Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of robot equipment, in particular to a swimming pool robot capable of cleaning dead corners. Background Art

[0002] To meet the needs of swimming pool cleaning, swimming pool robots that can clean underwater have been widely used. Swimming pool robots in the existing technology usually use a filtering device to filter and clean the water, but relying solely on the filtering device cannot clean the surface of the swimming pool bottom or wall, as well as the deposited dirt in the corners and dead corners. Utility Model Content

[0003] The embodiment of the present utility model provides a swimming pool robot capable of cleaning dead corners, so as to solve the problem that swimming pool robots in the prior art can only filter and clean water but cannot handle deposited dirt on the bottom, walls and dead corners of the swimming pool.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0005] A swimming pool robot capable of cleaning blind spots, used for cleaning swimming pools, comprises a robot body, a filtering device disposed within the robot body, a water inlet disposed at the bottom of the robot body connected to the filtering device, a water outlet disposed at the side and / or top of the robot body, and a drive device disposed at the bottom of the robot body for driving the robot body to move along the wall and / or bottom of the swimming pool;

[0006] At least one scraping device is provided on the bottom and / or side of the robot body. The robot body has at least one side surface as a cleaning working surface. Each scraping device partially or completely extends outside one of the cleaning working surfaces.

[0007] When the swimming pool robot capable of cleaning blind spots moves with its cleaning working surface in contact with the pool wall and / or pool bottom, the scraping device extending from the corresponding cleaning working surface also in contact with the pool wall and / or pool bottom;

[0008] During the movement of the swimming pool robot capable of cleaning dead corners, the scraping device is used to scrape and clean the surface of the swimming pool wall and / or the pool bottom.

[0009] In an improved embodiment, the distance between the scraping device and the water inlet is ≤30 mm, or the distance between the closest point of the scraping device to the water inlet and the water inlet within the movement trajectory of the scraping device is ≤30 mm;

[0010] The dirt scraped off by the scraping device can be directly sucked into the water inlet and filtered through the filtering device, thereby reducing the secondary pollution caused by the dirt being scraped off and entering the water body.

[0011] In an improved embodiment, at least one rotating wheel is provided at the bottom of the robot body, and the scraping device is fixedly provided on the circumference of the rotating wheel;

[0012] The rotating wheel is installed close to the cleaning working surface of the robot body, so that when the rotating wheel rotates, the movement trajectory range of the scraping device can extend to the outside of one of the cleaning working surfaces; the rotation of the rotating wheel improves the scraping cleaning effect, and the scraping device is arranged on the rotating wheel instead of directly on the robot body, which also facilitates the disassembly and installation of the scraping device.

[0013] In a further improved embodiment, the rotating wheel is a non-powered universal wheel, which can achieve blind spot cleaning. During the movement of the swimming pool robot, the rotating wheel will rotate irregularly due to the influence of the water body, so that the contact angle between the scraping device and the surface to be cleaned can be changed, thereby improving the cleaning effect.

[0014] In a further improved embodiment, motors corresponding to the number of rotating wheels are installed under the robot body. The output end of each motor is connected to a rotating wheel and drives the rotating wheel to rotate. The scraping strength of the scraping device on the surface to be cleaned is increased by the drive of the motor, thereby improving the cleaning effect.

[0015] In an improved embodiment, the driving device is a traveling track arranged at the bottom of the robot body. The side of the robot body close to the traveling track is not used as the cleaning working surface. The traveling track is provided for driving, which can greatly improve the passability of the swimming pool robot that can achieve blind spot cleaning.

[0016] In an improved embodiment, the driving device is a traveling track arranged on both sides of the bottom of the robot body. The side of the robot body close to the traveling track serves as the cleaning working surface. The scraping device is fixed to the outside of the traveling track. The traveling track is set for driving, which can greatly improve the passability of the swimming pool robot that can achieve blind spot cleaning.

[0017] In an improved embodiment, the driving device is a traveling wheel, which is arranged at the bottom of the robot body and has at least three traveling wheels. By driving the traveling wheels, while ensuring the movement ability of the swimming pool robot to clean dead corners, the position layout of the driving device can be prevented from interfering with the position layout of the scraping device.

[0018] In a further improved embodiment, the scraping device is mounted on the traveling wheel through a ring and can slide relative to the traveling wheel. The scraping device is directly mounted on the traveling wheel through the ring so that it can rotate independently of the movement of the traveling wheel, thereby improving the flexibility of scraping and cleaning.

[0019] In a further improved embodiment, the scraping device is fixedly arranged on the circumference of the traveling wheel, thereby ensuring a higher scraping force.

[0020] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0021] The swimming pool robot capable of cleaning dead corners provided by the utility model is provided with a special scraping device, so that when the swimming pool robot capable of cleaning dead corners moves along the bottom / wall of the swimming pool, the scraping device can be used to scrape and clean the surface of the bottom / wall of the swimming pool, as well as the edges and corners of the swimming pool.

[0028] The following describes the specific embodiments of the present application in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present application and are not intended to limit the present application.

[0029] like Figure 1-4 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a swimming pool robot capable of cleaning dead corners, which is used for cleaning swimming pools. The robot body 1 includes a robot body 1, a filtering device is provided inside the robot body 1, a water inlet 2 connected to the filtering device is provided at the bottom of the robot body 1, and a water outlet 3 is provided on the side and / or top of the robot body 1. The bottom of the robot body 1 is also provided with a driving device, which is used to drive the robot body 1 to move on the wall and / or bottom of the swimming pool (the driving device is a prior art, which only provides a driving effect when the robot body 1 contacts the wall and / or bottom of the swimming pool. In the prior art, the reaction force generated by the water spraying from the water outlet 3 can make the robot body 1 fit into the wall of the swimming pool).

[0030] The swimming pool robot capable of cleaning dead corners can make water in the water body pass through the water inlet 2, the filter device and the water outlet 3 in sequence, and use the filtering effect of the filter device to clean the water body, wherein the specific structure of the filter device is the existing technology.

[0031] At least one scraping device 4 is provided at the bottom of the robot body 1. The robot body 1 has at least one side surface as a cleaning working surface. Each scraping device 4 partially or completely extends outward from one of the cleaning working surfaces (understandably, it also extends beyond the range formed by the side of the robot body 1). When the swimming pool robot that can achieve dead-angle cleaning moves with the cleaning working surface in contact with the pool wall and / or the bottom of the pool, the scraping device 4 also conforms to the pool wall and / or the bottom of the pool. The scraping device 4 is used to contact and scrape the surface to be cleaned to clean it (materials suitable for the scraping device 4 include brushes, rubber strips, etc.).

[0032] As a further improvement of the present invention, considering that the swimming pool robot capable of cleaning dead corners can also use the water inlet 2 to absorb water in the swimming pool for filtering and cleaning, in order to ensure that the dirt scraped by the scraping device 4 can be directly absorbed by the water inlet 2 as much as possible, thereby reducing the possibility of the dirt being scraped off the pool bottom and / or pool wall and re-entering the water in the swimming pool to cause secondary pollution, the distance between the scraping device 4 and the water inlet 2 is ≤30mm. Specifically, in an embodiment in which the relative position of the scraping device 4 and the robot body 1 is fixed, the distance between the installation position of the scraping device 4 and the water inlet 2 is ≤30 mm; in an embodiment in which the relative position of the scraping device 4 and the robot body 1 is variable (for example, the scraping device 4 is installed on other mechanisms that are installed in conjunction with the robot body 1, and is not directly installed on the robot body 1), the movement trajectory range of the scraping device 4 can extend to within the range of the water inlet 2, or the distance between the nearest point close to the water inlet 2 in the movement trajectory range of the scraping device 4 and the water inlet 2 is ≤30 mm, so that the dirt scraped off by the scraping device 4 can be directly sucked into the water inlet 2 and filtered and processed by the filtering device.

[0033] In one specific embodiment, the bottom of the robot body 1 is provided with at least one rotatable rotating wheel 6, and the scraping device 4 is fixedly mounted on the circumference of the rotating wheel 6. In addition, the rotating wheel 6 is mounted near the cleaning working surface of the robot body 1, so that during the rotation of the rotating wheel 6, the movement trajectory of the scraping device 4 can extend to the outside of one of the cleaning working surfaces (understandably, it also extends to the area outside the range enclosed by the side of the robot body 1). That is, when the pool robot capable of cleaning blind spots moves near the edge of the pool, the scraping device 4 can contact the edge of the pool and clean it without the robot body 1 being in close contact with the edge, thereby enabling the pool robot capable of cleaning blind spots to clean blind spots in the pool.

[0034] Specifically, in Figure 1-2 In the illustrated embodiment, the drive device utilizes rolling travel wheels 51, which are arranged at the bottom of the robot body 1 and are provided with at least three of them. Because these travel wheels 51 occupy a relatively small space and do not interfere with the installation and arrangement of the rotating wheels 6 at the bottom of the robot body 1, each side of the robot body 1 can serve as a cleaning work surface. Multiple rotating wheels 6 can be provided, each positioned adjacent to each cleaning work surface of the robot body 1, enabling the pool robot to clean blind spots from all sides, providing greater flexibility. The rotation of the rotating wheels 6 enhances the scraping and cleaning effect, and the placement of the scraping device 4 on the rotating wheels 6 rather than directly on the robot body 1 also facilitates removal and installation of the scraping device 4.

[0035] exist Figure 3 In the embodiment shown, the driving device adopts a traveling track 52. Since the arrangement of the traveling track 52 will occupy the two parallel sides of the bottom of the robot body 1, in this embodiment, only the side of the robot body 1 away from the traveling track 52 can be used as the cleaning working surface (that is, the side of the robot body 1 close to the traveling track 52 is not used as the cleaning working surface). A plurality of rotating wheels 6 can also be provided, and they are respectively close to each cleaning working surface of the robot body 1. In this embodiment, the cleaning working surface is reduced, but the traveling track 52 greatly improves the passability of the swimming pool robot that can achieve blind spot cleaning.

[0036] In order to minimize the manufacturing cost while meeting the cleaning technical effect, in a specific embodiment, the rotating wheel 6 is designed as a non-powered universal wheel, which can realize the pool robot cleaning dead corners. During the movement, especially when moving along the edge of the pool, the rotating wheel 6 will rotate irregularly due to the influence of the water body, so that the contact angle between the scraping device 4 and the surface to be cleaned can be changed, thereby improving the cleaning effect.

[0037] In order to improve the rotational cleaning effect of the scraping device 4 as much as possible, in a specific embodiment, motors corresponding to the number of rotating wheels 6 are installed under the robot body 1, and the output end of each motor is connected to a rotating wheel 6 and drives the rotating wheel 6 to rotate, so that the rotating wheel 6 can rotate stably and at a higher speed, thereby improving the scraping strength of the scraping device 4 on the surface to be cleaned and improving its cleaning effect.

[0038] Continuing to consider improving the efficiency of scraping and cleaning when the rotating wheels 6 come into contact with the edge of the swimming pool, in a more specific embodiment, each cleaning working surface of the robot body 1 corresponds to at least two rotating wheels 6, and the scraping devices 4 installed on the multiple rotating wheels 6 corresponding to a single cleaning working surface of the robot body 1 use different materials, and the cleaning work is efficiently performed through the combination of different materials.

[0039] In addition, in one embodiment, the bottom of the robot body 1 is not provided with a rotating wheel 6, and the scraping device 4 is directly arranged on the driving device, and the scraping device 4 is allowed to extend to the area outside the range enclosed by the side of the robot body 1 (in this case, the driving device should obviously also be installed close to the side of the robot body 1, and the side of the robot body 1 on which the driving device is installed or close to the side of the driving device can be used as a cleaning working surface, and the optional cleaning working surfaces are reduced); when the driving device uses a traveling wheel 51, the scraping device 4 can be fixedly connected to the traveling wheel 51 to obtain a higher scraping force, or it can be fixedly installed on the ring first and then be sleeved on the traveling wheel 51 through the ring, and it can slide relative to the traveling wheel 51 and rotate independently of the movement of the traveling wheel 51, thereby obtaining better scraping and cleaning flexibility; when the driving device uses a traveling track 52, the scraping device 4 is directly fixed to the outside of the traveling track 52.

[0040] like Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment, the bottom of the robot body 1 is not provided with a rotating wheel 6 , and the scraping device 4 is not installed relying on a driving device, and the scraping device 4 is directly installed on the bottom and / or side of the robot body 1 .

[0041] The swimming pool robot capable of cleaning dead corners provided by the present invention is provided with a special scraping device 4, so that when the swimming pool robot capable of cleaning dead corners moves along the bottom / wall of the swimming pool, the scraping device 4 can be used to scrape and clean the surface of the bottom / wall of the swimming pool, as well as the edges and corners of the swimming pool.

[0042] The above-described embodiments merely represent implementation methods of the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be noted that a person skilled in the art would be able to make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these modifications and improvements fall within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention shall be determined by the appended claims.
