At this time, the water pump 130 is used as an air pump, and a separate air pump air pipe is not required to be arranged, so that the water pump 130 sucks air through the water return pipe; when the water pump 130 pumps the sub-tank 121 to a near vacuum state through the water return pipe, water in the mother tank 110 enters the sub-tank 121 through the water inlet pipe; when the water entering the sub water tank 121 exceeds the upper part of the water return pipe, the water which does not pass through the upper part of the water return pipe flows back to the mother water tank 110 through the water return pipe; the design simplifies the pipeline structure in the water tank, and realizes ventilation and water return through a water return pipeline. At this time, the water pump 130 may be disposed in the sub-tank 121; or in the mother water tank 110; or at an area outside the sub tank 121/the mother tank 110 communicating with the return pipe (e.g., between the mother tank 110 and the sub tank 121).
In some embodiments, the water inlet power unit includes an air pump, which may be disposed inside the sub-tank 121; or inside the parent water tank 110; or the sub-tank 121/the mother tank 110 (e.g., between the sub-tank 121 and the mother tank 110), the air pump pumps air in the sub-tank 121 to form a high pressure environment in the mother tank 110, so as to press water in the mother tank 110 into the sub-tank 121. Specifically, an air pipe (an air pipe for communicating the air in the mother water tank 110 and the child water tank 121) is provided near the water return pipe, the air pipe is communicated with the air pump, one end of the air pipe extends to the upper portion of the child water tank 121, and the end of the air pipe is higher than the upper portion of the water return pipe to prevent the water in the child water tank 121 from entering the air pipe; one end of the air pipe extends into the mother water tank 110, and the end of the air pipe is positioned above the water surface of the mother water tank 110 or inserted into the water; the air pump is activated to change the air pressure in the sub-tank 121.
When an influent power unit is used, a portion of the influent power unit requires power, and therefore, in some embodiments, a power supply assembly (not shown) is also included for powering the influent power unit. At this time, for the convenience of use of the user, the water inlet power unit and the power supply assembly are both arranged in the sub-water tank 121, so that the power supply assembly conveniently supplies power to the water inlet power unit and the steam generator; for example, the power supply assembly may be a charging plug, which may be disposed outside the housing of the sub-tank, and the charging plug is connected to an external power supply. In some embodiments, in order to reduce the weight of the ironing machine, the power supply assembly and the water inlet power unit are respectively arranged on the sub water tank and the main water tank. Specifically, the water inlet power unit is selected to be arranged on the mother water tank 110, but at this time, in order to meet the power supply requirements of the steam generator and the water inlet power unit, power supply components are required to be arranged on the sub water tank and the mother water tank.

In some embodiments, the preset scale is set to be 100mL, the preset scale is smaller than the volume of the water cavity of the sub-tank, and the upper part of the water return pipeline is flush with the preset scale; so that when the sub-tank is filled with water, the excess water flows back into the main tank 110 through the return pipe.
The preset scale may be any value. In some embodiments, the preset scale is related to the water consumption required for ironing a piece of clothes, for example, the preset scale is the water consumption required for ironing a piece of clothes; when one garment is ironed, a user can finish the ironed garment and can replenish water to the sub water tank through the main water tank again; this kind of setting irones the clearance with the user and water tank moisturizing seamless connection, and user experience is good. In other embodiments, the predetermined scale may correspond to an amount of water required to iron a plurality of garments. In other embodiments, the preset scale can be set to be the corresponding water level of the sub-tank when the water amount in the sub-tank is 50% -95% of the total volume of the water cavity, compared with a scheme that the preset scale is related to the water amount needed by ironing clothes, the scheme can relatively reduce the water supplementing times, and meanwhile, sufficient water return space and air flowing space (when an air pump is arranged) are reserved in the water cavity of the sub-tank.
Fixed zone the various embodiments in this specification are described in a progressive manner, and like parts may be referred to one another, with each embodiment focusing on the differences from the other embodiments. In particular, for the system embodiment, since it is substantially similar to the method embodiment, the description is simple, and for the relevant points, reference may be made to the partial description of the method embodiment.
