具体实施方式
下面详细描述本发明的实施例，所述实施例的示例在附图中示出。下面通过参考附图描述的实施例是示例性的，旨在用于解释本发明，而不能理解为对本发明的限制。
在本发明的描述中，需要理解的是，术语“中心”、“长度”、“上”、“下”、“左”、“右”、“竖直”、“水平”、“顶”、“底”、“内”、“外”、“径向”、“周向”等指示的方位或位置关系为基于附图所示的方位或位置关系，仅是为了便于描述本发明和简化描述，而不是指示或暗示所指的装置或元件必须具有特定的方位、以特定的方位构造和操作，因此不能理解为对本发明的限制。
下面参考图1-图21描述根据本发明实施例的蒸汽发生器100。蒸汽发生器100可以用在蒸汽发生器系统1000中，并随蒸汽发生器系统1000一起应用在家用电器例如吸尘器、挂烫机、油烟机、咖啡机、洗衣机、空调或微波炉等中，以用于产生蒸汽。
根据本发明实施例的蒸汽发生器可以包括壳体1和形成于壳体1内的加热元件3。加热元件3可将壳体1内的水加热汽化成蒸汽，从而方便家用电器的使用。
壳体1内具有密封的空腔，具体地，壳体1内限定出彼此间隔开的至少两个腔室，加热元件3可以加热至少两个腔室，至少两个腔室之间分别通过连通槽21连通，从而便于其中一个腔室内的蒸汽经过连通槽21进入到另一个腔室。
其中两个腔室分别具有进水口13和蒸汽出口14。例如，当壳体1内限定出两个腔室时，其中一个腔室与进水口13连通，另一个腔室与蒸汽出口14连通。由此，在蒸汽 发生器100的使用过程中，在加热元件3的加热下，水蒸汽可从与蒸汽出口14连通的腔室通过蒸汽出口14排出，同时可以通过进水口13向与进水口13连通的腔室内加水，避免了现有的锅炉式蒸汽发生器中加水不方便的问题，而且相比现有较大体积的锅炉式蒸汽发生器，本发明中的蒸汽发生器具有较小的体积，当蒸汽发生器100随蒸汽发生器系统1000用在家用电器中时，有利于实现加热电器的小型化。
在壳体1内具有流体通道，流体通道从进水口13经过至少两个腔室并延伸至蒸汽出口14。例如，当壳体1内限定出两个腔室时，其中一个腔室与进水口13连通，另一个腔室与蒸汽出口14连通，流体通道从进水口、经过与进水口连通的腔室、经过两个腔室之间的连通槽、经过与蒸汽出口14连通的腔室延伸至蒸汽出口14。从而当加热元件3将与进水口13连通的腔室内的水加热汽化成水蒸汽后，以便于水蒸汽在流体通道中单向流通，并流向蒸汽出口14，且从蒸汽出口14流出。
可以理解的是，当水蒸汽在流体通道中流通时，加热元件3加热产生的热量可以进一步对流体通道中的水蒸汽进行加热(例如，将加热元件3设在腔室的侧壁上以加热至少两个腔室)，从而可以提高加热元件3与水蒸汽之间的换热面积，同时有利于提高水蒸汽的干燥度和温度。
根据本发明实施例的蒸汽发生器100，通过在壳体1内限定出彼此间隔开的至少两个腔室，且使至少两个腔室之间分别通过连通槽21连通，同时使得进水口13和蒸汽出口14分别与其中两个腔室连通，由此，当蒸汽从与蒸汽出口14连通的腔室内排出时，可方便通过进水口13向与进水口13连通的腔室内加水，而且本发明的蒸汽发生器100与现有的锅炉式蒸汽发生器相比，具有较小的体积，当蒸汽发生器100随蒸汽发生器系统1000用在家用电器中时，有利于实现家用电器的小型化。
根据本发明的一些实施例，如图21所示，壳体1内限定出第一腔室11至第三腔室17，第三腔室17和第二腔室12并排设在壳体1内，且第三腔室17和第二腔室12的侧壁与壳体1的内侧壁之间限定出第一腔室11，第一腔室11与第三腔室17之间通过第一连通槽211连通，第三腔室17和第二腔室12之间通过第二连通槽212连通，结构简单。具体地，加热元件3设在第三腔室17和第二腔室12的侧壁上以加热第一腔室11、第二腔室12和第三腔室17。例如，加热元件3包括两个，且分别环绕第三腔室17和第二腔室12，并分别设在第三腔室17和第二腔室12的侧壁上，以便于加热元件3加热第一腔室11、第二腔室12和第三腔室17，以使壳体1内的水迅速汽化成水蒸汽，当蒸汽在流体通道中流通时，以便于加热元件3进一步对水蒸汽的加热，从而有利于提高蒸汽出口14处蒸汽的温度和干燥度。
进一步地，进水口13与第一腔室11连通，蒸汽出口14与第二腔室12连通，由此，流体通道从进水口13、第一腔室11、第一连通槽211、第三腔室17、第二连通槽212、第二腔室12、延伸至蒸汽出口14。从而有利于延长流体通道的长度，以便于加热元件3在流体通道中不断地加热水蒸汽，从而提高蒸汽出口14处蒸汽的干燥度和温度。
根据本发明的一些实施例，如图3-图4以及图6、图8、图10-图15、图20所示， 壳体1内通过分隔壁2限定出彼此间隔开的第一腔室11和第二腔室12。由此，设置在壳体1内的分隔壁2有利于增大壳体1的内表面积，从而便于附着更多的水垢，在一定程度上避免因水垢过多而导致的蒸汽发生器100的效能降低甚至损坏，延长了蒸汽发生器100的使用寿命。
分隔壁2上设有将第一腔室11和第二腔室12进行流体连通的至少一个连通槽21。加热元件3包括电气接线端31，加热元件3的的电气接线端31穿过形成于壳体1上的穿孔外露。
壳体1上具有进水口13和蒸汽出口14，其中进水口13与第一腔室11连通，蒸汽出口14与第二腔室12连通，由此，通过在壳体1内设置彼此间隔开的第二腔室12和第一腔室11，同时使得进水口13与第一腔室11直接连通，蒸汽出口14与第二腔室12直接连通，在蒸汽发生器100使用过程中，与第二腔室12连通的蒸汽出口14持续排出蒸汽的同时，可以通过进水口13持续不断地向第一腔室11内加水，避免了现有的锅炉式蒸汽发生器中加水不方便的问题，而且相比现有较大体积的锅炉式蒸汽发生器，本发明中的蒸汽发生器100具有较小的体积，当蒸汽发生器100随蒸汽发生器系统1000安装在家用电器中时，有利于家用电器的小型化。可选地，进水口13可设在与第一腔室11对应的壳体1的顶壁的任意位置处。
加热元件3设在分隔壁2上以对第二腔室12和第一腔室11加热。具体地，将加热元件3设在分隔壁2上可便于加热元件3产生的热能首先快速传导至第二腔室12和第一腔室11中的流体上，使得液体状流体受热后快速汽化为蒸汽状流体而提高电能利用率，同时还可避免加热元件3局部过热。例如，加热元件3可以嵌入分隔壁2之中、分隔壁2的内壁面或外壁面上以便于对第二腔室12和第一腔室11加热。可选地，加热元件3可以基于浇注工艺一体成型嵌设在分隔壁2内、或固定设置分隔壁2的内壁面或外壁面上以便对第二腔室12和第一腔室11加热。当然，本发明不限于此，加热元件3还可以设在壳体1的其它位置例如设在第二腔室12或第一腔室11内或加热元件3可通过浇注工艺一体成型嵌入壳体1中的任意部位。可以理解的是，设置在壳体1内的分隔壁2具有导热的作用。
具体而言，从进水口13进入到第一腔室11内的水在加热元件3的加热下汽化。当位于第一腔室11内的水蒸汽或水滴和蒸汽混合流体通过连通槽21进入到第二腔室12内时，加热元件3同时作用于第二腔室12，将进入到第二腔室12中的水蒸汽烘干成干燥的蒸汽并从蒸汽出口14排出。其中，需要说明的是，在加热元件3的加热过程中，可以持续不断地向第一腔室11加入水。由此，通过将加热元件3设在分隔壁2上以使加热元件3对第二腔室12和第一腔室11加热，且持续不断地通过进水口13向第一腔室11内加入水以便于蒸汽从蒸汽出口14处持续排出，不但提高了加热元件3的利用率，而且缩短了蒸汽发生器100的预热时间，可以使蒸汽发生器100持续产生出温度高、干度大的蒸汽。
进一步地，如图20所示，分隔壁2形成为板状以间隔第一腔室11和第二腔室12， 并使第一腔室11和第二腔室12在左右方向上并排设置。当然，本发明不限于此，分隔壁2形成为环状以使第一腔室11环绕第二腔室12。例如，分隔壁2形成圆环形或方环形。
具体地，如图1和图3、图5-图7所示，壳体1包括底座15和用于密封底座15的盖体16，其中，进水口13和蒸汽出口14均设在盖体16上。
进一步地，分隔壁2设在底座15内以限定出第一腔室11和第二腔室12，以便于底座15内的加热元件3和分隔壁2等的设置。当然，本发明不限于此，进水口13和蒸汽出口14还可以设在壳体1的其它可实施的位置，例如进水口13和蒸汽出口14设在底座15上，或者进水口13和蒸汽出口14分别设置于底座15和盖体16等其他可实现上述等同效果的布局位置。
可选地，盖体16与底座15通过紧固件例如螺栓密封连接。进一步可选地，如图6所示，盖体16的底壁上设有凸筋162，分隔壁2的顶壁上设有大体环形的凹槽22，当盖体16盖在底座15上时，凸筋162与凹槽22配合，同时盖体16和底座15进一步通过紧固件连接，从而进一步提高了盖体16与底座15之间连接的密封性。
可以理解的是，壳体1的顶壁为盖体16，壳体1的侧壁为底座15的侧壁，壳体1的底壁为底座15的底壁。
在本发明的一些实施例中，流体通道包括流体子通道，第一腔室和第二腔室之间限定出至少一条流体子通道，在至少一条流体子通道中设置阻隔壁以阻隔流体的流向，且阻隔壁邻近连通槽设置。进一步地，第一腔室11内设有阻隔壁5以阻隔第一腔室11内流体的流向，且阻隔壁5邻近连通槽21设置，由此，第一腔室为流体子通道以引导蒸汽的流通，简单可靠。阻隔壁5设在第一腔室11内以将第一腔室11构造成C形形状。例如，当蒸汽发生器100的壳体1采用方体、圆柱体、球体或椭球体等大致的规则体时，阻隔壁5设在第一腔室11内以将第一腔室11的横截面构造成大致C形形状。若蒸汽发生器100的壳体1设计成不规则体状时，阻隔壁5设在第一腔室11内以将第一腔室11的横截面构造成大致等同功能的C形形状。
可选地，阻隔壁5可以与壳体1的侧壁一体成型。具体地，阻隔壁5的四个端壁分别与壳体1、分隔壁2连接且一体成型设置。例如，壳体1的侧壁的一部分朝向壳体1的中心凹入第一腔室11内以限定出阻隔壁5。当然，本发明不限于此，阻隔壁5与壳体1还可以是两个独立成型的结构，例如，阻隔壁5焊接在第一腔室11内。
如图5和图18所示，阻隔壁5包括第一端壁51、第二端壁52、第三端壁53和第四端壁54。其中，第一端壁51与壳体1的底部(底座15的底部)一体连接，第二端壁52与壳体1的侧壁(底座15的侧壁)一体连接，第三端壁53与分隔壁2的外侧壁一体连接，第四端壁54为阻隔壁5的顶壁，第四端壁54上形成有与分隔壁2顶部的上述凹槽22连通的密封槽55，壳体1的内顶壁(盖体16的底壁)上形成有与上述凸筋162连接的凸条163，当盖体16盖住底座15时，凸筋162配合在凹槽22内，凸条163嵌入密封槽55内，从而使得阻隔壁5阻隔第一腔室11内的流体例如水蒸汽的流向。
进一步地，加热元件3的电气接线端31嵌入阻隔壁5中且通过与阻隔壁5对应的壳体1的侧壁上的穿孔外露。具体而言，由于阻隔壁5与壳体1和分隔壁2一体成型，设在分隔壁2上的加热元件3的电气接线端31嵌入设置阻隔壁5，且在阻隔壁5对应位置的壳体1侧壁开设穿孔，电气接线端31穿过穿孔外露并用于电连接。由此，加热元件3的接线端巧妙嵌入阻隔壁5中，不但结构简单，而且避免了壳体1内复杂的电线布局。
可选地，壳体1和形成于壳体1内的分隔壁2、阻隔壁5均可以为铸铝件。
进一步地，进水口13位于阻隔壁5的背离连通槽21的一侧，也就是说，进水口13和连通槽21分别位于阻隔壁5的两侧。由此，如图15所示，从进水口13流入第一腔室11内的水在加热元件3的加热作用下汽化成干燥度小的水蒸汽，由于阻隔壁5作用使得水蒸汽沿着第一腔室11且环绕分隔壁2的外周壁的一周到达连通槽21，并通过连通槽21进入到第二腔室12内，当水蒸汽进入第二腔室12后再次被加热和烘干，进一步将水蒸汽转化为干燥的蒸汽从蒸汽出口14排出。在此过程中，增加了水蒸汽与分隔壁2内外表面及壳体1内表面的接触面积，避免设在分隔壁2上的加热元件3出现局部过热的现象，有利于提高分隔壁2和加热元件3的使用寿命，且提高了加热元件3的加热效率，同时进一步减少了蒸汽发生器100的预热时间，还有利于提高蒸汽的干燥度。
具体地，蒸汽发生器100包括与进水口13连通的第一进水管61，且第一进水管61的出水端伸入第一腔室11内。例如，如图15所示，第一进水管61的出水端向下伸入第一腔室11内。由此，第一进水管61的出水端与连通槽21分别位于阻隔壁5的两侧，从第一进水管61的出水端流出的水在第一腔室11内流通，同时经过加热元件3加热变成干度较小的水蒸汽需要绕分隔壁2的一周才能通过连通槽21进入到第二腔室12内。在此过程中，增加了水蒸汽与分隔壁2内外表面及壳体1内表面的接触面积，避免设在分隔壁2上的加热元件3出现局部过热的现象，有利于提高分隔壁2和加热元件3的使用寿命，且提高了加热元件3的加热效率，同时进一步减少了蒸汽发生器100的预热时间，还有利于提高蒸汽的干燥度。
在本发明的另一些实施例中，进水口13和连通槽21位于阻隔壁5的相同的一侧。
具体地，如图8和图11-图12所示，蒸汽发生器100包括与进水口13连通的第二进水管62，第二进水管62的自由端从阻隔壁5的靠近连通槽21的一侧环绕分隔壁2的周向方向延伸至阻隔壁5的另一侧。由此，从第二进水管62进入到第一腔室11内的水在加热元件3的加热下变成水蒸汽后，至少部分水蒸汽在第一腔室11内需要绕分隔壁2的周向方向的一周才能通过连通槽21进入到第二腔室12内，在此过程中，增加了水蒸汽与分隔壁2内外表面及壳体1内表面的接触面积，避免设在分隔壁2上的加热元件3出现局部过热的现象，有利于提高分隔壁2和加热元件3的使用寿命，且提高了加热元件3的加热效率，同时进一步减少了蒸汽发生器100的预热时间，还有利于提高蒸汽的干燥度。
当然，本发明不限于此，进水管还可以形成为其它形状，例如，进水管的进水端与 进水口13连通，进水管的另一端多次环绕分隔壁2的周向方向设置。或者，进水管的另一端还可以螺旋缠绕在分隔壁2的周向方向上。
可选地，如图8所示，第二进水管62上具有多个间隔设置的第一出水孔621，由此，从多个第一出水孔621流出的水可喷射在分隔壁2的外周壁上，从而在分隔壁2的外周壁上形成水流或水膜，且水流或水膜沿分隔壁2的外周壁向下流动，从而使得液态水与加热元件3之间充分换热，而且从第二进水管62的远离连通槽21的第一出水孔621喷出的水产生的水蒸汽需要绕分隔壁2的外周壁的一周才能通过连通槽21进入到第二腔室12内，从而有利于提高加热元件3的加热效率，减少蒸汽发生器100的预热时间，同时也可以避免加热元件3出现局部过热的现象，有利于延长加热元件3的使用寿命。可选地，多个第一出水孔621均匀间隔地设在第二进水管62的靠近分隔壁2的一侧，从而便于第一出水孔621流出的水尽可能多地喷射在分隔壁2上以便于加热元件3的加热。可以理解的是，当第二进水管62上的多个第一出水孔621非常小且喷射出雾状小水滴时，可使上述优点进一步得到优化。
在本发明的另一些具体示例中，第二进水管62的自由端为出水端，由此，第二进水管62的出水端和连通槽21通过阻隔壁5间隔开，从第二进水管62的出水端流出的水在加热元件3的加热下变成水蒸汽后，需要绕分隔壁2的外周壁的一周才能通过连通槽21进入到第二腔室12内，在此过程中，增加了水蒸汽与分隔壁2内外表面及壳体1内表面的接触面积，避免设在分隔壁2上的加热元件3出现局部过热的现象，有利于提高分隔壁2和加热元件3的使用寿命，且提高了加热元件3的加热效率，同时进一步减少了蒸汽发生器100的预热时间，还有利于提高蒸汽的干燥度。
具体地，如图8和图11所示，第二进水管62包括C形管段622和垂直于C形管段622且与进水口13连接的垂直管段623，结构简单。进一步地，第二进水管62环绕在分隔壁2的上部外壁面的外侧，由此，从第二进水管62排出的至少一部分水可喷洒在分隔壁2的上部外壁面的外侧，并沿着分隔壁2向下流动，从而有利于与加热元件3充分换热，提高加热元件3的加热效率，同时也在一定程度上避免了加热元件3出现局部过热的现象。当然，本发明不限于此，第二进水管62还可以环绕分隔壁2高度方向上的其它位置，例如第二进水管62环绕在分隔壁2的中部外壁面的外侧或下部外壁面的外侧。
在本发明的另一些具体示例中，蒸汽发生器100还包括与进水口13连通的第三进水管(图未示出)，第三进水管的出水端穿过阻隔壁5伸入到第一腔室11的远离连通槽21的一侧，从而使得第三进水管的出水端和连通槽21分别位于阻隔壁5的两侧，以便于第三进水管的出水端流出的水进入到第一腔室11内且在加热元件3的加热下变成水蒸汽后，至少部分水蒸汽在第一腔室11内需要绕分隔壁2的周向方向的一周才能通过连通槽21进入到第二腔室12内，在此过程中，增加了水蒸汽与分隔壁2内外表面及壳体1内表面的接触面积，避免设在分隔壁2上的加热元件3出现局部过热的现象，有利于提高分隔壁2和加热元件3的使用寿命，且提高了加热元件3的加热效率，同时进 一步减少了蒸汽发生器100的预热时间，还有利于提高蒸汽的干燥度。
进一步地，蒸汽发生器100还包括与进水口13连通的第四进水管(图未示出)，第四进水管的自由端封闭且第四进水管穿过阻隔壁5，且沿分隔壁2的周向方向延伸，在第四进水管的长度方向上形成有多个间隔设置的第二出水孔(图未示出)，由此，从多个第二出水孔流出的水可喷射在分隔壁2的外周壁上，从而在分隔壁2的外周壁上形成水流或水膜，且水流或水膜沿分隔壁2的外周壁向下流动，从而使得液态水与加热元件3充分换热，而且从第四进水管的远离连通槽21的第二出水孔喷出的水产生的水蒸汽需要绕分隔壁2的外周壁的一周才能通过连通槽21进入到第二腔室12内，从而有利于提高加热元件3的加热效率，减少蒸汽发生器100的预热时间，同时也可以避免加热元件3出现局部过热的现象，有利于延长加热元件3的使用寿命。可选地，多个第二出水孔均匀间隔地设在第四进水管的靠近分隔壁2的一侧，从而便于第二出水孔流出的水尽可能多地喷射在分隔壁2上。可以理解的是，当第四进水管上的多个第二出水孔非常小且喷射出雾状小水滴时，可使上述优点进一步得到优化。
根据本发明的一些实施例，第一腔室11内形成的水蒸汽通过连通槽21进入第二腔室12内后形成蒸汽旋风气流。具体地，连通槽21的延伸方向与第二腔室12的内周壁面相切以形成在第一腔室11内的水蒸汽切向地进入第二腔室12内，从而形成蒸汽旋风气流。
具体而言，通过上述连通槽21设置方式，在加热元件3的加热下，第一腔室11内的水蒸汽通过连通槽21切向进入到第二腔室12，并在第二腔室12内形成旋风气流，使得水蒸汽与第二腔室12的内壁面接触，同时旋风气流会形成类似旋风分离器的效果，使得水蒸汽中的液态水甩向第二腔室12的内壁上被迅速汽化或沿其向下流动，且在加热元件3的加热下进一步形成蒸汽。由此，一方面不但可以在一定程度上避免第二腔室12的内壁面出现局部过热的现象，有利于提高加热元件3的使用寿命，同时还可以提高加热元件3的加热效率，缩短蒸汽发生器100的预热时间，并提高蒸汽出口14蒸汽的温度和干燥度，另一方面水蒸汽中的水垢被甩向第二腔室12的内壁面，并附着在第二腔室12的内壁面上，从而在一定程度上减少水垢从蒸汽出口14排出可能性，避免水垢堵塞蒸汽出口14带来的危害。
可选地，如图6、图8、图11-图15所示，连通槽21形成于分隔壁2的上部且邻近壳体1的顶壁(例如邻近盖体16)。由此，有利于被加热元件3加热后形成的水蒸汽向上移动并从第一腔室11进入到与第二腔室12内。
根据本发明的一些进一步实施例，如图3和图4所示，蒸汽出口14处设有增压开关装置4以使壳体1的蒸汽从蒸汽出口14单向排出。设置在蒸汽出口14处的增压开关装置4可以使壳体1内的蒸汽从蒸汽出口14匀速高压排出。具体而言，当加热元件3加热时，壳体1内的水不断汽化成水蒸汽，壳体1内压力不断地增大，当壳体1内的压力大于设定值时，增压开关装置4打开以便于干燥的蒸汽从蒸汽出口14高压迅速的排出。当壳体1内的压力减少至等于或小于设定值时，增压开关装置4关闭直至壳体1 内的压力再一次达到设定值时，增压开关装置4才打开。由此，设置在蒸汽出口14处的增压开关装置4可使得壳体1内始终保持一定压力，这不但有利于进一步提高壳体1内蒸汽的饱和温度，以提高蒸汽出口14处的蒸汽的温度和干燥度，而且还有利于提高水蒸汽的排出速度，保证水蒸汽从蒸汽出口14处持续排出，避免了蒸汽出口14的蒸汽持续衰减的现象。其中，可以理解的是，壳体1内的压力设定值与增压开关装置4的重量有关，因此，可通过调整增压开关装置44的重量以调节壳体1内的压力设定值。
更进一步地，如图3-图4所示，盖体16向下延伸出突出柱161，突出柱161内限定出底部具有通道口1611的单向通道1612，单向通道1612的上端与蒸汽出口14连通，增压开关装置4设在单向通道1612内，由此，不但结构简单，而且盖体16向下延伸出的突出柱161增大了第二腔室12内的表面积，以便于水垢附着在突出柱161的外表面上，在一定程度上避免因水垢过多而导致的蒸汽发生器100的损坏，延长了蒸汽发生器100的使用寿命。当然，本发明不限于此，盖体16上也可以不设置突出柱161。
可选地，突出柱161的横截面形成为圆环形，且突出柱161在远离盖体16的方向上其横截面积越来越小。
在本发明的一些进一步具体示例中，如图3所示，增压开关装置4包括密封件41和弹性元件42。其中，密封件41在弹性元件42的弹性形变作用力下密封通道口1611。例如，密封件41位于单向通道1612内且下端封闭通道口1611，弹性元件42止抵在蒸汽出口14和密封件41之间以便于密封件41根据弹性元件42的弹性形变作用力密封通道口1611。由此，当加热元件3加热时，壳体1内的压力不断地增大，当壳体1内的压力大于设定值时，壳体1内的蒸汽推动密封件41向上移动以使得弹性元件42处于压缩状态，从而便于水蒸汽通过通道口1611并进一步经过单向通道1612，并最终从蒸汽出口14排出，当壳体1内的压力小于或等于设定值时，弹性元件42将密封件41抵压在通道口1611处以封闭通道口1611。
这一方面不但有利于进一步提高壳体1内水蒸汽的饱和温度，以提高蒸汽出口14处的蒸汽的温度和干燥度，而且还有利于提高水蒸汽的排出速度，保证水蒸汽从蒸汽出口14处持续排出，避免了蒸汽持续衰减的现象；另一方面设置弹性元件42和密封件41还可以将水蒸汽中的水垢和液态水阻挡在壳体1内，不但可避免因水垢随水蒸汽排出到与蒸汽出口14相连的管路中而造成的管路的堵塞，而且还进一步提高了从蒸汽出口14排出的水蒸汽的干燥度。其中，可以理解的是，壳体1内的压力的设定值与弹性元件42和密封件41的重量、弹性元件42的弹性系数和形变长度有关，因此，可以通过调整弹性元件42和密封件41的重量、弹性元件42的弹性系数和形变长度，从而调整壳体1内的压力的设定值。
可选地，密封件41可以是球体、圆柱体、圆锥体或长方体等形状，当然，可以理解的是，密封件41还可以具有其它形状，只要能封闭和打开通道口1611即可。可选地，密封件41可以是活塞，弹性元件42为弹簧。
当然，本发明不限于此，在本发明的另一些实施例中，增压开关装置4包括设在蒸 汽出口14处的单向阀片。例如，增压开关装置44可以是单向阀片以使得壳体1内的蒸汽从蒸汽出口14处单向排出，结构简单。
在本发明的一些实施例中，加热元件3可以对第二腔室12和第一腔室11同时加热，也就是说，在加热元件3的整个工作过程中，加热元件3始终对第二腔室12和第一腔室11同时加热。当然，本发明不限于此，在加热元件3刚开始工作时，加热元件3对第二腔室12和第一腔室11不同时加热，一段时间后，加热元件3对第二腔室12和第一腔室11同时加热。例如，当加热元件3刚开始工作的一段时间(例如5S)内，加热元件3首先加热第一腔室11，以便于第一腔室11内的水可以在加热元件3的加热下尽快地变成水蒸汽进入到第二腔室12，一段时间(例如5S)后，加热元件3同时加热第二腔室12和第一腔室11，以便于加热元件3继续加热第一腔室11内的水以及对进入到第二腔室12内的水蒸汽继续加热，从而提高从蒸汽出口14排出的水蒸汽的干燥度。
根据本发明的一些实施例，如图6所示，蒸汽发生器100还包括至少一个增益结构7。增益结构7容纳在第二腔室12和/或第一腔室11内，例如增益结构7可以只容纳在第二腔室12内，或者增益结构7可以只容纳在第一腔室11内，或者增益结构7包括多个且分别容纳在第二腔室12和第一腔室11内。由此，通过在第二腔室12和/或第一腔室11内设置增益结构7，不但有利于增大第二腔室12和/或第一腔室11内的表面积，以便于更多的水垢附着在增益结构7上，从而在一定程度上提高蒸汽发生器100的使用寿命，而且还有利于阻挡水垢随水蒸汽的流动，以减少水垢从蒸汽出口14流出的可能性。
增益结构7与分隔壁2接触，由此，可便于加热元件3产生的热量传递给增益结构7，以便于增益结构7与流经增益结构7的水蒸汽和/或水之间的换热，从而增大了换热面积，有利于提高加热元件3的热量的利用率，在一定程度上减少加热元件3的工作时间，延长加热元件3的寿命并间接延长蒸汽发生器100的使用寿命，同时还有利于提高水蒸汽的温度和干燥度。
优选地，增益结构7与第一腔室11的内侧壁(即壳体1的内侧壁/底座15的内侧壁)不接触，从而在一定程度上避免因增益结构7与第一腔室11的内侧壁接触而向蒸汽发生器100的外部辐射热量。当然，本发明不限于此，增益结构7可以同时连接在分隔壁2的外侧壁和第一腔室11的内侧壁上。
进一步地，增益结构7连接在分隔壁2上，例如增益结构7与分隔壁2为一体成型件，结构简单。当然，本发明不限于此，增益结构7还可设在壳体1的顶壁(例如盖体16)上，且增益结构7向下伸入第二腔室12和/或第一腔室11内，并与分隔壁2接触。
具体地，增益结构7的下端与壳体1的底壁之间间隔开，从而便于壳体1的底部(盖体16的底部)的水的流通以及水垢的流动，避免因增益结构7的下端与壳体1的底壁接触而使得水垢积聚在该位置处。可选地，增益结构7的横截面形成为大体“十”字形状，且增益结构7的横截面积在从上到下的方向上逐渐减小。当然，本发明不限于，增益结构7还可以形成为其它形状，例如上下延伸的板状。
可选地，增益结构7包括多个，且多个增益结构7绕分隔壁2的周向设置。具体地，多个增益结构7绕分隔壁2的周向间隔设置。例如，增益结构7包括四个，四个增益结构7容纳在第一腔室11内并在分隔壁2的周向上均匀间隔设置。可以理解的是，多个增益结构7之间的尺寸和形状可以是相同的，也可以是不同的。
根据本发明的一些实施例，蒸汽发生器100还包括至少一个容垢结构，容垢结构设置在第二腔室12和/或第一腔室11内。例如，容垢结构只设在第二腔室12内、或容垢结构只设在第一腔室11内、或容垢结构为多个且分别设在第一腔室11和第二腔室12内。由此，通过设置容垢结构，不但有利于增大第二腔室12和/或第一腔室11内的表面积，以便于更多的水垢附着在容垢结构上，从而在一定程度上提高蒸汽发生器100的使用寿命，而且还有利于阻挡水垢随水蒸汽的流动，以减少水垢从蒸汽出口14流出的可能性。
进一步地，参照图10-图18图所示，容垢结构为网状格栅81、条状格栅82、和柱状格栅83中的至少一种。
例如，如图13和图15所示，容垢结构为网状格栅81，由此不但有利于增大壳体1内的表面积，以便于更多的水垢附着在网状格栅81上，在一定程度上提高蒸汽发生器100的使用寿命，而且网状格栅81上的网孔还可阻挡水垢随水蒸汽的流动，以减少水垢从蒸汽出口14流出的可能性，同时网状格栅81的设置还避免了蒸汽出口14处过滤网的设置，从而避免了现有技术中因在蒸汽出口14处设置过滤网而使得水垢附着在过滤网上造成的蒸汽出口14堵塞以及因过滤网上的水垢在水蒸汽的冲击下流动到与蒸汽出口14连通的外部管路上而造成的管路的堵塞等问题。
需要说明的是，网状格栅81的网孔可以形成为圆形孔、或六边形孔、或其它形状的孔，本发明对此不作限定。可以理解的是，网状格栅81上的多个网孔的大小可以是相同的，当然也可以是不同的。可选地，网状格栅81上的网孔的大小可调。例如，可以根据每个地区的水质和工况的不同，调节网状格栅81上的网孔的大小。
可选地，网状格栅81可以包括多个，且多个网状格栅81在所处的腔室(即第一腔室11和/或第二腔室12)内间隔设置。例如如图13和图15所示，三个网状格栅81间隔设在第一腔室11内，从而更大程度地增加水垢的附着面积，而且还可以更大程度地阻挡水垢随水蒸汽的流动以减少水垢从蒸汽出口14流出的可能性。
例如，如图17-图18所示，容垢结构为条状格栅82，由此不但有利于增大壳体1内的表面积，以便于更多的水垢附着在条状格栅82上，在一定程度上提高蒸汽发生器100的使用寿命，而且还可阻挡水垢随水蒸汽的流动，以减少水垢从蒸汽出口14流出的可能性，同时条状格栅82的设置还避免了蒸汽出口14处过滤网的设置，从而避免了现有技术中因在蒸汽出口14处设置过滤网而使得水垢附着在过滤网上造成的蒸汽出口14堵塞以及因过滤网上的水垢在水蒸汽的冲击下流动到与蒸汽出口14连通的外部管路上而造成的外部管路的堵塞等问题。另外，由于条状格栅82的每个格栅孔在条状格栅82的高度方向上延伸，因此当条状格栅82阻挡住水垢后，水垢会在重力作用下向下沉 积在条状格栅82的底部，从而减少条状格栅82被水垢堵塞的概率，保证条状格栅82上水蒸汽的过流面积，进而使得水蒸汽在流经条状格栅82时，其流速不至于过大，避免水垢随水蒸汽一起冲出蒸汽出口14。
可以理解的是，每个条状格栅82上格栅孔的大小和数目可调，例如，可以根据每个地区的水质和工况的不同，调节格栅孔的大小。
可选地，条状格栅82可以包括多个，且多个条状格栅82在所处的腔室(即第一腔室11和/或第二腔室12)内间隔设置。例如如图18所示，三个条状格栅82间隔设在第一腔室11内，从而更大程度地增加水垢的可附着面积，而且还可以更大程度地阻挡水垢随水蒸汽的流动以减少水垢从蒸汽出口14流出的可能性。
进一步地，网状格栅81和/或条状格栅82设在第一腔室11内，网状格栅81的两端和/或条状格栅82的两端均分别与第一腔室11的内侧壁和分隔壁2的外侧壁连接。例如，当第一腔室11内只设置网状格栅81时，网状格栅81的两端分别与第一腔室11的内侧壁和分隔壁2的外侧壁相连，当第一腔室11内只设置条状格栅82时，条状格栅82的两端分别与第一腔室11的内侧壁和分隔壁2的外侧壁相连，当第一腔室11内同时设有条状格栅82和网状格栅81时，条状格栅82和网状格栅81各自的两端均分别与第一腔室11的内侧壁和分隔壁2的外侧壁连接。由此，可使得流经第一腔室11内的水蒸汽必须经过网状格栅81和/或条状格栅82才能继续向前流动，从而可靠地阻挡水垢随水蒸汽的流动。
具体地，参照图14，第一腔室11的内侧壁和分隔壁2的外侧壁分别形成有第一卡槽84和第二卡槽85，网状格栅81的两端和/或条状格栅82的两端均分别卡设在第一卡槽84和第二卡槽85内，由此，可将网状格栅81和/或条状格栅82可靠地固定在第一腔室11内，避免因网状格栅81和/或条状格栅82固定不牢而导致的网状格栅81和/或条状格栅82在第一腔室11内移动或晃动以影响网状格栅81和/或条状格栅82的使用效果。
例如，在图14的具体示例中，第一卡扣槽和第二卡槽85均在壳体1的高度方向(即底座15的高度方向)上延伸，从而将条状格栅82和/或网状格栅81可靠地固定在第一腔室11和分隔壁2之间。具体地，第一卡槽84是由两个凸出第一腔室11的内侧壁且彼此间隔开的第一突出筋限定出。第二卡槽85是由两个凸出分隔壁2的外侧壁且彼此间隔开的第二突出筋限定出，结构简单可靠。可选地，第二突出筋与分隔壁2之间以及第一突出筋与壳体1之间可以为一体成型件。
在本发明的更进一步实施例中，如图10-图12所示，柱状格栅83位于第一腔室11和/或第二腔室12内，且柱状格栅83包括大体沿径向延伸的多个延伸条831。由此不但有利于增大第一腔室11和/或第二腔室12内的表面积，以便于更多的水垢附着在延伸条831上，还可在一定程度上提高蒸汽发生器100的使用寿命，而且延伸条831的设置还可在一定程度上阻挡水垢随水蒸汽的流动，以减少水垢从蒸汽出口14流出的可能性。
具体地，柱状格栅83包括沿壳体1的高度方向分布的多圈延伸条831，每圈延伸条 831中包括沿周向分布(例如，沿分隔壁2的周向分布)的多个，从而可以更大程度体增加第一腔室11和/或第二腔室12内的表面积，以便于容纳更多的水垢，同时还有利于较大程度地阻挡水垢随水蒸汽的流动，以提高蒸汽发生器100的使用寿命。进一步地，相邻的两圈延伸条831在高度方向上彼此交错开，例如，在壳体1高度方向(例如底座15的高度方向)上分布的多圈延伸条831彼此错开。由此，在水垢随水蒸汽流动时，可更大程度地增加水垢碰到延伸条831的概率，从而阻挡水垢随水蒸汽的流动，以进一步避免水垢随水蒸汽冲出蒸汽出口14而导致的蒸汽出口14堵塞或与蒸汽出口14相连的管路的堵塞，从而提高蒸汽发生器100的使用寿命。
可选地，延伸条831从分隔壁2的外侧壁和/或内侧壁上延伸出，例如，当柱状格栅83设在第二腔室12内时，延伸条831则从分隔壁2的内侧壁向第二腔室12内延伸，当柱状格栅83设在第一腔室11内时，延伸条831则从分隔壁2的外侧壁向第一腔室11内延伸，当柱状格栅83同时设在第一腔室11和第二腔室12内时，多个延伸条831从分隔壁2的外侧壁和内侧壁分别向第一腔室11内延伸和向第二腔室12内延伸。
在本发明的一些实施例中，如图3-图4所示，加热元件3呈螺旋状环绕分隔壁2的周向并设在分隔壁2内。例如，加热元件3为一个且呈螺旋状环绕分隔壁2的周向并设在分隔壁2内，从而增加加热元件3与分隔壁2的接触面积，以使得加热元件3通过分隔壁2更多地向第二腔室12和第一腔室11内辐射热量，从而缩短蒸汽发生器100的预热时间，提高水蒸汽的温度和干燥度。当然，本发明不限于此，加热元件3还可以包括多个，多个加热元件3在分隔壁2的上下方向上间隔分布。
根据本发明的一些实施例，蒸汽发生器100还包括至少一个温控器9，温控器9根据壳体1的温度控制加热元件3的工作和断开。
如图1、图5-图6所示，温控器9设在壳体1的外表面上。例如，温控器9设在壳体1的外顶壁(即盖体16的外顶壁)、壳体1的外底壁(即底座15的外底壁)或壳体1的外侧壁面(即底座15的外侧壁)上。由此，通过将温控器9设置壳体1的外表面上，不但方便了对温控器9的安装、维修以及更换，而且优化了温控器9的工作环境，温控器9无需在苛刻环境下工作，从而扩大了温控器9的可选择范围例如选择低成本的温控器9，有利于降低蒸汽发生器100的成本。
可选地，在其中一些示例中，温控器9为电子式温控器9，且连接有第一温度传感器，温控器9设在壳体1的外表面上以使第一温度传感器检测壳体1的温度，温控器9根据第一温度传感器检测到的温度以控制加热元件3的工作和断开。例如，当温控器9的第一温度传感器检测到壳体1的温度高于预定的最高温度值时，温控器9控制加热元件3停止加热，当第一温度传感器检测到壳体1的温度低于预定的最低温度值时，温控器9控制加热元件3加热，从而保证加热元件3使用的可靠性，提高蒸汽发生器100使用的安全性，避免因加热元件3持续加热使得温度过高而导致的蒸汽发生器100被烧坏及其他安全隐患。
可选地，温控器9可以包括多个，多个温控器9之间并联连接，多个温控器9可以 分别设在壳体1的外表面的不同位置处以检测壳体1不同位置处的温度。例如，当其中一个温控器9的第一温度传感器检测到该温控器9所在的壳体1的对应位置处的温度高于预定的最高温度值时，该温控器9可控制加热元件3停止加热，停止加热一段时间后，若另一个温控器9的第一温度传感器检测到该温控器9所处的壳体1的对应位置处的温度低于预定的最低温度值时，该温控器9可控制加热元件3开始加热。
当然，在另一些示例中，温控器9为机械式温控器9且设在壳体1上，该温控器9可以根据壳体1的温度断开或复位，从而控制加热元件3的工作和断开。
在本发明的一些实施例中，如图1、图6所示，蒸汽发生器100还包括至少一个熔断器10，熔断器10设在壳体1的外表面上。例如，熔断器10设在壳体1的外顶壁(即盖体16的外顶壁)、壳体1的外底壁(即底座15的外底壁)或壳体1的外侧壁面(即底座15的外侧壁)上。从而方便了对熔断器10的安装、维修和更换。
每个熔断器10包括第二温度传感器，熔断器10设在壳体1的外表面上以使第二温度传感器检测壳体1的温度，当第二温度传感器检测到壳体1的温度高于预定值时，熔断器10控制加热元件3断电。具体而言，当熔断器10的第二温度传感器检测到壳体1的温度异常高(例如在蒸汽发生器100异常工作且温控器9失效时)且高于预定值时，熔断器10熔断以使加热元件3断电以停止加热元件3加热，从而提高蒸汽发生器100使用的安全性。
可选地，熔断器10可以包括多个，多个熔断器10之间并联连接，且多个熔断器10可设在壳体1外表面的不同位置处。
进一步地，温控器9设在壳体1的外侧壁面上，例如温控器9设在底座15的外侧壁面上。可选地，熔断器10和温控器9同时设在底座15的外侧壁面上。
在本发明的一些实施例中，如图1-图18所示，壳体1大致呈方体状、球体状、椭球体状或圆柱体状，结构简单。
可选地，蒸汽出口14与第二腔室12的中心对应设置。当然，本发明不限于此，蒸汽出口14还可设在与第二腔室12对应的壳体1的顶壁(即盖体16)的其他位置处，只要便于第二腔室12内的水蒸汽排出即可。
可选地，分隔壁2与壳体1的中心线同线，也就是说第二腔室12和第一腔室11的中心线同线，由此，不但便于水蒸汽顺畅地流过第一腔室11，而且还可以便于加热元件3均匀加热第一腔室11内的水蒸汽。当然，可以理解的是，第二腔室12和第一腔室11的中心线也可以不同线。
如图19所示，根据本发明实施例的蒸汽发生器系统1000，包括上述的蒸汽发生器100、水箱200、水软化装置400和水泵300。可选地，水泵300为容积泵或叶片泵。
具体地，如图19所示，水泵300连接在水箱200和进水口13之间，且当蒸汽发生器100工作时，水泵300将水箱200内的水连续泵入蒸汽发生器100的壳体1内，且加热元件3持续加热。具体地，水泵300的流量为V，当蒸汽发生器100工作时，水泵300将水箱200内的水以20ml/min≤V≤100ml/min的流量连续泵入壳体1内。具体而言， 当蒸汽发生器系统1000工作时，通过使得水泵300将水箱200内的水以20ml/min≤V≤100ml/min的流量连续泵入到壳体1内，以便于壳体1内的水在加热元件3的加热下，迅速汽化成水蒸汽并从蒸汽出口14排出，这一方面不但加水方便，而且还可以节省蒸汽发生器100的预热时间，保证蒸汽出口14源源不断地排出水蒸汽，提高了蒸汽发生器100的工作效率，另一方面避免了在蒸汽发生器100内设置水位传感器以及布线等，从而有利于节约成本，方便了生产工人的装配，同时还提高了蒸汽发生器系统1000的安全性能。需要说明的是，水泵300连续将水箱200内的水以20ml/min≤V≤100ml/min的流量泵入壳体1内，所说的“连续”可以包括持续不停地即不间断地连续，还可以是等时间间隔连续或者不等时间间隔连续三种实施方式。
可选地，加热元件3的功率为P，当1000W≤P≤2500W时，20ml/min≤V≤100ml/min。从而进一步优化加热元件3与水泵300之间的配合度，避免因加热元件3的功率过低、水泵300泵入壳体1内的水太多而导致的壳体1内的水满溢以及因加热元件3的功率过大、水泵300泵入的水太少导而致的加热元件3的干烧等问题的发生，从而进一步提高了蒸汽发生器系统1000使用的安全性。
根据本发明实施例的蒸汽发生器系统1000，通过设置上述的蒸汽发生器100，可方便加水，体积小，有利于实现家用电器的小型化。
根据本发明的一些实施例，蒸汽发生器100工作时，水泵300连续不停地将水箱200内的水泵入壳体1内，加热元件3不停加热。也就是说，只要蒸汽发生器100开始工作，水泵300便不间断地持续将水箱200内的水泵入壳体1内且加热元件3也不间断地持续加热。当然，本发明不限于此，在另一些示例中，当蒸汽发生器系统1000工作时，水泵300可以等时间间隔或者不等时间间隔将水箱200内的水泵入壳体1内预定水量，加热元件3不停加热。例如，水泵300可以每间隔5分钟向壳体1内泵入预定水量，加热元件3持续加热，即便当水泵300向壳体1泵入预定水量后，且停止泵入时，加热元件3始终加热。其中，可以理解的是，水泵300等时间间隔或者不等时间间隔将水箱200内的水泵入壳体1内的时间参数可以依据实际需要进行适应性调整。
在本发明的一些实施例中，水箱200、水泵300和蒸汽发生器100的进水口13连通以形成进水管路，软化水装置400串连在进水管路中。由此，通过将软化水装置400串连在进水管路中以软化进水管路中的水，使得进入到蒸汽发生器100内的水为软化水，从而在蒸汽发生器100的使用过程中，可大幅度地减少蒸汽发生器100内的水垢，同时也无需对蒸汽发生器100进行除垢处理，这不但节约了成本，同时还提高了蒸汽发生器系统1000使用的安全性，延长了蒸汽发生器系统1000的使用寿命。
可选地，如图19所示，软化水装置400设在水箱200内，从而软化水箱200内的水。当然，本发明不限于此，软化水装置400还可以串连在进水管路中的其它位置处例如水泵300和蒸汽发生器100之间。
可选地，软化水装置400为软化树脂或反渗透膜。从而提高对进水管路中的水的软化效果较大程度地去除水中的水垢。
根据本发明实施例的家用电器，包括上述的蒸汽发生器系统1000。
根据本发明实施例的家用电器，通过设置上述的蒸汽发生器系统1000，体积小，有利于实现家用电器的小型化，而且还可方便地通过进水口13向壳体1内加水。
根据本发明的一些实施例，所述家用电器为吸尘器、挂烫机、油烟机、咖啡机、洗衣机、空调或微波炉。
