Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of floor cleaning equipment, in particular to a cleaning equipment with a dust sweeping function. Background Art

[0002] Floor cleaning equipment mainly includes conventional mops, steam mops, floor brushes and sweeping robots. In order to cover a wider range and clean better, most floor cleaning equipment uses a double-turntable mopping component, which is arranged side by side at the bottom of the equipment body and designed to rotate in opposite directions to maintain balance. This causes dust and stains to gather between the double turntables during operation, and pushes solid dust and stains or hair forward when the equipment body moves forward.

[0003] Taking mops as an example, mops or steam mops are mainly used to wipe the floor to achieve the purpose of cleaning. However, after wiping the dirt, the steam mop still pushes solid dust or hair forward. Its defect of not being able to collect solid dust and hair makes it difficult for consumers to accept it as easily as cleaning tools such as floor scrubbers and vacuum cleaners.

[0004] Refer to Chinese patent application number CN218773813U, which discloses a steam mop with suction and sweeping function. With its dust collection function, it is no longer a pure steam mop, but a combination of a steam mop and a vacuum cleaner. Furthermore, the rolling broom sweeps dust backward into the dust collection chamber. Without the dust collection function, when the user lifts the mop, the handle leans back, causing the mop's center of gravity to tilt forward, causing the swept dust to be dumped out again. Therefore, how to conveniently sweep dust without suction is a key issue that needs to be addressed. Utility Model Content

[0035] Figure 9 for Figure 8 A partial enlarged view of . DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0036] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of the present invention easier to understand, the following embodiments are combined with the accompanying drawings to explain the present invention in detail. Figure 3 The direction from top to bottom shown on the paper is the direction from back to front in this embodiment, and the left and right directions shown on the paper are the left and right directions in this embodiment. Figure 2 The mark a shown in the figure is the dust gathering direction, and b is the mop rotation direction.

[0037] See Figures 1 to 9 As shown in the figure, the cleaning device with a dust sweeping function provided in this embodiment includes a device body 2, a drive assembly 206 is provided inside the device body 2, and a double-turntable mopping member 205 is provided at the bottom thereof. The device body 2 also includes a transmission assembly 208 that simultaneously transmits and connects the drive assembly 206 and the mopping member 205, and the transmission assembly 208 and the drive assembly 206 cause the double turntables of the mopping member 205 to rotate toward each other. The cleaning device with a dust sweeping function also includes a side sweep assembly 1, which includes:

[0038] The housing 400 is mounted on the front face of the device body 2 and has a dust storage chamber 404 and a accommodating chamber 406 at least partially open downwardly formed therein. A dust outlet 403 is further formed between the accommodating chamber 406 and the dust storage chamber 404.

[0039] The dust sweeping member 5 includes a rotating member extending in the forward and backward direction and capable of rotating circumferentially around its own axis, a broom brush 501 extending in the radial direction and disposed on the rotating member, and the rotating member is transmission-connected to the driving assembly 206;

[0040] In addition, the front position between the double turntables forms a dust collection area 409 adjacent to the lower open end of the accommodating chamber 406. The double turntables can collect dust in the dust collection area 409, and the broom brush 501 sends the dust in the dust collection area 409 into the dust storage chamber 404 through the accommodating chamber 406 and the dust outlet 403.

[0041] Based on the above technical solution, the cleaning device with a dust sweeping function includes a device body 2, a mopping component 205, a transmission component 208, and a side sweeping component 1. The side sweeping component 1 includes a shell 400 and a dust sweeping component 5. The dust sweeping component 5 includes a rotating part extending in the forward and backward directions and a broom brush 501. The shell 400 comprises a dust collection chamber 404 and a accommodating chamber 406 that are connected. The mopping component 205 can gather dust in the dust gathering area 409, and the broom brush 501 can send it into the dust collection chamber 404 through the accommodating chamber 406, so that all the dust in front can be smoothly swept into the dust collection chamber 404, and the collected dust is not easy to fall out. At the same time, it can be quickly disassembled and assembled. After installation, whether pushed forward or backward, the side sweeping component 1 will not affect the normal walking and use of the device body 2.

[0042] In a preferred embodiment, see Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown in , the side sweep assembly 1 also includes a rotatable transmission shaft 202 mounted in the device body 2. One end of the transmission shaft 202 is connected to the drive assembly 206 or the transmission assembly 208, while the other end extends into the housing 400 and is axially connected to the dust sweeping member 5. Furthermore, the drive assembly 206 includes a motor, and the transmission assembly 208 includes an output gear mounted on the outside of the motor shaft 207 and a multi-stage gear set that meshes with the output gear. The multi-stage gear set drives the dual turntables of the mopping member 205 to rotate in opposite directions (i.e., in opposite directions to achieve the purpose of collecting dust in the dust collection area 409). The transmission shaft 202 is axially connected to one end of the motor shaft 207, or it can also be axially connected to the output gear. Alternatively, the motor shaft is configured as a worm gear structure, and the transmission shaft 202 is configured as a portion of the worm gear, with the outer periphery of the worm gear structure serving as the output gear.

[0043] In a preferred embodiment, combined Figures 5 to 7 As shown in FIG, the rotating member includes a rear rotating portion 502 for pivotally connecting to the transmission shaft 202 and a front rotating portion 503 for accommodating a broom brush 501. The minimum outer diameter of the front rotating portion 503 is greater than the maximum outer diameter of the rear rotating portion 502. Furthermore, the broom brush 501 includes at least one group of bristles radially arranged on the front rotating portion 503. In this embodiment, the broom brush is arranged as a single group, but multiple groups can also be arranged evenly around the circumference, and the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0044] As a further preferred embodiment, the rear rotating portion 502 is generally cylindrical and has a rearward-opening docking groove 504 for mating with the drive shaft 202. Furthermore, the front rotating portion 503 is generally truncated into a cone-shaped structure, smaller in front and larger in the back. The outer edge of the front rotating portion 503 is formed with a radially extending extension portion 505 for inserting a brush. The mounting surface of the broom brush 501 is an inclined surface. When hair is entangled on it, the inclined surface automatically causes the hair to fall off forward.

[0045] As a further preferred embodiment, two dust collection chambers 404 are provided, one on each side of the accommodating chamber 406, and two dust passages 403 are provided on the adjacent walls of the dust collection chamber 404 and the accommodating chamber 406 to allow dust within the accommodating chamber 406 to enter the dust collection chamber 404. Furthermore, the cross-section of the accommodating chamber 406 is circular and coaxial with the transmission shaft 202, and the inner diameter of the accommodating chamber 406 is no less than the outer diameter of the rotation path of the broom brush 501. Alternatively, the cross-section of the accommodating chamber 406 is circular and coaxial with the transmission shaft 202, the inner diameter of the accommodating chamber 406 is no greater than the outer diameter of the rotation path of the broom brush 501, and the bristles of the broom brush 501 are made of a flexible material to prevent dust from falling through the gap between the bristles and the inner wall of the accommodating chamber 406.

[0046] In actual application, whether the bristles directly contact the inner wall of the accommodating cavity 406 can be determined based on specific demands. Using a brush with hard bristles and leaving a small gap between the end and the inner wall of the accommodating cavity 406 can also reduce the rotational resistance and meet the cleaning purpose.

[0047] As a further preferred embodiment, both dust outlets 403 are formed on the wall between the accommodating chamber 406 and the dust storage chamber 404, and are arranged in a position adjacent to the upper open end of the housing 400. The lower open end of the accommodating chamber 406 is formed in a position adjacent to the dust accumulation area 409. This allows the dust to flow along the wall of the accommodating chamber 406 and the dust outlets 403 into the dust storage chamber 404 under the action of the broom brush 501, and the dust is not easy to fall out of the dust storage chamber 404 after falling into the dust storage chamber 404. Furthermore, the upper open end of the housing 400 is also detachably mounted with an upper cover 6, and dust outlets 408 are formed on the left and right sides of the upper cover 6, which are arranged opposite to the two dust storage chambers 404. After the side sweeper assembly 1 is detached, the upper cover 6 can be turned over to pour out the dust in the dust storage chamber 404.

[0048] In a preferred embodiment, combined Figure 6 、 Figure 8 and Figure 9As shown in the figure, the side sweep assembly 1 is detachably connected to the front end of the device body 2, and the dust sweeping member 5 is rotatably mounted in the housing 400 via a bearing 7. Furthermore, a forwardly open connection seat 203 is formed on the side of the device body 2 facing the side sweep assembly 1, and at least two limiting grooves 204 are provided on the inner side wall of the connection seat 203. The housing 400 is provided with a clip 401 on the side facing the device body 2, which is equal in number to the limiting grooves 204 and positioned opposite to each other, for detachably assembling the side sweep assembly 1 through the matching clips 401 and limiting grooves 204. Specifically, the number of limiting grooves 204 and the number of clips 401 are both two, arranged opposite to each other in an upper and lower direction, and the purpose of installation and removal is achieved based on the elasticity of the plastic part itself. Specifically, the rear side surface of the housing 400 extends in the rear direction to form two upper and lower brackets, and the two clips 401 are respectively protruded from the brackets. Furthermore, the side of the shell 400 facing the device body 2 also has a limiting rib 405 that is adapted to the inner wall of the connecting seat 203, so as to prevent the limiting rib 405 from moving left and right after it is inserted into the connecting seat 203.

[0049] In a preferred embodiment, the device body 2 is a mop assembly, and a steam module is also provided in the mop assembly, and the steam nozzle 201 of the steam module is provided at the front end of the mop assembly adjacent to the side sweep assembly 1 to achieve the functions of wet mopping and steam sweeping. In this embodiment, there are two steam nozzles 201, each of which sprays toward the ground in front of the rotating mop. They can also be provided above the rotating mop to spray directly toward the mop, making the mop hot and humid. These two steam release methods are currently mainstream in the market and are not the focus of this patent. In addition, the device body 2 in this embodiment can also be a floor brush, a sweeping robot, an ordinary mop, etc., all of which can be applied to the above-mentioned side sweep assembly 1, but are not limited thereto.

[0050] As a further preferred embodiment, Figure 2 and Figure 9 As shown in FIG, the front side of the housing 400 adjacent to the ground is further formed with dust guiding slopes 407 on both sides, and Figure 2 From the upward perspective shown, the two dust guiding slopes 407 are arranged in an inverted hook shape, so that when the dual turntables of the mopping component 205 rotate towards each other, the dust on both sides of the front is thrown toward the middle and gathered in the dust gathering area 409 along the dust guiding slopes 407.

[0051] It is worth noting that the above-mentioned drive assembly 206 (the output gear on the motor and its motor shaft 207), the transmission assembly 208 (the multi-stage gear set), the double-disc mopping component 205 (with a mop at the bottom), the steam module (including a steam generator, a steam delivery pipe, a steam nozzle 201), and the controller and power supply (or an external AC power cord) configured in the device body 2 are all known to those skilled in the art based on existing public knowledge, so detailed description is omitted here.

[0052] In specific applications, the side sweeping assembly 1 mainly includes a shell 400 and a dust sweeping component 5. The dust sweeping component 5 is installed in the middle of the shell 400. In order to ensure stable rotation of the dust sweeping component 5, a bearing 7 is also provided between the dust sweeping component 5 and the shell 400. The broom brush 501 of the dust sweeping component 5 circulates in the dust sweeping track of the accommodating chamber 406 (the inner wall of the accommodating chamber 406), sweeping the dust at the bottom to one side, and reaching the dust port 403 along the dust sweeping track, and finally reaching the dust accumulation chamber 404. The upper part of the dust accumulation chamber 404 is open, and dust can be poured out from the top. An upper cover 6 is also provided to prevent dust from overflowing during cleaning. The rotating part is fixedly installed with the inner ring of the bearing 7, and the docking groove 504 is directly connected to the rotating shaft of the side sweeping assembly 1 through a non-circular sleeve. The rotating shaft is sleeved on the motor shaft 207, so that the broom brush 501 can rotate with the motor shaft 207. The mounting surface of the broom brush 501 is an inclined surface. When hair is entangled on it, the inclined surface automatically causes the hair to fall off forward. The power provided by the motor and motor shaft 207 in the steam mop provides kinetic energy for the central broom to rotate along the Z axis. The rotating mops on both sides then gather dust from the front to the central portion, allowing all dust in the front to reach the side sweep assembly 1. The central broom, which continuously rotates, sweeps the gathered dust laterally into the dust collection chamber 404.

[0053] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is intended to be illustrative rather than restrictive of the present invention. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that many changes, modifications, and even equivalents may be made to the present invention within the spirit and scope of the claims, and all of these changes will fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
