[0031] The present invention disassembles the radar protection cover of the radar component 3 and designs a rotatable structural feature to provide transmission for the floating cavity component 6 below the radar component 3, thereby achieving the purpose of controlling the lifting and lowering of the floating cavity component 6 by rotating the radar protection cover. It improves the original structure without adding new switch appearance features that affect the original appearance of the cleaning robot, and does not require flipping the body to cause effort and avoid dirtying the cleaning environment.

[0032] The radar component 3 is provided with a first protrusion 31 and a second protrusion 32, which are fixedly connected. The radar component 3 is also provided with a plurality of first screw holes 33, which are arranged outside the first and second protrusions 31 and 32. The upper cover 4 also has a second through hole 41 in the middle thereof adapted to the radar component 3. The upper cover 4 is fixedly connected to the radar component 3 by screws engaging with the first screw holes 33. The radar component 3 is placed in the second through hole 41 of the upper cover 4 and is fixed to the upper cover 4 by engaging the first screw holes 33 arranged around the radar component 3 with bolts.

[0033] The radar protection cover includes a torsion member 1 and a support member 2. The torsion member 1 is integrally provided with a sliding portion 11 and a first connecting portion 12. The first connecting portion 12 is symmetrically fixed to both sides of the torsion member 1. The torsion member 1 is provided with a plurality of connecting ribs 13 fixedly connected to the sliding portion 11. The sliding portion 11 is also fixedly connected to the first connecting portion 12. A first through hole 21 is defined in the middle of the support member 2 for the first protrusion 31 of the radar element 3 to pass through. A first guide rail portion 22 is defined on the top surface of the support member 2 to match the sliding portion 11. A second guide rail portion 23 is defined along the first guide rail portion 22. A second screw hole 24 is also defined on one side of the support member 2. The sliding portion 11 is configured as an annular ring. The first guide rail portion 22 is configured as an annular groove structure that matches the sliding portion 11. The second guide rail portion 23 is provided in a semi-lunar arc shape along the first guide rail portion 22. The torsion member 1 is rotatably connected to the support member 2 by a cap screw and the second guide rail portion 23. The radar protection cover is divided into two parts: a torsion member 1 and a support member 2. The top of the torsion member 1 serves as the torsion part, the sliding part 11 is a circular ring structure, and the first guide rail part 22 is a circular ring groove structure that cooperates with the sliding part 11. The sliding part 11 at the bottom of the torsion member 1 cooperates with the first guide rail part 22 of the support member 2 to be rotatably slidably connected. The first connecting part 12 passes through the second guide rail part 23, and after the large cap screw is locked on the first connecting part 12, and the nut size of the large cap screw is larger than the guide rail hole of the second guide rail part 23, the large cap screw and the support member 2 are clearance fit, so that the torsion member 1 can be rotatably fixed on the support member 2, and the second guide rail part 23 plays a limiting role at this time.

[0034] The upper cover 4 is provided with a placement slot 42 adapted for the support member 2. It also defines a third guide rail portion 43 and a fourth guide rail portion 44, which are respectively arranged along the outer periphery of the second through hole 41. The support member 2 is fixedly connected to the upper cover 4 via screws and the second screw holes 24. The third and fourth guide rail portions 43 and 44 are arranged in a semi-lunar arc shape. The upper cover 4 is a local feature of the cleaning robot's housing. The support member 2 is placed within the placement slot 42 of the upper cover 4 and secured to the upper cover 4 via screws and the second screw holes 24.

[0035] The transmission member 5 is integrally fixed with a sleeve portion 51, a second connecting portion 52 and a lifting portion 53. The second connecting portion 52 is rotatably connected to the upper cover member 4 through a large cap screw and a fourth guide rail portion 44. The sleeve portion 51 passes through the third guide rail portion 43 of the upper cover member 4 and is fitted into the first connecting portion 12 of the torsion member 1.

[0036] The lifting portion 53 is a columnar buckling structure. The lifting portion 53 extends to the top of the floating cavity 6 . A first inclined portion 54 is provided on the bottom side of the lifting portion 53 .

[0037] A cleaning robot includes a shell and a floating cavity 6 arranged inside the shell. The top surface of the floating cavity 6 is provided with a snap structure 61 that cooperates with a lifting portion 53. The snap structure 61 is provided with a second inclined portion 62 that cooperates with a first inclined portion 54.

[0038] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: the torsion member 1 is provided with a sliding portion 11 and a first connecting portion 12, the sliding portion 11 is a circular ring structure, and the first connecting portion 12 is two screw columns on the sliding portion 11; the support member 2 is provided with a first guide rail portion 22 and a second guide rail portion 23, the first guide rail portion 22 is a circular ring groove structure that matches the sliding portion 11, and the second guide rail portion 23 is a semi-lunar guide rail hole corresponding to the position of the first connecting portion 12. After the sliding portion 11 of the torsion member 1 is matched with the first guide rail portion 22 of the support member 2, the first connecting portion 12 passes through the second guide rail portion 23, and after the large cap screw is locked on the first connecting portion 12, the nut size of the large cap screw is larger than the guide rail hole of the second guide rail portion 23, and the large cap screw and the support member 2 are clearance-fitted, so that the torsion member 1 can be rotatably fixed on the support member 2, and the two ends of the semi-lunar guide hole of the second guide rail portion 23 provide the torsion member 1 with a start and stop limit function for rotation;

[0039] The torsion member 1 and the support member 2 form a radar protection cover. The radar member 3 is fixed to the upper cover member 4 through the first screw hole 33 on the radar member 3, and the radar protection cover is fixed to the upper cover member 4 through the second screw hole 24 on the support member 2. The radar protection cover covers the radar member 3 to protect it from collision.

[0040] The transmission member 5 is provided with a second connecting portion 52 structure similar to the first connecting portion 12. It passes through the fourth guide rail portion 44 (similar to the second guide rail portion 23) on the upper cover 4 and is rotatably locked to the back of the upper cover 4 with a large cap screw. The transmission member 5 also has a sleeve portion 51. The sleeve portion 51 passes through the third guide rail portion 43 of the upper cover 4 and fits with the first connecting portion 12 of the torsion member 1. When the torsion member 1 on the upper cover 4 is rotated, the first connecting portion 12 drives the sleeve portion 51, thereby causing the transmission member 5 under the upper cover 4 (inside the housing) to rotate synchronously.

[0041] The transmission member 5 is provided with a lifting portion 53, which is a columnar buckling structure extending downward and extending to the snap-fit ​​structure 61 at the top of the floating cavity member 6. The side of the columnar buckling structure is a raised first inclined portion 54, and the top of the floating cavity member 6 is provided with a second inclined portion 62 that cooperates with the first inclined portion 54; when the torsion member 1 is rotated to rotate the transmission member 5, the first inclined portion 54 and the second inclined portion 62 gradually approach and fit together, and continue to move after fitting together. The first inclined portion 54 gives the second inclined portion 62 an upward lifting force, so that the second inclined portion 62 is lifted, so that the snap-fit ​​structure 61 of the floating cavity member 6 is lifted, that is, the floating cavity member 6 is lifted. When the torsion member 1 is reversed, due to the self-gravity of the floating cavity member 6, the second inclined portion 62 gradually descends and separates from the first inclined portion 54, thereby achieving the purpose of lowering the floating cavity member 6.

[0042] Furthermore, all the aforementioned screw connection structures can be replaced with undercut connection structures, thereby reducing the use of screws.

[0043] The main function of the present invention is to disassemble the radar protection cover of the radar unit 3 and design a rotatable structure to provide transmission to the floating cavity 6 below the radar unit 3. This achieves the purpose of controlling the raising and lowering of the floating cavity 6 by rotating the radar protection cover. This improves on the existing structure without adding a switch feature that would affect the original appearance of the cleaning robot, and without the need to flip the cleaning robot body, which would be laborious and would dirty the cleaning environment. The floating cavity raising and lowering of the cleaning robot no longer requires reliance on a mobile phone or app. The triggering of the cleaning robot's floating cavity raising and lowering switch does not require the reaction of the cleaning robot body, and the floating cavity raising and lowering switch does not affect the cleaning robot's appearance.

[0044] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms "up", "down", "top", "bottom", "left", "right", etc. indicate directions or positional relationships based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, which are only for the convenience of describing the present invention, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the actual use direction of the present invention.

[0045] In summary, after reading the present invention document, ordinary technicians in this field can make various other corresponding transformation schemes based on the technical solutions and technical concepts of the present invention without creative mental work, and all of them fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
