DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0017] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model are described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the attached drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Of course, the described embodiments represent only a portion of the embodiments of the present utility model, not all of them. Starting from the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments that a person skilled in the art can produce without creative effort fall within the scope of the present utility model.

[0018] As in the Fig. 1-6, the present utility model represents a technical solution: a multifunctional household steam cleaner comprising a box 1, a cover 2, a heater assembly 3, an ozone generator 4 and a panel 5.

[0019] wherein the box 1 and the cover 2 can rotate relative to each other, wherein the heater assembly 3 is installed inside the box 1, wherein the ozone generator 4 can generate ozone gas when it operates, and wherein the ozone gas has a bactericidal and disinfecting effect, and wherein the panel 5 is installed in an upper part of the box 1, and wherein the panel 5 is installed with a display screen 6.

[0020] The heater assembly 3 includes a high-pressure pump 31, a low-pressure pump 32, and a heating element 33, and the high-pressure pump 31, the low-pressure pump 32, and the heating element 33 are installed inside the box 1. The inlet of the high-pressure pump 31 is connected to a T-water inlet pipe 34, and the outlet is connected to a T-one-way valve pipe 35.

[0021] The outlet of the T-way valve pipe 35 is connected to the inlet of the heating element 33, the outlet of the heating element 33 is connected to the water outlet pipe 37, the outlet of the water outlet pipe 37 is connected to the water outlet port 38, the outlet of the T-water inlet pipe 34 is connected together with the distribution pipe 36 and to the inlet of the low-pressure pump 32, and the inlet of the T-way valve pipe 35 is connected to the outlet of the low-pressure pump 32;

[0022] A T-water inlet pipe 34, a distribution pipe 36, a low-pressure pump 32, a T-one-way valve pipe 35, a heating element 33, a water outlet pipe 37 and a water outlet connection 38 together form a first path, the first path being characterized by a small and slow flow of water, which allows the formation of steam;

[0023] A T-water inlet pipe 34, a high-pressure pump 31, a T-one-way valve pipe 35, a heating element 33, a water outlet pipe 37 and a water outlet connection 38 together form a second path, the second path being characterized by a large and rapid flow of water, which enables the formation of hot water.

[0024] Without activating the heater assembly 3, the water from the high-pressure pump 31 flows directly through the heater assembly and then directly enters the water outlet pipe 37, thereby achieving a high-pressure cleaning function, and thereby achieving multifunctional cleaning.

[0025] Therefore, it is sufficient to pneumatically pump the low-pressure pump 32 or the high-pressure pump 31 as needed, and the T-way valve pipe 35 is provided so that the water can only flow from the low-pressure pump 32 to the heating element 33 or from the high-pressure pump 31 to the heating element 33 and cannot flow back.

[0026] Finally, the side portion of the box 1 is reserved for the arrangement of the inlet and outlet window 11, and the rear surface of the box 1 is reserved for the arrangement of the outlet window 12. The inlet and outlet window 11 is provided with a fan 13 on the inside. After the fan 13 is rotated, an external airflow enters the box 1 through the inlet and outlet windows 11. After the airflow dissipates the heat generated by the heater assembly 3 and the ozone generator 4 during their operation, it is discharged through the outlet window 12 to protect electronic devices in the box 1.
