Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of household appliance technology, and more particularly to a steam boiler and an ironing machine. Background Technology

[0002] A steam iron is a device that uses high-temperature steam to iron clothes. Its core function is to heat water in a boiler to generate steam, which is then sprayed out through nozzles on the ironing panel to iron clothes.

[0003] In related technologies, the boiler has an internal flow channel that can be heated by a heating element (such as a heating wire). When water flows through this channel, it is heated and vaporized into steam, which is then ejected through the steam outlet of the channel. The boiler has a single-channel structure; by extending the length of the flow channel, the contact time between the water and the heating element is increased, ensuring complete vaporization.

[0004] However, as the flow channel length increases, the amount of water in the channel also increases accordingly, resulting in low steam generation efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] This application provides a steam boiler and an ironing machine to solve the problems of high energy consumption of heating elements and large boiler size caused by the single-channel structure of the boiler.

[0006] Firstly, the steam boiler provided in this application includes:

[0007] The boiler body has at least two vaporization channels, at least two steam outlets and at least two water inlets, and the steam outlets and water inlets are respectively connected to the two ends of the vaporization channels.

[0008] At least one heating element is provided, with a corresponding heating element between two adjacent vaporization channels, and the heating element is configured to heat the vaporization channels.

[0009] In this way, after the water enters the boiler body, it is divided into at least two branches, each entering a corresponding vaporization channel. This results in less water flowing into each vaporization channel, allowing for more efficient vaporization using lower-power heating elements, thus saving energy. Furthermore, the boiler body employs a multi-channel design, which significantly reduces the length of each vaporization channel compared to a single-channel design, thereby reducing the overall size of the steam boiler.

[0010] In one possible implementation, the steam boiler provided in this application further includes a water distribution component, which is disposed on the boiler body. The water distribution component is provided with an inlet channel and at least two outlet channels, and the at least two outlet channels are connected to the inlet channel and are correspondingly connected to the inlet.

[0011] In this way, after the water enters the water distribution component through the water inlet channel, it is divided into multiple branches inside the water distribution component, so that each branch flows through the water outlet channel and the water inlet of the boiler body to each vaporization channel.

[0012] In one possible implementation, the steam boiler provided in this application further includes a first heat insulation component, which is disposed between the boiler body and the water distribution component.

[0013] Thus, by installing a first heat insulation component between the boiler body and the water distribution component, the first heat insulation component is used to insulate against heat and prevent the water distribution component from being damaged by heat.

[0014] In one possible implementation, the steam boiler provided in this application has at least two through holes on the first heat insulation component, with the through holes corresponding to the water inlet and the water outlet channel correspondingly inserted into the through holes.

[0015] In this way, the through holes on the first insulation component can act as guides to align the water outlet channel of the water distribution component with and insert it into the water inlet of the boiler body.

[0016] In one possible implementation, the steam boiler provided in this application further includes a second heat insulation element, which is sleeved on the outside of the boiler body.

[0017] Thus, the second insulation component is fitted onto the outside of the boiler body, which can play a role in heat preservation and insulation, thereby effectively blocking the transfer of heat to the surrounding environment, reducing unnecessary heat loss, allowing more heat to be used for water heating, and reducing energy consumption.

[0018] In one possible implementation, the steam boiler provided in this application has at least one mounting groove on the outer side of the boiler body, and the mounting groove is provided between two adjacent vaporization channels, with the heating element correspondingly installed in the mounting groove.

[0019] In this way, the heating element can be installed between two adjacent vaporization channels of the boiler body through the mounting slot, so that the heating element can heat the two adjacent vaporization channels.

[0020] In one possible implementation, the steam boiler provided in this application includes a main body and a cover body, with both the steam outlet and the water inlet located on the main body.

[0021] The main body is connected to the cover body to form a vaporization chamber; a portion of the main body protrudes from the outside of the vaporization chamber toward the cover body to form at least one mounting groove; the bottom of the mounting groove abuts against the cover body to divide the vaporization chamber into at least two vaporization channels.

[0022] In this way, by protruding part of the main body towards the cover body, the vaporization chamber can be divided into two vaporization channels while forming the installation groove. This eliminates the need for additional baffles in the vaporization chamber, resulting in a simple overall structure and lighter weight for the boiler body.

[0023] In one possible implementation, the steam boiler provided in this application has a first notch at one end of the extending direction of the mounting groove, through which the wires of the heating element extend out of the mounting groove.

[0024] Thus, by setting a first notch in the extension direction of the mounting groove, the heating element’s wire extends naturally along the extension direction of the mounting groove, avoiding mechanical damage caused by excessive bending or forced bending at an unreasonable angle when the heating wire extends out of the mounting groove.

[0025] In one possible implementation, the steam boiler provided in this application has a long strip-shaped vaporization channel that extends along a first direction;

[0026] At least two vaporization channels are arranged alternately along a second direction that intersects the first direction.

[0027] This allows for full utilization of the installation space on the boiler body, resulting in a more compact overall structure.

[0028] Secondly, the ironing machine provided in this application includes an ironing machine body and a steam boiler, as described above, installed on the ironing machine body.

[0029] In addition to the technical problems solved by the embodiments of this application, the technical features constituting the technical solutions, and the beneficial effects brought about by the technical features of these technical solutions as described above, other technical problems that this application can solve, other technical features included in the technical solutions, and the beneficial effects brought about by these technical features will be further explained in detail in the specific embodiments.

[0043] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the drawings, the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar components or components having the same or similar functions throughout. The described embodiments are some, but not all, embodiments of this application. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this application, and should not be construed as limiting this application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application. The embodiments of this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0044] In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "linking" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or the internal communication between two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application according to the specific circumstances.

[0045] In the description of this application, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "back", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this application 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 application.

[0046] The terms "first," "second," and "third" (if any) in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this application are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a particular order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments of this application described herein can be implemented, for example, in orders other than those illustrated or described herein.

[0047] Furthermore, the terms “comprising” and “having”, and any variations thereof, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, system, product, or display that includes a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units that are explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not explicitly listed or that are inherent to such process, method, product, or display.

[0048] In related technologies, the boiler of an ironing machine has an internal flow channel that can be heated by a heating element (such as a heating wire). When water flows through this flow channel, it is heated and vaporized into steam, which is then ejected through the steam outlet of the flow channel. The boiler has a single-flow channel structure; by extending the length of the flow channel, the contact time between the water and the heating element is increased, ensuring complete vaporization.

[0049] However, with the increased length of the flow channel, the amount of water within it also increases, requiring a higher power output from the heating elements to generate a larger volume of steam, resulting in higher energy consumption. Furthermore, the increased length of the flow channel also increases the size of the boiler.

[0050] In view of the above problems, this application provides a steam boiler and an ironing machine. The steam boiler includes a boiler body and at least one heating element. The boiler body has at least two vaporization channels, at least two steam outlets, and at least two water inlets, which are respectively connected to the two ends of the vaporization channels. A heating element is disposed between adjacent vaporization channels, and the heating element is configured to heat the vaporization channels. After water enters the boiler body, it is split into at least two branches, which enter their respective vaporization channels. In this way, less water flows into each vaporization channel, and a low-power heating element can be used to fully vaporize the water in the vaporization channels, thereby saving energy. Furthermore, the boiler body adopts a multi-channel design. Compared with a single-channel design, the length of each vaporization channel in the multi-channel design is significantly reduced, which can correspondingly reduce the volume of the steam boiler.

[0051] To facilitate understanding, the application scenarios of the embodiments of this application will be described first.

[0052] The ironing machine provided in this application embodiment can be applied to clothing manufacturing, storage, sales, or laundry shops. The clothing to be ironed by the ironing machine should be interpreted broadly, including but not limited to clothes, trousers, and other items for wearing, as well as fabrics such as curtains, sheets, and duvet covers. This application embodiment does not specifically limit this, and will be collectively referred to as "clothing" below, without further specific examples.

[0053] The specific implementation methods of the steam boiler and ironing machine provided in this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0054] Reference Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the steam boiler provided in this application embodiment includes a boiler body 100 and at least one heating element 200.

[0055] The boiler body 100 has at least two vaporization channels 101, and at least two steam outlets 102 and at least two water inlets 103. The steam outlets 102 and water inlets 103 are respectively connected to the two ends of the vaporization channels 101. A heating element 200 is provided between two adjacent vaporization channels 101, and the heating element 200 is configured to heat the vaporization channels 101.

[0056] It is understood that the steam boiler provided in this application embodiment is applicable to an ironing machine. The ironing machine includes a housing and an ironing panel. The ironing panel is connected to the housing to form a receiving cavity, and the steam boiler is disposed within the receiving cavity and connected to the ironing panel. The ironing machine also includes a water tank and a water pump. The water tank is connected to the housing, and the water pump is disposed within the receiving cavity. The water pump connects the water tank and the steam boiler to pump water from the water tank into the steam boiler.

[0057] When ironing clothes, the user can hold the casing and press the ironing panel against the clothes. The water pump delivers water from the water tank to the vaporization channel 101 inside the boiler body 100 of the steam boiler. The heating element 200 raises the temperature of the boiler body 100. The water in the vaporization channel 101 vaporizes under the high temperature to form steam. The steam is then sprayed onto the clothes through the steam outlet 102 on the boiler body 100 and the steam holes on the ironing panel, thus steam ironing the clothes.

[0058] Reference Figure 3 As shown, both water inlets 103 on the boiler body 100 can be connected to a water pump. Water enters the boiler body 100 under the action of the pump and is then divided into at least two branches, each entering a corresponding vaporization channel 101. In this way, less water flows into each vaporization channel 101, allowing for sufficient vaporization of the water in the vaporization channel 101 using a low-power heating element 200, thus saving energy.

[0059] Furthermore, the boiler body 100 adopts a multi-channel flow channel design. Compared with a single-channel design, the length of each vaporization channel 101 in the multi-channel flow channel is significantly reduced, which can correspondingly reduce the volume of the steam boiler.

[0060] It is understood that there are at least two vaporization channels 101. The number of vaporization channels 101 can be two or more, such as three, four, five, six, seven, eight, etc. The number of steam outlets 102 and water inlets 103 should correspond one-to-one with the number of vaporization channels 101. This application embodiment does not impose specific limitations on this.

[0061] At least one heating element 200 is provided. The number of heating elements 200 can be one, two or more, as long as there is a heating element 200 between two adjacent vaporization channels 101. This application embodiment does not impose specific restrictions on this.

[0062] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in a specific embodiment, the boiler body 100 is provided with 8 vaporization channels 101 and 7 heating elements 200. One heating element 200 is provided between every two adjacent vaporization channels 101 to ensure sufficient steam volume, thereby improving the ironing effect on clothes.

[0063] For example, the heating element 200 can be an electric heating wire in conventional technology, which includes a heating coil and a wire 210. The boiler body 100 can be made of a heat-conducting material, such as metal, so that the temperature of the boiler body 100 can rise under the heating action of the heating element 200.

[0064] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the steam boiler provided in this application also includes a water distribution component 300. The water distribution component 300 is disposed on the boiler body 100. The water distribution component 300 is provided with a water inlet channel 301 and at least two water outlet channels 302. The at least two water outlet channels 302 are all connected to the water inlet channel 301, and the water outlet channels 302 are correspondingly connected to the water inlet 103.

[0065] The water inlet channel 301 of the water distribution component 300 is used to connect to the outlet end of the water pump.

[0066] In the above embodiment, after water enters the water distribution component 300 through the water inlet channel 301, it is divided into multiple branches inside the water distribution component 300, so that each branch flows into each vaporization channel 101 through the water outlet channel 302 and the water inlet 103 of the boiler body 100 respectively.

[0067] Specifically, refer to Figure 5 As shown, there can be 8 outlet channels 302, which correspond one-to-one with the 8 vaporization channels 101 on the boiler body 100.

[0068] Reference Figure 5 As shown, in one embodiment, the water distribution component 300 is provided with a main water inlet channel 303 and at least two branch water outlet channels 304. The at least two branch water outlet channels 304 are respectively connected to the main water inlet channel 303. The water inlet channel 301 is connected to the main water inlet channel 303, and the water outlet channel 302 is correspondingly connected to the branch water outlet channels 304.

[0069] In this way, after the water enters the water distribution component 300 through the water inlet channel 301, it first flows to the main water inlet channel 303, and then splits into multiple branches. Each branch flows from the water outlet branch channel 304 to each water outlet channel 302.

[0070] Specifically, refer to Figure 5 As shown, there are 8 outlet tributary channels 304.

[0071] Reference Figure 5 As shown, in a specific embodiment, the water distribution component 300 includes a first housing portion 310 and a second housing portion 320. The water inlet channel 301 is disposed on the first housing portion 310, and the water outlet channel 302 is disposed on the second housing portion 320. The second housing portion 320 is disposed on the boiler body 100.

[0072] The second housing part 320 is provided with a plurality of baffles 321 on the side facing the first housing part 310. The first housing part 310 and the second housing part 320 are detachably connected. The baffles 321 abut against the first housing part 310, thus forming a main water inlet channel 303 and a plurality of water outlet tributary channels 304.

[0073] For example, the first housing part 310 and the second housing part 320 can be detachably connected by a structure such as a snap fastener or bolt.

[0074] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the steam boiler provided in this application also includes a first heat insulation component 400, which is disposed between the boiler body 100 and the water distribution component 300.

[0075] In the above embodiment, a first heat insulation component 400 is provided between the boiler body 100 and the water distribution component 300. The first heat insulation component 400 is used to provide heat insulation so as to prevent the water distribution component 300 from being damaged by heat.

[0076] Furthermore, when the heating element 200 heats the boiler body 100, it releases a large amount of heat. The first heat insulation element 400 can effectively block the heat from being transferred to the water distribution element 300 and the surrounding environment, reducing unnecessary heat loss and allowing more heat to be used for water heating, thus reducing energy consumption.

[0077] For example, the first heat insulation element 400 can be made of a material with low thermal conductivity, including but not limited to heat insulation silicone, ceramic fiber, aerogel felt, etc., and the embodiments of this application do not impose too many restrictions on this.

[0078] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the first heat insulation member 400 is provided with at least two through holes 410, the through holes 410 are correspondingly provided with the water inlet 103, and the water outlet channel 302 is correspondingly inserted into the through holes 410.

[0079] In the above embodiment, the through hole 410 on the first heat insulation member 400 can serve as a guide to guide the water outlet channel 302 of the water distribution member 300 to align with and be inserted into the water inlet 103 of the boiler body 100.

[0080] In one specific embodiment, the first heat insulation component 400 is heat-insulating silicone. In this way, the first heat insulation component 400 can fill the gap between the water outlet channel 302 and the water inlet 103 through its own deformation, so as to improve air tightness and avoid water leakage.

[0081] Specifically, refer to Figure 4 As shown, there are 8 through holes 410, corresponding to 8 water outlet channels 302.

[0082] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the steam boiler provided in this application also includes a second heat insulation member 500, which is sleeved on the outside of the boiler body 100.

[0083] In the above embodiment, the second heat insulation component 500 is sleeved on the outside of the boiler body 100, which can play a role in heat preservation and insulation, thereby effectively blocking the transfer of heat to the surrounding environment, reducing unnecessary heat loss, allowing more heat to be used for water heating, and reducing energy consumption.

[0084] Reference Figure 1 As shown, the second heat insulation component 500 covers the water distribution component 300 to ensure that the water distribution component 300 is securely installed on the boiler body 100. The second heat insulation component 500 is provided with a clearance hole 510 and at least two steam through holes 520. The clearance hole 510 is used to avoid the water inlet channel 301 of the water distribution component 300, and the steam through holes 520 are correspondingly arranged with the steam outlets 102 on the boiler body 100.

[0085] In this way, the high-temperature steam in the vaporization channel 101 can pass through the steam outlet 102 on the boiler body 100 and the steam through hole 520 on the second heat insulation component 500 in sequence, and then be sprayed onto the clothes from the steam hole on the ironing panel.

[0086] Specifically, refer to Figure 1 As shown, there are 8 steam through holes 520.

[0087] For example, the second heat insulation element 500 can be a silicone cover, a rubber cover, etc.

[0088] Reference Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, at least one mounting groove 104 is provided on the outer side of the boiler body 100, and the mounting groove 104 is provided between two adjacent vaporization channels 101, with the heating element 200 correspondingly disposed in the mounting groove 104.

[0089] In the above embodiment, the heating element 200 can be installed between two adjacent vaporization channels 101 of the boiler body 100 through the mounting groove 104, so that the heating element 200 can heat the two adjacent vaporization channels 101.

[0090] It is understood that at least one mounting slot 104 is required. The number of mounting slots 104 can be one, two, or more, as long as the number of mounting slots 104 corresponds one-to-one with the number of heating elements 200. For example, see [reference needed]. Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, there are 7 heating elements 200 and 7 mounting slots 104.

[0091] Reference Figures 2 to 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the boiler body 100 includes a main body 110 and a cover 120, with a steam outlet 102 and a water inlet 103 both located on the main body 110.

[0092] The main body 110 is connected to the cover 120 and forms a vaporization chamber 111; a portion of the main body 110 protrudes from the outside of the vaporization chamber 111 toward the cover 120 to form at least one mounting groove 104; the bottom of the mounting groove 104 abuts against the cover 120 to divide the vaporization chamber 111 into at least two vaporization channels 101.

[0093] In the above embodiment, by protruding a portion of the main body 110 toward the cover 120, the vaporization chamber 111 can be divided into two vaporization channels 101 while forming the mounting groove 104. This eliminates the need for additional partitions in the vaporization chamber 111, resulting in a simple overall structure and lighter weight for the boiler body 100.

[0094] A sealing element is provided between the cover portion 120 and the main body portion 110. The sealing element is used to fill the gap between the cover portion 120 and the main body portion 110 to improve the airtightness between the two and prevent water leakage.

[0095] For example, the seal can be a silicone part, a rubber part, or other sealing material with a certain degree of elasticity, and the embodiments of this application do not specifically limit it.

[0096] Reference Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, a first notch 1041 is provided at one end of the extending direction of the mounting groove 104, and the wire 210 of the heating element 200 extends out of the mounting groove 104 through the first notch 1041.

[0097] The heating element 200 has a wire 210 that can be electrically connected to the control unit on the ironing machine. The control unit is based on a PCB (Printed Circuit Board), which integrates components such as temperature sensors (e.g., NTC thermistors), temperature control chips, and relays.

[0098] In the above embodiment, by providing a first notch 1041 in the extending direction of the mounting groove 104, the wire 210 of the heating element 200 extends naturally along the extending direction of the mounting groove 104, avoiding mechanical damage caused by excessive bending or forced bending at an unreasonable angle when the wire 210 of the heating wire extends out of the mounting groove 104.

[0099] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the second heat insulation component 500 has a second notch 530, which is corresponding to the first notch 1041, so that the wire 210 of the heating component 200 can be electrically connected to the control unit through the first notch 1041 and the second notch 530 in sequence.

[0100] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments, the vaporization channel 101 is an elongated channel extending along a first direction. At least two vaporization channels 101 are sequentially spaced along a second direction intersecting the first direction.

[0101] In the above embodiments, each vaporization channel 101 extends along a first direction to avoid occupying extra space due to arbitrary changes in direction, so as to make the overall structure more compact.

[0102] Furthermore, multiple vaporization channels 101 are arranged sequentially and at intervals along a second direction intersecting the first direction. This allows them to be arranged in an orderly manner on the boiler body 100, avoiding mutual interference and wasted space caused by chaotic directions among the vaporization channels 101. This intersecting arrangement can accommodate more vaporization channels 101 within the same volume, or significantly reduce the overall volume of the boiler body 100 while accommodating the same number of vaporization channels 101, thereby achieving optimized spatial layout and effective volume reduction.

[0103] To facilitate understanding of the directions, an XY plane coordinate system is established in the accompanying drawings of the specification, wherein the direction of the X-axis is the first direction in the embodiments of this application, and the direction of the Y-axis is the second direction in the embodiments of this application.

[0104] Preferably, the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction.

[0105] The ironing machine provided in this application includes an ironing machine body and a steam boiler, as described above, mounted on the ironing machine body.

[0106] Since the ironing machine uses the steam boiler described in the above embodiment, it also has the advantages and benefits brought by the steam boiler, which will not be elaborated further here.

[0107] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this application, and are not intended to limit them. Although this application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application.
