Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of household appliances, and more specifically, to a cleaning device and an indoor air conditioning unit having the same. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, most wall-mounted air conditioners use air deflectors to direct airflow. These deflectors protrude outwards, resembling a tongue, allowing consumers to see the internal structure and affecting the overall appearance. Existing air conditioners with both top and bottom air outlets use this outward-protruding deflector structure. However, as people's living standards improve, their demands for air conditioner aesthetics will inevitably increase. The future trend will undoubtedly be the design of concealed air deflectors. Therefore, a roll-up curtain mechanism to seal the air outlet has emerged. When the air conditioner is turned off, the curtain opens, sealing the air outlet and creating a unified, seamless appearance for the entire air conditioner.

[0003] However, since the material of the retractable roller blind mechanism is generally soft, dust easily accumulates on the surface after long-term operation. If the dust on the surface is not cleaned in time, the roller blind will have a large tightening force when it is rolled up, and the surface can be easily scratched by the accumulated dust. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The main objective of this invention is to provide a cleaning device and an indoor air conditioning unit having the same, in order to solve the problem that dust easily accumulates on the surface of the opening and closing structure used to realize the opening and closing of the opening in the prior art.

Unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application pertains.

[0033] It should be noted that the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the exemplary embodiments according to this application. As used herein, the singular form is intended to include the plural form as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. Furthermore, it should be understood that when the terms "comprising" and / or "including" are used in this specification, they indicate the presence of features, steps, operations, devices, components, and / or combinations thereof.

[0034] This invention provides a cleaning device, please refer to... Figures 1 to 10 The device includes: an opening and closing structure 10, which is used to perform linear reciprocating motion at an opening 20 to close and open the opening 20; a drive mechanism 30, which is connected to the opening and closing structure 10 to drive the opening and closing structure 10 to move; a mounting box 40, in which at least a portion of the drive mechanism 30 is disposed; and a cleaning component 50, which is detachably connected to the mounting box 40, the cleaning component 50 including a cleaning element 51, the cleaning element 51 contacting the opening and closing structure 10, and the mounting box 40 receiving dust that falls off when the cleaning element 51 moves relative to the opening and closing structure 10.

[0035] The cleaning device of the present invention includes an opening and closing structure 10, a driving mechanism 30, a mounting box 40, and a cleaning component 50. The mounting box 40 is used to accommodate and install the driving mechanism 30. The driving mechanism 30 drives the opening and closing structure 10 to move, so that the opening and closing structure 10 closes the opening 20 and opens the opening 20. In order to clean the opening and closing structure 10, the cleaning device is provided with a cleaning component 50, which is detachably connected to the mounting box 40. The cleaning component 51 of the cleaning component 50 is in an interfering state with the opening and closing structure 10. When the driving mechanism 30 drives the opening and closing structure 10 to move, the opening and closing structure 10 and the cleaning component 51 are always in a state of relative motion. The cleaning component 51 sweeps away the dust on the surface of the opening and closing structure 10, achieving a self-cleaning effect. The dust swept off by the cleaning component 51 falls into the mounting box 40, solving the problem of dust accumulation on the surface of the opening and closing structure. Furthermore, the cleaning device does not require the separate assembly of the driving mechanism 30 and the dust collection box, so that the cleaning component 51 can clean and collect dust on the opening and closing structure 10. The structure is compact and the cost is low.

[0036] In practice, when the user turns on or off the indoor unit of the air conditioner, the opening and closing structure 10 will automatically open and close without the need for remote control. This achieves the purpose of automatically cleaning the appearance of the roller shutter. The cleaning component 50 mainly relies on the opening and closing of the opening and closing structure 10 to achieve self-cleaning of the opening and closing structure 10, preventing dust from accumulating on the surface of the opening and closing structure 10 and affecting the appearance of the air conditioner. Therefore, the cleaning device has a simple program and a high degree of automation.

[0037] In this embodiment, the cleaning component 50 further includes a mounting cover 52, which is detachably connected to the mounting box 40 to cover the mounting box 40; the cleaning component 51 is disposed on the mounting cover 52. This arrangement facilitates the disassembly and cleaning of the cleaning component 50.

[0038] In this embodiment, the mounting box 40 is provided with an interface 41; the mounting cover 52 is provided with a plug 53 that is compatible with the interface 41, and the plug 53 is inserted into the interface 41. This arrangement enables the positioning of the mounting cover 52 and the mounting box 40.

[0039] In this embodiment, the mounting cover 52 further includes a guide rib 56 located at the front end of the plug 53; the mounting box 40 has two guide plates 43 spaced apart to form a guide space, and the guide rib 56 is disposed within the guide space; wherein, at least one guide plate 43 has an interface 41 at one end facing the plug 53. This arrangement facilitates accurate docking between the mounting cover 52 and the mounting box 40.

[0040] In this embodiment, the cleaning component 50 further includes a snap-fit ​​structure 54, through which the mounting cover 52 snaps into the mounting box 40. This arrangement facilitates the disassembly of the cleaning component 50.

[0041] Specifically, the snap-fit ​​structure 54 includes a snap-fit ​​541 and a spring snap 542. The snap-fit ​​541 is disposed on the mounting box 40, and the spring snap 542 is disposed on the mounting cover 52. The spring snap 542 and the snap-fit ​​541 snap together.

[0042] In this embodiment, the mounting cover 52 is provided with a first fastening hole 55, and the mounting box 40 is provided with a second fastening hole 42. The mounting cover 52 is connected to the mounting box 40 by fasteners inserted into the first fastening hole 55 and the second fastening hole 42. This arrangement achieves reliable fixation between the mounting cover 52 and the mounting box 40.

[0043] Optionally, the number of the first fastening hole 55 and the second fastening hole 42 is not limited, as long as the cover 52 is securely fixed; the fastener can be a pin, screw, bolt or other fastener.

[0044] In practice, the cleaning component 50 is assembled on the mounting box 40. Precise alignment can be achieved through the two plugs 53 on the mounting cover 52. The plugs 53 are inserted into the interface 41. The limiting plates above and below the interface 41 limit the vertical direction of the plugs 53. There is a guide rib 56 of a certain length in front of the plugs 53. The plugs 53 are inserted into the guide space of the mounting box 40 through the guide rib 56 until they are inserted to the bottom of the guide space. The two guide plates 43 limit the horizontal direction of the mounting cover 52 so that the cleaning component 50 can be accurately inserted into the mounting box 40 in the horizontal and vertical directions. Once the cleaning component 50 is inserted, the spring clip 542 on the cleaning component 50 will engage with the latch 541 on the mounting box 40, preventing the cleaning component 50 from wobbling vertically. After the spring clip 542 is secured, there are pin holes (i.e., the first fastening hole 55) on the cleaning component 50 and pin holes (i.e., the second fastening hole 42) on the mounting box 40. Inserting the pin (i.e., the fastener) into the pin hole restricts the forward and backward movement of the cleaning component 50. At this time, the cleaning component 50 is completely fixed to the mounting box 40. Since the spring clip 542 is located below the cleaning component 50, it serves to prevent incorrect assembly. This installation method makes it convenient for users to clean the cleaning component 50. When the device is off, the user only needs to open the decorative cover of the outer casing 4 to remove the pin on the cleaning component 50, and then open the spring clip 542 of the cleaning component 50 to easily remove the cleaning component 50. The user can choose to clean the entire cleaning component 50 or remove the cleaning component 51 for cleaning.

[0045] In this embodiment, the mounting cover 52 is provided with a mounting groove 57, and part of the structure of the cleaning component 51 is disposed in the mounting groove 57; wherein, one end of the mounting groove 57 extends to the end wall of the mounting cover 52 to form a mounting opening 573, and the cleaning component 51 is inserted into the mounting groove 57 through the mounting opening 573. This arrangement facilitates the installation and removal of the cleaning component 51.

[0046] Specifically, both the cleaning component 51 and the mounting groove 57 extend along a first preset direction, which is perpendicular to the moving direction of the opening and closing structure 10. The first preset direction is... Figure 6 The z-direction; the direction of movement of the opening and closing structure 10 is... Figure 3 As shown in the x and y directions, when the opening and closing structure 10 moves along the x direction, the opening and closing structure 10 closes the opening; when the opening and closing structure 10 moves along the y direction, the opening and closing structure 10 opens the opening.

[0047] In this embodiment, the cleaning component 51 has a T-shaped structure and includes a mounting part 511 and a cleaning part 512 arranged perpendicularly. The first end of the cleaning part 512 is connected to the mounting part 511, and the second end of the cleaning part 512 is in contact with the opening and closing structure 10. The mounting cover 52 is provided with a mounting groove 57, which is a T-shaped groove. The T-shaped groove includes a first groove body 571 and a second groove body 572 arranged perpendicularly. The mounting part 511 is disposed in the first groove body 571, and the cleaning part 512 passes through the second groove body 572 so that the second end of the cleaning part 512 extends out of the opening of the T-shaped groove.

[0048] In this embodiment, the mounting cover 52 is provided with a mounting groove 57, and part of the structure of the cleaning component 51 is disposed in the mounting groove 57; an adhesive layer is provided at the first end of the cleaning component 51, and the cleaning component 51 is connected to the bottom of the mounting groove 57 through the adhesive layer. This arrangement facilitates the disassembly of the cleaning component 51.

[0049] In practice, a cleaning component 51 is installed on the mounting cover 52. The cleaning component 51 cleans the surface of the opening and closing structure 10, achieving a self-cleaning effect. Since the cleaning component 51 experiences force along the width direction (i.e., along the movement direction of the opening and closing structure 10) when cleaning the opening and closing structure 10, the cleaning component 51 is designed as a T-shaped structure. The T-shaped groove on the mounting cover 52 is adapted to the T-shaped structure, and the T-shaped groove firmly clamps the cleaning component 51, allowing the cleaning component 51 to clean the surface of the opening and closing structure 10 back and forth. The specific structure is as follows: Figures 6 to 8 As shown. A T-shaped groove is designed on the mounting cover 52, allowing the cleaning component 51 to be inserted along it. One end of the cleaning component 51 has an adhesive layer; when the other end is inserted into the T-shaped groove, the adhesive layer adheres to the mounting cover 52. Since the cleaning component 51 is not subjected to force along the extension direction of the T-shaped groove, the adhesive layer does not need to be very firmly attached to the mounting cover 52. When disassembling and cleaning the cleaning assembly 50, the user can gently pull out the cleaning component 51 for replacement or cleaning. The specific installation method of the cleaning assembly 50 is as follows... Figure 6 As shown.

[0050] In this embodiment, the drive mechanism 30 includes a drive member 31 and a transmission assembly 32. The drive member 31 is connected to the opening and closing structure 10 through the transmission assembly 32. The transmission assembly 32 is disposed inside the mounting box 40, and the output shaft of the drive member 31 passes through the box wall of the mounting box 40 and is connected to the transmission assembly 32.

[0051] Specifically, the driving component 31 is a motor.

[0052] Alternatively, the cleaning component 51 can be a brush, a sponge, or a cloth. Of course, it can also be any other material that can clean the opening and closing structure 10.

[0053] In one embodiment, opening 20 is an air vent, and opening / closing structure 10 is a roller blind, which is used to open and close the air vent. The transmission assembly 32 includes a drum 33 and a transmission gear. A drive member 31 is connected to the transmission gear to drive it to rotate. The transmission gear meshes with transmission teeth on the drum 33 to drive the drum 33 to rotate. The drum 33 is connected to the roller blind so that the roller blind can be wound onto or released from the drum 33. Specifically, the drive mechanism also includes a coil spring assembly 60. One end of the roller blind is connected to the drum 33, and the other end of the roller blind is connected to the coil spring assembly 60.

[0054] This invention also provides an indoor air conditioning unit, please refer to... Figure 11 It includes a cleaning device 3, wherein the cleaning device 3 is the cleaning device in the above embodiment.

[0055] Specifically, the indoor unit of the air conditioner also includes a panel 1, a bottom shell 2, and an outer casing decorative piece 4. The outer casing decorative piece 4 has two air vents, one for air inlet and the other for air outlet. There are two cleaning devices 3, each including a roller shutter mechanism and a cleaning assembly 50. The roller shutter mechanism includes a roller shutter (i.e., an opening and closing structure), a drive mechanism, and a mounting box. The two cleaning devices 3 are positioned one-to-one with the two air vents, and each cleaning device 3 is installed at its corresponding air vent, with the roller shutter mechanism controlling the opening and closing of the respective vent. The main function of the roller shutter mechanism is to achieve a fully closed appearance for the air vents, preventing dust from falling onto the filter or entering the indoor unit after the air conditioner is turned off, thus preventing dust from being blown into the room during airflow and affecting the user's health.

[0056] Specifically, the transmission assembly 32 includes a drum 33 and a transmission gear. The drive member 31 is connected to the transmission gear to drive the transmission gear to rotate. The transmission gear meshes with the transmission teeth on the drum 33 to drive the drum to rotate. The drive mechanism also includes a coil spring assembly 60. One end of the roller blind is connected to the drum 33, and the other end of the roller blind is connected to the coil spring assembly 60, so that the roller blind opens or closes the air vent under the action of the coil spring assembly 60, the drive member 31, and the drum 33. When the roller blind is rolled up on the drum 33, the drive mechanism provides power. When the roller blind moves toward the coil spring assembly 60, the coil spring assembly 60 provides the main power to pull the roller blind, and the drive member 31 follows to release the roller blind on the drum 33.

[0057] Specifically, when the motor drives the drum 33 to rotate, causing the roller shutter to open or close, the cleaning component automatically sweeps away dust and debris from the surface of the roller shutter, collecting the dust in the dust collection box to prevent dust accumulation on the surface. The direction of the roller shutter's movement is shown in [reference needed]. Figure 3 The x and y directions are shown.

[0058] The cleaning device of this application includes a concealed cleaning component that can automatically clean the appearance of the roller shutter. At the same time, the cleaning component is easy to disassemble and wash, making it convenient for users to disassemble, wash and replace the cleaning component, and preventing dust accumulation on the surface of the roller shutter from causing scratches.

[0059] This application solves the problem of scratches on the appearance of roll-up blinds. The cleaning component can be disassembled and installed by the user, who can clean it himself. The cleaning component and the installation box are assembled by simple plug-in interface, and can be directly removed without complicated operation. It effectively uses the movement of the blind itself to achieve the purpose of dust removal, without the need for a new complicated cleaning mechanism. The cleaning component is hidden inside the air conditioner's exterior cover, resulting in a clean and beautiful appearance.

[0060] Compared to conventional air vent closing devices, this application utilizes a retractable roller shutter design, which allows for automatic cleaning of the roller shutter's appearance. The cleaning components can be removed manually by levering a spring-loaded latch, eliminating the need for screws and facilitating easy replacement of the cleaning parts. The cleaning components are precisely inserted into the roller shutter mechanism via a plug-in interface, simplifying assembly for the user.

[0061] The cleaning components of this application are secured by snap-fit ​​fasteners, inserts, interfaces, and pins. During assembly, they are directly inserted into the mounting box via the inserts and interfaces, preventing misalignment that could lead to malfunction. The cleaning parts of the cleaning components are easily disassembled, facilitating user removal, cleaning, or replacement. The existing motion mechanism can be utilized to achieve the purpose of cleaning the motion mechanism.

[0062] As can be seen from the above description, the embodiments of the present invention achieve the following technical effects:

[0063] The cleaning device of the present invention includes an opening and closing structure 10, a driving mechanism 30, a mounting box 40, and a cleaning component 50. The mounting box 40 is used to accommodate and install the driving mechanism 30. The driving mechanism 30 drives the opening and closing structure 10 to move, so that the opening and closing structure 10 closes the opening 20 and opens the opening 20. In order to clean the opening and closing structure 10, the cleaning device is provided with a cleaning component 50, which is detachably connected to the mounting box 40. The cleaning component 51 of the cleaning component 50 is in an interfering state with the opening and closing structure 10. When the driving mechanism 30 drives the opening and closing structure 10 to move, the opening and closing structure 10 and the cleaning component 51 are always in a state of relative motion. The cleaning component 51 sweeps away the dust on the surface of the opening and closing structure 10, achieving a self-cleaning effect. The dust swept off by the cleaning component 51 falls into the mounting box 40, solving the problem of dust accumulation on the surface of the opening and closing structure. Furthermore, the cleaning device does not require the separate assembly of the driving mechanism 30 and the dust collection box, so that the cleaning component 51 can clean and collect dust on the opening and closing structure 10. The structure is compact and the cost is low.
