The above design is beneficial for limiting the cover plate.

[0012] The utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] 1. Through the mutual cooperation of components such as the machine body, the main board, the first mounting hole, the second mounting hole, the ultrasonic transmitter, and the ultrasonic receiver, when the garbage bin is full of garbage, the ultrasonic signal emitted by the ultrasonic transmitter sliding in the first mounting hole is blocked, thereby weakening the ultrasonic signal. When the signal transmitted to the ultrasonic receiver sliding in the second mounting hole is weakened, the situation inside the garbage bin of the pool robot can be directly detected.

[0014] 2. Through the rotational force of the rotating shaft, the components such as the connecting plate, the fixing plate, the rotating shaft, the limiting block, the hollow block, the cover plate, and the limiting block are driven to cooperate with each other, realizing the upward movement of the garbage bin arranged inside the placing plate, so that the cover plate receives a driving force. When the cover plate receives the driving force, the rotating shaft rotating on the inner side wall of the groove rotates. When the garbage bin is full, it is convenient for the staff to operate to empty the garbage inside the garbage bin.

[0015] Certainly, it is not necessary for any product implementing the utility model to achieve all the above advantages simultaneously. Description of the Drawings

[0027] The ultrasonic transmitter 8 and the ultrasonic receiver 9 are electrically connected to the main board 2. The above design is beneficial for directly detecting the condition in the garbage bin 5.

[0028] A connecting shaft 17 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the groove 18, and a cover plate 15 is fixedly connected to the circumferential surface of the connecting shaft 17. The design of the cover plate 15 is beneficial for preventing the garbage bin 5 from separating from the inside of the body 1.

[0029] A connecting plate 10 is fixedly connected to the top of the cover plate 15, a fixing plate 11 is fixedly connected to the side of the connecting plate 10, a rotating shaft 12 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the fixing plate 11, a limiting block 13 is fixedly connected to the circumferential surface of the rotating shaft 12, and a hollow block 14 is fixedly connected to the top of the body 1.
