After the air flow generated by the fan 200 enters the air outlet channel 103 from the air inlet end 1031, the air flow can enter the steam channel 102 from the air outlet end 1032 of the air outlet channel 103. Because the steam channel 102 needs to generate steam at a high temperature, scale may accumulate in the steam channel 102, and powder and impurities are generated, and when the air flow formed by the fan 200 flows through the steam channel 102, the powder and impurities in the steam channel 102 can be taken away, so that the powder and impurities are discharged from the steam outlet 104 along with the air flow, and the effect of cleaning the steam channel 102 is achieved.

In some embodiments, the ironing device 10 further comprises a spacer 300, the spacer 300 is inserted in the air outlet channel 103, and the spacer 300 is movable relative to the air outlet channel 103 to close or open the air outlet channel 103.
