Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ironing machines, and more specifically to a box-type ironing machine with an ironing board. Background Technology
[0002] Ironing is the process of using heated tools to smooth out wrinkles in clothing. The principle is that while the clothing is flattened by the pressure of the iron, the high temperature loosens the hydrogen bonds in the fibers, allowing the garment to maintain its shape and smoothness after cooling. Water vapor and ironing temperature are key factors in the ironing process. Traditional irons rely on an ironing board for ironing, and they typically have separate water and electrical lines to reduce concerns about electric shock or short circuits.
[0003] However, on the one hand, whether it's a built-in ironing board or an additional one, the presence of an ironing board places significant space requirements on the overall storage of ironing equipment; on the other hand, even if the water supply line and power line of the iron are set up independently, in actual use, the iron's socket and water source are usually placed close together for ease of ironing, making it difficult to ensure the safety of ironing operations; in addition, with the water supply line and power line of the iron set up independently, the space requirements will be further increased, both when the iron is in use and when it is stored.
[0004] Therefore, with the continuous development of technology and the pursuit of minimizing product space, current ironing machines tend to integrate the water supply pipes and power lines connected to the iron into the same water and electricity wiring, and eliminate the ironing board. For example, popular small garment steamers do not have an ironing board, and the connection between the iron / head and the main unit also integrates the water supply pipes and power lines. In this way, on the one hand, the storage space requirements of the ironing machine can be reduced; on the other hand, the water tank located in the main unit, based on the main unit's water supply pipe design, can avoid the water in the tank coming into contact with the main unit's circuit board and power plug. Furthermore, the design of integrating the water supply pipes and power lines between the iron / head and the main unit into the same water and electricity wiring simplifies the visual appearance of the ironing machine and facilitates ironing operations. While eliminating the ironing board and integrating the water and power supply lines between the iron / head and the main unit into a single conduit offers numerous advantages, the smoothing efficiency of steaming under the weight of the garment is relatively low. Furthermore, the smoothing effect is inconsistent for different garments or different parts of the same garment; for example, it's difficult to smooth the cuffs of hanging trousers. Additionally, the integrated water and power supply lines are unsuitable for storage using an automatic spiraling tray because they require both sealing of the water supply line and insulation of the power line. Currently, in steamers that integrate the water and power supply lines into a single conduit, the conduit is typically manually spiraled or wrapped, resulting in cumbersome storage, lack of dust protection when stored, and significant space consumption. Utility Model Content
[0005] One objective of this invention is to provide a box-type ironing machine with an ironing board. The box-type ironing machine features a flip-up storage structure for the ironing head, simplifying the removal of the ironing head while avoiding the protrusion of the ironing head relative to its stored state, thus improving the aesthetics of the ironing machine in use. Furthermore, it reduces the likelihood of electrical wiring and pipes, as well as the user, being tripped or injured by the protruding structure, thereby ensuring the safety of the ironing machine.
[0006] Another objective of this utility model is to provide a box-type ironing machine with an ironing board. The box-type ironing machine has a frame, and the ironing board is designed with a three-section structure, having a middle section and two wings. The middle section of the ironing board is fixed to the top of the frame to serve as the top surface of the box-type ironing machine. The two wings of the ironing board are pivotally arranged on the left and right sides of the top surface, respectively, so that they can be folded up and stored as the left and right sides of the box-type ironing machine connected to the top surface. This allows the box-type ironing machine to facilitate ironing operations while also providing a box-like storage form in its folded-up state, based on the ironing board's folding mechanism. This improves the visual appeal of the box-type ironing machine in its stored state and reduces its space occupation.
[0007] Another objective of this invention is to provide a box-type ironing machine with an ironing board, wherein the box-type ironing machine further comprises a flip cabinet, the flip cabinet being rotatably arranged within the frame along a left-right pointing flipping axis, wherein the flip cabinet defines a receiving cavity with an opening and has a cabinet door extending obliquely to the side end of the opening of the receiving cavity relative to the opening of the receiving cavity, wherein in the stored state of the box-type ironing machine, the receiving cavity serves as a receiving cavity for the ironing head, and the cabinet door of the flip cabinet is sealed on one side of the box-type ironing machine located between the left and right sides, such that when the flip cabinet is flipped based on an outward pulling operation at the top of the cabinet door or an inward pushing operation at the bottom of the cabinet door, the opening of the receiving cavity can be positioned facing that side of the box-type ironing machine to facilitate the removal of the ironing head.
[0008] Another objective of this utility model is to provide a box-type ironing machine with an ironing board, wherein the box-type ironing machine further includes a water and electricity cable management tray disposed on one side of the flip cabinet within the frame. The water and electricity cable management tray is used for the automatic coiling and storage of the water and electricity cable integrated with the power supply line of the ironing head. The receiving cavity has a cable outlet suitable for the water and electricity cable of the ironing head to pass through. This simplifies the storage operation of the water and electricity cable of the box-type ironing machine, thereby improving the convenience of the box-type ironing machine. At the same time, the automatic coiling and storage of the water and electricity cable simplifies and improves the visual appearance of the box-type ironing machine in the stored state, optimizes the dustproof effect of the box-type ironing machine in the stored state, and reduces the space occupied by the box-type ironing machine in the stored state.
[0009] Another objective of this invention is to provide a box-type ironing machine with an ironing board, wherein the water and electricity cable storage tray can automatically rotate to store the water and electricity cables of the ironing head. Correspondingly, the water and electricity cable storage tray needs to maintain the continuity of the water supply line and the power supply line while rotating. Based on the structural design of the water and electricity cable storage tray, the water and electricity cable storage tray can maintain the continuity of the water supply line and the power supply line while rotating, and also takes into account the insulation of the power supply line relative to the water supply line, thus achieving the automatic rotating storage function while ensuring the safety of the box-type ironing machine.
[0010] Another objective of this invention is to provide a box-type ironing machine with an ironing board, wherein the water and electricity cable storage tray has a cable winding turntable and a traction reset device. The cable winding turntable is rotatably arranged, and the traction reset device has a traction end connected to the cable winding turntable to pull the traction end from the traction reset device based on the rotation of the cable winding turntable. The traction reset device is also configured to generate elastic potential energy based on the stretching of the traction end. Thus, when the cable winding turntable is circling and storing the water and electricity cable of the ironing head, the cable winding turntable rotates based on the pulling of the water and electricity cable of the ironing head, thereby pulling the traction end from the traction reset device. When it is necessary to store the water and electricity cable of the ironing head, the self-reset of the traction end drives the cable winding turntable to reset and rotate, thereby circling and storing the water and electricity cable of the ironing head.
[0011] Another objective of this utility model is to provide a box-type ironing machine with an ironing board, wherein the water and electricity cable storage tray further comprises a base, a first water supply shaft pipe fixed to the base, a second water supply shaft pipe fixed to the take-up turntable, and a plurality of conductive electrodes respectively arranged on the base and the take-up turntable. The first water supply shaft pipe and the second water supply shaft pipe are rotatably connected by an interlocking manner, forming a water supply channel passing through the base and the take-up turntable while simultaneously creating a rotatable structure for the take-up turntable. A rotational conduction space is defined between the base and the take-up turntable. The shaft pipe with the relatively larger outer diameter among the interlocking first and second water supply shaft pipes is defined as the parent shaft pipe. The first and second water supply shaft pipes are configured based on their respective pipe diameters and lengths. The design ensures that the insertion end of the female shaft tube is located outside the rotational conduction space, so that the first water supply shaft tube and the second water supply shaft tube are rotatably connected by insertion. This allows the rotational conduction space to be insulated relative to the water supply channel passing through the chassis and the take-up turntable. Correspondingly, when the corresponding conductive electrodes arranged on the chassis and the take-up turntable maintain electrical conductivity based on the sliding conductive connection structure set in the rotational conduction space, the insulation of the sliding conductive connection structure relative to the water supply channel passing through the chassis and the take-up turntable is ensured. Thus, when the take-up turntable is rotatable, the water supply pipe and power supply line of the water and electricity cable storage tray are maintained respectively, while taking into account the insulation of the power supply line relative to the water supply pipe. This achieves the automatic spiral storage function while also ensuring the safety of the box-type ironing machine.
[0012] Another objective of this invention is to provide a box-type ironing machine with an ironing board, wherein the take-up turntable has a first protective ring extending around the second water supply shaft pipe toward the chassis, so as to ensure the waterproof and dustproof performance of the rotation conduction space relative to the outside world based on the setting of the first protective ring, and correspondingly improve the insulation performance of the rotation conduction space relative to the outside world to ensure the safety of the box-type ironing machine.
[0013] Another objective of this invention is to provide a box-type ironing machine with an ironing board, wherein the end of the first protective ring connected to the take-up turntable has a smaller outer diameter than the end near the base, so that water droplets that accidentally flow to the outer edge of the first protective ring do not pass through the rotational conduction space under their own gravity, thus improving the waterproof performance of the rotational conduction space relative to the outside world based on the setting of the first protective ring.
[0014] Another objective of this invention is to provide a box-type ironing machine with an ironing board, wherein the chassis has a second protective ring extending around the first water supply shaft pipe toward the take-up turntable, so as to further ensure the waterproof and dustproof performance of the rotation conduction space relative to the outside world based on the setting of the second protective ring, and correspondingly further improve the insulation performance of the rotation conduction space relative to the outside world to ensure the safety of the box-type ironing machine.
[0015] Another objective of this invention is to provide a box-type ironing machine with an ironing board, wherein the end of the second protective ring connected to the chassis has a smaller outer diameter than the end near the take-up turntable, so that water droplets that accidentally flow to the outer edge of the second protective ring do not pass through the rotational conduction space under their own gravity, thus improving the waterproof performance of the rotational conduction space relative to the outside world based on the setting of the second protective ring.
[0016] Another objective of this invention is to provide a box-type ironing machine with an ironing board, wherein the water and electricity cable storage tray further has a protective cover. The protective cover is fixedly covered on the side of the cable winding turntable opposite to the base. The cable winding turntable has an isolation layer extending around the second water supply shaft pipe toward the protective cover. Corresponding to the water and electricity cable storage tray, with the isolation layer as the bottom, together with the cable winding turntable and the protective cover, a cable winding groove suitable for coiling and storing the water and electricity cable pipes of the box-type ironing machine is formed. Based on the setting of the isolation layer, the conductive electrodes set on the cable winding turntable can be isolated from the user, thereby ensuring the safety of the box-type ironing machine.
[0017] Another objective of this utility model is to provide a box-type ironing machine with an ironing board, wherein the take-up turntable further has a guide layer extending around the second water supply shaft pipe toward the protective cover within the isolation layer. A cable routing groove is formed between the guide layer and the isolation layer, suitable for fixing a section of the water and electricity cable routing pipe of the box-type ironing machine near its end. Thus, in the rotatable state of the take-up turntable, the stability of the water supply connection and power supply connection between the water and electricity cable routing pipe and the second water supply shaft pipe and the conductive electrode on the take-up turntable is ensured by fixing the section of the water and electricity cable routing pipe housed in the cable routing groove, thereby ensuring the reliability and service life of the box-type ironing machine.
[0018] To achieve at least one of the above objectives, this utility model provides a box-type ironing machine with an ironing board. The box-type ironing machine includes a frame, an ironing board, an ironing head, and a rotating cabinet. The ironing board is fixed to the top of the frame. The rotating cabinet is rotatably arranged within the frame along a left-right rotating axis. The rotating cabinet defines a receiving cavity with an opening and has a cabinet door that extends obliquely relative to the opening of the receiving cavity at a side end. The rotating axis, the receiving cavity, and the cabinet door are also included. The design of the relative positional relationship satisfies the following conditions: in the storage state of the box-type ironing machine, the cabinet door of the flip cabinet is blocked on one side of the box-type ironing machine located between the left and right sides. When the flip cabinet is flipped based on the flipping operation of the cabinet door, the cabinet door can be flipped to a state where it is hidden inside the frame and the opening of the receiving cavity is facing the side of the box-type ironing machine. Correspondingly, when the receiving cavity is used as the storage cavity for the ironing head, the ironing head can be taken out and the cabinet door is prevented from protruding from this side and affecting the ironing operation.
[0019] In one embodiment, the flip cabinet further includes an ironing head storage recess disposed in the receiving cavity, the ironing head storage recess having a shape design that matches the ironing surface of the ironing head.
[0020] In one embodiment, at least a portion of the ironing head storage recess is provided with magnetic attraction.
[0021] In one embodiment, the ironing head is equipped with a magnetic safety valve, wherein the magnetic safety valve is a water valve or an electric valve that can switch states under the action of magnetic force.
[0022] In one embodiment, the ironing head is configured to receive water and power through a water and electricity wiring system integrating water and power supply lines. The box-type ironing machine further includes a water and electricity wiring storage tray mounted on the frame. The water and electricity wiring storage tray includes a base, a winding turntable, a traction and reset device, a first water supply shaft pipe fixed to the base, a second water supply shaft pipe fixed to the winding turntable, and a plurality of conductive electrodes respectively disposed on the base and the winding turntable. The first water supply shaft pipe and the second water supply shaft pipe are rotatably connected by an insert, such that the winding turntable is rotatably disposed relative to the base about the first water supply shaft pipe as a pivot axis, forming a water supply channel passing through the base and the winding turntable. The traction and reset device is disposed on the base and has a traction end connected to the winding turntable, so as to pull the traction end from the traction and reset device based on the rotation of the winding turntable. The traction and reset device is configured to... The stretching of the traction end generates elastic potential energy, so that when the take-up turntable is swirling to house the water and electricity wiring of the ironing head, the take-up turntable is rotated by pulling on the water and electricity wiring of the ironing head, thereby stretching the traction end from the traction reset device. When it is necessary to house the water and electricity wiring of the ironing head, the self-reset of the traction end drives the take-up turntable to reset and rotate, thereby swirling to house the water and electricity wiring of the ironing head. A rotational conduction space is defined between the chassis and the take-up turntable. The corresponding conductive electrodes arranged between the chassis and the take-up turntable maintain electrical conduction in the rotatable state of the take-up turntable based on the sliding conductive connection structure set in the rotational conduction space. The first water supply shaft tube and the second water supply shaft tube, which are interlocked, are defined as the female shaft tube with a relatively larger outer diameter. The first water supply shaft tube and the second water supply shaft tube are designed based on their respective pipe diameters and lengths to ensure that the interlocking end of the female shaft tube is located outside the rotational conduction space.
[0023] In one embodiment, the take-up turntable has an isolation layer extending around the second water supply shaft pipe on the side opposite to the chassis and a guide layer extending around the second water supply shaft pipe within the isolation layer, wherein a cable groove is formed between the guide layer and the isolation layer for fixing a section of the water and electricity cable conduit near the end of the ironing head.
[0024] In one embodiment, the water supply connection port of the water supply pipe in the water and electricity wiring pipe for connecting the ironing head on the second water supply shaft pipe is provided in the lateral extension of the second water supply shaft pipe.
[0025] In one embodiment, the take-up turntable further has a protective ring extending about the second water supply shaft toward the chassis.
[0026] In one embodiment, the box-type ironing machine further includes a flip-up cabinet protective cover disposed within the frame. The flip-up cabinet protective cover is disposed in the form of a cylindrical tube with a side opening. The flip-up cabinet is flip-able and disposed within the flip-up cabinet protective cover. Corresponding to the stored state of the box-type ironing machine, the cabinet door of the flip-up cabinet covers the side opening of the flip-up cabinet protective cover, and after the flip-up cabinet is flipped, the cabinet door is hidden inside the flip-up cabinet protective cover. The opening of the receiving cavity is directly opposite the side opening of the flip-up cabinet protective cover.
[0027] In one embodiment, the ironing board is designed with a three-section structure having a middle section and two wings. The middle section of the ironing board is fixed to the top of the frame to serve as the top surface of the box-type ironing machine. The two wings of the ironing board are pivotally arranged on the left and right sides of the top surface, respectively, so that they can be folded up and stored in the box-type ironing machine in the stored state, serving as the left and right sides of the box-type ironing machine respectively connected to the top surface.

[0037] The following description is intended to disclose the present invention so that those skilled in the art can implement it. The preferred embodiments described below are merely examples, and other obvious variations will occur to those skilled in the art. The basic principles of the present invention defined in the following description can be applied to other embodiments, modifications, improvements, equivalents, and other technical solutions that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
[0038] Those skilled in the art should understand that in the disclosure of this utility model, the terms "longitudinal", "lateral", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They 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. Therefore, the above terms should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.
[0039] It is understood that the term "a" should be understood as "at least one" or "one or more", that is, in one embodiment, the number of an element can be one, while in another embodiment, the number of the element can be multiple, and the term "a" should not be understood as a limitation on the number.
[0040] This utility model provides a box-type ironing machine with an ironing board. The box-type ironing machine features a flip-up storage structure for the ironing head, simplifying the removal of the ironing head. This design avoids the problem of the ironing head protruding from the ironing machine's structure when removed, which would otherwise be caused by opening a door or pulling out the ironing head. This improves the aesthetics of the ironing machine during use and reduces the likelihood of electrical wiring and the user getting caught on the protruding structure, thus ensuring the ironing machine's safety.
[0041] Specifically, please refer to the accompanying drawings in the specification of this utility model. Figures 1 to 8As shown, the specific structure of the box-type ironing machine according to an embodiment of the present invention is illustrated. The box-type ironing machine includes a frame 10, an ironing board 20, an ironing head 30, and a rotating cabinet 40. The rotating cabinet 40 is rotatably arranged within the frame 10 along a left-right rotating axis. The rotating cabinet 40 defines a receiving cavity 401 with an opening 4011, and has a cabinet door 402 inclined relative to the opening 4011 at the side end of the receiving cavity 401. The relative positional relationship of the pivot, the accommodating cavity 401, and the cabinet door 402 is designed to accommodate the ironing head 30 in its stored state. The accommodating cavity 401 serves as a storage cavity for the ironing head 30. The cabinet door 402 of the flip cabinet 40 is located on one side of the ironing machine between its left and right sides. When the flip cabinet 400 is flipped based on an outward pulling operation at the top of the cabinet door 402 or an inward pushing operation at the bottom of the cabinet door 402, it can be rotated as follows: Figure 2 The diagram shows the cabinet door 402 flipped up so that the opening 4011 of the receiving cavity 401, hidden within the frame 10, faces the side of the box-type iron. When the receiving cavity 401 is used as a storage cavity for the ironing head 30, the ironing head 30 can be removed without the cabinet door 402 protruding from this side. This improves the aesthetics of the box-type iron in use and reduces the likelihood of electrical wiring and the user being tripped by protruding structures, thus ensuring the safety of the box-type iron.
[0042] Specifically, in this embodiment of the present invention, the ironing board 20 is designed with a three-section structure, having a middle section 201 and two wings 202. The middle section 201 of the ironing board 20 is fixed to the top of the frame 10 to serve as the top surface of the box-type ironing machine. The two wings 202 of the ironing board 20 are pivotally arranged on the left and right sides of the top surface, respectively, so that they can be folded up and stored in the box-type ironing machine in the stored state, serving as the left and right sides of the box-type ironing machine respectively connected to the top surface. This allows the box-type ironing machine to facilitate ironing operations while having the ironing board 20 built-in, and can also be stored in a folded state as... Figure 1 The folding storage based on the ironing board 20 shown has a box-like storage form, which improves the visual appeal of the box-type iron in the storage state and reduces the space occupied by the box-type iron in the storage state.
[0043] It is worth noting that in the description of this utility model, the statement that "the two wings 202 of the ironing board 20 are pivotally disposed on the left and right sides of the top surface" does not constitute a limitation that the two wings 202 of the ironing board 20 are pivotally disposed on the top surface. For example, the two wings 202 of the ironing board 20 can be pivotally disposed either in the middle section 201 of the ironing board 20 or on the left and right sides of the frame 10. Both arrangements conform to the structural description that "the two wings 202 of the ironing board 20 are pivotally disposed on the left and right sides of the top surface." In other words, in the description that "the two wings 202 of the ironing board 20 are pivotally disposed on the left and right sides of the top surface," "on the left and right sides of the top surface" is merely a description of the orientation and does not limit the installation of the two wings 202 of the ironing board 20 on the top surface.
[0044] It is understandable that the two wings 202 of the ironing board 20, designed with a three-section structure, can correspond to the usage state of the box-type ironing machine. Figure 2 The ironing board 20 is unfolded to ensure its usable area. The two wings 202 of the ironing board 20 have various fixed support structures after being unfolded, and this utility model does not limit them.
[0045] Specifically, in this embodiment of the present invention, the two wings 202 of the ironing board 20 are respectively supported by a support plate, wherein the two wings 202 of the ironing board 20 correspond to Figure 2 In the unfolded state shown, one end of the support plate is pivotally positioned below the ironing board 20, and the other end of the support plate is fixedly positioned to the corresponding wing 202 of the ironing board 20. This securely supports the unfolded wings 202 of the ironing board 20. When the support plate is released from its position on the wings 202 of the ironing board 20, the ironing board 20 can be folded into a folding shape by pivoting the wings 202 and the corresponding support plate in the direction close to the frame 10. Figure 1 The storage structure shown resembles a box.
[0046] Furthermore, in this embodiment of the present invention, the box-type ironing machine further includes a flip-up cabinet protective cover 50 disposed within the frame 10. The flip-up cabinet protective cover 50 is disposed in the form of a cylindrical tube with a side opening. The flip-up cabinet 40 is rotatably disposed within the flip-up cabinet protective cover 50. Corresponding to the stored state of the box-type ironing machine, the cabinet door 402 of the flip-up cabinet 40 covers the side opening of the flip-up cabinet protective cover 50. After the flip-up cabinet 40 is flipped, the cabinet door 402 is hidden within the flip-up cabinet protective cover 50. The opening 4011 of the receiving cavity 401 faces the side opening of the flip-up cabinet protective cover 50. In this way, with the flip-up cabinet 40 disposed in a rotatable state, the ironing head 30 placed in the receiving cavity 401 is prevented from falling into the frame 10 and causing a safety hazard, and the user is prevented from contacting the interior of the frame 10 and causing a safety hazard.
[0047] Furthermore, in this embodiment of the present invention, the box-type iron also includes a drawer-type water tank 60, wherein the side of the flip-up cabinet 40 on the box-type iron is defined as the front of the box-type iron. Corresponding to the storage state of the box-type iron, the cabinet door 402 of the flip-up cabinet 40 blocks the front of the box-type iron. The drawer-type water tank 60 is located below the flip-up cabinet 40 and is installed on the front of the box-type iron in a drawer-type push-fit manner. Thus, when the front of the box-type iron also serves as the standing side for the user to easily remove the ironing head 30, it is convenient for the user to perform a series of ironing-related operations on the front of the box-type iron.
[0048] In particular, in this embodiment of the present invention, the flip cabinet 40 further includes an ironing head storage pit 403 disposed in the receiving cavity 401, wherein the ironing head storage pit 403 has a shape design that matches the ironing surface of the ironing head 30. In this way, when the flip cabinet 40 is flipped, the ironing head 30 stored in the ironing head storage pit 403 is prevented from shaking due to the flipping of the flip cabinet 40, thus helping to ensure the safety of the box-type ironing machine.
[0049] Preferably, in this embodiment of the present invention, at least a portion of the ironing head storage pit 403 is provided with magnetic attraction to further ensure the stability of the ironing head 30 when it is stored in the ironing head storage pit 403, based on the magnetic attraction force on the ironing surface of the ironing head 30 stored in the ironing head storage pit 403.
[0050] Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the ironing head 30 is provided with a magnetic safety valve, wherein the magnetic safety valve is a water valve or electric valve that can switch states under the action of magnetic attraction. In the state where the ironing head 30 is stored in the ironing head storage pit 403, the state switching of the magnetic safety valve is realized based on the magnetic attraction force of the ironing head storage pit 403 on the ironing head 30, thereby avoiding safety hazards caused by failure to cut off water or power in time.
[0051] Furthermore, in this embodiment of the present invention, the ironing head 30 is configured to supply water and electricity via a water and electricity wiring system integrating water supply and power supply lines. The box-type iron also includes a water and electricity wiring storage tray 70 installed on the frame 10. The water and electricity wiring storage tray 70 is used for the automatic coiling and storage of the water and electricity wiring system of the ironing head 30, thereby simplifying the storage operation of the water and electricity wiring system of the ironing head 30 and improving the convenience of the box-type iron. At the same time, the automatic coiling and storage of the water and electricity wiring system simplifies and improves the visual appearance of the box-type iron in the stored state, optimizes the dustproof effect of the box-type iron in the stored state, and reduces the space occupied by the box-type iron in the stored state.
[0052] It is understandable that the water and electricity wiring storage tray 70 can automatically rotate to store the water and electricity wiring of the ironing head 30. The structural design of the water and electricity wiring storage tray 70 needs to simultaneously address the technical challenges of maintaining the connectivity of the water supply line and the power supply line in the rotatable state, and ensuring the insulation of the power supply line relative to the water supply line in the rotatable state. Therefore, it has important technical significance and commercial value for ensuring the safety of the box-type ironing machine and realizing the commercial application of the water and electricity wiring storage tray 70 in the box-type ironing machine.
[0053] Specifically, in this embodiment of the present invention, the water and electricity cable storage tray 70 includes a base 71, a cable take-up turntable 72, a traction and reset device 73, a first water supply shaft pipe 711 fixed to the base 71, a second water supply shaft pipe 721 fixed to the cable take-up turntable 72, and a plurality of conductive electrodes 712 and 722 respectively disposed on the base 71 and the cable take-up turntable 72. The first water supply shaft pipe 711 and the second water supply shaft pipe 721 are rotatably connected by an insertion method, such that the cable take-up turntable 72 is rotatable relative to the base 71 about the first water supply shaft pipe 711 as a pivot axis. The device is dynamically configured to form a water supply channel passing through the chassis 71 and the take-up turntable 72, and to define a rotational conduction space 700 between the chassis 71 and the take-up turntable 72. The traction reset device 73 is disposed on the chassis 71 and has a traction end 731 connected to the take-up turntable 72. Based on the rotation of the take-up turntable 72, the traction reset device 73 pulls the traction end 731. The traction reset device 73 is configured to generate elastic potential energy based on the stretching of the traction end 731. Thus, when the take-up turntable 72 is coiled to house the water and electricity wiring of the ironing head 30, the traction reset device 73 can stretch the traction end 731. The water and electricity wiring of the ironing head 30 is pulled by rotating the take-up turntable 72, which pulls the traction end 731 from the traction reset device 73. When it is necessary to store the water and electricity wiring of the ironing head 30, the self-reset of the traction end 731 drives the take-up turntable 72 to reset and rotate, thus storing the water and electricity wiring of the ironing head 30. The first water supply shaft pipe 711 and the second water supply shaft pipe 721, which are interlocked, are defined as the shaft pipe with the relatively larger outer diameter as the mother shaft pipe. The first water supply shaft pipe 711 and the second water supply shaft pipe 721 are designed based on their respective pipe diameters and lengths to ensure that the interlocking end of the mother shaft pipe is located on the rotating... Outside the conduction space 700, when the corresponding conductive electrodes 712 and 722, respectively arranged on the chassis 71 and the take-up turntable 72, maintain electrical conductivity based on the sliding conductive connection structure set within the rotational conduction space 700, the insulation of the sliding conductive connection structure relative to the water supply channel passing through the chassis 71 and the take-up turntable 72 is ensured. Thus, in the rotatable state of the take-up turntable 72, the water supply pipe and power supply line of the water and electricity cable storage tray 70 are maintained respectively, while taking into account the insulation of the power supply line relative to the water supply pipe, so as to realize the automatic spiral storage function while also ensuring the safety of the box-type ironing machine.
[0054] Specifically, in this embodiment of the present invention, the female shaft tube is the second water supply shaft tube 721, corresponding to the state in which the first water supply shaft tube 711 and the second water supply shaft tube 721 are inserted into each other. The first water supply shaft tube 711 is inserted into the second water supply shaft tube 721, which has a relatively large outer diameter, and the insertion end of the second water supply shaft tube 721 is located outside the rotational conduction space 700.
[0055] It is understood that, in the rotatable state of the take-up turntable 72, the corresponding conductive electrodes 712 and 722 respectively arranged on the chassis 71 and the take-up turntable 72 maintain electrical conductivity based on a sliding conductive connection structure disposed within the rotational conduction space 700. For example, when one of the conductive electrodes 722 arranged on the take-up turntable 72 passes through the take-up turntable 72 and is connected to an annular conductive slide rail arranged on the take-up turntable 72 within the rotational conduction space 700, the conductive electrode 712 arranged on the chassis 71 that needs to maintain electrical conductivity with the conductive electrode 722 can be disposed through the chassis 71 and connected to a brush arranged on the chassis 71 within the rotational conduction space 700 and abutting against the annular conductive slide rail. The specific form of the sliding conductive connection structure disposed within the rotational conduction space 700 is diverse, and this utility model does not limit it.
[0056] Furthermore, it is understood that the traction reset device 73 is configured to generate elastic potential energy based on the stretching of the traction end 731. The specific form of the traction reset device 73 that can generate elastic potential energy based on the stretching of the traction end 731 is diverse. For example, a spring may be provided inside the traction reset device 73. The traction end 731 may be one end of a steel strip that constitutes the spring, or it may be one end of a line that is wound around the shaft of the spring and can pull the shaft of the spring to rotate. The specific structural form of the traction reset device 73 does not constitute a limitation of this utility model.
[0057] Furthermore, in this embodiment of the present invention, the number of conductive electrodes 722 arranged on the take-up turntable 72 is at least three, so as to achieve power supply based on at least two conductive electrodes 722 while achieving grounding and / or signal transmission functions based on at least one conductive electrode 722, including but not limited to the function of transmitting temperature sensing signals and temperature control signals.
[0058] Specifically, in this embodiment of the present invention, the number of conductive electrodes 722 arranged on the take-up turntable 72 is four, of which three conductive electrodes 722 pass through the take-up turntable 72 and are connected to the annular conductive slide rail arranged on the take-up turntable 72 within the rotational conduction space 700, and the other conductive electrode 722 passes through the take-up turntable 72 and is connected to the brush arranged on the take-up turntable 72 within the rotational conduction space 700. Correspondingly, the number of conductive electrodes 712 arranged on the chassis 71 is also four, of which three conductive electrodes 712 pass through the chassis 71 and are connected to the brush arranged on the chassis 71 within the rotational conduction space 700 and abut against the aforementioned annular conductive slide rail on the take-up turntable 72, and the other conductive electrode 712 passes through the chassis 71 and is connected to the annular conductive slide rail arranged on the chassis 71 within the rotational conduction space 700.
[0059] Furthermore, in this embodiment of the present invention, the take-up turntable 72 has an isolation layer 723 extending around the second water supply shaft pipe 721 on the side facing away from the chassis 71. Corresponding to the state where the water and electricity cable storage tray 70 is installed on the frame 10, the water and electricity cable storage tray 70, with the isolation layer 723 as the bottom, together with the take-up turntable 72 and the corresponding housing of the frame 10 covering the take-up turntable 72, forms a take-up groove suitable for coiling and storing the water and electricity cable pipes of the ironing machine. Based on the setting of the isolation layer 723, the conductive electrode 722 set on the take-up turntable 72 can be isolated from the user, thereby ensuring the safety of the box-type ironing machine.
[0060] Specifically, in this embodiment of the present invention, the take-up turntable 72 further has a guide layer 724 extending around the second water supply shaft pipe 721 within the isolation layer 723 on the side facing away from the chassis 71. A cable routing groove is formed between the guide layer 724 and the isolation layer 723, suitable for fixing a section of the water and electricity cable routing pipe near the end of the ironing head 30. In this way, with the take-up turntable 72 in a rotatable state, the stability of the water supply connection and power supply connection between the water and electricity cable routing pipe and the second water supply shaft pipe 721 and the conductive electrode 722 on the take-up turntable 72 is ensured by fixing the section of the water and electricity cable routing pipe housed in the water and electricity cable routing tray 70 in the cable routing groove, thereby ensuring the reliability and service life of the ironing machine.
[0061] Preferably, in this embodiment of the present invention, the water supply connection port 7211 of the water supply pipe in the water and electricity wiring pipe of the ironing head 30 on the second water supply shaft pipe 721 is arranged in the lateral extension of the second water supply shaft pipe 721. This helps to reduce the thickness of the water and electricity wiring storage tray 70, and at the same time helps to ensure the stability and smoothness of the water supply connection between the water and electricity wiring pipe stored in the water and electricity wiring storage tray 70 and the second water supply shaft pipe 721 on the winding turntable 72, thereby ensuring the reliability of the box-type ironing machine.
[0062] Furthermore, in this embodiment of the present invention, the take-up turntable 72 also has a protective ring 725 extending around the second water supply shaft pipe 721 toward the chassis 71, so as to ensure the waterproof and dustproof performance of the rotation conduction space 700 relative to the outside world based on the setting of the protective ring 725, and correspondingly improve the insulation performance of the rotation conduction space 700 relative to the outside world to ensure the safety of the box-type ironing machine.
[0063] Preferably, the end of the protective ring 725 connected to the take-up turntable 72 has a smaller outer diameter than the end closer to the chassis 71. This ensures that water droplets accidentally flowing to the outer edge of the protective ring 725 do not pass through the rotating conduction space 700 under their own gravity, thus improving the waterproof performance of the rotating conduction space 700 relative to the outside world based on the setting of the protective ring 725.
[0064] To fully disclose the present invention, in this embodiment of the present invention, the water pump 80 of the box-type ironing machine is further illustrated in the installation, wherein the water outlet end of the water pump 80 is connected to the first water supply shaft pipe 711 on the side of the chassis 71 facing away from the take-up turntable 72, and the water inlet end of the water pump 80 is connected to the drawer-type water tank 60 when the drawer-type water tank 60 is installed.
