of the first air intake 12, and the air outlet of the air intake device 5 is connected to the uniform air chamber 8 in sequence through the first air intake 12 and the second air intake 13.
[0060] In practical applications, the handheld steam iron also includes a steam equalization structure, which ensures that the steam generated by the steam generator 3 flows evenly through the steam discharge area 4. This structure prevents steam leakage, ensuring that all steam acts on the steam discharge area 4, reducing steam loss and increasing the time the steam remains in the area. This helps raise the temperature of the entire ironing panel 2, maintaining a high temperature even in the suction area 6. The suction area 6, while absorbing the clothes being ironed, also provides some ironing effect, thus improving ironing efficiency and results.
[0061] In practical applications, the steam equalization structure is installed at the steam outlet of the steam generator 3 and / or on the inner wall of the ironing panel 2. The steam equalization structure can be installed at the air outlet of the boiler of the steam generator 3, or on the inner wall of the ironing panel 2, or both at the air outlet of the boiler of the steam generator 3 and on the inner wall of the ironing panel 2.
[0062] In practical applications, the steam flow equalization structure is a ribbed structure, which includes a first rib ring 20 with a first notch 19, and a second rib ring 21 disposed around the first rib ring 20 and having a second notch 22. The steam generated by the steam generator 3 flows out from the first notch 19 after being evenly distributed through the first rib ring 20, and flows into the area surrounded by the second rib ring 21 and the first rib ring 20 through the second notch 22, thereby increasing the contact time between the steam and the ironing panel 2 to maintain the temperature of the entire ironing panel 2.
[0063] In this technical solution, the steam discharge area 4 is made to have a uniform and high temperature through the steam flow equalization structure, and the heat is transferred to the suction area 6 through the steam discharge area 4. During the relatively continuous ironing process, the temperature of the suction area 6 gradually approaches that of the steam discharge area 4, so that the entire ironing panel 2 has the ability to both absorb the clothes being ironed and participate in ironing as a whole. It not only achieves the ironing ability of the ironing panel 2 in conventional handheld steam ironing devices, but also adds the function of absorbing the clothes being ironed.
[0064] In practical applications, the suction area 6 is located at least around the outer perimeter of the ironing panel 2, and the area of the suction area 6 is greater than or equal to 50% of the area of the ironing panel 2. The steam emission area 4 is wholly or partially surrounded by the suction area 6.
[0065] Among these options, a flat outer surface of the steam emission area 4 is a feasible technical solution, while a recessed outer surface is a preferred solution. When using a handheld steam iron, the steam can be contained and stored in the recessed area of the steam emission area 4, allowing the steam to act on the clothing in the corresponding recessed area for a longer period, rather than simply passing through it quickly. This increases the steam's contact time with the clothing, improving the ironing effect. Furthermore, this not only reduces the loss of heat and impact force from the steam but also concentrates the heat and impact force of the steam in the steam emission area 4 to a certain extent, further enhancing the ironing effect and efficiency.
[0066] In this technical solution, when the handheld steam iron is working, the suction device 5 facilitates the suction area 6 to draw the clothes to be ironed towards the ironing panel 2. Simultaneously, the steam generator 3 discharges steam with a certain impact force and heat to iron the clothes. During the ironing process, the clothes are adhered to the ironing panel 2, thus fully utilizing the steam discharged from the steam generator 3 to iron the clothes. This reduces or even eliminates the movement of clothes away from the ironing panel 2 due to the impact force of the steam, minimizing heat loss and improving the ironing efficiency and quality of the handheld steam iron.
[0067] Theoretically, the suction area 6 has several air inlets 24. Under the action of the suction device 5, as long as an airflow is generated from the outside to the inside of the ironing panel 2, the clothes to be ironed can be adsorbed onto the ironing panel 2. To improve the adsorption effect, several evenly distributed air inlets 24 are provided on the suction area 6, which helps to ensure that the corresponding parts of the clothes to be ironed receive a balanced adsorption force. To further improve the adsorption effect, the area of the suction area 6 is greater than or equal to 50% of the area of the ironing panel 2. The ironing panel 2 (especially the component facing the clothes during ironing) can have a flat surface, a curved surface, or two or more intersecting surfaces.
[0068] In practical applications, the outer surface of the steam emission area 4 is either a flat surface or an open concave surface with a large opening and a small cavity, and the steam emission area 4 is provided with a number of steam emission holes arranged in a row along its length.
[0069] In this technical solution, the way the steam exhaust holes are set is beneficial to improving the ironing effect of each part in the steam exhaust area 4, which in turn is beneficial to improving the ironing effect and ironing efficiency of the handheld steam ironing device.
[0070] In this embodiment, the steam emission area 4 is preferably small ellipse-shaped, and the steam emission holes are arranged in a straight line along the major axis of the ellipse. Therefore, the steam emitted from the arranged steam emission holes is also roughly in a straight line, maximizing the width of the steam on the ironing panel 2 of a given area. This allows the straight-line steam to "scan" the clothes with maximum width each time, avoiding disorderly and repeated ironing of adjacent areas, thus improving ironing efficiency.
[0071] In practical applications, the steam exhaust holes include a large-diameter steam exhaust hole 15 and a small-diameter steam exhaust hole 16. The large-diameter steam exhaust hole 15 is located in the middle of the steam exhaust area 4, and the small-diameter steam exhaust holes 16 are respectively located on both sides of the large-diameter steam exhaust hole 15. The large-diameter steam exhaust hole 15 is located in the middle, which maximizes the amount of steam in the middle of the steam exhaust area 4. The steam then diffuses from the middle to the surrounding areas, which helps to improve the steam utilization rate and thus improves the ironing effect and efficiency of the handheld steam ironing device.
[0072] In this technical solution, it is feasible when the outer surface of the steam emission area 4 is flat, while it is a more preferred solution when the outer surface of the steam emission area 4 is concave. When the handheld steam ironing device is used for ironing, it can contain steam in the concave part of the steam emission area 4, which not only helps to reduce the loss of heat and impact force of the steam, but also concentrates the heat and impact force of the steam in the steam emission area 4 to a certain extent, thereby further improving the ironing effect and ironing efficiency.
[0073] In practical applications, the suction area 6 is located at least around the perimeter of the ironing panel 2, while the steam emission area 4 is located in the central area of the ironing panel 2. Positioning the suction area 6 around the perimeter of the ironing panel 2 allows the clothing to adhere to the steam emission area 4 when it is drawn to the panel. This effectively seals the steam emission area, preventing steam from escaping along the clothing surface and forcing it through the clothing for ironing, thus improving steam utilization and ironing efficiency. Furthermore, it fully utilizes the area of the ironing panel 2, ensuring the entire panel is covered by clothing, thus maximizing the effective ironing area and improving ironing efficiency and results.
[0074] In practical applications, the steam emission zone 4 and the suction zone 6 are distributed on the ironing panel 2 of a single integrated component or separately on different components constituting the ironing panel 2. For the ironing panel 2 of a single integrated component, it is made of a single material. For ironing panels 2 composed of different components, this allows for the use of different materials for different components according to the requirements of steam release and suction. Furthermore, depending on the outline of the ironing panel 2, the shape of the suction zone 6 can be triangular, elliptical, or other shapes. The shape of the suction zone 6 not only matches the elliptical steam emission zone 4 but also allows the ironing panel 2 to have a sufficiently large adsorption area. This helps ensure that a sufficiently strong suction force is formed around the outer periphery of the steam emission zone 4, allowing clothing to be stably adsorbed onto the entire ironing panel 2, and also improves the ironing effect and efficiency of the handheld steam iron.
[0075] In practical applications, to further improve the adsorption effect, the air inlets 24 on the suction area 6 are arranged in at least two rings. If there is still extra space in the suction area 6 after the air inlets 24 are arranged in at least two rings, they are still arranged according to appropriate spacing and arrangement rules, so that the suction area 6 is not only filled with air inlets 24, but also helps to improve the visual effect of the ironing panel 2.
[0076] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to the above embodiments. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
