Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of vacuum cleaner systems, in particular to a vacuum cleaner system. Background Art

[0002] At present, the vacuum cleaner system usually includes a vacuum cleaner device (such as a vacuum cleaner) and a dust collection station. The vacuum cleaner can be used for dust extraction through the dust collection station, without the need for the user to manually empty the dust. The dust collection station is provided with a docking port, a dust bag for collecting dust, and a dust collection station motor that provides negative pressure for dust extraction. When the vacuum cleaner is docked with the docking port of the dust collection station, negative pressure is generated by the action of the dust collection station motor, which can extract the dust in the dust cup of the vacuum cleaner. In this way, the user does not need to empty the dust after each cleaning, and the user can empty the dust once a month or even longer. However, the dust in the dust bag in the vacuum cleaner device may adhere to the inner wall, resulting in residue and reducing the dust removal effect. Utility Model Content

[0003] The main purpose of the utility model is to provide a vacuum cleaner system, which aims to solve the problem that traditional dust collection stations have poor dust removal effects on vacuum cleaner equipment.

[0004] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention proposes a vacuum cleaner system, comprising a vacuum cleaner device and a dust collection station, wherein the vacuum cleaner device comprises:

[0006] an air purging device, which can selectively act on the vacuum cleaner device and generate negative pressure in the dust storage chamber to suck external dirt into the dust storage chamber through the dust inlet; and / or can selectively act on the dust collection station after the vacuum cleaner device is docked with the dust collection station and generate negative pressure in the dust collection station to suck dirt in the dust storage chamber into the dust collection station through the dust discharge port;

[0007] Wherein, the dust exhaust port is arranged on the side wall of the first cup body.

[0008] Optionally, the dust exhaust port extends to a position close to the bottom wall of the first cup body.

[0009] Optionally, the vacuum cleaner device further includes:

[0010] A cyclone cup, the cyclone cup comprising a second cup body and a cyclone device mounted on the second cup body, the cyclone cup being disposed in the dust storage chamber to divide the dust storage chamber into a first chamber located outside the second cup body and a second chamber formed in the second cup body, the first chamber and the second chamber being switchable; and

[0011] The filter element is arranged in the first chamber and is located between the dust inlet and the air inlet side of the cyclone device.

[0012] Optionally, the second cup body is provided with a communication port connecting the first chamber and the second chamber;

[0013] The cyclone cup also includes a second cup cover, which is movably mounted on the second cup body so as to be driven to cover the communication port when negative pressure is formed in the second chamber, and to be driven to open the communication port when negative pressure is formed in the first chamber.

[0014] Optionally, the second cup body is suspended in the dust storage cavity and is spaced apart from the cup bottom wall of the first cup body.

[0015] Optionally, the side wall of the first cup body provided with the dust discharge port is the first side wall;

[0016] The orthographic projection of the cyclone cup on the first side wall is staggered with the dust exhaust port.

[0017] Optionally, the orthographic projection of the cyclone cup on the first side wall is located on a side of the dust exhaust port away from the cup bottom wall of the first cup body.

[0018] Optionally, a phase-connected dust collecting chamber is formed in the dust collecting station;

[0019] After the vacuum cleaner device is docked with the dust collection station, the first cup cover has an open state in which the dust discharge port is movably opened, and the vacuum cleaner system forms a dust extraction path that flows from the dust storage chamber through the dust discharge port to the dust collection chamber, and the first cup cover is located outside the dust extraction path.

[0020] Optionally, a dust collecting chamber and a connecting channel are formed in the dust collecting station; the vacuum cleaner device has a first posture in which the dust outlet is maintained facing sideways;

[0021] The vacuum cleaner device is docked with the dust collection station in the first posture, and at least part of the channel section of the connecting channel is arranged beside the dust exhaust port, and is connected to the dust exhaust port when the first cup cover is movable to open the dust exhaust port.

The dust collecting station does not need to be equipped with additional structures such as a fan, so that the overall structure of the dust collecting station can be simpler and lighter, and the overall maintenance cost of the dust collecting station is also lower.

[0039] See also Figures 1 to 6The present invention provides a vacuum cleaner device 100. The vacuum cleaner device 100 can be used in a vacuum cleaner system. In order to achieve better operation of the vacuum cleaner device 100, the vacuum cleaner system can further include a dust collection station 200.

[0040] The specific form of the vacuum cleaner device 100 is not limited, and in actual application, the use orientation of the vacuum cleaner device 100 may be different. However, for ease of understanding, in the following embodiments, Figures 1 to 6 The handheld vacuum cleaner device 100 is taken as an example for description. In this case, the vacuum cleaner device 100 has a substantially vertical up-down direction and a horizontal direction.

[0041] In view of this, the vacuum cleaner device 100 can generally be divided into multiple components according to its functions, such as but not limited to the air inlet part and the dust cup 110, and according to actual needs, it can also include a gripping part.

[0042] The air intake section generally forms an air inlet duct, and the upstream of the air inlet duct can directly form the air inlet of the entire machine. Depending on actual needs, the air intake section can also be equipped with some accessory brush heads for cleaning in different scenarios, such as pet brush heads, crevice brush heads, mite removal brush heads, etc.

[0043] In actual application, the dust cup 110 includes a first cup body 111 and a first cup cover 112. The first cup body 111 is provided with a dust storage cavity. The first cup body 111 is also provided with a dust inlet 111b, a dust outlet 111c and an air outlet 111d connected to the dust storage cavity. The dust inlet 111b is connected to the downstream of the air inlet duct; the first cup cover 112 can be movably opened and closed to cover the dust outlet 111c. The dust cup 110 can be set to a columnar structure extending in the up and down directions. In this case, the air inlet portion can be roughly set on one side of the dust cup 110 in the horizontal direction, and the air inlet portion and the air inlet duct formed therein can be roughly extended in the horizontal direction.

[0044] An air outlet duct is generally formed inside the air outlet portion, and the upstream of the air outlet duct is connected to the exhaust port 111d of the dust cup 110. The downstream of the air outlet portion can generally directly constitute the air outlet of the entire machine, so that after the dust cup 110 traps the dirt in the air carrying dirt in the dust storage chamber, the air outlet portion discharges the relatively clean air to the outside through the air outlet. Of course, in specific applications, through structural design, the downstream exhaust port 111d of the dust cup 110 can be directly used as the air outlet, that is, the downstream cavity section of the dust cup 110 directly constitutes the air outlet duct.

[0045] The grip portion is the portion that the user holds to drive the entire device. There is no restriction on its specific structure, and it can be, but is not limited to, a rod or a ring.

[0046] like Figures 1 to 2As shown, in order to make the structure of the whole machine compact, the dust cup 110 and the air outlet can be arranged to extend in a columnar shape along the vertical direction, and the air outlet is arranged above the dust cup 110. The air inlet is arranged on one side of the dust cup 110 in the horizontal direction, and the grip is arranged on the other side of the dust cup 110 in the horizontal direction.

[0047] In view of the above, the vacuum cleaner device 100 can at least be used for dust collection. In order to achieve the purpose of gas entering the air inlet duct from the air inlet, passing through the dust cup 110 and the air outlet duct, and finally being discharged outward from the air outlet, in a specific application, the vacuum cleaner device 100 also includes an air expelling device. The air expelling device refers to any device that can achieve the purpose of driving the directional flow of gas, which can be composed of a single component (such as a fan) alone, or composed of at least two single components (such as a fan and an air guide structure). The air expelling device may include a fan, which may be but not limited to an axial flow fan, a cross-flow fan, a centrifugal fan, etc. The air expelling device generally has a suction side and an exhaust side under normal operating conditions. When started, the suction side of the air expelling device forms a negative pressure, which can draw the external airflow into the interior of the air expelling device; the exhaust side forms a positive pressure, which can discharge the airflow inside the air expelling device outward.

[0048] In actual application, the exhaust side of the air-exhaust device can be connected to the air inlet to blow gas into the air inlet duct, so as to achieve the purpose of driving the gas from the air inlet into the air inlet duct, passing through the dust storage chamber and the air outlet duct, and finally being discharged outward from the air outlet. However, in order to reduce the adverse effects of the air-exhaust device on the air flow of the air inlet part, Figures 1 to 6 In the illustrated embodiments, the suction side of the purge device is connected to the downstream of the air outlet duct, and the exhaust side of the purge device constitutes the air outlet of the entire machine. Of course, when the entire machine is not provided with an air outlet, the suction side of the purge device can be directly connected to the exhaust port 111d of the dust cup 110.

[0049] In view of this, in order to achieve the purpose of trapping dust and other contaminants in the external dust-laden airflow within the dust storage chamber, in one embodiment, the vacuum cleaner device 100 further includes a filter 130. The filter 130 is at least disposed within the dust storage chamber and upstream of the exhaust port 111d. When the dust-laden airflow enters the dust storage chamber through the dust inlet 111b and flows through the filter 130, dust and other contaminants are trapped by the filter 130 and stored within the dust storage chamber, while the relatively fast airflow is discharged outward through the exhaust port 111d. The filter 130 can be, for example, a porous filter.

[0050] Furthermore, the vacuum cleaner device 100 also includes a cyclone cup 120, which includes a second cup body 121 and a cyclone device 123 mounted on the second cup body 121. The cyclone cup 120 is disposed within the dust storage chamber to divide the dust storage chamber into a first chamber 111a located outside the second cup body 121 and a second chamber 121a formed within the second cup body 121. The first chamber 111a and the second chamber 121a can be switched on and off. The cyclone device 123 is generally disposed upstream of the second cup body 121. It is understood that when the external dust-laden air flow first enters the first chamber 111a through the dust inlet 111b, a portion of the dirt will be trapped in the first chamber 111a under the filtering action of the filter element 130. The dust-laden airflow then continues to flow toward the cyclone device 123, where the dust and impurities are separated by centrifugal force generated by the rotation and trapped in the second chamber 121a of the second cup 121. The cyclone device 123 may be, for example, but not limited to, a multi-cone filter.

[0051] In view of the above, it can be seen that the first chamber 111a mainly stores the primary filtered dirt intercepted by the filter element 130, and the second chamber 121a mainly stores the secondary filtered dirt intercepted by the cyclone element 123. In order to achieve synchronous dust extraction in the first chamber 111a and the second chamber 121a, in one embodiment, the second cup body 121 is provided with a communication port 121b connecting the first chamber 111a and the second chamber 121a. The cyclone cup 120 also includes a second cup cover 122, which is movably mounted on the second cup body 121 so as to be driven to cover the communication port 121b when negative pressure is generated in the second chamber 121a, and to be driven to open the communication port 121b when negative pressure is generated in the first chamber 111a. When the second cup cover 122 opens the communication port 121b, the first chamber 111a and the second chamber 121a remain connected, so that the first chamber 111a and the second chamber 121a can synchronously perform dust extraction, cleaning and other operations. Conversely, when the second cup cover 122 covers the communication port 121b, the first chamber 111a and the second chamber 121a are separated at least at this position, so that the first chamber 111a and the second chamber 121a can respectively and independently perform dust storage operations.

[0052] In addition, to ensure the orderly operation of the various components in the vacuum cleaner system, the vacuum cleaner system may also include a power supply device and a control device. The power supply device may include, but is not limited to, a one-time charge-discharge power supply device, such as a disposable battery; or the power supply device may include a rechargeable power supply device, such as a battery that can be electrically connected to the mains. The power supply device may be located within the housing, for example, on the side of the purge device facing away from the air outlet / dust cup 110. The control device is electrically connected to at least the power supply device and the purge device to control the charging and discharging of the power supply device, as well as the starting and stopping of the purge device, and the adjustment of the preset operating power, according to actual needs, such as according to a preset program or in response to a user trigger command. The control device may be built into the vacuum cleaner device 100, or may be externally located, such as at the dust collection station 200 or other location, as needed, and communicate with the purge device on the vacuum cleaner device 100, such as through a wireless connection. The power supply device may be located on the side of the purge device away from the air inlet, and opposite the air inlet.

[0053] In addition, the vacuum cleaner device 100 and / or the dust collection station 200 may also be provided with a display module and / or an input device. The display module includes a display panel, which may display digitally or graphically as needed. The input device may be, but is not limited to, physical or virtual buttons, a voice recognition module, a gesture recognition module, etc., allowing the user to manually enter relevant trigger commands.

[0054] Of course, depending on actual needs, the vacuum cleaner device 100 and / or the dust collection station 200 may also be equipped with one or more sensor devices. The sensor device is electrically connected to the control device so that the control device can intelligently control the operation of the corresponding functional components based on the sensing data of the sensor device. The sensor device can, for example, be located at the interface between the vacuum cleaner device 100 and the dust collection station 200, and be triggered when the vacuum cleaner device 100 and the dust collection station 200 are docked to generate a sensor signal.

[0055] The dust collection station 200 is typically used in conjunction with the vacuum cleaner 100. The vacuum cleaner 100 has a first operating state, in which it operates independently from the dust collection station 200, and a second operating state, in which it is docked with the dust collection station 200. In the second operating state, the dust collection station 200 can perform various preset operations on the vacuum cleaner 100, driven by preset programs or in response to user triggers. These preset operations may include, but are not limited to, charging, cleaning, and vacuuming.

[0056] Based on one or more of the above embodiments, please combine Figures 2 to 6When the vacuum cleaner device 100 is in the first working state, the air purging device can act alone on the vacuum cleaner device 100, for example, specifically on the dust storage chamber, forming a negative pressure in the dust storage chamber, so that the external dust-laden airflow can be sucked into the dust storage chamber with the help of the negative pressure. When the vacuum cleaner device 100 is in the second working state, the air purging device can act alone or synchronously on the base station. Specifically, a dust collecting chamber 210 can be formed in the base station. When in the second working state, the first cup cover 112 movably opens the dust discharge port 111c and is in an open state, and the dust collecting chamber 210 is connected to the dust storage chamber through the dust discharge port 111c. And when the second cup cover 122 movably opens the connecting port 121b and is in an open state, the dust collecting chamber 210 can synchronously connect the first chamber 111a and the second chamber 121a. When the air removal device generates negative pressure in the dust collecting chamber 210, the dirt in the first chamber 111a and / or the second chamber 121a can be sucked into the dust collecting chamber 210 through the dust exhaust port 111c with the help of the negative pressure, thereby completing the dust extraction and cleaning of the first chamber 111a and / or the second chamber 121a.

[0057] In view of one or more of the above embodiments, further, in this design, the dust exhaust port 111c is provided on the side wall of the first cup body 111 .

[0058] In the technical solution provided by the present invention, the dust exhaust port 111c is arranged on the side wall of the first cup body 111. On the one hand, the relatively large panel surface of the side wall of the first cup body 111 can be used to reserve sufficient space to reasonably design the size, shape and orientation of the dust exhaust port 111c, so that the structure of the dust exhaust port 111c is more adaptable; on the other hand, the dust exhaust port 111c is facing sideways, especially when the vacuum cleaner device 100 is docked with the dust collecting station 200 in a horizontal posture, which is more conducive to discharging the dirt in the dust storage cavity faster. In addition, after the vacuum cleaner device 100 is docked with the dust collecting station 200, the dust collecting station 200 can reasonably utilize the air expelling device fixed on the vacuum cleaner device 100 to generate negative pressure in at least part of the area within the dust collecting station 200, thereby facilitating the dust collecting station 200 to use the negative pressure to suck the dirt in the dust storage chamber to the area. The dust collecting station 200 does not need to be additionally equipped with structures such as fans, so that the overall structure of the dust collecting station 200 can be simpler and lighter, and the overall maintenance cost of the dust collecting station 200 is lower.

[0059] For ease of understanding, the side wall of the first cup body 111 provided with the dust discharge port 111c is defined as the first side wall. Specifically, the dust discharge port 111c can be located near the bottom wall of the first side wall, for example, the dust discharge port 111c can be extended to the bottom wall of the first cup body 111. In this way, the distance between the bottom wall of the first cup body 111 and the bottom edge of the dust discharge port 111c can be minimized, thereby minimizing the formation of blind spots during dust extraction. As a result, under the action of negative pressure, as much dirt stored in the dust storage chamber as possible can be sucked away.

[0060] Of course, in actual application, the bottom edge of the dust outlet 111c can be extended to be substantially flush with the bottom wall of the first cup body 111. Alternatively, in other embodiments, the bottom wall of the first cup body 111 can be configured to gradually approach and extend toward the bottom edge of the dust outlet 111c in the direction close to the first side wall, forming an inclined, straight, or curved guide surface.

[0061] Furthermore, when the cyclone cup 120 is disposed within the dust cup 110 as described above, the second cup body 121 is suspended within the dust storage chamber and spaced apart from the bottom wall of the first cup body 111. This allows, on the one hand, sufficient space to store primary filtered waste at the bottom of the first chamber 111a; on the other hand, sufficient space can be reserved below the communication port 121b for the second cup cover 122 to open and close. Furthermore, when the second cup cover 122 is movable to open the communication port 121b and is in the open state, the secondary filtered waste within the second chamber 121a can be transferred into the first chamber 111a under the action of gravity or negative pressure, and discharged outward through the dust outlet 111c together with the primary filtered waste within the first chamber 111a.

[0062] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the orthographic projection of the cyclone cup 120 on the first side wall is staggered from the dust outlet 111c. It is understood that when the purge device creates a negative pressure within the dust collection chamber 210, dirt within the dust storage chamber will generally be discharged outward in a direction perpendicular to the dust outlet 111c. When the orthographic projection of the cyclone cup 120 on the first side wall is staggered from the dust outlet 111c, dirt can be effectively prevented from being blocked by the cyclone cup 120, especially the second cup body 121, during the discharge process, thereby facilitating a more thorough and smooth discharge of dirt.

[0063] Furthermore, the orthographic projection of the cyclone cup 120 on the first side wall is located on the side of the dust outlet 111c away from the bottom wall of the first cup body 111. In view of the above, it can be seen that the vacuum cleaner device 100 generally has a first posture in which the dust outlet 111c is maintained facing sideways, that is, an upright posture. When the vacuum cleaner device 100 is docked with the dust collection station 200 in the first posture, since the orthographic projection of the cyclone cup 120 on the first side wall is located above the dust outlet 111c, when the second cup cover 122 opens the connecting port 121b, the dirt in the second chamber 121a will fall to the bottom of the first chamber 111a under the action of gravity, and be discharged outward through the dust outlet 111c together with the dirt in the first chamber 111a, which not only helps to prevent the cyclone cup 120 from interfering with dust extraction, but also helps to improve the dust extraction effect, especially of the dirt in the second cup body 121.

[0064] In addition, please combine Figures 3 to 6 When the vacuum cleaner device 100 is docked with the dust collection station 200 in the first posture as described above, a dust collection chamber 210 and a connecting channel 220 are formed in the dust collection station 200, which are in communication with each other. At least a portion of the connecting channel 220 is arranged beside the dust discharge port 111c and is in communication with the dust discharge port 111c when the first cup cover 112 is moved to open the dust discharge port 111c. In this way, the negative pressure force exerted by at least the channel section of the connecting channel 220 beside the dust discharge port 111c on the dust storage chamber is substantially perpendicular to the dust discharge port 111c, which means that the dirt in the dust storage chamber can be discharged more smoothly in a direction substantially perpendicular to the dust discharge port 111c.

[0065] Furthermore, the remaining channel section of the connecting channel 220 and / or the dust collecting chamber 210 is arranged below the dust cup 110. In this way, after the dirt in the dust storage chamber is smoothly discharged outward through at least the channel section of the connecting channel 220 located next to the dust discharge port 111c, the remaining channel section of the connecting channel 220 is guided to the dust collecting chamber 210 along the direction of gravity and the direction of negative pressure, which is more conducive to faster dust extraction.

[0066] Alternatively, when the vacuum cleaner device 100 has a second posture in which the dust discharge port 111c is maintained facing downward, i.e., a horizontal posture, similarly, a dust collection chamber 210 and a connecting channel 220 are formed in the dust collection station 200, and at least a portion of the connecting channel 220 is arranged below the dust discharge port 111c, and is connected to the dust discharge port 111c when the first cup cover 112 is moved to open the dust discharge port 111c. In this way, the dirt in the dust storage chamber can be directly guided by gravity and negative pressure to fall into the dust collection chamber 210 along the connecting channel 220.

[0067] Of course, the specific form of the connecting channel 220 in the above embodiment is not limited. According to actual needs, the connecting channel 220 can be set as a channel structure independent of the dust collecting chamber 210, or a local chamber of the dust collecting chamber 210 can be directly used to form the connecting channel 220.

[0068] In view of the above, the first cup cover 112 is movably arranged at the dust outlet 111c, and has an open state in which the dust outlet 111c is movably opened, and a closed state in which the dust outlet 111c is movably covered. It can be understood that when the vacuum cleaner device 100 is in the first working state, the first cup cover 112 is generally in a closed state, ensuring that the dust storage chamber is in a closed state except for the dust inlet 111b and the exhaust port 111d, thereby effectively achieving the purpose of dust collection and dust storage. When the vacuum cleaner device 100 is switched to the second working state at the same time or thereafter, the first cup cover 112 can be switched from the closed state to the open state by, for example, mechanical triggering through a mechanical linkage docking action, automatic association triggering by a preset program, manual triggering by the user, and the like. After switching to the on state, if the vacuum cleaner system is defined to form a dust extraction path that flows from the dust storage chamber through the dust exhaust port 111c to the dust collecting chamber 210, then as much as possible, the first cup cover 112 is set to be located outside the dust extraction path. This can minimize the obstruction formed by the first cup cover 112 in the process of dirt passing through the dust storage chamber into the dust collecting chamber 210, thereby improving the dust extraction effect.
