Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of swimming pool cleaning, in particular to a garbage bin cleaning device and a swimming pool robot. Background Art

[0002] When working, traditional swimming pool robots mostly inhale the sludge-like microorganisms in the water, which are formed after the sedimentation. This sludge is called activated sludge, and its appearance is cotton-like, also known as flocs or velvet or sludge-like flocs. It has good sedimentation properties and sinks to the bottom of the pool and is sucked in by the swimming pool robot for cleaning.

[0003] When cleaning this type of active sludge, if the mesh number of the filter screen of the garbage bin of the swimming pool robot is too small (the smaller the mesh number, the larger the aperture), it is still difficult to collect the active sludge, and the active sludge is easily discharged directly from the aperture; but when the mesh number of the garbage bin filter screen is too large, the cotton-like active sludge adheres to the surface of the filter screen, which easily causes the filter screen to be blocked, thereby affecting the normal operation of the swimming pool robot, and even causing problems such as motor overheating and the swimming pool robot not working. Because the mesh is blocked and the swimming pool robot stops working, the user can only salvage the swimming pool robot, which also causes troubles in people's lives.

[0004] Therefore, how to properly collect active sludge while preventing problems such as filter clogging is an important issue that needs to be urgently addressed in the industry. Utility Model Content

[0050] In order to describe the utility model in detail, the garbage bin cleaning device and the swimming pool robot of the utility model are specifically described below:

[0051] Please combine Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the utility model provides a garbage bin cleaning device, comprising: a bin body 10 and a cleaning mechanism, wherein the bin body 10 encloses a filtering space, and a dirt inlet 111 is provided at the bottom of the bin body 10; the filter screen is arranged on the bin body 10; the cleaning mechanism at least comprises a cleaning roller brush 20 for cleaning the filter screen, and the cleaning roller brush 20 is arranged in the filtering space or outside the bin body 10, and can at least contact the filter screen when working.

[0052] Specifically, see Figure 3The warehouse 10 is used to collect dirt, such as activated sludge, particulate matter, etc., that enters the swimming pool robot. The warehouse 10 includes a base 11 and a warehouse frame 12 disposed on the base 11. A filtering space is formed between the warehouse frame 12 and the base 11. A dirt inlet 111 is disposed on the base 11. When the water flow with dirt is sucked into the swimming pool robot, the water flow will enter the filtering space inside the warehouse 10 from the dirt inlet 111 at the bottom of the warehouse 10, and will be discharged from the filter net on the warehouse 10 (the filter net is located at the hollow part of the warehouse frame 12). The filter net can retain the dirt in the filtering space of the warehouse 10 to ensure the cleanliness of the water quality. However, as the use time increases, the dirt will gradually accumulate on the filter net. If it is not cleaned in time, it may cause the filter net to be blocked, thereby affecting the working efficiency of the swimming pool robot. People can take out the housing 10 from the swimming pool robot regularly. The housing frame 12 is provided with a handle 121, which is convenient for taking out the housing 10, and the base 11 can be flipped open on the housing frame 12 to clean dirt. The filter screen is cleaned by the cleaning roller 20, so that dirt (such as activated sludge) adhering to the filter screen can be removed to prevent the dirt from clogging the filter screen, thereby improving the working efficiency of the swimming pool robot, reducing the frequency of shutdown processing, and extending the use time of the swimming pool robot.

[0053] The cleaning roller brush 20 can operate in different ways to meet different cleaning needs. Usually, the warehouse body 10 is fixed, and the cleaning roller brush 20 can be fixedly arranged outside or inside the warehouse body 10. The cleaning roller brush 20 rotates around its own axis to contact and rub with the surface of the filter to scrub it, thereby scrubbing away the dirt adhering to the filter. This method is suitable for situations where the degree of dirt is light or the filter area is large; or, the cleaning roller brush 20 can rotate around the outside or inside of the warehouse body 10 in the form of a circumferential motion. This movement mode enables the roller brush to contact the filter more comprehensively and scrub it during the rotation process. This method is suitable for situations where the degree of dirt is heavy or the surface shape of the filter is complex. Regardless of which method is used, the cleaning roller brush 20 can effectively remove dirt on the filter to prevent it from clogging the filter. This can not only improve the working efficiency of the swimming pool robot and reduce the time waste caused by downtime processing, but also extend the service life of the swimming pool robot and bring a better user experience to users.

[0054] See also Figure 3 In some embodiments, the chamber body 10 includes a side wall and a top wall, the filter screen is disposed on both the side wall and the top wall, and the cleaning roller brush 20 is disposed close to the side wall and cleans the filter screen on the side wall. Thus, by disposing the cleaning roller brush 20 close to the side wall, it is possible to ensure that the cleaning roller brush 20 contacts the filter screen on the side wall during operation and cleans the filter screen on the side wall.

[0055] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, at least two cleaning roller brushes 20 are provided, and the cleaning roller brushes 20 are arranged in a vertical direction parallel to the bin body 10. In this structure, by providing at least two cleaning roller brushes 20, the cleaning effect of the filter screen of the bin body 10 can be improved. In addition, the layout of at least two cleaning roller brushes 20 enables them to be evenly stressed during operation, reducing the risk of performance degradation or damage of a single roller brush due to excessive pressure; in addition, multiple cleaning roller brushes 20 also help to improve the uniformity of cleaning, ensuring that all parts of the filter screen can be cleaned uniformly.

[0056] Continue reading Figure 1 and Figure 2 In the above embodiment, the height of the cleaning roller brush 20 is greater than or equal to the height of the bin body 10. In this way, the cleaning roller brush 20 can cover a wider area in the vertical direction. When the cleaning roller brush 20 rotates and contacts the filter, it can touch multiple parts of the filter at the same time, thereby increasing the area covered by a single cleaning operation. The increased cleaning area directly improves the cleaning efficiency. Since the cleaning roller brush 20 can clean more of the filter surface each time it rotates, the number of roller brush rotations and time required to complete the entire cleaning process are reduced, which not only speeds up the cleaning speed, but also reduces the wear and maintenance frequency of the equipment.

[0057] See also Figure 2 In some embodiments, the cleaning mechanism further includes a driving member 30, which is arranged at the bottom of the bin body 10, and the output end of the driving member 30 is connected to the cleaning roller brush 20. Specifically, the driving member 30 is arranged at the bottom of the bin body 10, and such a layout not only optimizes the space utilization, but also makes the driving force transmission more direct and efficient. When the driving member 30 is started, the connection between its output end and the cleaning roller brush 20 ensures the smooth transmission of power. The rotation design of the cleaning roller brush 20 around its own axis has the following effects: on the one hand, the cleaning roller brush 20 can contact the surface of the filter more comprehensively during the rotation process, so that the filter can be effectively cleaned; on the other hand, the rotation action of the cleaning roller brush 20 can generate stronger friction and impact force, which helps to loosen and remove stubborn dirt attached to the filter. In addition, due to the precise control of the driving member 30, the rotation speed and direction of the cleaning roller brush 20 can be adjusted as needed to adapt to different filter materials and cleaning requirements.

[0058] Exemplarily, the driving member 30 is a driving motor. Specifically, the driving motor uses the power source of the swimming pool robot itself. The power can be transmitted to the cleaning roller brush 20 through the transmission assembly 40 through the rotational motion of the driving motor. After the cleaning roller brush 20 receives the transmitted power, it will start to rotate. This rotational motion enables the roller brush to effectively contact and clean the target surface. Using a driving motor as the driving member 30 not only provides the power required by the cleaning device, but also realizes the effective transmission and conversion of power through the transmission assembly 40, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the cleaning roller brush 20.

[0059] See also Figure 4 In the above embodiment, the cleaning mechanism further includes a transmission assembly 40, and the output end of the driving member 30 is connected to the cleaning roller brush 20 through the transmission assembly 40. Specifically, the transmission assembly 40 can transmit the power of the driving member 30 to the cleaning roller brush 20 with different transmission ratios and transmission methods (such as gear transmission, belt transmission, etc.) according to actual needs. This flexibility enables the cleaning mechanism to adapt to a variety of working scenarios and cleaning needs; by setting the transmission assembly 40, the arrangement of multiple groups of cleaning roller brushes 20 can be easily realized. This is because the transmission assembly 40 can effectively distribute and adjust the power to ensure that each group of cleaning roller brushes 20 can obtain appropriate driving force, so as to work together and improve the cleaning efficiency; the transmission assembly 40 plays a role of buffering and shock absorption in the power transmission process, reducing the impact and vibration caused by direct connection. This not only protects the driving member 30 and the cleaning roller brush 20, but also extends the service life of the overall mechanism; the transmission assembly 40 can adopt a modular design, which enables quick and convenient maintenance or replacement when necessary. This design reduces maintenance costs and improves work efficiency.

[0060] Continue reading Figure 4 In some embodiments, the transmission assembly 40 includes a main transmission member 41 and an auxiliary transmission member 42, the input end of the main transmission member 41 is connected to the output end of the driving member 30, the auxiliary transmission member 42 is transmission-connected to the output end of the main transmission member 41, and the output end of the auxiliary transmission member 42 is connected to the cleaning roller brush 20. Specifically, the input end of the main transmission member 41 is directly connected to the output end of the driving member 30, ensuring the directness and efficiency of power transmission. When the driving member 30 is started, the power generated by it can be quickly and losslessly transmitted to the main transmission member 41; by introducing the auxiliary transmission member 42, the transmission ratio can be adjusted according to actual needs, so that the cleaning roller brush 20 can obtain appropriate speed and torque; the close combination of the main transmission member 41 and the auxiliary transmission member 42 makes the entire transmission assembly 40 compact and small in space; by optimizing the transmission ratio, the cleaning roller brush 20 can obtain a more stable and efficient power input, thereby improving its cleaning efficiency.

[0061] In the above embodiment, at least two auxiliary transmission members 42 are arranged along the circumference of the main transmission member 41. Specifically, this structure is conducive to arranging at least two cleaning roller brushes 20, thereby arranging the cleaning roller brushes 20, and realizing the expansion of the cleaning area of ​​the filter screen of the warehouse body 10, thereby effectively improving the cleaning coverage rate. This design not only enhances the cleaning effect of the filter screen of the warehouse body 10, but also improves the stability and reliability of the cleaning process.

[0062] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 It should be noted that the number of the auxiliary transmission members 42 is equal to that of the cleaning roller brushes 20. Specifically, the auxiliary transmission members 42 correspond to the cleaning roller brushes 20 one by one, which not only improves the transmission efficiency, but also enables each cleaning roller brush 20 to obtain uniform and stable power support; and, since each auxiliary transmission member 42 is dedicated to driving one cleaning roller brush 20, the motion state of each cleaning roller brush 20 can be controlled more accurately. This precise control helps to optimize the cleaning process and ensure that each cleaning roller brush 20 can effectively perform its cleaning task; in addition, this structure also helps to simplify the overall design and maintenance of the equipment, because each auxiliary transmission member 42 and the cleaning roller brush 20 are independently working units, which makes it faster and more convenient to operate when repairs or replacements are needed, thereby improving the overall reliability and maintainability of the equipment.

[0063] See also Figure 4 In the above embodiment, the main transmission member 41 is a main gear, and the auxiliary transmission member 42 is an auxiliary gear. The auxiliary gear is arranged on the outer periphery of the main gear, and the auxiliary gear is meshed with the main gear. Specifically, when the main gear starts to rotate under the drive of the driving member 30, its tooth structure will drive the auxiliary gear meshed with it to rotate synchronously. Since the auxiliary gear fits tightly on the outer periphery of the main gear, this rotational motion can be transmitted efficiently and reduce power loss. The meshing relationship between the auxiliary gear and the main gear enhances the stability and load-bearing capacity of the entire transmission system.

[0064] Continue reading Figure 4 In this embodiment, two cleaning roller brushes 20 are arranged along the circumference of the main transmission member 41, and the two cleaning roller brushes 20 are arranged in parallel and symmetrically. Specifically, the design of the double cleaning roller brushes 20 achieves a more comprehensive coverage of the filter screen on the warehouse body 10. When the main transmission member 41 rotates, the two cleaning roller brushes 20 will contact different areas of the filter screen at the same time, thereby ensuring that every part of the filter screen can be cleaned evenly. This comprehensive cleaning coverage significantly improves the cleanliness of the filter screen and reduces the risk of clogging and performance degradation; and the symmetrical arrangement of the two cleaning roller brushes 20 helps to maintain a balance in cleaning force.

[0065] See also Figure 5 In some embodiments, the cleaning roller brush 20 includes a roller brush shaft 21 and a brush 22 disposed on the roller brush shaft 21, the roller brush shaft 21 is connected to the auxiliary transmission member 42, and the axial direction of the roller brush shaft 21 is parallel to the vertical direction of the warehouse body 10. Specifically, the connection between the roller brush shaft 21 and the auxiliary transmission member 42 ensures that power can be effectively and stably transmitted to the cleaning roller brush 20. When the auxiliary transmission member 42 (such as an auxiliary gear) rotates under the drive of the driving member 30, it will drive the roller brush shaft 21 connected thereto to rotate together. This direct power transmission method reduces energy loss and improves transmission efficiency; the axial direction of the roller brush shaft 21 is parallel to the vertical direction of the warehouse body 10, which means that the cleaning roller brush 20 can maintain a stable motion trajectory when rotating, ensuring that the brush 22 can evenly contact the filter screen of the warehouse body 10, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the filter screen.

[0066] Continue reading Figure 5 In the above embodiment, the brushes 22 are arranged in multiple groups along the axial direction of the roller brush shaft 21, and each group of the brushes 22 includes multiple brush strips evenly distributed along the circumference of the roller brush shaft 21. Specifically, the arrangement of multiple groups of brushes 22 along the axial direction of the roller brush shaft 21 greatly increases the overall cleaning area of ​​the cleaning roller brush 20. When the roller brush rotates, each group of brushes 22 can effectively contact different areas of the filter screen of the bin body 10, thereby achieving a wider and more comprehensive cleaning coverage; the multiple brush strips in each group of brushes 22 are evenly distributed along the circumference of the roller brush shaft 21, ensuring the uniform application of cleaning force, avoiding dead corners or uneven cleaning that may occur during the cleaning process, thereby improving the consistency and thoroughness of the cleaning effect. This brush 22 design helps to improve cleaning efficiency. Due to the increase in cleaning area and the even distribution of cleaning force, the cleaning roller brush 20 can complete the cleaning of the entire filter screen in a shorter time, thereby reducing the operating time and energy consumption of the equipment.

[0067] Exemplarily, the brushes 22 of the adjacent cleaning roller brushes 20 have different diameters, namely, a long brush and a short brush, and the long brush and the short brush are arranged at intervals. Specifically, the different lengths of the long brush and the short brush enable them to reach different areas of the filter. Through this combination, all positions of the filter can be effectively cleaned, whether inside or outside the warehouse body 10; the interval arrangement of the long brush and the short brush further enhances the cleaning effect, and the long brush and the short brush will contact the filter in turn. This method can ensure that each part of the filter can be cleaned evenly and thoroughly, avoiding the problem of certain areas being missed or not being cleaned thoroughly. In addition, since the combination of long brushes and short brushes can adapt to the structures of different warehouse bodies 10, this cleaning roller brush 20 can be widely used in cleaning various types of warehouse bodies 10. Whether it is a large or small, complex or simple warehouse body 10 structure, efficient and comprehensive cleaning can be achieved through this combination of long brushes and short brushes.

[0068] It should be noted that the brush 22 is a brush 22 made of one or more combinations of animal hair, synthetic hair or plant fibers. Specifically, animal hair, synthetic hair and plant fibers have excellent elasticity, flexibility and adsorption, which enables them to fit tightly on the filter net and effectively remove dirt (such as activated sludge) thereon. When the brush 22 contacts the filter net, the bristles can penetrate into the tiny gaps of the dirt and separate the dirt from the filter net through physical friction. The design of this hair brush 22 is particularly suitable for removing highly adhesive and difficult-to-remove dirt such as activated sludge. Through the rotation and friction of the brush 22, the activated sludge can be effectively removed from the filter net, thereby restoring the filtering performance and ventilation performance of the filter net.

[0069] In some embodiments, the garbage bin cleaning device further includes a coupling assembly (not shown), the coupling assembly including a first coupling member disposed at the output end of the driving member 30, and a second coupling member disposed on the main transmission member 41, the first coupling member being cooperatively connected with the second coupling member. Specifically, the design of the coupling assembly takes into account the requirements for easy installation and maintenance, ensuring the rapid disassembly and assembly of the main transmission member 41 and the driving member 30. The cooperative connection between the first coupling member and the second coupling member adopts a structure that is easy to disassemble and assemble, which enables operations to be completed more quickly and conveniently when maintaining the equipment or replacing parts. Through the close cooperation between the first coupling member and the second coupling member, the stability of power transmission can also be effectively guaranteed.

[0070] See also Figure 6In some embodiments, the garbage bin cleaning device further comprises a spraying mechanism 50, which is disposed outside the bin body 10 and is used to spray the outer wall or inner wall of the bin body 10. Specifically, the spraying mechanism 50 can independently spray water on the peripheral wall of the bin body 10 so that the dirt is separated from the filter screen. The spraying mechanism 50 can effectively soften and loosen the dirt adhering to the wall of the bin body 10. This wetting and softening effect provides convenience for cleaning and scrubbing, making the cleaning process more efficient. Moreover, by regularly spraying the outer wall and inner wall of the bin body 10 with the spraying mechanism 50, the accumulation of dirt and impurities can be effectively prevented, thereby maintaining the clean state of the bin body 10, which is of great significance for extending the service life of the bin body 10, maintaining its normal operation, and improving the overall cleaning efficiency.

[0071] Continue reading Figure 6 In the above embodiment, the spraying mechanism 50 includes a water pump (not shown), a water inlet pipe (not shown) and a water outlet pipe 51, and the water inlet pipe and the water outlet pipe 51 are respectively connected to the water inlet end and the water outlet end of the water pump. Specifically, the water pump is used to send water from the water inlet pipe to the water outlet pipe 51. This pumping action ensures the continuity and stability of the water flow and provides reliable power support for the subsequent spraying operation. The power supply of the water pump comes from the power supply of the swimming pool robot itself. One end of the water inlet pipe is connected to the water inlet end of the water pump, and the other end of the water inlet pipe can be connected to the water inlet of the swimming pool robot, or the water inside the swimming pool robot can be sucked for cleaning. The water source of the water inlet pipe is not limited, and it can be cleaned and flushed. The water outlet pipe 51 is responsible for guiding the water flow to the area where spraying is required; the spraying mechanism 50 can also realize precise control of the water flow. By adjusting the working parameters of the water pump, the length and angle of the water outlet pipe 51, etc., the spray range, spray intensity and spray direction of the water flow can be flexibly controlled to meet the needs of different cleaning scenes. This precise control capability enables the spray mechanism 50 to complete cleaning tasks more efficiently and accurately.

[0072] Continue reading Figure 6In the above embodiment, the water outlet of the water outlet pipe 51 is provided with a nozzle 52, and the nozzle 52 is used to align with the outer wall or inner wall of the warehouse body 10. Specifically, the nozzle 52 can accurately control the spray direction and range of the water flow. By adjusting the angle and position of the nozzle 52, it can be ensured that the sprayed water flow is directly sprayed to the outer wall or inner wall of the warehouse body 10, so as to achieve targeted cleaning. This directional spraying effect can effectively assist the cleaning roller brush 20 to remove dirt on the filter net of the warehouse body 10 and improve the cleaning efficiency. The design of the nozzle 52 enables the water flow to be sprayed at an appropriate pressure and flow rate, which helps to form an impact force during the cleaning process and further enhances the cleaning effect of the filter net of the warehouse body 10. At the same time, by adjusting the working parameters of the water pump, the water output of the nozzle 52 can also be controlled to meet different cleaning needs. The nozzle 52 can also achieve uniform spraying, and its structural design enables the water flow to be evenly distributed when spraying, avoiding the occurrence of local excess or deficiency.

[0073] It should be noted that the nozzle 52 is aligned with the contact point between the cleaning roller brush 20 and the filter. Specifically, the nozzle 52 of the spray mechanism 50 corresponds to the contact point between the cleaning roller brush 20 and the bin body 10, so that when the cleaning roller brush 20 rotates, the dirt is better separated from the filter. Since the dirt (activated sludge) has strong adhesion, the effect of brushing and flushing is better. The synergistic effect of the spray mechanism 50 and the cleaning roller brush 20 makes it easier to separate the dirt from the surface of the bin body 10. The brushing action of the cleaning roller brush 20 cooperates with the flushing effect of the nozzle 52 to form an efficient cleaning mechanism, which helps to completely remove dirt from key components such as the filter, thereby extending the service life of the filter and maintaining its good filtering performance. For dirt with strong adhesion such as activated sludge, this combination of brushing and flushing shows special advantages. The flushing force of the nozzle 52 can effectively soften and separate these difficult-to-remove dirt, while the scrubbing action of the cleaning roller brush 20 further ensures that these dirt are completely removed, thereby improving the efficiency and effectiveness of the entire cleaning process. Through the precise control of the cleaning roller brush 20 and the spraying mechanism 50, the performance of the entire cleaning device is significantly improved. This design not only reduces maintenance costs and downtime, but also improves the reliability and service life of the equipment.

[0074] See also Figure 7Based on the same concept, the utility model also provides a swimming pool robot, including the garbage bin cleaning device as described above. Specifically, the swimming pool robot includes a shell 60, and the bin body 10 and the cleaning mechanism are located inside the shell 60. Through the built-in cleaning roller brush 20, the filter screen of the bin body 10 can be cleaned accurately and effectively. This design ensures that the filter screen can remain unobstructed during continuous use, avoiding performance degradation due to blockage; the swimming pool robot using the garbage bin cleaning device greatly reduces the risk of blockage by automatically cleaning the filter screen regularly, thereby ensuring continuous and stable cleaning performance; due to the continuous cleaning and anti-blocking design of the filter screen, the swimming pool robot can be more efficient when performing cleaning tasks, which not only reduces the time required for cleaning, but also improves the effect of a single cleaning, so that the swimming pool can be restored to a clean state faster; by reducing blockage and regular cleaning, the garbage bin cleaning device significantly extends the service life of the filter screen, thereby extending the overall use time of the swimming pool robot, and can continue to work efficiently with low maintenance requirements, thereby improving the user experience.

[0075] The garbage bin cleaning method of the swimming pool robot may include the following steps: obtaining first working status information collected by the swimming pool robot in the pool, the first working status information including whether there is a blockage prompt, etc.; presetting a first set threshold value according to the first working status information to determine whether to start the first cleaning state; (the first set threshold value includes when the motor load reaches the set first load, it is blocked by default; or, when the flow rate of the water outlet is less than the set first water output, it is blocked by default;) after starting the first cleaning state, presetting a second set threshold value according to a preset time (for example, cleaning for 1 minute or 3 minutes) or second working status information (the second set threshold value includes when the motor load reaches the set second load, it is not blocked by default; or, when the flow rate of the water outlet is greater than the set second water output, it is not blocked by default, and the robot stops at this time); thereafter, re-obtaining the working status of the swimming pool robot, cyclic detection, and cyclically starting cleaning.

[0076] When the swimming pool robot detects that the bin 10 is in a blocked state, the garbage bin cleaning device can be activated to scrub the inside or outside of the bin 10 to separate the activated sludge from the filter screen of the bin 10. The detection of the blocked state is specifically as follows: when blocked, the working force of the driving member 30 (driving motor) increases, and the load increases, so whether it is blocked can be determined by detecting the load of the driving motor; when blocked, the water output of the water outlet will decrease, so whether it is blocked can be determined by detecting the water output of the water outlet; it can also be determined by other methods, which are not limited in this application.

[0077] Of course, brushing the filter screen on the bin body 10 can separate the activated sludge from the filter screen of the bin body 10. The separated activated sludge will flow back into the bin body 10 of the garbage bin, causing the liquid in the bin body 10 to gradually become turbid.

[0078] To sum up, the utility model provides a garbage bin cleaning device and a swimming pool robot, which arrange a cleaning roller brush 20 inside or outside the bin body 10, and utilize the cleaning roller brush 20 to contact the outer wall or inner wall of the bin body 10 to clean the filter net of the bin body 10, thereby removing the activated sludge adhering to the filter net, avoiding the clogging of the filter net, improving the working efficiency of the swimming pool robot, extending the use time of the swimming pool robot, and improving the user experience.
