The dust box 240 can be taken out from the chamber of the cleaning body 100 when the cover 210 is in an open state, wherein one of the first component and the second component is a pressing component 220 in the dust box cover assembly 200, and the other of the first component and the second component is a part of the cover 210. The pressing component 220 is used to operate the cover 210 to open; the discharge hole 230 is fluidly connected to the dust box 240 to discharge foreign matter into the dust box 240 under the action of the power component. Regarding fluid connectivity, the fluid may be water, and the water may flow into the dust box 240 through the drain hole 230. Whether the water flows directly from the drain hole 230 into the dust box 240, or first passes through the drain hole 230 and then flows into the dust box 240 through a pipe between the drain hole 230 and the dust box 240, etc., is not specifically limited here.
[0036] For example, when the first component is the pressing assembly 220 , the second component is a buckle structure in the cover plate 210 connected to the pressing assembly.
[0037] Specifically, the first component of the cleaning device is the pressing component 220 in the dust box cover assembly 200, the cover plate 210 in the dust box cover assembly 200 includes at least part of the second component, that is, the second component is partially or completely located on the cover plate 210, and the dust box cover assembly 200 is arranged on the cleaning robot body. The cover plate 210 is used to cover the opening of the dust box 240 of the cleaning body 100, the dust box 240 is arranged in the chamber of the cleaning body 100, the pressing component 220 is arranged on one side of the cover plate 210, the pressing component 220 is used to control the switch of the cover plate 210, the discharge hole 230 is arranged corresponding to the pressing component 220, and the discharge hole 230 can connect the pressing component 220 and the dust box 240, and is used to discharge foreign matter at the pressing component 220 to the dust box 240 under the action of force.
[0038] The present application can also be applied to the field of cleaning robots, such as the field of pool cleaning robots, etc., where the area corresponding to the cover plate 210 and the pressing assembly 220 of the cleaning robot is provided with a discharge hole 230, and foreign matter such as gravel accumulated in the gap between the cover plate 210 and the pressing assembly 220 is discharged by the thrust of fluid or gas, so as to prevent the pressing assembly 220 from being stuck by the foreign matter. Among them, the cleaning body 100 is the cleaning robot body.
[0039] In some embodiments, the side of the cover plate 210 away from the pressing assembly 220 is movably connected to the cleaning robot body. Under the action of the pressing assembly 220, the cover plate 210 can be opened to facilitate the removal of the dust box from the cleaning robot body. When the cover plate 210 is opened, the cover plate 210 can be flipped around the side of the cover plate 210 away from the pressing assembly 220.
[0040] Specifically, the structure of the connection between the cover plate 210 and the cleaning robot body can be referred to in Figure 2 A connecting piece, for example, a U-shaped connecting piece, is provided on the side of the cover plate 210 away from the pressing assembly 220. One end of the U-shaped connecting piece is fixed on the side of the cover plate 210 away from the pressing assembly 220, and the other end of the U-shaped connecting piece is movably connected to the cleaning robot body through bolts, so that the cover plate 210 can be flipped relative to the cleaning robot body.
[0041] It is understandable that the side of the cover 210 away from the pressing assembly 220 can also be connected to the cleaning robot body by a hinge or the like, and no specific limitation is made here.
[0042] Please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 The pressing assembly 220 includes a pressing portion 221, a pressing elastic member 222 and a locking portion 223. The first end of the pressing portion 221 is disposed on one side of the cover plate 210, one end of the pressing elastic member 222 is connected to the first end of the pressing portion 221, the other end of the pressing elastic member 222 is connected to the cover plate 210, the locking portion 223 is disposed on the cleaning body 100, the second end of the pressing portion 221 can abut against the locking portion 223 to establish a lock between the pressing portion 221 and the locking portion 223, when the pressing portion 221 is subjected to a pressing force, the pressing elastic member 222 is driven to be compressed, and then the lock between the pressing portion 221 and the locking portion 223 is released to open the cover plate 210; the row through hole 230 is disposed corresponding to the pressing portion 221 and / or the pressing elastic member 222.
[0043] Specifically, the locking portion 223 is fixed to the cleaning robot body. When the pressing portion 221 and the locking portion 223 are in a locked state, the locking portion 223 abuts against the pressing portion 221 , and the locking portion 223 is located above the pressing portion 221 .
[0044] The row through holes 230 are arranged corresponding to the pressing portion 221, and can be arranged on the movement trajectory of the pressing portion 221, for example, on the bottom of the space formed by the pressing portion 221 and the cover plate 210; the row through holes 230 are arranged corresponding to the pressing elastic member 222, and can be arranged on the side where the pressing elastic member 222 is connected to the cover plate 210; the row through holes 230 are arranged corresponding to the pressing portion 221 and the pressing elastic member 222, and can be arranged on the movement trajectory of the pressing portion 221 and on the side where the pressing elastic member 222 is connected to the cover plate 210 at the same time.
[0045] In some embodiments, in order to prevent the pressing elastic member 222 from bending during the compression process, thereby affecting the pressing experience of the operating object, a limiting groove 224 is provided at the first end of the pressing portion 221, and the limiting groove 224 is used to limit the compression direction of the pressing elastic member 222. In order to further prevent the pressing elastic member 222 from separating from the pressing portion 221 or the cover plate 210 during the compression and reset process, the pressing elastic member 222 can be snap-connected with the cover plate 210.
[0046] In some embodiments, in order to prevent the pressing portion 221 from shifting left and right during the pressing process, thereby affecting the pressing experience of the operating object, a positioning groove 225 may be provided at the first end of the pressing portion 221, and the positioning groove 225 is used to cooperate with the positioning column 211 on one side of the cover plate 210 for positioning. When the pressing portion 221 is in a normal state, only a small part of the positioning column 211 is located in the positioning groove 225; when the pressing portion 221 is in a pressing state, most or all of the positioning column 211 is located in the positioning groove 225. Therefore, when the operating object presses different positions of the pressing portion 221, the pressing portion 221 can be moved toward the cover plate 210 without shifting.
[0047] In addition, the pressing portion 221 may be connected to the cover plate 210 , for example, the pressing portion 221 and the cover plate 210 are connected by snap-fit connection, etc., which is not specifically limited here.
[0048] In this embodiment, a limiting groove 224 and a positioning groove 225 are provided on one side of the pressing portion 221 opposite to the cover plate 210 to enhance the pressing experience of the operating object.
[0049] In some embodiments, at least one through hole 230 is disposed between the cover plate 210 and the pressing assembly 220, and the through hole 230 is disposed corresponding to the pressing assembly 220. Figure 3 The row through hole 230 is disposed on a side of the cover plate 210 connected to the pressing elastic member 222. Alternatively, the row through hole 230 is disposed on a region of the cover plate 210 corresponding to the pressing assembly 220.
[0050] The through holes 230 are evenly distributed holes, and the power component may be a water pump, which is disposed inside the cleaning robot. When the cleaning robot is used to clean the pool, power can be generated by the water pump to drive the water flow around the water pump to move. At this time, based on the power generated by the water pump, at least one or more water flow channels passing through the inside of the cleaning robot are formed. Driven by the water flow in at least one of the water flow channels, foreign matter between the cover plate 210 and the pressing assembly 220 can be discharged into the dust box 240 through the through holes 230.
[0051] In addition, in addition to the cover plate 210, other structures such as a connecting plate may be provided in the interval between the pressing assembly 220 and the dust box 240. Therefore, the through hole 230 may not be provided on the cover plate 210, but may be provided on other structures between the pressing assembly 220 and the dust box 240.
[0052] In this embodiment, the upper part of the dust box 240 is open, and the cover plate 210 serves as the upper cover of the dust box 240. If the dust box 240 itself has an upper cover, an opening can also be provided at the upper part of the dust box 240 adjacent to the discharge hole 230, so that the pressing part 221 is fluidically connected with the inside of the dust box 240 through the discharge hole 230.
[0053] During use, the pressing portion 221 is pressed to make the pressing portion 221 retreat toward the cover plate 210, thereby driving the pressing elastic member 222 to be compressed, so that the pressing portion 221 and the locking portion 223 are released from the locked state. At this time, the cover plate 210 is in the unlocked state and the cover plate 210 can be opened; when closing the cover plate 210, the pressing portion 221 is also pressed first to make the pressing portion 221 retreat toward the cover plate 210, thereby driving the pressing elastic member 222 to be compressed, and the compressed state of the pressing elastic member 222 is maintained, and the cover plate 210 is flipped downward at the same time until the cover plate is in the closed state, and then the pressing portion 221 is released. Under the action of the restoring force of the pressing elastic member 222, the pressing portion 221 will move forward to abut against the locking portion 223 until the locking is completed.
[0054] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 7 The cleaning robot body is formed with a chamber 250, which is also located below the cover plate 210. The dust box 240 is disposed in the chamber 250 of the cleaning robot. The cover plate 120 is connected to the cleaning robot body and covers the opening of the dust box 240.
[0055] In some embodiments, the power component is a main water pump, the cleaning device includes a water inlet, a dust box 240, and a drain 251, and the main water pump is used to control the water flow to flow through the water inlet, the dust box 240 and the drain 251 in sequence.
[0056] Specifically, the chamber 250 is provided with a drain port 251 , and water can enter the dust box 240 through the drain hole 230 and be discharged from the drain port 251 to discharge foreign matter at the pressing assembly 220 to the dust box 240 .
[0057] Specifically, a plurality of discharge holes 230 are evenly arranged on one side of the cover plate 210 connected to the pressing elastic member 222, and the size diameters of the discharge holes 230 may be the same or partially the same, and the size diameters of the discharge holes 230 may be larger than the diameter of the foreign matter. One end of the discharge hole 230 is connected to the inside of the dust box 240, and the other end is connected to the pressing assembly 220, so that the foreign matter at the pressing assembly 220 can be discharged to the dust box 240 under the action of the water flow, and the dust box 240 filters and collects the foreign matter entering therein.
[0058] In addition, please refer to Figure 8 and Fig.10 The chamber 250 is provided with a first water inlet 252 and a drain port 251, and the dust box 240 is provided with a second water inlet 241. The second water inlet 241 of the dust box 240 is arranged corresponding to the first water inlet 252. Water can enter the dust box 240 through the first water inlet 252 and the second water inlet 241, and be discharged from the dust box 240 from the drain port 251 after being filtered by at least one filter part 242, wherein the filter part 242 is arranged at the drain port 251, and / or the filter part 242 is arranged on the dust box 240 and arranged corresponding to the drain port 251.
[0059] The first water inlet 252 and the drain port 251 are respectively disposed at the bottom and the side wall of the chamber 250. In addition, the first water inlet 252 and the drain port 251 may also be disposed at the side wall of the chamber 250, or the first water inlet 252 is disposed at the side wall of the chamber 250 and the drain port 251 is respectively disposed at the bottom of the chamber 250. Therefore, the arrangement positions of the first water inlet 252 and the drain port 251 relative to the chamber 250 are not specifically limited herein.
[0060] In some embodiments, at least a portion of the side wall of the dust box 240 is mesh-shaped to form a filter portion 242. The filter portion 242 may be a mesh structure woven from filter cotton, and may be disposed on the side wall of the dust box 240. It is understood that the material of the filter portion 242 may be biochemical cotton or other materials in addition to filter cotton, and no specific limitation is made here.
[0061] In this embodiment, in order to enhance the filtering effect of the dust box 240 , a filtering portion 242 is provided on the side wall of the dust box 240 .
[0062] In addition, in order to facilitate the removal of the dust box 240 from the cleaning robot, a handle 243 is provided at the opening of the dust box 240 .
[0063] Please refer to Fig. 9 and Fig.11A high platform 244 is provided on one side of the dust box 240 corresponding to the first water inlet 252, and the high platform 244 includes a protrusion 2441 extending inwardly and a baffle 2442. The protrusion 2441 has an opening as the second water inlet 241, and the baffle 2442 is provided corresponding to the second water inlet 241 and is movably connected to the protrusion 2441, and is used to open the second water inlet 241 under the action of water flow, and close the second water inlet 241 in the absence of water flow to prevent the material in the dust box 240 from leaving the dust box from the second water inlet 241.
[0064] In a specific application scenario, the cleaning device is a pool cleaning robot, which is used to filter some impurities in the pool, and the power component is the main water pump in the pool cleaning robot. During use, the pool cleaning robot is placed in the pool, and the pool cleaning robot starts to run the main water pump located at the drain port 251 of its chamber 250, so that the main water pump generates power and forms a clean water path with the first water inlet 252 of the chamber 250, the second water inlet 241 of the dust box 240, and the drain port 251. The clean water path allows the water in the pool to pass through the first water inlet 252 of the chamber 250 and the second water inlet 241 of the dust box 240 and flow into the dust box 240. At the same time, under the action of the huge water flow, the baffle 2442 will be lifted so that the water flow can smoothly enter the dust box 240. Before the water flows out of the dust box 240 at the drain port 251, it will pass through the filter 242 provided at the drain port 251 of the dust box 240. The filter 242 will filter out the impurities in the water, and the filtered water will flow out through the drain port. The impurities filtered by the filter 242 will slowly settle in the groove formed by the bottom of the dust box 240 and the protrusion 2441, and the protrusion 2441 can prevent the impurities that have been precipitated and accumulated from flowing back to the pool through the second water inlet 241.
[0065] In addition, due to the power generated by the main water pump, the water flow will also discharge the foreign matter accumulated between the pressing assembly 220 and the cover plate 210 into the dust box 240 through the discharge holes 230. Since the number of the discharge holes 230 is limited and the opening is very small, the existence of this sand discharge waterway will not have a great impact on the water pressure of the cleaning waterway. The function of the baffle 2442 is to prevent the foreign matter discharged into the dust box 240 through the discharge holes 230 from directly flowing back to the pool through the second water inlet 241.
[0066] The cover plate in this embodiment is arranged at the opening of the dust box of the cleaning robot, and the opening and closing of the cover plate is controlled by a pressing assembly arranged on one side of the cover plate. The discharge hole in the dust box cover plate assembly can connect the pressing assembly and the dust box, and discharge foreign matter at the pressing assembly into the dust box under the action of external force to prevent foreign matter from being stuck in the pressing assembly, causing the pressing assembly to jam, thereby improving the user experience of the operating object.
[0067] This embodiment achieves the following effects by adding drainage holes under the premise of using the pressing component and through the water flow of the main water pump in the cleaning robot: first, it prevents foreign objects such as dust and sand from getting stuck in the pressing component, effectively avoiding jamming and making the operating experience smoother; second, it reduces a series of wear caused by the jamming of the pressing component and greatly improves the service life of the pressing component; third, due to the increased life of the pressing component, the after-sales cost caused by maintenance is greatly reduced.
[0068] Please refer to Figure 1 and Fig.12 , the first component of the cleaning device can also be a cleaning component 300 in a cleaning robot, and the second component is at least a part of the component that forms the cleaning component mounting portion 310. The cleaning component 300 is connected to the cleaning body 100 through the cleaning component mounting portion 310, and the discharge hole 230 is arranged corresponding to the cleaning component 300, and is used to discharge foreign matter between the cleaning component 300 and the second component under the action of the power component. For example, the second component is a guide rail, and the cleaning component 300 is slidably connected to the guide rail to clean the objects to be cleaned at different positions. The guide rail can be located entirely on the cleaning component mounting portion 310, or partially on the cleaning component mounting portion 310, which is not specifically limited here.
[0069] In some embodiments, the cleaning component 300 may be a roller brush, and the second component may be a bearing. The bearing is a part of the cleaning component mounting portion 310, and the cleaning component mounting portion 310 is fixed to the cleaning body 100 so that the roller brush rolls relative to the bearing.
[0070] The power component is used to drive the roller brush to rotate. When the roller brush rotates, it will drive the water flow around the roller brush to move, thereby generating a force to discharge foreign matter between the roller brush and the bearing through the discharge hole 230. Alternatively, the power component can be used to drive the water flow around the roller brush to move, thereby generating a force to discharge foreign matter between the roller brush and the bearing through the discharge hole 230 and the garbage suction port of the cleaning robot into the cleaning body 100. It can be understood that the power component can be a motor, a water pump, etc., which is not specifically limited here.
[0071] In some embodiments, the cleaning assembly 300 can be connected to the cleaning assembly mounting portion 310 in an indirect manner. For example, the cleaning device includes the cleaning assembly 300, the second component is at least a part of the component forming the cleaning assembly mounting portion 310, the first component is a first opening and closing member, the first opening and closing member is used to remove the cleaning assembly 300 from the cleaning assembly mounting portion 310, and the row of through holes is arranged corresponding to the first opening and closing member.
[0072] Specifically, the cleaning component 300 can be a cleaning brush, the second component is a rotatable mechanical arm, and the rotatable mechanical arm is the cleaning component mounting part 310. The cleaning brush is connected to the rotatable mechanical arm through a snap structure, and the snap structure is the first opening and closing part.
[0073] Please continue reading Figure 1 The first component of the cleaning device can be a walking component 400 of the cleaning robot. The walking component 400 is connected to the cleaning body 100 through a walking component mounting part. The discharge hole 230 is arranged corresponding to the walking component 400, and is used to discharge foreign matter between the walking component and the second component under the action of the power component.
[0074] In some embodiments, the walking assembly 400 is connected to the walking assembly mounting portion in an indirect manner. For example, the cleaning device includes the walking assembly 400, the second component is at least a part of the component forming the walking assembly mounting portion, the first component is a second opening and closing member, the second opening and closing member is used to remove the walking assembly from the walking assembly mounting portion, and the row through hole is arranged corresponding to the second opening and closing member. Among them, the second opening and closing member can be a switch, and the walking assembly 400 can be removed from the walking assembly mounting portion by pressing the switch, and in order to avoid the switch from getting stuck, the row through hole 230 can be arranged at a relative position of the switch or between the switch and the walking assembly mounting portion.
[0075] In some embodiments, the drain hole 230 is provided on the area of the walking assembly mounting portion corresponding to the walking assembly. The walking assembly is arranged close to the cleaning assembly 300, and the surrounding water flow driven by the rotation of the cleaning assembly 300 will also generate a force to discharge the foreign matter between the walking assembly and the second component. Alternatively, the power component can be used to drive the water flow of the walking assembly to move, thereby generating a force to discharge the foreign matter between the walking assembly and the walking assembly mounting portion through the drain hole 230 through the garbage suction port of the cleaning robot into the cleaning body 100. It is understandable that the power component can be a motor, a water pump, etc., which is not specifically limited here.
[0076] The first component in the cleaning device of the present application is movable relative to the second component. Therefore, in order to avoid the movable component composed of the first component and the second component from getting stuck or stuck due to the entry of foreign matter during the cleaning process, which affects the service life of the structure and the user experience of the operating object, a drainage hole is provided in one of the first component and the second component, and the foreign matter in the movable component is discharged through the drainage hole.
[0077] Among them, combined with the above embodiments, it can be known that there are two ways to use the drainage holes to discharge foreign matter from the movable parts. One is to use the drainage holes to discharge foreign matter between the movable parts into the cleaning equipment for filtration; the other is to use the drainage holes to discharge foreign matter between the movable parts out of the cleaning equipment.
[0078] It is understandable that, in addition to the above structure, drain holes may also be provided in structures such as knobs of the cleaning robot.
[0079] The above description of various embodiments tends to emphasize the differences between the various embodiments. The same or similar aspects can be referenced to each other, and for the sake of brevity, they will not be repeated herein.
[0080] In the several embodiments provided in the present application, it should be understood that the disclosed device can be implemented in other ways. For example, the device implementation described above is only schematic, for example, the division of modules or units is only a logical function division, and there may be other division methods in actual implementation, such as units or components can be combined or integrated into another system, or some features can be ignored or not executed. Another point is that the mutual coupling or direct coupling or communication connection shown or discussed can be through some interfaces, and the indirect coupling or communication connection of devices or units can be electrical, mechanical or other forms.
