The steam iron of the characteristic feature of this purpose by having claim 1 is achieved.Described steam iron has: water tank, its by cup with hydraulically be connected with steaming chamber, wherein cup has inlet that is connected with water tank wall and the outlet that is connected with steaming chamber; Be used to open and close the water clock guard valve of inlet; Adjusting rod movably, the thermosealed cup through hole of its extend past in cup, be used to regulate the water yield that flow to steaming chamber from cup via outlet, if adjusting rod is at least one primary importance, in this primary importance, movably adjusting rod has bar bypass section, if bar is in the second place, then it opens thermosealed cup through hole, and can realize making water flow to cup from water tank, flow to steaming chamber from cup via outlet again.
Cup under the meaning of the present invention means and comprises and have the into zone of the water circulation of water and water outlet, and water inlet is from water tank flow through inlet and/or cup through hole, and water outlet flow to steaming chamber via outlet.
Movably adjusting rod is normally at the thin bar that extends along the axis of basic straight line.This bar along the part of its length have circular or dimetric, regular or irregular, perpendicular to axis, constant cross section, and constitute by a fixture or a plurality of that be hinged or not hinged fixture, and in cup the thermosealed cup through hole of extend past, be used to regulate from cup and flow to the water yield of steaming chamber, if adjusting rod is at least one primary importance via outlet.Bar bypass section under the meaning of the present invention be bar as lower curtate, promptly this section is opened thermosealed cup through hole, is used to make that water flow to cup from water tank.
In order to be implemented in the essential heat seal of the thermosealed cup through hole of at least one primary importance, be provided with below with the thermal part that describes in detail.
Water tank is not only the container that is used to hold water, and be used to hold any liquid state, vaporizable, be suitable for the medium of steam ironing, comprise the suitable additive that is fed to described medium.Water receptacle can have one or more chambers, perhaps also can comprise one or more water container unit of separating, and these water container unit can have identical or different volumes.
The water clock guard valve opens and closes from water tank via entering the mouth to the water passage of cup.
The following design of solution: can realize that water flow to steaming chamber, and whether open irrelevant with the water clock guard valve that when movably adjusting rod is in the second place, is used for water passage.This cleaning course for steaming chamber is most important, because need the water of certain volume is incorporated in the steaming chamber in this process, makes described water vapor thus suddenly when temperature rises.A kind of movably flatiron of adjusting rod that has, this adjusting rod has bar bypass section, when described bar is in the second place, this adjusting rod can realize opening thermosealed cup through hole, and then make water flow to cup from water tank, flow to steaming chamber from cup via outlet again, and open or close irrelevant with bypass valve, steam iron than current prior art, above-mentioned flatiron is a kind ofly to make the diversion system that is used to clean steaming chamber that simply leads to steaming chamber, because this flatiron needs few parts and reduced manufacturing cost.
This is a kind of more efficiently system of flatiron system than prior art, because because simple in structure, so the ability of desirable or the effect expected that realizes under situation about not breaking down strengthens.In addition, it is that a kind of flatiron than prior art is used to clean the diversion system that leads to steaming chamber of steaming chamber more reliably, because only need move movably adjusting rod, so that fetch boiling water path, and needn't handle other parts that may lose efficacy of steam iron.It is a kind of clear and definite flatiron reliably, because diversion system that leads to steaming chamber such as utilization that it is used to clean steaming chamber the invention provides reliable result.
According to a kind of preferred design, movably adjusting rod can move between the two positions by controls.This controls can be machinery or electromagnetism, and when being incorporated into water in the steaming chamber and regulating the water yield that enters into steaming chamber, he is handled by expectation ground by the user usually, wherein he can also stop water inlet, perhaps wish bar is placed the second place, in this second place, user close friend's mode is opened thermosealed cup through hole.This controls is useful, the user can open thermosealed cup through hole thus, and then can be so that water flow to cup via described cup through hole and flow into the steaming chamber from cup, wherein he wittingly with quantitative water be incorporated into steaming chamber inside, and needn't be concerned about that adjusting rod is in the second place that is not suitable for pressing and makes adjusting rod be returned to the primary importance that is suitable for pressing.
According to another kind design, as previously mentioned, thermosealed cup through hole is provided with lip ring, and this lip ring contacts with outer surface at the movably adjusting rod of primary importance.The sealing part can be circlewise or is replenished the section of the movably adjusting rod of primary importance quadrilateral, thereby the sealing part is realized heat seal.
