[0039] Refer to Figure 1As shown in the figure, according to the cleaning device 1000 provided by the embodiments of the present utility model, the cleaning device 1000 includes a housing 100, a cleaning assembly 200, and a pulsed intense light sterilization device 300. It should be noted that the cleaning device 1000 can be a household cleaning appliance such as a vacuum cleaner or a floor washer. The cleaning assembly 200 is installed in the housing 100. The cleaning assembly 200 can be a partial structure that realizes the cleaning function in household cleaning appliances such as a vacuum cleaner, a floor washer, or a mite remover, and can remove dust, hair, or oil stains on the surface of the object to be cleaned. For example, the cleaning assembly 200 can be a rotatable roller or brush that can roll on the surface of the object to be cleaned. The cleaning assembly 200 can also be a layer of mop or sponge. The pulsed intense light sterilization device 300 is mainly used for sterilizing and removing mites on the surface of the object to be cleaned. Refer to Figure 1 As shown in the figure, the following takes the cleaning device 1000 as a mite remover as an example for illustration.

[0040] Refer to Figure 1 As shown in the figure, a light outlet 110 is provided at the bottom of the housing 100. The pulsed intense light sterilization device 300 includes an energy storage module 320, a discharge module, and a pulsed light source 330. The energy storage module 320 can be arranged inside or outside the pulsed intense light sterilization device 300. The energy storage module 320 is mainly used for storing electrical energy. The discharge module is mainly used for transmitting the electrical energy released by the energy storage module 320. The pulsed light source 330 can convert the electrical energy released by the energy storage module 320 into pulsed intense light, or it can also be understood as instantaneous intense light. The pulsed intense light can be emitted from the light outlet 110 of the housing 100. It should be noted that the pulsed intense light has high energy, high light intensity, and strong penetrability, and can destroy the cell walls and nucleic acid structures of microorganisms such as bacteria or fungi, thereby killing these microorganisms and playing a sterilization role. Moreover, the pulsed intense light can also effectively kill small arthropods such as mites. The pulsed intense light sterilization device 300 can be arranged in the mite remover to achieve the effect of sterilizing and removing mites. Compared with traditional UV ultraviolet rays, the pulsed intense light can shorten the time spent on sterilizing and removing mites, improve the sterilization efficiency, and improve the user experience.

[0041] In some embodiments, the discharge module can be a discharge circuit. The discharge module can release the electrical energy stored in the energy storage module 320. It can also be understood that the discharge module has the function of transmitting electrical energy. The discharge module transmits the electrical energy released by the energy storage module 320 to the pulsed light source 330. For example, the transmission of electrical energy is achieved by means of coupled boosting. In some other embodiments, the discharge module can only implement the function of transmitting electrical energy. For example, the discharge module includes an electric wire, and the electric wire connects the energy storage module 320 and the pulsed light source 330. The electrical energy of the energy storage module 320 is transmitted to the pulsed light source 330 through the electric wire. Additionally, in some embodiments, the discharge module has a control function. The discharge module can be a control circuit that adjusts the charging and discharging cycles of the energy storage module 320, that is, it plays a controlling role in the charging process and discharging process of the energy storage module 320. For example, according to the actual application scenario, through the control function of the energy storage module 320, various parameters of the pulsed strong light can be adaptively changed to improve the user experience.

[0042] It can be understood that, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the pulsed strong light sterilization device 300 includes a circuit board 310. The energy storage module 320 and the discharge module can specifically be circuit elements, and both the energy storage module 320 and the discharge module are arranged on the circuit board 310. The energy storage module 320 can be understood as a module for providing electrical energy to the pulsed light source 330. The discharge module quickly releases the electrical energy of the energy storage module 320 to the pulsed light source 330, enabling the pulsed light source 330 to emit pulsed strong light in a short time. Specifically, the energy storage module 320 is mainly used to provide electrical energy to the pulsed light source 330. The energy storage module 320 can be set as a capacitor. After the capacitor is connected to the circuit, it can store charges, thereby realizing the function of storing electrical energy. The capacitance value of the capacitor determines the ability of the capacitor to store charges. The capacitor can preferably be a high-voltage and large-capacitance aluminum electrolytic capacitor, which has a relatively large capacitance value and a low cost. In some embodiments, the energy storage module 320 can also be set as an inductor. The inductor can be a coil. When the inductor is connected to the circuit and there is a current passing through the inductor, the inductor will generate an induced electromotive force, thereby realizing the provision of electrical energy. In some embodiments, the cleaning device 1000 includes a power supply device. The power supply device can supply power to the cleaning assembly 200 and the pulsed strong light sterilization device 300 of the cleaning device 1000. The power supply device can be a battery or can be directly powered by connecting an electric plug to an electric socket.

[0043] It can be understood that, in some embodiments, the pulsed light source 330 can be a gas discharge lamp. Specifically, the pulsed light source 330 can be an inert gas lamp. Or, without being limited to inert gases, other gases can also be used as the excitation medium. Or, the pulsed light source 330 can also be other lamps using liquids or solids as the excitation medium, such as laser lamps, etc.

[0044] It should be noted that the inert gas lamp emits pulsed intense light by utilizing the luminous discharge effect of plasma. The inside of the inert gas lamp is filled with inert gas, and the inert gas can be gases such as neon, argon, krypton, xenon, etc. Usually, xenon is selected. The two ends and the tube wall of the inert gas lamp have electrodes. When the discharge module applies a high-voltage trigger signal to the electrodes, the inert gas inside the inert gas lamp is ionized to a low-resistance state, and a large number of inert gas atoms are excited and ionized, turning the inert gas atoms into plasma and radiating pulsed intense light. It should be noted that the electrodes at both ends of the inert gas lamp are connected to the energy storage module 320 to generate arc light and transmit the electric energy required for light emission. After meeting the above conditions, the discharge module can cause the inert gas lamp to quickly release the electric energy in the energy storage module 320, so that the inert gas lamp emits pulsed intense light.

[0045] It can be understood that, in some embodiments, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 as shown, the light outlet 110 and the cleaning component 200 are arranged at the bottom of the housing 100. The light outlet 110 and the cleaning component 200 are relatively close to each other. The light outlet 110 and the cleaning component 200 are arranged at intervals along the advancing direction of the cleaning device 1000. The advancing direction of the cleaning device 1000 can be the Figure 1 front-back direction in

[0046] In actual use, usually the cleaning device 1000 is placed on the object to be cleaned. The object to be cleaned is generally located below the cleaning device 1000. Under the action of the gravity of the cleaning device 1000, the cleaning component 200 can press against the surface of the object to be cleaned. At the same time, the light outlet 110 is also directly facing the surface of the object to be cleaned, and the object to be cleaned can be cleaned and sterilized simultaneously, improving the user experience. Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments, the cleaning device 1000 further includes a protection device 400, and the protection device 400 can sense the distance between the bottom of the housing 100 and the object to be cleaned. The protection device 400 can cause the pulsed light source 330 to turn off when the cleaning device 1000 is separated from the object to be cleaned. It can also be understood that it is determined whether the user has a cleaning requirement according to the distance between the bottom of the housing 100 and the object to be cleaned, so as to adaptively control the pulsed light source 330 to turn on or off.

[0047] Specifically, a preset distance can be preset according to the actual situation. When the distance between the bottom of the housing 100 and the object to be cleaned is greater than the preset distance, the pulsed light source 330 switches to the off state. When the distance between the bottom of the housing 100 and the object to be cleaned is less than the preset distance, the pulsed light source 330 can switch to the on state.

[0048] It needs to be explained first that with reference to Figure 8 As shown, the cleaning device 1000 is provided with a power button 132. After the user presses the power button 132, the pulsed intense light sterilization device 300 can be switched between the on state and the off state. When the pulsed intense light sterilization device 300 is in the off state, the entire pulsed intense light sterilization device 300 is disconnected from the power supply. It can also be understood that the circuit board 310 is disconnected from the power supply, and components such as the energy storage module 320, the discharge module, and the pulsed light source 330 are not powered on and are in a non-operating state. When the pulsed intense light sterilization device 300 is in the on state, the energy storage module 320 and the discharge module therein are both working, and the pulsed light source 330 can be switched between the off state and the on state. That is to say, only when the pulsed intense light sterilization device 300 is in the on state can the pulsed light source 330 be turned on. After the pulsed intense light sterilization device 300 is turned on, whether the pulsed light source 330 is in the on state depends on the distance between the bottom of the housing 100 sensed by the above-mentioned protection device 400 and the object to be cleaned.

[0049] It should be noted that when the distance between the bottom of the housing 100 and the object to be cleaned is greater than the preset distance, it means that the cleaning device 1000 is far from the object to be cleaned. At this time, it can be judged that the user does not have a cleaning requirement, and the pulsed light source 330 can be controlled to turn off, ensuring low power consumption of the product and avoiding the pulsed intense light of the pulsed light source 330 from directly irradiating the human body, which can play a protective role for the user. Or, it can also be understood that when the cleaning device 1000 is far from the object to be cleaned, the pulsed light source 330 will automatically turn off. And, in this case, when the pulsed intense light sterilization device 300 is in the off state, even if the user presses the power button 132 to manually turn on the pulsed intense light sterilization device 300, the pulsed light source 330 still remains in the off state, avoiding the pulsed light source 330 from directly turning on after the user turns on the pulsed intense light sterilization device 300, providing more comprehensive protection.

[0050] It should be noted that when the distance between the bottom of the housing 100 and the object to be cleaned is less than a preset distance, it indicates that the cleaning device 1000 is close to the object to be cleaned. At this time, it can be judged that the user may have a cleaning need. And in the initial state, the pulsed intense light sterilization device 300 is in the off state. When the user manually turns on the pulsed intense light sterilization device 300, the pulsed light source 330 will automatically start. After the pulsed light source 330 is turned on, it will emit pulsed intense light to sterilize and remove mites from the object to be cleaned, without interfering with the normal use of the product by the user. And in this case, when the user manually turns off the pulsed intense light sterilization device 300 and then turns it on again, the pulsed light source 330 will still automatically start to ensure that the user can use the product normally.

[0051] For the above embodiments, there can be various means to control the automatic opening and closing of the pulsed light source 330. For example, when the pulsed intense light sterilization device 300 is turned on, the circuit board 310 is powered on. The control module on the circuit board 310 can obtain the signal of the protection device 400. When the distance between the bottom of the housing 100 and the object to be cleaned is greater than the preset distance, the protection device 400 sends a closing signal to the control module, and then the control module controls the pulsed light source 330 to turn off, reducing the power consumption of the product and avoiding direct irradiation of pulsed intense light on the human body. When the distance between the bottom of the housing 100 and the object to be cleaned is less than the preset distance, the protection device 400 sends an opening signal to the control module, and then the control module controls the pulsed light source 330 to turn on, and the pulsed light source 330 emits pulsed intense light to achieve the normal sterilization and mite removal function.

[0052] In some embodiments, the protection device 400 can be set as a proximity sensor, such as an infrared proximity sensor or an optoelectronic sensor, etc. The proximity sensor, the light outlet 110 and the cleaning component 200 are located on the same side of the housing 100. The proximity sensor can be located at the bottom of the housing 100. When the light outlet 110 approaches the object to be cleaned, the proximity sensor can be triggered to sense the distance between the bottom of the housing 100 and the object to be cleaned.

[0053] It can be understood that in some embodiments, the protection device 400 can be set as a travel switch, specifically a bump type or a roller type travel switch. The contact of the travel switch can be in contact with the object to be cleaned, and the travel switch can detect the travel of the contact, so as to sense the distance between the bottom of the housing 100 and the object to be cleaned.

[0054] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 5As shown, the protection device 400 includes a trigger 410 and a trigger switch 420. The trigger switch 420 is provided with a contact piece 421. The trigger 410 is telescopically arranged in the housing 100 and can abut against the object to be cleaned. It should be noted that if the trigger 410 contacts the contact piece 421 of the trigger switch 420, the pulsed light source 330 will switch to the off state. If the trigger 410 does not contact the contact piece 421 of the trigger switch 420, the pulsed light source 330 can be turned on. Refer to Figure 5 , when the trigger 410 contacts the object to be cleaned, the trigger 410 is in the retracted position and the trigger 410 does not contact the contact piece 421 of the trigger switch 420. Refer to Figure 6 , when the trigger 410 disengages from the object to be cleaned, the trigger 410 is in the extended position and the trigger 410 contacts the contact piece 421. It should be noted that in the natural state, the trigger 410 is in the extended position and the trigger 410 contacts the contact piece 421 to ensure that the pulsed light source 330 is in the off state.

[0055] Specifically, when the cleaning device 1000 is placed on the object to be cleaned, it can also be understood that the distance between the bottom of the housing 100 and the object to be cleaned is less than a preset distance. At this time, the user may have a cleaning need. The trigger 410 contacts the object to be cleaned. Due to the gravity of the cleaning device 1000, the trigger 410 is pressed and retracts into the housing 100, so that the trigger 410 is in the retracted position and the trigger 410 disengages from the contact piece 421 and does not contact the contact piece 421. At this time, the pulsed light source 330 can be turned on to meet the user's needs for sterilization and mite removal. When the cleaning device 1000 disengages from the object to be cleaned, it can also be understood that the distance between the bottom of the housing 100 and the object to be cleaned is greater than the preset distance. At this time, the user does not have a cleaning need. The trigger 410 disengages from the object to be cleaned, so that the trigger 410 is in the extended position and the trigger 410 abuts against the contact piece 421 to turn off the pulsed light source 330.

[0056] It can be understood that in some embodiments, the trigger switch 420 can be set as a microswitch. The distance between the fixed contact of the trigger switch 420 and the moving contact of the contact piece 421 is small and relatively sensitive. The trigger 410 can drive the moving contact of the contact piece 421 to contact the fixed contact, and when the fixed contact contacts the moving contact, the trigger switch 420 can be triggered.

[0057] It should be noted that the protection device 400 can also automatically turn off the pulsed light source 330 by short-circuiting the pulsed light source 330. For example, the pulsed light source 330 is connected to a circuit loop, and the circuit loop further includes a short-circuit branch. The short-circuit branch is connected in parallel with the pulsed light source 330. The trigger switch 420 can be a circuit switch, and the trigger switch 420 is connected in series to the above-mentioned short-circuit branch. The trigger switch 420 is used to control whether the short-circuit branch is conducting, so as to control whether the pulsed light source 330 is short-circuited by the short-circuit branch. For example, when the distance between the bottom of the housing 100 and the object to be cleaned is greater than a preset distance, the trigger member 410 contacts the contact piece 421, which will trigger the trigger switch 420 to conduct the short-circuit branch. At this time, the short-circuit branch is equivalent to a wire, so that the pulsed light source 330 is short-circuited by the short-circuit branch, and the pulsed light source 330 cannot be powered on, realizing the automatic shutdown of the pulsed light source 330. When the distance between the bottom of the housing 100 and the object to be cleaned is less than the preset distance, the trigger member 410 does not contact the contact piece 421, and the trigger switch 420 disconnects the short-circuit branch, so that the pulsed light source 330 can work normally.

[0058] Alternatively, the trigger switch 420 can also be a commutation switch. The circuit loop includes a first branch and a second branch. The pulsed light source 330 is connected in series to the first branch. The trigger switch 420 can conduct the first branch or the second branch, so that one of the first branch and the second branch is connected to the circuit loop. The second branch can be a short-circuit branch. For example, when the distance between the bottom of the housing 100 and the object to be cleaned is greater than a preset distance, the trigger member 410 contacts the contact piece 421, so that the trigger switch 420 conducts the second branch, so that the second branch is connected to the circuit loop, and the first branch is disconnected from the circuit loop, and the pulsed light source 330 cannot be powered on, realizing the shutdown of the pulsed light source 330. When the distance between the bottom of the housing 100 and the object to be cleaned is less than the preset distance, the trigger member 410 does not contact the contact piece 421, so that the trigger switch 420 conducts the first branch, so that the first branch is connected to the circuit loop, and the second branch is disconnected from the circuit loop, ensuring that the pulsed light source 330 can work normally.

[0059] In some embodiments, the cleaning device 1000 includes at least two sets of protection devices 400. The pulsed light source 330 can be turned on only when the two trigger members 410 are both separated from the contact piece 421. Refer to Figure 4As shown in the figure, taking the cleaning device 1000 including two groups of protection devices 400 as an example, for the trigger members 410 of each of the two groups of protection devices 400, the two trigger members 410 can be arranged one on the left and one on the right at the bottom of the housing 100, so that there is a certain distance between the two trigger members 410. When one of the trigger members 410 is in contact with the object to be cleaned and in the retracted position, and the other trigger member 410 is disengaged from the object to be cleaned and in the extended position, it indicates that the cleaning device 1000 is not fully in contact with the object to be cleaned, and there may be a situation of accidental touch. It can be judged that the user does not have the need for cleaning. At this time, the pulsed light source 330 can be kept in the off state, which can improve the protection effect on the user and provide more comprehensive protection.

[0060] When both trigger members 410 are in contact with the object to be cleaned and in the retracted position, it indicates that the cleaning device 1000 is fully in contact with the object to be cleaned. It can be judged that the user has the need for cleaning. At this time, the pulsed light source 330 can be switched to the on state to ensure that the pulsed light source 330 can normally sterilize and remove mites. When both trigger members 410 are disengaged from the object to be cleaned and in the extended position, it indicates that the cleaning device 1000 is completely separated from the object to be cleaned. It can be judged that the user does not have the need for cleaning. At this time, the pulsed light source 330 can be kept in the off state to improve the protection effect on the user.

[0061] In some embodiments, it can also be that the pulsed light source 330 can be turned on only when all the trigger members 410 are disengaged from the contact piece 421. In this case, it indicates that all the trigger members 410 are in contact with the object to be cleaned and in the retracted position. It can be judged that the user has the need for cleaning. Even if one trigger member 410 is not in the retracted position, the user cannot turn on the pulsed light source 330. This embodiment is relatively safe and can reduce the probability of the user accidentally touching the trigger member 410 and starting the pulsed light source 330 to ensure the safety of the user.

[0062] Refer to Figure 6 As shown in the figure, it should be noted that the trigger member 410 is provided at the bottom of the housing 100. In the natural state, the trigger member 410 is in the extended position, and at least part of the structure of the trigger member 410 extends outside the housing 100. When the trigger member 410 is in contact with the object to be cleaned, due to the gravity of the cleaning device 1000, the trigger member 410 will retract into the housing 100, so that the trigger member 410 is in the retracted position. If you want the trigger member 410 to be reset to the extended position, you can pick up the cleaning device 1000 vertically and make the trigger member 410 face down. Under the action of gravity, the trigger member 410 will gradually descend, so that the trigger member 410 is reset to the extended position.

[0063] In order to make the trigger member 410 automatically reset, refer to Figure 5As shown, in some embodiments, the protection device 400 further includes a reset member 430. The reset member 430 connects the housing 100 and the trigger member 410, and the reset member 430 can urge the trigger member 410 to extend out of the housing 100. Specifically, the reset member 430 can be an elastic member, such as a spring or a shrapnel, etc. One end of the reset member 430 abuts against the trigger member 410, and the other end of the trigger member 410 abuts against the housing 100.

[0064] When the trigger member 410 is in contact with the object to be cleaned and in the contracted position, the trigger member 410 will compress the reset member 430. At this time, if the trigger member 410 disengages from the object to be cleaned, the elastic force of the reset member 430 can cause the trigger member 410 to reset, and the trigger member 410 can return to the extended position. When the cleaning device 1000 cleans the object to be cleaned in any direction, after picking up the cleaning device 1000, the trigger member 410 can be automatically reset, which can improve the user experience. In addition, when the trigger member 410 is in the extended position after disengaging from the object to be cleaned, the reset member 430 will also keep abutting against the trigger member 410, so that the trigger member 410 remains in the extended position. The advantage of this arrangement is that sometimes the cleaning device 1000 may be in an inverted state, causing the trigger member 410 to face upward. At this time, with the reset member 430 supporting the trigger member 410, the trigger member 410 will not retract into the housing 100 under the action of gravity, resulting in accidental contact with the contact piece 421 of the trigger switch 420, which can play a protective role.

[0065] Referring to Figure 5 and Figure 7As shown, in some embodiments, a mounting groove 140 that is recessed upward is formed at the bottom of the housing 100. The opening of the mounting groove 140 faces downward. The mounting groove 140 is mainly used to mount the reset member 430 and the trigger member 410. At least part of the structure of the trigger member 410 is located within the mounting groove 140, which can make the volume of the structure of the trigger member 410 extending out of the mounting groove 140 small and will not hinder the cleaning of the object to be cleaned. At least part of the structure of the trigger member 410 penetrates the inner wall of the mounting groove 140, so that the trigger member 410 can telescopically move in the up and down direction. The reset member 430 is located within the mounting groove 140. Specifically, the reset member 430 is configured as an elastic structure, so that the reset member 430 has a certain elasticity and can provide a certain elastic force to the bracket 411. The upper end of the reset member 430 abuts against the inner wall of the mounting groove 140, and the lower end of the reset member 430 is connected to the trigger member 410. When the trigger member 410 moves up and down, the reset member 430 will be compressed. Specifically, when the trigger member 410 disengages from the object to be cleaned, it can be understood that the cleaning device 1000 disengages from the object to be cleaned. At this time, the trigger member 410 is subjected to the elastic force of the reset member 430, and the trigger member 410 is pushed out to the extended position, that is, the trigger member 410 further extends out of the mounting groove 140. Moreover, part of the structure of the trigger member 410 is located outside the opening of the mounting groove 140, which can facilitate observing whether the trigger member 410 is in the extended position and facilitate judging the state of the trigger member 410.

[0066] Referring to Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the trigger member 410 includes a bracket 411 and a roller 412. The bracket 411 is mainly used to mount the roller 412 and contact the trigger switch 420. The roller 412 is rotatably connected to the bracket 411. The roller 412 can abut against the object to be cleaned, and the bracket 411 can contact the contact piece 421 of the trigger switch 420. It should be noted that during cleaning, the roller 412 will abut against the object to be cleaned. When the user drags the cleaning device 1000, the roller 412 can freely roll along the surface of the object to be cleaned, which can reduce the wear of the object to be cleaned on the trigger member 410.

[0067] Referring to Figure 5As shown, on the basis of the above embodiments, the bracket 411 includes a mounting portion 4111, a connecting portion 4112, and a triggering portion 4114. The bracket 411 has a generally rod-shaped structure. The mounting portion 4111, the connecting portion 4112, and the triggering portion 4114 can be connected as an integral structure or can be separate components respectively. The mounting portion 4111 is mainly used for mounting the roller 412, the connecting portion 4112 mainly serves as a connection function, and the triggering portion 4114 is mainly used to contact the trigger switch 420. The mounting portion 4111 and the triggering portion 4114 are respectively connected to both ends of the connecting portion 4112. Specifically, the triggering portion 4114, the mounting portion 4111, and the connecting portion 4112 are arranged in sequence from top to bottom. The connecting portion 4112 penetrates the inner wall of the mounting groove 140. The upper part structure of the connecting portion 4112 is located inside the housing 100, and the lower part structure of the connecting portion 4112 is located inside the mounting groove 140, enabling the bracket 411 to move in the up and down direction. The triggering portion 4114 is located inside the housing 100, and the trigger switch 420 is also located inside the housing 100. When the bracket 411 moves downward, the triggering portion 4114 can contact the trigger switch 420. The mounting portion 4111 is located inside the mounting groove 140, and the roller 412 is rotatably connected to the mounting portion 4111. The roller 412 is mainly used to abut against the object to be cleaned. Specifically, the connecting portion 4112 is further provided with a receiving position 4113. One end of the reset member 430 is connected to the receiving position 4113, and the other end is connected to the housing 100. The receiving position 4113 is mainly used to cooperate with the reset member 430.

[0068] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 5 As shown, the connecting portion 4112 and the triggering portion 4114 are two independent parts. The connecting portion 4112 and the triggering portion 4114 are detachably connected. Specifically, it can be achieved by a snap structure for snap connection, or can be connected by fasteners such as screws and rivets. The mounting portion 4111 and the connecting portion 4112 are an integral structure. When installing, the connecting portion 4112 can be directly inserted into the housing 100, which is convenient for installation and disassembly.

[0069] Referring to Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the reset member 430 is configured as a spring, and the receiving position 4113 is constructed as an annular groove. The spring extends into the annular groove, and the lower end of the spring abuts against the bottom wall of the annular groove, and the upper end of the spring abuts against the housing 100. The annular groove plays a limiting role on the spring, which can prevent the spring from detaching from the bracket 411. In some other embodiments, the receiving position 4113 can be constructed as a card slot or a mounting hole, and one end of the spring extends into the card slot or the mounting hole, thereby realizing snap-fixing the spring and improving the limiting effect on the spring. In some other embodiments, the reset member 430 can also be configured as a spring sheet. One end of the spring sheet cooperates with the receiving position 4113. The receiving position 4113 can also be constructed as structures such as an annular groove, a card slot, or a mounting hole. The spring sheet can cooperate with the receiving position 4113 by abutting or snap connection.

[0070] Referring to Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, a lamp cover 120 is provided at the light outlet 110. It should be noted that the pulsed intense light emitted by the pulsed light source 330 passes through the lamp cover 120 and then exits the housing 100, avoiding direct irradiation of the pulsed intense light on the human body, which can play a certain protective role. In some embodiments, the material of the lamp cover 120 can be acrylic, resin, PVC or other materials. The material of the lamp cover 120 is preferably quartz glass. The light transmittance of quartz glass is relatively high, and the light transmittance for visible light, infrared rays, and ultraviolet rays is greater than 90%. After the pulsed intense light passes through the lamp cover 120, the energy loss is less, and a good sterilization and mite removal effect can still be ensured. In addition, quartz glass has high heat resistance and can withstand the irradiation of pulsed intense light for a long time, improving the durability of the product. Moreover, quartz glass has good electrical insulation performance and can isolate current to avoid electric leakage. In some embodiments, not limited to Figure 2 the structure in, the lamp cover 120 can also be in the shape of a ring, U-shaped, concave-shaped, etc. In some embodiments, a condenser is provided at the light outlet 110. The reflectivity of the condenser is relatively high, which can play a role in condensing light, thereby enhancing the intensity of the pulsed intense light and enhancing the sterilization effect.

[0071] Referring to Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the cleaning device 1000 further includes a lamp holder 150. The lamp holder 150 is mainly used to install the pulsed light source 330 and provide protection for the pulsed light source 330. Specifically, the lamp holder 150 is located inside the housing 100. The lamp holder 150 is located above the light outlet 110 of the housing 100. A lamp cover 120 is arranged at the light outlet 110 of the housing 100, and the lamp cover 120 is also located below the lamp holder 150. The pulsed light source 330 is arranged inside the lamp holder 150 and above the lamp cover 120. The lower end of the lamp holder 150 is open to allow the light of the pulsed light source 330 to shine downward. Referring to Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the cleaning device 1000 further includes a seal 160. The seal 160 is located below the lamp holder 150, and the lamp cover 120 is installed inside the seal 160. It can be understood that the seal 160 is sandwiched between the lamp holder 150 and the housing 100. The seal 160 supports the lamp holder 150. The lamp holder 150, the seal 160, and the lamp cover 120 enclose a cavity 170. The cavity 170 is relatively airtight, and the pulsed light source 330 is located inside the cavity 170. Specifically, the seal 160 can be configured as an annular structure. The seal 160 surrounds the periphery of the lamp cover 120, and the seal 160 does not block the light of the pulsed light source 330 from exiting the light outlet 110. A groove 162 is provided on the inner peripheral edge of the seal 160. The groove 162 can be understood as being in an annular structure. The outer peripheral edge of the lamp cover 120 is inserted into the groove 162, thereby fixing the lamp cover 120 and keeping the lamp cover 120 in a horizontal state.

[0072] In this embodiment, by arranging the structures of the lamp holder 150, the lamp cover 120, and the seal 160, the pulsed light source 330 can be surrounded, such that the pulsed light source 330 is located within the enclosed cavity 170, which can play a sealing role. It is difficult for external dust to enter the cavity 170, preventing foreign matters such as dust from adhering to the pulsed light source 330 and affecting the mite and bacteria removal effect and service life. At the same time, since the lamp cover 120 is installed within the seal 160 and the lamp cover 120 is surrounded by the seal 160, the seal 160 can separate the lamp cover 120 from other components, avoiding collisions between the lamp cover 120 and other components and playing a protective role for the lamp cover 120.

[0073] In some embodiments, the seal 160 can be configured as a soft glue, such as a soft material like rubber or silica gel. The sealing effect is relatively good. At the same time, the seal 160 can have a certain elasticity and a certain buffering capacity. When the housing 100 is impacted or collided, for example, when the cleaning device 1000 accidentally falls to the ground, the seal 160 can relieve the impact force on the lamp cover 120, avoiding the lamp cover 120 from being shattered by the impact and enhancing the protective effect.

[0074] Refer to Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the lower end surface of the lamp holder 150 is in abutting fit with the upper end surface of the seal 160 to achieve sealing. A first hollow portion 151 is formed on the lower end surface of the lamp holder 150. The first hollow portion 151 can be understood as being formed by removing a part of the material at the lower end surface of the lamp holder 150. The first hollow portion 151 can be understood as a groove structure. In this embodiment, by arranging the first hollow portion 151 at the mating surface of the lamp holder 150 and the seal 160, the deformation ability of the lamp holder 150 can be increased, thereby increasing the impact and vibration resistance of the lamp holder 150 and preventing the lamp cover 120 from being broken due to impact or vibration.

[0075] In some embodiments, the above-mentioned first hollow portion 151 can be constructed as an annular structure. The first hollow portion 151 extends along the circumference of the seal 160 or the periphery of the light outlet 110, and the distribution is relatively uniform, improving the deformation ability of the lamp holder 150.

[0076] Refer to Figure 3As shown, in some embodiments, the lower end surface of the seal 160 abuts and cooperates with the inner wall of the housing 100. The lower end surface of the seal 160 is provided with a second hollow portion 161, which can be understood as being formed by removing some materials at the lower end surface of the seal 160. The second hollow portion 161 can be understood as a groove structure. The second hollow portion 161 can be configured as an annular structure and extends along the circumference of the light outlet 110, with a relatively uniform distribution. In this embodiment, by arranging the second hollow portion 161 at the mating surface of the seal 160 and the housing 100, the second hollow portion 161 can increase the deformation ability of the seal 160, thereby increasing the anti-impact and anti-vibration abilities and preventing the lamp cover 120 from cracking caused by impact or vibration.

[0077] In the above embodiments, the structure of the first hollow portion 151 and the second hollow portion 161 can be arranged simultaneously to improve the anti-impact and anti-vibration abilities, or the first hollow portion 151 or the second hollow portion 161 can be provided separately, which is not limited herein.

[0078] Refer to Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, the cleaning device 1000 includes two groups of protection devices 400. The lamp cover 120 is located between the two rollers 412, and the position layout is relatively reasonable, which can make full use of the space. When both rollers 412 are pressed and retracted by the object to be cleaned, the object to be cleaned is just facing the lamp cover 120. At this time, the pulsed strong light can be emitted from the lamp cover 120, and the pulsed strong light is directly incident on the object to be cleaned to achieve sterilization and mite removal.

[0079] In some embodiments, the cleaning device 1000 further includes an adjustment module for adjusting at least one of the illumination intensity and the irradiation frequency of the pulsed light source 330. The illumination intensity and the irradiation frequency can be adjusted correspondingly according to the type of the object to be cleaned. For example, for different types of items such as clothes, quilts, and pillows, or for different materials of the object to be cleaned, such as different materials like polyester, nylon, or cotton, a relatively optimal illumination intensity and irradiation frequency can be set respectively, which can improve the sterilization and mite removal effect. It should be noted that the above adjustment module can be built into the control module of the circuit board 310.

[0080] Refer to Figure 8As shown, in some embodiments, the adjustment module includes an adjustment button 131. The adjustment button 131 can be electrically connected to the above-mentioned circuit board 310. Multiple different operation modes can be divided according to the actual application scenarios. One operation mode corresponds to one application scenario. In each different application scenario, the type or material of the object to be cleaned may be different. The parameters of the irradiation intensity and irradiation frequency of the pulsed light source 330 are preset for each operation mode, so that each operation mode is optimized for a corresponding application scenario. Then, the user only needs to press the adjustment button 131 to enable the pulsed intense light sterilization device 300 to switch between different operation modes, which can provide the best user experience. Specifically, each time the adjustment button 131 is pressed, the control logic in the control module of the circuit board 310 changes, so that the pulsed intense light sterilization device 300 operates in different operation modes.

[0081] In some embodiments, the adjustment button 131 can be provided on the housing 100. The adjustment button 131 can be located at the top or side of the housing 100, which can facilitate the user to quickly observe the adjustment button 131.

[0082] Refer to Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments, the housing 100 includes a handle portion 130. The handle portion 130 is located at the top of the housing 100, and the adjustment button 131 is provided on the handle portion 130. When in use, the user needs to hold the handle portion 130 by hand and reciprocally drag the cleaning device 1000, so that the cleaning assembly 200 can clean the object to be cleaned. At this time, since the adjustment button 131 is located at the handle portion 130, the user can free a finger to press the adjustment button 131, so that the pulsed light source 330 switches to different operation modes. The adjustment button 131 can be pressed with one hand operation. Compared with being provided at other positions of the housing 100, the operation in this embodiment is more comfortable and more in line with the ergonomic design.

[0083] In some embodiments, the pulsed intense light sterilization device 300 can be powered by alternating current or direct current. When the pulsed intense light sterilization device 300 is powered by direct current, a battery can also be built into the cleaning device 1000. The cleaning device 1000 does not need to be connected to an electrical socket for a long time, which can improve the portability of the product.

[0084] It can be understood that some embodiments of the present utility model also provide a mite remover, which includes the cleaning device 1000 of the above embodiments. It can be understood that the cleaning device 1000 is a part of the mite remover, enabling the mite remover to have cleaning function and the function of sterilizing and removing mites. Since the pulsed intense light sterilization device 300 can generate pulsed intense light, the sterilizing and mite-removing effect of the mite remover can be improved. In some embodiments, the mite remover may include a blower and a dust cup assembly. The blower may be disposed in the housing 100. An air suction port communicating with the dust cup assembly is provided at the bottom of the housing 100. The blower can generate negative pressure at the air suction port, so that dust, hair and other garbage of the object to be cleaned enter the dust cup assembly from the air suction port, realizing the dust suction function. The dust cup assembly is detachably arranged, and the garbage in the dust cup assembly can be cleaned regularly. The dust cup assembly includes a filter cartridge and a dust cup housing. The filter cartridge is located in the dust cup housing. After the external air flow enters the dust cup housing from the air suction port, it first passes through the filter cartridge and then through the blower. The filter cartridge can filter the garbage in the air flow. A handle is also provided at the top of the housing 100. The user can hold the handle to lift the entire mite remover, and the portability is relatively good.

[0085] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those of ordinary skill in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the purpose of the present utility model.
