Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of cleaning appliance technology, and in particular to a cleaning device that prevents leaks during installation. Background Technology

[0002] Cleaning equipment uses suction to remove fluids carrying dirt, assisting manual cleaning. Taking a vacuum cleaner as an example, a vacuum cleaner includes a separation device (also called a filter). This device filters the dirty fluid and stores the filtered dust, large particles, and other debris. The dust bag is a common separation device in vacuum cleaners. After the fluid enters the dust bag, dust and large particles are trapped and temporarily stored inside, while the filtered, cleaner fluid flows out of the dust bag through its vents.

[0003] Dust bags can hold a large amount of waste, and once they reach a certain capacity, they can be discarded and replaced with new ones, making waste removal convenient. However, there is a problem of missing dust bags when replacing them. If a dust bag is missing, the cleaning equipment will not be able to filter and separate the dust-laden airflow. When the cleaning equipment is turned on, more dust will be drawn in, which will affect the motor and increase the difficulty of cleaning the waste inside the equipment. Summary of the Invention

[0111] To make the technical solutions and beneficial effects of this disclosure more apparent and understandable, a detailed description is provided below by citing specific embodiments. The accompanying drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale, and local features may be enlarged or reduced to more clearly show the details of the local features; unless otherwise defined, the technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meanings as those in the technical field to which this application pertains.

[0112] In the description of this disclosure, the terms “center,” “longitudinal,” “lateral,” “length,” “width,” “thickness,” “height,” “up,” “down,” “front,” “back,” “left,” “right,” “vertical,” “horizontal,” “top,” “bottom,” “inner,” “outer,” “clockwise,” and “counterclockwise” indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are used only for the purpose of simplifying the description of this disclosure and are not intended to indicate that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. In other words, they should not be construed as limitations on this disclosure.

[0113] In this disclosure, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating the relative importance of the indicated features or the number of indicated technical features. Therefore, a feature specified as "first" or "second" may explicitly include at least one of that feature. In the description of this disclosure, "multiple" means at least two, such as two, three, etc.; "several" means at least one, such as one, two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0114] In this disclosure, unless otherwise expressly defined, the terms "installation," "connection," "linking," "fixing," "setting," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, "connection" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; it can also refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this disclosure according to the specific circumstances.

[0115] In this disclosure, unless otherwise expressly specified, the terms "above," "on top of," "above," "over," "below," "below," "below," or "below" can refer to the first and second features being in direct contact, or to the first and second features being in indirect contact through an intermediate medium.

Similarly, "below," "below," and "below" can mean the first feature is directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.

[0116] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the cleaning equipment includes, but is not limited to, a vacuum cleaner, and "fluid" refers to a mixed fluid, which may refer to an airflow mixed with dust, garbage particles or debris.

[0117] Figure 1and Figure 2 A schematic diagram of a canister vacuum cleaner is shown as an example.

[0118] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the cleaning equipment provided in this embodiment includes a separation device 100 and a base 200, with the base 200 serving as a carrier for mounting the separation device 100. Figures 3 to 4a As shown, the separation device 100 includes: a dust cup 110 and a separation assembly located within the dust cup 110, the separation assembly including a cyclone separation assembly 120 and a dust bag separation assembly 140. Figure 4b (As shown) at least one of the following. The dust cup 110 has a first receiving space 110a, a first inlet 101 for fluid to enter the first receiving space 110a, and a first outlet 102 for fluid to flow out of the first receiving space 110a. Typically, the base 200 also serves as the mounting carrier for the drive unit 300. The drive unit 300 is used to provide a suction flow. After the suction flow enters the first receiving space 110a from the outside space through the first inlet 101, the separation device 100 traps solid dirt such as dust, hair, and large particles in the fluid, and the cleaner airflow flows out of the first receiving space 110a through the first outlet 102.

[0119] The separation device 100 is generally cylindrical. The base 200 has a general shape that is lower in the front and higher in the back. Here, "front" refers to the direction closer to the first inlet 101, and "back" refers to the direction farther away from the first inlet 101.

[0120] The separation device 100 is inclinedly mounted on the base 200. For a canister vacuum cleaner, the base 200 has an extension 206 protruding from the front of the separation device 100. When the cleaning equipment is impacted by an external force, the extension 206 can come into contact with the external force before the separation device 100, buffering the external force and reducing damage to the separation device 100, thus protecting the separation device 100.

[0121] Figure 1 and Figure 12 In the illustrated embodiment, the base 200 has protruding portions protruding from the separation device 100 on all sides, so that the base 200 can provide protection on all sides of the separation device 100, further ensuring the safety of the separation device 100.

[0122] The drive unit 300 includes a motor. In the embodiments disclosed herein, both the cyclone separator 120 and the dust bag separator 140 are detachably connected to the first receiving space 110a, allowing either the cyclone separator 120 or the dust bag separator 140 to be used individually or simultaneously. Based on this, the separation device 100 has at least two of a first usage mode, a second usage mode, and a third usage mode. Specifically, when the separation device 100 is in the first usage mode, the cyclone separator 120 is connected to the first receiving space 110a; when the separation device 100 is in the second usage mode, the dust bag separator 140 is connected to the first receiving space 110a; and when the separation device 100 is in the third usage mode, both the cyclone separator 120 and the dust bag separator 140 are connected to the first receiving space 110a.

[0123] In some alternative embodiments, the dust bag separating assembly 140 can be detachably connected to the first receiving space 110a, but the cyclone separating assembly 120 is fixed within the first receiving space 110a and cannot be detached. In this embodiment, after removing the dust bag separating assembly 140, the cleaning device can have a first usage mode. After installing the dust bag separating assembly 140, the cleaning device has a third usage mode. That is, in this embodiment, the cleaning device has a first usage mode and a third usage mode.

[0124] In the first usage mode, the cyclone separator 120 is reusable, which can effectively reduce the cost of use.

[0125] In the second and third usage modes, the detachable dust bag separation component 140 meets the requirements for large-capacity waste storage and convenient cleaning. Moreover, the third usage mode utilizes both the cyclone separation component 120 and the dust bag separation component 140 to separate the fluid, which improves the fluid separation effect and increases the utilization rate of the first containing space 110a.

[0126] In summary, in the cleaning equipment of this embodiment, the first accommodating space 110a is a shared space for the cyclone separation component 120 and the dust bag separation component 140. The cleaning equipment provides users with multiple usage modes, enabling a single cleaning equipment to simultaneously combine the advantages of both the dust bag separation component 140 and the cyclone separation component 120, thus enriching the usage scenarios of the cleaning equipment and improving the user experience.

[0127] In addition, the frequency of the first usage mode can be selected as needed. The higher the frequency of the first usage mode, the more beneficial it is to reduce the consumption of dust bags, thereby reducing the cost of use.

[0128] Optionally, the dust cup 110, the cyclone separator 120, and the dust bag separator 140 are generally coaxially distributed.

[0129] like Figure 6a As shown, the axis of the central portion 125 is approximately coincident with the axis of the dust cup 110 (meaning coincident or nearly coincident); and / or, the axis of the first inlet 101 is approximately parallel to the axis of the dust cup 110 (meaning parallel or nearly parallel).

[0130] The axis of the central portion 125 is approximately coincident with the axis of the dust cup 110, which reduces fluid flow loss in the first receiving space 110a and the cyclone cup 121, thereby improving cleaning efficiency.

[0131] The axis of the first inlet 101 is approximately parallel to the axis of the dust cup and is closer to the base 200. This structure allows the groove 109 in front of the first inlet 101 to mate with the protrusion 205 of the base 200 at the axis of the dust cup 110, making the fit more secure. Furthermore, the airflow entering from the first inlet 101 is more likely to flow towards the spiral surface 1226.

[0132] like Figure 3 and Figure 6b As shown, the first inlet 101 is located on the lower end face of the dust cup 110.

[0133] To obtain tangential acceleration, the first inlet is typically located on the side of the dust cup 110. However, since an additional connecting pipe is needed to connect the first inlet to the external space, placing the first inlet on the side of the dust cup 110 results in a long connecting pipe, significant fluid velocity loss, and a complex structure. In this embodiment, the first inlet 101 is located on the lower end face of the dust cup 110, which shortens the length of the connecting pipe from the lower end face of the dust cup 110 to the side of the dust cup 110, thus reducing fluid velocity loss. Figures 2 to 4b As shown, the dust cup 110 is generally cylindrical with generally cylindrical sidewalls. The dust cup 110 is mounted at an angle on the base 200, with its sides and ends (the bottom end shown in the figure) in contact with the base 200. This tilting design reduces the obstruction of the base 200 on the lower end face of the dust cup 110, making it easier to install the first inlet 101 on the lower end face of the dust cup 110 and facilitating the installation of the connecting pipe.

[0134] like Figure 3 As shown, the cleaning device also includes a suction port connector 103 and a main suction tube 104. One end of the suction port connector 103 is connected to the first inlet 101, and the other end of the suction port connector 103 is used to connect to the main suction tube 104. In practical applications, a flexible tube with a suction head can be connected to the inlet of the main suction tube 104 so that the suction head can be used to suck up dirt from the external space.

[0135] Combination Figure 1The suction port connector 103 is located on the extension 206 at the front of the base 200, which is one of the differences between a canister vacuum cleaner and a handheld vacuum cleaner. In this way, fluid can directly enter the dust cup 110 through the first inlet 101 via the extension 206.

[0136] Air mixed with dust, garbage particles or debris enters the suction port connector 103 sequentially from the suction head, hose and main suction pipe 104 under the suction force provided by the drive unit 300, and then enters the dust cup 110 through the first inlet 101.

[0137] In contrast, heavier components such as the motor and reel are located at the rear of the base 200. This arrangement makes the front of the entire cleaning equipment small and light. When the user attaches a hose at the first inlet 101, the cleaning equipment can more easily overcome steps, obstacles and other obstacles when the user drags the cleaning equipment through the hose.

[0138] For example, the main suction tube 104, the suction port connector 103, the hose, and the suction head can together form a connecting pipe connecting the first inlet 101 and the external space. Figure 3 It can be seen that the suction port connector 103 is a bent tube, and the first inlet 101 is set on the lower end face of the dust cup 110, which can at least shorten the length of the suction port connector 103.

[0139] Figure 3 In the illustrated embodiment, the suction port connector 103 is mounted on the base 200. The main suction tube 104 and the suction port connector 103 are located in front of the base 200, away from the motor, and the suction port connector 103 is positioned for connecting a flexible hose.

[0140] Since the base 200 is heavier than the separating device 100, placing the main suction pipe 104 and the suction port connector 103 on the base 200 is preferable to placing them on the dust cup lower cover 112. This makes the overall structure more stable when the user drags the hose. Furthermore, when the separating device 100 needs to be disassembled, it is not necessary to carry the main suction pipe 104 and the suction port connector 103, making it easier to handle.

[0141] The main suction pipe 104 and the suction port connector 103 are set at the bottom of the dust cup 110. After the fluid enters the suction port connector 103, it passes through the dust cup 110 and then through the motor. The fluid flow direction is consistent with the internal fluid channel of the cleaning equipment, ensuring the shortest path for the fluid, which can reduce fluid loss and improve the efficiency of the cleaning equipment.

[0142] like Figure 2 As shown, the outer casing of the base 200 forms a recessed mounting chamber 201, as... Figure 1 As shown, part of the separation device 100 is located inside the installation chamber 201, and the other part is exposed outside the installation chamber 201.

[0143] In the embodiments disclosed herein, the separating device 100 and the base 200 are detachably connected. When operations such as dust cleaning, switching between the cyclone separation assembly 120 and the dust bag separation assembly 140 are required, the separating device 100 can be removed from the base 200.

[0144] The detachable connection between the base 200 and the separation device 100 can be a snap-fit ​​connection. For example... Figure 2 As shown, the base 200 has a hook 202, and the separation device 100 has a slot 108 (see...). Figure 15 After the separation device 100 is placed on the base 200, the hook 202 engages with the slot 108, thus connecting the base 200 and the separation device 100. It is understood that the detachable connection between the base 200 and the separation device 100 can also be a magnetic connection, a screw connection, an adhesive connection, etc.

[0145] In addition, such as Figure 2 As shown, the base 200 also has protrusions, such as Figure 6a As shown, the bottom of the separation device 100 also has a groove 109, the shape of which matches the protrusion 205. When the separation device 100 is connected to the base 200, the separation device 100 approaches the base 200 in a roughly vertical direction. After the position of the groove 109 at the bottom of the separation device 100 contacts the base 200, the separation device 100 rotates around the protrusion 205 as an axis. The rotation direction is inclined towards the mounting chamber 201 in the base 200, and then the protrusion 205 is inserted into the groove 109.

[0146] Without limitation, at the location where the base 200 and the separation device 100 are connected, the slot 108 and the groove 109 are located at opposite ends of the separation device 100.

[0147] like Figure 2 As shown, both the first inlet 101 and the first outlet 102 are located between the hook 202 and the protrusion. That is, the protrusion 205, the first inlet 101, the first outlet 102, and the hook 202 are arranged sequentially, with the hook 202 adjacent to the outside of the first outlet 102 and the protrusion 205 adjacent to the outside of the first inlet 101. In this way, the first outlet 102 and the first inlet 101 are not easily leaked at the connection between the separating device 100 and the base 200, preventing the seal at the connection between the separating device 100 and the base 200 from failing during use.

[0148] like Figures 3 to 4b As shown, the dust cup 110 includes: a dust cup body 111 and a dust cup lower cover 112. The dust cup body 111 is a hollow part with an opening at the lower end; the dust cup lower cover 112 is pivotally connected to the dust cup body 111.

[0149] In embodiments not shown in this disclosure, the dust cup lower cover 112 can also be detachably connected to the dust cup body 111, wherein the dust cup lower cover 112 can be completely separated from the dust cup body 111 after being detached. The connection method between the dust cup lower cover 112 and the dust cup body 111 is not limited to this.

[0150] like Figure 4a and Figure 4b As shown, the dust cup lower cover 112 can open the lower opening of the dust cup body 111. Figure 3 As shown, the dust cup lower cover 112 can also close the lower opening of the dust cup body 111 to form a first receiving space 110a together with the dust cup body 111.

[0151] The first inlet 101 runs through the lower cover 112 of the dust cup.

[0152] When the dust cup lower cover 112 is in the open state, the first containing space 110a is connected to the external space. The dust bag separation component 140 and the cyclone separation component 120 can be switched through the lower opening of the dust cup body 111. The garbage in the first containing space 110a can also be processed through the lower opening of the dust cup body 111.

[0153] In the embodiments disclosed herein, when the cyclone separator assembly 120 and the dust bag separator assembly 140 separate from the dust cup 110, the separation direction is always: along the axis of the dust cup 110 towards the first inlet 101. Combined with Figure 4a and Figure 4b As shown, when it is necessary to disassemble the cyclone separator assembly 120 and the dust bag separator assembly 140, open the dust cup lower cover 112, release the dust cup 110 from the dust bag separator assembly 140 and the cyclone separator assembly 120 (if any), and then remove the dust bag separator assembly 140 and the cyclone separator assembly 120 along the axial direction of the dust cup 110 toward the first inlet 101.

[0154] In the prior art, the cyclone separator is removed from the top of the dust cup, while the dust bag is removed along the vertical direction of the first inlet. The two are removed in different directions. In this embodiment, both the dust bag separator 140 and the cyclone separator 120 are removed along the axial direction of the dust cup 110 toward the first inlet 101, ensuring that the two can share the same dust cup 110.

[0155] like Figure 3 As shown, the separation device 100 also includes a first filter element 130, which is used to filter the fluid flowing from the cyclone separation assembly 120 and / or the dust bag separation assembly 140 to the first outlet 102.

[0156] If the cleaning equipment is in a first operating mode, the first filter 130 filters the fluid flowing out of the cyclone separator 120. If the cleaning equipment is in a second operating mode, the first filter 130 filters the fluid flowing out of the dust bag separator 140. If the cleaning equipment is in a third operating mode, the first filter 130 filters the fluid flowing out of both the dust bag separator 140 and the cyclone separator 120.

[0157] The first filter element 130 is filter cotton. Alternatively, the first filter element 130 can also be HEPA, but is not limited to this.

[0158] In this embodiment, the filtration level of the first filter element 130 is higher than that of the dust bag separation assembly 140, and the filtration level of the dust bag separation assembly 140 is higher than that of the cyclone separation assembly 120. The filtration level is determined by the smallest diameter of the dust particles that can be filtered; the smaller the smallest diameter of the dust particles that can be filtered, the higher the filtration level; conversely, the larger the diameter, the lower the filtration level. Typically, the filtration level of the dust bag separation assembly 140 is higher than that of the cyclone separation assembly 120, and it meets the user's daily needs. That is, the particles in the fluid filtered by the dust bag separation assembly 140 will not damage the internal structure of the motor. Therefore, the first filter element 130 is only used in the first usage mode (i.e., only when the cyclone separation assembly 120 is used alone). Thus, the first filter element 130 and the cyclone separation assembly 120 can be integrated. When the cyclone separation assembly 120 is removed and replaced with the dust bag separation assembly 140, the first filter element 130 is also removed. This arrangement reduces fluid loss in the second usage mode and also extends the lifespan of the first filter element 102.

[0159] The dust cup body 111 is generally cylindrical, and its upper end can be closed. Alternatively, the upper end of the dust cup body 111 may also have an opening. Figure 3 As shown, the dust cup 110 also includes a dust cup cover 113, which is pivotally connected to the dust cup body 111 so as to open or close the upper opening of the dust cup body 111.

[0160] like Figure 3 As shown, the first filter element 130 is located below the dust cup cover 113 and downstream of the cyclone separator assembly 120 and / or the dust bag separator assembly 140 in the direction of fluid flow. With the dust cup cover 113 open, the first filter element 130 can be easily replaced.

[0161] like Figure 3 As shown, the cyclone separator 120 has a second inlet 1201 for fluid to enter its interior, a second outlet 1202 for fluid to flow out of its interior, and a dust discharge port 1211 (see [reference]). Figure 5eThe second inlet 1201 is connected to the first inlet 101, the second outlet 1202 is connected to the first outlet 102, and the ash discharge port 1211 is connected to the first accommodating space 110a.

[0162] The second inlet 1201 is approximately coaxial with the first inlet 101. Fluid passing through the first inlet 101 enters the second inlet 1201 and then enters the cyclone separator 120. After being separated inside the cyclone separator 120, the cleaner fluid flows from the second outlet 1202 to the first outlet 102, while the dirtier fluid, containing more dust, garbage particles, or debris, flows out through the dust discharge port 1211. Finally, the solid dirt, such as dust, garbage particles, or debris, falls to the bottom of the first receiving space 110a (i.e., the dust cup lower cover 112) under the action of gravity. After opening the dust cup lower cover 112, this solid dirt can fall out.

[0163] Therefore, by combining the pivotal connection between the dust cup lower cover 112 and the dust cup body 111, and the connection between the ash-throwing port 1211 of the cyclone separation assembly 120 and the first receiving space 110a, garbage can be conveniently dumped.

[0164] like Figure 5a and Figure 5b As shown, the cyclone separator assembly 120 includes a cyclone cup 121 and a cyclone support 122. The cyclone support 122 is located inside the cyclone cup 121, and the second inlet 1201 is used to allow fluid to enter the cyclone cup 121; the cyclone support 122 has a helical surface 1226 extending about the axis of the cyclone support 122 from the second inlet 1201 toward the second outlet 1202.

[0165] Combination Figure 5a and Figure 5b As shown, the ash-throwing port 1211 is located on the side of the cyclone cup 121, and the second outlet 1202 is located above the ash-throwing port 1211.

[0166] like Figure 5d and Figure 5e As shown, the spiral surface 1226 guides the fluid to flow upwards along the axis in a spiral manner, providing tangential acceleration to the fluid and forming a vortex, thus ensuring the separation of the fluid. During the upward spiral flow, heavier fluids containing more dust, garbage particles, or fragments are thrown towards the ash-throwing port 1211 under centrifugal force and enter the first space from there. Lighter fluids with less dust continue to flow upwards and exit the cyclone cup 121 through the second outlet 1202. In other words, the fluid entering the cyclone cup 121 through the second inlet 1201 and flowing upwards along the spiral surface 1226 achieves the purpose of trapping solid dirt and separating dust and gas.

[0167] By setting a spiral surface 1226, and utilizing the characteristic of the spiral surface 1226 spiraling upward in the axial direction, air intake at the bottom of the dust cup 110 is achieved, replacing the solution of air intake at the side of the dust cup 110.

[0168] like Figure 5e and Figure 5f As shown, the inner wall of the dust ejection port 1211 (referring to the side wall of the cyclone cup 121 forming the dust ejection port 1211) has a guide surface 1212 tangential to the inner wall of the cyclone cup 121. Under the centrifugal force of the vortex fluid, the heavier fluid carrying more solid dirt rises to the dust ejection port 1211. Under the action of centrifugal force, the path through which the solid dirt is ejected is approximately along the tangential direction of the inner wall of the cyclone cup 121, consistent with the inclination direction of the guide surface 1212. Therefore, the guide surface 1212 can more smoothly eject the solid dirt from the dust cup.

[0169] The inner wall of the ash discharge port 1211 protrudes at least partially from the cyclone cup 121, which can not only play a better guiding role, but also prevent the fluid flowing out of the cyclone cup 121 from flowing back into the cyclone cup 121.

[0170] like Figure 5a , Figure 5b and Figure 5d As shown, the cyclone support 122 also has an air inlet 1221 extending along the axial direction of the cyclone support 122; in the fluid flow direction, the air inlet 1221 is located upstream of the spiral surface 1226, and the inlet of the air inlet 1221 is the second inlet 1201.

[0171] The air inlet connector 1221 extends toward the first inlet 101 to better connect the first inlet 101 and the interior space of the dust cup 110.

[0172] like Figure 5d As shown, the turning point at the junction of the air inlet connector 1221 and the spiral surface 1226 has a transition slope 1203 that guides the airflow to smoothly transition to the spiral surface 1226.

[0173] The air inlet connector 1221 is arranged along the axial direction of the cyclone support 122. The fluid inlet of the spiral surface 1226 is approximately tangent to the radial direction of the cyclone support 122. The transition slope 1203 is approximately tangent to the air inlet connector 1221 and the spiral surface 1226 respectively.

[0174] The transition slope 1203 can be used to smoothly transition the connection between the air inlet connector 1221 and the spiral surface 1226, allowing the fluid to transition smoothly at the turning point. Therefore, the transition slope 1203 can reduce the energy loss of the fluid rushing into the cyclone support 122.

[0175] like Figure 5dAs shown, the cyclone support 122 includes: a central portion 125 and a helical blade 1225. The central portion 125 is a hollow part with a filter hole 1222. The second outlet 1202 is located in the central portion 125 and downstream of the filter hole 1222 along the fluid flow direction. The helical blade 1225 extends helically along the axial direction of the central portion 125, and the helical surface 1226 is the surface of the helical blade 1225. The filter hole 1222 is located downstream of the helical blade 1225 along the fluid flow direction.

[0176] like Figure 5e As shown by the middle arrow, after the mixed fluid enters the second inlet 1201, it rises along the helical surface 1226 of the helical blade 1225. The helical surface 1226 causes the gas to generate an upward circular motion. Figure 6b As indicated by the middle arrow, the pressure in the central portion 125 is lower due to the suction force provided by the drive unit 300. Fluid containing less solid contaminants is drawn into the central portion 125 through the filter holes 1222 and ultimately flows out of the cyclone separator assembly 120 through the second outlet 1202. Figure 6b It can be seen that small particles of dirt in a relatively clean fluid can be adsorbed by the first filter element 130 to further purify the fluid flowing to the drive element 300 and reduce the impact of dirt on the drive element 300.

[0177] During the upward flow of fluid, such as Figure 6a As indicated by the middle arrow, dust and debris particles, being denser, are gradually flung outwards under centrifugal force. After climbing along the inner wall of the cyclone separator several times, they are ejected from the cyclone cup 121 at the ash-throwing port 1211 and enter the space between the cyclone cup 121 and the dust cup 110 (i.e., part of the first receiving space 110a). The airflow velocity between the cyclone cup 121 and the dust cup 110 is relatively low. The debris ejected from the ash-throwing port 1211 rotates around the outside of the cyclone cup 121 under the action of inertia and gradually settles at the bottom of the dust cup 110 under the action of gravity.

[0178] Waste with a density close to that of air and a volume larger than the diameter of the filter hole 1222 will be blocked outside the central part 125 where the filter hole 1222 is located, and will be continuously impacted by the subsequent fluid and carried out of the ash discharge port 1211.

[0179] like Figure 5d As shown, the central portion 125 is generally cylindrical. A helical surface 1226 extends from the outer periphery of the central portion 125 to the inner wall of the cyclone cup 121, creating a seamless or nearly seamless space between the helical blades 1225 and the cyclone cup 121. This structure allows the helical surface 1226 to occupy a larger portion of the space between the central portion 125 and the cyclone cup 121, maximizing the formation of vortices in the fluid entering the cyclone cup 121.

[0180] like Figure 5dAs shown, the air inlet connector 1221 is attached to the bottom of the spiral blade 1225 and is eccentrically positioned relative to the center portion 125.

[0181] The spiral blade 1225 is located below the filter hole 1222 and above the air inlet connector 1221.

[0182] Generally, dirt tends to accumulate in the filter holes 1222, making the area around the filter holes 1222 dirtier than the air inlet connector 1221. Therefore, by placing the filter holes 1222 above the air inlet connector 1221, users can pinch or hold the cleaner air inlet connector 1221 without touching the dirtier filter holes 1222, thus improving the user experience.

[0183] The bottom of the central portion 125 is closed and the top is open (i.e., the second outlet 1202) to ensure that the fluid entering the interior of the central portion 125 through the filter hole 1222 continues to flow upward.

[0184] like Figure 7a As shown, the diameter L3 of the central portion 125 is between 1 / 3 and 3 / 5 of the inner diameter L5 of the cyclone cup 121. This arrangement ensures better separation of heavier contaminants such as dust from the fluid. In the embodiment shown in this disclosure, L3 is 27 mm and L5 is 90 mm. For example, the inner diameter of the central portion 125 is 1 / 3, 3 / 5, or 7 / 15 of the inner diameter of the cyclone cup.

[0185] The total height of the spiral surface 1226 (i.e., the height of the spiral blade 1225) L1 is greater than or equal to the distance L2 from the tip of the spiral blade 1225 to the dust discharge port 1211. In the embodiment shown in this disclosure, L1 is 60 mm and L2 is 55 mm. This ensures that the dust has sufficient upward force.

[0186] Figure 5d An exemplary diagram shows a helical blade 1225 that rotates less than two revolutions, thus reducing pressure drop and making the cyclone separator structure more compact. One revolution refers to the helical blade 1225 rotating 360° around the central portion 125. A helical channel 124 is formed between the lower helical blade 1225 and the upper helical blade 1225, and a transition ramp 1203 connects the upper helical blade 1225 and the air inlet connector 1221, respectively.

[0187] like Figure 5b As shown, the cyclone cup 121 and the cyclone support 122 are detachably connected. For the cyclone separation assembly 120, fluid flows between the cyclone cup 121 and the cyclone support 122 to achieve dust and gas separation. Dirt can easily accumulate between the cyclone cup 121 and the cyclone support 122. Making the cyclone cup 121 and the cyclone support 122 detachable makes it easier to clean them separately.

[0188] like Figure 5c As shown, the bottom end of the cyclone support 122 has a positioning notch 1223, as... Figure 5b As shown, the bottom end of the cyclone cup 121 has a positioning protrusion 1213, which is downward along the axial direction and can be inserted into the positioning notch 1223.

[0189] It is understandable that the positioning notch 1223 can also be located at the bottom end of the cyclone cup 121, and the positioning protrusion 1213 can be located at the bottom end of the cyclone bracket 122. Alternatively, both the cyclone cup 121 and the cyclone bracket 122 may have both the positioning notch 1223 and the positioning protrusion 1213, with the positioning protrusion 1213 and the positioning notch 1223 corresponding one-to-one. When the cyclone cup 121 and the cyclone bracket 122 are assembled, the corresponding positioning protrusion 1213 is inserted into the corresponding positioning notch 1223.

[0190] The cooperation between the positioning protrusion 1213 and the positioning notch 1223 can limit the relative rotation between the cyclone bracket 122 and the cyclone cup 121, ensuring the reliability of the connection between the two.

[0191] like Figure 5c As shown, the bottom end of the cyclone support 122 has a flange 1224 protruding outward from the cyclone support 122, and the flange 1224 has a positioning notch 1223, which, combined with Figure 5a The bottom of the cyclone cup 121 abuts against the flange 1224.

[0192] Combination Figure 5c and Figure 7f A mounting groove 127 is formed on the outer side wall of the cyclone bracket 122 and above the flange 1224, wherein the flange 1224 forms the bottom wall of the mounting groove 127. The mounting groove 127 is used to accommodate the second seal 170.

[0193] The cyclone cup 121 is a roughly cylindrical structure with an open bottom. When the cyclone bracket 122 is inserted into the cyclone cup 121 through the bottom opening, the contact between the flange 1224 and the cyclone cup 121 can indicate that both are installed in place.

[0194] Alternatively, the cyclone cup 121 and the cyclone bracket 122 can be fixed by the friction or clamping force at their joint.

[0195] The flange 1224 is approximately located around the periphery of the bottom helical blade 1225. When it is necessary to disassemble the cyclone support 122, the bottom edge of the cyclone support 122 can be pinched (for example, pinching the air inlet connector 1221) along the axial direction ( Figure 5b (In the direction of the middle arrow), separate the cyclone support 122 from the cyclone cup 121.

[0196] like Figure 5aAs shown, the cyclone separator assembly 120 also includes a cyclone cover plate 123. The cyclone cover plate 123 is located at the top of the cyclone cup 121, and covers the gap between the cyclone cup 121 and the cyclone support 122, and is sealed to the cyclone cup 121 and the cyclone support 122 respectively.

[0197] The top of the cyclone cup 121 also has an opening, and the central portion 125 of the cyclone support 122 is approximately coaxial with the cyclone cup 121. The cyclone cover 123 covers the top opening of the cyclone cup 121 and has a through hole 1232 communicating with the second outlet 1202 (e.g., ...). Figure 5e (As shown). The through hole 1232 can prevent the cyclone cover plate 123 from blocking the second outlet 1202, ensuring that the fluid in the cyclone cup 121 and the cyclone support 122 flows out through the second outlet 1202.

[0198] like Figure 7e As shown, the cyclone cover 123 has a lip 1231 extending to the inner wall of the second outlet 1202, and the lip 1231 is sealed to the inner wall of the second outlet 1202. The lip 1231 allows as much fluid as possible to be directed to and out of the second outlet 1202, while limiting fluid leakage at the junction of the cyclone cover 123 and the central portion 125.

[0199] The lip 1231 and the central portion 125 overlap by at least 1-10 mm in the axial direction, and the inner and outer surfaces at the connection point are smoothly transitioned. The thickness of the lip 1231 is between 0.2 and 0.7 times the thickness of the main wall. This ensures minimal fluid loss within the central portion 125 and also allows the airflow entering the central portion 125 through the filter hole 1222 to flow more effectively into the second outlet 1202.

[0200] For example, the lip 1231 coincides with the center portion 125 in the axial direction by 0.1 mm, 0.15 mm, or 0.5 mm in thickness. The thickness of the lip 1231 is 0.2 mm, 0.3 mm, 0.25 mm, 1 mm, or 1.5 mm.

[0201] like Figure 7e As shown, the cyclone cover 123 has a rounded transition at the corner from longitudinal to transverse, which can further reduce fluid velocity loss. The cyclone cover 12 is connected to the central portion 125 in the longitudinal direction and to the side wall of the cyclone cup 121 in the transverse direction.

[0202] The cyclone cover 123 and the cyclone cup 121 are fixedly connected and cannot be disassembled. They can be fixedly connected by ultrasonic welding. Alternatively, they can be fixedly connected by screws, adhesive bonding, or other welding methods.

[0203] Cyclone cup 121 and dust cup 110 are detachably connected. When cyclone cup 121 is connected to dust cup 110, the cyclone separation assembly 120 and dust cup 110 can be connected; when cyclone cup 121 is separated from dust cup 110, the entire cyclone separation assembly 120 can be separated from dust cup 110.

[0204] Optionally, the cyclone cup 121 can be directly connected to the dust cup 110 to enable the cyclone separation assembly 120 to be detachable.

[0205] like Figure 7a and Figure 7b As shown in the embodiment disclosed in this disclosure, the cyclone cup 121 is indirectly connected to the dust cup 110 via the cyclone cup holder 150. For example, the cleaning device further includes: the cyclone cup holder 150, which is located within the first receiving space 110a. The cyclone cup holder 150 has a first snap-fit ​​portion, and the cyclone cup 121 has a second snap-fit ​​portion. The first snap-fit ​​portion and the second snap-fit ​​portion snap together to achieve a detachable connection between the cyclone cup 121 and the cyclone cup holder 150.

[0206] like Figure 7c and Figure 7d As shown, the first engaging portion is a slot 151, and the second engaging portion is a protruding locking block 1214, which can be inserted into the slot 151. It can be understood that the first engaging portion can also be a locking block, and the second engaging portion can be a slot. Alternatively, both the first and second engaging portions may include a locking block and a slot, with the slots and blocks corresponding one-to-one. When the cyclone cup holder 150 and the cyclone cup 121 are connected, the locking blocks can be inserted into the corresponding slots.

[0207] like Figure 7c and Figure 7d As shown, the slot includes a first portion 152 with an opening distributed along the axial direction of the cyclone cup 121, and a second portion 153 extending circumferentially along the cyclone cup 121, the second portion 153 communicating with the first portion 152. After the card is inserted into the first portion 152, it rotates circumferentially into the second portion 153 to connect the cyclone cup 121 to the cyclone cup holder 150.

[0208] The first part 152 and the second part 153 of the card slot are approximately perpendicular. The card block is approximately in a straight line. The number of card slots and card blocks can be independently set to one, two, three or more.

[0209] In the embodiments disclosed herein, the cyclone cup holder 150 is provided with three slots evenly spaced along the circumference, and correspondingly, the cyclone cup 121 has three locking blocks.

[0210] The cyclone separator 120 can be installed inside the dust cup 110 by rotation. It can also be installed by rotation (e.g., ...). Figure 4a(As indicated by the middle arrow) Remove the cyclone separator assembly 120 from the dust cup 110. The rotation directions for removal and installation are opposite. During this process, the engagement of the positioning protrusion 1213 and the positioning notch 1223 also provides positioning for the engagement of the locking block and the locking slot. The positioning protrusion 1213 is larger and easier to insert into the positioning notch 1223. After the positioning protrusion 1213 is inserted into the positioning notch 1223, the corresponding locking block will also be inserted into the locking slot.

[0211] like Figure 7f As shown, the separation device 100 further includes a first sealing element 160 located within the first inlet 101. When a cyclone separation assembly 120 is installed in the dust cup 110, one end of the first sealing element 160 is sealed to the bottom end of the cyclone support 122; when a dust bag separation assembly 140 is installed in the dust cup 110, one end of the first sealing element 160 is sealed to the bottom end of the dust bag separation assembly 140. The other end of the first sealing element 160 is sealed to the suction port connector 103.

[0212] Upstream of the fluid flow, the first seal 160 seals with the suction port connector 103. Downstream, the first seal 160 seals with the cyclone support 122 or the dust bag separation assembly 140, thus combining the sealing functions of both sides on the same seal, improving the utilization rate of the first seal 160.

[0213] The first seal 160 is connected to the lower cover 112 of the dust cup. The lower cover 112 can be used to close and fix the first seal 160, tightly abutting against the cyclone support 122 or the dust bag separation assembly 140, thus achieving a seal on the upper end (i.e., the downstream side) of the first seal 160. Alternatively, after the separation device 100 is installed on the base 200, the gravity of the separation device 100 can also tightly abut against the suction port connector 103, thereby achieving a seal on the lower end (i.e., the upstream side) of the first seal 160. This sealing method of the first seal 160 reduces the need for screws.

[0214] like Figure 7a and Figure 7f As shown, the first sealing element 160 is a generally cylindrical sealing ring, and the sealing ring is approximately coaxial with the first inlet 101. The first sealing ring can be made of a soft material, such as silicone.

[0215] Figure 7f In the middle, the air inlet connector 1221 of the cyclone bracket 122 abuts against the first sealing member 160 to achieve a sealed connection.

[0216] refer to Figure 10bThe bottom end of the dust bag separation assembly 140 also has a dust bag connector 143. The dust bag connector 143 and the air inlet connector 1221 of the cyclone bracket 122 can be of the same specification and are interchangeable. When the dust bag separation assembly 140 is installed in the dust cup 110, one end of the first seal 160 is sealed to the dust bag connector 143.

[0217] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the bottom of the separation assembly (referring to the cyclone separation assembly 120 and / or the dust bag separation assembly 140) is at least partially inserted into the lower cover 112 of the dust cup. For example, the separation assembly can be inserted into the first inlet 101.

[0218] Combination Figure 7a and Figure 7f As shown, the first seal 160 includes a sealing body 161 and sealing lips 162 located at the upper and lower ends of the sealing body 161, respectively. The sealing body 161 is connected to the dust cup lower cover 112 to fix the first seal 160.

[0219] The sealing lip 162 extends outward from the first inlet 101, and the bottom ends of the suction port connector 103 and the cyclone support 122 are both sealed to the corresponding sealing lip 162. The first seal 160 achieves sealed connection with the separation device 100 and the suction port connector 103 respectively through the sealing lip 162. For example: Figure 7f As shown, the sealing body 161 can be clamped between two components inside the dust cup lower cover 112 to fix the first seal 160.

[0220] The first sealing element 160 is a symmetrical element, meaning that the sealing lips 162 on the upper and lower sides of the sealing body 161 are symmetrically distributed. This eliminates the directional issues at the upper and lower ends of the first sealing element 160, reducing the problem of inverted installation during assembly and facilitating installation.

[0221] like Figure 7f As shown, the sealing lip 162 extends outward and upward from the sealing body 161, and its thickness gradually decreases outward and upward. The lower end face of the cyclone bracket 122 contacts the upper surface of the sealing body 161. When the motor starts and fluid passes through the first seal 160, the top of the sealing lip 162 is the thinnest, so it is the first to be affected by the vacuum and tends to straighten. As a result, the top of the sealing lip 162 can better seal with the end of the cyclone bracket 122 (i.e., the air inlet connector 1221).

[0222] In the axial direction, the inner surface of the fluid channel of the first seal 160 may be formed by splicing two sealing lips 162, or the sealing body 161 may provide at least part of the fluid channel. Providing the fluid channel in the sealing body 161 can make the structure of the sealing lip 162 more stable and also reduce the possibility of the dust bag separation assembly 140 or the cyclone separation assembly 120 coming into contact with the suction port connector 103.

[0223] The outer side surface of the first seal 160 has a roughly T-shaped structure, which facilitates the fixed installation of the first seal 160 and can also effectively ensure the axial positioning of the sealing lip 162.

[0224] like Figure 7f As shown, the cyclone separation assembly 120 further includes a second sealing member 170 located between the bottom end of the cyclone cup 121 and the cyclone support 122, the second sealing member 170 being sealed to the bottom end of the cyclone cup 121 and the cyclone support 122 respectively.

[0225] The second seal 170 can achieve a seal at the bottom connection between the cyclone cup 121 and the cyclone bracket 122, reducing air leakage.

[0226] The second seal 170 can also be a soft rubber sealing ring.

[0227] Therefore, it can be seen that in the cyclone separator assembly 120, the cyclone cup 121, the cyclone bracket 122, the cyclone cover plate 123, and the second seal 170 do not have special waterproof requirements. Therefore, the disassembled cyclone separator assembly 120 can be cleaned and dried, which further facilitates the cleaning of the cyclone separator assembly 120.

[0228] In the embodiments shown in this disclosure, no seal is provided at the top of the cyclone cup 121 due to the small pressure difference and for ease of installation. In some embodiments not shown in this disclosure, a soft rubber seal may be provided at the top of the cyclone cup 121 to enhance the sealing performance of the cyclone separation assembly 120. Exemplarily, this seal may be located between the cyclone cup 121 and the cyclone cover plate 123, and be sealingly connected to both respectively.

[0229] like Figure 7f As shown, after the cyclone bracket 122 is assembled with the dust cup 110, the elasticity of the first seal 160 allows the cyclone bracket 122 to have a movable distance in the axial direction of the first seal 160; the second seal 170 has an annular protrusion 171 protruding toward the cyclone cup 121, and the distance between the annular protrusion 171 and the bottom end of the cyclone cup 121 is greater than or equal to the movable distance.

[0230] The annular protrusion 171 can enhance the sealing performance of the second seal 170.

[0231] The distance between the annular protrusion 171 and the bottom of the cyclone cup 121 is greater than or equal to the movable distance, which can further ensure the sealing performance of the second seal 170.

[0232] like Figure 7g and Figure 7jAs shown, according to some alternative embodiments, the separation device 100 further includes a leak-proof assembly, which is movably connected to the dust cup 110 and has a first state and a second state.

[0233] In the embodiments disclosed herein, when the anti-leakage assembly is in the first state, the anti-leakage assembly prevents the connection between different components of the dust cup 110 itself. Figure 7i and Figure 7j When the anti-leakage assembly is in the second state, it allows connection between different parts of the dust cup 110 itself. Figure 7g and Figure 7h ).

[0234] The dust cup 110 itself has different components, including: the lower dust cup cover 112 and the dust cup body 111, or the upper dust cup cover 113 and the dust cup body 111.

[0235] In embodiments not shown in this disclosure, when the anti-leakage assembly is in a first state, the anti-leakage assembly prevents the connection between the dust cup 110 and the base 200; when the anti-leakage assembly is in a second state, the anti-leakage assembly allows the connection between the dust cup 110 and the base 200.

[0236] In the embodiments shown in this disclosure, such as Figure 7i and Figure 7j As shown, when the anti-leakage assembly is in the first state, the anti-leakage assembly portion is located on the closed trajectory of the dust cup lower cover 112 (approximately as shown). Figure 7g As shown by the arc-shaped dashed line, the connection between the dust cup lower cover 112 and the dust cup body 111 is restricted. In the first state, due to the blocking effect of the anti-leakage assembly, the dust cup lower cover 112 cannot be closed onto the dust cup body 111.

[0237] like Figure 7g and Figure 7h As shown, when the anti-leakage assembly is in the second state, it is located outside the closing trajectory of the dust cup lower cover 112, allowing the dust cup lower cover 112 and the dust cup body 111 to connect. At this time, the anti-leakage assembly does not have an obstructive function, and the dust cup lower cover 112 can be closed on the dust cup body 111.

[0238] When both the cyclone separator assembly 120 and the dust bag separator assembly 140 are detachably installed in the dust cup, there is a risk of omission. Using an anti-omission assembly prevents the omission of either the cyclone separator assembly 120 or the dust bag separator assembly 140, ensuring that the separators function effectively in dust-air separation. This also reduces the risk of excessive dirt entering the base 200 and damaging the drive unit 300 due to the omission of either assembly.

[0239] When the cyclone separator assembly 120 or the dust bag separator assembly 140 is installed in the dust cup 110, the leak-proof assembly can be switched from the first state to the second state. Conversely, when the cyclone separator assembly 120 or the dust bag separator assembly 140 is removed from the dust cup 110, the leak-proof assembly can be switched from the second state to the first state.

[0240] Combination Figures 7h to 7k As shown, the anti-leakage assembly includes: a push rod 180 and an elastic element 182. The push rod 180 is connected to the dust cup lower cover 112; the elastic element 182 provides the push rod 180 with a first driving force toward the closing trajectory of the dust cup lower cover 112 (the direction of the first driving force is...). Figure 7k (middle arrow direction); when the cyclone separator 120 or dust bag separator 140 is assembled with the dust cup lower cover 112, the cyclone separator 120 or dust bag separator 140 applies a second driving force opposite to the first driving force to the top rod 180 so that the anti-leakage assembly is in the second state.

[0241] When the push rod 180 is not subjected to external force, the elastic force of the elastic element 182 acts as the first driving force to drive the push rod 180 to be located in the closed trajectory of the dust cup lower cover 112, so as to restrict the connection between the dust cup lower cover 112 and the dust cup body 111.

[0242] After the cyclone separator assembly 120 or the dust bag separator assembly 140 is assembled with the dust cup lower cover 112, the cyclone separator assembly 120 or the dust bag separator assembly 140 applies an external force (i.e., a second driving force) to the push rod 180 to push the push rod 180 to move the elastic element 182, overcoming the first driving force of the elastic element 182. At this time, the push rod 180 is outside the closed trajectory to allow the dust cup lower cover 112 and the dust cup body 111 to connect. The elastic element 182 stores elastic deformation force.

[0243] After the cyclone separator 120 or the dust bag separator 140 is removed from the dust cup cover 112, the elastic element 182 returns to its original shape, generating the first driving force, and the anti-leakage assembly returns to the first state.

[0244] Figure 7k The elastic element 182 is shown as a torsion spring, as an example. It will be understood that the elastic element 182 may also be other structures such as a compression spring, a tension spring, or a leaf spring.

[0245] like Figure 7k and Figure 8 As shown, the top rod 180 is distributed around the first inlet 101, that is, the top rod 180 has a clearance opening 181 to avoid the first inlet 101. The top rod 180 has a first protrusion 1801 and a second protrusion 1802. The first protrusion 1801 has a guide slope 1805 to guide the cyclone separation assembly 120 or the dust bag separation assembly 140 into the first inlet 101.

[0246] When the anti-leakage assembly is in the first state, such as Figure 7j As shown, the first protrusion 1801 is at least partially located within the first inlet 101, and the second protrusion 1802 is at least partially located within the closed trajectory. The second protrusion 1802 will block the dust cup lower cover 112 during the closing process, that is, the second protrusion 1802 conflicts with the dust cup lower cover 112, and the dust cup lower cover 112 cannot be closed on the dust cup body 111. When the anti-leakage assembly is in the second state, the cyclone separation assembly 120 or the dust bag separation assembly 140 abuts against the first protrusion 1801, and the push rod 180 moves in the opposite direction (i.e., along) Figure 7k (in the opposite direction of the middle arrow) so that the first protrusion 1801 moves outside the first entrance 101 and the second protrusion 1802 is located outside the closed trajectory.

[0247] When the cyclone separator assembly 120 is installed inside the dust cup 110, the air inlet connector 1221 is inserted into the clearance opening 181 and contacts the guide slope 1805 of the first protrusion 1801. When the dust bag separator assembly 140 is installed inside the dust cup 110, the dust bag connector 143 is inserted into the clearance opening 181 and contacts the guide slope 1805 of the first protrusion 1801.

[0248] The guide ramp 1805 guides the insertion of the cyclone separator 120 or the dust bag separator 140, making the insertion smoother and facilitating the removal of the cyclone separator 120 or the dust bag separator 140 from the relief opening 181.

[0249] like Figure 7j As shown, the leak-proof assembly is located inside the dust cup lower cover 112, thus reducing the impact of dust and other dirt on the leak-proof assembly. For example, Figure 7i The dust cup lower cover 112 also includes a cover plate 183, which covers the top of the anti-leakage assembly, and the anti-leakage assembly is located in the space between the cover plate and the bottom wall of the dust cup lower cover 112.

[0250] In this embodiment of the present disclosure, in the second usage mode, the dust is retained inside the dust bag separation component. In the first usage mode, the dust will be scattered on the dust cup lower cover 112 and the inner wall of the dust cup 110. Setting the anti-leakage component inside the dust cup lower cover 112, rather than on top of the dust cup lower cover 112, can improve the smoothness and flatness of the inner wall of the dust cup 110 and the surface of the dust cup lower cover 112.

[0251] The gap between the cover plate 183 and the bottom wall of the dust cup lower cover 112 together forms a space for the top rod 180 to move. The cover plate 183 has the function of limiting and protecting the top rod 180, preventing dirt from entering between the cover plate 183 and the bottom wall of the dust cup lower cover 112 and affecting the movement of the top rod 180.

[0252] like Figures 7j to 8As shown, the leak-proof assembly also includes a third seal 1803 and a fourth seal 1804. The third seal 1803 is connected to the first protrusion 1801 to form a sealing structure at the movable part of the first protrusion 1801, thereby limiting the movement path of dirt blocking the first protrusion 1801. The fourth seal 1804 is connected to the second protrusion 1802 to form a sealing structure at the movable part of the second protrusion 1802, thereby limiting the movement path of dirt blocking the second protrusion 1802.

[0253] When the leak-proof assembly switches between the first and second states, the first protrusion 1801 and the second protrusion 1802 need to frequently enter and exit the space between the cover plate 183 and the bottom wall of the dust cup lower cover 112. By providing the third seal 1803 and the fourth seal 1804, the active positions of the two protrusions can be sealed respectively, further reducing the impact of dirt entering the space between the cover plate 183 and the bottom wall of the dust cup lower cover 112 on the movement of the push rod 180.

[0254] like Figure 8 As shown, the third seal 1803 is an encapsulated structure formed on the first protrusion 1801, and the fourth seal 1804 is an encapsulated structure formed on the second protrusion 1802.

[0255] The rubber-coated structure provides better fixation for the push rod 180, preventing it from shifting during its movement and ensuring a better seal during its movement.

[0256] like Figure 9 As shown, the dust cup lower cover 112 includes a first cover 112a, a second cover 112b, and a spring 184. The second cover 112b is located inside the first cover 112a. The first cover 112a forms part of the exterior panel of the dust cup lower cover 112. The first cover 112a has a third latching portion 112c, and the dust cup has a fourth latching portion 110b. After the dust cup lower cover 112 is closed with the dust cup 110, the fourth latching portion 110b engages with the third latching portion 112c. The spring 184 is located between the first cover 112a and the second cover 112b, and provides a third driving force to drive the first cover 112a away from the dust cup 110. Figure 9 As shown, the third driving force is used to strengthen the engagement between the fourth latching part 110b and the third latching part 112c.

[0257] The use of spring 184 can reduce the risk of the fourth locking part 110b disengaging from the third locking part 112c, ensuring the reliability of the connection between the dust cup lower cover 112 and the dust cup 110.

[0258] like Figure 9 As shown, both the third locking part 112c and the fourth locking part 110b are locking hooks.

[0259] like Figure 9As shown, the first cover 112a and the second cover 112b clamp the sealing body 161 of the first seal 160 between them to fix the first seal 160.

[0260] like Figure 10a and Figure 10b The dust bag separation assembly 140 includes a dust bag 141 and a dust bag holder 142, the dust bag holder 142 having a third inlet 1204 communicating with the internal space of the dust bag 141 (e.g., ...). Figure 10b As shown, the third inlet 1204 is located at the bottom of the dust bag bracket 142 and can dock with the first inlet 101.

[0261] The dust bag connector 143 is located at the bottom of the dust bag holder 142 and extends toward the first inlet 101; the two can be integral components. The inlet of the dust bag connector 143 is the third inlet 1204.

[0262] The dust bag connector 143 extends from the dust bag holder 143 toward the first inlet 101. Its shape is generally cylindrical to fit the first inlet 101, and its size is slightly smaller than that of the inlet.

[0263] like Figure 10b As shown, a guide rib position 1431 may be provided on the outside of the dust bag connector 143.

[0264] The lower cover 112 of the dust cup protrudes partially into the interior of the dust cup 110 around the first inlet 101, as shown in the image. Figure 7i and Figure 7j As shown, the cover plate 183 arches upward. This partial protrusion facilitates the installation of a leak-proof device under the cover plate 183 and also extends the installation guide length of the dust bag connector 143 and the dust cup lower cover 112.

[0265] In this embodiment of the present disclosure, at least a portion of the bottom of the separating component is inserted into the dust cup lower cover 112. The insertion position in the dust cup lower cover 112 can be a partially protruding portion. This structure allows the dust cup lower cover 112 to have a certain "wrapping" effect on the separating component, reducing dust accumulation and thus improving the cleanliness of the dust cup 110.

[0266] In the direction of fluid flow, if a dust bag separation assembly 140 is installed inside the dust cup 110, the dust bag connector 143 is at least partially inserted into the lower cover 112 of the dust cup. If a cyclone separation assembly 120 is installed inside the dust cup 110, the air inlet connector 1221 is at least partially inserted into the lower cover 112 of the dust cup.

[0267] The bottom of the separation assembly includes a grip for disassembling and installing the cyclone separation assembly 120 and the dust cup 110. For example, the portion of the separation assembly that inserts into the lower cover 112 of the dust cup may be the grip.

[0268] The gripping part is at least partially inserted into the first inlet 101; the gripping part of the cyclone separator 120 is the air inlet connector 1221, and the gripping part of the dust bag separator 140 is the dust bag connector 143. In summary, the air inlet connector and the dust bag connector 143 can not only communicate with the first inlet 101 as a fluid channel, but also trigger the state switching of the anti-leakage assembly after insertion into the first inlet 101. Furthermore, they can also serve as gripping parts, facilitating the disassembly and installation of the separator components, achieving multiple benefits.

[0269] The part of the separator that is inserted into the dust cup cover 112 at the bottom (e.g., air inlet connector 1221 or dust bag connector 143) serves both as a guide and as a friction force for the disassembly and installation of the cyclone separator 120 and the dust cup 110. The user can install and disassemble the cyclone separator 120 by rotating the grip up and down, or the user can disassemble and install the cyclone cup 121 and the cyclone bracket 122 by holding the grip.

[0270] like Figure 10a As shown, the dust bag connector 143 abuts against the first sealing element 160 to achieve a sealed connection. The lower end face of the dust bag connector 143 contacts the upper surface of the sealing body 161. When the motor starts and fluid passes through the first sealing element 160, the top of the sealing lip 162 is the thinnest and is therefore the first to be affected by the vacuum, tending to straighten. This allows the top of the sealing lip 162 to better seal against the dust bag connector 143.

[0271] Without limitation, other structures of the dust bag connector 143, and the relationship between the dust bag connector 143 and other structures in the dust cup 110, can be the same as the air inlet connector 1221 in the cyclone separator assembly 120. The third inlet 1204 and the second inlet 1201 are both connected to the same first inlet 101, so that the first inlet 101 can be adapted to the cyclone separator assembly 120 and the dust bag separator assembly 140 respectively, thereby improving the utilization rate of the first inlet 101.

[0272] like Figure 3 As shown, the cleaning device also includes: a drive unit 300, which provides suction force; such as Figure 11 As shown, the base 200 has a third outlet 203 for fluid to flow to the external space, and a fluid channel connecting the first outlet 102 to the third outlet 203. This fluid channel refers to the flow channel of the fluid within the base 200. After the fluid flowing out of the separation device 100 enters the base 200, it finally flows to the external space through the third outlet 203.

[0273] Compared to existing vacuum cleaners that require rotating and opening the entire large top cover to remove and insert the dust bag 141, such as Figure 4bAs shown, in this embodiment of the present disclosure, the dust bag 141 can be replaced after the dust cup lower cover 112 is opened via a pivot connection. After the dust cup lower cover 112 is closed, it can not only press the first sealing element 160 to achieve a seal at the first inlet 101, but also provide a sealing element around the dust cup lower cover 112 to achieve a seal at the connection between the dust cup lower cover 112 and the dust cup body 111. This makes the sealing method to ensure vacuum level simpler.

[0274] like Figure 10b As shown, the dust bag holder 142 also has a notch 1401. Correspondingly, the dust cup body 111 has a protrusion corresponding to the notch. The protrusion can be inserted into the notch 1401 to ensure that both are installed in place and to ensure the stability of the connection between the dust bag separation assembly 140 and the dust cup.

[0275] like Figure 11 As shown, the base 200 includes: a housing and a cover 210 located inside the housing. The cover 210 includes: an outer cover 220 and an inner cover 230. The outer cover 220 has a third receiving space 204 and a third outlet 203 communicating with the third receiving space 204. The inner cover 230 is located inside the third receiving space 204.

[0276] like Figure 13 As shown, the inner cover 230 includes: a bottom wall 231, an outer wall 232, and an inner wall 233. The inner wall 233 extends from the bottom wall 231 along the axial direction of the inner cover 230 to form an inner cavity 234. The outer wall 232 extends from the bottom wall 231 along the axial direction of the inner cover 230 to form an outer cavity 235. The outer cavity 235 is located between the inner wall 233 and the outer wall 232. The driving member 300 is at least partially inserted into the inner cavity 234, and the outlet of the driving member 300 is located in the inner cavity 234. The inner wall 233 has a first through hole 2331 for fluid to flow from the inner cavity 234 to the outer cavity 235, and the outer wall has a second through hole 2321 for fluid to flow from the outer cavity 235 to the space between the outer cover 220 and the inner cover 230.

[0277] The outer cover 220, the inner cover 230, and the drive component 300 work together to form a fluid channel.

[0278] like Figures 11 to 13 As shown, the fluid flowing out of the drive unit 300 enters the inner cavity 234 of the inner cover 230, then enters the outer cavity 235 through the first through hole 2331, then flows through the second through hole 2321 into the space between the inner cover 230 and the outer cover 220 (i.e., part of the space of the third receiving space 204), and finally flows from the outer cover 220 to the third outlet 203.

[0279] A high-density sponge is connected between the drive component 300 and the inner cover 230 to reduce noise. The drive component 300 and the inner cover 230 together form an upstream air duct. After the fluid exits the inner cover 230, it enters another air duct composed of the inner cover 230 and the outer cover 220, with the airflow direction as follows: Figures 11 to 13 As shown.

[0280] like Figure 11 As shown, the outer cover 220 includes an upper cover 221 and a lower cover 222 that covers the opening of the upper cover 221. The upper cover 221 and the lower cover 222 together form a third receiving space 204 for receiving the inner cover 230.

[0281] like Figure 14d As shown, the airflow direction of the third outlet 203 is roughly perpendicular to the axis of the motor (i.e., the drive component 300) and is located on the right side of the motor. The perpendicularity of the axis of the third outlet 203 to the motor axis facilitates airflow. When using the cleaning equipment, users typically hold the hose with their right hand and stand on the left side of the equipment. The location of the third outlet 203 on the right reduces the possibility of airflow blowing directly onto the user, improving the user experience.

[0282] The third outlet 203 includes a first sub-outlet 203a located on the outer casing and a second sub-outlet 203b located on the side wall of the upper cover 221. Figure 12 The first sub-outlet 203a and the second sub-outlet 203b are coaxial. The fluid in the third containment space 204 first passes through the second sub-outlet 203b and then through the first sub-outlet 203a to flow to the external environment.

[0283] The high-speed fluid velocity decreases after bypassing the inner cover 230 and the outer cover 220, and this structure has two more walls than the direct-outflow structure where the fluid flows directly from the drive unit 300 to the third outlet 203; both of these factors can reduce noise.

[0284] like Figure 13 As shown, the first through hole 2331 and the second through hole 2321 are distributed opposite to each other, which can extend the flow path of the fluid in the inner cover 230 and help to further reduce the fluid velocity.

[0285] like Figure 12 As shown, the third outlet 203 is distributed opposite to the second through-hole 2321. This extends the flow path of the fluid between the inner cover 230 and the outer cover 220, which helps to further reduce the fluid velocity.

[0286] The cleaning device also includes a fifth seal and a sixth seal. The fifth seal is sealed to the drive unit 300 and the inner wall to restrict fluid from flowing out of the inner cavity 234 through the connection between the drive unit 300 and the inner wall; the sixth seal is sealed to the outer wall and the outer cover 220 to restrict fluid from flowing out of the outer cavity 235 through the connection between the outer wall and the outer cover 220.

[0287] like Figure 14a and Figure 14bAs shown, the cleaning device also includes a second filter element 240 located within the third outlet 203, the second filter element 240 having an aromatherapy mounting position on its outer side opposite to the drive element 300.

[0288] The aromatherapy mounting position is used to install the aromatherapy unit 250. Positioning the aromatherapy unit at the third outlet 203 ensures that the fragrance is noticeable as soon as the cleaning equipment is turned on. The third outlet 203 disperses the fragrance from the aromatherapy unit 250, expanding the fragrance's range and diffusion speed, resulting in a stronger scent. The aromatherapy unit 250 can also mask any unpleasant odors that may exist during cleaning, improving the user experience.

[0289] If the motor has a high power output, or if the motor has been running for a long time or at a high speed, the air flowing out of the third outlet 203 will be heated. This heated air will further accelerate the flow of fragrance as it passes through the aromatherapy mounting position. The second filter element 240 is a HEPA filter, and the aromatherapy mounting position is a mounting hole 241 formed on the outer filter frame of the HEPA filter. The mounting hole 241 minimizes obstruction of the aromatherapy element 250, thereby allowing the aromatherapy element 250 to better release its fragrance.

[0290] The HEPA filter is typically cylindrical, and the second filter element 240 and the equally cylindrical cord reel 280 are respectively positioned on the left and right sides of the motor. This arrangement reduces the length of the cleaning equipment and concentrates the weight in one place, resulting in better equipment stability and a better user experience.

[0291] like Figure 14b As shown, the wall of the mounting hole 241 has a notch 242 for taking out and putting in the aromatherapy component 250.

[0292] The notches provide an operable position for the user to pick up and put down the aromatherapy component 250. For example, two notches 242 can be symmetrically set on both sides of the mounting hole 241. When picking up and putting down the aromatherapy component 250, two fingers can be placed at the corresponding notches 242 to hold the aromatherapy, making it easy to pick up and put down the aromatherapy.

[0293] The aromatherapy component 250 can be a solid in the form of a sheet, ball, or block, or a liquid soaked in an absorbent material. The aromatherapy component 250 can also be a semi-solid. The specific form of the aromatherapy component 250 is not intended to limit this application.

[0294] Figures 14a to 14c An example of a generally annular aromatherapy component 250 is shown. The annular aromatherapy component 250 can increase its contact area with the fluid, thereby further improving the aromatherapy effect.

[0295] Figure 14c As can be seen, an air outlet hood 270 is also provided outside the aromatherapy component 250, and the aromatherapy component 250 is located between the second filter component 240 and the air outlet hood 270. The third outlet 203 is partially formed on the air outlet hood 270.

[0296] like Figure 14b As shown, the depth of the mounting hole 241 is greater than the thickness of the aromatherapy diffuser. This provides some protection for the diffuser. For example, when the cleaning equipment is struck by an external object, the object will come into contact with the wall of the mounting hole 241 first, without touching the aromatherapy diffuser.

[0297] like Figure 14b As shown, the wall of the mounting hole 241 has a limiting buckle 260 that limits the aromatherapy component 250 within the mounting hole 241.

[0298] The limiting buckle 260 can better fix the aromatherapy in the mounting hole 241, ensuring the reliability of the aromatherapy fixation.

[0299] Taking the second filter element 240 as an example, the HEPA filter includes an outer frame and an inner filter element located within the frame. The mounting hole 241 and the limiting buckle 260 are both located on the frame, and the aromatherapy is located between the limiting buckle 260 and the inner filter element.

[0300] The limiting buckle 260 has an inclined surface 261 that guides the aromatherapy component 250 into the mounting hole 241. The inclined surface 261 can better guide the aromatherapy component into the mounting hole 241.

[0301] The separation device 100 also includes at least one of the following located on the dust cup 110: a dust cup release button 107a, a dust cup upper cover release button 105, and a dust cup lower cover release button 106.

[0302] When the dust cup release button 107a is triggered, the dust cup 110 can be separated from the base 200 of the cleaning equipment, which facilitates the removal of the separation device 100 from the base 200.

[0303] The dust cup cover release button 105 is triggered so that the dust cup cover 113 can be opened, making it easy to replace the first filter element 130.

[0304] The dust cup bottom cover release button 106 is triggered so that the dust cup bottom cover 112 can be opened, making it easy to empty the dust cup 110 of any remaining trash.

[0305] Figure 15 An exemplary illustration shows that the dust cup 110 simultaneously has a dust cup release button 107a, a dust cup upper cover release button 105, and a dust cup lower cover release button 106.

[0306] For example, such as Figure 14a and Figure 15 As shown, the dust cup top cover 113 has a first handle 107, the dust cup release button 107a is located on the top of the first handle 107, and the dust cup top cover release button 105 and the dust cup bottom cover release button 106 are both located on the side of the dust cup 110.

[0307] Combination Figure 14b As shown, the dust cup lower cover release button 106 is located on the side of the dust cup facing the base 200, which reduces the risk of the dust cup lower cover release button 106 being accidentally activated.

[0308] The third usage mode of the cleaning equipment in the embodiments of this disclosure will be described below.

[0309] For example, the dust bag separation assembly 140 has a second receiving space; when the separation device 100 is in a third operating mode, the cyclone separation assembly 120 is at least partially located within the second receiving space, and the dust bag separation assembly 140 filters the fluid downstream of the cyclone separation assembly 120.

[0310] In the third operating mode, the dust ejection port 1211 of the cyclone separator 120 is connected to the internal space (i.e., the second receiving space) of the dust bag separator 140. The dust bag can further filter the fluid separated by the cyclone separator 120.

[0311] Dust bag separation component 140 can be found Figure 10b The structure of the dust bag assembly is shown. At the bottom of the dust bag separating assembly 140, the dust bag connector 143 can be larger than the air inlet connector, and the two can be fitted together. At the top of the dust bag separating assembly 140, the dust bag can be partially clamped between the cyclone cup 121 and the cyclone cup fixing bracket 150. The fluid flowing out of the second outlet 1202 of the cyclone bracket 122 is filtered by the dust bag and then flows to the first filter element 130.

[0312] Figures 16 to 19 A schematic diagram of the structure of a handheld vacuum cleaner is shown as an example.

[0313] and Figure 1 and Figure 2 Unlike the canister vacuum cleaner shown, Figures 16 to 19 The separation device 100 of the vacuum cleaner shown in the figure only has its end (the bottom end shown in the figure) in contact with the base 200. The base 200 is provided with a second handle 290 for the user to grip.

[0314] Generally, the first suction port of a handheld vacuum cleaner (also equivalent to...) Figure 16 The main straw (at position 104) shown is not connected to a flexible tube, but to a rigid straw.

[0315] In the handheld vacuum cleaner, the suction nozzle connector is installed at the bottom of the separation device 100. Figures 16 to 19 The suction port connector is not shown in the diagram; its structure can be found in the reference diagram. Figure 13 103, middle suction port connector.

[0316] like Figure 17As shown, the dust cup lower cover 112 of the handheld vacuum cleaner is pivotally connected to the dust cup body 111. After the dust cup lower cover 112 is opened, the cyclone separator assembly 120 (such as...) can be installed in the dust cup 110. Figure 18 (as shown) and dust bag separation assembly 140 (as shown) Figure 19 (As shown).

[0317] The other structures of the handheld vacuum cleaner described above can be the same as the corresponding structures of the canister vacuum cleaner described above, and will not be described again here.

[0318] The cleaning equipment disclosed in this embodiment is not limited to canister vacuum cleaners and handheld vacuum cleaners, but may also be canister vacuum cleaners, upright vacuum cleaners, etc.

[0319] Without conflict, different embodiments or different technical features of this disclosure can be arbitrarily combined to form new embodiments.

[0320] It should be understood that the above embodiments are exemplary and are not intended to encompass all possible implementations included in the claims. Various modifications and changes can be made to the above embodiments without departing from the scope of this disclosure. Similarly, the various technical features of the above embodiments can be arbitrarily combined to form other embodiments of this disclosure that may not be explicitly described.
