Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of spray devices, in particular to a spray head with a cleaning structure and a spray can. BACKGROUND

[0002] A spray can includes a pressure can and a spray head. A high-pressure liquid content is sealed in the pressure can. When a valve of the pressure can is opened, the content enters the spray head from a liquid outlet of the pressure can and is sprayed from a nozzle of the spray head, so that the content is released to the outside in a mist form. In order to realize atomization of the content, the content is forced to pass through a small space, i.e. the nozzle, at this time the content is under high pressure and is accelerated rapidly, so that the content is broken into small droplets after being released to the outside environment. Therefore, the inner wall diameter of the nozzle is small. After a spray is completed, part of the content is left on the surface of the nozzle. After the solvent of the content volatilizes, the non-volatile solute is deposited on the surface of the nozzle, which easily blocks the outlet of the nozzle and is not conducive to long-term use of the spray head.

[0003] In the prior art, a spray head cover is arranged adjacent to the outer surface of the spray head. The spray head cover is controllably slid to drive a cleaning cloth strip to slide and rub the outer surface of the spray head, so that the outer surface of the spray head is cleaned.

[0031] In addition, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present application described below can be combined with each other as long as there is no conflict.

[0032] The application discloses a nozzle with a cleaning structure, which comprises a cover 3, a pushing assembly 4 and a sliding assembly 5. The cover 3 is detachably connected to a valve rod 12 of a pressure tank 1, and comprises a hollow shell 31, a longitudinal channel 32 and a transverse channel 33. The shell 31 is provided with a spraying channel 312 extending in a first direction and communicating between the inside and outside of the shell 31, the transverse channel 33 communicates with the spraying channel 312 and the inside of the longitudinal channel 32, and the spraying channel 312 is in airtight connection with the transverse channel 33. The longitudinal channel 32 is provided with an inner insertion hole 321 extending in a direction away from the transverse channel 33 and communicating between the inside and outside of the longitudinal channel 32, and the shell 31 is provided with an outer insertion hole 311 communicating between the inside and outside of the shell 31. The nozzle comprises the spraying channel 312 extending in the first direction, and the spraying channel 312 is in airtight connection with the transverse channel 33. The pushing assembly 4 is sealingly inserted into the outer insertion hole 311 and the inner insertion hole 321, and partially sleeved in the transverse channel 33. The pushing assembly 4 comprises a long strip-shaped cleaning needle 41 arranged in the first direction. The cleaning needle 41 is provided with an insertion end 412 matched with the spraying channel 312, and is controllably reciprocated between a first position and a second position in the first direction. When the cleaning needle 41 is located at the second position, the cleaning needle 41 is separated from the nozzle, and when the cleaning needle 41 moves to the first position in a direction close to the nozzle, the insertion end 412 of the cleaning needle 41 is inserted into the spraying channel 312 and is flush with the side of the nozzle away from the outer insertion hole 311. The sliding assembly 5 comprises a sliding rail 51 connected to the outer wall of the shell 31, a sliding block 52 slidingly connected to the sliding rail 51 and a cleaning cloth 53 connected to the sliding block 52 and close to the side of the shell 31. The sliding block 52 is controllably slid between a position away from the nozzle and a position where the cleaning cloth 53 covers the nozzle. The sliding block 52 is synchronously slid with the cleaning needle 41, and when the cleaning cloth 53 covers the nozzle, the cleaning needle 41 is located at the first position.

[0033] The insertion end 412 of the cleaning needle 41 is matched with the spraying channel 312, and when cleaning is performed, the insertion end 412 of the cleaning needle 41 is inserted into the spraying channel 312, and the remaining content in the spraying channel 312 is pushed out of the spraying channel 312, at the same time, the cleaning cloth 53 is slid to a position corresponding to the surface of the nozzle away from the inner insertion hole 321 with the sliding block 52, the cleaning cloth 53 is attached to the nozzle and absorbs the liquid content, so that the surface of the nozzle and the spraying channel 312 are synchronously cleaned, and the spraying channel 312 is prevented from being blocked. Even if the spraying channel 312 is blocked, the solid substances deposited in the spraying channel 312 are pushed out by the cleaning needle 41 and are wiped by the cleaning cloth 53 at the same time, so that the spraying channel 312 is re-opened, and the service life of the nozzle is prolonged.

[0034] The movement of the cleaning needle 41 and the cleaning cloth 53 is linked in the present application, so that the spray channel 312 is kept unblocked when the operation is simple, the operation is simple and has good cleaning effect, and can adapt to the two cases of the nozzle not being blocked and being blocked. When the cleaning needle 41 is just inserted into the spray channel 312, part of the impurities is pushed out of the spray channel 312 by the cleaning needle 41, at this time the cleaning cloth 53 is still moving, so that the impurities pushed out of the spray channel 312 are not completely attached to the same place of the cleaning cloth 53, but are more evenly spread on the surface of the cleaning cloth 53, which helps to ensure that the cleaning cloth 53 can be used for a long time.

[0035] For details, please refer to the following examples.

[0036] Example one:

[0037] Please refer to Figure 1 The spray tank shown in a preferred embodiment of the present application includes a spray head 2 and a pressure tank 1, which is used for spraying automobile self-spraying paint.

[0038] The pressure tank 1 is integrally constructed as a vertically arranged cylindrical shape, and has a horizontal mounting surface 11 at the top. A liquid outlet valve is mounted at the center of the mounting surface 11 and penetrates the mounting surface 11. The liquid outlet valve includes a vertically arranged cylindrical valve rod 12, and the top end of the valve rod 12 is a hollow liquid outlet. The pressure tank 1 is a sealed structure, and the liquid outlet valve is normally closed. When the valve rod 12 is pressed downward, the liquid outlet valve is opened, and the contents contained in the pressure tank 1 flow out of the liquid outlet. Since the specific structure of the liquid outlet valve is prior art, it is not described in detail here. The spray head 2 is detachably connected to the valve rod 12. When the spray head 2 is pressed downward, it drives the valve rod 12 to move downward together along the vertical direction, so as to open the liquid outlet valve.

[0040] The cover 3 comprises a shell 31, a longitudinal channel 32 and a transverse channel 33. The shell 31 is integrally configured as a hollow cylinder with an open bottom. A spray channel 312 is formed on the sidewall of the shell 31 and extends in a first direction, which is a horizontal direction. The longitudinal channel 32 is disposed inside the shell 31 in a second direction, which is a vertical direction. One end of the longitudinal channel 32 is connected to the inner wall of the top of the shell 31, and the other end is flush with the bottom of the shell 31 and is sealingly and detachably sleeved on the valve stem 12, so that the inside of the longitudinal channel 32 is in communication with the liquid outlet. The transverse channel 33 is disposed in the first direction and coaxial with the spray channel 312. One end of the transverse channel 33 is sealingly connected to the inner wall of the shell 31, and the other end is connected to the corresponding position of the longitudinal channel 32 and extends into the inside of the longitudinal channel 32, so that the spray channel 312 and the longitudinal channel 32 are sealingly communicated. The inner wall diameter of the transverse channel 33 is greater than that of the spray channel 312. The longitudinal channel 32 is formed with an inner insertion hole 321, and the shell 31 is formed with an outer insertion hole 311. The inner insertion hole 321 and the outer insertion hole 311 are coaxial with the transverse channel 33 and are located on the side of the transverse channel 33 away from the spray channel 312. In this embodiment, the inner insertion hole 321 and the outer insertion hole 311 are both configured as a circular tube and protrude outward from the longitudinal channel 32 and the shell 31, respectively.

[0041] In this embodiment, the spray channel 312 is directly formed on the sidewall of the shell 31. In other embodiments, the spray channel 312 can be formed on a nozzle embedded in the sidewall of the shell 31.

The pushing assembly 4 is detachably connected to the shell 31, and each component is easy to install and disassemble, so that the whole pushing assembly 4 is easy to maintain.

[0043] The cleaning needle 41 is disposed in the first direction and comprises a push block 414, a reinforcing section 413 and a matching section 411 which are coaxial and connected to each other. The reinforcing section 413 is connected between the push block 414 and the matching section 411, and its diameter is greater than that of the matching section 411 and smaller than that of the push block 414. The push block 414 has a small length in the first direction, which is used to push the whole cleaning needle 41 to slide in the first direction. The diameter of the matching section 411 is matched with the spray channel 312, and the end of the matching section 411 away from the reinforcing section 413 is an insertion end 412 of the cleaning needle 41. The shape of the insertion end 412 of the cleaning needle 41 is matched with the outer wall of the shell 31. The insertion end 412 of the cleaning needle 41 is made of a material that does not absorb water. In this embodiment, the whole cleaning needle 41 is made of stainless steel. In other embodiments, the insertion end 412 of the cleaning needle 41 can be made of hard plastic or adhere to flexible silica gel.

[0044] The sleeve 42 is integrally configured as a hollow cylindrical structure with opposite sealing end 421 and abutting end 422. The middle part of the sleeve 42 is connected with a fixing cover 425. The fixing cover 425 is integrally configured as a hollow cover with cylindrical shape and coaxial with the sleeve 42, which is sleeved and connected to the outside of the sleeve 42 and is open at the end close to the sealing end 421. The sealing end 421 of the sleeve 42 is inserted into the inside of the shell 31 from the outer insertion hole 311, and the outer wall of the outer insertion hole 311 and the inner wall of the fixing cover 425 are formed with matching threads. When the fixing cover 425 is locked by threads in the outer insertion hole 311, the sleeve 42 is fixed and detachably connected to the shell 31, and the sealing end 421 of the sleeve 42 is sealingly connected to the inner insertion hole 321 of the shell 31 through the blocking plug 423. The blocking plug 423 is made of rubber material and is integrally configured as a circular ring with a stepped outer edge, having an inner embedding part and a port part connected to each other, and the inner edge is fitted to the reinforcing section 413 of the cleaning needle 41. The diameter of the inner embedding part of the blocking plug 423 is matched to the inner diameter of the inner insertion hole 321, and the inner embedding part is sleeved at the end of the inner insertion hole 321 away from the longitudinal channel 32. The diameter of the port part of the blocking plug 423 is matched to the outer diameter of the inner insertion hole 321, and the side surface close to the inner insertion hole 321 abuts against the end surface of the inner insertion hole 321, and the side surface away from the inner insertion hole 321 is connected to the sealing end 421 of the sleeve 42. The inner wall of the sealing end 421 of the sleeve 42 is protruded inwardly, so that the sealing end 421 of the sleeve 42 is configured as a circular ring with the inner edge fitted to the reinforcing section 413 of the cleaning needle 41. The cleaning needle 41 is inserted into the inside of the sleeve 42, and the reinforcing part is inserted through the through hole of the blocking plug 423 and the sealing end 421 of the sleeve 42, and the fitting section 411 of the cleaning needle 41 is inserted into the transverse channel 33. At this time, under the action of the blocking plug 423, the contents flowing out of the liquid outlet cannot escape through the inner insertion hole 321 to the outside of the transverse channel 33 and the longitudinal channel 32, so that the contents are sprayed out of the spray channel 312 at a high speed.

[0045] The sleeve 42 is formed with two opposite track holes 424 extending in the first direction. The track holes 424 communicate between the inside and outside of the sleeve 42 and are flush with the abutting end 422 of the sleeve 42 at one end. The end of the track holes 424 away from the abutting end 422 of the sleeve 42 is adjacent to the fixing cover 425 and is located at the side of the fixing cover 425 close to the abutting end 422 of the sleeve 42. The first end plate 43 is integrally formed as a circular plate with a diameter larger than the outer wall of the sleeve 42. The first end plate 43 is formed with two circular-arc-shaped through-hole-shaped embedding holes 431 matched with the abutting end 422 of the sleeve 42 and a through hole at the center matched with the reinforcing section 413 of the cleaning needle 41. The first end plate 43 is coaxially sleeved on the abutting end 422 of the sleeve 42 through the embedding holes 431 and is abutted against the end of the track holes 424 adjacent to the fixing cover 425. The reinforcing section 413 of the cleaning needle 41 passes through the through hole on the first end plate 43. The cleaning needle 41 further comprises a second end plate 416. The second end plate 416 is integrally formed as a circular sheet and is connected to and coaxial with the reinforcing section 413. The outer side edge of the second end plate 416 is matched with the inner wall of the sleeve 42. The edge of the second end plate 416 is protruded to form a restraint portion 417 matched with the track holes 424. The restraint portion 417 is slidingly connected to the track holes 424 to facilitate the restraint of the rotation of the cleaning needle 41 when the cleaning needle 41 slides in the first direction. The cleaning spring 44 is sleeved in the sleeve 42 and is sleeved on the outside of the reinforcing section 413 of the cleaning needle 41. The two ends of the cleaning spring 44 are abutted against the first end plate 43 and the second end plate 416 respectively. The cleaning spring 44 comprises a compression spring and a circular-ring-shaped first buffer ring 441 abutted against the two ends of the compression spring. The first buffer ring 441 is sleeved on the reinforcing section 413 of the cleaning needle 41 and is sleeved in the sleeve 42. When the cleaning spring 44 is in the released state, the side of the second end plate 416 away from the first end plate 43 is flush with the abutting end 422 of the sleeve 42. At this time, the cleaning needle 41 is located at the second position. The insertion end 412 of the cleaning needle 41 is located in the transverse channel 33 and is separated from the spray channel 312.

[0046] See Figure 4 and Figure 5The surface of the reinforced section 413 of the cleaning needle 41 is partially protruded to form a rectangular block 415. The end cover 45 comprises a screw cap 451 and an extension 452. The screw cap 451 is integrally configured as a one-side open circular cap with a thread formed on the inner wall. The outer surface of the abutting end 422 of the sleeve 42 is formed with a thread matched with the thread of the screw cap 451, and is detachably connected with the screw cap 451. The middle part of the screw cap 451 is formed with a through hole for the block 415 to pass through. The extension 452 is integrally configured as a two-side open hollow cylinder with the inner wall diameter matched with the outer wall of the sleeve 42, and is fixedly connected at one end to the opening of the screw cap 451. When the screw cap 451 is locked to the abutting end 422 of the sleeve 42, the inner wall of the screw cap 451 abuts against the second end plate 416, and the extension 452 abuts against the first end plate 43, preventing the second end plate 416 from falling off the track hole 424 and the first end plate 43 from sliding. Two bolts are detachably connected to the side of the screw cap 451 away from the protective cover to form two slide rods 453. The protective plate 46 is coaxially sleeved outside the reinforced section 413 of the cleaning needle 41, and is arranged at the side of the screw cap 451 close to the push block 414. The protective plate 46 is freely rotated and slid relative to the reinforced section 413 of the cleaning needle 41, and the surface is formed with two rotation tracks 461 coaxial with the cleaning needle 41, and the two slide rods 453 are slidably connected to the two rotation tracks 461, respectively. The rotation track 461 restricts the rotation of the protective plate 46, and when the cleaning needle 41 slides relative to the sleeve 42, the protective plate 46 slides relative to the cleaning needle 41. The surface of the protective plate 46 is also formed with a positioning hole 462 matched with the block 415 of the cleaning needle 41. When the cleaning needle 41 is in the second position, the block 415 is located at the side of the protective plate 46 close to the push block 414, and is adjacent to the protective plate 46. When the protective plate 46 is rotated to the position where the positioning hole 462 corresponds to the block 415, the push block 414 is pushed to make the cleaning needle 41 as a whole move towards the spray channel 312 in the first direction, at this time, the second end plate 416 slides along the track hole 424, and the cleaning spring 44 is compressed, and at the same time, the insertion end 412 of the cleaning needle 41 gradually inserts into the spray channel 312. When the cleaning needle 41 cannot continue to slide due to abutting against the protective plate 46, the cleaning needle 41 reaches the first position, at this time, the insertion end 412 of the cleaning needle 41 is flush with the outer surface of the shell 31. When the pressure applied to the push block 414 is removed, the cleaning spring 44 rebounds, and the cleaning needle 41 returns to the second position. When the protective plate 46 is rotated to the position where the positioning hole 462 is misaligned with the block 415, the block 415 abuts against the protective plate 46, preventing the cleaning needle 41 from sliding towards the spray channel 312, and preventing the spray channel 312 from being closed due to accidental touch of the push block 414 during spraying.

[0047] See Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5The sliding assembly 5 comprises a slide rail 51, a slide block 52, a cleaning cloth 53, a track frame 54, a sliding rack 55, an arc-shaped rack 56 and a gear set 57. The slide rail 51 is integrally configured as a horizontal circular arc, coaxial with the shell 31 and fitted to the outer wall of the shell 31. Two mutually parallel slide rails 51 are flush with each other and different in height, fixedly connected to the side of the spray channel 312. The slide block 52 comprises a sliding part 521 and a transmission part 522. The sliding part 521 is configured as a sheet and bent into an arc shape to fit the surface of the shell 31, with the upper and lower edges thereof slidingly connected to the two slide rails 51, respectively. The transmission part 522 is configured as a horizontally extending circular arc-shaped long strip, coaxial with the shell 31, with one end thereof fixedly connected to the side edge of the sliding part 521. The sliding part 521 of the slide block 52 is connected to the surface of the shell 31 near the cleaning cloth 53, which is made of water-absorbing material and used to wipe the surface of the shell 31 near the spray channel 312. The cleaning cloth 53 is connected by adhesion, facilitating replacement. The track frame 54 is connected to the outer wall of the shell 31 and disposed directly below the outer insertion hole 311. The track frame 54 comprises an arc-shaped track 542, a mounting table 543 and a straight track 541. The arc-shaped track 542 is coaxial with the shell 31, with the bottom thereof configured as a circular arc-shaped sheet and fixedly connected to the outer surface of the shell 31, and the two ends thereof bent upward away from the side edge of the shell 31, thereby restraining the structure inside the arc-shaped track 542 from derailing. The middle part of the arc-shaped track 542 extends in the first direction away from the shell 31, forming the mounting table 543. The mounting table 543 comprises two vertical side walls extending in the first direction, and a long strip-shaped through hole extending in the first direction is formed in one side wall of the mounting table 543, i.e., the straight track 541. The arc-shaped rack 56 is configured as a horizontal circular arc coaxial with the shell 31. The teeth of the arc-shaped rack 56 face the mounting table 543, and the side thereof away from the teeth is fitted to the side of the transmission part 522 of the slide block 52 away from the shell 31, so that the arc-shaped rack 56 and the transmission part 522 of the slide block 52 are simultaneously slidingly connected to the arc-shaped track 542. The arc-shaped rack 56 is connected to the end of the transmission part 522 of the slide block 52 away from the sliding part 521, so that the sliding part 521 of the slide block 52 synchronously slides with the sliding of the arc-shaped rack 56. The sliding rack 55 is configured as a long strip extending in the first direction, with the side thereof away from the teeth slidingly connected to the straight track 541 by a matching block structure. The gear set 57 is detachably mounted to the mounting table 543 and comprises a first gear 571 and a second gear 572 meshing with each other, with the first gear 571 meshing with the sliding rack 55 and the second gear 572 meshing with the arc-shaped rack 56. When the sliding rack 55 approaches the shell 31 in the first direction, the cleaning cloth 53 is caused to slide toward the spray channel 312 under the transmission of the gear set 57.

[0048] The sliding assembly 5 further comprises a linkage 58. The linkage 58 has a pushing end 581 and a sliding end 582 with fixed relative positions. The pushing end 581 of the linkage 58 is configured as a circular ring. The reinforcing section 413 of the cleaning needle 41 has a stud with a smaller diameter than the reinforcing section 413 connected to one end away from the fitting section 411. The pushing block 414 has a screw hole formed on the side surface close to the reinforcing section 413 to fit the stud, so that the pushing block 414 is detachably connected to the reinforcing section 413. The pushing end 581 of the linkage 58 fits the stud and is clamped between the reinforcing section 413 and the pushing block 414. The sliding end 582 of the linkage 58 is fixedly connected to the end surface of the sliding rack 55 away from the housing 31 by a bolt. The cleaning needle 41 and the sliding rack 55 are fixedly connected and synchronously slide through the linkage 58. When the cleaning needle 41 is in the first position, the sliding part 521 of the sliding block 52 is flush with the sliding rail 51 at both ends and is away from the spray channel 312. When the cleaning needle 41 is in the second position, the center position of the cleaning cloth 53 corresponds to the spray channel 312. When cleaning the spray channel 312, when the insertion end 412 of the cleaning needle 41 just inserts into the spray channel 312, the edge position of the cleaning cloth 53 covers the spray channel 312, so as to adsorb the content pushed out of the spray channel 312 by the cleaning needle 41. When the cleaning needle 41 reaches the second position, the content in the spray channel 312 is completely pushed out and is more uniformly adsorbed on the cleaning cloth 53, so as to complete the cleaning of the spray channel 312.

[0049] See Figure 1 and Figure 6The nozzle 2 further comprises a limiting assembly 6. The limiting assembly 6 comprises a containing cylinder 61, an extension column 62 and a homing spring 63. The containing cylinder 61 is configured as a hollow cylinder, and the outer wall thereof is connected to the outer wall of the shell 31 and extends along the second direction. The surface of the containing cylinder 61 is formed with a clamping groove 611 in the form of a through hole. The clamping groove 611 comprises a straight portion 612 extending along the second direction, and a clamping portion 613 connected perpendicularly to the straight portion 612 and close to one end of the pressure tank 1. The extension column 62 comprises a supporting rod 623 and a rotating column 621 connected coaxially, and the diameter of the rotating column 621 is greater than that of the supporting rod 623. The rotating column 621 is fitted to the inner wall of the containing cylinder 61 and is sleeved in the containing cylinder 61. The surface of the rotating column 621 is protruded to form a limiting rod 622 fitted to the clamping groove 611. The supporting rod 623 is connected to one end of the rotating column 621 close to the pressure tank 1, and the supporting rod 623 abuts against the pressure tank 1. The homing spring 63 is sleeved outside the supporting rod 623 and abuts between the inner wall of the containing cylinder 61 and the rotating column 621. The homing spring 63 comprises a second buffer ring 631 and another compression spring. The two ends of the compression spring are provided with the second buffer ring 631 in the form of a circular ring, which is sleeved in the containing cylinder 61 and outside the supporting rod 623, for reducing the friction between the compression spring and the containing cylinder 61 and the rotating column 621. When the limiting rod 622 slides into the clamping portion 613, the cover 3 has a gap with the pressure tank 1 and cannot slide along the second direction. By pushing the limiting rod 622 into the straight portion 612, the cover 3 can be moved close to the pressure tank 1 by pressing the cover 3, and at this time, the valve rod 12 is pressed to slide downward, and the liquid outlet is opened. By arranging the limiting assembly 6, the content is prevented from being sprayed out due to accidental touch of the cover 3.

[0050] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The shell 31 further comprises a pressing plate 313. The shell 31 extends along the first direction away from the spray channel 312 at the position corresponding to the outer spout, and forms the rectangular pressing plate 313. One end of the pressing plate 313 away from the spray channel 312 is vertically bent downward, and the upper surface of the pressing plate 313 is formed with rough anti-skid lines 314. The anti-skid lines 314 extend to the center of the shell 31. By arranging the pressing plate 313, the force exertion is facilitated when the cover 3 is pressed and the push block 414 is pushed, and the comfort and convenience of use are improved.

[0051] The present application has the advantages that the interior of the spray channel 312 and the surface of the shell 31 around the spray channel 312 can be cleaned simultaneously, the cleaning effect is good, the operation is simple, the present application can be adapted to the two cases that the spray channel 312 has been blocked or has not been blocked, and the present application has good universality.
