A steam quick connector 111, an aviation connector 112, and a cleaning switch 112 are fixedly arranged on the outer surface of the upper cover 11. The steam outlet of the steam generator 4 is connected to the steam quick connector 111 through a pipeline 7. The nozzle of the steam spray pipe 16 on one side of the electric telescopic rod 13 is communicated with the steam quick connector 111 through a telescopic pipe. A steam solenoid valve 113 is arranged on the telescopic pipe between the nozzle of the steam spray pipe 16 and the steam quick connector 111. The cleaning switch 112, the steam solenoid valve 113, the electric telescopic rod 13, and the brush motor 14 are all electrically connected to the aviation connector 112. The controller 3 is electrically connected to the aviation connector 112 through a wire 8. A handle 9 is arranged on the top of the cleaning head.

[0020] Working description: The staff holds the handle 9 and places the cleaning head 1 above the embedded light, so that the cleaning cover 6 covers the embedded light, and places the fixing bolt of the embedded light into the alignment notch 61 to align the brush head of the brush 15 with the lamp socket of the embedded light.

[0021] As Figure 4As shown, the cleaning switch 112 is connected in series with the coils of the intermediate relay KM1, the time relay KT1, and the normally closed contact of the time relay KT5 in the control circuit of the controller 3.

The normally open contact of the series-connected time relay KT2, the coil of the intermediate relay KM2, and the coil of the time relay KT3 are connected in parallel and energized with the coil of the time relay KT2. The normally open contact of the series-connected time relay KT3, the coil of the intermediate relay KM3, the coil of the time relay KT4, and the coil of the time relay KT5 are connected in parallel with the series-connected coils of the intermediate relay KM2 and the time relay KT3.

[0023] When the cleaning switch 123 is turned on, the electric telescopic rod 14 is energized and extends, pushing the lifting plate 12 towards the embedded lamp. After reaching the set time of the time relay KT1, the electric telescopic rod 14 is fully extended. At the same time, the brush motor 14 operates, driving the brush 15 to rotate forward and backward intermittently to brush the lamp socket of the embedded lamp. During the operation of the brush motor 14, the steam solenoid valve 113 opens and closes regularly, controlling the steam generated by the steam generator 4 to be ejected from the steam nozzle 16 towards the nozzle below the brush 15 through the pipeline 7 and the steam quick connector 111, spraying the steam on the lamp socket of the embedded lamp to facilitate the brush 15 to remove the stains on the lamp socket of the embedded lamp. After the cleaning time reaches the set time in the controller 3, the controller 3 controls the steam solenoid valve 113 to close, controls the brush motor 14 to stop operating, and controls the electric telescopic rod 13 to retract. When the electric telescopic rod 13 is fully retracted, the cleaning operation of the embedded lamp is completed.

The water inlet of the foam pot 17 is connected to the water outlet of the water pump 10 through a pipeline. The water pump 10 sends the water in the water tank 5 into the foam pot 17, and the water in the foam pot 17 is mixed with the cleaning agent in the foam pot 17 to generate foam; the water outlet of the foam pot 17 is communicated with the cleaning agent quick connector 114 through a pipeline; a cleaning agent spray pipe 18 passing through the lifting plate 12 is arranged on the lifting plate 12. One side of the cleaning agent spray pipe 18 of the electric telescopic rod 13 is communicated with the cleaning agent quick connector 114 through a telescopic pipe; a cleaning agent solenoid valve 115 is arranged on the telescopic pipe between the cleaning agent spray pipe 18 and the cleaning agent quick connector 114, and the cleaning agent solenoid valve 115 is electrically connected to the aviation connector 112; the nozzle of the cleaning agent spray pipe 18 on one side of the cleaning cover 6 faces downward the brush 15.

[0025] Working description: The staff holds the handle 9 and places the cleaning head 1 above the embedded light, so that the cleaning cover 6 covers the embedded light, and places the fixing bolt of the embedded light in the alignment notch 61, so that the brush head of the brush 15 is aligned with the lamp socket of the embedded light.

[0026] As Figure 9 As shown in the figure, the cleaning switch 112 is connected in series with the coils of the intermediate relay KM1, the time relay KT1, and the normally closed contact of the time relay KT5 in the control circuit of the controller 3. The cleaning switch 112 is connected in parallel with a normally open contact of the intermediate relay KM1.

[0027] As Figure 10As shown in the figure, the electric telescopic rod 13 is connected in series with the normally open contact of the intermediate relay KM1 and the normally closed contact of the time relay KT1 in the control circuit of the controller 3; the normally open contact of the intermediate relay KM3 and the normally open contact of the time relay KT6 connected in series are connected in parallel with the normally open contact of the intermediate relay KM1 and the normally closed contact of the time relay KT1 connected in series; the normally open contact of the intermediate relay KM2 connected in series and the brush motor 14 are connected in parallel with the normally closed contact of the time relay KT1 and the electric telescopic rod 13 connected in series; the steam solenoid valve 113 is connected in series with the normally open contact of the time relay KT1 and the normally closed contact of the time relay KT2; the normally open contact of the time relay KT4 is connected in parallel with the normally closed contact of the time relay KT2; the cleaning agent solenoid valve 115 is connected in series with the normally open contact of the time relay KT3 and the normally closed contact of the time relay KT4.

After reaching the time set by the time relay KT1, the electric telescopic rod 14 is just fully extended. At the same time, the brush motor 14 works, driving the brush 15 to rotate forward and reverse intermittently, brushing the lamp socket of the embedded lamp. During the operation of the brush motor 14, the steam solenoid valve 113 and the cleaning agent solenoid valve 115 open and close intermittently at regular intervals; the opening and closing of the steam solenoid valve 113 control the steam generated by the steam generator 4 to be ejected from the steam nozzle 16 towards the nozzle below the brush 15 through the pipeline 7 and the steam quick connector 111, spraying the steam on the lamp socket of the embedded lamp, facilitating the removal of stains on the lamp socket of the embedded lamp by the brush 15; the opening and closing of the cleaning agent solenoid valve 115 control the foam generated in the foam pot 17 to be ejected from the cleaning agent nozzle 18 towards the nozzle below the brush 15 through the cleaning agent quick connector 114, spraying the foam on the lamp socket of the embedded lamp, facilitating the removal of stains on the lamp socket of the embedded lamp by the brush 15; the steam solenoid valve 113 and the cleaning agent solenoid valve 115 open and close intermittently at regular intervals, realizing that when the controller 3 controls the cleaning agent solenoid valve 115 to open, the steam solenoid valve 113 closes, that is, the cleaning agent solenoid valve 115 and the steam solenoid valve 113 are interlocked with each other to prevent the foam sprayed on the lamp socket of the embedded lamp from being blown away by the steam; after the cleaning time reaches the set time in the controller 3, the controller 3 controls the steam solenoid valve 113 and the cleaning agent solenoid valve 115 to close, controls the brush motor 14 to stop working, and controls the electric telescopic rod 13 to retract. When the electric telescopic rod 13 is fully retracted, this cleaning operation of the embedded lamp is completed.
