DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] Exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein, with examples illustrated in the accompanying drawings. In the following description, when referring to the drawings, identical numerals in different figures represent identical or similar elements, unless otherwise indicated. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments are not intended to represent all possible embodiments consistent with the present invention. Rather, they are merely examples of devices or methods consistent with certain aspects of the present invention.

[0030] To make the purpose, technical solution, and advantages of the present invention more clear, the technical solution of the present invention will be described in detail below. Obviously, the embodiments described are only some of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other implementation methods obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0031] The following embodiments are described with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below do not limit the scope of the utility model as set forth in the claims. Furthermore, the entire contents of the configurations shown in the following embodiments are not necessarily required to serve as solutions to the utility model as set forth in the claims.

[0032] See also Figure 1-11The present invention provides a broom and dustpan assembly, comprising a broom 1 and a dustpan 2. The broom 1 comprises a broom head 12 and a broom handle 11, while the dustpan 2 comprises a dustpan bucket 22 and a dustpan handle 21. The dustpan handle 21 is a hollow rod structure with an open lower end. The dustpan handle 21 is longer than the broom handle 11, and a first, elongated opening 211 is provided on the sidewall of the dustpan handle 21 for the broom handle 11 to pass through. When the broom 1 and dustpan 2 are mated, the broom handle 11 is completely located within the dustpan handle 21.

[0033] When the broom 1 and dustpan 2 are in use, the broom handle 11 is located inside the dustpan handle 21. The broom handle and dustpan handle only occupy the space occupied by the dustpan handle, and the overall space occupied by the broom handle and dustpan handle is relatively small. Secondly, the length of the dustpan handle is longer than that of the broom handle, and the broom handle is completely located inside the dustpan handle. When moving the broom and dustpan assembly as a whole, the upper end of the dustpan handle can be grasped to move it.

[0034] Alternatively, see Figure 2 The upper end of the dustpan rod 21 is closed, and the height of the upper edge of the first opening 211 is less than the height of the upper end of the dustpan rod 21.

[0035] The upper end of the dustpan rod 21 is closed to prevent dust from falling into the dustpan rod 21. The height of the upper edge of the first opening 211 is less than the height of the upper end of the dustpan rod 21, which can appropriately enhance the strength of the dustpan rod 21.

[0036] Optionally, the dustpan 22 is a box structure with one side open, which is surrounded by a first top wall 221, a first bottom wall 222 and a first side wall 223. The first side wall 223 has three sides and can be surrounded by a rectangular shape, a cylindrical shape, or other irregular shapes. The length of the first bottom wall 222 is greater than the length of the first top wall 221. The length direction here refers to the vertical Figure 2 As viewed from the paper, the distance between the first bottom wall 222 and the first top wall 221 is greater than the height of the broom head 12. The first top wall 221 is provided with a second opening 224 for the broom shaft 11 to pass through. When the broom 1 and dustpan 2 are mated, the broom shaft 11 is located within the dustpan shaft 21, and the broom head 12 is located within the dustpan bucket 22. "The broom head 12 is located within the dustpan bucket 22" means that the broom head 12 is within the projection of the first top wall 221 onto the first bottom wall 222.

[0037] The broom head 12 is located in the dustpan 22, which can prevent the broom head 12 from dirtying other objects. When the residue of the broom head 12 falls, it will fall into the dustpan 22 and will not fall to the ground or other places.

[0038] When the broom 1 and dustpan 2 are mated, the broom handle 11 can rest against the inside of the dustpan handle 21. A connecting structure can also be provided between the broom 1 and dustpan 2 to ensure a strong connection between them. For example, the connecting structure can include setting the width of the first opening 211 to be smaller than the radial dimension of the broom handle 11. During mating, the broom handle 11 can be pressed, causing the dustpan handle 21 to elastically deform at the first opening 211, thereby squeezing the broom handle 11 through the first opening 211 and into the dustpan handle 21. To separate the broom 1 and dustpan 2, the broom handle 11 can be forcibly removed from the first opening 211 of the dustpan handle 21.

[0039] The connection structure can also be: a snap-fit ​​groove capable of elastic deformation is provided on the inner side wall of the dustpan rod 21, and the broom rod 11 is snap-fitted into the snap-fit ​​groove. Figure 3 and Figure 5 Two engaging slots 217 may be provided on the inner side wall of the dustpan rod 21 to form an engaging slot. A gap may be provided between the upper portion of the engaging slot 217 and the inner side wall of the dustpan rod 21 to form a second slot 215.

[0040] The connecting structure may also be a first magnet provided on the inner wall of the dustpan rod 21 and a second magnet provided on the outer wall of the broom rod 11 .

[0041] Optionally, a supporting structure is provided on the inner wall of the dustpan rod, and a hanging structure is provided on the outer wall of the broom rod, the supporting structure includes a supporting surface, and the hanging structure includes a hanging surface; when the broom and the dustpan are matched, the hanging surface is hung on the supporting surface.

[0042] In this way, when the broom and the dustpan are stored together, the broom is supported by the cooperation of the hanging surface and the supporting surface, and the broom head is no longer supported on the dustpan, thereby preventing the broom head from being bent and damaged.

[0043] Alternatively, see Figure 9-11 The supporting structure can be a bracket 219 provided on the inner sidewall of the dustpan rod 21, on both sides of the first opening 211. The attachment structure can be a groove provided on the sidewall of the broom rod 11. The groove can be an annular groove 116. The upper surface of the bracket 219 serves as the supporting surface, and the upper surface of the groove serves as the attachment surface. The radial dimension of the annular groove 116 can be less than or equal to the distance between the two brackets 219. In this way, the annular column portion of the annular groove 116 can be clamped between the inner sidewalls of the two brackets 219, thereby helping to increase the connection strength between the broom and the dustpan.

[0044] Alternatively, see Figure 2 A comb tooth structure 225 is provided at the front edge of the first top wall 221 , except for the second opening 224 .

[0045] During cleaning, some pollutants may adhere to the broom head 12 , and the broom head 12 can be combed out by the combing structure 225 to comb out the pollutants.

[0046] Alternatively, see Figure 1 The length of the first opening 211 is greater than the length of the broom rod 11 , and a first gap 14 for a finger to be inserted into is formed between the top of the broom rod 11 and the upper edge of the first opening 211 .

[0047] When the broom 1 needs to be separated from the dustpan 2 , the user can insert a finger into the first gap 14 , hold the upper end of the broom rod 11 , and take the broom rod 11 out.

[0048] Optionally, the dustpan bucket 22 and the dustpan rod 21 are split structures, see Figure 2-5 The dustpan 22 has a U-shaped first slot 226 at its upper end. The inner top wall of the first slot 226 is provided with a first guide groove 2261 and a third latching groove 2262. The third latching groove 2262 can be a through-slot. The outer periphery of the lower end of the dustpan rod 21 is provided with a first inserting block 218 that matches the first slot 226. The upper surface of the first inserting block 218 is provided with a limit block 2183 and a downwardly bendable third latching block 2181. Below the third latching block 2181 is a first groove 2182 that provides space for the third latching block 2181 to bend downward. The first groove 2182 can be a through-slot, and the third latching block 2181 can be wedge-shaped. When the first inserting block 218 is inserted into the first insertion slot 226, the third clamping block 2181 slides in along the first guide groove 2261, first bends downward, and partially enters the first groove 2182 when bending downward. When sliding to the third clamping groove 2262, the third clamping block 2181 recovers its deformation and is engaged in the third clamping groove 2262. At the same time, the limiting block 2183 also enters from the first guide groove 2261 and then engages with the first guide groove 2261, thereby forming a fixed connection between the dustpan 22 and the dustpan rod 21.

[0049] The dustpan bucket 22 and the dustpan rod 21 are set as a split structure. The dustpan bucket 22 and the dustpan rod 21 can be manufactured separately, for example, by injection molding, etc., which is relatively simple to manufacture and can be packaged and transported in a disassembled form during transportation, taking up little space and being easy to transport.

[0050] Alternatively, see Figure 2-5The dustpan rod 21 includes at least two first connecting rods, and the figure shows a case of three first connecting rods. The first connecting rods can be connected to each other by a first connecting structure. The two connecting rods are connected to each other at the connecting ends. One of the two connecting ends can be provided with a first connector, and the other can be provided with a second connector. The first connector and the second connector form a first connecting structure. The first connector includes a first elastic piece 212 and a first plug 214. There can be two first plugs 214, one of which is provided on both sides of the first elastic piece 212. A second block 213 is provided on the outer wall of the first elastic piece 212. Both the first elastic piece 212 and the first plug 214 extend along the length direction of the first connecting rod. The second connector includes a second slot 215, a third slot 2172, a second guide groove 2161, and a second slot 216 provided on the inner wall of the first connecting rod. The second slot 216 can be a through slot. When the two first connecting rods are connected, when the first connecting body is inserted into the second connecting body, the second clamping block 213 moves along the second guide groove 2161, and the first elastic piece 212 is elastically deformed. Then, the bottom of the first inserting piece 214 is inserted into the second slot 215, and the side of the first inserting piece 214 is inserted into the third slot 2172. The first elastic piece 212 returns to its original shape, and the second clamping block 213 is locked into the second clamping groove 216. In particular, a third slot piece 2171 can be provided on the inner side wall of the first connecting rod, and a gap is provided between the third slot piece 2171 and the inner side wall of the first connecting rod, thereby forming a third slot 2172.

[0051] Thus, the dustpan rod can be disassembled into at least two first connecting rod sections, and can be packaged and transported in a disassembled form during transportation, which occupies little space and is convenient for transportation.

[0052] Alternatively, see Figure 6-8 The broom rod 11 includes at least two second connecting rods. Figure 6 The figure shows a four-section second connecting rod. The second connecting rods are connected by a second connecting structure, which includes a third connector and a fourth connector, respectively, disposed at the connecting ends of the two interconnected second connecting rods. The third connector includes a first cylindrical body 112 extending along the length of the second connecting rods. The first cylindrical body 112 is provided with two dividing slits. The portion between the two dividing slits forms a second elastic piece 114. A fourth clamping block 113 is provided on the outer wall of the second elastic piece 114. The fourth connector includes a third guide groove 117 and a fourth clamping groove 115 disposed on the inner wall of the second connecting rod. The fourth clamping groove 115 can be configured as a through groove. When the third connector is inserted into the fourth connector, the fourth clamping block 113 moves along the third guide groove 117, and the second elastic piece 114 undergoes elastic deformation. When the fourth clamping block 113 moves to the fourth clamping groove 115, the second elastic piece 114 recovers its deformation, and the fourth clamping block 113 is clamped into the fourth clamping groove 115.

[0053] Thus, the dustpan rod can be disassembled into at least two second connecting rods, and can be packaged and transported in a disassembled form during transportation, which occupies little space and is convenient for transportation.

[0054] Alternatively, see Figure 6-8 The broom head 12 is hinged to the broom shaft 11, specifically via a hinge shaft 13. A tooth-shaped first clamping block 111 is provided at the lower end of the broom shaft 11, and the broom head 12 is provided with a plurality of tooth-shaped first clamping grooves 121 arranged circumferentially and matching the first clamping block 111. When the first clamping block 111 is engaged with different first clamping grooves 121, the broom shaft 11 and the broom head 12 form different angles.

[0055] In this way, when needed, the broom head 12 can be fixed, and the broom shaft 11 can be rotated with force. Under the action of the force, the first clamping block 111 rotates from one first clamping groove 121 to the next first clamping groove 121, and then fixed relative to each other under the action of the clamping fit, so that the broom head 12 and the broom shaft 11 are fixed at the angle. In this way, it can be adjusted to different angles according to different cleaning scenarios.
