Referring to fig. 2, in some embodiments, the main body 3 has a first limit structure thereon, and the first limit structure is used for sliding-fitting with the second sliding part when the ironing board 1 is in the unfolded state, so as to limit the movement of the ironing board 1 along the height direction of the main body 3.

That is to say, the first limiting structure can play a role in positioning or prompting the sliding of the second sliding portion, when the second sliding portion slides to be matched with the first limiting structure, it is indicated that the ironing board 1 has moved to the unfolded state shown in fig. 2, and at this time, the ironing board 1 is limited to continue moving through the matching of the second sliding portion and the first limiting structure, so as to ensure that the ironing board 1 can accurately move to be in the unfolded state, so that the ironing operation can be performed by the user.

Illustratively, the first limit structure includes a limit rib 32 provided on the host 3 and protruding in a direction away from the host 3.

When the second sliding part slides to abut on the limiting convex rib 32, the ironing board 1 is completely unfolded at this time, and the ironing board 1 is in the horizontal unfolding position shown in fig. 2, at this time, the limiting convex rib 32 can prevent the second sliding part from continuously sliding upwards.

Referring to fig. 3, in some embodiments, the host 3 includes a base 33 and a body 34; the main body 34 is disposed on the base 33, and the main body 34 can move toward or away from the base 33; the ironing board 1 and the folding support means 2 are both connected to the main body 34.

In the above technical solution, the main machine 3 is provided with the base 33 and the main body 34, the ironing board 1 and the folding supporting mechanism 2 are connected with the main body 34, and the main body 34 can move along the direction close to or far away from the base 33, so that the height between the ironing board 1 and the base 33 can be adjusted, and the ironing board is suitable for the requirements of users with different heights.

During specific implementation, the electric push rod 35 can be arranged in the base 33, the fixed end of the electric push rod 35 is connected with the base 33, and the movable end of the electric push rod 35 is connected with the main body 34, so that the main body 34 can be driven to move along the height direction of the base 33, and stepless adjustment of the height of the ironing board 1 can be achieved.

Further, one side of the ironing board 1 close to the folding supporting mechanism 2 is provided with a containing groove 13, and when the ironing board 1 is in a folded state, the folding supporting mechanism 2 is at least partially located in the containing groove 13, so that the whole volume of the ironing device after the ironing board 1 is folded is further reduced, and the storage space is saved.

In this embodiment, the process of switching the ironing device from the folded state to the unfolded state is as follows:

first, referring to fig. 6-1 and 6-2, when the ironing board 1 is in a folded state, the ironing board 1 is completely folded and folded at the left side of the main machine 3, at this time, the first locking shaft 111 of the first locking piece 11 on the ironing board 1 extends into the first locking hole 61 of the locking connection piece 6, the second locking shaft 311 of the second locking piece 31 on the main machine 3 moves out of the second locking hole 62 of the locking connection piece 6, at this time, the ironing board 1 cannot rotate relative to the main machine 3, and the ironing board 1 is in a locked state.

Next, the ironing board 1 starts to be unfolded, firstly, the power cord of the ironing apparatus is connected and the ironing apparatus is started, the electric control system of the ironing apparatus starts the telescopic member 213 of the supporting rod assembly 21, and the second supporting member 212 and the ironing board 1 are driven to be lifted up to the set height by the extension of the telescopic member 213, and the position state of the ironing board 1 is shown in fig. 5-1, fig. 5-2 and fig. 5-3.

Then, the first locking shaft 111 of the first locking member 11 of the ironing board 1 is moved out of the first locking hole 61 of the locking link 6, at which time the locking of the ironing board 1 is released and the ironing board 1 can be rotated with respect to the main body 3. At this time, the ironing board 1 can be pushed obliquely downward by hand, the sliding block 5 slides upward along the sliding rail 4, and simultaneously the ironing board 1 rotates counterclockwise around the rotation connection point D of the ironing board connecting member 12 and the locking connecting member 6.

At this time, the telescopic member 213 is in a non-activated state, the number of freedom degrees of movement of the ironing apparatus is 1, during the movement process of manually pushing the ironing board 1 obliquely downward, the first supporting member 211, the telescopic member 213, and the second supporting member 212 simultaneously rotate counterclockwise around the rotation connection point a of the supporting rod assembly 21 and the main machine 3, and the third supporting member 22 simultaneously rotates clockwise around the rotation connection point C of the third supporting member 22 and the supporting rod assembly 21, so that when the ironing board 1 moves until the sliding block 5 contacts with the limiting convex rib 32 of the main body 34, the ironing board 1 is unfolded until the ironing board 1 is in an unfolded state (as shown in fig. 2 and fig. 3).

Then, when the ironing board 1 is rotated to be in the unfolded state, the second locking shaft 311 of the second locking member 31 on the main body 3 is pressed at this time, so that the second locking shaft 311 is extended into the second locking hole 62 of the locking link 6, achieving the reliable locking of the ironing board 1.

It should be noted that in this embodiment, a micro switch or an infrared sensor may be disposed at the position of the limit protruding rib 32 of the main machine 3, and when the slider 5 moves to contact with the limit protruding rib 32, the micro switch or the infrared sensor may automatically trigger the second locking shaft 311 to extend into the second locking hole 62 of the locking connector 6, so as to lock the ironing board 1.

Through the above process, the ironing board 1 is switched from the folded state to the unfolded state. When the ironing board 1 is unfolded, the height of the ironing board 1 can be adjusted according to the height of the user. The specific process is as follows:

after the ironing board 1 is in the unfolded state and locked, the height of the ironing board 1 is the initial design height at this time, and the height of the ironing board 1 can be adjusted according to the height of the user. Specifically, the electric push rod 35 is started, and the electric push rod 35 is lifted to jack the main body 34; meanwhile, as the ironing board 1 is locked with the main body 34 of the main machine 3 through the second locking member 31, and the first supporting member 211 is hinged with the main machine 3 at the point a, the ironing board 1, the main machine 3, the first supporting member 211, the telescopic member 213 and the second supporting member 212 form a triangular mechanism, so that the triangular mechanism has good stability, the ironing board 1 can keep a horizontal posture and lift up along with the main body 34, and the electric push rod 35 is closed after the ironing board 1 rises to a required height; during this process the third support 22 rotates anticlockwise around point C, providing a reliable support for the ironing board 1.

Accordingly, the process of switching the ironing apparatus from the unfolded state to the folded state is:

first, the ironing board 1 is lowered to the initial design height, the specific process is:

the electric push rod 35 is started, the electric push rod 35 retracts, the main body 34 is driven to descend, the ironing board 1 horizontally descends along with the descending of the main body 34, and meanwhile the third supporting piece 22 rotates clockwise around the point C, so that reliable supporting is provided for the ironing board 1. From this, this ironing board 1 can realize the stepless regulation of level, and goes up and down and drive by electric putter 35, and is steady, convenient and safe.

Referring to fig. 2, the ironing board 1 is in the unfolded state at this time, and the second locking shaft 311 is extended into the second locking hole 62 of the locking link 6, at which time the ironing board 1 is locked.

Then, the second locking shaft 311 is moved out of the second locking hole 62 to unlock the ironing board 1, and the ironing board 1 can be rotated. At the moment, the number of the freedom degrees of the movement of the ironing device is 1, then, a pressing pressure is applied to one side of the ironing board 1 close to the main machine 3, the locking connecting piece 6 moves downwards under the sliding of the sliding block 5, and the ironing board 1 is driven to rotate around the point D. Meanwhile, since the telescopic member 213 and the electric handspike 35 are both in the non-activated state, the first support 211, the telescopic member 213, the second support 212 and the third support 22 will be folded back synchronously during the movement of the ironing board 1. The first support 211, the telescopic member 213 and the second support 212 rotate clockwise around the point a, and the third support 22 rotates counterclockwise around the point C, as shown in fig. 4.

Then, when the ironing board 1 is folded back to the designated position (as shown in fig. 5-1, 5-2 and 5-3), the first locking shaft 111 of the first locking member 11 is pressed such that the first locking shaft 111 protrudes into the first locking hole 61 of the locking link 6, thereby achieving the locking of the ironing table.

Finally, the retractable member 213 is started, the retractable member 213 retracts to drive the second supporting member 212, the ironing board 1, the locking connecting member 6 and the sliding block 5 to move downwards to the designated position (as shown in fig. 6-1 and 6-2), and at this time, the ironing board 1 further moves downwards under the retractable action of the retractable member 213, so that the overall height of the folded ironing device is smaller and the folded ironing device is convenient to store.

It should be noted that a sensing device such as a microswitch may be provided on the first locking hole 61 of the locking link 6 or the first locking shaft 111 of the first locking member 11, and the retraction of the extensible member 213 is automatically triggered after the first locking shaft 111 is extended into the first locking hole 61 to lock the ironing board 1.

It should be noted that, in the ironing apparatus of this embodiment, in the process of unfolding or folding the ironing board 1, only the ironing board 1 needs to be pushed by pressing manually, and the folding supporting mechanism 2 can be linked to perform corresponding movement, so as to complete the folding or unfolding operation, and therefore, the unfolding or folding process of the ironing board 1 of the ironing apparatus of this embodiment is a single-step folding or single-step unfolding, which is more convenient for the user to operate.

Example two
