Description

[0001] This application is a divisional application of Chinese patent application No. 202010075495.X and invention name “Drum and cleaning tool with the same”, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field

[0002] The invention relates to a cleaning device, in particular to a cleaning head and a cleaning tool for cleaning dry garbage, wet garbage and mixed garbage including sticky garbage on a flat ground. Background Art

[0003] Usually people clean the floor with tools such as brooms, mops, floor wipes, etc. These tools mainly rely on people's manual operation to complete the cleaning work. With the advancement of technology, people's requirements for floor cleaning tools are gradually increasing.

[0004] The first to appear was the vacuum cleaner, whose working principle is "air-dust circulation", that is, it relies on electricity to generate negative pressure to absorb garbage, dust, etc. on the ground. However, due to the limitations of its working principle, the vacuum cleaner cannot clean some garbage and stains that are firmly attached to the ground. Once liquid enters the vacuum cleaner, it is easy to cause damage to the vacuum cleaner. Therefore, a new floor cleaner has now appeared. The new floor cleaner drives the cleaning cylinder (cleaning roller) to wipe the ground through the operation of the motor. The cleaning cylinder usually uses a sponge cylinder or a scouring pad. At the same time, the floor cleaner will also be equipped with a water supply system and a sink to clean the cleaning cylinder, thereby perfectly cleaning the ground. The cleaned sponge cylinder usually uses a water squeezing piece to remove the water inside, otherwise the water will flow to the ground when the sponge cylinder is squeezed against the ground.

[0005] Generally speaking, the cleaning ability of a floor cleaner is related to the thickness of the sponge tube. The thicker the sponge tube, the stronger its cleaning ability. However, through actual operation, it is found that if the ordinary sponge tube is set too thick, the squeezing part cannot squeeze out the sewage inside it, causing pollution inside the sponge tube. If it is set too thin, it will wear quickly and have a short life. In addition, the water absorption capacity is insufficient and the ability to clean the stains on the bottom surface is insufficient. Therefore, it is difficult to determine the appropriate thickness of the sponge layer.

[0006] For this reason, some people have proposed a roller design with a double sponge layer. The inner layer uses a non-absorbent sponge, and the outer layer uses an absorbent sponge. However, the double sponge layer is easy to delaminate during use, and the service life is short.

[0007] During the squeezing process by the squeezing member, the squeezed water is not easy to control and can easily overflow from the cleaning head.

[0008] The contents of the background technology section are merely the technologies known to the public and do not necessarily represent the existing technologies in the field. Summary of the invention

[0059] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present invention, and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0060] The present invention relates to a roller and a cleaning tool with the roller, the cleaning tool is used for cleaning the floor, especially a smooth and flat small-area floor, such as a home and kitchen floor. The cleaning tool is particularly suitable for cleaning mixed garbage containing dry garbage, wet garbage and sticky materials such as noodles, porridge, ketchup and the like.

[0061] The dry garbage mentioned in the present disclosure specifically refers to granular garbage, such as fruit peels, melon seed shells, rice grains, paper scraps, etc.

[0062] Wet garbage refers to liquid garbage, such as water, beverages, etc.

[0063] Sticky garbage includes soups, stews, porridge and other garbage with a certain degree of viscosity.

[0064] Other garbage such as dust, ground marks, etc. are also cleaning objects disclosed in the present invention.

[0065] Figure 1 is a three-dimensional schematic diagram of an embodiment of the cleaning tool disclosed herein, Figure 2 This is an exploded view of the cleaning head; Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the internal structure of the cleaning head; Figure 4 is a cross-sectional schematic diagram, Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the bottom surface of the cleaning head. Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of the cleaning head from the side. Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the cleaning tool of the present disclosure includes a cleaning head and a handheld part connected to each other. The handheld part includes a cleaning rod 301 and an extension rod 302, and the cleaning rod 301 and the extension rod 302 are connected by a connecting structure 304. The cleaning rod 301 is connected to the cleaning head by a hinge structure 305. The operator drives the cleaning head to move on the ground surface through the handheld part to clean up various garbage scattered on the ground surface.

[0066] The cleaning head of the cleaning tool disclosed herein comprises a housing 500, a cleaning module is installed at the bottom of the housing and inside the housing, and the cleaning module separates the garbage from the ground and separates it inside the housing. Wheels 190 are installed on the bottom surface of the housing to reduce the contact between the non-cleaning module and the ground, making dragging more labor-saving.

[0067] The cleaning module includes a sweeping unit 110 arranged at the bottom of the shell, a squeezing unit 120 arranged in parallel with the sweeping unit, a dry garbage collecting unit 150 arranged behind the sweeping unit for storing dry garbage, a cleaning unit 130 arranged at the entrance of the dry garbage collecting unit 150, a sewage collecting unit 140 and a clean water supply unit 160.

[0068] The sweeping unit 110 includes a roller 111, a shovel bar 112, a roller driving mechanism 113 and a roller transmission mechanism 114. The roller driving mechanism drives the roller 111 to move in a Figure 4 The shovel bar 112 is fixed on the housing 500 and has an arc-shaped working surface. A gap with a uniform distance is formed between the arc-shaped working surface and the outer circumference of the roller 111.

[0069] The roller 111 includes an inner hard rubber shaft and a sponge layer wrapped outside the hard rubber shaft. The end of the hard rubber shaft can be fixed to the housing 500 through a bearing or other connecting piece. The roller driving mechanism 113 drives the hard rubber shaft to rotate around its axis through the roller transmission mechanism 114, driving the sponge layer to rotate, so that the surface of the sponge layer performs a circular motion.

[0070] When the drum 111 rolls over the ground, the dry garbage particles on the ground compress and deform the sponge layer, and the sponge layer wraps the dry garbage particles through deformation, so that the dry garbage particles are separated from the ground and rotate with the drum 111. When the drum 111 reaches the position of the shovel bar 112, the dry garbage particles leave the ground and are squeezed by the shovel bar 112, and continue to rotate with the drum 111. When the drum 111 passes the shovel bar 112 and reaches the entrance of the dry garbage collection unit 150, the sponge layer 111b recovers and deforms due to the loss of the pressure of the shovel bar 112, releasing the dry garbage particles wrapped in the sponge layer and bouncing into the dry garbage collection unit 150.

[0071] The axis of the squeezing unit 120 is arranged parallel to the roller 111, and can be fixed to the housing 500 at both ends, or fixed to the housing 500 by a snap-fit ​​structure. The hardness of the squeezing unit 120 is much greater than the hardness of the sponge layer 111b. The distance between the squeezing unit 120 and the axis of the roller 111 is less than the sum of the radii of the two, so that after assembly, the squeezing unit 120 squeezes the surface of the roller. A squeezing area B is formed at the position where the squeezing unit 120 faces the roller 111.

[0072] Figure 7 It is a schematic diagram of the formation of the water squeeze zone. Figure 7 As shown, the squeezing unit 120 interferes with the drum 111, and squeezes the sponge layer 111b of the drum at the interference point. In the figure, the drum 111 rotates clockwise, and a squeezing area B is formed below the squeezing unit 120 in the figure. The water carried on the drum sponge layer 111b flows out after squeezing and is collected by the sewage collection unit 140. After the drum passes the wet garbage, the sponge layer continues to rotate clockwise with the wet garbage. On the drum, the sponge layer between the grounding point M (the position in contact with the ground) and the squeezing point N (the position in contact with the squeezing unit 120) contains sewage. After being squeezed by the squeezing unit 120, the sewage leaves the sponge layer in the squeezing area B and is collected by the sewage collection unit 140, so that the water content of the sponge layer passing through the squeezing point N is unsaturated. When it rotates to the M point again and contacts the ground, it can continue to absorb water. In this way, the cleaning tool can continuously absorb the accumulated water on the ground to avoid the sponge being saturated and unable to absorb water effectively.

[0073] The cleaning tool of the present disclosure further includes a clean water supply unit 160. The clean water supply unit 160 directly or indirectly delivers clean water to the sponge layer 111b. The clean water enters the sponge layer and overflows from the sponge layer when squeezed by the squeezing unit 120, peeling off the dirt attached to the surface of the sponge layer 111b, thereby cleaning the surface of the drum.

[0074] When the roller rolls over the sticky garbage on the ground, the sticky garbage adheres to the surface of the sponge layer 111b. The clean water provided by the clean water supply unit 160 washes away the sticky garbage layer attached to the surface of the sponge layer 111b.

[0075] In order to keep the sponge layer relatively dry after squeezing, the clean water supply unit 160 sets the clean water outlet in the squeezing area. In the squeezing area, the sponge layer 111b absorbs clean water and becomes saturated. After being squeezed by the squeezing unit 120, the wet garbage and water locked in the sponge layer and absorbed from the ground are discharged. The process of liquid discharge takes away the sticky garbage on the surface of the sponge layer 111b, so that the surface of the sponge layer 111b remains clean. Therefore, the present disclosure can clean the surface of the roller brush 111 without the operator having to do it or interrupt the cleaning work. In the process of pushing the roller, the surface of the roller brush in contact with the ground is clean.

[0076] The present disclosure further includes a cleaning unit 130. The cleaning unit 130 is disposed above the entrance of the dry garbage collection unit 150. When the surface of the drum rotates past the upper end of the shovel bar and reaches the entrance of the dry garbage collection unit 150, the solid garbage attached to its surface cannot be separated from the sponge layer 111b by the elasticity and self-weight of the sponge, and the cleaning unit 130 scrapes it off. The scraped garbage falls under the action of its own weight and falls into the dry garbage collection unit 150. The cleaning unit 130 is particularly suitable for some light and small garbage that is easy to adhere, such as paper pieces. The cleaning unit 130 keeps the surface of the sponge layer 111b free of dry garbage.

[0077] The cleaning tool of the present disclosure further includes a water circulation module 200, which includes a sewage collection unit 140 and a clean water supply unit 160 connected by pipelines. Sewage is squeezed out of the drum 111, and the squeezed sewage is collected in the sewage collection unit 140 through the pipeline, and enters the clean water supply unit 160 after purification, and is recycled again, and sprayed to the above-mentioned squeezing area again to clean the roller brush.

[0078] The beneficial effects of the present disclosure are:

[0079] When the present invention is used to clean the floor, the wet outer sponge contacts the floor without raising dust on the floor, and has the effect of a common mop, thereby preventing secondary pollution.

[0080] The outer sponge and the shovel bar cooperate with each other to completely collect solid waste;

[0081] The cleaning unit separates and collects the solid waste attached to the outer sponge, and keeps the surface of the outer sponge free of solid waste;

[0082] The drum absorbs wet garbage on the ground. When the water inside is squeezed out, the sticky garbage attached to the drum surface is peeled off and diluted. The water-soluble part is taken into the sewage tank, and the water-insoluble part is peeled off from the drum and enters the solid garbage tank, so that the sticky garbage can be processed and the dry and wet garbage can be separated.

[0083] The squeezing unit squeezes out the liquid locked in the outer sponge to keep the outer sponge unsaturated, so that the cleaning tool can continuously clean up the liquid garbage;

[0084] The clean water supply unit and the squeezing unit work together to keep the drum in contact with the ground always clean. Therefore, the present invention can clean sticky garbage, especially a mixture of various garbage, and can separate dry and wet garbage, and continuously keep the outer sponge surface of the drum clean.

[0085] The various components and the combination relationship of the components disclosed in the present invention are not unique, and are described one by one below.

[0086] Embodiment of the drum

[0087] Figure 8 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a drum structure according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 8 As shown, the roller includes a hard rubber shaft 111c located at the axis center and a sponge layer 111b wrapped and fixed on the circumferential surface of the hard rubber shaft.

[0088] The density and hardness of the sponge have a direct impact on the water absorption and water storage rate (also known as water lock). When the density of the sponge increases to a certain extent, the water absorption will decrease, the hardness will increase, and the water storage rate will increase; conversely, when the density of the sponge decreases, the water absorption will increase, the hardness will decrease, and the water storage rate will decrease.

[0089] The roller of this embodiment has only one sponge layer, and the sponge layer 111b is made of polyvinylalcohol (PVA) foam. The density of PVA sponge is 0.25-0.5g / cm3, and the water absorption rate is 0.5-1.5g / cm3. The Shore A hardness of PVA sponge is 40-70. The water storage rate of PVA sponge is 0.2-1.0g / cm3. The sponge layer of the present disclosure has the above characteristics, so compared with the existing single-layer ordinary sponge roller, it has better effects:

[0090] The sponge layer has both suitable water absorption performance and water storage rate, as well as suitable density and hardness. This allows the sponge to deform just right during the mopping process, wrapping the garbage particles, and when turning past the restriction of the shovel bar, it can use its own elasticity to eject most of the garbage particles, detaching them from the sponge layer and dropping them into the dry garbage collection unit, without missing anything. Moreover, when dealing with accumulated water on the ground, the sponge can absorb more water, leaving less water on the mopped bottom surface.

[0091] The sponge layer disclosed in the present invention will not cause the double-layer sponge to be squeezed and separated from each other, thereby reducing the life of the roller.

[0092] The thickness of the sponge layer of the present invention is generally 3-15 mm, and its deformation is sufficient to wrap common granular garbage. The household cleaning tool is equipped with a 5-10 mm thick sponge layer to handle common dry garbage on the household floor.

[0093] The diameter of the roller disclosed in the present invention can be as small as 15 mm or as large as 700 mm.

[0094] For example, a 3mm thick sponge layer is attached to the outside of a solid hard rubber shaft with a diameter of 9mm and assembled into the above-mentioned cleaning tool. It can process dry garbage with small particle size and is used in relatively clean places such as exhibition centers and museums.

[0095] The drum with a diameter of 700mm is generally used outdoors or in places where there are large dry garbage particles.

[0096] On the surface of the drum, a spiral protrusion may be provided, which may be referred to as a first spiral protrusion 111f. Figure 8As shown, there is one spiral protrusion extending from one end of the roller to the other end. In other embodiments, there may be two spiral protrusions, with the same pitch, extending from opposite sides of one end of the roller to the other end of the roller. That is, the starting ends of the two spiral protrusions are located on the same generatrix of the roller. In other embodiments, the arrangement of the two spiral protrusions may be different, such as Fig.14 As shown, two first spiral protrusions 111f start from the same generatrix at both ends of the roller and extend toward the middle in opposite spiral directions. At the proximity of the two spiral protrusions, that is, the middle part of the roller 111, a linear protrusion 111h parallel to the axial direction is provided, and the linear protrusion 111h is connected to the two first spiral protrusions 111f.

Figures 8 to 12 As shown, one end of the hard rubber shaft includes a connecting shaft, and the other end is a hollow cylinder.

[0098] One end of the driving motor 113a is fixed to the cleaning head through a fixing seat 113e and a rotating shaft 113c, and the other end can rotate around the rotating shaft at a certain angle. One hollow end of the hard rubber shaft 111c is sleeved on the motor, and this end abuts against the driving motor 113a. The other end of the hard rubber shaft is fixed to a pressing and telescopic device on the cleaning head. The pressing and telescopic device 113f includes parts such as a button, a spring, and a block. When the button is stressed, the compression spring drives the block to move away from the position that abuts against the hard rubber shaft. At this time, the end of the hard rubber shaft 111c can be moved out of the roller mounting slot on the cleaning head housing, and the other end drives the driving motor 113a therein to rotate around the rotating shaft 113c, forming a Fig.12 , 13 The roller 111 can be removed by pulling the roller out of the motor. When the button of the telescopic device is pressed, the block retracts, and when the button is released, the block resets. The reverse operation can be performed to install the roller on the cleaning head. Alternatively, the telescopic device is set on the roller, and when the button is pressed, the spring drives the block to retract and push out from the concave part of the cleaning head housing of the block, so that the roller is freed from the restraint of the cleaning head, and the roller can be easily taken out at this time.

[0099] When a secondary water tank for receiving overflow of sewage is provided between the drum and the extrusion unit, in order to prevent the sewage inlet of the secondary water tank from being blocked, a protrusion 111y (such as Fig.14As shown), the drum rotates and the protrusion 111y sweeps the sewage inlet.

[0100] The roller disclosed in the present invention can also be made into a structure with both ends blocked, and the driving motor is connected to the roller through a connecting piece to drive the roller to rotate. The cleaning tool with the roller driving motor can reduce the operator's thrust on the cleaning tool, which is suitable for operators with insufficient strength.

[0101] The spiral protrusion on the drum can guide the sewage squeezed out of the extrusion unit to a designated location along the thread direction, such as the suction nozzle of a sewage pipe, so as to prevent the sewage from overflowing and causing secondary pollution of the bottom surface.

[0102] In the present disclosure, solid garbage is swept into the garbage box by the drum, and liquid garbage is adsorbed by the drum and then squeezed out into the water tank for treatment. In the whole process, water can circulate multiple times, and garbage (dust) is successfully cleaned. The present disclosure refers to this technology as "water-dust circulation" cleaning technology.

[0103] The present invention utilizes the "water-dust circulation" cleaning technology to achieve self-cleaning of the drum, and combines sweeping, mopping, washing and twisting together, which greatly facilitates the user and can achieve a very good cleaning effect.

[0104] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present disclosure and is not intended to limit the present disclosure. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present disclosure should be included in the protection scope of the present disclosure.

[0105] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present disclosure and is not intended to limit the present disclosure. Although the present disclosure is described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or replace some of the technical features therein by equivalents. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present disclosure shall be included in the protection scope of the present disclosure.
