Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of steam mops, in particular to a steam mop with a detachable steam module. Background Art
[0002] The combination of steam and a mop forms a steam mop, whose main feature is to enhance the dirt removal and sterilization capabilities of the mop. In existing products, the steam module is integrated in the mop rod or in the handgrip of the mop, which brings two major problems:
[0003] 1. The center of gravity of the steam mop is always at a high position, which easily causes fatigue in the user's hand. Moreover, once the mop falls, the steam module will be severely impacted and damaged;
[0004] 2. There is still a relatively long distance between the steam module and the mop cloth. Connecting through a rubber tube not only increases the cost and weight, but also the steam will quickly cool down during transmission and turn into condensed water. Tests have found that the steam temperature drops by more than 10°C - 30°C.
[0005] The steam mop comes with a very long power cord, which results in users not using the steam function frequently. When there are no stubborn dirt on the ground, the steam module is usually not used. Therefore, the mop after removing the steam module must be light. However, for the current steam mops on the market, either the steam function and the mop are integrated and cannot be removed, or even if the steam module is removed, the weight still exceeds 1 kilogram, and the experience is not very good.
[0006] There is still a major pain point that has not been solved for the current steam mops on the market. Their mop cloth needs to be taken off and hand-washed, and the bacteria and viruses on the mop cloth will threaten the health of users every day. This problem should be primarily emphasized and solved. Summary of the Utility Model
[0007] In view of the above problems existing in the prior art, a steam mop with a detachable steam module is provided herein, aiming to be able to conveniently disassemble the steam module and conveniently assemble different cleaning accessories according to different needs, and solve the problem of the steam module being damaged when the mop rod falls to the ground, so as to overcome at least one of the above technical defects.

[0033] In order to make the technical means, creative features, achieved purposes and functions realized by the present utility model easy to understand, the following embodiments will specifically describe the present utility model in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0034] Refer to Figures 1 to 11 As shown in, the detachable steam mop of the steam module provided in this embodiment includes a mop with a mop cloth 2 disposed at the bottom, and a handle 6 hinged to the lower end of the mop. Among them, a steam module 3 is detachably assembled on the mop, and a quick-connect interface is formed at the steam outlet end of the steam module 3 for detachably configuring cleaning accessories.
[0035] Based on the above technical solution, the detachable steam mop of the steam module 3 includes a mop, a mop cloth 2, a handle 6, a steam module 3, and a cleaning accessory. The steam module 3 is detachably assembled on the mop, and the steam outlet end of the steam module 3 has a quick-connect interface for configuring cleaning accessories, so that the steam module 3 can be conveniently disassembled and the mop can be directly used, and different cleaning accessories can be conveniently assembled according to different needs. Moreover, the steam module 3 is disposed near the mop cloth 2, which not only solves the problem of heat loss of the steam but also solves the problem that the steam module 3 is damaged when the mop rod falls to the ground. Due to the steam pipeline at the connection between the handle rod of the traditional steam mop and the mop, a bulging structure is formed, and the overall height of the mop cannot be made low. The overall height of the mop part of this solution can be easily made within 20 mm.
[0036] In a preferred implementation manner, specifically as Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown in, a receiving groove 101 for receiving at least a part of the steam module 3 is formed by recessing the upper end surface of the mop, and a fixing member 7 is disposed at a position adjacent to the receiving groove 101 on the mop, and a clamping groove is formed in the fixing member 7. One side of the steam module 3 has a clamping member 303 adapted to the clamping groove, and the clamping member 303 is detachably clamped in the clamping groove. Further, as Figure 7 As shown in, the fixing member 7 is rotatably installed on one side of the receiving groove 101, and the fixing member 7 can be rotated and received in the receiving groove 101. When the fixing member 7 is rotated to the vertical state, the clamping member 303 can be clamped into the clamping groove from top to bottom.
[0037] As a further preferred embodiment, in combination with Figure 1 and Figure 4 shown in, the steam outlet end is formed at one end in the length direction of the steam module 3. The quick-connect interface is configured as a cylindrical structure, with a steam outlet 302 formed in the middle and a limiting rib 301 on the outer edge. Further, in combination with Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown in, the cleaning accessory is a floor cleaning kit 4. The floor cleaning kit 4 is overall in an "L" shape and internally forms a steam channel 401 communicating with the steam outlet 302. A plurality of cleaning steam through holes 402 communicating with the steam channel 401 are arranged in an array at the front side position of the floor cleaning kit 4 for spraying steam onto the ground in front of the mop. That is, the long strip-shaped component of the floor cleaning kit 4 is located in the front side direction of the steam module 3. The front side direction referred to in this embodiment is the front side direction in the state of using the mop.
[0038] In specific applications, the floor cleaning kit 4 is installed in the steam module 3, and then the whole is installed on the mop. The steam function is started. The water pump pumps water from the water tank into the steam generator. The semi-dry and semi-wet steam generated enters a small container for preliminary water-vapor separation and then enters the floor cleaning kit 4 from the steam outlet 302, enters from the steam channel 401 and then is discharged from a plurality of steam outlets 302. At this time, the steam outlet 302 forms a certain angle with the ground. The steam impacts the dirt on the ground and will continue to move forward along the ground according to the wall attachment effect, preheating the ground far ahead, enhancing the steam sterilization and dirt disintegration ability. Compared with the current market situation where most steam mops spray the steam on the mop cloth 2 first and then let the mop cloth 2 contact the ground, this solution can better express the true meaning of the steam mop.
[0039] As a further preferred embodiment, in combination with Figure 10 shown in, the cleaning accessory is an ironing kit 11. The ironing kit 11 includes an ironing board 1101 and a heat-resistant sleeve 1103 that are connected and internally communicate. The heat-resistant sleeve 1103 is detachably sleeved on the quick-connect interface. A plurality of ironing steam holes 1102 are provided on the end face of the ironing board 1101 facing away from the quick-connect interface.
[0040] As a further preferred embodiment, in combination with Figure 11 shown in, the cleaning accessory is a steam brush kit 12. The steam brush kit 12 includes a connecting sleeve detachably assembled on the quick-connect interface and a brush 1201 formed at one end of the connecting sleeve facing away from the quick-connect interface. And a plurality of brush steam holes are also provided at the end of the connecting sleeve facing away from the quick-connect interface.
[0041] Specifically, the brush 1201 can be used for kitchen oil stain cleaning, glass cleaning, and wall cleaning. It mainly relies on the high temperature of the steam to increase the activity of the dirt molecules, reduce the adhesion to the substrate, and gradually peel off. Then, the peeled dirt is transferred by the brush 1201, the scraper, and the cloth.
[0042] In addition, the cleaning attachment can also be a cleaning seat for backwashing the steam module 3. The steam module 3 has a water tank 306, a water pump 307, and a steam generator 308 connected in sequence, and a steam generation channel 309 is formed in the steam generator 308. The shell of the steam module 3 is also provided with a control module 304, and the control module 304, the water pump 307, and the steam generator 308 are connected to the external power supply 305 through an external power line, or a rechargeable power supply can also be provided in the shell. It is not the main innovation of this embodiment, so it is omitted here.
[0043] In a preferred embodiment, specifically as Figures 6 to 9 As shown in , the handle 6 is movably connected with a scraping member 5, which includes a limiting sleeve 501, an arc-shaped connecting rod 502, and a frame-type scraping member 503, which are sequentially connected and sleeved on the outer periphery of the rod of the handle 6, to allow the scraping member 5 to move along the length direction of the handle 6, and the frame-type scraping member 503 also has scraping teeth 504 inside for scraping the mop 2, and when the steam module 3 is removed and the handle 6 is rotated to be flush with the length direction of the mop, the frame-type scraping member 503 can move downward to a position surrounding the mop, and the scraping teeth 504 scrape the mop 2 on the lower end surface of the mop by reciprocating the scraping member 5. There is no need to remove the mop 2 for hand washing, which prevents bacteria and viruses on the mop 2 from threatening the health of users every day.
[0044] In specific applications, when the long side of the mop is in a vertical state, the scraping part 5 installed on the handle rod can pass through the mop cover and the mop 2, and the scraping teeth 504 are tightly matched with the mop 2. The scraping teeth 504 continuously scrape the mop 2 during the up and down movement to scrape off the dirt and moisture on the mop 2. During the whole process, the skin does not come into contact with the mop 2, thereby achieving hands-free washing. The steam module 3 needs to be taken out before hands-free washing.
[0045] As a further preferred embodiment, the mop comprises an upper cover 1 and a lower cover 8 which are assembled from top to bottom, and a receiving groove 101 is formed on the upper surface of the upper cover 1, a fixing member 7 is hinged to the upper end surface of the upper cover 1, and the front and rear outer edges of the lower cover 8 are further extended outward to form a mounting edge 801 for detachably connecting the mop 2, and the two sides of the mop 2 are provided with fixing sleeves 201 which are matched with the mounting edge 801. The mop 2 can be detachably connected to the lower end of the lower cover 8 in a drawer-like manner, or the fixing sleeve 201 can be directly opened outward to disassemble the mop 2 from the lower end of the lower cover 8.
[0046] As a further preferred embodiment, the upper end surface of the upper cover 1 is hinged with a first movable part 10 that can be flipped forward and backward, and the first movable part 10 is hinged with a second movable part 9 that can rotate left and right, and the upper end of the second movable part 9 is detachably connected to the lower end of the handle 6.
[0047] It should be noted that a groove is also provided on one side of the upper end of the upper cover 1 adjacent to the receiving groove 101. The lower end of the fixing member 7 has a moving shaft 701 and is pivotally connected to the groove. However, other ways such as hinges can also be used, and it is not limited to this. At the same time, in this embodiment, the arc-shaped connecting rod 502 is a semi-tubular structure so that its inner wall can fit against the outer periphery of the rod portion of the handle 6, making it more aesthetically pleasing. An ear seat structure is formed between the first movable member 10 and the second movable member 9. However, in fact, the two movable members can also be directly configured as a universal joint structure, as long as the handle 6 can be rotated relative to the mop in multiple directions, and it is not limited to this.
[0048] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention, which are illustrative rather than restrictive to the present invention. Those skilled in the art understand that many changes, modifications, and even equivalents can be made within the spirit and scope defined by the claims of the present invention, but all of them will fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
