[0028] To make the objectives, features, and advantages of this application more readily apparent, the present application is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It is apparent that the embodiments described are only a portion of the embodiments of this application, not all of them. All other embodiments derived by persons of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments in this application without inventive effort are also within the scope of protection of this application.
[0029] Through analysis of existing technologies, the inventors discovered that as robot vacuums become increasingly popular, users are demanding higher standards for intelligent and deep cleaning performance. Due to the diversity of household environments, there's a high probability of both wet and dry waste being present. Currently, after cleaning, robots leave debris stuck to the dust bin. All commercially available robots are unable to recycle this waste. Once sucked into the machine, the base station can't properly recycle it, requiring manual intervention. Otherwise, it can mold and spoil, causing secondary contamination. How to eliminate manual intervention and achieve thorough cleaning is a pressing issue. As robot vacuums become increasingly popular, users are demanding higher standards for intelligent and deep cleaning performance. The height of intelligent robot vacuums is limited, and the efficiency of internal space utilization is increasing with advancements in intelligent technology. Improving deep cleaning capabilities within a limited energy budget presents challenges for the entire industry. Issues such as how to intelligently switch between deep cleaning and sweeping in complex environments and how to maximize internal space utilization within a given height are hindering the industry's development and progress.
[0030] The main technical problem solved by the present invention is the problem of slow and incomplete recycling. The present application achieves the technical effect of effectively and quickly recycling garbage.
[0031] To address the above technical issues, the present invention employs a technical solution: a physical slope is provided at the bottom of the drainage box, with a drainage outlet 15 positioned at the lowest point of the slope 13. A motorized lift stopper 14 is located above the drainage outlet 15. A vibrating motor is located below the slope 13. Clean water injected from the base station flushes the drainage box, and the slope 13 and the vibrating motor remove waste from the drainage box 1. For more thorough cleaning, the base station can also inject mixed hot water for even better results.
[0032] The beneficial effects of the utility model are: avoiding secondary pollution of garbage, cleaning more thoroughly, eliminating manual intervention, and at the same time, the two-in-one waste discharge box improves the utilization rate of the robot's internal space.
[0033] In the embodiments of the present application, in response to the prior art solution of "a waste box with a flat bottom and dry and wet separation", the present application provides a waste box for storing dry and wet garbage. The waste box has a physical slope 13 at the bottom, and a waste outlet 15 is provided at the lowest position of the slope 13. Above the waste outlet 15, there is an electric lifting plug 14. The technical solution of a vibration motor is provided below the slope 13, specifically: comprising a box body 1; a waste outlet 15 and a slope 13 for discharging dry and wet garbage are provided inside the box body 1; the slope 13 is provided at the bottom of the box body 1, and the waste outlet 15 is provided at the bottom end of the slope 13; an electric lifting plug 14 for sealing and draining the waste box is provided inside the box body 1; the waste outlet 15 is provided with the electric lifting plug 14; the bottom of the electric lifting plug 14 is adapted to the waste outlet 15; the electric lifting plug 14 rises and falls at the position of the waste outlet 15. The present application provides a waste box design to improve cleaning efficiency. This application improves cleaning efficiency. The bottom of the dirt box is flat and has a dry and wet separation scheme. This scheme can absorb sewage and debris into the box body, avoiding secondary pollution and manual maintenance problems; the dry and wet mixed garbage can be quickly flowed away through the inclined surface, without garbage residue, and the electric plug can be opened within one second to completely recycle the dry and wet garbage together. While recycling thoroughly, it reduces recycling costs and energy consumption. At the same time, the combination of garbage and dirt reduces the difficulty of recycling and processing, allowing both the sweeping system and the washing system to take in water, solving the problem of slow and incomplete recycling, and achieving the technical effect of effective and rapid garbage recycling.
[0034] Reference Figure 1-5 , showing a sewage box provided by an embodiment of the present application, which specifically includes the following structure: it includes a box body 1; a sewage outlet 15 and a slope 13 for discharging dry and wet garbage are provided inside the box body 1; the slope 13 is set at the bottom of the box body 1, and the sewage outlet 15 is set at the bottom end of the slope 13; an electric lifting plug 14 for sealing and draining the sewage box is provided inside the box body 1; the sewage outlet 15 is provided with the electric lifting plug 14; the bottom of the electric lifting plug 14 is adapted to the sewage outlet 15; the electric lifting plug 14 rises and falls at the position of the sewage outlet 15.
[0035] As an example, the air duct opening for recycling dry garbage and wet garbage includes a floor washing air duct 42 connection port 11 arranged on one side of the upper part of the box body 1 and a floor sweeping air duct connection port 12 arranged on the other side of the upper part of the box body 1. The floor washing air duct connection port 11 and the floor sweeping air duct connection port 12 are symmetrically arranged, and both the floor washing air duct connection port 11 and the floor sweeping air duct connection port 12 can take in clean water.
[0036] In one embodiment of the present application, the box body 1 also includes a float assembly 16 for detecting the height data of the garbage from the top of the box body 1; the float assembly 16 is arranged at the top of the box body 1; the float assembly 16 includes a first Hall sensor 161 and a float 162, and the bottom of the first Hall sensor 161 is connected to the float 162.
[0037] In one embodiment of the present application, the electric lifting plug 14 includes a magnet 141 and a second Hall sensor 142 ; the second Hall sensor 142 is disposed at the bottom of the magnet 141 .
[0038] In one specific embodiment, to facilitate the removal of waste from the box 1, a physical slope 13 is provided at the bottom of the box 1. A drain outlet 15 is located at the lowest point of the slope 13. An electric lift plug 14 is located above drain outlet 15. A vibration motor is located below the slope 13. The slope 13 allows large particles mixed with sewage to roll toward drain outlet 15, while the vibration motor removes sediment and other attached materials from the box 1. Combined with the slope 13 and the vibration motor, hot water mixed with clean water is injected through the base station to achieve a more ideal cleaning effect. The exterior of the electric lift plug 14 is pleated.
[0039] In a specific embodiment, the lifting and lowering of the sealing plug is controlled by a lifting motor. When the sealing plug enters the sewage outlet 15, the magnet 141 drops to the position of the second Hall sensor 142. After the software detects that the sealing plug is in place, it determines the current of the lifting motor and stops the motor after reaching the calibrated force. The motor current corresponding to the calibrated force can be measured experimentally and is significantly greater than the force before the plug does not block the sewage outlet 15. When the float 162 moves upward and reaches the position of the first Hall sensor 161, it is determined that the box body 1 is full. When cleaning is completed, or there is no water in the machine's clean water tank, or the box body 1 is full, the robot is turned on to return to the base station for sewage discharge.
[0040] As an example, the bottom of the box body 1 has a physical slope 13, namely the slope 13, which forms a water vortex during recycling, thereby cleaning more thoroughly. The robot vacuum drains water through a sewage outlet provided at the bottom of the base station, discharges the sewage in the robot vacuum box body 1, and discharges it into the sewage tank through the sewage inlet pipe.
[0041] In one embodiment of the present application, the box body 1 includes an inclined surface 13, a vibration motor, an electric lifting plug 14, and a sewage outlet 15; the inclined surface 13 is arranged at the bottom of the box body 1, the vibration motor is arranged on the back of the inclined surface 13, the sewage outlet 15 is arranged at the bottom end of the inclined surface 13, and the sewage outlet 15 is provided with the electric lifting plug 14; when the box body 1 is discharging sewage, the vibration motor vibrates the inclined surface 13, and the dry and wet mixed garbage adhered to the inclined surface 13 is vibrated to the sewage outlet 15, and the electric lifting plug 14 is lifted upward to expose the sewage outlet 15, and the dry and wet mixed garbage is discharged through the sewage outlet 15. A sewage inlet is provided on one side of the box body 1. At least one sewage inlet is provided, and one, two, or more sewage inlets can be provided.
[0042] The lifting and lowering of the sealing plug is controlled by a lifting motor. When the sealing plug enters the drain outlet 15, the magnet 141 descends to the position of the second Hall sensor 142. After the software detects that the sealing plug is in place, it determines the current of the lifting motor and stops the motor when it reaches a calibrated force. The motor current corresponding to the calibrated force can be measured experimentally and is significantly greater than the force before the plug blocks the drain outlet 15. When the float 162 moves upward and reaches the position of the second Hall sensor 142, the box body 1 is determined to be full.
[0043] In one embodiment, the box body 1 further includes a float assembly 16 for detecting the height of the garbage from the top of the box body 1; the float assembly 16 is disposed at the top of the box body 1. A filter assembly is disposed at the top of the box body 1; a space is formed between the filter assembly and the box body for accommodating large particles of garbage.
[0044] In one embodiment, to ensure more thorough drainage and cleaning, a slope 13 is provided at the bottom of the housing 1, with grooves formed on its surface. This slope 13 allows large particles mixed with sewage to roll toward a drain outlet 15. A vibration motor is also provided at the bottom of the housing 1 to remove sediment and other attachments from the housing 1, allowing for a cleaner cleaning after rinsing with clean water. The drain outlet is equipped with an electric lift plug, the bottom of which is adapted to fit within the drain outlet 15. The electric lift plug rises and falls at the drain outlet.
[0045] In a specific embodiment, the electric lifting plug is used to seal the sewage outlet 15. When sewage needs to be discharged, the lifting motor is controlled to raise the electric lifting plug. The float 162 is used to detect whether the sewage outlet is full.
