Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of mop installation structures, in particular to a mop lifting structure. Background Art
[0002] A robot vacuum, also known as an automatic sweeper, smart vacuum, or robot vacuum, is a type of smart home appliance that uses artificial intelligence to automatically clean floors. It typically uses a brushing and vacuuming process to collect debris into its own trash collection bin, completing the cleaning process.
[0003] A Chinese invention patent, currently published with publication number CN116671832A, discloses a sweeper with a roller-type lifting mop. In one state, the lifting mop is lowered to mop the floor, and in another state, it is raised and no longer mops. The lifting mop is driven up and down by a lifting drive assembly, which includes a slide rail mounted on a bottom housing and a slide rail drive motor. A rack is provided in the middle of the slide rail, and channels are provided on either side of the rack on the slide rail for the overlapping portion of the lifting mop to pass through and overlap. A transmission gear is mounted on the output shaft of the slide rail drive motor, which meshes with the rack.
[0004] It has the following defects:
[0005] The structure of the slide rail is complex, requiring a rack in the middle and channels on both sides. The slide rail is long, and the opening of the channels will weaken the structural strength of the slide rail. In order to ensure support for the lifting mop, the structural strength of the slide rail also needs to be enhanced, which increases the difficulty of slide rail molding.
[0006] The mop lifting structure of the existing sweeping robot is relatively complex, and its operating stability is poor, and it cannot achieve balanced and stable vertical lifting, which can prevent the mop connection structure from being damaged or malfunctioning due to unstable lifting.
[0007] There is a need for a more stable mop lifting structure that can solve the above-mentioned problems. Utility Model Content
[0008] The utility model provides a mop lifting structure, which solves the problems of the existing mop lifting structure being relatively complex and having poor stability by technically transforming the existing mop installation structure.
[0009] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is:

The drive motor, the gear set structure, the lifting screw, the lifting nut and the screw support structure are installed in the mounting shell. The output end of the drive motor is connected to the gear set structure. The outer side surface of the lifting nut is provided with a tooth surface that meshes with the gear set structure. The inner cavity of the lifting nut is threadedly connected to the lifting screw. The screw support structure is also installed at the upper end of the lifting screw. A lifting mechanism mounting sleeve is provided on the mounting shell. The lifting screw is movably installed in the lifting mechanism mounting sleeve through the screw support structure. The lower end of the lifting screw is fixedly connected to the mop.
