DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0035] The following will be combined with the attached Figure 1 To Attachment Fig.10The technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model are clearly and completely described. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0036] It should be noted that if there are directions involved in the embodiments of the present invention, they shall be based on the directions shown in the drawings, such as front and rear. Figure 1 The specific Figure 1 The left side is left, Figure 1 The right side of is right; at the same time Figure 1 As shown in the figure, the left-right direction is roughly the horizontal direction, and the up-down direction shown in the figure is the vertical direction. If a certain posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.
[0037] In daily life, people are busy with work and have no time to do housework, such as sweeping the floor, so sweeping machines are produced to meet market demand. Since sweeping machines are household electronic devices, they need to be charged frequently to maintain their normal use, which is inconvenient, so a sweeping machine that can charge itself has been produced. However, during the charging process of sweeping machines that can charge themselves on a charging stand, the position of the sweeping machine and the charging stand is easily deviated when they are docked for charging, and the charging interface cannot be aligned, so it cannot be charged normally.
[0038] In this regard, the inventors provide a technical solution to solve the above technical problems, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a sweeping machine comprises a precise positioning portion 122 provided at the sweeping machine body 1 and a first guide member 12 for auxiliary positioning at the precise positioning portion 122, wherein the first guide member 12 comprises a guide body 121, and the guide body 121 has a guide space 1211 and an effective guide inlet 1212 formed at the opening of the guide space 1211;
[0039] The precise positioning portion 122 is located at the bottom of the guide space 1211, and the orthographic projection of the effective guide access port 1212 along the positioning guidance direction can cover the precise positioning portion 122;
[0040] The guide body 121 is configured to guide the to-be-positioned structure 21 entering through the effective guide inlet 1212 to the precise positioning portion 122 .
[0041] When using this technical solution, Figures 1 to 4As shown, the guide body 121 can guide the structure to be positioned 21 to the precise positioning portion 122. Since the guide body 121 is provided on the sweeping machine body 1, and the structure to be positioned 21 is provided on the charging stand 2, the sweeping machine body 1 and the charging stand 2 are aligned and charged by aligning the structure to be positioned 21 with the precise positioning portion 122 on the sweeping machine body 1.
[0042] Specifically, Figure 2 Embodiment 1 of the first guide member 12 shown, the first guide member 12 includes the guide body 121 and the precise positioning portion 122, the guide body 121 is sequentially arranged with an effective guide access port 1212, the effective guide access port 1212 is connected to a guide surface 1213, the upper end of the guide surface 1213 is connected to the effective guide access port 1212 and faces the effective guide access port 1212, the lower end of the guide surface 1213 extends and terminates at the precise positioning portion 122.
[0043] like Figure 4 As shown, the guide surface intersects with the axis of the precise positioning portion at an angle and is arranged around the axis at 360°. Therefore, the guide surface 1212 is arranged in the guide space 1211 in an inclined manner, one end of the guide surface 1213 is connected to the effective guide access port 1212 in an upwardly extending manner, and the other end of the guide surface 1213 extends toward the precise positioning portion 122 and terminates at the positioning portion 122.
[0044] When the structure to be positioned 21 enters from the effective guide inlet 1212 , it can move along the guide surface 1213 to the precise positioning portion 122 , so as to achieve precise charging docking between the sweeper body 1 and the charging seat 2 .
[0045] like Figure 6 In the second embodiment shown, the guide surface 1213 of the first guide member 12 can be arranged in a manner perpendicular to the precise positioning portion 122. It can be understood that in this embodiment, when the carried positioning structure 21 enters from the effective guide access port 1212, the structure to be positioned 21 touches the guide surface 1213 and moves along the guide surface 1213 to the precise positioning portion 122, which can also achieve alignment charging of the sweeping machine body 1 and the charging base 2.
[0046] In summary, if Figures 4 to 5 As shown, the effective guide inlet 1212 and the guide surface 1213 together form a guide space 1211, and the longitudinal section of the guide space 1211 is an inverted trapezoid or a rectangle.
[0047] This design method is beneficial for the guide space 1211 which is an inverted trapezoid or rectangle and can guide the structure to be positioned 21 to the precise positioning portion 122 after the structure to be positioned 21 enters from the effective guide access port 1212, and when the structure to be positioned 21 is guided to the precise positioning portion 122, the side wall of the guide space 1211 can also form a pulling force on the structure to be positioned 21, so that the structure to be positioned 21 can be fixed in the guide space 1211, preventing the structure to be positioned from moving again, thereby affecting the effective alignment of the sweeper body 1 and the charging seat 2 mentioned above.
[0048] Furthermore, the cross-sectional area of the guiding body 121 is greater than or equal to the cross-sectional area of the precise positioning portion 122 .
[0049] It should be understood that this design makes the diameter of the effective guide access port 1212 of the guide body 121 larger than the precise positioning portion 122. As is well known, the larger the center of the target, the easier it is to aim at. Therefore, the effective guide access port 1212 is equivalent to enlarging the precise positioning portion 122 so that the sweeper body 1 and the charging base 2 can be more easily aligned to achieve precise charging.
[0050] This design method facilitates the structure to be positioned 21 to be quickly positioned at the effective guide access port 1212 , and enters from the effective guide access port 1212 to move to the precise positioning portion 122 .
[0051] It should be noted that in Figures 1 to 6 In the illustrated embodiment, the effective guiding access port 1212 is located above the precise positioning portion 122, and the positive projection area of the effective guiding access port 1212 covers the precise positioning portion 122. This design method enables the effective guiding access port 1212 to guide the structure to be positioned 21 entering from its access port in a direction aligned with the precise positioning portion 122, so as to guide the structure to be positioned 21 into the precise positioning portion 122.
[0052] It should be noted that the shape of the orthographic projection of the effective guide access port 1212 can be any shape such as a circle, a rectangle, or an ellipse, as long as the effective guide access port 1212 is located above the precise positioning portion 122 and the orthographic projection of the effective guide access port 1212 can cover the precise positioning portion 122. It should be understood that the orthographic projection of the guide body 121 can cover the precise positioning portion 122.
[0053] In order to cooperate with the first guide member 12, the charging seat 2 provided in this embodiment includes a structure to be positioned 21. After the structure to be positioned 21 enters the effective guide inlet 1212 of the sweeping machine 1 and is guided by the guide body 121 of the sweeping machine 1 to the precise positioning part 122 of the sweeping machine 1, the charging piece on the sweeping machine body 1 and the charging piece on the charging seat 2 can be aligned to achieve electrical connection.
[0054] like Figures 7 and 8 As shown, the structure to be positioned 21 includes a guide column 211; the top of the guide column 211 is spherical, conical or linear.
[0055] It should be understood that the spherical or conical top of the guide column 211 can help the guide column 211 to contact the guide surface 1213 of the guide body 121. The spherical or conical top design is helpful to reduce the contact friction between the guide column 211 and the guide surface 1213, thereby allowing the guide column 211 to better enter the precise positioning portion 122 along the guide surface 1213.
[0056] Of course, in addition to this, the top surface of the guide column 211 may also be as follows: Fig. 9 As shown in the rectangle, the guide surface 1213 can also guide the guide column 211 to the precise positioning portion 122 .
[0057] In another embodiment, the precise positioning portion 122 can be a plane or a groove structure. When the precise positioning portion 122 is a groove structure, when the guide column 211 moves to the precise positioning portion 122, the guide column 211 can be fixed in the precise positioning portion 122 and constrained therein to assist the charging plates of the sweeping machine body 1 and the charging seat 2 to be fixed to each other to prevent disconnection during charging and affect charging.
[0058] Furthermore, in Fig.10 In another embodiment shown in the above Figures 7 to 9 On the basis of the illustrated embodiment, the structure to be positioned 21 may further include a connecting portion 212 , one end of the connecting portion 212 being connected to the guide column 211 , and the other end of the connecting portion 212 being connected to the bottom plate of the structure to be positioned 21 .
[0059] like Fig.10As shown, the connection part 212 is a three-dimensional cone, and the three-dimensional cone-shaped connection part 212 can be adapted to the guide space 1211 in the first embodiment. When the guide column 211 contacts the precise positioning part 122 and is fixed in the groove of the precise positioning part 122 described above, the connection part 212 connected to the guide column 211 fills the entire guide space 1211, and the surface of the connection part 212 abuts against the surface of the guide surface 1213, thereby constraining the connection part 212 in the guide space 1211 to further fix the structure to be positioned 21 and the first guide member 12. It should be understood that this design method can better prevent the charging plates of the sweeping machine body 1 and the charging seat 2 from being electrically connected to each other, and can also better prevent the technical problem that the sweeping machine body 1 and the charging seat 2 are disconnected during the charging process, affecting normal charging.
[0060] like Figure 1 to Figure 2 As shown, the present technical solution also provides a sweeping machine system, comprising the sweeping machine body 1 described above and the charging base 2 described above, the guide body 121 in the first guide member 12 can guide the structure to be positioned 21 to the precise positioning portion 122 after entering the effective guide access port 1212, that is, when the guide column 211 of the charging base 2 moves along the guide surface 1213 of the sweeping machine body 1 to the precise positioning portion 122, the charging base 2 can accurately charge the sweeping machine body 1.
[0061] Furthermore, a charging female socket 13 is provided adjacent to the first guide member 12, and a charging male socket 22 is provided to match the charging female socket 13;
[0062] The charging male socket 22 is disposed next to the structure to be positioned 21 and is opposite to the charging female socket 13 .
[0063] When the sweeper body 1 moves close to the charging seat 2, the structure to be positioned 21 can be aligned with the precise positioning part 122 under the guidance of the guide body 121, and then the adjacent charging female seat 13 and the charging male seat 22 can be effectively electrically connected. In addition, the charging female seat 13 and the charging male seat 22 can also be respectively arranged at one end away from the first guide member 12 and the structure to be positioned 21. As long as the structure to be positioned 21 is docked with the precise positioning part 122, the electrical connection between the charging female seat 13 and the charging male seat 22 can be achieved.
[0064] In another embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown, the first guide member 12 is disposed on the sweeping machine body 1 and is detachably connected to the sweeping machine body 1 via a snap member 14; Figure 2As shown, the structure to be positioned 21 is provided on the charging seat 2 and is detachably connected to the charging seat 2 via a detachable connection portion 23, so that the first guide member 12 and the structure to be positioned 21 can be conveniently arranged at a desired position according to specific needs. For example, in addition to being respectively arranged below the sweeping machine body 1 and the charging seat 2, they can also be respectively arranged in the middle of the sweeping machine body 1 and the charging seat 2 or above near the top, as long as the processing and production of the first guide member 12 and the structure to be positioned 21 and accurate positioning are facilitated.
[0065] In another embodiment, some grabbing structures or magnetic structures may be provided inside the guide space 1211 so that the structure to be positioned 21 entering the effective guide access port 1212 can be guided to the precise positioning portion 122 .
[0066] In another embodiment, based on the above-mentioned embodiment 1, some magnetic structures or infrared mechanisms can be respectively provided on the sweeping machine body 1 and the charging base 2 to assist the structure to be positioned 21 to be quickly positioned to the effective guide access port 1212 so as to be guided to the precise positioning part 122.
[0067] To sum up, the present technical solution provides a precise docking charging solution, including a first guide member 12 and a structure to be positioned 21. The positioning structure 21 enters the precise positioning portion 122 under the guidance of the guide body 121 of the first guide member 12, so that the sweeping machine body 1 and the charging female socket 13 and the charging male socket 22 on the charging seat 2 can be precisely docked and charged.
[0068] In addition, when the dust collection area on some sweeping machine bodies 1 is located on the side of the sweeping machine, the sweeping machine body 1 has the risk of displacement due to the deviation of its own positioning system, which leads to the risk of stopping charging. Therefore, after using this technical solution, after the first guide member 12 is positioned at the structure to be positioned 21 and accurately docked with the structure to be positioned 21, the sweeping machine body 1 and the charging base 2 can be connected and fixed, so that when the sweeping machine body 1 is collecting dust, the charging interface will not be disconnected and charging will not stop.
[0069] In summary, the first guide member 12 and the belt positioning structure 21 of the present technical solution not only have the positioning and guiding functions, but also have the function of fixing the connection between the two objects.
[0070] According to the disclosure and teaching of the above description, the technical personnel in the field to which the utility model belongs can also change and modify the above implementation. Therefore, the utility model is not limited to the specific implementation methods disclosed and described above, and some modifications and changes to the utility model should also fall within the scope of protection of the claims of the utility model. In addition, although some specific terms are used in this specification, these terms are only for the convenience of description and do not constitute any limitation to the utility model.
