[0002] With social development and the continuous improvement of people's living standards, garment steamers have become an indispensable item in every household. Compared with traditional flat irons, garment steamers are quick, convenient, time-saving, labor-saving, and do not damage clothes. Garment steamers work by continuously contacting clothes and fabrics with hot steam generated inside, softening the fibers. With technological advancements, modern garment steamers are dual-purpose, offering both hanging and flat ironing functions. This requires the garment steamer's stand to have an ironing board, and the ironing board must have supporting components.

[0003] Patent application CN201710904946.4 discloses a foldable bracket for a garment steamer, comprising a support rod with a double-rod structure, the support rod including an upper support section and a lower support section rotatably connected to each other; a hanging bracket hinged to the support rod, the hanging bracket having an anti-slip fork at its upper end and a retractable aluminum rod at its lower end; and an ironing board detachably mounted on the upper support section of the support rod. The foldable bracket used in this application allows the hanging bracket to support the ironing board during the ironing process, eliminating the need for a separate support mechanism for the ironing board. This simplifies the structure, and after use, the bracket can be folded away, saving space and solving the technical problem of existing garment steamer brackets having complex structures and occupying large amounts of space.

[0004] Existing technologies, through the use of structures such as ironing boards, can provide stable support for clothing, but there are still shortcomings: First, existing garment steamer stands lack a breathable structure on the ironing board when providing auxiliary support for ironing clothes. As a result, the steam generated by the garment steamer cannot effectively penetrate the clothes during ironing, which means that the clothes need to be ironed on both sides, resulting in low ironing efficiency and quality. Secondly, existing garment steamer stands lack a structure to stretch and flatten clothes when providing auxiliary support for ironing. This means that when ironing elastic clothes, it is necessary to repeatedly flatten the clothes, resulting in low ironing efficiency and poor ironing effect. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a foldable support for garment steamers. Through the inclusion of an ironing board, this invention allows steam generated by the garment steamer to penetrate the garment and enter the cavity when clothes are placed on the ironing board for horizontal ironing, and then exit through multiple exhaust holes, effectively improving the ironing effect and efficiency.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a foldable bracket for a garment steamer, comprising an ironing board, a placement rack on the end face of the ironing board, multiple fixed long plates on one side of the ironing board, all of which are rotatably connected to the ironing board, multiple sliding plates slidably disposed on both sides of the ironing board, multiple elastic clamps on the upper end face of each sliding plate, a cavity inside the fixed long plate, multiple ventilation holes communicating with the cavity on the upper end face of the fixed long plate, and multiple exhaust holes on the inner side wall of the cavity near the fixed long plate.

[0007] Optionally, each of the fixed long plates has a snap-fit ​​groove on one side wall, and each snap-fit ​​groove has a snap-fit ​​slider on one side of the fixed long plate. One end of each snap-fit ​​slider is slidably connected to its adjacent snap-fit ​​groove.

[0008] Optionally, each of the fixed long plates is fixedly provided with a reinforcing block on both sides of the ironing plate sidewall, and a second snap-fit ​​hole is fixedly provided on the sidewall of each reinforcing block and snap-fit ​​groove, and a first snap-fit ​​hole is provided on the inner sidewall of each snap-fit ​​groove, and a pin is slidably provided inside a plurality of adjacent second snap-fit ​​holes.

[0009] Optionally, a sliding frame is provided on one side of each sliding plate inside the cavity, and a sliding rod is slidably provided inside each sliding frame. One end of each sliding rod is fixedly connected to its adjacent sliding plate, and a damping block is detachably provided at the other end of each sliding rod. Each damping block is slidably connected to its adjacent sliding frame.

[0010] Optionally, multiple first support slide rods are rotatably arranged on the side wall of the ironing board between the multiple fixed long plates. A second support slide rod is elastically slidably arranged inside each of the first support slide rods. A support block is rotatably arranged at one end of each of the second support slide rods. A limiting groove plate is fixedly arranged on one side of each support block on the side wall of the ironing board. Each limiting groove plate slides against its adjacent support block.

[0011] Optionally, each of the support blocks has multiple anti-slip protrusions on its end face.

Detailed Implementation

[0017] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Example 1:

[0018] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a foldable bracket for a garment steamer includes an ironing board 11. A placement rack 31 is provided on the end face of the ironing board 11. When not ironing, the garment steamer can be clipped into the placement rack 31. Multiple fixed long plates 10 are provided on one side of the ironing board 11, and these plates are rotatably connected to the ironing board 11. During installation and use, the multiple fixed long plates 10 can be fixed to the wall with screws. When not in use, the ironing board 11 can be rotated to abut against one side of the multiple fixed long plates 10, forming a folded state, which reduces the space occupied by the bracket. Multiple sliding plates 21 are slidably provided on both sides of the ironing board 11. Multiple elastic clamps 22 are provided on the upper end face of each sliding plate 21. The elastic clamps 22 are as follows... Figure 8 As shown, the overall shape is S-shaped and made of elastic metal material. One end of the ironing plate 11 is elastically compressed with the end face of the sliding plate 21. When ironing elastic clothes horizontally, the ironing plate 11 is first rotated and fixed to keep the end face of the ironing plate 11 horizontal. Then, the clothes are laid flat and stretched on the end face of the ironing plate 11. The outer area of ​​the clothes is elastically clamped and fixed by multiple elastic clamps 22 on multiple sliding plates 21, which effectively prevents the elastic clothes from shrinking and deforming during subsequent ironing. Then, multiple sliding plates 21 are pulled so that multiple sliding plates 21 can be horizontally stretched according to the outer contour of the clothes, thereby keeping the clothes horizontally stretched and flat, improving the subsequent ironing effect. The fixed long plate 10 has a cavity 18 inside for fixing. The upper surface of the long plate 10 is provided with multiple ventilation holes 19 that communicate with the cavity 18. The inner wall of the cavity 18 near the fixed long plate 10 is provided with multiple exhaust holes 20. After the clothes are placed on the upper surface of the ironing board 11 and clamped and fixed, the user can hold the output end of the garment steamer to iron the upper surface of the clothes horizontally. The hot steam generated by the ironing end of the garment steamer can pass through the clothes and enter the interior of the cavity 18 through the multiple ventilation holes 19. When the cavity 18 is filled with steam, after the steam sprayed by the garment steamer continues to pass through the clothes and ventilation holes 19 into the interior of the cavity 18, the steam inside the cavity 18 can be discharged through the multiple exhaust holes 20, or through the multiple ventilation holes 19 that are not covered by the clothes, thereby forming penetrating ironing of the clothes and effectively improving the ironing effect.

[0019] Furthermore, such as Figure 5As shown, each fixed long plate 10 has a snap-fit ​​groove 13 on one side wall, and each snap-fit ​​groove 13 has a snap-fit ​​slider 12 on one side of the fixed long plate 10. One end of each snap-fit ​​slider 12 is slidably connected to its adjacent snap-fit ​​groove 13. It should be noted that the rotational connection between the snap-fit ​​slider 12 and the snap-fit ​​groove 13 is cylindrical, which ensures both the sliding connection between the snap-fit ​​slider 12 and the snap-fit ​​groove 13 and the rotational snap-fit ​​between the snap-fit ​​slider 12 and the snap-fit ​​groove 13. Each fixed long plate 10 has a reinforcing block 14 fixedly installed on both sides of the ironing plate 11 side wall. Each reinforcing block 14 and the side wall of the snap-fit ​​groove 13 have... The bracket is fixedly provided with a second snap-fit ​​hole 16. The arrangement of multiple reinforcing blocks 14 can reinforce the rotating connection between the fixed long plate 10 and the ironing board 11. Each snap-fit ​​groove 13 has a first snap-fit ​​hole 15 on its inner side wall. Multiple adjacent second snap-fit ​​holes 16 are slidably provided with pins 17. When using the bracket for ironing, the height of the ironing board 11 can be adjusted through the sliding connection between the ironing board 11 and the fixed long plate 10. Then, the ironing board 11 can be rotated to keep it horizontal. Finally, the pins 17 pass through the corresponding first snap-fit ​​holes 15 and second snap-fit ​​holes 16 to snap-fit ​​and fix the fixed long plate 10 and the ironing board 11.

[0020] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, each sliding plate 21 has a sliding frame 23 inside the cavity 18 on one side. A sliding rod 24 is slidably mounted inside each sliding frame 23. One end of each sliding rod 24 is fixedly connected to its adjacent sliding plate 21. The sliding connection between the sliding frame 23 and the sliding rod 24 forms a horizontal sliding guide for the sliding plate 21. A damping block 25 is detachably mounted on the other end of each sliding rod 24. Each damping block 25 is slidably connected to its adjacent sliding frame 23. After the edge of the garment is clamped and fixed to the end face of the sliding plate 21 by the elastic clamp 22, the garment is stretched and fixed by pulling each sliding plate 21. Multiple sliding plates 21 and other components respectively support the garment... The bracket is clamped and fixed at different external positions, so that it can be stretched to fit the outer contour of the garment, improving the overall adaptability of the bracket. After the sliding plate 21 is pulled to stretch and support the garment, the sliding plate 21 drives the sliding rod 24 and, through the damping force between the damping block 25 and the sliding frame 23, the sliding plate 21, together with the elastic clamp 22, can maintain the clamping and stretching of the garment. When not in use, the sliding plate 21 can be horizontally squeezed and stored by external force to reduce the space occupied by the bracket. Moreover, the damping block 25 and the sliding rod 24 are detachably connected by bolts. When the damping block 25 wears out after long-term use, the damping block 25 can be replaced in time.

[0021] It should be noted that when ironing elastic fabric, only slight stretching and flattening of the garment is required. Therefore, the damping force between the damping block 25 and the sliding frame 23 is greater than 10 Newtons, so the sliding frame 23 can maintain stable stretching and flattening of the garment during the ironing process. Example 2:

[0022] Based on Example 1, further examples are made, such as... Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, multiple first support slide rods 26 are rotatably arranged on the side wall of the ironing board 11 between multiple fixed long plates 10. A second support slide rod 27 is elastically slidably arranged inside each first support slide rod 26. A spring is arranged between the first support slide rod 26 and the second support slide rod 27. Through the elastic tension of the spring, elastic support can be formed between the first support slide rod 26 and the second support slide rod 27. A support block 28 is rotatably arranged at one end of each second support slide rod 27. The arrangement of the support block 28 can increase the contact area between one end of the second support slide rod 27 and the wall. A limit groove plate 30 is fixedly arranged on one side of each support block 28 on the side wall of the ironing board 11.

[0023] The setting of the limiting groove plate 30 allows the first support slide 26 and the second support slide 27 to be folded and stored. The limiting groove plate 30 can be used to lock and limit the adjacent support block 28, thereby forming a compression limit on the components such as the first support slide 26 and the second support slide 27. Each limiting groove plate 30 slides and abuts against its adjacent support block 28.

[0024] When using the bracket, the first support slide 26 and the second support slide 27 can be rotated to allow the spring between the first support slide 26 and the second support slide 27 to provide sliding support between them. This causes the support block 28 at one end of the second support slide 27 to abut against the wall, thereby forming a diagonal brace between the ironing board 11 and the wall, improving the stability of the bracket. Each first support slide 26 is provided with a limiting diagonal block 32 at the rotational connection point with the ironing board 11. Each limiting diagonal block 32 abuts against the side wall of the ironing board 11. The limiting diagonal block 32 can limit the rotation angle of the first support slide 26, thereby allowing the first support slide 26 and the second support slide 27 to form the optimal angle of diagonal brace between the ironing board 11 and the wall.

[0025] Furthermore, such as Figure 7 As shown, each support block 28 has multiple anti-slip protrusions 29 on its end face. The multiple anti-slip protrusions 29 can increase the friction between the support block 28 and the wall, and at the same time prevent the support block 28 from bumping into the wall.

[0026] Finally, it should be noted that the damping blocks and other components in the foldable bracket for garment steamers in this utility model are all purchased from the market. Technical personnel in this industry only need to install and operate it according to the accompanying instruction manual, without requiring any creative work from those skilled in the art.
