[0020] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0021] First embodiment: This invention discloses an air purifier with whole-house cruise function, which mainly includes a purifier body 1, a cruise base 2, an intermittent drive mechanism 3, and a protective mechanism 4.
[0022] The following section will elaborate on the composition, assembly relationship, and collaborative working method of each part.
[0023] The cruise base 2 is equipped with a battery to provide power to the entire device. The purifier body 1 is fixedly installed on the top of the cruise base 2. The purifier body 1 has a fan chamber 11, a purification chamber 12 and a drive chamber 13 arranged from top to bottom. Inside the purification chamber 12, an activated carbon filter 14, a photocatalytic cylinder 15 and multiple ultraviolet lamps 16 are arranged from the outside to the inside. The photocatalytic cylinder 15 extends downward and is connected to the intermittent drive mechanism 3 in the drive chamber 13. On the outside of the photocatalytic cylinder 15, multiple brushes 17 are provided that slide against its outer wall. In addition, a protective mechanism 4 is provided on the outside of the purifier body 1. The shell of the purifier body 1 has an air inlet 18 and an air outlet 19. The protective mechanism 4 is located around the air inlet 18 and the air outlet 19.
[0024] The overall working principle is as follows: The cruise base 2 provides a mobile carrier for the entire unit, driving the device to cruise throughout the room. When the air purifier is in operation, the fan in the fan chamber 11 starts to generate negative pressure, drawing outside air into the purification chamber 12 through the air inlet 18. The air passes through the outer activated carbon filter 14 for primary filtration, then through the photocatalytic cylinder 15. Under the irradiation of the ultraviolet lamp 16, a photochemical reaction occurs, decomposing harmful substances. Finally, the purified clean air is discharged from the air outlet 19. During this operation, the intermittent drive mechanism 3 drives the photocatalytic cylinder 15 to rotate intermittently around multiple ultraviolet lamps 16, which not only prolongs the contact reaction time between the air and the catalytic layer, but also achieves dynamic self-cleaning of the surface of the photocatalytic cylinder 15 due to the scraping action of the brush 17. When the device is turned off and in a non-working state, the protective mechanism 4 switches to the unfolded state, completely covering all air inlets 18 and outlets 19 to prevent dust from falling into the cavity.
[0025] The technical solution of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0026] Second embodiment: To clearly illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with specific embodiments. The second embodiment is a basic implementation of the internal components of the purification chamber 12, as detailed below: An activated carbon filter 14 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the purification chamber 12. A photocatalytic cylinder 15 is located inside the activated carbon filter 14 and is rotatably connected to the purification chamber 12. The top of the activated carbon filter 14 extends toward the center and is fixedly connected to a first support 21. The bottom of the first support 21 is vertically fixedly connected to an installation tube 22. Multiple ultraviolet lamps 16 are fixedly installed on the outer wall of the installation tube 22 in a circumferentially spaced manner. In addition, multiple brushes 17 are fixedly installed on the inner wall of the activated carbon filter 14, with their bristle tips abutting against the outer wall of the photocatalytic cylinder 15. Furthermore, a collection box 5 is provided at the bottom of the purification chamber 12, corresponding to the position directly below the brushes 17.
[0027] Its working principle is as follows: When the photocatalytic cylinder 15 rotates under the power drive, its outer wall will slide and rub against the brush 17 fixed inside the activated carbon filter 14. The brush 17 brushes off the dust and impurities attached to the outside of the photocatalytic cylinder 15. The brushed-off dust falls directly under the action of gravity and collects in the collection box 5 at the bottom. The collection box 5 completes the centralized treatment of impurities, avoiding the reduction of catalytic efficiency caused by dust blockage. At the same time, the fixed ultraviolet lamp tube 16 provides continuous and stable light radiation to the photocatalytic cylinder 15 from the inside, ensuring the high efficiency of the photocatalytic reaction.
[0028] Third embodiment: Based on the above-described basic implementation, the present invention also provides a third embodiment, which corresponds to the specific implementation of the intermittent drive mechanism 3, as follows: The intermittent drive mechanism 3 includes a Geneva wheel 31, a dial 32, and a motor 33. The Geneva wheel 31 is rotatably disposed in the center of the drive cavity 13. Several sets of combinations of dial grooves 311 and arcs 312 are formed on the edge of the Geneva wheel 31. The dial 32 is fitted onto the inner surface of one of the arcs 312. A half-notch is provided on the edge of the dial 32. A dial block 321 is fixedly disposed at the half-notch. A dial rod 322 is fixedly connected to the dial block 321. One end of the dial rod 322 is connected to the center of the dial 32. The motor 33 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface inside the drive cavity 13. The side of the dial 32 away from the dial rod 322 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 33. In addition, a rotating shaft 34 is vertically rotatably connected inside the purification cavity 12. The bottom end of the rotating shaft 34 is fixedly connected to the center of the Geneva wheel 31. The top end of the rotating shaft 34 extends upward into the purification cavity 12 and is fixedly connected to a second bracket 35. The second bracket 35 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the photocatalytic cylinder 15.
[0029] Its working principle is as follows: The motor 33 is started, and the motor 33 drives the dial 32 to rotate continuously. When the dial 32 rotates, the dial block 321 enters the groove 311 of the groove wheel 31. The dial block 321 pushes the side wall of the groove 311, forcing the groove wheel 31 to rotate at a certain angle. When the dial block 321 disengages from the groove 311 as the dial 32 rotates, the cylindrical surface of the dial 32 just fits into the arc 312 of the outer edge of the groove wheel 31, forming a locking fit, so that the groove wheel 31 remains stationary during this period. As the dial 32 continues to rotate, this process is repeated, thereby converting the continuous rotation of the motor 33 into the intermittent rotation of the groove wheel 31. When the groove wheel 31 rotates, it drives the central shaft 34 and the second support 35 to rotate, thereby driving the photocatalytic cylinder 15 to achieve a smooth intermittent rotational motion.
[0030] Fourth embodiment: Based on the above-described basic implementation, the present invention also provides a fourth embodiment, which corresponds to the specific implementation of the protective mechanism 4, as follows: The protective mechanism 4 is located outside the purifier body 1 and includes a fixed bracket 41, a rotating bracket 42, and a folding cover 43 located between them. Both the fixed bracket 41 and the rotating bracket 42 conform to the outer shape of the purifier body 1. The purifier body 1 has a slide rail 181 at the location of the air inlet 18. The bottom of the fixed bracket 41 is fixedly connected to the inside of the slide rail 181, and the bottom of the rotating bracket 42 is rotatably connected to and slidably embedded in the slide rail 181. The tops of the fixed bracket 41 and the rotating bracket 42 (i.e., the end away from the slide rail 181) are rotatably connected through a connecting block 44. A turntable 45 is rotatably connected to the top of the connecting block 44. The turntable 45 is connected to the rotating bracket 42 to drive it to unfold or retract.
[0031] Its working principle is as follows: The protective mechanism 4 has an unfolded state and a folded state. When the air purifier is off and idle, the turntable 45 is rotated by hand. The turntable 45 drives the rotating bracket 42 to rotate around the connecting block 44. The bottom of the rotating bracket 42 slides along the slide rail 181. When the protective mechanism 4 is in the unfolded state, the rotating bracket 42 and the fixed bracket 41 are engaged. At this time, the folded cover 43 is fully opened and covers all the air inlets 18 and outlets 19 of the purifier body 1, forming a sealed protection. When the air purifier needs to be started, the turntable 45 is rotated in the opposite direction by hand. The rotating bracket 42 retracts. At this time, the protective mechanism 4 is in the folded state. The rotating bracket 42 and the fixed bracket 41 are magnetically engaged. The folded cover 43 retracts, completely opening the air inlets 18 and outlets 19, ensuring smooth airflow during purification.
[0032] The present invention and its embodiments have been described above. This description is not restrictive, and the accompanying drawings are only one embodiment of the present invention; the actual structure is not limited thereto. In conclusion, if those skilled in the art are inspired by this description and design similar structures and embodiments without departing from the spirit of the invention, such designs should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
