Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of cleaning equipment, and more specifically, to a cleaning equipment. Background Art
[0002] Environmental sanitation is an important factor affecting the quality of life. Therefore, as people's requirements for quality of life continue to improve, the corresponding requirements for environmental sanitation are also getting higher and higher. As a result, many ground cleaning equipment have emerged, including vacuum cleaners, sweepers, floor scrubbers, sweeper-mop machines, etc.
[0003] Most existing cleaning devices transmit information to users via screens. Cleaning devices that transmit information via screens often have their display screens located on the top surface of the body, i.e., the top surface of the body. This is suitable for one-way viewing only, meaning the screen content can only be observed when the user is using the cleaning device and their line of sight is within a certain range of angles. The user's optimal viewing angle range is relatively small, making it difficult to observe the screen content located on the top surface of the body when the body is tilted at a large angle or even lying flat. Furthermore, when the cleaning device is returned to its base or base station for charging or self-cleaning, the screen content cannot be easily and intuitively observed from a distance, making it difficult for the user to clearly see the screen content. Even if the user can see the screen content, the content will be displayed in reverse, making it difficult to understand the actual content. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to solve the problems existing in the prior art, the present disclosure provides a cleaning device.
[0005] According to a first aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a cleaning device comprising a body and a floor brush assembly;
[0006] The floor brush assembly is configured to clean a work surface, and the body is configured to rotate relative to the floor brush assembly between a first position and a second position, wherein the angle between the body and the work surface when in the first position is greater than the angle between the body and the work surface when in the second position;
[0007] A display assembly is provided on the top of the fuselage, and the display assembly includes a first display area displayed in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the fuselage and a second display area displayed in a direction along the axis of the fuselage. During use of the cleaning device of the present disclosure, a user can hold the cleaning device of the present disclosure and move it on a work surface to clean the work surface with the floor brush assembly. In the process of moving the cleaning device, the fuselage can be controlled by the user's movements to rotate relative to the floor brush assembly between a first position and a second position. Since the angle between the fuselage and the work surface when in the first position is greater than the angle between the fuselage and the work surface when in the second position, the fuselage is in a flat or nearly flat state when in the second position, which is convenient for cleaning low places such as seats and under sofas. After the user completes the cleaning work, the user can put the cleaning device back to the base or base station for charging or self-cleaning, etc. At this time, the fuselage is in the first position, that is, in a basically upright state.
[0008] A display assembly is provided on the top of the fuselage, comprising a first display area displaying in a direction perpendicular to the fuselage axis and a second display area displaying in a direction along the fuselage axis. When the fuselage is in a first position, the angle between the emission direction of at least part of the display light in the first display area and the working surface is relatively small. When the fuselage is in a second position, the angle between the emission direction of at least part of the display light and the vertical surface is also relatively small. The display light emitted by the second display area is always directed upward along the axial direction of the fuselage.
[0009] The display assembly can control the first display area to display different colors, patterns, or text based on the state of the cleaning device. Thus, when the user returns the cleaning device to the base or base station and the device is in the first position, i.e., in a substantially upright position, the angle between the emission direction of at least part of the display light and the working surface is relatively small, making it easier for the user to observe the specific state of the cleaning device from a distance, thereby eliminating the need for the user to walk close to the device to specifically observe the display screen on the top surface of the device.
[0010] During general use of the cleaning device of the present invention, the user holds the cleaning device of the present invention and moves it on the work surface with the body in a basically upright state. When cleaning the work surface, the user can obtain the state of the cleaning device itself by observing the second display area.
[0011] In the scenario where the existing cleaning equipment is in a flat position, the top surface of the body is perpendicular or nearly perpendicular to the working surface. At this time, the user's field of view is on the vertical upper side of the flat body. The user looks down at the flat body. At this time, the user's line of sight is parallel or nearly parallel to the top surface of the body, and the user cannot observe the cleaning progress or other function displays displayed on the screen on the top surface of the body.
[0012] To avoid the above problems, when the user uses the cleaning device, the body is in the second position, that is, it is in a lying flat or nearly lying flat state, which is convenient for cleaning low places such as seats and under sofas. Since the angle between the emission direction of at least part of the display light and the vertical plane is small, it is convenient for the user to observe the specific status of the cleaning device from above the body of the cleaning device.
[0013] The first display area and the second display area will display the cleaning progress of the floor brush assembly on the current working surface. Through the changes in the color, pattern or text of the first display area and the second display area, the user is reminded whether the current working surface has been cleaned or other information, so that the user can control the cleaning progress. Specifically, the display component can display different colors according to the control of the first display area and the second display area to reflect the degree of dirtiness of the currently cleaned area. In this way, when the user is cleaning low places such as seats and under sofas, the degree of dirtiness of the cleaned area can be indirectly obtained through the color displayed in the first display area, thereby ensuring that the low areas are cleaned before cleaning other areas, preventing dirt in the low areas from not being cleaned and omissions from occurring, thereby avoiding the situation where the fuselage is too close to the ground when cleaning low areas, causing the user's field of vision to be directly above the fuselage, making it difficult to view the blind spot of the display area on the top surface of the fuselage.
[0014] After the cleaning device is placed on the base or base station, the display component can display different colors according to the control of the first display area to indicate whether the charging process or the self-cleaning process is completed. The user can observe from a distance whether the cleaning device is charged or self-cleaning is completed, thereby facilitating the user to remove the cleaning device from the base or base station and continue cleaning without the need for the user to walk to the cleaning device to check the function progress on the display screen on the top surface of the body.
[0015] It can be seen that the cleaning device disclosed herein effectively optimizes the user's viewing angle, ensuring that the user can observe the display status of the display component whether in use or not, or at any angle, avoiding the problem of not being able to understand the cleaning status when it is difficult to view the display area set on the top surface of the fuselage, and effectively improving the user experience.
[0016] Specifically, the outer peripheral contour of the top of the fuselage is used as a display area, thereby expanding the user's observation angle of the cleaning information of the cleaning device, so that the user can observe the display information no matter at which angle and what state the fuselage is in. For example, when the fuselage is lying flat for work, even if the user's line of sight is parallel to the top surface of the fuselage, the cleaning information of the cleaning device can be understood through the display area on the outer periphery of the top of the fuselage; when the fuselage is tilted for use, the user's line of sight can view the information displayed on the top of the fuselage along the axial direction of the fuselage, for example, by observing through the second display area.
[0017] According to a second aspect of the present disclosure, a cleaning device is provided, comprising a body and a floor brush assembly; the floor brush assembly is configured to clean a work surface, and the body is constructed to be able to rotate relative to the floor brush assembly to a lying state; a display assembly is provided on the outer side of the top of the body, and the display direction of at least a part of the area of the display assembly is configured to form an angle with the axis of the body.
[0018] Since the display direction of the display component forms an angle with the axis of the fuselage, the cleaning device disclosed herein effectively optimizes the user's viewing angle, ensuring that the user can observe the display status of the display component from multiple viewing angles, effectively improving the user's usage experience.
[0019] According to a third aspect of the present disclosure, a cleaning device is provided, comprising a body and a floor brush assembly; the floor brush assembly is configured to clean a work surface; a display assembly is provided on the top of the body, and the display assembly includes a light guide, which is constructed to gradually extend outward from the top end of the light guide to the bottom end of the light guide.
[0020] Since the display assembly includes a light guide, the light guide is constructed to gradually extend outward from the top end of the light guide to the bottom end of the light guide, so that the display assembly can form a first display area displayed in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the fuselage and a second display area displayed in a direction along the axis of the fuselage.
[0021] The cleaning device disclosed herein effectively optimizes the user's viewing angle, ensuring that the user can observe the first display area displayed in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the fuselage and the second display area displayed in a direction along the axis of the fuselage formed by the light guide member, whether in use or not, or at any angle, and observe the display status of the display component, avoiding the problem of not being able to understand the cleaning status when it is difficult to view the display area set on the top surface of the fuselage, thereby effectively improving the user experience.

Unless otherwise stated, the numerical ranges herein include not only the entire range within its two endpoints, but also several sub-ranges contained therein.
[0036] The present disclosure provides a cleaning device, which includes at least a body and a floor brush assembly; the floor brush assembly is configured to clean a work surface, and the body is constructed to rotate relative to the floor brush assembly between a first position and a second position, and the angle between the body and the work surface when in the first position is greater than the angle between the body and the work surface when in the second position.
[0037] A display assembly is provided on the top of the fuselage, and the display assembly includes a first display area for displaying in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the fuselage and a second display area for displaying in a direction along the axis of the fuselage.
[0038] Thus, during use of the cleaning device of the present disclosure, the user can hold the cleaning device of the present disclosure and move it on the work surface to clean the work surface with the floor brush assembly. In addition, during the movement of the cleaning device, the body can be controlled by the user's movements to rotate relative to the floor brush assembly between a first position and a second position. Since the angle between the body and the work surface when in the first position is greater than the angle between the body and the work surface when in the second position, the body is in a flat or nearly flat position when in the second position, which is convenient for cleaning low places such as seats and sofas. After the user completes the cleaning work, the user can return the cleaning device to the base or base station for charging or self-cleaning. At this time, the body is in the first position, that is, in a substantially upright state.
[0039] A display assembly is provided on the top of the fuselage, comprising a first display area displaying in a direction perpendicular to the fuselage axis and a second display area displaying in a direction along the fuselage axis. When the fuselage is in a first position, the angle between the emission direction of at least part of the display light in the first display area and the working surface is relatively small. When the fuselage is in a second position, the angle between the emission direction of at least part of the display light and the vertical surface is also relatively small. The display light emitted by the second display area is always directed upward along the axial direction of the fuselage.
[0040] The display assembly can control the first display area to display different colors, patterns, or text based on the state of the cleaning device. Thus, when the user returns the cleaning device to the base or base station and the device is in the first position, i.e., in a substantially upright position, the angle between the emission direction of at least part of the display light and the working surface is relatively small, making it easier for the user to observe the specific state of the cleaning device from a distance, thereby eliminating the need for the user to walk close to the device to specifically observe the display screen on the top surface of the device.
[0041] During general use of the cleaning device of the present invention, the user holds the cleaning device of the present invention and moves it on the work surface with the body in a basically upright state. When cleaning the work surface, the user can obtain the state of the cleaning device itself by observing the second display area.
[0042] In the scenario where the existing cleaning equipment is in a flat position, the top surface of the body is perpendicular or nearly perpendicular to the working surface. At this time, the user's field of view is on the vertical upper side of the flat body. The user looks down at the flat body. At this time, the user's line of sight is parallel or nearly parallel to the top surface of the body, and the user cannot observe the cleaning progress or other function displays displayed on the screen on the top surface of the body.
[0043] To avoid the above problems, when the user uses the cleaning device, the body is in the second position, that is, it is in a lying flat or nearly lying flat state, which is convenient for cleaning low places such as seats and under sofas. Since the angle between the emission direction of at least part of the display light and the vertical plane is small, it is convenient for the user to observe the specific status of the cleaning device from above the body of the cleaning device.
[0044] The first display area and the second display area will display the cleaning progress of the floor brush assembly on the current working surface. Through the changes in the color, pattern or text of the first display area and the second display area, the user is reminded whether the current working surface has been cleaned or other information, so that the user can control the cleaning progress. Specifically, the display component can display different colors according to the control of the first display area and the second display area to reflect the degree of dirtiness of the currently cleaned area. In this way, when the user is cleaning low places such as seats and under sofas, the degree of dirtiness of the cleaned area can be indirectly obtained through the color displayed in the first display area, thereby ensuring that the low areas are cleaned before cleaning other areas, preventing dirt in the low areas from not being cleaned and omissions from occurring, thereby avoiding the situation where the fuselage is too close to the ground when cleaning low areas, causing the user's field of vision to be directly above the fuselage, making it difficult to view the blind spot of the display area on the top surface of the fuselage.
[0045] After the cleaning device is placed on the base or base station, the display component can display different colors according to the control of the first display area to indicate whether the charging process or the self-cleaning process is completed. The user can observe from a distance whether the cleaning device is charged or self-cleaning is completed, thereby facilitating the user to remove the cleaning device from the base or base station and continue cleaning without the need for the user to walk to the cleaning device to check the function progress on the display screen on the top surface of the body.
[0046] It can be seen that the cleaning device disclosed herein effectively optimizes the user's viewing angle, ensuring that the user can observe the display status of the display component whether in use or not, or at any angle, avoiding the problem of not being able to understand the cleaning status when it is difficult to view the display area set on the top surface of the fuselage, and effectively improving the user experience.
[0047] Specifically, the outer peripheral contour of the top of the fuselage is used as a display area, thereby expanding the user's observation angle of the cleaning information of the cleaning device, so that the user can observe the display information no matter at which angle and what state the fuselage is in. For example, when the fuselage is lying flat for work, even if the user's line of sight is parallel to the top surface of the fuselage, the cleaning information of the cleaning device can be understood through the display area on the outer periphery of the top of the fuselage; when the fuselage is tilted for use, the user's line of sight can view the information displayed on the top of the fuselage along the axial direction of the fuselage, for example, by observing through the second display area.
[0048] For ease of understanding, refer to Figures 1 to 6 , the specific structure and working principle of the cleaning device disclosed in the present invention are explained in detail with reference to an embodiment.
[0049] like Figure 1 As shown, the present disclosure provides a cleaning device, which includes at least a body 10 and a floor brush assembly 20; the floor brush assembly 20 is configured to clean a work surface, and the body 10 is constructed to rotate relative to the floor brush assembly 20 between a first position and a second position, and the angle between the body 10 and the work surface when in the first position is greater than the angle between the body 10 and the work surface when in the second position.
[0050] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a display assembly 11 is provided on the top of the fuselage 10 , and the display assembly 11 includes a first display area 111 displayed in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the fuselage 10 and a second display area 112 displayed in a direction along the axis of the fuselage 10 .
[0051] In this way, during the use of the cleaning device of the present disclosure, the user can hold the cleaning device of the present disclosure and move it on the work surface to use the floor brush assembly 20 to clean the work surface. In the process of moving the cleaning device, the body 10 can be controlled by the user's action to rotate relative to the floor brush assembly 20 between the first position and the second position. Since the angle between the body 10 and the work surface when it is in the first position is greater than the angle between the body 10 and the work surface when it is in the second position, the body 10 is in a flat or nearly flat position when it is in the second position, which is convenient for cleaning low places such as seats and sofas. After the user completes the cleaning work, the user can put the cleaning device back to the base or base station for charging or self-cleaning, etc. At this time, the body 10 is in the first position, that is, in a basically upright state.
[0052] A display assembly 11 is disposed on top of the body 10. The display assembly 11 includes a first display area 111 that displays images perpendicular to the axis of the body 10 and a second display area 112 that displays images along the axis of the body 10. When the body 10 is in the first position, the angle between the emission direction of at least part of the display light from the first display area 111 and the working surface is relatively small. When the body 10 is in the second position, the angle between the emission direction of at least part of the display light and the vertical surface is also relatively small. The display light from the second display area 112 is always directed upward along the axis of the body 10.
[0053] The display assembly 11 can control the first display area 111 to display different colors, patterns, or text based on the state of the cleaning device. Thus, when the user places the cleaning device back on the base or base station and the body 10 is in the first position, i.e., in a substantially upright position, the angle between the emission direction of at least part of the display light and the working surface is relatively small, making it easier for the user to observe the specific state of the cleaning device from a distance, thereby eliminating the need for the user to walk close to the body to specifically observe the display screen located on the top surface of the body.
[0054] During general use of the cleaning device of the present invention, the user holds the cleaning device of the present invention and moves it on the work surface. The body 10 is in a basically upright state. When cleaning the work surface, the user can obtain the state of the cleaning device by observing the second display area 112.
[0055] In the scenario where the existing cleaning equipment is in a flat position, the top surface of the body is perpendicular or nearly perpendicular to the working surface. At this time, the user's field of view is on the vertical upper side of the flat body. The user looks down at the flat body. At this time, the user's line of sight is parallel or nearly parallel to the top surface of the body, and the user cannot observe the cleaning progress or other function displays displayed on the screen on the top surface of the body.
[0056] To avoid the above problems, when the user uses the cleaning device, in order to facilitate cleaning low places such as seats and under sofas, the body 10 is in the second position, that is, it is in a lying flat or nearly lying flat state. Since the angle between the emission direction of at least part of the display light and the vertical plane is small, it is convenient for the user to observe the specific status of the cleaning device from above the body of the cleaning device.
[0057] The first display area 111 and the second display area 112 will display the cleaning progress of the floor brush assembly 20 on the current working surface. By changing the color, pattern or text of the first display area 111 and the second display area 112, the user is reminded whether the current working surface has been cleaned or other information, so that the user can control the cleaning progress. Specifically, the display assembly 11 can control the first display area 111 and the second display area 112 to display different colors to reflect the degree of dirtiness of the currently cleaned area. In this way, when the user is cleaning low places such as seats and under sofas, the degree of dirtiness of the cleaned area can be indirectly obtained by the color displayed in the first display area 111, thereby ensuring that the low areas are cleaned before cleaning other areas, preventing dirt in the low areas from not being cleaned and omissions from occurring, thereby avoiding the situation where the fuselage is too close to the ground when cleaning low areas, causing the user's field of vision to be directly above the fuselage, and it is difficult to view the blind spot of the display area on the top surface of the fuselage.
[0058] After the cleaning device is placed on the base or base station, the display component 11 can display different colors according to the control of the first display area 111 to indicate whether the charging process or the self-cleaning process is completed. The user can observe from a distance whether the cleaning device is charged or self-cleaning is completed, thereby facilitating the user to remove the cleaning device from the base or base station and continue cleaning without the need for the user to walk to the cleaning device to check the function progress on the display screen on the top surface of the body.
[0059] It can be seen that the cleaning device disclosed herein effectively optimizes the user's viewing angle, ensuring that the user can observe the display status of the display component 11 whether in use or not, or at any angle, avoiding the problem of not being able to understand the cleaning status when it is difficult to view the display area set on the top surface of the fuselage, and effectively improving the user's experience.
[0060] Specifically, the outer peripheral contour of the top of the fuselage 10 serves as a display area, thereby expanding the user's viewing angle for the cleaning information of the cleaning device, so that the user can observe the display information no matter at which angle and no matter what state the fuselage 10 is in. For example, when the fuselage 10 is lying flat for work, even if the user's line of sight is parallel to the top surface of the fuselage, the cleaning information of the cleaning device can be understood through the display area on the top periphery of the fuselage 10; when the fuselage 10 is tilted for use, the user's line of sight can view the information displayed on the top of the fuselage 10 along the axial direction of the fuselage, for example, through the second display area 112 to view the information displayed on the top of the fuselage 10.
[0061] like Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, the cleaning device of the present disclosure also includes a handle 30, which is fixedly arranged above the body 10. The user can hold the handle 30 to pull the cleaning device of the present disclosure to move on the work surface and rotate relative to the work surface, so as to use the floor brush assembly 20 to clean the work surface.
[0062] like Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, with the direction from the axis of the body 10 toward the top side of the body 10 as the positive direction of the axial direction of the body 10, the display direction of at least a portion of the display component 11 is configured to form an angle of no more than 90 degrees with the positive direction of the axis of the body 10.
[0063] Since the display direction of the display assembly 11 forms an angle of no more than 90 degrees with the positive direction of the axis of the body 10, when the user puts the cleaning device back to the base or base station and the body 10 is in the first position, i.e., in a basically upright state, it is convenient for the user to observe the specific status of the cleaning device from the upper oblique side of the cleaning device body 10. In the process of using the cleaning device, when the user is convenient for cleaning low places such as seats and under sofas, when the body 10 is in the second position, i.e., in a lying or nearly lying state, the user can observe the specific status of the cleaning device from the upper or oblique side of the cleaning device body. Therefore, the cleaning device disclosed in the present invention effectively optimizes the user's viewing angle, ensuring that the user can still observe the display status of the display assembly 11 from multiple viewing angles even when it is difficult to clearly observe the display area on the top surface of the body, thereby effectively improving the user's usage experience.
[0064] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the first display area 111 is configured so that when the body 10 is in the first position, the angle between the emission direction of at least part of the display light and the working surface is less than a first set angle, and when in the second position, the angle between the emission direction of at least part of the display light and the vertical plane is less than a second set angle. The first set angle and the second set angle can be pre-set specific values such as 10°, 20°, 30°, etc., and can be set as needed.
[0065] When the user puts the cleaning device back on the base or base station and the body 10 is in the first position, that is, in a basically upright state, since the angle between the emission direction of at least part of the display light and the working surface is smaller than the first set angle, it is convenient for the user to observe the specific status of the cleaning device from a distance, thereby avoiding the need for the user to walk near the body to specifically observe the display screen set on the top surface of the body.
[0066] When the body 10 is in the second position, that is, in a lying flat or nearly lying flat state, since the angle between the emission direction of at least part of the display light and the vertical plane is smaller than the second set angle, it is convenient for the user to observe the specific status of the cleaning device from above the body of the cleaning device.
[0067] Specifically, such as Figures 3 to 5As shown, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, the display assembly 11 includes at least a light-emitting unit 113 and a light guide 114. The light-emitting unit 113 is configured to emit display light to the light guide 114, and the light guide 114 is configured to transmit the display light emitted by the light-emitting unit 113 to its own outer contour surface to emit display light. In this way, during the operation of the display assembly 11 of the present disclosure, the light-emitting unit 113 can emit display light to the light guide 114, and the light guide 114 transmits the display light emitted by the light-emitting unit 113 to its own outer contour surface to emit display light. It can be understood that the light guide 114 and the light-emitting unit 113 as a whole can form a surface light source, and the first display area 111 and the second display area 112 each correspond to different parts of the outer contour of the light guide 114.
[0068] Among them, Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, a mounting groove 1143 is provided on the top of the light guide 114, and the light emitting unit 113 is configured to be disposed in the mounting groove 1143. That is, the mounting groove 1143 is provided on the top of the light guide 114, and the light emitting unit 113 is disposed in the mounting groove 1143, and the entire light guide 114 is not exposed. This ensures that the user cannot see the specific light emitting unit 113 from the side, and can only see a soft and uniform lighting effect, effectively improving the user's visual experience.
[0069] Specifically, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the light-emitting unit 113 can be an LED lamp board, on which LED lamp beads are arranged, and the LED lamp beads are arranged at positions corresponding to the mounting grooves 1143 to ensure that the light-emitting unit 113 can be located in the mounting grooves 1143.
[0070] Further, such as Figure 3 、 Figure 6 and Figure 6 As shown, the display assembly 11 further includes a decorative cover 115 disposed on top of the light-emitting unit 113 and the light guide 114. The decorative cover 115 ensures that the light-emitting unit 113 cannot be observed from the top surface, thereby ensuring that the user cannot see the specific light-emitting unit 113 from the top and the sides, and can only see a soft and uniform lighting effect, further effectively improving the user's visual experience. It is understood that in another embodiment of the present disclosure, the decorative cover 115 can also be a light-transmitting member. The light-emitting unit disposed away from the decorative cover 115 can form a display area that is transparent to the decorative cover 115 through reflection formed in the mounting groove 1143. This display area forms an annular display area on the top surface of the fuselage 10.
[0071] Specifically, such as Figure 2As shown, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, the light guide 114 has a top end 1141 and a bottom end 1142 extending along the axial direction of the body 10. The light guide 114 is configured to extend outward from the top end 1141 to the bottom end 1142, such that the distance between the top end 1141 and the central axis of the body 10 is smaller than the distance between the bottom end 1142 and the central axis of the body 10. Since the light guide 114 has the top end 1141 and the bottom end 1142 extending along the axial direction of the body 10, and extends outward from the top end 1141 to the bottom end 1142, such that the distance between the top end 1141 and the central axis of the body 10 is smaller than the distance between the bottom end 1142 and the central axis of the body 10, the light guide 114 can be ensured to expand outward from the top end 1141 to the bottom end 1142, thereby forming the first display area 111 and the second display area 112 described above.
[0072] like Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, the angle between the extension direction of the light guide 114 from the top end 1141 to the bottom end 1142 and the plane perpendicular to the axis of the fuselage 10 does not exceed 90 degrees. Since the angle between the extension direction of the light guide 114 from the top end 1141 to the bottom end 1142 and the plane perpendicular to the axis of the fuselage 10 does not exceed 90 degrees, it can be ensured that the light guide 114 gradually expands and extends from the top end 1141 to the bottom end 1142, thereby simultaneously forming the above-mentioned first display area 111 and second display area 112. Figure 2 As shown in FIG. 1 , in one embodiment of the present disclosure, the light guide 114 is configured to have a thickness that gradually decreases from the top end 1141 to the bottom end 1142. Figure 2 As shown, by gradually reducing the thickness of the light guide 114 from the top 1141 to the bottom 1142, the brightness of the light displayed in the first display area 111 of the light guide 114 can be continuously reduced from the top 1141 to the bottom 1142, achieving a gradual change effect from bright to dark from the top 1141 to the bottom 1142 of the light guide 114. This gradual change effect is achieved solely by the thickness change of the light guide 114, eliminating the need for a separate gradual change spraying process, and preventing light leakage, so that the user cannot see the specific light-emitting unit 113. At the same time, the length of the first display area 111 can be increased in the axial direction of the fuselage, which also facilitates user observation.
[0073] like Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, the outer contour of the light guide 114 is a smooth arc. This smooth arc allows the light guide 114 to achieve a more uniform and gentle gradient from light to dark, while ensuring that the outer contour of the light guide 114 can be used to form the first display area 111 and the second display area 112. In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the outer contour of the light guide 114 can also be a smooth conical surface or other shape, and can also simultaneously form the first display area 111 and the second display area 112, without limitation.
[0074] Similarly, in another embodiment of the present disclosure, the light guide 114 can also extend toward the decorative cover 115 to form a convex portion (not shown), and the convex portion is annular in the circumferential direction. The light emitted upward through the annular convex portion of the light guide can form an annular display area on the top surface of the fuselage 10.
[0075] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, the first display area 111 is arranged in a circular pattern along the circumference of the body 10, emitting display light in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the body 10 toward the periphery; the second display area 112 is arranged in a circular pattern. Because the first display area 111 is arranged in a circular pattern along the circumference of the body 10, and the second display area 112 is circular and emits display light in the positive axial direction of the body 10, the user can see the display light emitted by the first display area 111 and the second display area 112 from the periphery of the body 10.
[0076] In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the first display area 111 and the second display area 112 may also be provided only on the front side of the body 10 , or on the front side and the left and right sides, which is not limited here.
[0077] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, the light guide 114 is configured to be circumferentially arranged on the outer peripheral surface of the body 10. When the light guide 114 is circumferentially arranged on the outer peripheral surface of the body 10, the first display area 111 can be arranged in a circular manner along the circumference of the body 10 to emit display light toward the periphery in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the body 10, and the second display area 112 is annular. The second display area 112 facilitates user use when the user is not in the second position, that is, when the body is tilted but not lying flat or at a near-flat angle, and the user's field of view is located diagonally above the tilted body axis. The user can view the information displayed in the second display area 112 along the body axis toward the top of the body.
[0078] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, the mounting groove 1143 is annular, and the light-emitting units 113 are constructed to be evenly arranged at various locations of the mounting groove 1143. Since the mounting groove 1143 is annular, the light-emitting units 113 are constructed to be evenly arranged at various locations of the mounting groove 1143, which can ensure that the brightness of the display component 11 in various circumferential directions is relatively uniform, thereby effectively improving the display effect and making it more beautiful.
[0079] In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the mounting groove 1143 is annular, and the light-emitting unit 113 can also be partially annular, so that the first display area 111 and the second display area 112 can also be arranged only on the front side of the body 10, or on the front side and the left and right sides.
[0080] like Figures 2 to 6 As shown, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, the display assembly 11 further includes a light-transmitting housing 116, which is disposed on the outside of the light guide 114. The display light emitted by the light guide 114 is configured to be emitted to the outside through the light-transmitting housing 116. Since the light-transmitting housing 116 is disposed on the outside of the light guide 114, the display light emitted by the light guide 114 is emitted to the outside through the light-transmitting housing 116, which can make the lighting effect of the display assembly 11 softer and provide a better visual experience. In addition, since the gradient effect of the display assembly 11 of the present disclosure is achieved only by the thickness change of the light guide 114, there is no need to perform gradient spraying on the light-transmitting housing 116.
[0081] It is understandable that the cleaning device of the present disclosure can transmit information to the user only through light, without using a screen. In another embodiment of the present disclosure, Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, a first function display screen 12 is provided on the top surface of the body 10. Similarly, as Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, a second function display screen 31 is provided on the handle 30. The first function display screen 12 on the top surface of the body 10 and the second function display screen 31 provided on the handle 30 can both display partial information, thereby ensuring that the cleaning device of the present disclosure can simultaneously convey information to the user through the light and the screen.
[0082] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the present disclosure also provides a cleaning device, which includes a body 10 and a floor brush assembly 20; the floor brush assembly 20 is configured to clean a work surface, and the body 10 is constructed to be able to rotate relative to the floor brush assembly 20 to be in a lying state; a display assembly 11 is provided on the outer side of the top of the body 10, and the display direction of at least a part of the area of the display assembly 11 is configured to form an angle with the axis of the body 10.
[0083] Since the display direction of the display component 11 forms an angle with the axis of the body 10, the cleaning device disclosed herein effectively optimizes the user's viewing angle, ensuring that the user can observe the display status of the display component 11 from multiple viewing angles, effectively improving the user's usage experience.
[0084] like Figures 1 to 6As shown, the present disclosure also provides a cleaning device, including a body 10 and a floor brush assembly 20; the floor brush assembly 20 is configured to clean a work surface; a display assembly 11 is provided on the top of the body 10, and the display assembly 11 includes a light guide 114, and the light guide 114 is constructed to gradually extend outward from the top end of the light guide 114 to the bottom end of the light guide 114.
[0085] Since the display component 11 includes a light guide 114, the light guide 114 is constructed to gradually extend outward from the top end of the light guide 114 to the bottom end of the light guide 114, so that the display component 11 can form a first display area 111 displayed in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the fuselage 10 and a second display area 112 displayed in a direction along the axis of the fuselage 10.
[0086] The cleaning device disclosed herein effectively optimizes the user's viewing angle, ensuring that the user can observe the first display area 111 displayed in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the fuselage 10 and the second display area 112 displayed in a direction along the axis of the fuselage 10 formed by the light guide 114, whether in use or not, or at any angle, and observe the display status of the display component 11, avoiding the problem of not being able to understand the cleaning status when it is difficult to view the display area set on the top surface of the fuselage, thereby effectively improving the user experience.
[0087] Application Scenario
[0088] The present disclosure provides a cleaning device, which includes at least a body 10 and a floor brush assembly 20; the floor brush assembly 20 is configured to clean a work surface, and the body 10 is constructed to rotate relative to the floor brush assembly 20 between a first position and a second position, and the angle between the body 10 and the work surface when in the first position is greater than the angle between the body 10 and the work surface when in the second position.
[0089] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a display assembly 11 is provided on the top of the fuselage 10 , and the display assembly 11 includes a first display area 111 displayed in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the fuselage 10 and a second display area 112 displayed in a direction along the axis of the fuselage 10 .
[0090] In this way, during the use of the cleaning device of the present disclosure, the user can hold the cleaning device of the present disclosure and move it on the work surface to use the floor brush assembly 20 to clean the work surface. In the process of moving the cleaning device, the body 10 can be controlled by the user's action to rotate relative to the floor brush assembly 20 between the first position and the second position. Since the angle between the body 10 and the work surface when it is in the first position is greater than the angle between the body 10 and the work surface when it is in the second position, the body 10 is in a flat or nearly flat position when it is in the second position, which is convenient for cleaning low places such as seats and sofas. After the user completes the cleaning work, the user can put the cleaning device back to the base or base station for charging or self-cleaning, etc. At this time, the body 10 is in the first position, that is, in a basically upright state.
[0091] A display assembly 11 is disposed on top of the body 10. The display assembly 11 includes a first display area 111 that displays images perpendicular to the axis of the body 10 and a second display area 112 that displays images along the axis of the body 10. When the body 10 is in the first position, the angle between the emission direction of at least part of the display light from the first display area 111 and the working surface is relatively small. When the body 10 is in the second position, the angle between the emission direction of at least part of the display light and the vertical surface is also relatively small. The display light from the second display area 112 is always directed upward along the axis of the body 10.
[0092] The display assembly 11 can control the first display area 111 to display different colors, patterns, or text based on the state of the cleaning device. Thus, when the user places the cleaning device back on the base or base station and the body 10 is in the first position, i.e., in a substantially upright position, the angle between the emission direction of at least part of the display light and the working surface is relatively small, making it easier for the user to observe the specific state of the cleaning device from a distance, thereby eliminating the need for the user to walk close to the body to specifically observe the display screen located on the top surface of the body.
[0093] During general use of the cleaning device of the present invention, the user holds the cleaning device of the present invention and moves it on the work surface. The body 10 is in a basically upright state. When cleaning the work surface, the user can obtain the state of the cleaning device by observing the second display area 112.
[0094] In the scenario where the existing cleaning equipment is in a flat position, the top surface of the body is perpendicular or nearly perpendicular to the working surface. At this time, the user's field of view is on the vertical upper side of the flat body. The user looks down at the flat body. At this time, the user's line of sight is parallel or nearly parallel to the top surface of the body, and the user cannot observe the cleaning progress or other function displays displayed on the screen on the top surface of the body.
[0095] To avoid the above problems, when the user uses the cleaning device, in order to facilitate cleaning low places such as seats and under sofas, the body 10 is in the second position, that is, it is in a lying flat or nearly lying flat state. Since the angle between the emission direction of at least part of the display light and the vertical plane is small, it is convenient for the user to observe the specific status of the cleaning device from above the body of the cleaning device.
[0096] The first display area 111 and the second display area 112 will display the cleaning progress of the floor brush assembly 20 on the current working surface. By changing the color, pattern or text of the first display area 111 and the second display area 112, the user is reminded whether the current working surface has been cleaned or other information, so that the user can control the cleaning progress. Specifically, the display assembly 11 can control the first display area 111 and the second display area 112 to display different colors to reflect the degree of dirtiness of the currently cleaned area. In this way, when the user is cleaning low places such as seats and under sofas, the degree of dirtiness of the cleaned area can be indirectly obtained by the color displayed in the first display area 111, thereby ensuring that the low areas are cleaned before cleaning other areas, preventing dirt in the low areas from not being cleaned and omissions from occurring, thereby avoiding the situation where the fuselage is too close to the ground when cleaning low areas, causing the user's field of vision to be directly above the fuselage, and it is difficult to view the blind spot of the display area on the top surface of the fuselage.
[0097] After the cleaning device is placed on the base or base station, the display component 11 can display different colors according to the control of the first display area 111 to indicate whether the charging process or the self-cleaning process is completed. The user can observe from a distance whether the cleaning device is charged or self-cleaning is completed, thereby facilitating the user to remove the cleaning device from the base or base station and continue cleaning without the need for the user to walk to the cleaning device to check the function progress on the display screen on the top surface of the body.
[0098] It can be seen that the cleaning device disclosed herein effectively optimizes the user's viewing angle, ensuring that the user can observe the display status of the display component 11 whether in use or not, or at any angle, avoiding the problem of not being able to understand the cleaning status when it is difficult to view the display area set on the top surface of the fuselage, and effectively improving the user's experience.
[0099] Specifically, the outer peripheral contour of the top of the fuselage 10 serves as a display area, thereby expanding the user's viewing angle for the cleaning information of the cleaning device, so that the user can observe the display information no matter at which angle and no matter what state the fuselage 10 is in. For example, when the fuselage 10 is lying flat for work, even if the user's line of sight is parallel to the top surface of the fuselage, the cleaning information of the cleaning device can be understood through the display area on the top periphery of the fuselage 10; when the fuselage 10 is tilted for use, the user's line of sight can view the information displayed on the top of the fuselage 10 along the axial direction of the fuselage, for example, through the second display area 112 to view the information displayed on the top of the fuselage 10.
[0100] The embodiments of the present disclosure have been described above. The above description is exemplary, not exhaustive, and is not limited to the disclosed embodiments. Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art without departing from the scope and spirit of the described embodiments.
