[0027] In the following description, many specific details are explained in combination with the embodiments to facilitate a full understanding of the present invention, but it should be understood that the following embodiments and detailed descriptions are only for illustrative purposes and do not limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0028] The brush winding and sending and receiving mechanism 10 of the utility model embodiment is as follows Figure 1As shown, it can be installed on a conveying mechanism 20 for conveying brushes to convey the brushes to the conveying mechanism 20 or to cooperate with the conveying mechanism 20 to retract the brushes; illustratively, the conveying mechanism 20 can refer to the conveying methods in the prior art such as the clamping wheel type, the conveyor belt type, etc., which is not limited in this embodiment and will not be expanded.

[0029] like Figure 2-7 As shown, the brush winding and receiving mechanism 10 includes a base 11, a rotating member 12, a winding drum 13, an outer cover 14 and a movable coupling member 15; wherein, a driving assembly 16 is provided on the base 11, and the rotating member 12 is arranged on the base 11 and can rotate under the drive of the driving assembly 16; the winding drum 13 is installed on the rotating member 12 through a rotating connecting member 17 and can rotate relative to the rotating member 12, and the rotating connecting member 17 is, for example, a bearing or other low-friction component, and the winding drum 13 is, for example, cylindrical, and a winding portion 131 is provided on its outer periphery, and the brush is received and sent on the winding portion 131 of the winding drum 13 and is received and sent as the winding drum 13 rotates forward and reversely; preferably, the winding portion 131 is preferably in a groove shape to facilitate the storage of the brush.

[0030] The outer cover 14 is removably disposed on the base 11 and covers the outer side of the winding drum 13, so as to protect the brush wound on the winding drum 13; wherein the outer cover 14 and the base 11 are preferably connected by a snap-fitting manner.

[0031] The engaging member 15 is disposed on the winding drum 13 and is used to engage with the connecting portion 121 on the rotating member 12 so as to drive the winding drum 13 to rotate through the rotating member 12. The engaging member 15 has a first position separated from the rotating member 12 and a second position engaged with the rotating member 12. When the engaging member 15 is in the second position, the winding drum 13 and the rotating member 12 can be connected together and rotate synchronously. In the embodiment, the engaging member 15 is rotatably disposed on the winding drum 13 and can be moved to engage with the connecting portion 121 under the drive of the position switching member 18; in other embodiments, the engaging member 15 can also be slidably disposed on the winding drum 13 and driven, for example, by a telescopic assembly to switch between the first position and the second position.

[0032] Specifically, the connecting portion 121 is a connecting tooth portion arranged along the circumference of the rotating member 12, and the connecting tooth portion has a plurality of connecting teeth. The engaging member 15 can move to abut against the connecting teeth in the connecting tooth portion. Figure 5 The engagement member 15 is arranged to be inclined relative to the radial direction of the rotating member 12 to form a rocker structure. When the engagement member 15 is engaged with the connecting tooth portion under the drive of the position switching member 18, the rotating member 12 rotating in the positive direction (clockwise) can drive the engagement member 15 to move away through the connecting teeth thereon to form an avoidance, such as Figure 5As shown by the arrow L, the rotating member 12 that rotates in the reverse direction (counterclockwise) can continuously abut against the engaging member 15 through the connecting teeth thereon and drive the winding drum 13 to rotate through the engaging member 15.

[0033] Furthermore, the position switching member 18 is an elastic member, which is used to keep the engagement member 15 with a movement tendency to rotate to engage with the rotating member 12, that is, it always has a movement tendency to rotate from the first position to the second position; illustratively, the position switching member 18 is a spring. In the embodiment, the winding drum 13 is engaged or separated with the rotating member 12 by the engagement member 15. When separated, the engagement member 15 automatically disengages from the connecting tooth portion and rotates under the push of the connecting tooth portion, so that the engagement member 15 automatically switches to the first position, at which time the winding drum 13 can achieve unpowered rotation to adaptively release the brush; when engaged, the rotation of the rotating member 12 is used to drive the winding drum 13 to reel in the brush, and during the forward rotation of the winding drum 13, the return engagement member 15 can also be used to limit the reverse rotation of the winding drum 13, so that the winding drum can be suspended, which is conducive to the release of the brush.

[0034] like Figure 1 , Figure 6-7 As shown, the drive assembly 16 is an electric drive assembly, which includes a drive motor 161, a drive shaft 162 and a gear transmission module. The drive motor 161 is arranged on the base 11, and the drive shaft 162 is connected to the output end of the drive motor 161 and is connected to the rotating member 12 through the gear transmission module.

[0035] Furthermore, the gear transmission module is preferably a gear ring structure, which includes a gear plate 163 and a gear ring 164 that mesh with each other, wherein the drive shaft 162 is connected to the gear plate 163, and the rotating member 12 is connected to the gear ring 164 through the connecting plate 165; when working, the drive motor 161 drives the drive shaft 162 to drive the gear plate 163 to rotate, and then drives the connecting plate 165 and the rotating member 12 to rotate through the gear ring 164, wherein the rotating member 12 is coaxial with the drive shaft 162. In the embodiment, the diameter of the gear plate 163 is preferably close to the diameter of the winding disk 13 or the difference between the two is small. The main purpose of such a setting is to use the gear plate 163 to ensure the coaxiality of the rotational movement of the winding disk 13, which is beneficial to the transportation of the brush.

[0036] The winding drum 13 in the embodiment has an inner cavity with a lower opening, and the rotating member 12 and the engaging member 15 are both arranged in the inner cavity of the winding drum 13; wherein the inner cavity of the winding drum 13 is also provided with a baffle 132 for blocking the lower opening, and the lower end of the rotating member 12 extends out of the baffle 132 and is rotatably connected with the baffle 132. Figure 6-7A sealing ring 133 is provided at the connection between the baffle 132 and the rotating member 12. The sealing ring 133 is used to prevent cleaning water from entering the upper part of the baffle 132 during use, thereby achieving waterproofing of the components in the installation space.

[0037] Furthermore, the base 11 is preferably bowl-shaped, and the winding reel 13 is at least partially located inside the base 11; the bottom plate 111 of the base 11 is preferably also provided with a perforation, and the cleaning water above the base 11 can be discharged to the outside of the base 11 through the perforation.
