Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of floor-sweeping robots, and particularly relates to an anti-static protective cover for a floor-sweeping robot. Background Art

[0002] As a kind of intelligent household appliance, a floor-sweeping robot can automatically complete the floor cleaning work by means of artificial intelligence. However, during actual operation, static electricity will be generated between the robot and the floor, which will affect the internal circuit of the floor-sweeping robot and prevent it from discharging static electricity, and then the robot will stop working or even be damaged. Therefore, it is particularly important for the floor-sweeping robot to take anti-static measures.

[0003] At present, the patent application No. CN202021798034.7 discloses an intelligent floor-sweeping robot with a static electricity discharge function, which includes a housing. A static charge collection component and a static charge release component are arranged inside the housing. The static charge release component includes a static electricity release walking wheel arranged on the bottom surface of the housing and a static electricity release brush head abutted against the outer peripheral wall of the static electricity release walking wheel. The static electricity release brush head is connected to the static charge collection component through a static electricity release wire, and the static electricity release walking wheel is made of a conductive material.

[0004] Although the existing anti-static floor-sweeping robots can achieve the anti-static effect, the anti-static devices need to be directly installed on the robot body. Therefore, the anti-static devices need to be customized and installed according to the specific structure of each floor-sweeping robot, which brings problems such as increased cost, complex installation and maintenance, and low compatibility. Summary of the Utility Model

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an anti-static protective cover for a floor-sweeping robot that is generally adaptable to most floor-sweeping robots, easy to install and maintain, and has a low cost.

[0006] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:

[0007] An anti-static protective cover for a floor-sweeping robot, including a cover body, and an accommodation cavity for accommodating the floor-sweeping robot is arranged inside the cover body;

[0008] The cover body is fixed to the floor-sweeping robot through a plurality of conductive connectors, and a conductive movable part is arranged at the bottom of the cover body;

[0009] The floor-sweeping robot drives the cover body to move. When static electricity is generated, the static electricity is conducted to the cover body through the conductive connectors, and the cover body finally conducts the static electricity to the ground through the conductive movable part.

[0010] Further, the cover body is cylindrical, and the bottom surface is a circular ring-shaped bottom plate, and the central position of the bottom plate is used to arrange the accommodation cavity.

[0011] Further, the conductive movable component includes a roller bracket and rollers. The rollers are mounted on the roller bracket, and the roller bracket is fixed to the bottom plate through a mounting plate.

[0012] Further, the conductive connecting component includes a fixing rod and a rod head. The rod head is provided at the end of the fixing rod facing the cover body, and a spring is also sleeved on the fixing rod.

[0013] Further, a steering wheel and a driving wheel are provided at the bottom of the floor sweeping robot. The heights of the steering wheel and the driving wheel from the ground are the same as the height of the bottom plate from the ground.

[0014] Further, the cover body is also provided with an induction observation window, and the position of the induction observation window corresponds to the position of the infrared induction of the floor sweeping robot.

[0015] Further, a grounding wire fixing point is also provided on the inner wall of the cover body for connecting the grounding wire of the floor sweeping robot, and a plurality of heat dissipation holes are also provided at the top of the cover body.

[0016] Further, the cover body is a stainless steel material shell.

[0017] Further, there are six groups of conductive movable components, and the angle between each group is 60° and they are circularly arrayed on the bottom plate.

[0018] Further, there are [number] conductive connecting components, and the angle between each group is 60° and they are circularly arrayed on the side wall of the cover body.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:

[0020] By sleeving a cover body outside the floor sweeping robot, the present utility model achieves the effect of conducting static electricity out of the outer shell. Specifically, the floor sweeping robot is accommodated in the accommodation cavity provided inside the cover body, and then the two are connected together through the conductive connecting component. When static electricity is generated by the floor sweeping robot, the static electricity is conducted to the cover body through the conductive conductive connecting component, and then the static electricity is finally conducted to the ground through the conductive movable component provided at the bottom of the cover body. Therefore, the housing structure based on this conduction path solves the problem that traditional floor sweeping robots need to be customized and installed according to their own specific structures, reducing the cost and the complexity of installation and maintenance.

[0028] It should be noted that the cover body 1 is cylindrical, and the bottom of the cover body 1 is provided with a circular ring-shaped bottom plate 13, and the central position thereof is used to arrange the accommodating cavity 14;

[0029] Specifically, first place the floor cleaning robot 4 on a horizontal plane, and then align the central position of the bottom plate 13 of the cover body 1 with the floor cleaning robot 4, and then sleeve it from top to bottom until it is completed.

[0030] The floor cleaning robot 4 and the cover body 1 are fixed by six conductive connectors 3;

[0031] It should be noted that the cover body 1 is cylindrical, the conductive connector 3 components are at 60°, and are circularly arranged along the side wall of the cover body 1.

[0033] It should be noted that the spring 31 can ensure that the floor cleaning robot 4 and the cover body 1 are kept in a tightened state after combination to prevent loosening, and the function of the rod head 32 is to facilitate the installation and disassembly by the operator;

[0034] Specifically, when fixing the floor sweeping robot 4 and the cover body 1, align the rod head 32 with the fixing hole 11, and then push the rod head 32 to make the whole penetrate between the floor sweeping robot 4 and the cover body 1;

[0035] Six conductive movable parts 2 are annularly arranged along the bottom plate 13, and the angle between each two adjacent conductive movable parts 2 is 60°;

[0036] Specifically, after static electricity is generated, the static electricity is conducted to the cover body 1 through the conductive conductivity connecting piece 3, and the cover body 1 finally conducts the static electricity to the ground through the conductive movable parts 2 arranged at the bottom of the cover body 1.

[0037] The conductive movable part 2 includes a roller bracket 21 and a roller 22. The roller 22 is installed on the roller bracket 21, and the roller bracket 21 is fixed on the bottom plate 13 through a mounting plate 20;

[0039] Steering wheels 41 and drive wheels 42 are arranged at the bottom of the floor sweeping robot 4;

[0040] It should be noted that the heights of the steering wheels 41 and the drive wheels 42 from the ground are the same as the height of the conductive movable parts from the ground;

[0041] Specifically, since the cover body 1 does not have a driving component, the floor sweeping robot 4 needs to drive the cover body 1 to move together;

[0042] An induction observation window 12 is also arranged on the side wall of the cover body 1, and the position of the induction observation window 12 corresponds to the position of the infrared induction of the floor sweeping robot 4;

[0043] Specifically, after the induction observation window 12 is corresponded with the infrared induction, the floor sweeping robot performs scanning detection through the infrared induction observation window of the anti-static protection cover, without affecting the detection and recognition function of the floor sweeping robot.

[0044] In this embodiment, a grounding wire fixing point is also arranged on the inner wall of the cover body 1 for connecting the grounding wire of the floor sweeping robot 4;

[0045] It should be noted that the grounding wire fixing point is a copper nut welded on the side wall of the cover body 1.

[0046] In this embodiment, heat dissipation holes 10 are evenly distributed on the top of the cover body 1.

[0047] In this embodiment, the cover body 1 is made of a stainless steel material shell, and the conductive movable part 2 is made of a pure copper material.

[0048] In this embodiment, static electricity coatings are respectively sprayed on the inner wall and the outer wall of the cover body 1.

[0049] It should be noted that the floor sweeping robot 4 is a prior art, so it will not be elaborated here.

[0050] Working principle:

[0051] 1. Basic design of electrostatic protection:

[0052] The anti-static protective cover is composed of an electrostatic outer shell 1, and an accommodation cavity 14 is arranged inside for accommodating the floor sweeping robot 4.

[0053] The electrostatic outer shell 1 is fixedly connected to the floor sweeping robot 4 through a plurality of conductive connecting members 3.

[0054] 2. Electrostatic conduction path:

[0055] When the floor sweeping robot 4 generates static electricity during operation, the static electricity will be conducted to the electrostatic outer shell 1 through the conductive connecting members 3.

[0056] Conductive movable parts 2 are installed at the bottom of the electrostatic outer shell 1, and these components finally conduct the static electricity to the ground to prevent static electricity accumulation.

[0057] 3. Structural characteristics of the outer shell and components:

[0058] The electrostatic outer shell 1 is cylindrical, the bottom surface is an annular bottom plate 13, and an accommodation cavity 14 is located at the center.

[0059] The conductive movable part 2 includes a roller bracket 21 and rollers 22. The rollers 22 are installed on the roller bracket 21 and fixed to the bottom plate 13 through a mounting plate 20.

[0060] The conductive connecting member 3 includes a fixing rod 30 and a rod head 32, and a spring 31 is sleeved on the fixing rod 30.

[0061] 4. Coordination between the movement of the floor sweeping robot and the electrostatic outer shell:

[0062] Steering wheels 41 and driving wheels 42 are arranged at the bottom of the floor sweeping robot 4, and the heights of these wheels are the same as the height from the bottom plate 13 to the ground, ensuring that the robot and the protective cover can move synchronously.

[0063] 5. Induction and grounding design of the electrostatic outer shell:

[0064] An induction observation window 12 is provided on the electrostatic outer shell 1, corresponding to the position of the infrared sensor of the floor sweeping robot 4, ensuring that the induction function of the robot is not affected.

[0065] A grounding wire fixing point is also arranged on the inner wall of the electrostatic outer shell 1 for connecting the grounding wire of the floor sweeping robot 4 to further increase the safe release of static electricity.

[0066] 6. Design of Materials and Arrangement:

[0067] The static housing 1 is made of stainless steel, and the conductive moving part 2 is made of pure copper, which has good electrical conductivity and durability.

[0068] Both the conductive moving part 2 and the conductive connecting piece 3 are distributed in a circular array, ensuring the stability and reliability of the housing during movement.

[0069] In summary, by using the conductive connecting piece and the conductive moving part, the static electricity is safely conducted to the ground, protecting the sweeping robot and the electrical equipment in the surrounding environment. At the same time, this structure takes into account the movement coordination and sensing function of the robot to ensure its normal operation.
