Detailed Implementation Methods

[0011] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "center", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", and "outer" indicate the orientation or positional relationship, and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.

[0012] This utility model relates to a handheld garment steamer, including a water tank 30, a handle 20, and an ironing head 10. The handle 20 integrates the ironing head 10 and the water tank 30. The handle 20 is suitable for the operator to hold and has a power switch. The ironing head 10 is located on the handle in a directional direction, suitable for the operator to hold the garment steamer to iron clothes. The water tank 30 is located at the rear end of the ironing head or the rear end of the handle. A water pipe is connected between the water tank 30 and the ironing head 10 to transport water.

[0013] The water tank 30 is connected to the ironing head 10 for water supply. The ironing head 10 includes a housing 11 and a control PCB board 12, a fan 13, a water pump 14, a heater 15 and a metal ironing plate 16 disposed inside the housing 11. The housing 11 and the metal ironing plate 16 are assembled together. The metal ironing plate 16 is encapsulated with the housing 11 from the end of the housing 11 and is fastened to install other internal components.

[0014] The metal ironing plate 16 and heater 15 are integrated into one unit, which compresses the space occupied and reduces the overall volume, resulting in a miniaturized design. The metal ironing plate 16 has two rows of suction holes 161 on its outer surface, with a steam outlet 162 between them. The suction holes 161 directly penetrate the internal space of the fan 13. The fan is installed inside the outer casing 11, which is covered by the metal ironing plate 15. The upper and lower suction holes 161 on the metal ironing plate 16 directly penetrate the metal ironing plate 16 and connect to the interior of the outer casing 11 where the fan 13 is located. When the fan is activated, air is drawn in through the upper and lower suction holes 161. The steam outlet 162 in the middle heats water into steam, which is then sprayed onto the clothes to be ironed.

[0015] The metal ironing plate 16 integrates a thin-plate heater 15 on its inward-facing side. The heater 15 is positioned to cover the area where the steam outlet 162 is located, but does not obstruct the areas where the upper and lower rows of suction holes 161 are located. Water is drawn from the water tank 30 by the water pump 14 and fed into the heater 15 to be heated into steam. Because the heater 15 is located directly opposite the steam outlet 162, the steam generated after heating is ejected through the steam outlet 162.

[0018] A second conduit 18 is provided between the water pump 14 and the water tank 30. As can be seen from the water flow direction, after the water pump 14 starts, it draws water from the water tank 30 through the second conduit 18. After passing through the second conduit 18 and the water pump 14, the water is then transported to the heater 15 for heating via the first conduit 17. The first conduit 17 is connected to the water intake hole 151 on the back or side of the heater 15.

[0019] The water tank 30 is also equipped with a water tank cover 31, and the water tank 30 has a water inlet 32. The water tank cover 31 covers the water inlet 32, and a silicone sealing ring is fitted around the water inlet 32. This is to prevent water leakage and seepage, and to maintain a good airtight seal of the water tank.
