Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of dust collection equipment, and in particular to a cleaning module of a handheld dust collector. Background Art
[0002] A vacuum cleaner is a device that uses a motor to drive blades to rotate rapidly, creating negative air pressure within a sealed housing, thereby sucking in dust. As is known from the prior art, there are many types of vacuum cleaners, and handheld vacuum cleaners are a major category among them. To facilitate user convenience, these vacuum cleaners are compact in size. For example, a handheld vacuum cleaner disclosed in Authorization Publication No. CN103784081B can be referenced.
[0003] However, existing handheld vacuum cleaners mainly separate dust and airflow through a cyclone separation structure (with a filter). Therefore, after a period of use, the filter needs to be cleaned to ensure the dust collection effect. Nowadays, users need to disassemble the body of the handheld vacuum cleaner to clean the filter, which is very cumbersome. In addition, manual cleaning is prone to blind spots, which also reduces the cleaning effect and is not conducive to the long-term use of the vacuum cleaner.

[0051] In addition, the present invention also provides a method for using the cleaning module of a handheld vacuum cleaner, which uses the above-mentioned cleaning module and includes the following steps:
[0052] S1: Remove the dust nozzle assembly and fix it to the dust outlet through the second adapter, while making the first cleaning brush located in the dust collection chamber and in contact with the filter;
[0053] S2: Start the airflow generating assembly and form a second airflow, which flows from the inside of the filter to the outside of the filter to clean the filter and discharge impurities from the dust exhaust chamber;
[0054] S3: In step S2, the electromagnetic structure is energized to attract the inner shaft of the transmission rod to approach the transmission groove until the transmission limit block is engaged with the transmission limit groove;
[0055] S4: When step S3 is completed, the airflow generating assembly controls the rotation of the worm, and uses the worm to control the rotation of the worm wheel. When the worm wheel rotates, the second rotating shaft drives the impeller to rotate, and introduces gas from the air inlet into the air inlet chamber, and then sends it into the spring chamber through the air delivery chamber;
[0056] S5: When the gas is fed into the spring chamber, the electromagnet is lifted up and the gas enters the gas transmission chamber. After the gas enters the jet chamber, the third airflow is ejected from the one-way jet nozzle in a direction tangential to the filter screen.
[0057] S6: Simultaneously with step S3, the worm gear controls the rotation of the second rotating shaft, and the third gear cooperates with the third spring to control the reciprocating lifting and lowering of the lifting rod, thereby driving the first body and the filter to rotate. When the filter rotates, the first cleaning brush scrubs the outer wall of the filter, and the third airflow blows the filter;
[0058] In any one of steps S3 to S6, the lifting rod moves back and forth, and the lifting shaft controls the first cleaning brush to move back and forth longitudinally to increase the brushing surface of the filter screen;
[0059] In any one of steps S3 to S6, the electromagnet rises and uses the control rod to control the second cleaning brush to leave the telescopic slot, and allows part of the brush strip of the second cleaning brush to pass through the filter. When the first body rotates, the second cleaning brush is used to clean the first cleaning brush.
[0060] The present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:
[0061] 1. The combination of the cyclone separation component and the dust nozzle component of the present invention forms a cleaning module, which can automatically clean the filter screen, so that the handheld vacuum cleaner has the functional advantage of "self-cleaning", thereby eliminating the need for manual cleaning by the user.
[0062] 2. When using the cleaning module of the present invention, the dust collection nozzle assembly can be disassembled first, and the impurities in the dust collection chamber can be poured out. Then, the dust collection nozzle assembly can be reinstalled on the body through the second adapter end (when vacuuming, the dust collection nozzle assembly is installed on the body through the first adapter end). In this way, the first cleaning brush on the dust collection nozzle assembly is located in the dust collection chamber. When cleaning is started, the drive structure controls the filter to rotate, and the first cleaning brush is used to scrub the filter in all directions, thereby ensuring a cleaning effect.
[0063] 2.1 When the filter is brushed, the airflow generating assembly generates a second airflow, which flows from the exhaust port to the dust discharge chamber of the dust collection nozzle assembly, thereby discharging impurities in the dust collection chamber.
[0064] 3. When in use, the cleaning module of the present invention can also generate a third airflow within the dust collection chamber. This third airflow and the second airflow are used to further enhance the cleaning effect. When the airflow generating component is activated, the electromagnetic structure links the airflow generating component with the driving structure. When the driving structure is synchronously activated by the airflow generating component, airflow is introduced into the dust collection chamber from the air inlet and ejected through the one-way air nozzle to generate the third airflow.
[0065] 3.1 The flow direction of the third airflow of the present invention is opposite to the rotation direction of the filter, thereby further improving the cleaning effect of the filter.
[0066] 4. In order to ensure the scrubbing effect of the first cleaning brush, the present invention also provides a second cleaning brush. The second cleaning brush can be used to clean the first cleaning brush to prevent excessive dust residue on the first cleaning brush from affecting the scrubbing effect of the filter.
[0067] 5. In order to improve the scrubbing effect of the first cleaning brush, the present invention can also control the first cleaning brush to move back and forth longitudinally when the driving structure is started, thereby improving the scrubbing effect, and the moving first cleaning brush can also cause its own dust to fall off, thereby facilitating cleaning.
[0068] 6. The driving structure and air intake structure of the present invention are activated by the airflow generating component, and no special driver (such as a motor, etc.) is required to control the driving structure or the air intake structure. Therefore, the manufacturing cost of the handheld vacuum cleaner can be controlled.
[0069] In addition, other advantages of the present invention will be demonstrated in the embodiment section of the present invention, thereby making the beneficial effects of the present invention more significant and prominent. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0137] 2. Self-cleaning principle: reference Figure 4-10 In this embodiment, the first adapter end (dust suction chamber) of the dust suction nozzle assembly is installed at the dust outlet position (reference Figure 4 ), at this time, the first cleaning brush is located in the middle cavity and contacts the filter screen. During the cleaning process, the electromagnet is energized and attracts the inner shaft to move close to the transmission groove, and causes the transmission limit block on the inner shaft to be stuck in the transmission limit groove of the transmission groove (a plurality of transmission limit grooves are arranged at intervals at the bottom of the transmission groove), so that the blades of the airflow generating assembly can transmit power to the worm through the transmission rod when starting;
[0138] After the electromagnet is energized, the airflow generating assembly is started by the cleaning button control, and the motor is used to control the blades to rotate counterclockwise, thereby generating a second airflow, which enters through the exhaust port and into the exhaust cavity and passes through the filter from the inside out to clean the filter;
[0139] In addition, when the blade rotates, the worm is synchronously controlled to rotate through the transmission rod, and drives the worm wheels on both sides of the worm to rotate. When the worm wheels rotate, the second shaft rotates, completing the power transmission;
[0140] When the second shaft rotates, the third gear is controlled to rotate and controls the lifting rod to rise or fall by cooperating with the rack. Figure 4For example, when the second shaft rotates, the third gear on the left side of the worm rotates and cooperates with the rack to control the first screw to rise through the lifting rod. When the third gear on the left side is separated from the rack, the lifting rod is controlled to fall through the third spring. The same applies to the movement of the second screw on the right side of the worm.
[0141] In this embodiment, the first screw and the second screw always move in opposite directions, that is, when the first screw rises, the second screw falls, and vice versa, when the second screw rises, the first screw falls; when the first screw rises, the second gear is driven to rotate counterclockwise by cooperating with the first screw and the driven nut, and the first body and the filter screen are driven to rotate clockwise by the first gear. At this time, the second screw is in a descending state, so there will be an action of driving the right nut to rotate clockwise. However, since the first body rotates clockwise at this time, it will drive the right nut to rotate counterclockwise. Therefore, a one-way rotation structure is set between the lifting rod and the screw (refer to Figure 6 ), when the first screw rises and the second screw falls (or when the second screw rises and the first screw falls), the second screw can be rotated clockwise through the one-way rotation structure to ensure smooth lifting and lowering of the first screw and the second screw, and to ensure that the filter can always rotate clockwise.
[0142] When the first body rotates, the filter screen contacts the first cleaning brush and is scrubbed by the first cleaning brush to complete the cleaning. When the second shaft rotates, the impeller of the air intake structure is controlled to start and introduce external air into the filter screen. Figure 8-9 , the gas enters the air inlet chamber from the air inlet (a filter can be set at the general air inlet to prevent the introduction of impurities), and enters the spring chamber through the air supply chamber under the drive of the impeller. Because the airflow generated by the airflow generating assembly in this embodiment can flow from the top chamber, exhaust chamber, middle chamber and dust exhaust chamber, a negative pressure is formed in the exhaust chamber (that is, the top of the electromagnet), and the airflow from the air supply chamber into the spring chamber can lift the electromagnet and connect the driving chamber and the air supply chamber through the spring chamber. When the airflow enters the driving chamber, it is ejected through the one-way air nozzle. Figure 10 The airflow ejected from the one-way air nozzle flows obliquely from bottom to top, cleans the rotating filter 4a, and finally discharges the impurities from the dust exhaust cavity of the dust nozzle assembly, completing the self-cleaning work of the handheld vacuum cleaner.
[0143] It is worth mentioning that: in this embodiment, the connection point between the spring chamber and the drive chamber is aligned with the meshing point of the first gear and the second gear. Therefore, when the airflow enters the drive chamber from the spring chamber, the meshing point of the first gear and the second gear can be cleaned to prevent foreign matter from affecting the transmission effect of the two.
[0144] In this embodiment, when the first screw is lifted and lowered, the lifting shaft can be used to control the longitudinal reciprocating movement of the first cleaning brush. That is, when it is on the first screw, the first cleaning brush is driven to rise, and when the first screw is lowered, the first cleaning brush is controlled to fall by the second spring. The longitudinal reciprocating movement of the first cleaning brush can improve the cleaning effect of the filter.
[0145] Example 2 is different from Example 1 in that:
[0146] like Figure 11-13 As shown, in this embodiment: the jet structure includes:
[0147] The jet body 80 is installed in the middle cavity and is integrally formed with the body 10 and has a jet cavity (formed in the jet body 80, not shown in the figure);
[0148] The one-way air nozzle 81 is formed on the air jet body 80 and communicates with the air jet chamber, and can generate a third airflow tangential to the filter 4a; wherein the air jet chamber is communicated with the air transmission chamber (the driving chamber 50 in Example 1).
[0149] In this embodiment, the first body 31 is provided with a telescopic slot 90 on one side close to the filter screen 4a, and a second cleaning brush 91 is slidably connected to the telescopic slot 90. The second cleaning brush 91 is connected to the slot wall of the telescopic slot 90 via a sixth spring 92.
[0150] The first body 31 further includes a lifting cavity 93 formed on the first body 31 and communicating with each telescopic slot 90 . A control rod 94 having one end abutting (contacting) the electromagnet is slidably connected in the lifting cavity 93 . A plurality of protrusions 95 are fixedly connected to the control rod 94 .
[0151] refer to Figure 11-13 In order to ensure smooth jetting of the jet structure, the jet part of the jet structure is arranged on the side wall of the body (that is, the side wall of the middle cavity) in this embodiment. This prevents dust from accumulating at the bottom of the middle cavity and affecting the jetting. When jetting, the generated third airflow is tangent to the outer wall of the filter, which can better clean the filter. A more optimal setting is that the third airflow flows counterclockwise and the filter moves clockwise. The two are opposite to each other, which can further ensure the cleaning effect of the filter.
[0152] Moreover, in order to ensure the cleaning effect of the first cleaning brush on the filter, a second cleaning brush is also provided in this embodiment. When air enters the spring chamber, the electromagnet is lifted up, thereby driving the control rod to rise, and utilizing the protrusion to drive the brush bar of the second cleaning brush to pass through the filter. When the first body rotates, the second cleaning brush can be utilized to clean the first cleaning brush, thereby ensuring the cleaning effect of the first cleaning brush on the filter.
[0153] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
