Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of steam garment steamer parts, and in particular to a snap-on garment steamer nozzle. Background Technology

[0002] A garment steamer is a household appliance that uses high-temperature, high-pressure steam to iron clothes. It works by adding water and turning on the power, where the inner heating element vaporizes room-temperature water into high-temperature, high-pressure steam, which is then released through steam pipes and nozzles to soften the fabric fibers. Combined with manual pulling motions, this helps to smooth the clothes.

[0003] A garment steamer nozzle typically consists of a nozzle handle, a nozzle housing, and a nozzle panel. The nozzle handle facilitates gripping and operation, the nozzle housing protects the internal structure and guides steam flow, and the nozzle panel is where steam is released. In existing nozzles, the inside of the nozzle housing is exposed to high-temperature steam, while the outside is exposed to the atmosphere, creating a significant temperature difference. This significant temperature difference can cause the nozzle housing to deform during use. Once the nozzle housing is deformed, steam leakage may occur. Steam leakage not only reduces the efficiency of the garment steamer and affects ironing results, but also increases the difficulty of disassembly and maintenance because the internal structure may already be damaged. This requires operators to spend more time and effort on repairs, or may necessitate replacing the nozzle, thus increasing the operating cost of the garment steamer.

[0004] Therefore, those skilled in the art are dedicated to developing a snap-on garment steamer nozzle that not only reduces nozzle housing deformation but also facilitates disassembly and maintenance. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a snap-on garment steamer nozzle that not only reduces the deformation of the nozzle shell, but also facilitates disassembly and maintenance.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows: A snap-on garment steamer nozzle, including A nozzle assembly having a cavity, the nozzle assembly being connected to an inlet pipe and the inlet pipe communicating with the cavity; A base plate, wherein the nozzle assembly is mounted on the base plate, and a support assembly is provided between the base plate and the end of the nozzle assembly; A nozzle panel, on which a steam injection assembly is mounted, and the nozzle panel is located on the side wall of the base plate and connected to the base plate by a snap-fit ​​assembly; A housing is disposed on the outside of the nozzle assembly and snapped into the base plate.

[0007] The advantages of adopting the above solution are: the nozzle panel and the base plate are connected by a snap-fit ​​assembly, which facilitates the quick disassembly of the nozzle panel and the base plate; The nozzle assembly and the outer edge of the base plate have a support component, which not only reduces the thermal deformation of the nozzle assembly end, but also creates a cavity between the nozzle assembly and the outer wall of the housing, reducing the temperature difference between the inner side and the outer wall of the nozzle assembly and reducing thermal deformation. The snap-fit ​​structure between the housing and the base plate enhances the overall structural strength of the nozzle, while also facilitating the installation and disassembly of the housing.

[0008] Based on the above technical solution, the present invention can be further improved as follows.

[0009] Furthermore, the nozzle assembly includes a nozzle, and the steam inlet pipe is connected to the upper end of the nozzle.

[0010] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that the connection between the upper end of the nozzle and the steam inlet pipe allows steam to enter the cavity directly from the upper end of the nozzle, reducing the loss of steam heat.

[0011] Furthermore, a reinforcing rib is also connected between the outer wall of the nozzle and the steam inlet pipe.

[0012] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned further solution are: the reinforcing rib can effectively enhance the connection strength between the nozzle and the steam inlet pipe. In specific use, the high temperature and high pressure of steam will generate a large stress at the connection between the nozzle and the steam inlet pipe. The reinforcing rib can disperse these stresses and prevent the connection from breaking or loosening due to stress concentration.

[0013] Furthermore, the support assembly includes a support member, which is installed at the bottom of the base plate and connected to the end of the nozzle assembly.

[0014] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned further solution are: the support is installed at the bottom of the base plate and connected to the end of the nozzle assembly, providing additional support for the nozzle assembly. The support can effectively disperse these external forces, reduce the stress on the end of the nozzle assembly, and thus prevent the nozzle assembly from deforming or being damaged due to external forces.

[0015] Furthermore, the buckle assembly includes connecting buckles, and a plurality of connecting buckles are disposed on the nozzle panel. The base plate is provided with a through cavity that mates with the connecting buckles. After the connecting buckle passes through the through cavity, the end of the connecting buckle is bent to connect the nozzle panel to the base plate.

[0016] The advantages of adopting the above-mentioned further solution are: the snap-fit ​​connection method has the characteristics of simple structure and convenient operation, and the operator can easily install the nozzle panel onto the base plate and also quickly disassemble it.

[0017] Furthermore, a retaining ring is provided on the outer edge of the nozzle panel, and the connecting buckle is provided on the retaining ring; The support member and the outer edge of the base plate have engagement grooves that mate with the retaining ring.

[0018] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned further solutions are: the retaining ring and the locking groove increase the connection stability between the nozzle panel and the base plate; the retaining ring can limit the horizontal displacement of the nozzle panel, prevent the nozzle panel from shaking or shifting due to external forces during use, and at the same time reduce steam leakage.

[0019] Furthermore, a sealing ring is provided on the base plate and located on the outer side of the nozzle assembly end. The sealing ring has a sealing groove, and a sealing ring is installed in the sealing groove.

[0020] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned further solutions are that the sealing ring and sealing ring can effectively prevent steam from leaking from the connection between the nozzle assembly and the base plate, thereby improving the sealing performance.

[0021] Furthermore, the steam injection assembly includes a steam injection head, with multiple steam injection heads arrayed in the center of the nozzle panel, and the end of the steam injection head communicating with the cavity.

[0022] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned further solution are: the array arrangement of steam nozzles can achieve uniform distribution and release of steam, so that clothes can be ironed more evenly. Compared with a single steam nozzle or a straight groove steam nozzle, the array of steam nozzles can ensure that the steam covers a wider range on the surface of the clothes, avoiding local under-ironing or over-ironing.

[0023] Furthermore, the housing is provided with a through hole for the steam inlet pipe to pass through, the inner wall of the housing has a retaining element, and the bottom plate is provided with a retaining groove that cooperates with the retaining element.

[0024] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned further solution are: the cooperation between the card and the card slot facilitates quick connection and disassembly of the housing and the base plate, which is not only convenient to operate, but also has high connection strength and stability.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0031] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a snap-on garment steamer nozzle includes a nozzle assembly 1, which has a cavity 2 for containing and guiding steam. The nozzle assembly 1 is connected to a steam inlet pipe 3, which communicates with the cavity 2, to ensure that steam can be directly introduced into the cavity 2 for centralized guidance. The base plate 4 and the nozzle assembly 1 are mounted on the base plate 4. There is a support component 5 between the base plate 4 and the end of the nozzle assembly 1. The support component 5 disperses the force and thermal stress on the end of the nozzle assembly 1 to prevent it from deforming due to high temperature or external force. The nozzle panel 6 is equipped with a steam injection assembly 7 and is located on the side wall of the base plate 4. It is connected to the base plate 4 via a snap-fit ​​assembly 8 for easy maintenance and cleaning. The housing 9 serves as a protective and reinforcing element. It is positioned outside the nozzle assembly 1 and snaps into the base plate 4. Specifically, the housing 9 has a through hole 20 for the steam inlet pipe 3 to pass through. The inner wall of the housing 9 has a retainer 21, and the base plate 4 has a groove 22 that mates with the retainer 21. Through the elastic engagement of the retainer 21 and the groove 22, the housing 9 and the base plate 4 can be quickly assembled and disassembled, while ensuring structural stability after connection.

[0032] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the nozzle assembly 1 includes a nozzle 10, and the steam inlet pipe 3 is integrally formed and fixedly connected to the upper end of the nozzle 10, so that steam can directly enter the cavity 2 from the upper end of the nozzle 10, reducing heat loss and path loss of steam during transmission. A reinforcing rib 11 is also connected between the outer wall of the nozzle 10 and the steam inlet pipe 3. The reinforcing rib 11 is set at the connection between the outer wall of the nozzle 10 and the steam inlet pipe 3, which can effectively disperse the stress caused by the high temperature and high pressure of steam, prevent the connection from breaking or loosening due to stress concentration, and further improve the stability and service life of the connection structure.

[0033] The support component 5 includes a support member 12, which is integrally formed and fixedly installed on the bottom of the base plate 4. The support member 12 is connected to the end of the nozzle assembly 1. The support member 12 provides dual axial and radial support for the nozzle assembly 1, dispersing the external force on the nozzle assembly 1 during use, and mitigating the end deformation tendency caused by high temperature, thus ensuring the structural stability of the nozzle assembly 1.

[0034] The snap-fit ​​assembly 8 includes connecting snap-fits 13, which are made of metal sheets. Multiple connecting snap-fits 13 are set on the nozzle panel 6. The base plate 4 is provided with a through cavity 14 that matches the shape and size of the connecting snap-fits 13. During assembly, the connecting snap-fits 13 are aligned with the through cavity 14 and inserted. After the connecting snap-fits 13 pass through the through cavity 14, their ends are naturally bent or bent by pressing with a tool, so that the connecting snap-fits 13 and the back of the base plate 4 form a locking and limiting action, thereby achieving quick fixation between the nozzle panel 6 and the base plate 4. During disassembly, it is only necessary to bend the bent snap-fit ​​ends in the opposite direction to disengage from the through cavity 14. The operation is convenient and efficient, and no additional tools are required.

[0035] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in another embodiment, a retaining ring 15 is provided on the outer edge of the nozzle panel 6, and a connecting buckle 13 is provided on the retaining ring 15. The outer edges of the support member 12 and the base plate 4 have engaging grooves 16 that cooperate with the retaining ring 15. Through the cooperation between the retaining ring 15 and the engaging grooves 16, not only can the horizontal displacement of the nozzle panel 6 be restricted to prevent it from shaking or shifting due to external forces during use, but the contact sealing area between the nozzle panel 6 and the base plate 4 can also be increased to reduce the risk of steam leakage from gaps and further improve the overall sealing performance.

[0036] A sealing ring 17 is also provided on the base plate 4 and on the outer side of the end of the nozzle assembly 1. The sealing ring 17 has a sealing groove 18 on the side facing the nozzle panel 6. A sealing ring is installed in the sealing groove 18. The sealing ring is tightly fitted with the inner wall of the nozzle panel 6 to form a multi-seal structure, which can effectively prevent the high-temperature steam in the cavity 2 from leaking from the connection between the nozzle assembly 1 and the nozzle panel 6, ensuring that all the steam can be released through the steam jet assembly 7, improving ironing efficiency while avoiding safety hazards caused by steam leakage.

[0037] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the steam jet assembly 7 includes multiple cylindrical steam jet heads 19. The multiple steam jet heads 19 are evenly distributed in a matrix array in the central area of ​​the nozzle panel 6, and the upper end of each steam jet head 19 is connected to the cavity 2, so that the high-temperature steam in the cavity 2 can be released synchronously through each steam jet head 19. Through the array arrangement, it is ensured that the steam can evenly cover the surface of the clothes, avoiding damage to the clothes caused by insufficient ironing in some areas or excessive concentration of steam. At the same time, the setting of multiple steam jet heads 19 increases the steam release area and rate, which can quickly moisten the clothing fibers, improve ironing efficiency and effect, and meet the ironing needs of different materials of clothing.
