[0028] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 together, and now a dust box garbage recycling device provided by the present invention will be described. The dust box garbage recycling device is used to recycle the garbage in the dust box 3 applied in a floor sweeper. In one embodiment, the dust box garbage recycling device includes a garbage recycling box 1 and a suction machine 4. The suction machine 4 is used to suck the garbage in the dust box 3 into the garbage recycling box 1. Specifically, the interior of the garbage recycling box 1 has a garbage storage cavity 101 for placing garbage, and the surface of the garbage recycling box 1 has a dust box cavity 103 for placing the dust box 3. The garbage storage cavity 101 is communicated with the suction machine 4. The dust box cavity 103 has a first side wall 1031 and a second side wall 1032 facing the filter 3121. The first side wall 1031 is provided with a garbage inlet 1030 corresponding to the garbage outlet 3110, and the garbage inlet 1030 is directly opposite to the garbage outlet 3110, so that the garbage in the dust box 3 directly enters the garbage storage cavity 101. In this way, the filter 3121, the garbage outlet 3110, the garbage inlet 1030, and the garbage storage cavity 101 sequentially form a garbage suction channel. When it is necessary to clean the dust box 3, the dust box 3 is taken out of the floor sweeper and placed in the dust box cavity 103 of the garbage recycling box 1. The suction machine 4 starts to work, and a negative pressure is formed in the garbage storage cavity 101, sucking the dust and garbage on the filter 3121 and in the dust box 3 into the garbage recycling box 1, completing the cleaning of the filter 3121 and the garbage in the dust box 3. Among them, the filter 3121 can be selected as a high-efficiency filter paper, also known as a HEPA filter. Optionally, the suction machine can be started by manually triggering a switch or remotely controlled through an application program, etc. The starting method of the suction machine is not limited here.
[0029] Compared with the prior art, the dust box garbage recycling device provided by the present invention is used to recycle the garbage in the dust box 3. The garbage recycling device includes a garbage recycling bin 1 and a suction machine 4. The garbage recycling bin 1 has a garbage storage cavity for placing garbage and a dust box cavity 103 for accommodating the dust box 3. In this way, when the suction machine 4 is working, the air flow sequentially passes through the filter 3121 and the garbage outlet 3110 on the dust box 3, and the garbage inlet 1030 on the dust box cavity 103, sucking the garbage in the dust box 3 into the garbage storage cavity 101, eliminating the need for manual cleaning of the dust box 3. Moreover, when the air flow passes through the filter 3121, the dust and garbage adhered to the filter 3121 can be removed, preventing the filter 3121 from being blocked.
[0030] In one embodiment, a sealing strip made of rubber, silica gel or other materials is provided at the edge of the first side wall 1031 at the garbage inlet 1031. When the dust box 3 is placed in the dust box cavity 103, the garbage inlet 1030 and the garbage outlet 1031 can be sealed by this sealing strip, preventing dust from depositing between the garbage inlet 1030 and the garbage outlet 1031. In another embodiment, a sealing strip is provided at the edge of the dust box 103 at the garbage inlet 1030, which can also seal the gap between the garbage inlet 1030 and the garbage outlet 1031. In another embodiment, sealing strips are provided at the edges of both the garbage inlet 1030 and the garbage outlet 1031, and when the dust box 3 is placed in the dust box cavity 103, the two sealing strips are arranged in contact with each other.
[0031] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3, as one of the embodiments of the dust box garbage recycling device provided by the present invention, a filter suction cavity 104 for increasing the suction force is formed by the second side wall 1032 recessing away from the filter 3121. The filter suction cavity 104 is communicated with the outside air. In this way, when the suction machine 4 works, the outside air sequentially enters the filter suction cavity 104, passes through the filter 3121 and enters the dust box 3, and then passes through the garbage outlet 3110 and the garbage inlet 1030 to enter the garbage storage cavity 101. The setting of the filter suction cavity 104 can increase the air flow and the suction force, so that the dust box 3 can be cleaned more thoroughly. In this embodiment, the filter suction cavity 104 is formed by the second side wall 1032 recessing away from the filter 3121, so that there is a predetermined distance between the bottom surface of the recess and the filter 3121, and the filter suction cavity 104 can accommodate a certain amount of air. Optionally, in order to reduce air leakage, a first wind shield 16 is formed by the second side wall 1032 extending towards the outside, and the top surface and the side surface of the filter suction cavity 104 are respectively blocked on both sides. A second wind shield 17 is formed by the bottom wall of the filter suction cavity 104 extending towards the outside. An air inlet 170 is reserved between the first wind shield 16 and the second wind shield 17, so that air only enters the filter suction cavity 104 from the air inlet 170, defining the air flow direction and preventing the air flow from being disordered and unable to achieve the suction effect.
