Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of cleaning devices, and in particular relates to a roller type steam cleaning device. Background Art

[0002] Roller-type cleaning devices are currently used in many cleaning tools, such as floor scrubbers, sweeping robots, and handheld cleaning devices. However, existing roller-type cleaning devices have poor cleaning effects and cannot meet the cleaning needs of users. This is especially true for some hardened, stubborn dirt, which is often difficult to remove during the rotation and wiping process of the cleaning roller in existing roller-type cleaning devices. Some roller-type cleaning devices supply water to the periphery of the cleaning roller or spray steam on the front side of the cleaning roller. However, such roller-type cleaning devices still have certain defects. Supplying water to the periphery of the cleaning roller cannot quickly soften the dirt and also produces a large amount of wastewater. Steam is sprayed from the front side of the cleaning roller, and there is a time lag between softening the dirt and the cleaning roller rotating to wipe the dirt. The dirt quickly cools and hardens, making it impossible to effectively clean stubborn dirt. Utility Model Content

[0025] like Figure 1-4 As shown, a roller steam cleaning device includes a cleaning device body, which includes a main shell 1 and a roller assembly 2. A cleaning port 3 is provided on the front side of the main shell 1, and a sewage recovery port 4 is provided on the rear side of the main shell 1, and the sewage recovery port 4 is connected to the cleaning port 3; a roller assembly 2 is provided in the cleaning port 3, and the roller assembly 2 includes a roller base 201, and the outer side of the roller base 201 is wrapped with a fabric layer 202; an air inlet pipe 5 for connecting to a steam generator is provided on one side of the main shell 1, and a hollow cavity connected to the air inlet pipe 5 is provided inside the roller base 201, and a plurality of air holes 203 connected to the fabric layer 202 are provided on the inner wall of the hollow cavity; a motor 6 is provided on the main shell 1, and the motor 6 is connected to the roller base 201 through a transmission mechanism 7. This design has a simple structure and strong cleaning power. Steam softens dirt and immediately cleans it, improving steam cleaning efficiency. Simultaneously, the steam or water flowing outward from the roller washes dirt off the surface of fabric layer 202, achieving a strong self-cleaning effect. Furthermore, fabric layer 202 absorbs some of the heat from the steam and heats up, effectively cleaning stubborn stains. This design can be applied to some floor scrubbers, robot vacuums, or handheld cleaning devices.

[0026] To facilitate the motor 6 to drive the roller base 201 to rotate, the transmission mechanism 7 adopts one of a synchronous belt transmission mechanism, a gear transmission mechanism, and a worm gear transmission mechanism. Preferably, the transmission mechanism 7 adopts a synchronous belt transmission mechanism, which includes a driving wheel, a driven wheel, and a synchronous belt. The driving wheel is arranged on the rotating shaft of the motor 6, and the driven wheel is arranged on the roller base 201. The driving wheel and the driven wheel are connected by a synchronous belt.

[0027] The roller base 201 is provided with a left rotating shaft and a right rotating shaft on either side. The left and right rotating shafts are rotatably connected to the inner walls of the cleaning port 3 via bearings, thereby facilitating the installation and fixation of the roller base 201. Furthermore, the left and right rotating shafts and the roller base 201 are integrated into a structure to ensure the stable installation of the roller base 201.

[0028] The left rotating shaft passes through the main housing 1 , and the driven wheel is arranged on the left rotating shaft located outside the main housing 1 to facilitate the arrangement of the synchronous belt transmission mechanism, so that the roller base 201 is driven to rotate by the left rotating shaft.

[0029] The left rotating shaft is hollow and connected to the air inlet pipe 5, allowing steam generated by the steam generator to be delivered through the air inlet pipe 5 and the left rotating shaft into the hollow cavity within the roller base 201. To ensure efficient steam delivery, a steam conduit 8 is provided inside the left rotating shaft, and several sealing rings 9 are installed on the outside of the steam conduit 8 to reduce steam leakage.

[0030] The air holes 203 can be at least one of circular holes, elliptical holes, rectangular holes, and diamond holes, and several air holes 203 are evenly arranged on the inner wall of the hollow cavity to ensure that the steam softens the dirt after passing through the surface of the fabric layer 202, thereby improving the cleaning effect.

[0031] A cleaning brush 10 is provided on the inner side of the cleaning opening 3 for scraping dirt off the surface of the fabric layer 202. The cleaning brush 10 is disposed on the rear side of the roller assembly 2. The cleaning brush 10 scrapes off the surface of the fabric layer 202, thereby ensuring the cleaning effect of the continuous rotation and wiping of the cleaning roller. Preferably, the cleaning brush 10 comprises a soft rubber scraper. A mounting slot is provided on the inner wall of the cleaning opening 3. The rear portion of the soft rubber scraper is disposed in the mounting slot, and the front portion of the soft rubber scraper abuts against the fabric layer 202.
