[0003] At present, household floor scrubbers are developing in the direction of small-sized and intelligent ones to meet the various needs of users. For the spray humidification function, the existing structure is to adjust the spray water volume through the electromagnetic pump design of multiple gears, and the water is sprayed to the roller brush to make the roller brush reach different degrees of humidity, and then the wet roller brush rotates to clean the dirt on the ground. However, in actual use, the floor conditions that need to be cleaned by the floor scrubber are various. If the amount of spray water is too much, the roller brush will be stained with too much water and affect the cleaning ability, and there will be more water stains after cleaning; if the amount of spray water is too little, it will lead to incomplete cleaning. Summary of the invention

[0004] In order to overcome at least one of the defects of the prior art described above, the present invention provides a spray head device and a floor scrubber.

[0038] For better understanding and implementation, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0039] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside" and "outside" etc. indicating directions or positional relationships are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0040] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art of the present invention. The terms used in the specification of the present invention herein are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0041] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0042] See also Figures 1 to 6 The present invention discloses a nozzle device, including a nozzle 1, a water inlet 2, a spray bracket 3 and a nozzle cover 8. The nozzle 1 is used to spray water on the ground; the water inlet 2 is used to supply water to the nozzle 1; the nozzle cover 8 is connected to the spray bracket 3, the spray bracket 3 supports the nozzle 1, and connects the nozzle 1 and the water inlet 2 to realize the directional spraying of water by the nozzle 1. In this way, on the basis of the original water of the floor brush of the floor scrubber directly spraying on the roller brush, by adding a nozzle device composed of the nozzle 1, the water inlet 2 and the spray bracket 3, the ground is sprayed with water in a directional manner, so that when it is necessary to clean a dirty ground or a ground that needs more water to be wetted, sufficient water is sprayed in advance to wet the ground in advance, so that the ground can be effectively cleaned in the subsequent process, and excessive water spraying on the roller brush is avoided, so that the roller brush maintains a good cleaning ability.

[0043] Specifically, see Figure 4 In the embodiment of the present invention, a water channel 301 is provided in the spray bracket 3, and the spray head 1 is embedded in the water channel 301. Conventional water supply is provided by laying pipes, but this makes the internal structure of the device more complicated. If a hose is used, it can be laid close to the components in the device, but the hose is easy to bend and clog, resulting in the inability to complete the water spraying action. The high-pressure water provided by the water pump will cause damage and leak at the weak position in the waterway, damaging the internal structure. Therefore, a water channel 301 is provided in the spray bracket 3 to reduce the number of additional pipes, simplify the structure of the device, and facilitate manufacturing.

[0044] See also Figure 2 and Figure 4 In the embodiment of the present invention, an annular groove 10181 is provided on the surface of the spray head 1, and a first sealing ring 4 is connected in the annular groove 10181, so that the spray head 1 is embedded in the water passage 301 to form a seal. Among them, the surface of the first sealing ring 4 in the embodiment of the present invention needs to be treated with acid and alkali resistance to prevent the user from adding weak acidic or weak alkaline water to the water tank in order to better clean the floor. Therefore, the first sealing ring 4 is used to seal the connection between the spray head 1 and the water passage 301 to prevent water from leaking from the connection, and can enhance the stability of the spray head 1 connected to the spray bracket 3.

[0045] In the embodiment of the present invention, refer to Figure 4 The water inlet 2 is provided with a connecting pipe 201, one end of which is connected to the water passage 301, and a first sealing member 5 for sealing and leak-proofing is provided at the connection between the connecting pipe 201 and the water passage 301. In the embodiment of the present invention, the first sealing member 5 is a threaded sleeve, which can increase the stability of the connection seal, and its surface needs to be treated with acid and alkali resistance to prevent users from adding weakly acidic or weakly alkaline water to the water tank in order to better clean the floor. Therefore, the first sealing member 5 is used to seal the connection between the connecting pipe 201 and the water passage 301 to prevent water from leaking from the connection. Figure 6 , the other end of the connecting pipe 201 is connected to the water inlet pipe (not shown in the figure), and the connection between the water inlet pipe and the connecting pipe 201 is provided with a first filter element 6 for filtering impurities in the water and a second seal element 7 for preventing water leakage. Among them, in the embodiment of the present invention, the first filter element 6 adopts a high-density filter mesh as an example, so as to isolate fine impurities in the water; the second seal element 7 in the embodiment of the present invention is a threaded kit, which can increase the stability of the connection seal, and its surface needs to be treated with acid and alkali resistance to prevent users from adding weak acidic or weak alkaline water to the water tank in order to better clean the floor. Therefore, the second seal element 7 is used to seal the connection between the connecting pipe 201 and the water inlet pipe to prevent water from leaking from the connection, and the first filter element 6 is provided at the connection to filter impurities in the water, effectively isolate impurities in the water, and prevent clogging of the injection head 1.

[0046] See also Figure 1In the embodiment of the present invention, a trumpet-shaped groove 81 is provided on the spray head cover plate 8, the spray head cover plate 8 is connected to the spray bracket 3, and the spray head 1 is penetrated at the bottom of the groove 81. Among them, the spray head 1 is exposed with a spray hole. As a preferred embodiment, the pipe diameter in the spray head 1 is arranged in a step-like manner. The closer to the spray hole, the smaller the pipe diameter. When the water encounters the step, a local recoil force will be formed, which can increase the spray pressure, so that the water can be stably sprayed for a corresponding distance before falling to the ground. In this way, the water will not fall on the roller brush cover 9, making the roller brush cover 9 wet. As another preferred embodiment, the pipe diameter in the spray head 1 is smaller as it approaches the spray hole, and finally the pipe diameter is equal to the spray hole. The spray hole is a section of equal diameter pipe. The water is continuously pressurized through the pipe in the spray head 1 until the spray hole stabilizes and then sprays out. The sprayed water flow is stable in a strip shape and reaches the destination surface away from the scrubber. In this way, the water will not fall on the roller brush cover 9, making the roller brush cover 9 wet. When water is sprayed out through the spray head 1, it is easy to scatter over a large area. By adding a spray head cover 8 and limiting the spray range with a trumpet-shaped groove 81 thereon, the effect of directional spraying is achieved, thereby avoiding increasing the amount of water on the ground in other areas and affecting the cleaning effect of the floor scrubber.

[0047] In the embodiment of the present invention, the water inlet pipe is connected to a water pump (not shown in the figure) for pumping water from the water tank.

In this way, the water is pressurized by the water pump and passed to the spray head 1, and the water can be sprayed to the ground where the water needs to be replenished.

[0048] The present invention also discloses a floor scrubber, comprising a machine body and a floor brush, the floor brush being movably connected to the machine body, and the floor brush being connected to the nozzle device as described above. Therefore, on the basis of the original water of the floor brush of the floor scrubber being directly sprayed onto the roller brush, a nozzle device consisting of a spray head 1, a water inlet 2 and a spray bracket 3 is added to spray water on the ground in a directional manner, so that when a dirty ground or a ground that needs more water to be wetted needs to be cleaned, sufficient water is sprayed in advance to wet the ground in advance, so that the ground can be effectively cleaned in the subsequent process, and excessive water is avoided from being sprayed on the roller brush, so that the roller brush maintains a good cleaning ability.

[0049] See also Figure 2 In the embodiment of the present invention, the spray head 1 and the spray bracket 3 of the spray head device are both connected to the top of the roller brush cover 9 of the floor brush, and a spray structure for spraying water on the roller brush is connected to the bottom of the roller brush cover 9; the spray structure includes a spray bracket 10 connected to the roller brush cover 9 and a spray member 11 connected to the spray bracket 10, and the water inlet 2 is connected to the spray bracket 10. In this way, the spray head 1 and the spray bracket 3 are both arranged above the roller brush cover 9, and can directly spray water to the ground, and the water inlet 2 is arranged in the spray structure below the roller brush cover 9, which can simplify the structure and reduce the space occupied.

[0050] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, a wiper 12 for evenly wiping the water sprayed by the spray member 11 onto the roller brush is connected to the spray bracket 10, and a comb-shaped structure is arranged on the wiper 12.

[0051] In the embodiment of the present invention, a control valve for controlling the water flow direction of the water pump is also provided in the floor brush, and the control valve is connected to the water inlet pipe of the spraying member 11 and the nozzle device respectively. The water pump is connected to the water tank through a water pipe to pump water, and then connected to the control valve through the water pipe. The water is diverted and controlled in the control valve, and then flows to the spray water inlet 1102 and / or the injection water inlet 1103 as required. The control valve combined with the water pump can realize water supply and spraying for the roller brush and control the water supply and injection of the nozzle head 1 to the ground.

[0052] See also Figure 2 In the embodiment of the present invention, a connecting structure is provided between the roller brush cover 9 and the spray bracket 10, and the connecting structure includes a clamping member 13, a limiting member 14 and an elastic member 15; the clamping member 13 can slide between the roller brush cover 9 and the spray; one end of the elastic member 15 is connected to the clamping member 13, and the other end is connected to the roller brush cover 9 or the spray bracket 10; a guide groove 1301 is provided on the clamping member 13, and the limiting member 14 is connected to the roller brush cover 9 or the spray bracket 10, so that the clamping member 13 can be clamped on the floor brush to form a stable detachable connection.

[0053] In the embodiment of the present invention, a switch is provided on the handle of the machine body, and the switch controls the opening and closing of the electromagnetic valve to realize the water supply of spraying and / or jetting.

[0054] For general floor cleaning, the water pump draws water from the water tank, and the water flows to the spray water inlet 1102 of the spray part 11 through the solenoid valve. After the water is diverted inside the spray part 11, it is sprayed out from the spray hole 1101 to the roller brush. The scraper combs the sprayed water to make the water on the roller brush uniform, and the roller brush can clean the floor more effectively. For floors that require more water to be effectively cleaned, in addition to the above operations, turn on the switch to allow the solenoid valve to supply water to the spray water inlet 1103. The water is filtered through the first filter element 6 and enters the connecting pipe 201, and then flows to the water pipe, and is sprayed out after being pressurized in the spray head 1. When enough water is sprayed, turn off the switch and clean the floor according to the normal floor washing operation.
