Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of pet supplies technology, and in particular to a blower / vacuum combo machine. Background Technology
[0002] Most vacuum cleaners on the market are used for pet grooming, care, and drying. They are compact and lightweight. However, the gripping parts are usually located on the main body to ensure strength and stability when lifting, which makes it inconvenient to pick up the dust cup. Users need to hold the dust cup cylinder to pick it up, resulting in a poor user experience. Alternatively, other gripping parts could be added to the dust cup, but this would lead to a more complex design and increased size. Summary of the Invention
[0003] Based on this, it is necessary to address the aforementioned technical problems in the existing technology by providing a blower and vacuum cleaner that shares a single grip component with the dust cup assembly and the main body assembly. This not only results in a simple design but also enables the machine to be lifted and balanced.
[0004] To solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:
[0005] This application provides a blower / vacuum combo machine, including a main body assembly and a dust cup assembly detachably mounted on the main body assembly. The blower / vacuum combo machine also includes a handle and a locking / releasing assembly. The handle is mounted on the dust cup assembly and serves as a gripping component for the blower / vacuum combo machine or as a gripping component for the dust cup assembly. The locking / releasing assembly enables locking and releasing between the main body assembly and the dust cup assembly.

[0012] In one embodiment, the main body assembly includes a housing, which is hollow and includes a central portion with a motor assembly and extensions extending outward and upward along both sides of the central portion. The central portion and the extensions form a receiving groove, in which the dust cup assembly lies at least partially horizontally.
[0013] In one embodiment, the main body assembly further includes an air duct assembly, which includes an air inlet structure and an air outlet structure, which are disposed on the extension; the air inlet structure is provided with an airflow inlet, and the air outlet structure is provided with an airflow outlet.
[0014] In one embodiment, the air inlet structure is disposed on the upper part of the extension on one side of the housing, and the air outlet structure is disposed on the lower part of the extension on the other side of the housing.
[0015] In one embodiment, the air inlet structure is located within the projection of the dust cup assembly along its axial direction, and the air outlet structure is located within the projection of the motor assembly along its axial direction.
[0016] In one embodiment, the airflow enters from the airflow inlet, passes through the dust cup assembly and the motor assembly, and exits from the airflow outlet. The airflow direction in the dust cup assembly is the same as the airflow direction in the motor assembly, and the airflow pattern is arranged in a Z-shape.
[0017] In one embodiment, the dust cup assembly includes a dust cup and a dust cup cover movably disposed on one side of the dust cup.

[0082] To make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention can be practiced in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0083] It should be noted that when a component is said to be "fixed to" another component, it can be directly attached to the other component or there may be an intervening component. When a component is said to be "connected to" another component, it can be directly connected to the other component or there may be an intervening component. The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "left," "right," "up," "down," and similar expressions used in this document are for illustrative purposes only.
[0084] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the stated features. In the description of this application, "multiple" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified. In this application, " / " means "or".
[0085] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein in the description of the invention is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.
[0086] Currently, pet hair is mainly removed through manual cleaning or pet vacuum cleaners. Drying pet hair primarily involves wiping, blow-drying, using a pet salon, or using a home vacuum-blowing combo. The component arrangement of these combos and pet vacuum cleaners affects their appearance, capacity, noise level, and effectiveness. Existing vacuum-blowing combos suffer from two main problems: firstly, their overall horizontal or vertical dimensions are too large, resulting in an unattractive appearance; secondly, the unreasonable arrangement of components easily leads to motor clogging during use.
[0087] Based on this, the present invention provides a blower / vacuum combo machine, including a main body assembly and a dust cup assembly detachably mounted on the main body assembly, with a motor assembly housed within the main body assembly. The present invention arranges the motor assembly and dust cup assembly, which occupy most of the space of the entire machine, side by side, that is, the axial direction of the dust cup assembly is approximately parallel to the axial direction of the motor assembly, greatly reducing the overall size of the machine and resulting in an aesthetically pleasing appearance.
[0088] The motor assembly and dust cup assembly can be arranged vertically side-by-side, meaning they are aligned vertically along their axis and placed side-by-side; or they can be arranged horizontally side-by-side, meaning they are aligned horizontally along their axis and placed vertically side-by-side. However, regardless of the arrangement, both vertical and horizontal arrangements must consider the effective utilization of vacuum suction and noise levels to avoid a negative user experience. Specifically, for example... Figure 1-32 As shown, this is an embodiment where the motor assembly and dust cup assembly are arranged horizontally side by side. Figure 33-41 The image shows an embodiment where the motor assembly and dust cup assembly are arranged vertically side by side.
[0089] In this invention, the axial direction is defined as the centerline direction, that is, the axial direction of the dust cup assembly is the centerline direction of the dust cup assembly, and the axial direction of the motor assembly is the centerline direction of the motor assembly.
[0090] This invention achieves miniaturization and aesthetic appeal of the blow-and-suction integrated machine through component arrangement.
[0091] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0092] like Figure 1-32 As shown, the blower / vacuum combo unit of this embodiment includes a main body assembly 100 and a dust cup assembly 200. The dust cup assembly 200 is detachably mounted on the main body assembly 100.
[0093] Specifically, the dust cup assembly 200 includes a hollow dust cup 210 and a dust cup cover 220, and the main body assembly 100 includes a housing 110 and an air duct assembly 300, a filter assembly 400, a motor assembly 500, a first silencing assembly 600, a second silencing assembly 700, a power supply assembly 800, and electrical components 900 disposed within the housing 110.
[0094] like Figures 1 to 9As shown, the housing 110 is hollow and includes a horizontally extending central portion 111 and extension portions 112 extending outward and upward along the left and right sides of the central portion 111. The motor assembly 500 is basically disposed within the central portion 111. The central portion 111 and the extension portions 112 on both sides form a receiving groove 113. The receiving groove 113 is configured to gradually widen in the direction away from the central portion 111, that is, the structure of the receiving groove 113 is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, with the sides sloping inward from top to bottom. This configuration facilitates the insertion and removal of the dust cup assembly 200.
[0095] The dust cup assembly 200 is detachably disposed within the receiving groove 113. Specifically, during use, the dust cup assembly 200 is at least partially disposed within the receiving groove 113. The axial direction of the dust cup assembly 200 is approximately parallel to the axial direction of the motor assembly 500. In this embodiment, both the axial direction of the dust cup assembly 200 and the axial direction of the motor assembly 500 are horizontal and parallel to each other. The dust cup assembly 200 is configured to gradually widen in the direction away from the middle portion 111. That is, the structure of the dust cup assembly 200 is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, with both sides sloping inward from top to bottom. This configuration, in conjunction with the structure of the receiving groove 113 being wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, facilitates the insertion and removal of the dust cup assembly 200.
[0096] Furthermore, to effectively reduce the overall lateral length of the machine and ensure that there is still space within the extensions 112 on both sides of the motor assembly 500 to arrange other components while maximizing the capacity of the dust cup 210, this embodiment sets the overlap of the horizontal projections of the motor assembly 500 and the dust cup assembly 200 to be greater than or equal to 80%. Preferably, the overlap of the horizontal projections of the motor assembly 500 and the dust cup assembly 200 to be greater than or equal to 90%. Further, the ratio of the lateral length of the motor assembly 500 to the lateral length of the dust cup assembly 200 is 0.8-1.2. Preferably, the ratio is 0.8-1.
[0097] In some other specific embodiments, whether the motor assembly 500 is entirely located within the middle portion 111, or whether the air inlet or outlet related structures of the motor assembly 500 are partially located within the extensions 112 on both sides due to the component arrangement, the ratio of the lateral length of the motor assembly 500 to the lateral length of the middle portion 111 is 0.8-1.2. Preferably, the ratio of the lateral length of the motor assembly 500 to the lateral length of the middle portion 111 is 0.8-1, to free up more space for arranging the related components of the air duct assembly 300.
[0098] In some other specific embodiments, the maximum value of the lateral length and the maximum value of the lateral width of the upper part of the extension 112 on both sides of the dust cup assembly 200 are both less than or equal to the minimum value of the lateral length and the minimum value of the lateral width of the lower part of the extension 112 on both sides of the middle part 111. In this way, the extension 112 tends to shrink in lateral length and lateral width from bottom to top, so as to make the whole machine more compact and stable.
[0099] In some other specific embodiments, to maximize the dust cup capacity while ensuring the structural strength of the extension, the maximum lateral length of the receiving groove 113 located above the middle portion 111 is set to be 4-8 times the maximum lateral length of the upper portion of the extension 112. In some other specific embodiments, the maximum lateral width of the receiving groove 113 is less than or equal to the maximum lateral width of the dust cup 210 of the dust cup assembly 200.
[0100] In some other specific embodiments, the longitudinal height of the middle portion 111 is substantially equal to the longitudinal height of the dust cup assembly 200. Specifically, the ratio of the longitudinal height of the middle portion 111 to the longitudinal height of the dust cup 210 is 0.8-1.2.
[0101] like Figure 2 In this embodiment, the horizontal length is the dimension in the X direction (i.e., the axial direction of the dust cup assembly); the horizontal width is the dimension in the Y direction (i.e., the direction on the horizontal plane and perpendicular to the X direction in this embodiment); and the vertical height is the dimension in the Z direction (i.e., the direction perpendicular to the horizontal plane in this embodiment).
[0102] In some other specific embodiments, the length of the extensions 112 at both ends in the lateral direction can be set differently depending on the size and arrangement of the main components (air inlet structure 310, air outlet structure 330, first steering assembly 321, second steering assembly 323) housed in the extension 112.
[0103] like Figures 10 to 12As shown, the dust cup 210 has an air inlet 260 and an air outlet 270 arranged opposite to each other. In this embodiment, the air inlet 260 is provided on the left side of the dust cup 210 and communicates with the airflow inlet 312, while the air outlet 270 is provided on the right side of the dust cup 210 and communicates with the motor assembly 500. The dust cup cover 220 is movably disposed on the side of the dust cup 210 with the air inlet 260 via a pivot located on the dust cup 210. In this embodiment, the dust cup cover 220 is located on the left side of the dust cup 210, and the pivot is located above the dust cup 210, allowing the dust cup cover 220 to be opened or closed. Preferably, an air inlet channel is formed on the dust cup cover 220 and communicates with the air inlet 260. Specifically, the air inlet channel is located in the middle of the dust cup cover 220. In this embodiment, the dust cup 210 is also provided with an opening key 250 for opening or closing the dust cup cover 220. When the dust cup assembly 200 is mounted on the main body assembly 100, the opening key 250 is adapted to be received in a receiving groove on the upper surface of the main body assembly 100. Preferably, the receiving groove is located on the upper surface of the middle portion 111 of the housing 110, directly opposite the opening key 250. The specific structure of the opening key 250 for opening or closing the dust cup cover 220 is a conventional structure.
[0104] In this embodiment, the dust cup assembly 200 also includes a dust bag 230, which is detachably disposed within the dust cup 210. Specifically, the body of the dust bag 230 can be placed inside the dust cup 210, with the bag opening positioned at the air inlet 260. A relatively rigid material is provided near the bag opening to facilitate the secure fixing of the dust bag 230 by the structural cooperation of the dust cup body, dust cup cover 220, and air inlet 260, ensuring a firm and airtight fit between the bag opening and the air inlet 260. The dust bag 230 can be used as a consumable inside the dust cup 210; during cleaning, the user simply removes and discards the dust bag 230. In other specific embodiments, the dust cup 210 can also be used without the dust bag 230, requiring only periodic cleaning by the user.
[0105] In this embodiment, a baffle 240 is movably installed at the air inlet 260 of the dust cup 210. When the motor of the motor assembly 500 is working, the baffle 240 rotates unidirectionally in the direction of airflow, which can prevent the backflow of garbage. The area of the baffle 240 is slightly larger than the channel area of the air inlet 260, and the baffle 240 covers the air inlet 260. Specifically, the baffle 240 is installed at the air inlet 260 of the dust cup 210 via a snap-fit connector. When the dust bag 230 is used, the movable part of the baffle 240 extends into the inside of the bag body through the bag opening of the dust bag 230, without affecting the baffle 240's ability to prevent the backflow of garbage.
[0106] In existing technologies, gripping components are typically mounted on the main body assembly to ensure strength and stable extraction. However, this makes it inconvenient to handle the dust cup assembly, requiring users to grip the cylinder of the dust cup assembly, resulting in a poor user experience. Alternatively, additional gripping components could be mounted on the dust cup assembly, leading to a more complex design and increased size. In this embodiment, the blower / vacuum combo also includes a handle 280, which is mounted on the dust cup assembly 200. A locking / releasing assembly 830 (described below) is positioned between the main body assembly 100 and the dust cup assembly 200. When the locking / releasing assembly 830 is locked, the dust cup assembly 200 is fixedly mounted on the main body assembly 100, and the handle 280 allows the user to extract and move the entire machine. When the locking / releasing assembly 830 is released, the handle 280 allows the user to remove the dust cup assembly 200 from the main body assembly 100 for easy cleaning of the dust cup 210. After cleaning, the handle 280 allows the user to grip and reinstall the dust cup assembly 200 onto the main body assembly 100, providing convenient operation. Thus, depending on different usage needs, the handle 280 can be used as a grip for the whole machine or as a grip for the dust cup assembly. The whole machine is held securely, and the dust cup assembly is easy to pick up and install, with a simple design.
[0107] In this embodiment, the handle 280 is positioned above the dust cup assembly 200 and extends along the axis of the dust cup assembly 200, ensuring optimal force application for the user when retrieving the dust cup or the entire device. Furthermore, the main body assembly 100 houses a motor assembly 500, whose center of gravity is located below the dust cup assembly 200 and within the horizontal projection range of the dust cup assembly 200. This arrangement ensures that when the entire device is retrieved, the heaviest component, the motor assembly 500, is positioned below the handle 280, i.e., the user's point of force, guaranteeing stability and comfort during retrieval.
[0108] In this embodiment, the handle 280 extends along the axial direction of the dust cup assembly 200 and is located in the middle of the dust cup assembly 200 to ensure that the force is balanced when the whole machine is lifted. Since the axial direction of the dust cup assembly 200 is approximately parallel to the axial direction of the motor assembly 500, the extension direction of the handle 280 is also approximately parallel to the axial direction of the motor assembly 500. Furthermore, since the overlap of the horizontal projections of the motor assembly 500 and the dust cup assembly 200 is greater than or equal to 80%, the handle 280 is located in the middle of the dust cup assembly 200, so that the center of gravity of the motor assembly 500 can be located within the length of the handle 280. For the whole machine, most of the weight is on the motor assembly 500. The above-mentioned setting direction and position of the handle 280 can better ensure balance when the whole machine is lifted and moved, and also improve the user's grip experience. In some other specific embodiments, the handle 280 is located between the extensions 112 on both sides and is in the middle of the main body assembly 100 in both the lateral length direction and the lateral width direction, thereby improving the aesthetics while ensuring balance.
[0109] In this embodiment, the handle 280 avoids the dust cup cover 220 and is located above the dust cup 210. The lateral length of the handle 280 is greater than half the lateral length of the dust cup 210 to improve user grip comfort. Optionally, the lateral length of the handle 280 is 2 / 3 to 1 / 3 of the lateral length of the dust cup 210. In some other specific embodiments, the handle 280 protrudes from the dust cup 210 for easy user use. Optionally, a relief groove can also be provided on the dust cup 210 so that the handle 280 can be retracted into the relief groove when not in use. In some other specific embodiments, the handle 280 is formed into the dust cup 210 and does not protrude from the cup body of the dust cup 210. For example, a groove is provided on the cup body of the dust cup 210 for the user's hand to reach in and extract.
[0110] like Figure 13-14 As shown, the air duct assembly 300 in this embodiment includes an air inlet structure 310, an air conveying structure 320, and an air outlet structure 330.
[0111] An air inlet structure 310 is disposed on an extension 112 located on one side of the housing 110, and an air outlet structure 330 is disposed on an extension 112 on the other side of the housing. The air inlet structure 310 is located within the projection of the dust cup assembly 200 along its axial direction, and the air outlet structure 330 is located within the projection of the motor assembly 500 along its axial direction.
[0112] The air inlet structure 310 is provided with an airflow inlet 312, and the air outlet structure 330 is provided with an airflow outlet 332. Airflow enters from the airflow inlet 312, passes through the dust cup assembly 200, the air conveying structure 320, and the motor assembly 500, and flows out from the airflow outlet 332. The airflow direction in the dust cup assembly 200 is the same as the airflow direction in the motor assembly 500. The airflow is redirected by the air conveying structure 320. Overall, the airflow trend is arranged in a Z-shape. Here, the airflow direction in the dust cup assembly 200 refers to the direction of the line connecting the air inlet 260 and the air outlet 270 of the dust cup assembly 200, and the airflow direction in the motor assembly 500 refers to the direction of the line connecting the air inlet and the air outlet of the motor assembly 500.
[0113] Specifically, the air inlet structure 310 is located on the upper part of the extension 112 on the left side of the housing 110, and its airflow inlet 120 is connected to the air inlet 260 on the dust cup 210. The air delivery structure 320 includes a first steering assembly 321, a straight-path assembly 322, and a second steering assembly 323 connected in sequence. The first steering assembly 321 is disposed on the same side of the extension 112 as the air outlet structure 330. In this embodiment, the first steering assembly 321 is located on the upper part of the extension 112 on the right side of the housing 110 and is connected to the air outlet 270 on the dust cup 210. The straight-path assembly 322 is located in the middle part 111 of the housing 110 and between the dust cup assembly 200 and the motor assembly 500. One end is connected to the first steering assembly 321, and the other end is connected to the second steering assembly 323. The second steering assembly 323 is disposed on the extension 112 on the same side as the air inlet structure 310. In this embodiment, the second steering assembly 323 is located at the lower part of the extension 112 on the left side of the housing 110 and communicates with the air inlet of the motor assembly 500. The air outlet structure 330 is disposed at the lower part of the extension 112 on the opposite side of the air inlet structure 310. In this embodiment, the air outlet structure 330 is located at the lower part of the extension 112 on the right side of the housing 110 and communicates with the air outlet of the motor assembly 500.
[0114] In this embodiment, by providing an extension 112 on the housing 110, the air inlet structure 310 and the air outlet structure 330 are reasonably arranged in the extensions 112 on both sides. On the one hand, this can improve space utilization and achieve miniaturization and aesthetics of the whole machine. On the other hand, it can maximize the capacity of the dust cup assembly 200.
[0115] This embodiment, through the reasonable arrangement of the dust cup assembly 200, the air duct assembly 300, and the motor assembly 500, enables dust to flow and be collected fully with the airflow in the dust cup 210. Furthermore, the air outlet 270 of the dust cup assembly 200 is far away from the air inlet of the motor assembly 500, thus solving the problem in the prior art where hair is easily directly attracted to the motor inlet and causes blockage.
[0116] In this embodiment, the motor assembly 500 is disposed in the middle part 111 of the housing 110. The axis of the motor assembly 500 extends in the horizontal direction. The motor assembly 500 is located below the dust cup assembly 200. The airflow direction in the dust cup assembly 200 is parallel to the axis of the motor assembly 500 and is horizontal.
[0117] In this embodiment, the motor assembly 500 includes a motor housing 510 and a motor 520. The motor 520 is disposed inside the motor housing 510. The motor housing 510 connects the second steering assembly 323 and the air outlet structure 330. The structure of the motor housing 510 is as follows: Figure 15-16 As shown.
[0118] To achieve better noise reduction, the structure of the motor assembly 500 is further optimized in this embodiment. Specifically, the motor assembly 500 also includes a partition 530, which divides the motor housing 510 into a first space 540 and a second space 550. The first space 540 is adjacent to and connected to the second steering assembly 323, and the second space 550 is adjacent to and connected to the air outlet structure 330.
[0119] The first space 540 is provided with a receiving cavity 541 and an airflow cavity 542 surrounding the receiving cavity 541. The motor 520 is disposed within the receiving cavity 541. The receiving cavity 541 and the airflow cavity 542 are connected through a first notch 543, which is shown in the drawing as being located at the upper part of the receiving cavity 541. The receiving cavity 541 is connected to the second steering assembly 323. The first space 540 and the second space 550 are connected through a second notch 544 disposed on the partition 530. Specifically, the airflow cavity 542 of the first space 540 is connected to the second space 550 through the second notch 544, which is shown in the drawing as being located at the lower part of the partition 530. The second space 550 is connected to the air outlet structure 330.
[0120] In this embodiment, the motor housing 510 is configured with a converging flared opening on the side communicating with the air outlet structure 330. This converging flared opening structure on the motor housing 510 saves space for installing electrical components 900 such as the negative thermistor 930 and the negative ion generator 910.
[0121] In this embodiment, the filter assembly 400 includes a filter screen 410, a filter cotton 420, and a HEPA filter assembly 430.
[0122] The filter screen 410 and filter cotton 420 are stacked on the dust cup 210 and located at the air outlet 270, with the filter cotton 420 located outside the filter screen 410. The HEPA assembly 430 is disposed on the housing 110 and located at the inlet of the air supply structure 320. In this embodiment, the filter assembly 400 is provided to prevent hair from easily clogging the motor assembly 500.
[0123] In this embodiment, the first noise reduction component 600 includes a first noise reduction cotton 610, which surrounds the motor 520 and is located within the accommodating cavity 541. This embodiment uses noise reduction cotton to wrap around the motor 520, reducing noise at its source.
[0124] In this embodiment, the second noise reduction component 700 includes a noise reduction frame 710 and a second noise reduction cotton 720. The noise reduction frame 710 is located in the second space 550, and the second noise reduction cotton 720 is disposed on the noise reduction frame 710.
[0125] like Figure 17 As shown, specifically, the silencing frame 710 includes a main body 711 and an extension frame 712. The main body 711 horizontally divides the second space 550 into a third space 560 and a fourth space 570 that are arranged on the left and right and connected. The third space 560 is adjacent to and connected to the first space 540.
[0126] The extension frame 712 extends towards and connects to the partition 530. The extension frame 712 longitudinally divides the third space 560 into a fifth space 580 and a sixth space 590 that are arranged vertically and are connected. In the attached drawings, the fifth space 580 is shown as the upper space, and the sixth space 590 is shown as the lower space. The sixth space 590 is adjacent to and connected to the first space 540.
[0127] To achieve better fixation and support, this embodiment provides ribs on the surface of the partition 530 facing the muffler frame 710 for inserting the edge of the extension frame 712 of the muffler frame 710.
[0128] The extension frame 712 is provided with a first silencing hole 713, through which the fifth space 580 and the sixth space 590 are connected. The main body 711 is provided with a second silencing hole 714, through which the fifth space 580 and the fourth space 570 are connected.
[0129] The second sound-absorbing cotton 720 of the second sound-absorbing component 700 is disposed on the sound-absorbing frame 710. Specifically, the second sound-absorbing cotton can be disposed on the extension frame 712 and located in front of the second sound-absorbing hole 714 within the fifth space 580, or it can be disposed within the fourth space 570 and have the same diameter as the motor housing 510, or it can be disposed in both locations simultaneously. The sound-absorbing cotton is disposed here, near the outlet, to reduce the consumption of high-frequency noise.
[0130] In this embodiment, both the first silencing hole 713 and the second silencing hole 714 are configured in a honeycomb shape.
[0131] In this embodiment, a second noise reduction component 700 is provided to reduce the consumption of high-frequency noise, and honeycomb-shaped noise reduction holes are provided to reduce wind speed and reduce wind noise.
[0132] In summary, the airflow path within the motor assembly 500 is as follows: the airflow enters the receiving cavity 541 within the first space 540 via the second steering assembly 323, passes through the first silencing assembly 600 and enters the airflow flow cavity 542 through the first notch 543, then enters the sixth space 590 through the second notch 544, passes through the first silencing hole 713 and enters the fifth space 580, passes through the silencing cotton of the second silencing assembly 700 and the second silencing hole 714 and enters the fourth space 570, then passes through another silencing cotton of the second silencing assembly 700, and finally flows out from the air outlet structure 330.
[0133] In this embodiment, the electrical component 900 includes a negative ion generator 910, a positive thermistor 920, and a negative thermistor 930. The negative ion generator 910 and the negative thermistor 930 are mounted on the constricted flared structure of the motor housing 510, saving space. The positive thermistor 920 can be inserted into the main body 711 of the muffler frame 710 via a mounting bracket and a limiting rib.
[0134] This embodiment features a sound-absorbing frame 710 with sound-absorbing holes. Its structure cleverly integrates sound-absorbing cotton and electrical components 900, resulting in a simple structure and concentrated functions for the sound-absorbing frame 710.
[0135] In this embodiment, the power supply assembly 800 is disposed within the housing 110. The power supply assembly 800 is electrically connected to the motor 520 and the electrical components 900.
[0136] In this embodiment, the blow-drying and suction machine also includes accessory components, which include suction attachments and blow-drying attachments.
[0137] Specifically, the lint suction attachment is detachably connected to the air inlet structure 310. The lint suction attachment includes electric clippers, a comb, etc. The air inlet structure 310 is provided with a trigger device 311. In this embodiment, the trigger device 311 is an electrical pin. When the lint suction attachment is connected to the air inlet structure, the trigger device 311 is turned on, and the power supply component 500 drives the lint suction attachment to work for lint suction.
[0138] The hair dryer attachment is detachably connected to the air outlet structure 330. The hair dryer attachment includes a nozzle, and the air outlet structure 330 is equipped with a trigger switch 331. When the hair dryer attachment is connected to the air outlet structure 330, the trigger switch is turned on, and the electrical components negative ion generator 910 and negative thermistor 930 are activated to generate negative ions and hot air for drying hair and preventing static electricity.
[0139] In this embodiment, in order to ensure effective sealing, a first sealing element 001 is provided between the dust cup assembly 200 and the air inlet structure 310, and a second sealing element 002 is provided between the dust cup assembly 200 and the HEPA assembly 430.
[0140] In this embodiment, to ensure the dust cup assembly 200 is locked, a locking mechanism is provided between the dust cup assembly 200 and the main body assembly 100 to lock the relative position between them. There are two locking mechanisms, located on the left and right opposite sides of the dust cup assembly 200, respectively.
[0141] like Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, each locking mechanism includes an opening, a coupling part, and a return spring. The opening is located on the lower side of the dust cup assembly 200, which are the sides of the dust cup assembly 200 facing the two side extensions 112. The coupling part is slidably mounted on the housing 110, and its position corresponds to the position of the opening and they can engage with each other. The coupling part can extend from the through holes on the two side surfaces of the extensions 112 of the housing 110 facing the dust cup assembly 200 to engage with the opening. The return spring is mounted on the coupling part and provides a restoring force to the coupling part to move in the direction of the receiving groove 113. In the initial state, the dust cup assembly 200 is still separated from the main body assembly 100, and the coupling part extends out of the housing 110 through the through holes on the side surfaces of the extensions 112. When the dust cup assembly 200 needs to be installed, press the dust cup assembly 200 downwards. Simultaneously, the coupling parts on both sides are pressed by the dust cup assembly 200 and slide away from the receiving groove 113. After the dust cup assembly 200 is installed in place, the coupling parts move towards the receiving groove 113 under the action of the return spring and engage in the opening. The dust cup assembly 200 is engaged with the housing 11 through the cooperation of the opening and the coupling parts.
[0142] The coupling portion includes a first coupling portion 8311 and a second coupling portion 8321; the reset spring includes a first reset spring 8340 and a second reset spring 8350; the opening includes a first opening 8210 and a second opening 8220; the through hole includes a first through hole 8111 and a second through hole 8112.
[0143] This embodiment enables the dust cup assembly 200 to be easy to install while maintaining a locked state when held in the hand, ensuring stability when lifted.
[0144] To strengthen the secure connection between the dust cup assembly 200 and the main body assembly 100, and to prevent the main body assembly 100 from falling when the user lifts the dust cup assembly 200 due to accidental contact with the release control element 8330, this embodiment also includes a manual locking button for locking according to user needs and the requirements of the application scenario.
[0145] This embodiment of the machine has the function of blowing and sucking in one, which can both suck up and blow out pet hair. The blow-drying function includes heating and negative ion functions, which can quickly blow out pet hair while preventing pet hair from becoming frizzy due to static electricity.
[0146] In typical blower and vacuum cleaners, the dust cup assembly is usually fixed at a single point, making the whole unit unstable. In addition, when removing the dust cup assembly, the user needs to hold down the housing or dust cup removal button with one hand and remove the dust cup assembly with the other hand, which makes it inconvenient to use.
[0147] To address the aforementioned issues, this application provides a blower-vacuum integrated machine. By providing a locking and releasing component on the housing and coupling the locking and releasing component with at least two parts on the dust cup component, the dust cup component is securely fixed. Simultaneously, external force can be applied to the locking and releasing component to move the parts on the locking and releasing component coupled with the dust cup component away from the dust cup component, thereby releasing the dust cup component.
[0148] like Figure 18 As shown, this application embodiment provides a blower / vacuum combo machine. The machine collects sucked-in dust and pet hair in a dust cup assembly 200. When the dust cup assembly 200 is full, it is removed from the receiving slot 113 for emptying and cleaning. After drying, it can be reinstalled in the receiving slot 113. Furthermore, the blower / vacuum combo machine also includes a locking assembly 830, disposed in the housing 110, configured to couple with at least two portions of the dust cup assembly 200 to lock the dust cup assembly 200. The locking assembly 830 is also configured to release the dust cup assembly 200 by moving the portions coupled to it away from the dust cup assembly 200 under external force.
[0149] For example, such as Figure 19 and Figure 20 As shown, the two side walls of the receiving groove 113 (i.e., the side walls of the two side extensions 112 facing the receiving groove 113) are respectively provided with a first through hole 8111 and a second through hole 8112. The locking and releasing assembly 830 passes through the first through hole 8111 and the second through hole 8112 and couples with at least two parts on the dust cup assembly 200. Thus, the locking and releasing of the dust cup assembly 200 can be achieved by controlling the coupling state between the locking and releasing assembly 830 and the at least two parts. For example, when the locking and releasing assembly 830 is tightly engaged with the at least two parts (e.g., snap-fit engagement, latching engagement, etc.), the dust cup assembly 200 can be securely locked, and when the locking and releasing assembly 830 is moved away from the at least two parts, the dust cup assembly 200 can be released.
[0150] Optional, see below Figure 19 and Figure 20When the dust cup assembly 200 is not placed in the receiving slot 113, the first part of the locking assembly 830 passes through the first through hole 8111, and the second part of the locking assembly 830 passes through the second through hole 8112. When the dust cup assembly 200 is placed in the receiving slot 113, at least two coupling parts on the dust cup assembly 200 can act on the first part and the second part respectively, so that the dust cup assembly 200 and the locking assembly 830 can be tightly fitted, thereby completing the installation of the dust cup assembly 200.
[0151] For example, the locking and releasing assembly 830 includes a first coupling portion 8311 and a second coupling portion 8321 coupled to the dust cup assembly 200; wherein, the locking and releasing assembly 830 is configured to release the dust cup assembly 200 by causing the first coupling portion 8311 and the second coupling portion 8321 to move synchronously away from the dust cup assembly 200 under the action of an external force. Figure 19 and Figure 20 As shown, the first coupling part 8311 passes through the first through hole 8111, and the second coupling part 8321 passes through the second through hole 8112. The first coupling part 8311 and the second coupling part 8321 are located on opposite sides of the receiving groove 113. By simultaneously moving the first coupling part 8311 and the second coupling part 8321 away from the part coupled to the dust cup assembly 200, it is beneficial to improve the removal efficiency of the dust cup assembly 200 while ensuring stable placement of the dust cup assembly 200. In some embodiments of this application, the second coupling part 8321 is different from the first coupling part 8311.
[0152] For example, the housing 110 is also provided with a control board (not shown) for controlling the working state of the blow-dryer. The control board can switch between blowing, vacuuming (hair), and turning off states, and / or adjust the blowing and suction power. For example, the receiving slot 113 can be connected to the airflow inlet of the blow-dryer, and a filter assembly such as a metal mesh and filter cotton is provided on the side away from the airflow inlet to prevent dust and hair from leaving the receiving slot 113.
[0153] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 21 and Figure 22As shown, the locking and releasing assembly 830 includes: a first control lever 8310 having a first coupling portion 8311 coupled to a first locking portion 8211 on the dust cup assembly 200; a second control lever 8320 having a second coupling portion 8321 coupled to a second locking portion 8221 on the dust cup assembly 200; and a release control element 8330 coupled to the first control lever 8310 and the second control lever 8320, configured to, under the action of an external force, move the first control lever 8310 relative to the dust cup assembly 200 to move the first coupling portion 8311 away from the first locking portion 8211, and simultaneously move the second control lever 8320 relative to the dust cup assembly 200 to move the second coupling portion 8321 away from the second locking portion 8221 to release the dust cup assembly 200.
[0154] Optionally, the top surfaces of the first coupling part 8311 and the second coupling part 8321 can both be set as inclined surfaces. When the dust cup assembly 200 is placed into the receiving groove 113, the dust cup assembly 200 will act on the top inclined surfaces of each coupling part, causing each coupling part to retract through the corresponding through hole to leave space for the dust cup assembly 200 to be placed. When the dust cup assembly 200 is attached to the bottom of the receiving groove 113, each coupling part will cooperate with the locking part in the opening at both ends of the dust cup assembly 200, thereby locking the dust cup assembly 200.
[0155] Optional, see Figure 23 The first control lever 8310 and the second control lever 8320 are separately disposed; the release control element 8330 is disposed between the first control lever 8310 and the second control lever 8320, and has a first inclined surface 83321 and a second inclined surface 83322 on both sides that contact the first control lever 8310 and the second control lever 8320, respectively; wherein, when the dust cup assembly 200 is in the locked state, the first control lever 8310 contacts the first inclined surface 83321, and the second control lever 8320 contacts the second inclined surface 83322. Optionally, such as Figure 23 As shown, the contact surface on the first control lever 8310 corresponding to the first inclined surface 83321 can also be an inclined surface, and the contact surface on the second control lever 8320 corresponding to the second inclined surface 83322 can also be an inclined surface. By setting at least one mating surface between the release control element 8330 and the control lever as an inclined surface, it is beneficial to convert the vertical movement of the release control element 8330 when it is pressed into a lateral movement that moves the first control lever 8310 and the second control lever 8320 away from the dust cup assembly 200, thereby realizing the release of the dust cup assembly 200.
[0156] Specifically, such as Figure 24As shown, when an external force along the first direction D1 is applied to the release control element 8330, the release control element 8330 will move along the first direction D1, which will drive the first control rod 8310 to move along the second direction D2 and simultaneously drive the second control rod 8320 to move along the third direction D3. The movement of the first control rod 8310 will cause the first coupling part 8311 to move along the second direction D2, thereby moving away from the first locking part 8211. The movement of the second control rod 8320 will cause the second coupling part 8321 to move along the third direction D3, thereby moving away from the second locking part 8221. In this way, the dust cup assembly 200 can be released. By controlling the locking and releasing of the locking and releasing assembly 830 and the dust cup assembly 200 through the above-mentioned two-rod linkage, the release structure and steps of the dust cup assembly 200 are simplified, thereby improving the removal efficiency of the dust cup assembly 200.
[0157] Optionally, the lengths of the first control lever 8310 and the second control lever 8320 can be determined based on the dimensions and positions of other components in the blow-dry machine. For example, when the control board of the blow-dry machine is positioned above the second control lever 8320, the length of the second control lever 8320 can be set to be longer to extend beyond the control board, allowing the second coupling part 8321 to pass through the second through hole 8112 and couple with the second locking part 8221. It is understood that in other embodiments, if the control board is positioned above the first control lever 8310, the length of the first control lever 8310 can be set to be longer; if the control board is positioned in other suitable positions within the blow-dry machine, the first control lever 8310 and the second control lever 8320 can also be set to be of equal length.
[0158] Optional, see Figure 23 and Figure 24 The release control element 8330 may include a button 8331 and a push rod 8332 connected to the button 8331. The push rod 8332 has a first inclined surface 83321 and a second inclined surface 83322 on both sides. Optionally, a return spring (not shown) may be provided between the button 8331 and the push rod 8332. The other end of the return spring may be connected to the housing 110 for resetting the button 8331 and the push rod 8332 after the button 8331 is pressed.
[0159] In some embodiments of this application, see Figure 23 When the dust cup assembly 200 is in the locked state, the release control element 8330 is in the first position P1; see also Figure 24When the dust cup assembly 200 is in the released state, the release control element 8330 is located in a second position P2, different from the first position P1, so that the dust cup assembly 200 is loosely located in the receiving groove 113. The second position P2 is obtained by limiting the release control element 8330 by the first control lever 8310 after the first coupling part 8311 has moved away from the first locking part 8211 by a first predetermined distance, and / or by limiting the release control element 8330 by the second control lever 8320 after the second coupling part 8321 has moved away from the second locking part 8221 by a second predetermined distance. Optionally, "the dust cup assembly 200 is loosely located in the receiving groove 113" means that the dust cup assembly 200 is not locked and can be disturbed by external force within the receiving groove 113; that is, the user can manually remove the dust cup assembly 200 from the receiving groove 113 at this time. Optionally, the first predetermined distance can be obtained based on the slope of the first inclined plane 83321 and the distance the release control element 8330 moves from the first position P1 to the second position P2. Similarly, the second predetermined distance can be obtained based on the slope of the second inclined plane 83322 and the distance the release control element 8330 moves from the first position P1 to the second position P2.
[0160] By releasing the dust cup assembly 200 and positioning it in a loose position that allows for easy removal by the user, the user's hands can be freed, enabling one-handed removal and placement of the dust cup assembly 200. Specifically, the user can first press the release control element 8330 with one hand. After hearing the sound of the release control element 8330 being limited by the first control lever 8310 and / or the second control lever 8320, the user can release the release control element 8330 and then lift the dust cup assembly 200 out of the receiving slot 113 with one hand. This improves the convenience of removing and placing the dust cup assembly 200, thereby enhancing the user experience of the blower / vacuum combo.
[0161] Optional, such as Figure 24As shown, there is one and only one control lever with a first limiting part 8312 at one end near the release control element 8330, and a second limiting part 83323 at the other end of the release control element 8330 near the control lever. When the release control element 8330 moves from the first position P1 to the second position P2, the first limiting part 8312 and the second limiting part 83323 cooperate to limit the release control element 8330. When both sides of the release control element 8330 are limited, it is easy for one side to disengage while the other side remains limited when the user's force to lift the dust cup assembly 200 is uneven. This is not conducive to the reset of the release control element 8330 and affects the reset of the first control lever 8310 and the second control lever 8320, thereby affecting the subsequent locking action of the locking and releasing assembly 830. Therefore, by providing the first limiting part 8312 only on the first control lever 8310 or only on the second control lever 8320, the aforementioned adverse situations can be effectively avoided, ensuring the secure locking and quick loading and unloading of the dust cup assembly 200. Optionally, such as Figure 24 As shown, the first limiting part 8312 includes a first step, and the second limiting part includes a second step disposed opposite to the first step. When the release control element 8330 moves from the first position P1 to the second position P2, the first step and the second step engage with each other to limit the release control element 8330.
[0162] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 27 and Figure 28As shown, the dust cup assembly 200 has a first opening 8210 at one end near the first coupling portion 8311, and a first locking portion 8211 is provided in the first opening 8210. The dust cup assembly 200 has a second opening 8220 at one end near the second coupling portion 8321, and a second locking portion 8221 is provided in the second opening 8221. In some embodiments of this application, one of the first opening 8210 and the second opening 8220 is provided on the dust cup cover 220 of the dust cup assembly 200. When the release control element 8330 moves from the first position P1 to the second position P2, at least one of the first control lever 8310 and the second control lever 8320 will limit it. In order to release the limit on the release control element 8330 and enable it to reset, at least one of the first coupling part 8311 and the second coupling part 8321 is provided to be in a partially coupled state: when the release control element 8330 moves to the second position, at least one coupling part will not retract completely from the corresponding opening, but a part of the coupling part will still pass through the corresponding opening and extend above the corresponding locking part. This facilitates the actuation of at least one coupling part when the dust cup assembly 200 is subsequently lifted, causing at least one coupling part to continue moving away from the corresponding locking part to drive the first limiting part 8312 to restrict the second limiting part 83323, thereby releasing the control element 8330 and moving it back to the first position P1 in the opposite direction of the first direction D1, i.e., resetting. At the same time, the first control lever 8310 and the second control lever 8320 also move back to the corresponding positions when the dust cup assembly 200 is in the locked state in the opposite directions of the second direction D2 and the third direction D3, respectively.
[0163] In this embodiment, as Figure 24-28 As shown, a first limiting portion 8312 is provided only on the first control lever 8310. Correspondingly, the first coupling portion 8311 of the first control lever 8310 is provided in a partially coupled state, such that when the release control element 8330 moves from the first position P1 to the second position P2, part of the first coupling portion 8311 retracts through the first opening 8210, and part of the first coupling portion 8311 passes through the first opening 8210 and extends above the first locking portion 8211; and the second coupling portion 8321 retracts through the second opening 8220, and the second coupling portion 8321 leaves the second opening 8220, releasing its coupling with the second locking portion 8221. Of course, the first limiting portion 8312 can also be provided only on the second control lever 8320, and correspondingly, the second coupling portion 8321 of the second control lever 8320 is provided in a partially coupled state. Further, as... Figure 29 and Figure 30As shown, when the dust cup assembly 200 is lifted and disengaged from the receiving groove 113 in the released state, the first locking part 8211 of the dust cup assembly 200 actuates the first coupling part 8311, causing the first coupling part 8311 to move away from the first locking part 8211 again along the second direction D2 under the drive of the dust cup assembly 200. The movement of the first control rod 8310 causes the first limiting part 8312 at the other end of the first control rod 8310 to move away from the second limiting part 83323 along the second direction D2, thereby releasing the limiting of the release control element 8330 and resetting the release control element 8330 (at this time, since the second coupling part 8321 has been decoupled from the second locking part 8221, the second coupling part 8321 is not actuated). It can be seen that when the dust cup assembly is lifted and disengaged from the receiving groove 113 along the fourth direction D4, the release control element 8330 resets, thereby improving the picking and putting efficiency of the dust cup assembly 200.
[0164] Optional, such as Figure 29 As shown, at least one coupling part (such as the first coupling part 8311) is provided with a third inclined surface 83111. When the dust cup assembly 200 is lifted and disengaged from the receiving groove 113 in the released state, at least one locking part (such as the first locking part 8211) abuts against the third inclined surface 83111 and moves relative to the third inclined surface 83111 to drive at least one coupling part (such as the first coupling part 8311) away from the corresponding locking part. By providing the third inclined surface 83111, the movement of the dust cup assembly 200 along the fourth direction D4 can act on the first coupling part 8311 through a reaction force, and cause the first coupling part 8311 to move further away from the first locking part 8211 along the second direction D2.
[0165] Optional, such as Figure 29 As shown, at least one locking part (such as the first locking part 8211) is provided with a fourth inclined surface 82111. When the dust cup assembly 200 is lifted and disengaged from the receiving groove 113 in the released state, the fourth inclined surface 82111 abuts against the corresponding coupling part (such as the first coupling part 8311) and moves relative to the corresponding coupling part to drive at least one coupling part (such as the first coupling part 8311) away from the corresponding locking part. By providing the fourth inclined surface 82111, the movement of the dust cup assembly 200 along the fourth direction D4 can act on the first coupling part 8311 through a reaction force, and cause the first coupling part 8311 to move further away from the first locking part 8211 along the second direction D2.
[0166] Optionally, at least one set of coupling portions (such as the first coupling portion 8311) and locking portions (such as the first locking portion 8211) are respectively provided with a third inclined surface 83111 and a fourth inclined surface 82111. When the dust cup assembly 200 is lifted and disengaged from the receiving groove 113 in the released state, the first locking portion 8211 first abuts against the third inclined surface 83111 and moves relative to the third inclined surface 83111 until it leaves the third inclined surface 83111. Then, the fourth inclined surface 82111 abuts against the first coupling portion 8311 and moves relative to the first coupling portion 8311 until the fourth inclined surface 82111 disengages from the first coupling portion 8311. By providing the third inclined surface 83111 and the fourth inclined surface 82111, the movement of the dust cup assembly 200 along the fourth direction D4 can act on the first coupling portion 8311 through a reaction force, and cause the first coupling portion 8311 to move in multiple segments along the second direction D2 and further away from the first locking portion 8211.
[0167] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 23 As shown, the blower / vacuum combo machine also includes a first return spring 8340 connected at both ends to the first control lever 8310 and the housing 110 respectively, and a second return spring 8350 connected at both ends to the second control lever 8320 and the housing 110 respectively. The first return spring 8340 and the second return spring 8350 are respectively configured to drive the corresponding control lever to reset after the dust cup assembly 200 is disengaged from the receiving slot 113. Optionally, when the dust cup assembly 200 is removed, the first return spring 8340 and the second return spring 8350 will respectively drive the first control lever 8310 and the second control lever 8320 to return to the state of being in contact with the inclined surfaces on both sides of the release control element 8330, which is also the position when the dust cup assembly 200 is in the locked state, to wait for the dust cup assembly 200 to be put back in. By setting the return spring, the locking and releasing assembly 830 can quickly return to the locked working position after the dust cup assembly 200 is removed, which facilitates the locking of the dust cup assembly 200 after it is put in, and improves the efficiency of picking up and putting down the dust cup assembly 200.
[0168] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 31 and Figure 32As shown, the bottom of the receiving groove 113 has a third opening 8113. The blower-vacuum combo also includes an extension mechanism 840, which is located on the housing 110 and corresponds to the third opening 8113. The extension mechanism 840 is configured to extend at least partially out of the third opening 8113 when the dust cup assembly 200 is in the released state. When there is significant friction between the dust cup assembly 200 and the receiving groove 113, the user needs to use their other hand to hold the housing 110 to remove the dust cup assembly 200. Therefore, to achieve better one-handed removal, the aforementioned extension mechanism 840 is provided to assist the dust cup assembly 200 in being lifted a certain distance during removal, thus facilitating the user to remove the dust cup assembly 200 from the receiving groove 113 with one hand.
[0169] Optionally, the extension mechanism 840 includes an actuating block 841 and an elastic element 842 connected to the actuating block 841. The actuating block 841 is correspondingly arranged with the third opening 8113, and the end of the elastic element 842 away from the actuating block 841 is connected to the housing 110. When the dust cup assembly 200 is in the locked state, the actuating block 841 is restricted below the third opening 8113 under the action of the dust cup assembly 200, and the elastic element 842 is in a compressed state. When the dust cup assembly 200 is in the released state, the actuating block 841 extends out of the third opening 8113 under the action of the elastic element 842. Thus, when the release control element 8330 is pressed, the restrictive effect of the dust cup assembly 200 on the actuating block 841 is weakened, so the elastic element 842 can apply a pushing force to the actuating block 841 to push it out of the third opening 8113, and the dust cup assembly 200 can be lifted up under the action of the actuating block 841 for easy removal by the user. Optionally, the height of the action block 841 should not be set too high, for example, it should not exceed the height at which the dust cup assembly 200 is directly pushed out of the receiving groove 113.
[0170] It should be noted that when setting the aforementioned limiting step and actuating ramp, the limiting process of the step and the actuating process of the ramp also exist during the entire process of picking up and putting down the dust cup assembly 200. However, these two processes will be completed together in a short time as the action block 841 pops out, which is conducive to the rapid removal of the dust cup assembly 200.
[0171] The motor assembly and dust cup assembly of the aforementioned blower / vacuum combo machine are arranged horizontally side-by-side. The following will describe an implementation method where the motor assembly and dust cup assembly are arranged vertically side-by-side, as follows: Figure 33-41 As shown, the motor assembly and dust cup assembly are arranged side by side on the left and right.
[0172] The blower and vacuum unit includes: a main body assembly 100', a dust cup assembly 200', and a handle 280' disposed on the main body assembly 100'. The main body assembly 100' includes a housing 110'. The dust cup assembly 200' is detachably disposed on the housing 110'. The handle 280' is located above the housing 110' and is used for lifting the entire unit.
[0173] Furthermore, a motor assembly 500' is disposed within the housing 110'. The axial direction of the motor assembly 500' is approximately parallel to the axial direction of the dust cup assembly 200', in order to reduce the overall horizontal or vertical dimensions of the machine, making it more concise and compact. In this embodiment, the motor assembly 500' and the dust cup assembly 200' are arranged side by side, that is, the axial direction of the motor assembly 500' and the axial direction of the dust cup assembly 200' are both perpendicular to each other and parallel to each other.
[0174] Furthermore, the housing 110' is also provided with an air inlet structure 310' and an air outlet structure 330'. The air inlet structure 310' is located on the side of the dust cup assembly 200' away from the motor assembly 500', and the air outlet structure 330' is located on the side of the motor assembly 500' away from the dust cup assembly 200', so that the airflow smoothly enters from the air inlet structure 310', passes through the dust cup assembly 200' and the motor assembly 500' in sequence, and then flows out from the air outlet structure 330'.
[0175] Furthermore, the dust cup assembly 200' includes a hollow dust cup 210', a dust cup cover 220', and a dust cup holder 290'. The dust cup cover 220' and the dust cup holder 290' are arranged opposite each other. The air inlet 260' of the dust cup 210' is located on the side wall facing the air inlet structure 310' and is connected to the air inlet structure 310'. The air outlet 270' of the dust cup 210' is located above the dust cup 210', and a filter assembly 400' is provided at the air outlet 270'.
[0176] Furthermore, the main body assembly 100' also includes a first silencing assembly 600' and a second silencing assembly 700' disposed within the housing 110'. In the airflow path, the filter assembly 400' is located between the dust cup assembly 200' and the motor assembly 500', and the first silencing assembly 600' and the second silencing assembly 700' are both located between the motor assembly 500' and the air outlet structure 330'. Thus, the airflow enters from the airflow inlet 312' on the air inlet structure 310', passes sequentially through the dust cup assembly 200', the filter assembly 400', the motor assembly 500', the first silencing assembly 600', and the second silencing assembly 700', and exits from the airflow outlet 332' on the air outlet structure 330'.
[0177] In some other specific embodiments, the main body assembly 100' further includes a support frame 010' located within the housing 110', which supports the motor assembly 500' and the dust cup assembly 200'. Specifically, the support frame 010' includes a first cavity 011' for accommodating the dust cup assembly 200' and a second cavity 012' for accommodating the motor assembly 500'. Further, the first cavity 011' has a front opening on its cavity wall for inserting and removing the dust cup assembly 200', and correspondingly, the housing 110' also has a corresponding opening for inserting and removing the dust cup assembly 200'. The second cavity 012' has an upper opening on its cavity wall, through which the airflow leaving the dust cup assembly 200' and the filter assembly 400' enters the motor assembly 500' in the second cavity 012'. In some other specific embodiments, the airflow leaving the filter assembly 400' enters the second cavity 012' after passing through a deflector 020'. Specifically, the housing 110' is provided with a deflector 020' and a cover plate 030' forming a deflection channel from the first cavity 011' to the second cavity 012'. The cover plate 030' is provided with air inlets corresponding to the filter assembly 400' and the motor assembly 500' (see...). Figure 40 As shown), the motor assembly and dust cup assembly are arranged side by side to complete the airflow redirection.
[0178] Furthermore, the first cavity 011' has a first side opening 0111' that matches the air inlet 260' of the dust cup 210', an upper opening 0112' that matches the air outlet 270' of the dust cup 210', and a rear opening 0113' for matching the dust cup cover 220'. The second cavity 012' also has honeycomb-shaped through holes on its cavity wall to disperse airflow within the second cavity 012' while reducing noise. Preferably, the honeycomb-shaped through holes constitute the aforementioned first noise-reducing component 600'.
[0179] An air outlet channel 0122' is also provided outside the cavity wall of the second cavity 012'. One end of the air outlet channel 0122' is aligned with the second silencer assembly 700', and the other end is provided with a second side opening 0121' that matches the airflow outlet 332' on the air outlet structure 330'. The air outlet channel 0122' and the second side opening 0121' are separated from the second cavity 012' by the cavity wall. In this way, the airflow from the first silencer assembly 600' enters the air outlet channel 0122' after passing through the second silencer assembly 700', and then exits from the air outlet structure 330'. Preferably, the second silencer assembly 700' also has a honeycomb-shaped through-hole structure.
[0180] In some other specific embodiments, the second silencing component 700' has a first silencing part and a second silencing part, which are respectively arranged on the two airflow paths that must be passed from the first silencing component 600' to the air outlet channel 0122', so as to concentrate and effectively silencing the airflow. The arrangement of the first silencing component 600' and the second silencing component 700' greatly reduces the noise of the whole machine during operation, providing a better user experience.
[0181] The vertical arrangement of the motor assembly and dust cup assembly not only makes the overall layout reasonable, compact and aesthetically pleasing, but also reduces the overall noise by placing sound-absorbing components in appropriate positions, which better meets the needs of users, especially those using pet care.
[0182] Furthermore, such as Figure 42-49 As shown, this invention addresses the specific noise reduction requirements of pet care by equipping the entire device with a silencer head 040 for further noise reduction. The silencer head 040 includes a connector portion 043 and a silencer cover 041. One end of the connector portion 043 is tubular and used to connect to the entire device. The other end of the connector portion 043 has an opening 0431 facing the silencer cover 041. The silencer cover 041 has several silencer holes 042, which extend towards the connector portion 043 and are accommodated within the opening 0431. Optionally, the connector portion 043 and the silencer cover 041 are snap-fitted together; other common connection methods are also possible. Preferably, the silencer holes 042 are honeycomb-shaped, with the axes Q1 and Q2 of the several silencer holes 042 being parallel and having the same axial length. When airflow passes through the honeycomb-shaped silencer holes 042, the flow velocity increases, thereby achieving noise reduction.
[0183] In some other specific embodiments, the muffler cover 041 is designed in the shape of a cat's paw (e.g. Figure 45 (As shown) to make the shape more beautiful and cute, while evenly opening the sound-absorbing through holes 042 to meet the sound-absorbing requirements. Accordingly, the edge of the opening 0431 of the sound-absorbing cover 041 is set to fit the cat paw shape of the sound-absorbing cover 041.
[0184] Specifically, the connector 043 of the silencer head 040 is compatible with both the air inlet structures 310, 310' and the air outlet structures 330, 330'. When the accessories connected to the air inlets 312, 312' of the air inlet structures 310, 310' of the blow-drying machine are used for hair suction operations such as combing, trimming, and hair removal, the silencer head 040 is installed at the air outlets 332, 332' of the air outlet structures 330, 330' to reduce noise at the outlet. When the accessories connected to the air outlets 332, 332' are used for hair drying operations, the silencer head 040 is installed at the air inlets 312, 312' of the air inlet structures 310, 310' to reduce noise at the inlet.
[0185] Furthermore, depending on the different working states of the blower / vacuum combo machine, the silencer head 040 can be flexibly installed at the air inlet structure 310, 310' or the air outlet structure 330, 330'. This not only reduces noise during use, but also, when in the blower mode, the silencer head 040 installed at the airflow inlet 312, 312' can block foreign objects, preventing them from entering the dust cup assembly 200, 200' through the normally open airflow inlet 312, 312'. When in the vacuum mode, the silencer head 040 is installed at the airflow outlet 332, 332', and the flowing air can clean the small silencer holes 042, effectively preventing the honeycomb holes of the silencer head 040 from being blocked, thus achieving self-cleaning of the silencer head 040.
[0186] In some other specific embodiments, when the silencer head 040 is installed on the air inlet structure 310, 310', the axis P1P2 of the connector portion 043 coincides with the axis O1O2 of the airflow inlet 312, 312', facilitating their connection. Similarly, when the silencer head 040 is installed on the air outlet structure 330, 330', the axis P1P2 coincides with the axis (not shown) of the airflow outlet 332, 332'. Furthermore, the axes Q1Q2 of the several silencer through holes 042 on the silencer cover 041 are all parallel to the axis P1P2 to ensure smooth airflow into the channel.
[0187] Furthermore, the inner diameter area of the opening 0431 is larger than that of the airflow inlets 312, 312' or airflow outlets 332, 332', to provide sufficient silencing holes 042 for better silencing effect. However, to prevent excessive turbulence caused by the large area difference between the two, which would result in excessively rapid accumulation of airflow from the silencing holes 042 into the airflow inlets 312, 312' or airflow outlets 332, 332', the inner diameter area of the opening 0431 is set to be 2-20 times the inner diameter area of the airflow inlets 312, 312' or airflow outlets 332, 332'. Preferably, the inner diameter area of the opening 0431 is 5-15 times the inner diameter area of the airflow inlets 312, 312' or airflow outlets 332, 332'.
[0188] In some other specific embodiments, the opening 0431 is configured to be inclined (e.g. Figure 49As shown in the diagram, the edge of the opening 0431 forms a plane, which is at an angle to the axis P1P2 of the connector portion 043. Correspondingly, when the muffler cover 041 is installed on the connector portion 043, its outer surface is also inclined. This arrangement makes the muffler head 040 resemble a pet's tail for a more aesthetically pleasing appearance. Functionally, when the entire unit is used close to a corner, it is less likely to become clogged. Preferably, the angle between the plane formed by the edge of the opening 0431 and the axis P1P2 is 45°-85°. Preferably, the angle between the plane formed by the edge of the opening 0431 and the axis P1P2 is 60°-80°. When the muffler head 040 is installed on the entire unit, the axis P1P2 of the connector portion 043, the axis O1O2 of the airflow inlet 312, 312', and the axis of the airflow outlet 332, 332' are all horizontally aligned, and the plane formed by the edge of the opening 0431 is inclined downwards.
[0189] Preferably, a fragrance component is provided inside the sound-absorbing cover 041 for air freshening. Users can customize the fragrance according to their own or their pet's preferred scent, providing a more satisfying experience. Preferably, the fragrance component includes a fragrance pad that abuts against the sound-absorbing through-hole 042.
