The body 1 also includes an openable top cover 102, which can open and close the cavity 101. Figure 1 , 3 As shown, the lower part of the body 1 has an annular groove 103, and the hose 6 can be coiled around the annular groove 103.

[0037] like Figure 3 , 4 As shown, the body 1 is provided with a hair suction interface 8 that has a fluid input path between it and the vacuum motor 2, and a blower interface 9 that has a blower output path between it and the blower motor 3. Both the hair suction interface 8 and the blower interface 9 are located at the annular groove 103.

[0038] like Figure 2 , 4As shown, the first dust cup 4 is located in the fluid input path, which also includes a first fluid passage 181 and a second fluid passage 182. The first fluid passage 181 connects the first dust cup 4 and the vacuum motor 2, and the second fluid passage 182 connects the first dust cup 4 and the hair suction interface 8. The vacuum motor 2 applies negative pressure at the hair suction interface 8, so that air containing animal hair is transported from the hair suction interface 8 to the first dust cup 4 via the second fluid passage 182. The heating element 5 is arranged in the air blowing output path. The air blown by the blower motor 3 is heated by the heating element 5 and then output from the air blowing interface 9. The hose 6 has a first end 61 and a second end 62. The first end 61 of the hose 6 is configured to engage with the hair suction interface 8, and the second end 62 is configured to engage with the air blowing interface 9.

[0039] like Figure 1 As shown, the body 1 is also equipped with several suction nozzle attachments 10 and several blowing attachments 11. Each suction nozzle attachment 10 is configured to engage with the second end 62, and each blowing attachment 11 is configured to engage with the first end 61. In this embodiment, the several suction nozzle attachments 10 and several blowing attachments 11 are housed in the cavity 101.

[0040] like Figure 9 As shown, the control device 7 is connected to the vacuum motor 2, the blower motor 3 and the heating element 5, and controls the operation of the above components. Under the control of the control device 7, the cleaning machine 100 has a vacuuming mode in which the vacuum motor 2 works, a blower mode in which the blower motor 3 and the heating element 5 work simultaneously, and a self-cleaning operation mode in which the vacuum motor 2, the blower motor 3 and the heating element 5 work simultaneously.

[0041] like Figure 5 As shown, when the cleaning machine 100 is in vacuuming mode, the first end 61 of the hose 6 is connected to the hair suction interface 8, and the second end 62 of the hose 6 is connected to the suction nozzle attachment. The vacuum motor 2 works under the control of the control device 7. The suction nozzle attachment, hose 6, hair suction interface 8, second fluid passage 182, first dust cup 4, first fluid passage 181 and vacuum motor 2 are sequentially fluidly connected, and the cleaning machine 100 performs vacuuming work.

[0042] like Figure 6 As shown, when the cleaning machine 100 is in the blowing mode, the second end 62 of the hose 6 is connected to the blowing interface 9, and the first end 61 of the hose 6 is connected to the blowing accessory. The blowing motor 3 and the heating element 5 work under the control of the control device 7. The blowing motor 3, the heating element 5, the blowing interface 9, the hose 6 and the blowing accessory are in sequential fluid communication, and the cleaning machine 100 performs the blowing operation.

[0043] like Figure 7As shown, when the cleaning machine 100 is in self-cleaning operation mode, the first end 61 of the hose 6 is connected to the hair suction interface 8, and the second end 62 is connected to the blower interface 9. The vacuum motor 2, the blower motor 3 and the heating element 5 work simultaneously under the control of the control device. The blower motor 3, the heating element 5, the blower interface 9, the hose 6, the hair suction interface 8, the second fluid passage 182, the first dust cup 4, the first fluid passage 181 and the vacuum motor 2 are fluidly connected in sequence.

[0044] like Figure 1 , 9 As shown, the cleaning machine 100 also includes a self-cleaning switch 12 and a detection device 13 that are signal-connected to the control device 7. When the self-cleaning switch 12 is activated, the control device 7 controls the cleaning machine 100 to perform a self-cleaning operation mode, and the hot air generated by the blower motor 3 and the heating element 5 is forcibly delivered to the fluid input path via the hose 6.

[0045] like Figure 3 , 7 As shown in Figures 9 and 1, the detection device 13 includes a first detection component 131 and a second detection component 132. The first detection component 131 is disposed at the suction interface 8 and is used to detect whether the first end 61 and the suction interface 8 are engaged. The second detection component 132 is disposed at the blower interface 9 and is used to detect whether the second end 62 and the blower interface 9 are engaged. The control device 7 can only execute the self-cleaning operation mode when the first detection component 131 detects that the first end 61 and the suction interface 8 are engaged, and when the second detection component 132 detects that the second end 62 is engaged with the blower interface 9.

[0046] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the cleaning machine 100 also includes a handheld module 14 and a second dust cup 15 that can be separated from the main body. The handheld module 14 includes a rechargeable battery 16 and a housing 17 with a handle. The self-cleaning switch 12, the rechargeable battery 16 and the vacuum motor 2 are all integrated on the handheld module 14, and the rechargeable battery 16 and the vacuum motor 2 are both mounted on the housing 17. The rechargeable battery 16 is electrically connected to the vacuum motor 2 to provide power to the vacuum motor 2. The handheld module 14 and the second dust cup 15 are independently housed in the cavity 101.

[0047] like Figure 2 , 8As shown, the second dust cup 15 can be attached to the handheld module 14 and is in fluid communication with the vacuum motor 2. An air inlet pipe 151 is provided on the second dust cup 15. When the vacuum motor 2 applies negative pressure inside the second dust cup 15, air containing hair is drawn into the second dust cup 15 through the air inlet pipe 151, the hair is collected inside the second dust cup 15, and the filtered air is output from the vacuum motor 2 to the cleaning machine 100. In this embodiment, the volume of the second dust cup 15 is smaller than the volume of the first dust cup 4.

[0048] The working principle of this application is as follows: When the cleaning machine 100 needs to perform a vacuuming operation, the first end 61 of the hose 6 is connected to the hair suction interface 8, and the second end 62 is connected to the suction nozzle attachment 10. The vacuum motor 2 operates to generate suction force, causing the dust on the surface to be cleaned to be sucked from the suction nozzle attachment 10 into the first dust cup 4. When the cleaning machine 100 needs to perform a blowing operation, the second end 62 of the hose 6 is connected to the blowing interface 9, and the first end 61 of the hose 6 is connected to the blowing attachment 11. The air output by the blowing motor 3 is heated by the heating element 5 and then blown out of the cleaning machine 100 from the blowing attachment 11. When the hose 6 of the cleaning machine 100 needs to be cleaned, the first end 61 of the hose 6 is engaged with the hair suction interface 8, and the second end 62 is engaged with the blower interface 9. The hot air generated by the blower motor 3 and the heating element 5 is forced to be delivered through the hose 6 into the fluid input path. The hot air dries and blows off the damp hair stuck to the inner wall of the hose 6. Under the suction force of the vacuum motor 2 and the blowing force of the blower motor 3, the hair in the hose 6 is delivered into the first dust cup 4. The filtered clean air is discharged from the vacuum motor 2 through the first fluid passage 181 and then discharged from the cleaning machine 100.

[0049] The body 1 of this application is provided with a hair suction port 8 and a blower port 9 that can be connected to the two ends of the hose 6 respectively. Through the fluid communication between the hair suction port 8 and the blower port 9, and the heating element 5 heating the air output from the blower port 9, the damp hair stuck to the inner wall of the hose 6 is dried and can be easily transported into the first dust cup 4, thereby realizing the self-cleaning of the hose 6 and avoiding secondary pollution to the environment caused by hair adsorbed inside the hose 6. The structure is simple and the operation is convenient.
