[0029] In a second aspect, the present invention provides a floor scrubbing machine body, characterized in that it includes a body body and an electrolysis device as described in the first aspect disposed on the body body.

[0034] The electrolysis device provided in this invention, compared to the electrolysis module in the cleaning liquid container of a floor scrubber in the prior art, which directly electrolyzes all the liquid in the cleaning liquid container, eliminates the need to electrolyze the liquid in the entire cleaning liquid container. The electrolysis module only needs to electrolyze the liquid introduced into the electrolysis water container through the inlet channel.

Furthermore, by designing the inlet channel connecting to the electrolysis water container as a long and narrow channel, this invention enables control of the liquid inflow per unit time, reducing the impact of newly introduced liquid on the electrolysis water concentration, ensuring the concentration of the electrolysis water, and improving the cleaning effect. In addition, compared to the prior art which controls the liquid inflow through a control system, this invention controls the liquid inflow by controlling the length of the inlet channel, reducing the complexity of the electrolysis device's control. In addition to improving electrolysis efficiency by more concentrated electrolysis and separation of small amounts of liquid to produce higher concentrations of sodium hypochlorite, the electrolysis device with a narrow inlet channel of significant height difference can further maintain high electrolysis efficiency by preventing backflow of the electrolyzed liquid.
[0035] The electrolysis device provided in this invention forms an inlet channel and an electrolyzed water receiving cavity through a detachably connected first housing and a second housing. Users can remove the first housing or the second housing to clean the electrolyzed water receiving cavity, the inlet channel, and the inlet to reduce the impact of dirt on the inlet and the electrolysis process, and extend the service life of the electrolysis device.

[0053] Exemplary embodiments will now be described in detail, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings.

The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present invention.

[0055] In the description of this invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "linking" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.
[0056] The inventors discovered that in existing technologies, floor cleaning equipment typically integrates the electrolysis device directly into the cleaning liquid container of the floor scrubber. For example, patent CN217118332U discloses a cleaning device with a disinfectant generating device, comprising: a main body having an inner cavity, within which a first tank is disposed for holding cleaning liquid; and a disinfectant generating device, at least partially disposed inside the first tank, which generates disinfectant to ensure the cleaning liquid in the first tank contains disinfectant. The disinfectant generating device includes an electrolysis device. In this type of equipment, to reduce the frequency of liquid replacement, the liquid storage area of the liquid supply device needs to be relatively large. The freshly electrolyzed water is diluted by the entire tank of water, resulting in a lower concentration and weaker disinfection effect. To ensure the concentration of the electrolyzed water achieves the desired cleaning effect, the electrolysis device must electrolyze the entire cleaning liquid container into electrolyzed water before allowing the electrolyzed water to flow out. This entire process requires a considerable waiting time for the user, severely impacting the user experience of the floor cleaning equipment. In addition, the electrical connections between the electrolysis device and the power connection device are also quite complex, which increases the difficulty of manufacturing the water supply device.
[0057] The inventors also discovered that in some improved floor scrubbing products, at least part of the electrolysis module is installed inside the water tank. For example, patent CN217161995U discloses a water supply device for a floor cleaning equipment, including: a water storage tank with an open receiving trough on one side and a water outlet; an electrolysis water tank disposed within the receiving trough and selectively connected to the water outlet, the electrolysis water tank having an electrolyzed water outlet; an electrolysis module disposed within the electrolysis water tank to form electrolyzed water within the electrolysis water tank; and a base disposed at the bottom of the electrolysis water tank and connected to the side wall of the receiving trough. For example, patent CN217185947U discloses a water supply device for a floor cleaning equipment, including: a water storage tank; an electrolytic water tank selectively connected to the water storage tank, the electrolytic water tank having an electrolytic water outlet; an electrolysis module disposed within the electrolytic water tank to form electrolyzed water within the electrolytic water tank; and an electrical connection module disposed within the electrolytic water tank and electrically connected to the electrolysis module. Although these devices divide the water tank into two parts, a water storage tank and an electrolytic water tank, the two are still connected. Even with the addition of a selective connection structure, it still increases the additional control means of the control system. At the same time, the additional selective connection structure also increases the complexity of the entire water tank and the manufacturing cost, failing to meet the inventor's expectations.
[0058] Therefore, how to efficiently provide electrolyzed water, shorten the waiting time for users to receive electrolyzed water from the tank, further reduce the installation complexity of the electrolyzed water module, reduce the control complexity of the electrolyzed water module, and extend the service life of the electrolysis device are all urgent technical problems that need to be solved. The inventors, through further research and development, have created this invention.
[0059] In a first aspect, embodiments of the present invention provide an electrolysis apparatus 10, referring to... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the device includes a housing body 101, an electrolysis module 102, and a control module 103. The housing body includes a first housing 1011 and a second housing 1012, which are detachably connected to form an electrolyzed water receiving cavity 104 and a narrow liquid inlet channel 105 connecting the electrolyzed water receiving cavity 104. The top end of the liquid inlet channel 105 is provided with a liquid inlet 1051, and the bottom end of the electrolyzed water receiving cavity 104 is provided with an electrolyzed water outlet 1041. The electrolysis module 102 is disposed inside the electrolyzed water receiving cavity 104, and the control module 103 is disposed outside the electrolyzed water receiving cavity 104. The electrolysis module 102 and the control module 103 are electrically connected.
[0060] In this embodiment, specifically, the liquid to be electrolyzed for disinfection flows through the inlet 1051 and into the electrolyzed water receiving chamber 104 via the inlet channel 105. The electrolysis module 102 in the electrolyzed water receiving chamber 104 electrolyzes the liquid in the chamber. When the electrolyzed water concentration reaches a preset concentration, it flows out through the electrolyzed water outlet 1041 for use by the cleaning head 2 of the floor scrubber. The electrolyzed water concentration can be detected by a liquid concentration sensor (not shown in the figure) installed in the electrolyzed water receiving chamber 104. The specific structure of the liquid concentration sensor can be referred to the description in the prior art, and is not specifically limited here.
[0061] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the electrolyzed water receiving cavity 104 and the liquid inlet channel 105 are both formed by a first housing 1011 and a second housing 1012 that are detachably connected. Users can remove the first housing 1011 or the second housing 1012 to clean the dirt in the electrolyzed water receiving cavity 104, the liquid inlet channel 105 and the liquid inlet 1051, thereby reducing the impact of dirt on the liquid inlet and the electrolysis process and extending the service life of the electrolysis device.
[0062] This invention, by setting the electrolyzed water receiving chamber 104 independently from the floor scrubber's cleaning liquid container, allows for electrolysis of only the liquid entering the chamber, eliminating the need to electrolyze the entire cleaning liquid container. This smaller ionization space improves electrolysis efficiency and reduces electrolysis time. A narrow, elongated inlet channel 105 is provided at one end of the electrolyzed water receiving chamber 104. This narrow channel has a small liquid capacity, and the height difference between the inlet 1051 and the chamber reduces the amount of liquid entering the chamber per unit time. This minimizes the impact of newly introduced liquid on the electrolysis process within the chamber, preventing significant dilution of the electrolyzed water concentration. Overall, this improves electrolysis efficiency, reduces user waiting time, and enhances the user experience. Compared to existing technologies where the electrolysis chamber is independently located from the cleaning fluid container, this invention utilizes a narrow, elongated inlet channel 105. The height difference between the inlet channel 105 and the electrolyzed water container 104 facilitates liquid introduction, eliminating the need for a complex liquid introduction control structure and reducing manufacturing costs. Furthermore, the significant height difference between the electrolyzed water container 104 and the inlet 1051 at the top of the narrow, elongated inlet channel 105 means that only with extremely high acceleration of the electrolysis device 10 itself can sufficient pressure be generated to overcome this height difference, allowing the electrolyzed liquid in the electrolyzed water container 104 to backflow to the inlet 1051 without overcoming the pump's head pressure. Considering the combined head pressure of the pump, the user cannot achieve the necessary acceleration of the electrolysis device 10 through ordinary dragging actions to allow the electrolyzed liquid in the electrolyzed water container 104 to backflow to the inlet 1051 without overcoming the pump's head pressure. In other words, the electrolysis device 10 with its narrow, elongated inlet channel 105, which has a significant height difference, not only concentrates the electrolysis to separate a small amount of liquid to produce a higher concentration of sodium hypochlorite, thus improving electrolysis efficiency, but also maintains high electrolysis efficiency by preventing backflow of the electrolyzed liquid. Furthermore, the height of the inlet channel 105 can be set according to actual needs, and the inlet volume can be controlled by adjusting the height ratio or volume ratio between the inlet channel 105 and the electrolyzed water container 104. For example, the height ratio between the inlet channel 105 and the electrolyzed water container 105 can be set to 3:1 to 5:1, so that the inlet 1051 and the electrolyzed water container 104 have a preset height difference.
[0063] In one specific embodiment, refer to Figures 1 to 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 8As shown, the electrolyzed water receiving cavity 104 is provided with a disinfectant filling port 1042 at a position away from the liquid inlet channel 105; the electrolyzed water receiving cavity 104 also includes a screw cap 1043, which is connected to the disinfectant filling port 1042.
[0064] In this embodiment, before cleaning, the user can inject disinfectant through the disinfectant filling port 1042. The liquid flows through the liquid inlet 1051 and into the electrolytic water receiving chamber 104, diluting the disinfectant to form diluted disinfectant water. When the disinfectant water concentration reaches a preset concentration, it flows out through the electrolytic water outlet 1041 for use by the cleaning head 2 of the floor scrubber. The disinfectant flows into the cleaning head 2 of the floor scrubber through the electrolytic water outlet 1041 for floor cleaning. This embodiment provides two methods: electrolytic water and disinfectant. The user can choose either electrolytic water or disinfectant as the cleaning agent according to actual needs. A second sealing element 1045 is provided between the cap 1043 and the disinfectant filling port 1042 to achieve a sealed connection between the cap 1043 and the disinfectant filling port 1042. The second sealing element 1045 can be an O-ring.
[0065] In one specific embodiment, refer to Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a flow-retarding section 1052 is provided at the top of the liquid inlet channel 105, and the liquid inlet 1051 is provided below the flow-retarding section 1052. By providing the flow-retarding section 1052, the liquid entering from the liquid inlet 1051 can be buffered, further slowing down the liquid flow rate and increasing the time for the liquid to enter the electrolytic water receiving chamber 104. This allows for control of the amount of liquid entering the electrolytic water receiving chamber 104 per unit time, reducing the impact of the newly entering liquid on the electrolytic water in the electrolytic water receiving chamber 104, thereby improving the electrolysis efficiency. The shape of the flow-retarding section 1052 can be set as a reference. Figure 1 The folded or sinusoidal structures shown have a flow-slowing effect. Those skilled in the art can refer to the descriptions of flow-slowing structures in the prior art, which will not be repeated here.
[0066] In one specific embodiment, refer to Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 8 As shown, the bottom end of the electrolyzed water receiving cavity 104 is provided with a mounting part 106 for isolating the inner and outer spaces of the electrolyzed water receiving cavity 104; the bottom end of the electrolyzed water receiving cavity 104 extends into a receiving structure 1044, the mounting part 106 is fixed to the receiving structure 1044, and the electrolysis module 102 is fixed to the mounting part 106.
[0067] In this embodiment, the mounting part 106 is installed in the accommodating structure 1044 to isolate the upper and lower spaces of the electrolyzed water accommodating cavity 104, and the electrolyzed water is stored in the space above the mounting part 106. A connector (not shown in the figure) is provided at the bottom of the electrolysis module 102, which is fixedly connected to the mounting part 106, thereby fixing the electrolysis module 102 within the electrolyzed water accommodating cavity 104. A first sealing member 107 is provided between the mounting part 106 and the accommodating structure 1044 to achieve a sealed connection between the mounting part 106 and the accommodating structure 1044. The first sealing member 107 can be a sealing ring. The electrolysis module 102 includes an anode, a cathode, and a proton exchange membrane, with the proton exchange membrane disposed between the anode and the cathode. The cathode and anode extend through the mounting part 106 and connect to the control module 103, which supplies power to the anode and cathode. The specific structure of the electrolysis module 102 can be described in detail in existing technologies for those skilled in the art, and will not be repeated here.
[0068] In one specific embodiment, refer to Figures 1 to 3 , Figure 5 As shown, the mounting part 106 is provided with a liquid outlet channel 1061 that communicates with the electrolyzed water outlet 1041. After the liquid is electrolyzed in the electrolyzed water receiving chamber 104, it flows out through the electrolyzed water outlet 1041. Under the action of gravity, the electrolyzed water is transported to the cleaning head through the liquid outlet channel 1061 for use in subsequent cleaning.
[0069] In one specific embodiment, refer to Figure 5 and Figure 8 As shown, at least a portion of the mounting portion 106 protrudes to form a protrusion 1062, and the accommodating structure 1044 is provided with a through hole (not shown in the figure), into which the protrusion 1062 can be fitted. In this embodiment, the protrusion 1062 is fitted into the through hole, thereby fixing the mounting portion 106 within the accommodating structure 1044, forming an installation space between the mounting portion 106 and the bottom of the housing body 101, facilitating the fixing of the control component 103.
[0070] In one specific embodiment, refer to Figure 5 and Figure 8 As shown, the control module 103 is disposed on the side of the mounting portion 106 away from the electrolyzed water receiving cavity 104. By setting the mounting portion 106, the space above and below the mounting portion 106 is isolated, preventing liquid in the electrolyzed water receiving cavity 104 from entering the control module 103 and affecting the normal operation of the control module 103, thereby improving the service life of the electrolysis device.
[0071] In one specific embodiment, a light column (not shown in the figure) is provided on at least one side of the housing body 101, and the light column is connected to the control module 103. The structure of the light column can be described in the prior art by those skilled in the art, and will not be repeated here. By providing a light column within the housing body 101, the control module 103 controls the colored light column to emit light when the electrolysis module 102 is in operation, achieving dynamic visualization of the electrolysis state and reminding the user that the floor scrubber is in the electrolysis state. To facilitate user viewing and improve the dynamic display effect, the area of the housing body 101 corresponding to the light column in this embodiment is made of a light-transmitting material.
[0072] In one specific embodiment, a liquid level sensor (not shown in the figure) is installed inside the electrolyzed water receiving cavity 104, and the liquid level sensor is connected to the control module 103. The liquid level sensor can detect the liquid level in the electrolyzed water receiving cavity 104. When there is no liquid in the electrolyzed water receiving cavity 104 or the liquid level has not reached the preset liquid level, the control module 103 controls the electrolysis module 102 to enter a dormant state to prevent dry burning and damage to the electrolysis module 102.
[0073] In one specific embodiment, refer to Figure 5 and Figure 8 As shown, the electrolyzed water outlet 1041 is positioned close to the electrolysis module 102. In this embodiment, by positioning the electrolyzed water outlet 1041 close to the electrolysis module 102, the concentration of the outflowing electrolyzed water is ensured, while facilitating the outflow of electrolyzed water, improving the efficiency of electrolyzed water entering the cleaning head 2, and enhancing the user experience.
[0074] In one specific embodiment, refer to Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the side of the electrolyzed water receiving cavity 104 is teardrop-shaped.
[0075] In one specific embodiment, the housing body 101 is provided with a plurality of first mounting holes 108. The first mounting holes 108 are used to install the electrolysis device 1 inside the floor scrubber body. The number of the first mounting holes 108 can be set according to actual needs and is not specifically limited here. In this embodiment, a foolproof design is adopted, using a plurality of staggered first mounting holes 108 on the housing body 1 to fix the electrolysis device 1 inside the floor scrubber body, improving the stability of the electrolysis device 1 on the floor scrubber body. (Refer to...) Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 10 As shown, the slow-flow section 1052, the accommodating structure 1044, and the second housing 1012 are all provided with first mounting holes 108, and the electrolysis device 10 can be fixed inside the body of the floor scrubber by screws passing through the multiple first mounting holes 108.
[0076] Secondly, based on the same inventive concept, embodiments of the present invention provide a floor scrubber body 3, referring to... Figure 10 As shown, it includes a fuselage body 20 and an electrolysis device 10 as described in the first aspect disposed on the fuselage body 20.
[0077] This embodiment improves the simplicity of the machine body by fixing the electrolysis device 10 to the main body 20. The electrolysis device 10 can be supplied with liquid by a water pump assembly (not shown in the figure) installed on the main body. The specific structure of the water pump assembly can be referred to the description in the prior art by those skilled in the art, and will not be repeated here.
[0078] In one specific embodiment, it also includes a first cover 30 and a second cover 40;
[0079] The first cover 30 and the second cover 40 are fixedly connected to the main body 20.
[0080] Compared with the prior art where the electrolysis device 10 is installed inside the cleaning liquid container, the present invention fixes the electrolysis device 10 in a modular manner on the machine body 20, and sets the floor scrubber body 3 as a split structure. By removing the first cover 30 or the second cover 40, the electrolysis device 1 can be replaced and repaired, thus improving maintenance efficiency.
[0081] In one specific embodiment, at least a portion of the first cover 30 and / or the second cover 40 corresponding to the electrolysis device 10 is made of a light-transmitting material.
[0082] In this embodiment, the electrolysis device 10 and the cleaning liquid container are set up separately and isolated from the cleaning liquid container.
