For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it can be the communication inside two elements. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0030] In addition, the technical features involved in different embodiments of the present utility model described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other. The embodiments of the present utility model are described below in conjunction with Figures 1 to 6 ,

[0031] The present utility model provides a mop 1, which generally includes a mop board 10 and a wiping object 70 disposed on the mop board 10 and used for cleaning the surface to be cleaned. The types of the wiping object 70 can be various, such as a cotton swab material, a scrubbing cloth, etc.

[0032] Furthermore, the mop board 10 includes a top surface 12 and a bottom surface 14 that are oppositely disposed. The bottom surface 14 is used for mounting the wiping object 70, and the top surface 12 is connected to the bottom end of the mop rod 60.

[0033] Specifically, the mop board 10 can be rotatably connected to the top surface 12, and the mop board 10 can be rotated relative to the mop rod 60 to a cleaning state in which the top surface 12 is parallel to the mop rod 60 and the bottom surface 14 faces away from the mop rod 60 ( Figure 2 as shown), so as to facilitate cleaning the wiping object 70 by using the water squeezing rack 62 on the mop rod 60 or the water squeezing rack on the cleaning bucket.

[0034] Furthermore, the mop 1 can further include a movable part. The movable part is disposed at the end of the top surface 12 of the mop board 10, and a plurality of different cleaning members 220 are disposed on the movable part. The movable part is used to drive any one of the plurality of cleaning members 220 to move to a position facing the outside of the mop board 10, so that the cleaning member 220 that moves to the outside of the mop board 10 can clean the surface to be cleaned when the mop board 10 rotates to a position where the distance between the movable part and the top end of the mop rod 60 is the farthest.

[0035] In this embodiment, the movable part is provided with a plurality of different cleaning members 220, and the plurality of cleaning members 220 can be provided with different properties such as strength, hardness, material, and form, so as to adapt to different stubbornness of garbage. For example, the plurality of cleaning members 220 can be provided with any one of bristles, ridges, and scrapers. For another example, the plurality of cleaning members 220 can be provided with bristles of different hardness.

[0036] In this embodiment, the movable portion is arranged at the end of the top surface 12 of the mop board 10. When the mop board 10 is rotated to the position where the movable portion is farthest from the top end of the mop rod 60, that is, the opposite side of the mop board 10 where the movable portion is arranged is in contact with the mop rod 60, that is, the mop board 10 is rotated to a cleaning state where the top surface 12 is parallel to the mop rod 60 and the bottom surface 14 is away from the mop rod 60 ( Figure 2 In this state, the mop board 10 is blocked by the mop rod 60 and cannot continue to rotate in this direction. When the movable part is used to scrape dirt, when the ground applies upward pressure to the mop board 10, the mop board 10 will not rotate due to the blockage of the mop rod 60, so that the movable part can be used to scrape dirt on the ground.

[0037] Since the movable part can drive any one of the cleaning parts 220 to move to a position facing the outside of the mop plate 10, the user can drive the movable part to select a suitable cleaning part 220 according to the stubbornness of the garbage, so as to scrape the dirt quickly and effectively. For example, when encountering slightly stubborn garbage, the cleaning part 220 can be switched to bristles, and when encountering very stubborn garbage, the cleaning part 220 can be switched to ridges or scrapers.

[0038] The movable part can be set in various ways. For example, in some embodiments, the movable part can be set to drive any one of the multiple cleaning parts 220 to move to a position facing the outside of the mop board 10 by translation. Specifically, the movable part can include a driving part that translates along the top surface 12, and each driving part can be provided with a cleaning part 220. The user pushes the driving part outward to drive the appropriate cleaning part 220 to move to a position facing the outside of the mop board 10.

[0039] Furthermore, in the above embodiment, when there are two cleaning members 220, the driving parts corresponding to the two cleaning members 220 can also be connected through an intermediate gear and two racks meshing on both sides of the intermediate gear (the two racks are respectively arranged on the two driving parts), so that by rotating the intermediate gear, one driving part can move forward and the other driving part can move backward, thereby realizing the switching of the cleaning members 220 by translation.

[0040] In some other embodiments, the movable part drives any one of the plurality of cleaning members 220 to move to a position facing the outside of the mop plate 10 by rotating. In this embodiment, the rotation axis line 230 of the movable part can be either its axis (i.e., making the movable part a rotating body), or another rotation axis line 230 that deviates from its axis.

[0041] Furthermore, the movable part may further include a scraping roller 20. The scraping roller 20 is rotatably connected to the top surface 12 around its circumferential direction, and the plurality of cleaning members 220 are arranged along the circumferential direction of the scraping roller 20. When the scraping roller 20 is driven to rotate, any one of the plurality of cleaning members 220 is driven to a position facing the outside of the mop plate 10.

[0042] A plurality of working areas are distributed along the circumferential direction of the circumferential surface of the scraping roller 20, and the plurality of cleaning members 220 can be respectively arranged in the plurality of working areas. When the scraping roller 20 rotates around its circumferential direction, any one of the cleaning members 220 can be driven to a position facing the outside of the mop plate 10, that is, rotated to the working position.

[0043] In some specific embodiments, two opposite rotating brackets 16 may further be provided on the top surface 12 of the mop plate 10. The scraping roller 20 is arranged between the two rotating brackets 16, and both ends of the scraping roller 20 are rotatably arranged on the mop plate 10 through the cooperation of the rotating shaft 230 and the rotating hole 161.

[0044] In some embodiments, the mop 1 may further include a locking mechanism. The locking mechanism is arranged on the mop plate 10 to restrict the degree of freedom of the movable part moving relative to the mop plate 10.

[0045] Since it is necessary to keep the cleaning member 220 stationary relative to the mop plate 10 during scraping, and the cleaning member 220 is arranged on the movable part, and the movable part can move, it is necessary to use the locking mechanism to lock the movable part on the mop plate 10 and restrict the degree of freedom of movement of the movable part, so as to facilitate scraping garbage with the cleaning member 220.

[0046] Furthermore, the form of the locking mechanism can be various. For example, the movable part is locked on the mop plate 10 through a shaft-hole matching mechanism.

[0047] Specifically, in the embodiment provided with the scraping roller 20, the locking mechanism may include a locking portion 30. The locking portion 30 can slide along the axial direction of the scraping roller 20, and the locking portion 30 is provided with a locking protrusion 310. The mop plate 10 has at least one locking hole 160. The locking mechanism is configured to drive the locking portion 30 to slide between a locking position and an unlocking position.

[0048] When the locking portion 30 is in the locked state, the locking protrusion 310 extends into the locking hole 160 to restrict the degree of freedom of rotation of the scraping roller 20. When in the unlocked state, the locking protrusion 310 disengages from the locking hole 160 to release the restriction on the scraping roller 20.

[0049] When the locking portion 30 is driven to move towards the unlocking position, the locking protrusion 310 gradually disengages from the locking hole 160. At this time, since the axial position of the scraping roller 20 remains unchanged, this not only unlocks the scraping roller 20 but also ensures that the relative axial position between the scraping roller 20 and the rotating bracket 16 remains unchanged, and the rotating shaft 230 and the rotating hole 161 will not disengage, and it can rotate smoothly after being unlocked to realize the switching of the cleaning member 220.

[0050] When the locking portion 30 is driven to move towards the locking position, the locking protrusion 310 gradually approaches the locking hole 160 and finally inserts into the locking hole 160 at the locking position to lock the scraping roller 20 to the rotating bracket 16.

[0051] Furthermore, in order to prevent circumferential relative movement between the locking portion 30 and the scraping roller 20, a limiting structure can also be provided between the locking portion 30 and the scraping roller 20 to restrict the movement trajectory of the locking portion 30 so that it can only move along the axis of the scraping roller 20 to avoid locking failure.

[0052] In some specific embodiments, the locking protrusion 310 on the locking portion 30 can be one or more, and the locking protrusion 310 is provided on one side of the axis of the rotating shaft 230 of the locking portion 30, that is, at an eccentric position. Correspondingly, the locking hole 160 can be provided on the rotating bracket 16.

[0053] Furthermore, the locking protrusion 310 should also be designed according to the number and position of the cleaning members 220 to ensure that each cleaning member 220 can be locked in the working position outside the mop plate 10 for work.

[0054] For example, when two cleaning members 220 are provided on the scraping roller 20, at least one locking protrusion 310 should be provided at the corresponding axial side end of each cleaning member 220. When one of the cleaning members 220 rotates to the working position, the locking protrusion 310 cooperates with the locking hole 160 to lock the scraping roller 20.

[0055] In some specific embodiments, the scraping roller 20 has a mounting hole 210 that is open towards one axial side. The locking portion 30 is slidably disposed in the mounting hole 210. The locking protrusion 310 is disposed at the end of the locking portion 30.

[0056] In this embodiment, the mounting hole 210 should avoid the rotation axis 230 of the scraping roller 20, so as to ensure that the mounting hole 210 can be opened without affecting the setting of the rotation axis 230. Specifically, the mounting hole 210 can be arranged around the rotation axis 230. The locking portion 30 has a hollow structure 320 (such as a sleeve shape) so as to be able to extend into the mounting hole 210 and avoid the rotation axis 230.

[0057] Furthermore, the above-mentioned limiting mechanism can be arranged between the mounting hole 210 and the locking portion 30 to restrict the movement track of the locking portion 30. For example, a limiting protrusion 240 extending along the axial direction can be arranged on the inner wall of the mounting hole 210, and a limiting groove 330 extending along the axial direction can be arranged on the locking portion 30. The limiting protrusion 240 can be slidably arranged in the limiting groove 330 to restrict the movement track of the locking portion 30. Of course, the positions of the above-mentioned limiting protrusion 240 and limiting groove 330 can also be interchanged.

[0058] Furthermore, the locking mechanism can further include a pre-tightening member 40. The pre-tightening member 40 is arranged in the mounting hole 210 and configured to provide a force for maintaining the locked state to the locking portion 30.

[0059] That is to say, the pre-tightening member 40 can make the locking portion 30 in a normally locked state. It can be switched to the unlocked state only when an external force is applied.

[0060] Furthermore, the pre-tightening member 40 can also be a compression spring. The compression spring is arranged in the mounting hole 210. One end of it abuts against the inner wall of the mounting hole 210 far from the opening, and the other end abuts against or is fixed to the locking portion 30.

[0061] When the locking portion 30 slides inward under the action of an external force, the locking protrusion 310 thereon gradually moves away from the locking hole 160, that is, moves from the locked position to the unlocked position. The locking portion 30 compresses the compression spring, so that the compression spring generates an elastic restoring force that urges the locking portion 30 to move out of the mounting hole 210. In this way, when the external force is removed, under the action of this elastic restoring force, the locking portion 30 moves to the locked position.

[0062] In some embodiments, the mop 1 can further include an unlocking mechanism. The unlocking mechanism is arranged on the mop plate 10 to release the constraint of the locking mechanism on the scraping roller 20.

[0063] Since when the scraping roller 20 is arranged, the inward movement of the locking portion 30 is an unlocking process, the structure mechanism can unlock by driving the locking portion 30 to move inward.

[0064] Furthermore, the unlocking mechanism can further include a pressing portion 50. The pressing portion 50 is arranged on the mop plate 10 and abuts against the locking portion 30, and is used to drive and push the locking portion 30 so that the locking portion 30 is switched from the locked state to the unlocked state.

[0065] Specifically, the locking hole 160 can also be set as a through hole. The locking protrusion 310 on the locking portion 30 can penetrate into the locking hole 160 from the inside to the outside. The pressing portion 50 can be arranged on the outside of the locking hole 160 and push the locking protrusion 310 from the outside to the inside, so that the locking portion 30 is switched from the locked state to the unlocked state.

[0066] Furthermore, the pressing portion 50 can further include a pressing main body 510 and a plurality of pushing columns 520. The pressing main body 510 is used to receive external force. The plurality of pushing columns 520 correspond to the plurality of locking holes 160 one by one. The user can press the pressing main body 510, so that the plurality of pushing columns 520 push out the locking protrusions 310 in the plurality of locking holes 160.

[0067] In some embodiments, the mop plate 10 is rectangular. The scraping roller 20 is arranged at one end in the width direction of the mop plate 10, and the axis of the scraping roller 20 extends along the length direction of the mop plate 10.

[0068] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and such modifications and variations fall within the scope defined by the appended claims.
