Further, the mop head 10 is annular, and the inner side of the mop head 10 is provided with a hollowed out area 13, and the head 21 sprays water vapor toward the hollowed out area 13.

In this embodiment, the mop head 10 has a triangular ring trailer. The rotating groove 111 is located on one side of the mop head 10 such that the water storage tank 20 is rotatably coupled to one side of the mop head 10. The head 21 is located at a bottom end of the water storage tank 20 near the side of the hollow area 13. The direction in which the spray head 21 injects water vapor forms an angle with the longitudinal direction of the water storage tank 20, so that water vapor sprayed by the spray head 21 can be concentrated in the hollowed out region 13, so that the mop head 10 is sufficiently Use water vapor to ensure that water vapor is not lost. Of course, in other embodiments, the mop head 10 may also be provided with a plurality of the hollowed out regions 13, thereby increasing the performance of the mop head 10 utilizing water vapor.

Further, the bottom end of the water storage tank 20 is provided with a boss 27 protruding toward the mop head 10, and the head 21 is fixed to the boss 27. Specifically, the boss 27 has a "nose" shape. The first opening 231 is opened at a bottom end of the boss 27 such that the head 21 is protected and the head 21 is hidden to improve the appearance performance of the steam mop 100. The nozzle 21 is connected to the heating boiler 22 via a pipe. Thereby, the shower head 21 can smoothly obtain water vapor.

Further, the steam mop 100 further includes a steam valve 50 coupled between the heating boiler 22 and the showerhead 21 for opening or closing the transfer of water vapor to the showerhead 21. Specifically, the heating boiler 22 includes an air outlet 221 that is connected to the nozzle 21 by a pipe. The steam valve 50 is disposed at the air outlet 221 to control the air outlet 221 to open or close. Specifically, the steam valve 50 can open or close the air outlet 221 when the user presses the pressure, so that the spray head 21 starts to spray water vapor or stops spraying water vapor, so that the mop head can be turned to as needed. 10 spray water vapor to achieve the effect of saving water vapor.

Further, the handle 40 is disposed away from the end of the mop head 10 with a switch handle 43 that controls the opening or closing of the steam valve 50. Specifically, the switch handle 43 is located at the second end 42 of the handle 40. A connecting rod 44 passing through the water storage tank 20 is connected between the switch handle 43 and the steam valve 50, and the connecting rod 44 is slidably connected to the water storage tank 20 for driving the switch handle 43. The force is transmitted to the steam valve 50. The switch handle 43 transmits a user's pressing force to the link 44 through a link mechanism that passes through the inside of the handle 40 and the third opening 233. The connecting rod 44 slides relative to the water storage tank 20, so that the sliding force of the connecting rod 44 can drive the steam valve 50 to open or close, that is, the connecting rod 44 transmits the pressing force of the user to the steam valve. 50, thereby causing the steam valve 50 to open or close the air outlet 221 .

Further, a rectangular spring 45 is elastically compressed between the connecting rod 44 and the inner side of the water storage tank 20, and the rectangular spring 45 is used to provide a restoring force for the sliding reset of the connecting rod 44. Specifically, the inner side wall of the water storage tank 20 is provided with a baffle 28, and the baffle 28 is provided with a guide post 29. The side wall of the connecting rod 44 is provided with a snap ring 441 sleeved on the guide post 29, the snap ring 441 slides relative to the guide post 29, and the rectangular spring 45 is compressed by the baffle 28 and the Between the snap rings 441. Thus, when the user drives the link 44 against the steam valve 50 through the switch handle 43, the snap ring 441 compresses the rectangular spring 45, and the steam valve 50 is opened. When the user stops applying force to the switch handle 43, the snap ring 441 is reset under the restoring force of the rectangular spring 45, so that the link 44 is reset, thereby facilitating the user to pass the switch handle 43 next time. The link 44 is driven to facilitate opening the steam valve 50 again.

Further, the steam valve 50 includes a valve seat 51 and a valve latch 52 fixed to the heating boiler 22, and the valve latch 52 is slid open or closed with respect to the valve seat 51 to enable the Plus The hot boiler 22 is disconnected or connected to the spray head 21, and a cam 46 is connected between the connecting rod 44 and the valve latch 52. The cam 46 is rotatably coupled to the side wall of the water storage tank 20, and the cam 46 The axis of rotation is perpendicular to the sliding direction of the valve latch 52, which drives the cam 46 to rotate, the side walls of the cam 46 abutting one end of the valve latch 52 to drive the valve latch 52 to slide. When the link 44 abuts against the cam 46, the cam 46 rotates, so that the side wall of the cam 46 can drive the valve latch 52 to slide relative to the valve seat 51, thereby opening the air outlet 221 . When the link 44 is away from the cam 46, the cam 46 is reversely rotated, so that the valve latch 52 is reset, thereby closing the air outlet 221. More specifically, the cam 46 and the inner side wall of the water storage tank 20 are elastically compressed with a torsion spring for providing a restoring force for the rotation and reset of the cam 46. When the link 44 deactivates the abutment force against the cam 46, the cam 46 is reset under the elastic action of the torsion spring, thereby causing the valve latch 52 to be reset. Further, the heating boiler 22 stops supplying water vapor to the shower head 21.

The heating boiler obtains electric energy through the power socket, and heats the water to generate water vapor, and at the same time, the water vapor can be stored in an insulated state, so that the steam mop can be connected when the power socket is not connected to an external power line. Water vapor in the heating boiler can be continuously transmitted to the spray head to maintain the mop head in a water vapor environment, thereby improving the user experience of the steam mop.

Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only for explaining the technical solutions of the present invention, and are not limited thereto; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art understand that they can still Modifications of the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalents of the technical features of the embodiments of the present invention, are not to be construed as a departure from the spirit and scope of the embodiments of the present invention.
