[0019] The technical solution of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0020] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms "center", "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inner", "outer", etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship, are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the 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 orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the present invention. In addition, the terms "first", "second", and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0021] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected" and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal connection of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances. In addition, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the air flotation device 100 with a cleaning function of the present invention includes an air flotation fixing component 1, an air flotation rotating component 2 arranged above the air flotation fixing component 1 to form an air flotation gap 23 with the air flotation fixing component 1, a storage component 3 for providing a magnetic fluid to the air flotation gap 23, a first electromagnet 4 radially arranged on the outside of the air flotation gap 23, a second electromagnet 5 arranged between the storage component 3 and the air flotation fixing component 1, a third electromagnet 6 arranged below the first electromagnet 4, a support ring 7 fixedly connecting the first electromagnet 4, the third electromagnet 6 and the air flotation fixing component 1, and a camera 8.

[0023] The position of the air-floating fixed component 1 is relatively fixed, and the air-floating rotating component 2 can form an air-floating gap 23 relative to the air-floating fixed component 1 by generating gas, and can also rotate relative to the air-floating fixed component 1 .

[0024] The air-floating rotating component 2 is provided with a plurality of openings 21 facing the air-floating gap 23 . A through hole 22 is formed through the air-floating rotating component 2 . The storage element 3 passes through the through hole 22 and is in communication with the air-floating gap 23 .

[0025] The storage member 3 forms a storage cavity 31 for accommodating the magnetic fluid. The storage member 3 is spaced apart from the air-floating fixing assembly 1 to form a storage channel 32 . The storage channel 32 is used to connect the storage cavity 31 and the air-floating gap 23 .

[0026] The storage member 3 is coaxially arranged with the air-floating rotating assembly 2, and the rotation of the air-floating rotating assembly 2 will not affect the storage member 3. Of course, in some embodiments, the storage member 3 can also be fixedly connected with the air-floating rotating assembly 2.

[0027] The second electromagnet 5 is radially arranged between the storage cavity 31 and the air flotation gap 23. The second electromagnet 5 is provided with a connection hole 51 for connecting the storage channel 32 and the air flotation gap 23. When the second electromagnet 5 is powered on, it can give magnetic force to the magnetic fluid in the storage channel 32, preventing the magnetic fluid in the storage channel 32 from entering the air flotation gap 23 from the connection hole 51. After the second electromagnet 5 is powered off, under the action of gravity and the magnetic force of the first electromagnet 4 on the magnetic fluid, the magnetic fluid enters the air flotation gap 23 through the connection hole 51.

[0028] The first electromagnet 4 can be activated to discharge the magnetic fluid and the impurities contained in the air floating gap 23. Specifically, when the second electromagnet 5 stops working, the first electromagnet 4 is activated, the magnetic fluid enters the air floating gap 23, then wraps the impurities in the air floating gap 23, and flows outward along the undulating gap to the first electromagnet 4.

[0029] The first electromagnet 4 is spaced apart from the air-floating rotating assembly 2 in the radial direction to form a first outflow gap 41 .

[0030] The third electromagnet 6 is spaced apart from the air-floating fixing assembly 1 to form a second outflow gap 61 , and the second outflow gap 61 is communicated with the first outflow gap 41 .

[0031] The support ring 7 is provided with a communication hole 71 for communicating the first outflow gap 41 with the second outflow gap 61 .

[0032] When there is enough magnetic fluid near the first electromagnet 4 and in the first outflow gap 41, the first electromagnet 4 is turned off and the third electromagnet 6 is started. The magnetic fluid in the first outflow gap 41 enters the second outflow gap 61 through the connecting hole 71 under the magnetic force of the second electromagnet 5. When the magnetic fluid in the second outflow gap 61 reaches a set amount, the third electromagnet 6 is disconnected. The magnetic fluid in the second outflow gap 61 falls naturally under the action of gravity, and a recovery device can be provided below to recover the magnetic fluid.

[0033] The camera 8 is disposed in the opening 21, and the camera 8 is disposed toward the air flotation gap 23. In this embodiment, the number of the cameras 8 is multiple, so as to monitor multiple spaces in the air flotation gap 23. The camera 8 can observe the amount of impurities in the air flotation gap 23. When the impurities reach a certain level, the first electromagnet 4 can be activated for cleaning. The camera 8 can also detect and observe the amount of impurity particles in the magnetic fluid and the content of dirt in the air flotation gap 23, thereby judging the cleaning effect.

[0034] The flotation device 100 with a cleaning function of the present invention is provided with a storage element 3 containing a magnetic fluid and a first electromagnet 4, so that impurities can be wrapped by the magnetic fluid, and the impurities in the flotation gap 23 can be removed by attraction by the first electromagnet 4. This can eliminate the inconvenience caused by jamming, greatly improve production efficiency, reduce labor costs, and ensure the stability and reliability of the flotation device 100 with a cleaning function.

[0035] The technical features of the above-described embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0036] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the present invention, and the descriptions thereof are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the invention patent. It should be pointed out that, for ordinary technicians in this field, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the patent of the present invention shall be subject to the attached claims.
