Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of irons, specifically to an iron with a lifting handle. Background Technology

[0002] Existing irons often feature a unibody design or a large, unconcealable handle. Firstly, considering user experience, the handle size needs to be ergonomically designed for comfortable grip. A handle that's too thin is uncomfortable and inconvenient, while one that's too thick is difficult to hold. A comfortable size must be considered, along with sufficient space for the user's hand. Therefore, some iron handle designs require ample clearance for fingers and grip. However, this inevitably results in a larger overall size for the iron, creating a dilemma.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to address the issues of user-friendly and comfortable operation as well as how to miniaturize the iron. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the technical problems and shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides an iron with a lifting handle, which improves the ease of operation for users and has two states to meet users' operational and space-saving needs.

[0005] To achieve the above and other related objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: An iron with a lifting handle includes an iron shell and a handle mounted on the shell. The front, rear, and top edges of the iron shell form recessed grooves. These recessed grooves align with the outer surface of the handle and restrict the handle to move up and down only within the recessed grooves. The handle includes a handle housing, a locking module, a lifting switch, and a spring. Locking modules are mounted at both ends of the handle housing. The lifting switch is mounted on the top of the handle housing and has at least one guide hole. A guide post inserted into the guide hole is located on the top of the handle housing to maintain the lifting switch's up-and-down movement. The lifting switch and the handle housing interact through the spring to keep the lifting switch in a reset state. Locking holes of different heights are provided on the recessed groove. The two ends of the lifting switch act on the locking module, causing the locking module to lock the locking holes.

[0006] Preferably, the handle housing includes a lower housing and an upper housing, the lower housing being U-shaped and having locking modules fixedly assembled inside both ends.

[0007] Preferably, the locking module includes a locking seat, a pin slider, a push rod, and a second spring. The locking seat has a horizontal groove for the pin slider to slide laterally. The groove and the pin slider are engaged by the second spring to keep the pin slider in a reset state. The pin slider has a ramp groove. The push rod is vertically slidably mounted on the locking seat and its lower end is guided by the ramp groove. The side of the locking seat has a stroke groove, and the side of the push rod has a stroke block adapted to the stroke groove.

[0008] Preferably, the travel block has a downwardly inclined surface, and a backrest is provided inside the locking seat. The locking seat is made of plastic, and the backrest abuts against the side of the travel block.

[0009] Preferably, the pin slider is provided with a pin end, and the pin end has a downwardly inclined surface.

[0010] Preferably, the lifting switch has a symmetrical structure, and a spring groove is provided at the center of the lifting switch, with the spring being assembled in the spring groove.

[0011] Preferably, the iron shell is provided with a fragrance chamber, a fragrance inlet, a sealing cap, an atomizer, and a mist outlet. The fragrance inlet is connected to the fragrance chamber and is sealed with a sealing cap. The atomizer is connected to the fragrance chamber to atomize the fragrance liquid and discharge it downwards. The mist outlet is located at the bottom of the iron body to guide the atomized fragrance.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: 1. This utility model features an inner groove and a handle that fit together perfectly, with the handle able to move up and down within the inner groove. During use, the handle can be pulled out to expand hand grip and operating space, while retracting during storage to reduce external space occupation, resulting in a more compact overall size. The handle's raising and lowering is achieved by pressing a raising and lowering switch, conforming to user operating habits and facilitating operation. The raising and lowering switch operates stably, guided by a guide post to prevent jamming or malfunction. The unlocking and locking operations of the handle are highly reliable and durable.

[0013] 2. In this utility model, the locking module converts the driving force of the upper and lower pressures to realize the lateral movement of the pin slider, which can effectively lock and unlock the lock hole of the inner groove, making it easy to operate. During the movement of the pin slider, the sliding groove limit maintains a stable action, and the spring is used for reset.

[0014] 3. The stroke block restricts the movement of the push rod within the stroke groove. At the same time, due to its downward inclined surface, it can move down excessively. Furthermore, since the locking seat is made of plastic, it has good deformation capacity and can recover. This allows the push rod to be lowered by excessive force to avoid breakage, thereby improving its reliability and extending its service life.

[0015] 4. The fragrance is injected through the fragrance inlet and sealed with a sealing cap. The fragrance is then atomized by the atomizer and delivered through the mist outlet to simultaneously iron the clothes and enhance the ironing quality.

[0016] Other additional advantages and benefits of this application will be set forth in part in the description which follows, and in part will be obvious from the description, or may be learned by practice of this application. Attached Figure Description

[0022] Example: This invention discloses an iron with a lifting handle, as shown in the following embodiment. Figure 1 As shown, the iron includes an iron housing 101 and a handle disposed on the housing. The front, rear, and top sides of the iron housing 101 are formed with recessed grooves 102. The recessed grooves 102 and the outer surface of the handle are aligned and restrict the handle to move up and down only on the recessed grooves 102.

[0023] Combined Figure 2 and Figure 3The handle includes a handle housing 210, a locking module 220, a lifting switch 230, and a spring 240. The locking modules 220 are mounted at both ends of the handle housing 210. The lifting switch 230 is mounted on the top of the handle housing 210 and has at least one guide hole 231 (two are provided in this design, symmetrically). A guide post 213, inserted into the guide hole 231, is provided on the top of the handle housing 210 to maintain the vertical movement of the lifting switch 230. The lifting switch 230 and the handle housing 210 interact through the spring 240 to keep the lifting switch 230 in the reset state.

[0024] The recessed groove 102 is provided with lock holes 103 of different heights. This solution provides lock holes 103 of two heights. The two ends of the lifting switch 230 act on the latch module 220 respectively, so that the latch module 220 locks the lock holes 103.

[0025] Based on the above structure, the structural principle of this application is as follows: the inner groove 102 and the handle fit together, and the handle can move up and down on the inner groove 102. Therefore, when in use, the handle is pulled out to expand the hand grip and operating space; when stored, the handle retracts to reduce external space occupation, resulting in a more compact overall size. The lifting and lowering operation of the handle is achieved by pressing the lifting switch 230, which conforms to the user's operating habits and is easy to control. The lifting switch 230 has stable pressing movement and is guided by the guide post 213, making it less prone to jamming or malfunction. The unlocking and locking operations of the handle lifting and lowering are very reliable and durable.

[0026] To ensure a secure handle assembly, the locking modules 220 require symmetrical and multiple locking positions. Furthermore, for ease of assembly, the handle housing 210 includes a lower housing 211 and an upper housing 212. The lower housing 211 is U-shaped, with the locking modules 220 fixedly mounted inside both ends. This ensures that the handle has sufficient clearance during raising and lowering.

[0027] Combination Figure 3 and Figure 4 The locking module 220 includes a locking seat 221, a pin slider 222, a push rod 223, and a second spring 224. The locking seat 221 has a transverse groove 225 for the pin slider 222 to slide laterally. The laterally sliding pin slider 222 can engage with the lock hole 103 to lock or unlock. The groove 225 and the pin slider 222 are engaged by the second spring 224 to keep the pin slider 222 in a reset state. This helps maintain stable assembly.

[0028] A ramp groove 226 is provided on the latch slider 222. The push rod 223 is vertically slidably mounted on the locking seat 221, and its lower end is guided and engaged with the ramp groove 226. A stroke groove 227 is provided on the side of the locking seat 221, and a stroke block 2231 adapted to the stroke groove 227 is provided on the side of the push rod 223. The stroke block 2231 has a downward inclined surface 228, and a backrest 229 is provided inside the locking seat 221. The locking seat 221 is made of plastic, and the backrest 229 abuts against the side of the stroke block 2231. The stroke block 2231 restricts the movement of the push rod 223 within the stroke groove 227. At the same time, because it has a downward inclined surface 228, it can move downwards slightly. And because the locking seat 221 is made of plastic, it has good deformation capacity and can recover. This allows the push rod 223 to be lowered by excessive force, thus preventing the push rod 223 from breaking, thereby improving its reliability and extending its service life.

[0029] The locking module 220 converts the driving force F1 of the upper and lower pressures to realize the lateral movement of the pin slider 222, which can effectively lock and unlock the locking hole 103 of the inner groove 102, making it easy to operate. During the movement of the pin slider 222, the sliding groove 225 limits the movement to maintain stability, and the spring 224 is used for reset.

[0030] In order to make it easier for the latch slider 222 to move downwards from the high position lock hole 103 to the low position lock hole 103, the latch slider 222 is provided with a latch end 2221, which has a downward inclined surface 228. Through this downward inclined surface 228, the slider can descend smoothly by directly pressing the handle housing 210 without pressing the lifting switch 230.

[0031] To improve overall structural stability, the lifting switch 230 is symmetrically designed, with a spring groove 232 at its center, and a spring 240 assembled within it. Because the lifting switch 230 is relatively long, this structure guides multiple points, ensuring stable vertical movement of the switch and stable spring force, preventing the switch from jamming. Figure 5 As shown, the handle housing 210 rises to the position required by the user.

[0032] To facilitate ironing and improve the quality of ironed clothing, the iron's outer casing 101 includes a fragrance chamber 11, a fragrance inlet 12, a sealing cap 13, an atomizer 14, and a mist outlet 15. The fragrance inlet 12 connects to the fragrance chamber 11 and is sealed by the sealing cap 13. The atomizer 14 connects to the fragrance chamber 11 to atomize the fragrance liquid and discharge it downwards. The mist outlet 15 is located at the bottom of the iron body to guide the atomized fragrance. Fragrance is injected through the fragrance inlet 12, sealed by the sealing cap 13, and atomized by the atomizer 14. The mist outlet 15 allows for simultaneous ironing of clothes and fragrance mist, improving ironing quality.

[0033] The technical solution of the present invention has been described above with reference to the preferred embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention can have various modifications and variations. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
