Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cleaning appliances, and particularly relates to a mop bucket. Background Art
[0002] Taking a mop bucket commonly used in daily life as an example, a drain opening is provided at a position close to the bottom of the mop bucket. The drain opening is usually blocked by a rubber plug. When the user needs to drain the sewage in the mop bucket, the user needs to pull out the rubber plug. After the sewage is drained, the rubber plug is reinserted into the drain opening. Regarding the above mop bucket, the user cannot reasonably store the rubber plug after pulling it out, and the user needs to wait until the sewage is completely drained. If the user goes to handle other housework midway, the rubber plug may be lost, causing an obstacle when the mop bucket is used again.
[0003] Problems such as the plug used to block the drain opening being easily lost when the user performs the drainage operation of the mop bucket bring a lot of inconvenience to the user's drainage operation of the mop bucket and affect the user experience. Summary of the Utility Model

[0008] A flexible member, one end connected to the fixing member and the other end connected to the operating member;
[0009] When the operating member rotates, it is adapted to drive the flexible member to be twisted and twisted back to its original state. When the flexible member is in a twisted state, it closes the water passing opening to block the drain opening. When the flexible member is in a reset state, it opens the water passing opening to open the drain opening.
[0010] Beneficial effects: The utility model provides a mop bucket. The water passing port of the fixing part in the drainage structure is communicated with the drainage port of the bucket body, so as to discharge the sewage in the bucket body through the drainage port and the water passing port when needed; by setting an operating part and connecting a flexible part to the fixing part and the operating part, the relative rotation of the operating part with respect to the fixing part is used to cause the flexible part to be twisted and the twist to be reset. Thus, when the flexible part is twisted, they gather together to close the drainage port, preventing the water in the bucket body from flowing out. When the flexible part is reset from the twist, it fully unfolds to open the drainage port, thereby discharging the sewage in the bucket body. Moreover, the operating part is rotatably connected to the fixing part and forms an integral structure with the flexible part. The drainage operation is convenient and fast without using a plug, solving the problem that the plug is easily lost when the user drains the mop bucket at present, and improving the user experience.

[0059] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0060] The following will be combined with Figures 1 - 5 , to describe the embodiments of the present utility model.
[0061] According to the embodiments of the present utility model, a mop bucket is provided. As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 , it includes a bucket body provided with a drain outlet, and the mop bucket further includes a drainage structure disposed at the drain outlet.
[0062] Specifically, the drain outlet is usually disposed on the side wall of the bucket body close to the bottom plate to facilitate draining the sewage in the bucket body; the drainage structure is disposed at the drain outlet for closing or opening the drain outlet.
[0063] The drainage structure includes: a fixing member 1, an operating member 2, and a flexible member 3.
[0064] The fixing member 1 is connected to the bucket body. The fixing member 1 is provided with a water passing port 101, and the water passing port 101 is communicated with the drain outlet; the operating member 2 rotates relative to the fixing member 1 and is connected to the outer peripheral side of the fixing member 1; one end of the flexible member 3 is connected to the fixing member 1, and the other end is connected to the operating member 2; when the operating member 2 rotates, it is adapted to drive the flexible member 3 to be twisted and restored. When the flexible member 3 is in a twisted state, it closes the water passing port 101 to close the drain outlet, and when the flexible member 3 is in a restored state, it opens the water passing port 101 to open the drain outlet.
[0065] In the above embodiments, the water passing port 101 of the fixing member 1 in the drainage structure is communicated with the drainage port of the barrel body, so as to facilitate discharging the sewage in the barrel body through the drainage port and the water passing port 101 when needed; by providing the operating member 2 and connecting the flexible member 3 between the fixing member 1 and the operating member 2, the rotation of the operating member 2 relative to the fixing member 1 is used to cause the flexible member 3 to be distorted and restored from distortion. Thus, when the flexible member 3 is distorted, they gather together to close the drainage port, preventing the water in the barrel body from flowing out. When the flexible member 3 is restored from distortion, it fully unfolds to open the drainage port, thereby discharging the sewage in the barrel body. Moreover, the operating member 2 is rotatably connected to the fixing member 1 and forms an integral structure with the flexible member 3. The drainage operation is convenient and fast without using a plug, solving the problem that the plug is easily lost when the user drains the mop bucket at present, and improving the user experience.
[0066] Specifically, the fixing member 1 is connected to the barrel body. While diverting water to the drainage port of the barrel body, it also provides an installation position for the operating member 2 and the flexible member 3; the fixing member 1 itself can be integrally constructed as a part of the barrel body structure, or a split structure connected to the barrel body can be adopted, as long as it can serve as the installation basis for the operating member 2 and the flexible member 3 and can communicate with the drainage port of the barrel body.
[0067] Further, in this embodiment, there is no limitation on the specific structural form of the rotational connection between the operating member 2 and the fixing member 1. As an implementation manner, both the fixing member 1 and the operating member 2 are provided with flat plate shapes, and the operating member 2 is attached to the fixing member 1 and rotatably connected in a plane; as an implementation manner, both the fixing member 1 and the operating member 2 are provided with annular cylindrical shapes, and the operating member 2 is sleeved outside the fixing member 1 for rotational connection.
[0068] Further, in this embodiment, there is no limitation on the specific material of the flexible member 3, and a flexible deformable material can be used.
[0069] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 shown, as a preferred implementation manner, both the fixing member 1 and the operating member 2 are provided with annular cylindrical structures, and the operating member 2 is sleeved outside the fixing member 1 so that the operating member 2 can rotate relative to the fixing member 1.
[0070] In the above embodiments, both the fixing member 1 and the operating member 2 are provided with annular cylindrical structures, so as to facilitate the rotational cooperation through the socket connection between the fixing member 1 and the operating member 2.
[0071] Specifically, the fixing member 1 is provided with an annular cylindrical structure, and the water passing port 101 is the inner ring structure of the fixing member 1; the operating member 2 is provided with an annular cylindrical structure, the inner ring of the operating member 2 is socket-connected to the outer ring of the fixing member 1, and the outer ring of the operating member 2 is the position where the user applies the rotational force.
[0072] Further, when the flexible member 3 is in a twisted state where they are gathered together, the operating member 2 rotates to an outer position on the fixing member 1 away from the drain opening of the barrel. At this time, most of the inner structures of the flexible member 3 are in a gathered state, thereby closing the drain opening; when the flexible member 3 is in a fully expanded reset state, the operating member 2 rotates to an inner position on the fixing member 1 close to the drain opening of the barrel. At this time, the flexible member 3 is attached and flattened on the inner and outer walls of the fixing member 1, thereby opening the drain opening.
[0073] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 shown, one end of the flexible member 3 close to the fixing member 1 is sealingly connected to the inner peripheral side of the fixing member 1.
[0074] In the above embodiment, sealingly connecting one end of the flexible member 3 to the inner peripheral side of the fixing member 1 provides a stable installation position for the flexible member 3 and prevents sewage from leaking out from the connection between the flexible member 3 and the fixing member 1.
[0075] Specifically, the connection position of the flexible member 3 on the inner peripheral side of the fixing member 1 extends a certain distance into the inner side of the fixing member 1, so that the overall area of the flexible member 3 is large enough to ensure that there is enough material to undergo torsional deformation and gather together.
[0076] Further, the present embodiment does not limit the specific manner of sealingly connecting the flexible member 3 and the fixing member 1. Adhesives can be used for bonding, or an interference fit between a rigid ring and the inner wall of the fixing member 1 can be utilized to press the flexible member 3.
[0077] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 shown, the operating member 2 includes an inner ring body 201 and an outer ring body 202 that are connected to each other. One end of the flexible member 3 close to the operating member 2 is connected between the inner ring body 201 and the outer ring body 202 so that the inner ring body 201 and the outer ring body 202 clamp the flexible member 3.
[0078] In the above embodiment, by setting the operating member 2 in a split structure form, it is convenient to clamp the flexible member 3 using the gap between the inner ring body 201 and the outer ring body 202, ensuring that the flexible member 3 is stably connected to the operating member 2.
[0079] Specifically, both the inner ring body 201 and the outer ring body 202 are provided in a ring-shaped cylindrical structure and are connected by snaps or screws. Protrusions can also be provided between the gaps of the inner ring body 201 and the outer ring body 202, so as to abut against the flexible member 3 when clamping the flexible member 3, improving the connection stability between the flexible member 3 and the operating member 2.
[0080] In some embodiments, the mop bucket further includes a guiding structure disposed between the fixing member 1 and the operating member 2. The guiding structure is adapted to limit the rotation direction of the operating member 2 relative to the fixing member 1, so as to guide the rotation of the operating member 2 and drive the flexible member 3 to be twisted and restored from the twist.
[0081] In the above embodiment, by providing the guiding structure to guide the rotation of the operating member 2 relative to the fixing member 1 and limit the movement direction of the operating member 2, the stability of the user rotating the operating member 2 is improved.
[0082] Specifically, when both the fixing member 1 and the operating member 2 are provided as flat plate-shaped structures, the guiding structure is disposed on the opposite surfaces of the two flat plate-shaped structures; when both the fixing member 1 and the operating member 2 are provided as annular cylindrical shapes, the guiding structure is disposed on the adjacent inner and outer cylindrical walls of the annular cylinder.
[0083] Further, in this embodiment, the specific structural form of the guiding structure is not limited, and it may be a sliding fit assembly of a sliding groove and a slider, a sliding fit assembly of a through groove and a slider, etc.
[0084] In some embodiments, when both the fixing member 1 and the operating member 2 are provided as annular cylindrical structures, the guiding structure is disposed between the outer wall of the fixing member 1 and the inner wall of the operating member 2, and is adapted to guide the operating member 2 to rotate relative to the fixing member 1 and axially move at the same time.
[0085] In the above embodiment, by guiding the operating member 2 to rotate relative to the fixing member 1 and axially move through the guiding structure, it is convenient for the operating member 2 to drive the flexible members 3 to gather together or fully expand.
[0086] Specifically, when the flexible members 3 are in a twisted state of gathering together, the operating member 2 rotates to the outer side position on the fixing member 1 away from the drain opening of the bucket body; when the flexible members 3 are in a restored state of being fully expanded, the operating member 2 rotates to the inner side position on the fixing member 1 close to the drain opening of the bucket body. The function of the guiding structure is to guide the operating member 2 to rotate and axially move relative to the fixing member 1, and then switch the position of the operating member 2 between the outer side position on the fixing member 1 away from the drain opening of the bucket body and the inner side position on the fixing member 1 close to the drain opening of the bucket body.
[0087] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 shown, the guiding structure includes an inclined sliding groove 4 and a slider 5 cooperating with the sliding groove 4; one of the fixing member 1 and the operating member 2 is provided with the sliding groove 4, and the other is provided with the slider 5.
[0088] In the above embodiment, the rotation guiding and axial movement guiding of the operating member 2 relative to the fixing member 1 are realized by the inclined sliding groove 4 cooperating with the slider 5.
[0089] Specifically, in this embodiment, an inclined chute 4 is provided on the outer wall of the fixing member 1, and a slider 5 is provided on the inner wall of the operating member 2. The slider 5 is embedded in the chute 4 for guiding. As an alternative implementation, a slider can be provided on the outer wall of the fixing member 1, and an inclined chute can be provided on the inner wall of the operating member 2. The slider 5 is embedded in the chute 4 for guiding.
[0090] In some embodiments, the guiding structure includes an inclined through slot and a slider 5 that cooperates with the through slot; one of the fixing member 1 and the operating member 2 is provided with the slider 5, and the other is provided with the through slot.
[0091] In the above embodiments, the rotation guiding and axial movement guiding of the operating member 2 relative to the fixing member 1 are realized by the cooperation of the inclined through slot and the slider 5.
[0092] Specifically, as an implementation manner, an inclined through slot is provided on the side wall of the fixing member 1, and a slider 5 is provided on the inner wall of the operating member 2. The slider 5 is embedded in the through slot for guiding. As another implementation manner, a slider can be provided on the outer wall of the fixing member 1, and an inclined through slot can be provided on the side wall of the operating member 2. The slider 5 is embedded in the through slot for guiding.
[0093] In some embodiments, the mop bucket further includes a locking structure. When the flexible member 3 is in a twisted state or a reset state, the locking structure is adapted to restrict the rotation of the fixing member 1.
[0094] In the above embodiments, by providing the locking structure to restrict the rotation of the fixing member 1 when the flexible member 3 is in a twisted state or a reset state, the twisted state or the reset state of the flexible member 3 is maintained. Without the help of external force, it is ensured that the drain opening can be continuously closed to prevent the water in the body from flowing out, or it is ensured that the drain opening can be continuously opened to ensure smooth discharge of sewage, liberating the user's hands.
[0095] Specifically, when the user rotates the operating member 2 relative to the fixing member 1 to drive the flexible member 3 to be twisted and twisted and reset to close or open the drain opening, the rotation of the operating member 2 has an optimal position, which are respectively: when closing the drain opening, the flexible member 3 is twisted to the limit, and at this time, the closing effect of the flexible member 3 is the best; when opening the drain opening, the flexible member 3 is completely reset, and at this time, the flexible member 3 is completely flattened and does not block the outflow of sewage. When the operating member 2 rotates to the optimal position, the user can choose to continuously apply force to the operating member 2 to keep the operating member 2 in the optimal position; as a more optimal implementation manner, by providing a locking structure to restrict the operating member 2, the rotation tendency of the operating member 2 caused by the reset movement tendency of the flexible member 3 is overcome, so as to prevent the operating member 2 from rotating relative to the fixing member 1, and there is no need for the user to act on the operating member 2 for a long time, further improving the use experience.
[0096] Further, the specific structural form of the locking structure in this embodiment is not limited, and it can be a buckle, an elastic groove, etc.
[0097] In some embodiments, when a guiding structure is provided between the fixing member 1 and the operating member 2, the locking structure is disposed between the fixing member 1 and the operating member 2 and is located at the guiding starting point or the guiding ending point of the guiding structure, so that the flexible member 3 maintains a twisted state or a reset state to open or close the water passing port 101.
[0098] In the above embodiment, the locking structure is disposed at the guiding starting point or the guiding ending point of the guiding structure to ensure that the operating member 2 does not rotate relative to the fixing member 1 when running to the limit position.
[0099] Further, locking structures can also be provided at both the guiding starting point and the guiding ending point of the guiding structure.
[0100] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 shown, when the guiding structure includes an inclined chute 4 and a slider 5 cooperating with the chute 4, the locking structure is set as a straight groove 6 communicating with the chute 4, and the slider 5 is adapted to abut against the inner wall of the straight groove 6 to limit the rotation of the operating member 2 relative to the fixing member 1.
[0101] In the above embodiment, the rotation of the operating member 2 relative to the fixing member 1 is restricted by the abutting effect between the slider 5 and the inner wall of the straight groove 6, and the structure is simple and convenient for production.
[0102] Specifically, the straight groove 6 can be provided at one end of the chute 4, or straight grooves 6 can be provided at both ends of the chute 4.
[0103] In some embodiments, the barrel body is provided with a clamping point, and the locking structure includes a buckle disposed on the outer wall of the operating member 2. When the flexible member 3 is in a twisted state or a reset state, the buckle is adapted to cooperate with the clamping point to limit the rotation of the operating member 2 relative to the fixing member 1.
[0104] In the above embodiment, the rotation of the operating member 2 relative to the fixing member 1 is restricted by the clamping cooperation between the buckle on the operating member 2 and the clamping point on the barrel body, and the stability of the locking cooperation is strong.
[0105] Specifically, the clamping point on the barrel body can be set as a clamping opening on the barrel body or a clamping cooperation structure imitating the buckle, so as to realize stable clamping with the buckle on the operating member 2.
[0106] In some embodiments, the operating member 2 is further provided with a screwing portion for providing friction.
[0107] In the above embodiments, by providing a screwing portion on the operating member 2, it is convenient for the user to drive the entire operating member 2 to rotate through the screwing portion.
[0108] Specifically, the screwing portion is provided on the outer peripheral side of the operating member 2.
[0109] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 shown, the screwing portion is provided as a plurality of ribs 2021 spaced along the outer peripheral side of the operating member 2.
[0110] In the above embodiments, by spacing a plurality of ribs 2021 along the outer peripheral side of the operating member 2, the frictional force of the finger contact during screwing by the user is increased.
[0111] In some embodiments, the flexible member 3 is made of a stretchable material.
[0112] Specifically, the flexible member 3 can be a stretchable material such as rubber or polyurethane.
[0113] In some embodiments, as a preferred implementation, the flexible member 3 is formed by rubber molding.
[0114] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 shown, the flexible member 3 is in an annular cylindrical shape and is provided with a first edge 301 and a second edge 302; the first edge 301 is sealingly connected to the inner peripheral side of the fixing member 1, and the second edge 302 is sealingly connected between the inner ring body 201 and the outer ring body 202 of the operating member 2.
[0115] In the above embodiments, the flexible member 3 is integrally provided in an annular cylindrical shape, so as to facilitate reliable connection of both ends of the flexible member 3 to the fixing member 1 and the operating member 2 respectively.
[0116] In some embodiments, the fixing member 1 is detachably connected to the drain outlet or integrally formed with the drain outlet.
[0117] In the above embodiments, when the fixing member 1 of the drainage structure is detachably connected to the drain outlet of the barrel, it is convenient to replace the whole when the drainage structure is damaged after long-term use; when the fixing member 1 of the drainage structure is integrally formed with the drain outlet of the barrel, it is beneficial to reduce the production difficulty of the mop bucket and improve the production efficiency.
[0118] Specifically, in this embodiment, the fixing member 1 of the drainage structure is integrally formed with the drain outlet of the barrel.
[0119] Further, the fixing member 1 of the drainage structure and the drain outlet of the barrel can be detachably connected by threaded connection or snap connection.
