Heater 425 extends along the path in the outside in Vorticose flow path with U-shaped.Thus, the steam produced in the space surrounded by inner chamber wall 432 is heated while towards blast pipe 422.Thus, the steam of high temperature is discharged.
Steam generator 420 penetrates water to by the wall heated and makes its flash evaporation, and therefore with compared with the vaporific conventional art of heater under water, the power consumption produced needed for identical vapor volume is few.
As shown in Figure 2, steam generator 420 is configured at the position being positioned at top than accepting groove 200.When water gasifies in cavity space 430, be supplied to the impurity that contains in the water of steam generator 420 formed cavity space 430 wall (the exocoel locular wall 431 of main leaf 423, inner chamber wall 432, above 429 and cover plate 424 below 434) attachment or precipitation.If the wall that impurity is forming cavity space 430 is piled up, then the heat transference efficiency between wall and the water being supplied to cavity space 430 reduces.Its result, shipwreck to evaporate in cavity space 430.But in the present embodiment, because steam generator 420 is configured at the position being positioned at top than accepting groove 200, the impurity of therefore attachment or precipitation is by being discharged by the effect of pressure, gravity in the gasification generation of water to the below of steam generator 420 or fall.Thus, impurity is easily discharged to accepting groove 200 in cavity space 430.Its result, in the chamber of steam generator 420, the impurity of attachment or precipitation is not easily piled up.Thus, the reduction of vaporization ability of accumulation of impurity is resulted from hardly.
< water supply mechanism >
Figure 11 is the synoptic diagram of water supply mechanism 500.With reference to Figure 11, water supply mechanism 500 is described.
The water supply mechanism 500 that cavity space 430 to steam generator 420 penetrates water comprises above-mentioned feed water valve 310, hopper 320, pump 330 and tube connector 421.Water supply mechanism 500 also comprises the level sensor 321 for measuring the water level in hopper 320.Feed water valve 310 can according to the water level detected by level sensor 321 carry out to hopper 320 water supply or stop to the water supply of hopper 320.In the present embodiment, level sensor 321 illustrates as the first detecting element.
Also feed water valve 310 can be controlled according to the actuation time of pump 330 and/or pattern (intermittent water supply action and/or continuous print water supply action).Such as, when the release of pump 330, the output that can adjust from feed water valve 310 makes hopper 320 become empty., not easily there is freezing of the water in hopper 320 in its result.
The water be stored in hopper 320 is supplied to cavity space 430 by tube connector 421 by pump 330.The intermittent water supply action of pump 330 is adjusted, makes the water flash evaporation injected in cavity space 430.
The result of the water evaporation in cavity space 430, the impurity contained in water is piled up sometimes in cavity space 430.The continuous print water supply action of pump 330 is adjusted, makes water flow into cavity space 430 with the flow velocity being enough to wash away the impurity of accumulation.
Blast pipe 422 is connected with steam conduction pipe 340.The steam produced in cavity space 430 by the intermittent water supply action of pump 330 and flow into accepting groove 200 by blast pipe 422 and steam conduction pipe 340 by the water that the continuous print water supply action of pump 330 flows in cavity space 430.
The steam of < to accepting groove and the supply > of water
Figure 12 is the rearview of the outline of the front portion 222 of accepting groove 200.With reference to Fig. 1, Figure 11 and Figure 12, the supply to accepting groove 200 of steam and water is described.
As shown in Figure 1, the annulus 224 of anterior 222 comprises the inner face 225 opposite with swing roller 210 and the outside 226 opposite with the antetheca 111 of framework 110.Figure 12 mainly illustrates inner face 225.
Steam supply mechanism 300 possesses the bifurcated pipe 351 and nozzle 352 that are installed on inner face 225.Steam supply mechanism 300 also possesses the steam pipe 353 connecting bifurcated pipe 351 and nozzle 352.Steam conduction pipe 340 is connected with bifurcated pipe 351 by surrounding wall portion 223.
The steam produced in cavity space 430 increases along with the pressure in cavity space 430 and flows into steam conduction pipe 340 by blast pipe 422.Afterwards, steam arrives bifurcated pipe 351 from steam conduction pipe 340.Nozzle 352 is disposed in the position being positioned at top than bifurcated pipe 351.The steam arriving the high temperature of bifurcated pipe 351 is directed into steam pipe 353, arrives nozzle 352.Finally, steam sprays downwards from nozzle 352.In the present embodiment, the steam produced in cavity space 430 is guided to nozzle 352 by blast pipe 422, steam conduction pipe 340, bifurcated pipe 351 and steam pipe 353.Thus, blast pipe 422, steam conduction pipe 340, bifurcated pipe 351 and steam pipe 353 are exemplified as guiding tube.
As mentioned above, the pump 330 carrying out intermittent water supply action penetrates appropriate water, therefore water flash evaporation to the cavity space 430 of high temperature.Its result, the interior pressure of cavity space 430 sharply increases.Thus, steam from nozzle 352 with high-pressure injection, the inner space of upper and lower crosscut accepting groove 200.Clothing easily concentrates on the lower end of swing roller 210 due to gravity.Because the steam sprayed from the nozzle 352 on the top being installed on accepting groove 200 arrives the lower end of swing roller 210, therefore steam is provided to clothing efficiently.
Bifurcated pipe 351 possess be connected with steam conduction pipe 340 female pipe 354, from the bending upward upper sub-pipe 355 of female pipe 354 and from the bending downwards lower sub-pipe 356 of female pipe 354.Steam or water flow into female pipe 354 by steam conduction pipe 340.Upper sub-pipe 355 is connected with steam pipe 353, and regulation steam is towards the path upwards of nozzle 352.In the present embodiment, the path upwards specified by upper sub-pipe 355 and steam pipe 353 illustrates as the first path.Female pipe 354 illustrates as inflow pipe.Upper sub-pipe 355 illustrates as the first pipe.
Lower sub-pipe 356 is different from upper sub-pipe 355, specifies downward path.During pump 330 carries out continuous print water supply action, the water flowing into bifurcated pipe 351 by steam conduction pipe 340 due to Action of Gravity Field by lower sub-pipe 356 to dirty.In the present embodiment, the downward path specified by lower sub-pipe 356 illustrates as the second path.Lower sub-pipe 356 illustrates as the second pipe.
Figure 12 illustrates the angle theta 1 between female pipe 354 and upper sub-pipe 355.And Figure 12 also illustrates the angle theta 2 between female pipe 354 and lower sub-pipe 356.Angle theta 1 is obtuse angle, and angle theta 2 is acute angle.Because angle theta 2 is acute angle, therefore larger from the flow losses of the downward sub-pipe 356 of female pipe 354.Thus, the steam flowing into female pipe 354 flows to lower sub-pipe 356 hardly, and flows mostly to sub-pipe 355.On the other hand, because upper sub-pipe 355 specifies flow path upwards, the water therefore flowing into female pipe 354 flows to upper sub-pipe 355 hardly due to the effect of gravity, flow mostly to lower sub-pipe 356.Thus, the flow path of steam and the flow path of water are properly separated.
The action > of the pump of < interval
Figure 13 is the diagram of the relation of the temperature roughly represented in the intermitten of pump 330 and cavity space 430.The intermitten of pump 330 is described with reference to Fig. 8, Figure 11 and Figure 13.
