Abstract

A garment steamer and its power supply circuit, wherein the power supply circuit comprises a power supply module, a water pump control module, a heating wire control module and a controller. The power supply module's input and output ends are respectively connected to an alternating current (AC) mains and the controller. The heating wire control module's two ends are respectively connected to the power supply module and the controller. The water pump control module comprises a water pump, a diode D 4 and a silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) Q 2 , wherein the SCR Q 2 is used for controlling the water pump's power supply circuit. The water pump's two ends are respectively connected to the power supply module and an anode of the diode D 4 . The SCR Q 2 's control electrode is connected to the controller and the SCR Q 2 's cathode is grounded. The garment steamer includes the said power supply circuit.
