As shown in fig. 1, the detecting unit 12 is telescopically disposed at one end of the iron body 11 and close to the heating plate 14. In particular, at the front end of the iron body 11. As shown in fig. 2, when the detection unit 12 needs to be used, the first control unit 13 controls the detection unit 12 to extend out of the iron body 11 to perform metal detection within a set range.

In an application scenario, the ironing device 10 is further provided with an operation button, and the first control unit 13 is connected to the first control unit 13, and the first control unit 13 controls the detection unit 12 to extend out of the iron body 11 in response to a touch of the operation button, so as to perform metal detection on the target object.

The description is made with reference to fig. 2 and 3:

Referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 is a schematic structural diagram of a third embodiment of the ironing device provided by the present application.

The ironing apparatus 50 includes an iron body 51, a heating plate 52, a plurality of sensing units 53, and a first control unit (not shown). A plurality of through holes are provided at one side of the heating plate 52 for receiving the sensing units 53. Each of which accommodates one detection unit 53. When the metal detection function is required to be used, the first control unit controls the detection unit 53 to perform metal detection within a set range. During the movement of the iron body 51, a larger area can be detected, and the metal detection of the target object can be completed more quickly.

The detection unit in the above embodiment is explained below:

in some embodiments, the detection unit includes a circuit element. The first detection unit is used for responding to the change of the preset parameter and determining that the detection unit detects the metal.

For example, the circuit element may be an inductive electrode, the inductive electrode is connected to the first control unit, and the inductive electrode is used to form an inductive capacitance with metal in a set range; the first control unit is used for responding to the fact that the capacitance of the induction capacitor is larger than the preset capacitance, and determining that the detection unit detects metal. The description is made with reference to fig. 6 and 7: when metal exists in the target detection object, as shown in fig. 6, the sensing electrode B gradually approaches the metal C during the movement of the iron body, and when the sensing electrode B approaches the metal C, the sensing electrode B and the metal C form a sensing capacitance as the distance between the sensing electrode B and the metal C approaches. As the movement continues, the effective area between the sensing electrode B and the metal C increases, as shown in fig. 7, and the capacitance of the sensing capacitor increases accordingly. The first control unit is used for responding to the fact that the capacitance of the induction capacitor is larger than the preset capacitance, and determining that the detection unit detects metal.

For another example, the circuit element is a resonant coil, the resonant coil is connected with the first control unit, and the resonant parameter of the resonant coil changes along with the approach of the metal; the first control unit is used for responding to the fact that the variable quantity of the resonance parameter of the resonance coil exceeds a preset threshold value, and determining that the detection unit detects the metal. For example, the resonance parameter may be coupling inductance, coupling resistance, resonance frequency or period. The description is made with reference to fig. 8 and 9: when a metal is present in the target detection object, a magnetic field is generated in the resonance coil D in the energized state, as shown in fig. 8. The resonance coil D can slowly approach to the metal E along with the moving process of the iron body, and when the resonance coil D approaches to the metal E, the metal E generates eddy current under the action of a magnetic field, so that the resonance parameters of the resonance coil D are changed. As the movement is continued, as shown in fig. 9, the resonance parameter of the resonance coil D increases with the approach of the metal E, and the amount of change in the resonance parameter increases. The first control unit is used for responding to the fact that the variable quantity of the resonance parameter of the resonance coil exceeds a preset threshold value, and determining that the detection unit detects the metal.

In some embodiments, the detection unit comprises a magnetic switch, which opens or closes in response to the approach of metal within a set range; the first control unit is used for responding to the opening or closing of the magnetic switch and determining that the detection unit detects the metal.

For example, as shown in fig. 10, the magnetic switch F includes a magnet F1 and a switch F2, wherein the switch F2 is in a normally open state. As the iron body moves, the magnetic switch F approaches the metal G slowly, and when the magnetic switch F approaches the metal G, the metal G is attracted by the magnet, so that the switch F2 is closed, and the state shown in fig. 11 is formed. The first control unit detects that the switch F2 is closed, and determines that the detection unit detects metal.

For another example, as shown in fig. 12, the magnetic switch H includes a magnet H1 and a switch H2, wherein the switch H2 is in a normally closed state. As the iron body moves, the magnetic switch H approaches the metal I slowly, and when the magnetic switch H approaches the metal I, the metal I is attracted by the magnet, so that the switch H2 is turned off, and the state shown in fig. 13 is formed. The first control unit detects that the switch H2 is open, and determines that the detection unit detects metal.

For another example, as shown in fig. 14, the magnetic switch J is a single-pole single-throw type switch, and is in a normally open state, in which the single pole J1 has magnetism. As the iron body moves within the set range, the magnetic switch J approaches the metal K slowly, and when the magnetic switch J approaches the metal K, the single blade J1 approaches the metal K due to its too small mass, and the switch J is closed by the magnetic field, thereby forming a state shown in fig. 15. The first control unit detects that the switch J is closed, and determines that the detection unit detects metal.

For another example, as shown in fig. 16, the magnetic switch L is a single-pole single-throw type switch, and is in a normally closed state, in which the single-pole L1 has magnetism. As the iron body moves within the set range, the magnetic switch L gradually approaches the metal M, and when the magnetic switch L approaches the metal M, the single blade L1 approaches the metal M due to its too small mass, and the switch L is turned off as shown in fig. 17. The first control unit detects that the switch L is turned off, and determines that the detection unit detects metal.

It will be appreciated that in the various embodiments described above, the detection unit in the ironing apparatus may adopt any one of the above, or any combination thereof, to further implement the metal detection.

The detection unit 182, the heating plate 184, and the temperature sensing element 185 are connected to a first control unit 183. The temperature sensing element 185 is disposed on the heating plate 184 for acquiring the temperature of the heating plate 184. The first control unit 183 is further configured to control the iron body 181 to stop working in response to the detection unit 182 detecting metal and the temperature detected by the temperature sensing element 185 exceeding a preset temperature threshold. It can be understood that when metal is detected, the first control unit 183 determines that the iron body 181 is in the working state by that the temperature detected by the temperature sensing element 185 exceeds a preset temperature threshold, and controls the iron body 181 to stop working, or indeed controls the heating plate 184 to stop working.

Referring to fig. 19, fig. 19 is a schematic structural view of a fifth embodiment of the ironing device provided by the present application. The ironing device 190 comprises an iron body 191, a detection unit 192, a first control unit 193, a heating plate 194 and an electromagnetic base 196. The electromagnetic base 196 is spaced apart from the iron body 191, and the electromagnetic base 196 includes a heating coil 1962, a second control unit 1963, a partition 1961, and a housing 1964.

Specifically, the electromagnetic base 196 is wirelessly connected with the iron body 191, and a wireless signal transmitter (not shown) is arranged on the iron body 191 and connected with the first control unit 193. The electromagnetic base 196 is provided with a wireless signal receiver (not shown) connected to a second control unit 1963. In an application scenario, the heating coil 1962 is controlled by the second control unit of the electromagnetic base 196 to operate, so that the heating plate 194 generates heat when the iron body 191 enters a set range, and is further used for ironing a target article. During ironing, the first control unit 193 controls the detection unit 192 to start a metal detection function in synchronization, and performs metal detection along with the movement of the iron body 191. When the detection unit 192 detects a metal, the first control unit 193 controls the wireless signal transmitter to transmit a stop command to the wireless signal receiver, so that the second control unit 1963 controls the heating coil 1962 to stop operating based on the stop command, and the electromagnetic field generated accordingly disappears. So as to avoid the metal heating to damage the target object under the action of the electromagnetic field.

In some embodiments, the ironing device 190 further comprises a speaker. The speaker is disposed on the iron body 191 and connected to the first control unit, and the first control unit 193 is further configured to control the speaker to remind in response to the detection unit 192 detecting the metal.
