Detailed implementation manners

[0029] Please refer to Figures 1-5 , the present invention provides a technical solution:

[0030] A computer keyboard cleaning device includes a vertical plate 1, the vertical plate 1 is arranged on one side of the tabletop 2, and a touch cleaning mechanism 3 is arranged outside the vertical plate 1;

[0031] The touch cleaning mechanism 3 includes two rotating wheels 4, a tremor plate 5 is rotatably arranged outside the rotating wheels 4, the two tremor plates are arranged relatively in an up-and-down structure. Among them, a square groove 6 is opened on the bottom wall of the upper tremor plate 5, and the keyboard body 7 to be cleaned can be clamped inside the square groove 6;

[0032] The touch cleaning mechanism 3 further includes a rotation drive, the rotation drive is connected to the rotating wheel 4, and the rotation drive can drive the tremor plate 5 relatively;

[0033] In addition, a moving box 8 is arranged on the side of the lower tremor plate 5 facing the square groove 6, the moving box 8 can move along the tremor plate 5, a cleaning plate 9 is fixedly arranged on the side of the moving box facing the square groove, and cleaning hairs 10 are arranged on the outer wall of the cleaning plate 9, and the cleaning hairs 10 can clean the surface of the keyboard body 7.

[0034] In this technical solution, through the touch cleaning mechanism 3, when in use, the eccentric movement of the two tremor plates 5 can drive the keyboard to vibrate eccentrically, so that substances or adhesions in the keyboard gaps fall off. And when the two tremor plates approach, the surface can be cleaned by the cleaning hairs 10, improving the cleaning efficiency and avoiding the situation that the sundries in the gaps cannot be effectively cleaned.

[0035] Specifically, the rotation drive includes two gears A11, and the gears A11 are arranged inside a cavity 12 formed inside the vertical plate 1;

[0036] The two gears A11 are meshed, and a gear shaft fixed at the center of the gear A11 passes through the inner wall of the cavity 12 and extends to the outside and is coaxially connected with the rotating wheel 4;

[0037] A motor A13 is arranged outside the vertical plate 1, and an output shaft of the motor A13 passes through the outer wall of the vertical plate 1 and extends into the cavity 12 and is coaxially connected with one of the gears A11.

[0038] In this technical solution, the two gears A11 can drive the tremor plates 5 to tremor and approach each other simultaneously, so as to clean the surface of the keyboard. The distance between the two tremor plates can control the contact force between the cleaning hairs 10 and the keyboard, so as to achieve a better effect.

[0039] Furthermore, a limiting post 32 is arranged on the outer wall of the rotating wheel 4, and the limiting post 32 is arranged on one side of the axis of the rotating wheel;

[0040] The outer end of the limiting post 32 is rotatably connected with a hole at one end of the tremor plate 5.

[0041] In this technical solution, the limiting post 32 is arranged in an eccentric structure, realizing the approach of the two tremor plates 5.

[0042] Still further, a fixing rod 14 is arranged outside one of the tremor plates 5;

[0043] A fixing block 15 is arranged outside the other tremor plate 5, and a sliding groove 16 is formed in the middle of the fixing block 15;

[0044] The sliding groove 16 is slidably connected with the fixing rod 14.

[0045] In this technical solution, by arranging the sliding groove 16 and the fixing rod 14, the directions of the two tremor plates 5 are limited, so that the two tremor plates 5 can always be kept parallel, and thus the cleaning hairs 10 can always face the keyboard.

[0046] Even further, a buffer groove 17 is formed at one end of one of the tremor plates 5, at least one spring A19 is arranged inside the buffer groove 17, and the spring A19 is arranged inside a limiting hole 18 on the inner wall of the buffer groove 17;

[0047] A touch block A20 is slidably arranged in the buffer groove, and the bottom surface of the tremor plate 5 is fixedly connected with one end of the spring A19;

[0048] A touch block B21 is fixedly arranged at one end of the other tremor plate 5, and the outer wall of the touch block B21 can touch the outer wall of the touch block A20.

[0049] In this technical solution, through the setting of spring A19, when the two vibration plates 5 approach each other, the contact block A20 and the contact block B21 will collide. Thus, while the vibration plate 5 vibrates through eccentric rotation, further vibration is carried out through contact, and by increasing the vibration intensity, the adherents are shaken off.

[0050] It should be noted that there are four spring A19, and the spring A19 are all arranged at the corners inside the buffer groove 17.

[0051] In this technical solution, the setting of having four spring A19 makes the force on the contact block A20 uniform, so that it can slide and buffer in the buffer groove 17.

[0052] It should be noted that a fixed block 22 is fixedly arranged on one side of the upper vibration plate 5. One end of the fixed block 22 is fixedly connected to the collision block B21, and the other end of the fixed block 22 faces the square groove 6;

[0053] On the other side of the upper vibration plate 5, a movable block is slidably arranged; one end of the movable block faces the square groove;

[0054] The fixed block 22 and the movable block 23 can clamp the keyboard body 7 placed in the square groove 6.

[0055] In addition, at least one slider 24 is arranged on the bottom surface of the movable block 23. A limit groove 25 is correspondingly opened on the vibration plate 5, and the limit groove 25 is slidably connected to the movable block 23.

[0056] In addition, two sliders 24 and two limit grooves 25 are provided;

[0057] At least one spring B26 is arranged on the outside of the slider 24. One end of the spring B26 is pressed against the slider 24, and the other end of the spring B26 is pressed against the inner wall of the limit groove 25.

[0058] In this technical solution, the setting of the movable block 23 and the fixed block 22, by pushing the movable block with the spring B26, when placing the keyboard, one side is placed under the fixed block 22, and only need to press hard on the other side to place and fix the keyboard, which is very convenient, shortens the installation time of a single keyboard, and enables more keyboards to be cleaned in the same time.

[0059] In addition, a gear C27 is arranged on the outside of the moving box 8;

[0060] A moving groove 28 is opened on the vibration plate 5. A rack 29 is arranged on one side inside the moving groove 28, and a guide rail 30 is arranged in the middle of the moving groove 28;

[0061] The moving box 8 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the moving slot 28. The guide rail 30 is slidably connected to the guide slot 31 formed on the bottom surface of the moving box 8. The gear C27 is meshed with the rack 29, and the rotating shaft of the gear C27 is coaxially connected to the motor B disposed inside the moving box 8.

[0062] In this technical solution, the gear C27 is disposed on the outer side of the moving box 8, enabling it to move left and right through driving, thus reciprocating on the keyboard surface. As a result, the contact cleaning hairs 10 can be bent back and forth under force, effectively cleaning the surface. The setting of the cleaning plate 9 ensures that during operation, the contact force in each cleaning area is the same, without blind spots or points with relatively small force, enabling effective cleaning.

[0063] When the computer keyboard cleaning device is needed, first, place one side of the keyboard body 7 under the fixed clamping block 22 in the square slot 6. At this time, press the other side of the keyboard body 7 forcefully. Due to the settings of the movable clamping block 23 and the spring B26, the movable clamping block 23 moves. After the keyboard body 7 is placed, the movable clamping block 23 rebounds, and at this time, the keyboard body 7 is fixed.

[0064] At this time, the controller drives the output shaft of the motor A13 to rotate, driving the gear A11 to rotate, thereby driving the rotating wheel 4 to rotate, and then driving the tremor plate 5 to rotate eccentrically, causing the keyboard body 7 to vibrate eccentrically. Debris in the key gaps can fall accordingly. At the same time, due to the limitation of the fixed rod 14, the two tremor plates 5 remain parallel. When the two tremor plates 5 are close to each other, the contact block A20 touches the contact block B21, further increasing the tremor intensity and causing the adherents to fall.

[0065] When the two tremor plates 5 approach each other, the controller drives the output shaft of the motor B in the moving box 8 to rotate, driving the gear C27 to rotate. Due to the setting of the rack 29, the moving box 8 drives the cleaning hairs 10 to perform reciprocating left - and - right movements for cleaning.
