Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of cleaning tool technology, and specifically refers to a flat mop with directional function. Background Technology

[0002] Flat mops are commonly used floor cleaning tools in homes, small offices, and commercial spaces. They are favored by consumers due to their high cleaning efficiency, strong stain removal power, and ease of use. Flat mops are widely used in the cleaning tool field because of their large cleaning range, convenient placement, and practicality. A flat mop consists of a mop handle and a flat mop body movably connected to the handle, with wiping agents provided on the flat mop body.

[0003] 1. Existing flat mops generally consist of a mop handle, a mop head, and a connector connecting the mop handle and the mop head. Most flat mops are also equipped with a bucket for washing the mop. In use, simply hold the mop handle and drag it to wipe and clean the mop head and mop head. For washing, rotate the mop handle around the connector and press it against one side of the mop head, causing the entire flat mop to move up and down, thus moving the mop head up and down in the bucket for cleaning.

[0040] The outstanding and beneficial technical effects of this invention compared to the prior art are:

[0041] This patent uses the locking groove to engage with the left or right seat to restrict the mop handle from rotating along the length of the mop body, thereby positioning the mop handle in a folded state.

[0042] This patent uses positioning grooves and locking grooves to restrict the mop handle from rotating in the length direction and width direction of the mop body, thereby achieving complete positioning of the mop body to facilitate rinsing, storage and transportation of the flat mop.

[0043] This patent uses a guide block to drive the mop body to rotate inward. This tendency ensures that the mop body always rotates inward and not outward when the user operates the flat mop, preventing the mop body from rotating outward and affecting the normal operation of the flat mop, thus enhancing the user's product experience.

[0044] The push rod enables the mop body to switch postures, and the push rod and related components constitute the posture switching mechanism.

[0066] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments:

[0067] A flat mop with a storage and positioning structure includes a mop handle 1 and a mop plate body 2, such as Figure 1 As shown, one end of the mop handle 1 is provided with a connector 11, and the mop body 2 is generally square, having a long side and a short side; the mop body 2 is provided with an adapter seat 21 arranged in the length direction of the mop body 2, and an adapter assembly for rotating the mop handle 1 in the length direction of the mop body 2 and / or in the width direction of the mop body 2 is sequentially connected between the adapter seat 21 and the connector 11.

[0068] The adapter assembly includes an adapter block 3, which is generally flat. A first adapter shaft 32, connecting to the adapter seat 21, is integrally formed at its lower end. An adapter hole is provided at the upper end of the adapter block 3, through which the second adapter shaft 31 passes. The second adapter shaft 31 is rotatably connected to the connector 11. In this patent, the first adapter shaft 32 and the second adapter shaft 31 are perpendicular, allowing the mop handle 1 to rotate along the length of the mop body 2 via the second adapter shaft 31, or to rotate around the first adapter shaft 32 along the width of the mop body 2.

[0069] In fact, the adapter 21 in this patent includes a left seat 211 and a right seat 212. Both the left seat 211 and the right seat 212 are provided with sliding cavities 213, and guide blocks 22 are movably disposed within the sliding cavities 213. The adapter block 3 is provided between the left seat 211 and the right seat 212, and the two ends of the first adapter shaft 32 respectively pass through the guide blocks 22 in the left seat 211 and the right seat 212. (Reference) Figure 4 , 5As shown, the slide body 2 has two raised arched protrusions. The arched protrusions are hollow and have the sliding cavity 213 formed in them. The two arched protrusions have opposite openings. The first adapter shaft 32 passes through the openings of the two arched protrusions to achieve a rotatable connection between the first adapter shaft 32 and the left seat 211 and the right seat 212.

[0070] The connector 11 is also provided with a locking groove 12, which is located on one side of the connector 11. Its shape is adapted to the left seat 211 or the right seat 212. The locking groove 12 faces the length direction of the mop body 2 and is aligned with the left seat 211 or the right seat 212. Whether it faces the left seat 211 or the right seat 212 depends on whether the locking groove 12 is located on the left or right side of the connector 11. When the mop handle 1 rotates in the length direction of the mop body 2 and abuts against the mop body 2, the locking groove 12 is fastened to the outside of the adapter 21 to restrict the rotation of the mop handle 1 in the length direction of the mop body 2. It should be noted that the flat mop in this patent has a working state and a folded state. In the folded state, the mop handle 1 rotates in the length direction of the mop body 2 to abut against the mop body 2. In the working state, the mop handle 1 rotates in the length direction of the mop body 2 to be perpendicular to the mop body 2. When the mop handle 1 rotates along the length of the mop body 2, causing the mop handle 1 to abut against the mop body 2, the locking groove 12 will engage with the adapter 21 because it is aligned with and compatible with the left or right seat 211 or right seat 212 on one side of the adapter 21. Figure 3 As shown, at this time, the mop handle 1 can be restricted from rotating in the length direction of the mop body 2 by engaging the locking groove 12 with the left seat 211 or the right seat 212, thereby positioning the mop handle 1 in a folded state.

[0071] Furthermore, the outer edge of the adapter block 3 is provided with an arc-shaped sliding surface 33, and the arc-shaped sliding surface 33 is provided with a plurality of positioning grooves. The other side of the connector 11 is provided with a top block 13, and the inner end of the top block 13 is provided with a first elastic element 14 that drives the top block 13 to move outward. The other end of the top block 13 abuts against the sliding surface 33 of the adapter block 3, which is used to restrict the mop rod 1 from rotating in the width direction of the mop body 2 when the mop rod 1 rotates and the top block 13 abuts against the positioning groove.

[0072] The connector 11 has a partition layer 15 formed by a partition plate, and the partition layer 15 is provided with the top block 13 and the first elastic member 14. The adapter block 3 has a sliding surface 33 arranged along the length direction of the slide body 2. In this embodiment, the positioning groove includes at least a first positioning groove 34 and a second positioning groove 35, combined with Figure 3 , 4As shown, the corresponding working state and folded state of the flat mop are as follows: when the top block 13 abuts against the first positioning groove 34, the mop handle 1 is placed vertically on the mop body 2; when the top block 13 abuts against the second positioning groove 35, the mop handle 1 is placed horizontally on the mop body 2, and the locking groove 12 is fastened to the outside of the adapter 21. The top block 13 has a top head 131 at its end. The top head 131 has an arc surface, and the first positioning groove 34 and the second positioning groove 35 are both arc grooves. When the mop handle 1 rotates, the top head 131 on the top block 13 slides along the sliding surface 33. When the top head 131 slides into the first positioning groove 34 or the second positioning groove 35, the first elastic member 14 pushes the top head 131 on the top block 13 into the first positioning groove 34 or the second positioning groove 35 to achieve positioning. The user can push the mop body 2 to make the top block 13 overcome the first elastic member 14 and disengage from the first positioning groove 34 or the second positioning groove 35 to rotate the mop handle 1.

[0073] When the mop handle 1 rotates along the length of the mop body 2 and abuts against the mop body 2, the locking groove 12 is fastened to the left seat 211 of the adapter 21, and the top block 13 abuts against the second positioning groove 35. At this time, the rotation of the mop handle 1 along the length and width of the mop body 2 can be restricted by the positioning groove and the locking groove 12, thereby achieving complete positioning of the mop body 2, so as to facilitate the rinsing, storage and transportation of the flat mop.

[0074] Furthermore, the sliding cavity 213 is also provided with a second elastic element 25 that pushes the guide block 22 against the adapter block 3. A guide portion is provided between the guide block 22 and the adapter block 3 for rotating the mop handle 1 in the width direction of the mop body 2 when the guide block 22 abuts against the adapter block 3. The second elastic element 25 includes a spring that abuts against the guide block 22 and the left seat 211 and right seat 212.

[0075] The guide section includes:

[0076] A first annular surface 231 is disposed on the guide block 22; the first annular surface 231 includes a plurality of first protrusions 232 and first concave points 233 arranged sequentially, and a first continuous inclined surface 234 is provided between the first protrusions 232 and the first concave points 233; and

[0077] The second annular surface 235 is disposed on the adapter block 3. The second annular surface 235 includes a plurality of second protrusions 236 and second concave points 237 arranged in sequence. A second continuous inclined surface 238 is provided between the second protrusions 236 and the second concave points 237.

[0078] Combination Figure 5 , 6As shown, in this embodiment, two first protrusions 232 and two first concave points 233 are provided on the first annular surface 231, spaced apart. The angle between the first protrusions 232 and the first concave points 233 is 90 degrees, so that the two first protrusions 232 and the two first concave points 233 are respectively distributed at the four corners of the first annular surface 231. Similarly, two second protrusions 236 and two second concave points 237 are provided on the first annular surface 231, spaced apart on the second annular surface 235. The angle between the second protrusions 236 and the second concave points 237 is 90 degrees, so that the two second protrusions 236 and the two second concave points 237 are respectively distributed at the four corners of the second annular surface 235. The surfaces of the first protrusions 232, second protrusions 236, first concave points 233, and second concave points 237 all have a certain curvature.

[0079] In this embodiment, when the mop handle 1 is opened and perpendicular to the mop body 2, that is... Figure 6 As shown, the first protrusion 232 and the second protrusion 236 are arranged opposite each other. When the second elastic member 25 pushes the guide block 22, since the first protrusion 232, the second protrusion 236, the first concave point 233, and the second concave point 237 all have a certain curvature, the first protrusion 232 and the second protrusion 236 will be unstable against each other, causing the first protrusion 232 to slide into the second concave point 237 along the second continuous inclined surface 238 until... Figure 7 In the state shown, the adapter block 3 rotates 90 degrees in the width direction of the mop body 2, becoming parallel to the mop body 2. Because the second elastic element 25 continuously drives the first protrusion 232 to abut against the second protrusion 236, the adapter block 3 always tends to rotate in the width direction of the mop body 2. This tendency ensures that when the user operates the flat mop, the mop body 2 always flips inwards and not outwards, preventing it from interfering with the normal operation of the flat mop and enhancing the user experience.

[0080] Furthermore, the support plate 24 is provided with a left limiting block 241 and a right limiting block 242 located in the left seat 211 and the right seat 212 respectively. The left limiting block 241 and the right limiting block 242 form a slide table 243 for mounting the guide block 22, providing installation space for the left limiting block 241 and the right limiting block 242.

[0081] In this embodiment, the main body 2 of the pallet has retractable functional components on both the left and right sides, allowing it to be used as three tools simultaneously. It should be noted that in actual production, functional components can be designed on only one side, or identical functional components can be set on both sides, allowing the flatbed pallet to be used as two tools. In this embodiment, the functional components include a brush body 5 and a scraper body 6.

[0082] In this application, the first annular surface 231 and the second annular surface 235 do not lock the mop body at a set angle, but rather allow the mop body to tend to return to a set posture. During normal use, different people have different habits and body heights. Some people are accustomed to using the mop at a 30-degree angle horizontally, while others are accustomed to using it at a 45-degree angle. At these angles, the first annular surface 231 and the second annular surface 235 will separate, but the spring ensures that the first annular surface 231 and the second annular surface 235 always have a tendency to engage. Simultaneously, when the mop is lifted, it means that the external force applied by the user is gone, and the spring causes the mop body to return to the set posture, rather than swinging arbitrarily. Even slight back-and-forth swaying during the lifting process will not affect the return of the mop body. This set posture can be set to the usage posture of the brush body 5 and the scraper body 6. When the mop body is lifted, it automatically switches to the usage state of the brush body 5 and the scraper body 6. If the mop body 2 swings arbitrarily, the usage posture of the brush body 5 and the scraper body 6 is extremely unstable and impractical. When the mop head area at the bottom of the mop body needs to be used, simply press down on the mop body with a certain amount of force to make it rotate, separating the first ring surface 231 and the second ring surface 235. The spring force can be set to a relatively low setting, depending on the comfort level during use.

[0083] The push rod enables the mop body to switch postures, and the push rod and related components constitute a posture switching mechanism. Specifically, the push rod 101 is movably disposed within the receiving cavity 102 of the mop body 2, with at least one end protruding outside the receiving cavity 102; by pressing the receiving cavity 102, the posture of the mop body 2 can be switched, that is, the extension or retraction of the brush body 5 and the scraper body 6 can be controlled.

[0084] The slide body 2 has a receiving cavity 102. In addition to the push rod 101, the receiving cavity 102 also has a control rod 103, one end of which is hinged to the push rod 101 and the other end is connected to a functional component. In this embodiment, there are two sets of control rods 103, which are respectively connected to the brush body 5 and the scraper body 6, and there are two control rods in each set. This makes the extension or retraction of the functional component smoother and more sensitive.

[0085] The cavity 102 has a protruding positioning shaft 121, and the control rod 103 is hinged to the positioning shaft 121, so that the control rod 103 swings around the positioning shaft 121; moving the push rod 101 drives the control rod 103 to extend or retract the functional component into the cavity 102.

[0086] The slide body 2 also has at least a storage cavity 109 located at both ends of the receiving cavity 102; the push rod 101 has a pressing part 111 at its end, which extends movably into the storage cavity 109. Specifically, when the upper end of the push rod 101 protrudes from the storage cavity 109, the functional component extends out of the receiving cavity 102; when the lower end of the push rod 101 protrudes from the storage cavity 109, the functional component retracts into the receiving cavity 102. Furthermore, when switching the posture of the slide body 2, only the pressing part 111 at the end of the push rod 101 needs to be pressed. The design of the pressing part 111 makes switching the posture of the slide body 2 easier. At the same time, the design of the storage cavity 109 can also protect the pressing part 111 and prevent the exposed part of the push rod 101 from being too long.

[0087] The length of the push rod 101 is greater than the length of the slide body 2; when the push rod 101 moves to one side, the push rod 101 drives the control rod 103 to cause the functional component to extend out of the receiving cavity 102; when the push rod 101 moves to the other side, the push rod 101 drives the control rod 103 to cause the functional component to retract into the receiving cavity 102.

[0088] The functional component has a connecting portion on its inner side; an elastic element 107 is provided inside the receiving cavity 102, the end of which is fixedly connected to the connecting portion; when the functional component extends out of the receiving cavity 102, the elastic element 107 has a tendency to retract the functional component into the receiving cavity 102. When the functional component extends out of the receiving cavity 102 and needs to change its posture, the elastic element 107 pulls the functional component, causing the functional component to reset and retract into the receiving cavity 102.

[0089] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the inner side of the brush body 105 is the first connecting part 151, and the inner side of the scraper body 6 is the second connecting part 161. The elastic element 107 is disposed at both ends of the receiving cavity 102, and the two ends of the elastic element 107 are respectively connected to the first connecting part 151 and the second connecting part 161.

[0090] The control lever 103 has an abutment portion 131 at its end, which abuts against the inner side of the functional component. When the functional component extends out of the receiving cavity 102, the top surface of the abutment portion 131 abuts against the functional component and inhibits the tendency of the functional component to retract into the receiving cavity 102. When the front end of the push rod 101 extends out of the receiving cavity 109, the functional component extends out of the receiving cavity 102, and the top surface of the abutment portion 131 presses against the inner side of the functional component, keeping the functional component in the extended state. In this state, the elastic member 107's tendency to retract the functional component into the receiving cavity 102 cannot release the functional component from the extended state. Therefore, the abutment portion 131 can maintain the extended state of the functional component. When the pressing portion 111 is pressed, the functional component can be released from the extended state and retracted into the receiving cavity 102 under the action of the elastic member 107.

[0091] A reinforcing plate 108 is provided inside the accommodating cavity 102, and a recessed groove 181 is formed at its end; the control rod 103 abuts against the recessed groove 181 and moves on the recessed groove 181. The reinforcing plate 108 can improve the structural strength of the mop body, and the design of the recessed groove 181 prevents the control rod 103 from shaking and falling off.

[0092] The control rod 103 and the push rod 101 are hinged together by a rotating shaft 104. The hinge hole between the control rod 103 and the rotating shaft 104 is a slotted hole, or the hinge hole between the control rod 103 and the positioning shaft 121 is a slotted hole. The design of at least one slotted hole allows the push rod 101 to smoothly drive the control rod 103 when it moves in a straight line.

[0093] Preferably, a guide groove 112 is provided in the middle of the push rod 101, and a guide protrusion 122 is provided inside the slide plate body; the guide groove 112 of the push rod 101 is fitted onto the guide protrusion; both the guide groove and the guide protrusion are arranged along the length direction of the push rod 101. This can effectively guide the movement direction of the push rod 101.

[0094] Preferably, side wing plates 113 extend downward from both sides of the guide groove 112, and the two side wing plates are respectively disposed on both sides of the guide protrusion; the lower end surfaces of the two side wing plates abut against the inner wall of the accommodating cavity 102 and support the push rod 101. The friction between the push rod 101 and the slide body is reduced, which facilitates pushing.

Example 2

[0096] Figure 8 This is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of Embodiment 2. For example... Figure 8 As shown, Embodiment 2 is basically the same as Embodiment 1, except that in Embodiment 2, the inner side of the functional component is provided with a sliding groove 152, and the outer end of the control rod 103 is slidably mounted on the sliding groove 152 by a pin. Furthermore, Embodiment 2 does not include an elastic element 107; during reset, manual reset is achieved by pushing the pressing part 111, and the control rod 103 is forcibly pulled back to the functional component, preventing jamming.

[0097] The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape, and principle of the present invention should be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
