Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of washing equipment, and particularly provides a waterway structure and a shoe washing device. Background Art

[0002] A drawer - type shoe washing machine is a specially designed shoe washing device. Its main feature is that its structure is similar to a drawer, which is convenient for users to put shoes in and take out. Compared with traditional shoe washing machines, the drawer - type shoe washing machine has a more compact and convenient structure and higher cleaning efficiency, and is more and more favored by users.

[0003] Currently, the existing drawer - type shoe washing machines mainly consist of two major parts, including a drawer and a box body. The drawer can be opened and closed within the box body. A cleaning bucket is installed in the drawer. The cleaning bucket is connected with a water inlet pipe and a drain pipe. When the shoes are washed once and completed, the sewage in the cleaning bucket is discharged through the drain pipe by a water pump. Then, after one - time drainage, due to the backflow of residual water, air will accumulate in the drain pipe at the upstream end of the water pump. Therefore, when draining water next time, it is easy to cause the problem of air entrapment in the water pump during drainage, resulting in a significant reduction in the working efficiency of the drainage pump, thus leading to poor drainage or a slow drainage speed, affecting the normal operation of the equipment and the user experience.

[0004] Therefore, a new technical solution is needed in this field to solve the above problems. Summary of the Utility Model

[0005] The utility model aims to solve the above - mentioned technical problems, that is, to solve the problem that the existing drawer - type shoe washing machine is prone to air entrapment during drainage, resulting in a reduction in the working efficiency of the drainage pump, leading to poor drainage or a slow drainage speed.

[0006] In a first aspect, the utility model provides a waterway structure of a shoe washing device. The shoe washing device includes a box body, a drawer and a cleaning bucket. The drawer is slidably embedded inside the box body. The cleaning bucket is installed in the drawer. The cleaning bucket has a drain port. The waterway structure is characterized in that it includes a first drainage mechanism, a second drainage mechanism, a pumping mechanism and a first exhaust pipe. Two ends of the first drainage mechanism are respectively communicated with the drain port and the water inlet of the pumping mechanism. Two ends of the second drainage mechanism are respectively communicated with the water outlet of the pumping mechanism and the outside of the box body. The sewage in the cleaning bucket flows through the first drainage mechanism, the pumping mechanism and the second drainage mechanism in sequence and is discharged to the outside of the box body. The first end of the first exhaust pipe is communicated with the pumping mechanism, and the second end of the first exhaust pipe is communicated with the cleaning bucket.

[0007] In a preferred technical solution of the above waterway structure, the second drainage mechanism includes a first drainage pipe, a drainage box, and an external drainage pipe. The first end of the first drainage pipe is connected to the water outlet of the pumping mechanism, the second end of the first drainage pipe is connected to the water inlet of the drainage box, the first end of the external drainage pipe is connected to the water outlet of the drainage box, the second end of the external drainage pipe is connected to the outside of the box body, and a second exhaust pipe is provided between the drainage box and the cleaning bucket. The first end of the second exhaust pipe is connected to the drainage box, and the second end of the second exhaust pipe is connected to the cleaning bucket.

[0008] In a preferred technical solution of the above waterway structure, the first drainage mechanism includes a second drainage pipe, a filtering component, and a third drainage pipe. The first end of the second drainage pipe is connected to the drainage port, the second end of the second drainage pipe is connected to the water inlet of the filtering component, the first end of the third drainage pipe is connected to the water outlet of the filtering component, and the second end of the third drainage pipe is connected to the water inlet of the pumping mechanism.

[0009] In a preferred technical solution of the above waterway structure, the first end of the first exhaust pipe is lower than the second end of the first exhaust pipe, and / or

[0010] the first end of the second exhaust pipe is lower than the second end of the second exhaust pipe.

[0011] In a preferred technical solution of the above waterway structure, the first exhaust pipe is made of a flexible material, and / or

[0012] the second exhaust pipe is made of a flexible material.

[0013] In a preferred technical solution of the above waterway structure, the first end of the external drainage pipe is lower than the second end of the external drainage pipe.

[0014] In a preferred technical solution of the above waterway structure, the second drainage pipe is made of a flexible material.

[0015] In a preferred technical solution of the above waterway structure, the filtering component is a drainage filter.

[0016] In a preferred technical solution of the above waterway structure, the pumping mechanism is a drainage pump.

[0017] In a second aspect, the present utility model further provides a shoe washing device, which includes the above waterway structure, and the waterway structure is arranged between the drawer and the box body.

[0018] Those skilled in the art can understand that the technical solution of the present utility model provides a water circuit structure of a shoe washing device. The shoe washing device includes a box body, a drawer and a cleaning bucket. The drawer is slidably embedded inside the box body, and the cleaning bucket is installed in the drawer. The cleaning bucket has a drain outlet. The water circuit structure is characterized in that it includes a first drainage mechanism, a second drainage mechanism, a pumping mechanism and a first exhaust pipe. The two ends of the first drainage mechanism are respectively communicated with the drain outlet and the water inlet of the pumping mechanism. The two ends of the second drainage mechanism are respectively communicated with the water outlet of the pumping mechanism and the outside of the box body. The sewage in the cleaning bucket flows through the first drainage mechanism, the pumping mechanism and the second drainage mechanism in sequence and is discharged to the outside of the box body. The first end of the first exhaust pipe is communicated with the pumping mechanism, and the second end of the first exhaust pipe is communicated with the cleaning bucket. In the case of adopting the above technical solution, the present utility model can avoid the reduction of the working efficiency of the drainage pump caused by air entrapment during drainage of the shoe washing device, resulting in poor drainage or slow drainage speed. Specifically, the first drainage mechanism serves as the initial channel for sewage discharge, guiding the sewage in the cleaning bucket to the pumping mechanism. The pumping mechanism pressurizes the sewage transported by the first drainage mechanism and sends it to the second drainage mechanism to achieve long-distance or efficient sewage discharge. In addition to being connected to the first drainage mechanism and the second drainage mechanism, the pumping mechanism is also connected to the cleaning bucket through the first exhaust pipe. Thus, during the pumping process, the gas in the pumping mechanism is discharged into the cleaning bucket through the first exhaust pipe, which can maintain the air pressure balance inside the pumping mechanism, thereby helping to reduce the back pressure caused by gas accumulation, improve the pumping efficiency, and prevent the occurrence of air entrapment during drainage.

[0019] Furthermore, the second drainage mechanism of the present utility model includes a first drain pipe, a drainage box and an external drain pipe. The first end of the first drain pipe is connected to the water outlet of the pumping mechanism, the second end of the first drain pipe is connected to the water inlet of the drainage box, the first end of the external drain pipe is connected to the water outlet of the drainage box, and the second end of the external drain pipe is connected to the outside of the box body. A second exhaust pipe is provided between the drainage box and the cleaning bucket. The first end of the second exhaust pipe is connected to the drainage box, and the second end of the second exhaust pipe is connected to the cleaning bucket. Through this setting, when the pumping mechanism starts to work, the sewage is pressurized and transported to the drainage box through the first drain pipe. During this process, the dissolved gas in the sewage will be released due to the change in pressure, forming bubbles and accumulating in the first drain pipe and the drainage box. And through the second exhaust pipe, when the air pressure in the drainage box or the first drain pipe rises (due to gas accumulation), the gas will flow along the pressure gradient through the second exhaust pipe to the cleaning bucket, so that the drainage process is smoother, and further effectively prevents the problem of air entrapment in the pumping mechanism.

[0020] Furthermore, the first drainage mechanism of the present utility model includes a second drain pipe, a filtering component, and a third drain pipe. The first end of the second drain pipe is connected to the drainage port, the second end of the second drain pipe is connected to the water inlet of the filtering component, the first end of the third drain pipe is connected to the water outlet of the filtering component, and the second end of the third drain pipe is connected to the water inlet of the pumping mechanism. Through this arrangement, the filtering component can remove impurities and particulate matters in the sewage, improve the water quality, reduce the damage to the pumping mechanism, thereby reducing the blockage and wear of the pumping mechanism, and preventing the problem of poor drainage or slow drainage speed caused by the blockage of the pumping mechanism.

[0021] Furthermore, the first end of the first exhaust pipe of the present utility model is lower than the second end of the first exhaust pipe, and / or the first end of the second exhaust pipe is lower than the second end of the second exhaust pipe. Through this arrangement, since the first ends of the first exhaust pipe and the second exhaust pipe are lower, the gas will naturally rise and flow towards the second ends of the first exhaust pipe and the second exhaust pipe during the drainage process, thus being more easily discharged through the exhaust pipe, which is more helpful for reducing the accumulation of gas in the pipeline, preventing the occurrence of air entrapment phenomenon. In addition, it can also reduce the resistance when the gas flows in the pipeline, making the gas discharge smoother.

[0022] Furthermore, the first end of the outer drain pipe of the present utility model is lower than the second end of the outer drain pipe. Through this arrangement, the water flow can flow more smoothly along the outer drain pipe, reducing the phenomena of water accumulation and backflow caused by the obstruction of the water flow. In addition, it is also helpful for reducing the deposition of dirt and impurities in the outer drain pipe, thereby reducing the risk of blockage of the outer drain pipe. Description of the Drawings

[0037] The preferred implementation manners of the present utility model will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art should understand that these implementation manners are only used to explain the technical principle of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present utility model. For example, although the following implementation manners are introduced in combination with a drawer-type shoe washing machine, the water circuit structure provided by the present utility model is also applicable to other products that need to solve the problems of drainage air entrapment.

[0038] It should be noted that in the description of the present utility model, unless otherwise clearly defined and limited, the terms "set" and "connect" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection. For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific situations.

[0039] Based on the problems pointed out in the background technology that the existing drawer-type shoe washing machine is prone to drainage air entrapment, resulting in a reduction in the working efficiency of the drainage pump, and causing poor drainage or slow drainage speed. The present utility model provides a water circuit structure of a shoe washing device and a shoe washing device, aiming to effectively solve the problem of drainage air entrapment in the drawer-type shoe washing machine by providing a first exhaust pipe, connecting the first end of the first exhaust pipe to the pumping mechanism, and connecting the second end of the first exhaust pipe to the cleaning bucket.

[0040] First, refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 , where Figure 1 is the axonometric view of the shoe washing device of the present utility model, Figure 2 is the top view of the shoe washing device of the present utility model, Figure 3 is the structural schematic diagram of the water circuit structure of the present utility model Figure 1 .

[0041] As shown in Figures 1 to 3As shown in the figure, the utility model provides a water circuit structure of a shoe washing device. The shoe washing device includes a box body 1, a drawer 2 and a cleaning bucket 3. The drawer 2 is slidably embedded inside the box body 1, and the cleaning bucket 3 is installed in the drawer 2. The cleaning bucket 3 has a drain port 31. The water circuit structure includes a first drainage mechanism 4, a second drainage mechanism 5, a pumping mechanism 6 and a first exhaust pipe 7. Both ends of the first drainage mechanism 4 are respectively communicated with the drain port 31 and the water inlet of the pumping mechanism 6. Both ends of the second drainage mechanism 5 are respectively communicated with the water outlet of the pumping mechanism 6 and the outside of the box body 1. The sewage in the cleaning bucket 3 flows through the first drainage mechanism 4, the pumping mechanism 6 and the second drainage mechanism 5 in sequence and is discharged outside the box body 1. The first end of the first exhaust pipe 7 is communicated with the pumping mechanism 6, and the second end of the first exhaust pipe 7 is communicated with the cleaning bucket 3.

[0042] The first drainage mechanism 4 serves as a preliminary channel for sewage discharge. Its function is to guide the sewage in the cleaning bucket 3 into the pumping mechanism 6. One end of it is tightly connected to the drain port 31 of the cleaning bucket 3 to ensure that sewage does not leak, and the other end is connected to the water inlet of the pumping mechanism 6 to provide the sewage to be treated for the pumping mechanism 6. The pumping mechanism 6 can provide power to pressurize the sewage transported by the first drainage mechanism 4 and send it to the second drainage mechanism 5 to achieve efficient sewage discharge. The second drainage mechanism 5 safely and efficiently discharges the sewage pressurized by the pumping mechanism 6 outside the box body 1 of the drawer-type shoe washing machine. In addition, by connecting the first end of the first exhaust pipe 7 to the pumping mechanism 6 and the second end of the first exhaust pipe 7 to the cleaning bucket 3, during the operation of the pumping mechanism 6, if gas accumulates inside the first drainage mechanism 4 or the pumping mechanism 6, these gases will be guided into the cleaning bucket 3 through the first exhaust pipe 7, which can maintain the air pressure balance inside the pumping mechanism 6, thereby helping to reduce the back pressure caused by gas accumulation, improve the pumping efficiency, prevent the occurrence of drainage air entrapment phenomenon, and ensure that the sewage in the cleaning bucket 3 can be discharged efficiently and smoothly. In addition, directly discharging the gas into the cleaning bucket 3 can avoid setting additional gas treatment devices outside the pumping mechanism 6, thereby simplifying the overall design of the drainage system and reducing the risk of equipment failure and damage caused by gas accumulation, thus reducing the equipment maintenance cost.

[0043] Preferably, the pumping mechanism 6 of the present utility model is a drainage pump. The sewage in the cleaning bucket 3 is discharged outside the box body 1 through the pumping action of the drainage pump. Further, the drainage pump of the present utility model is a semi-open impeller centrifugal pump or an open impeller centrifugal pump, so as to have a certain anti-blocking ability to prevent the particles in the shoes from causing blockage of the drainage pump. Further still, in other embodiments, the drainage pump can also be a single-suction centrifugal pump, a double-suction centrifugal pump, etc. The present utility model does not make specific limitations on the type of the drainage pump, as long as it can ensure the efficient discharge of sewage.

[0044] Preferably, as Figures 2 to 4As shown in the figure, the second drainage mechanism 5 includes a first drainage pipe 51, a drainage box 52, and an external drainage pipe 53. The first end of the first drainage pipe 51 is connected to the water outlet of the pumping mechanism 6, the second end of the first drainage pipe 51 is connected to the water inlet of the drainage box 52, the first end of the external drainage pipe 53 is connected to the water outlet of the drainage box 52, and the second end of the external drainage pipe 53 is connected to the outside of the box body 1. A second exhaust pipe 8 is provided between the drainage box 52 and the cleaning bucket 3. The first end of the second exhaust pipe 8 is connected to the drainage box 52, and the second end of the second exhaust pipe 8 is connected to the cleaning bucket 3.

[0045] The first drainage pipe 51 serves as a connecting pipe between the pumping mechanism 6 and the drainage box 52. One end of it is tightly connected to the water outlet of the pumping mechanism 6, and the other end is connected to the water inlet of the drainage box 52, responsible for transporting the sewage pressurized by the pumping mechanism 6 to the drainage box 52. The drainage box 52 serves as a container for temporarily storing and further treating sewage, which can slow down the flow rate of sewage, precipitate impurities, or perform other pretreatment. The external drainage pipe 53 can safely and efficiently discharge the sewage in the drainage box 52 to the outside of the box body 1. When the pumping mechanism 6 starts to work, the sewage is pressurized and transported to the drainage box 52 through the first drainage pipe 51. The sewage is temporarily stored in the drainage box 52 and undergoes preliminary treatment (such as precipitating impurities), and then is discharged outside the box body 1 through the external drainage pipe 53. During the drainage process, the dissolved gas in the sewage will be released due to the change in pressure, forming bubbles and accumulating in the first drainage pipe 51 and the drainage box 52. And through the second exhaust pipe 8, when the air pressure in the drainage box 52 or the first drainage pipe 51 increases (due to gas accumulation), the gas will flow along the pressure gradient through the second exhaust pipe 8 to the cleaning bucket 3, so as to make the drainage process smoother, further effectively prevent the problem of air entrapment in the pumping mechanism 6 during drainage, and achieve the rapid and efficient discharge of sewage. Further, the second exhaust pipe 8 not only helps to discharge gas, but also can maintain the air pressure balance between the drainage box 52 and the cleaning bucket 3 during the drainage process, helping to reduce the resistance caused by the air pressure difference and making the drainage process smoother.

[0046] Preferably, as Figures 2 to 4 shown, the first drainage mechanism 4 includes a second drainage pipe 41, a filtering component 42, and a third drainage pipe 43. The first end of the second drainage pipe 41 is connected to the drainage port 31, the second end of the second drainage pipe 41 is connected to the water inlet of the filtering component 42, the first end of the third drainage pipe 43 is connected to the water outlet of the filtering component 42, and the second end of the third drainage pipe 43 is connected to the water inlet of the pumping mechanism 6.

[0047] The second drain pipe 41, as a pipe connecting the drain outlet 31 and the filtering component 42, is responsible for guiding the sewage from the drain outlet 31 to the filtering component 42 for treatment. One end of it is tightly connected to the drain outlet 31 to ensure the smooth inflow of sewage; the other end is tightly connected to the water inlet of the filtering component 42 to ensure the smooth inflow of sewage into the filtering component 42; the filtering component 42 filters the incoming sewage to remove impurities, particulate matters, etc. in it to improve the water quality; the third drain pipe 43 transports the water treated by the filtering component 42 to the water inlet of the pumping mechanism 6, and the water is discharged through the pumping mechanism 6. Through the filtering effect of the filtering component 42 of the present utility model, the damage to the pumping mechanism 6 caused by impurities in the sewage can be reduced, and the risks of blockage and wear of the pumping mechanism 6 can be lowered, thereby preventing the problem of unsmooth drainage or slow drainage speed caused by the blockage of the pumping mechanism 6.

[0048] Preferably, the filtering component 42 is a drain filter.

[0049] The working principle of the drain filter is based on physical filtration and gravity. When the sewage in the cleaning bucket 3 passes through the filter, the impurities therein are intercepted by the filter mesh frame and collected in the filter cylinder. As the impurities accumulate, the liquid level inside the filter gradually rises. When the liquid level reaches the set drainage condition, the automatic drain valve automatically opens to discharge the accumulated liquid outside the filter. At the same time, the filtered clean liquid or gas continues to flow out through the filter, thereby being able to effectively intercept and collect various impurities in the cleaning bucket 3 and improve the filtration efficiency. In addition, in other embodiments, the filtering component 42 can also be other types of filtering components 42 such as a screen filter, a particle filter, etc. The present utility model does not limit the specific type of the filtering component 42 as long as it can effectively intercept the impurities and particles in the sewage.

[0050] Preferably, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the first end of the first exhaust pipe 7 is lower than the second end of the first exhaust pipe 7, and / or the first end of the second exhaust pipe 8 is lower than the second end of the second exhaust pipe 8.

[0051] More preferably, the first end of the first exhaust pipe 7 of the present utility model is lower than the second end of the first exhaust pipe 7 and the first end of the second exhaust pipe 8 is lower than the second end of the second exhaust pipe 8. Since the first ends of the first exhaust pipe 7 and the second exhaust pipe 8 are lower, the gas will naturally rise and flow towards the second ends of the first exhaust pipe 7 and the second exhaust pipe 8 during the drainage process, so it is easier to be discharged through the exhaust pipe, which is more helpful for reducing the accumulation of gas in the pipeline, preventing the occurrence of air entrapment phenomenon. In addition, it can also reduce the resistance when the gas flows in the pipeline and make the gas discharge smoother.

[0052] Preferably, the first exhaust pipe 7 is made of a flexible material, and / or the second exhaust pipe 8 is made of a flexible material.

[0053] More preferably, both the first exhaust pipe 7 and the second exhaust pipe 8 in the present utility model are made of flexible materials. Since the drawer 2 type shoe washing machine needs to pull out the drawer 2 during use, during the process of pulling out the drawer 2, the first exhaust pipe 7 and the second exhaust pipe 8 have to move along with the drawer 2. Therefore, in the present utility model, the first exhaust pipe 7 and the second exhaust pipe 8 are set to be made of flexible materials, and they can be bent, twisted or stretched, so that they will not break during the process of following the movement of the drawer 2, ensuring the normal discharge of gas.

[0054] Exemplarily, both the first exhaust pipe 7 and the second exhaust pipe 8 are made of rubber materials. Rubber has the advantages of high toughness, high elasticity, wear resistance and corrosion resistance. Selecting rubber material as the material of the first exhaust pipe 7 and the second exhaust pipe 8 can ensure that the first exhaust pipe 7 and the second exhaust pipe 8 will not break under the action of repeated bending, twisting or stretching, and can ensure the smoothness of drainage. In addition, since the processing technology of rubber is very mature and the source of rubber is rich, and the physical and chemical properties of rubber are also very stable, which is suitable for use in a humid environment such as a shoe washing machine. Therefore, using rubber as the material of the first exhaust pipe 7 and the second exhaust pipe 8 can not only reduce the production cost of parts, but also extend the service life of parts. Of course, in other embodiments, the first exhaust pipe 7 and the second exhaust pipe 8 can also be made of polymer materials such as PVC (polyvinyl chloride) and PE (polyethylene). The present utility model does not specifically limit the specific flexible materials of the first exhaust pipe 7 and the second exhaust pipe 8, as long as it can ensure that the first exhaust pipe 7 and the second exhaust pipe 8 will not break under the action of repeated bending, twisting or stretching.

[0055] Preferably, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the first end of the outer drain pipe 53 is lower than the second end of the outer drain pipe 53.

[0056] Through this setting, the water flow can flow more smoothly along the outer drain pipe 53, reducing the phenomenon of water accumulation and backflow caused by the obstruction of the water flow, and also helping to reduce the deposition of dirt and impurities in the outer drain pipe 53, thereby reducing the risk of blockage of the outer drain pipe 53. In addition, during the drainage process, the air pressure in the outer drain pipe 53 will change. The design that the first end of the drain pipe is lower than the second end of the outer drain pipe 53 helps to maintain the air pressure balance inside and outside the outer drain pipe 53, preventing the outer drain pipe 53 from bursting or leaking due to excessive air pressure difference.

[0057] Preferably, the second drain pipe 41 is made of a flexible material.

[0058] Since the drawer - type shoe - washing machine needs to pull out the drawer 2 during use, during the process of pulling out the drawer 2, the second drain pipe 41 also needs to move along with the drawer 2. Therefore, in the present utility model, the second drain pipe 41 is made of a flexible material. The second drain pipe 41 can be bent, twisted or stretched, so that it will not break during the process of following the movement of the drawer 2, ensuring the normal discharge of the sewage in the cleaning bucket 3.

[0059] Exemplarily, the second drain pipe 41 is also made of rubber material. In addition, the second drain pipe 41 can also be made of polymer materials such as PVC (polyvinyl chloride), PE (polyethylene), etc. The present utility model does not make specific limitations on the specific flexible material of the second drain pipe 41.

[0060] In addition, the present utility model also provides a shoe - washing device, and the shoe - washing device includes the above - mentioned water - path structure, and the water - path structure is arranged between the drawer 2 and the box body 1.

[0061] So far, the technical solutions of the present utility model have been described in conjunction with the preferred embodiments shown in the drawings. However, it is easy for those skilled in the art to understand that the protection scope of the present utility model is obviously not limited to these specific embodiments. On the premise of not deviating from the principle of the present utility model, those skilled in the art can make equivalent changes or substitutions to the relevant technical features, and the technical solutions after these changes or substitutions will all fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
