DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0042] In order to make the skilled in the art to which the present application belongs more clearly understand the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely in the following in combination with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by the person of ordinary skill in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0043] In addition, the present application can repeat reference numerals and / or reference letters in different examples, and such repetition is for the purpose of simplification and clarity, and does not indicate the relationship between the various embodiments and / or arrangements discussed. In addition, the present application provides examples of various specific processes and materials, but the person of ordinary skill in the art can realize the application of other processes and / or the use of other materials.
[0044] Please refer to Figure 1 , an exploded view of a cleaning device 1000 in the related art is shown. The dust box 1200 of the cleaning device 1000 is a separate structure, and the dust box 1200 can be taken out from the device body 1100, which is convenient for the user to clean the dust box 1200. In order to install the dust box 1200, the dust box mounting area 100f is provided on the device body 1100, and the dust box 1200 is arranged in the dust box mounting area 100f. The dust suction port 100b and the air suction port (not visible in the figure) for connecting the air suction assembly are provided on the dust box mounting area 100f. The dust box 1200 is in communication with the dust suction port 100b and the air suction port, and in order to ensure the sealing, the sealing ring 10 needs to be provided on the dust suction port 100b and the air suction port. The dust box mounting area 100f and the sealing ring 10 both increase the cost of the cleaning device 1000.
[0045] In order to reduce the cost, the present application provides a cleaning device and an automatic cleaning system, and the main body of the dust box is integrally formed with the device body, which reduces the material cost. The technical solutions of the present application will be described in detail in combination with the drawings and specific embodiments.
[0046] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5respectively, show structural schematic diagrams and an exploded view of the cleaning device 1000 provided by the first aspect of the present application from different visual angles. The cleaning device 1000 comprises a device body 1100, a box cover 200 and a filter unit 300. The device body 1100 is provided with a dust storage cavity 100a, a dust suction port 100b and an air suction port 100c. The dust suction port 100b and the air suction port 100c are both in communication with the dust storage cavity 100a. The air suction port 100c is used to suck air outwardly, so as to suck dust garbage from the dust suction port 100b into the dust storage cavity 100a. The dust storage cavity 100a is used to store dust and other garbage. The dust storage cavity 100a plays a dust storage function of the main body of the dust box, which is equivalent to integrating the main body of the independent dust box of the prior art and the device body 1100 into one. The box cover 200 and the filter unit 300 are both movably matched with the device body 1100. The box cover 200 covers the cavity opening of the dust storage cavity 100a. After the box cover 200 is opened, the dust storage cavity 100a can be cleaned. The filter unit 300 covers the air suction port 100c, so as to prevent the garbage in the dust storage cavity 100a from being sucked away from the air suction port 100c.
[0047] The cleaning device 1000 provided by the embodiment of the present application integrates the main body of the dust box and the device body 1100 into one. The main body of the dust box is integrally formed with the device body 1100. Therefore, the related structures (dust box mounting area, a plurality of sealing rings, etc.) provided on the device body 1100 of the prior art for mounting the dust box can be omitted, so as to reduce the material cost and the assembly cost.
[0048] In order to realize automatic cleaning and improve the cleaning effect, the cleaning device 1000 is usually provided with a sweeping member 400 and an air suction assembly 500. Please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 In some embodiments, the device body 1100 comprises a machine shell 100, the sweeping member 400 and the air suction assembly 500. The machine shell 100 is the mounting base of the cleaning device 1000. The sweeping member 400 and the air suction assembly 500 are both mounted on the machine shell 100. The box cover 200 and the filter unit 300 are both movably matched with the machine shell 100. The mounting area of the sweeping member 400 is in communication with the dust suction port 100b. The sweeping member 400 can be a rolling brush, a rotating brush, a mop or the like. The air suction assembly 500 is in communication with the dust storage cavity 100a through the air suction port 100c. The air suction assembly 500 sucks air outwardly from the dust storage cavity 100a of the machine shell 100, so as to generate negative pressure in the dust storage cavity 100a. Therefore, the dust garbage swept by the sweeping member 400 is sucked into the dust box. The filter unit 300 is arranged at the communication position between the dust storage cavity 100a and the air suction assembly 500. Specifically, the filter unit 300 can be arranged in the dust storage cavity 100a and attached to the cavity wall 121 where the air suction port 100c is located, so as to cover the air suction port 100c and block the dust and foreign matters from being sucked into the air suction assembly 500, which may cause abnormal noise or failure of the device.
[0049] The material of the casing 100 can be plastic, aluminum, ceramic, glass, etc. In some embodiments, the material of the casing 100 is plastic, which is integrally formed by injection molding or additive manufacturing. The dust storage cavity 100a can be a cavity recessed inward in the casing 100, the box cover 200 covers the cavity opening of the cavity, and a sealing element is arranged between the box cover 200 and the casing 100. The dust storage cavity 100a can also be formed by the casing 100 and other accessories together, for example, the casing 100 and the air duct 520 of the air suction assembly 500 together form the dust storage cavity 100a.
[0050] For details, please refer to Figure 7 In some embodiments, the air suction assembly 500 includes a power element 510 and an air duct 520 in communication, and the casing 100 is provided with a cavity 100e which is open upward and laterally. The inlet end of the air duct 520 blocks the lateral opening of the cavity 100e to form the dust storage cavity 100a together with the cavity wall 121 of the cavity 100e. The upper opening of the cavity 100e forms the cavity opening of the dust storage cavity 100a. Since the air duct 520 itself serves as one of the cavity walls of the dust storage cavity 100a, the inlet 523 of the air duct 520 serves as the air suction port 100c of the dust storage cavity 100a.
[0051] To facilitate cleaning of the dust storage cavity 100a, the area of the cavity opening should be as large as possible. The cavity opening of the dust storage cavity 100a can be completely open, and the dust storage cavity 100a is exposed everywhere through the cavity opening. Further, the cross-sectional area of the dust storage cavity 100a can increase from the cavity bottom to the cavity opening, and the area at the cavity opening is the largest, which facilitates the hand to reach in. In some embodiments, the cavity wall 121 where the dust suction port 100b is located is arranged obliquely relative to the vertical plane, and the other side walls of the dust storage cavity 100a are arranged along the vertical direction, so that the cross-sectional area of the dust storage cavity 100a gradually increases from the cavity bottom to the cavity opening. When the cleaning member 400 is a roller brush, part of the roller brush can extend into the space below the cavity wall 121 where the dust suction port 100b is located. On the one hand, this makes the internal space of the device body 1100 more efficient and the structure more compact. On the other hand, it makes the cleaning member 400 closer to the dust suction port 100b, improving the dust collection effect.
[0052] The dust and garbage stored in the dust storage cavity 100a can be manually cleaned out or automatically removed. Taking the cleaning device 1000 as an example of a common sweeping robot on the market, the sweeping robot is usually used together with a dust collection base station 2000, which provides functions such as charging, cleaning of the cleaning member 400, and garbage collection. To cooperate with the work of the dust collection base station 2000, please refer to Figure 7In some embodiments, the device body 1100 is provided with a dust outlet channel 600, and the dust storage cavity 100a is also provided with a dust outlet 100d to connect the dust storage cavity 100a and the dust outlet channel 600. The dust outlet channel 600 can be a separate part connected to the casing 100 and / or the air duct 520, and the dust outlet 100d is provided on the cavity wall 121 of the cavity 100e. The dust outlet channel 600 can abut the cavity wall 121 where the dust outlet 100d is located to communicate with the dust outlet 100d. The dust outlet channel 600 can also be an integral structure with the casing 100 and / or the air duct 520. When the dust outlet channel 600 is integrally formed with the casing 100, the inlet of the dust outlet channel 600 naturally forms the dust outlet 100d of the dust storage cavity 100a. When the dust outlet channel 600 is integrally formed with the air duct 520, the dust outlet 100d is provided on the cavity wall 121 of the cavity 100e. The specific structure type of the dust outlet channel 600 is not limited in the present application.
[0053] Figure 7 The assembly structure of the dust outlet channel 600, the air duct 520 and the casing 100 in some embodiments is shown. In this embodiment, the dust outlet channel 600 is a separate part connected to the casing 100 and the air duct 520, and the dust outlet 100d is provided on the cavity wall 121 of one side of the cavity 100e of the casing 100. Specifically, please refer to Figure 8 The assembly structure of the dust outlet channel 600 and the air duct 520 in some embodiments is shown. The air duct 520 is provided with a mounting groove 521 with a through hole 522. After the air duct 520 is mounted and fixed with the casing 100, the through hole 522 is opposite to and communicates with the dust outlet 100d. The dust outlet channel 600 is connected to the mounting groove 521 and communicates with the through hole 522, and correspondingly, the dust outlet channel 600 communicates with the dust outlet 100d through the through hole 522. The dust outlet channel 600 is fixed by the air duct 520. The air duct 520 and the dust outlet channel 600 can be pre-assembled into a sub-assembly before assembly, and then mounted on the casing, which is convenient for assembly. The dust outlet channel 600, the air duct 520 and the casing 100 can be connected by the same fastener, reducing the number of fasteners.
[0054] The mounting groove 521 is mainly used for mounting the dust outlet channel 600, and in some embodiments, the mounting groove 521 can also be used as part of the closed channel structure. Please refer to Figure 9 The end of the mounting groove 521 is open, which is part of the closed channel structure. Please refer to Figure 10 One end of the dust outlet channel 600 is an unsealed structure 610, which forms a complete closed channel structure after being connected to the mounting groove 521, as shown in Figure 8The closed channel structure is formed by connecting the sub-pieces. The single sub-piece can be set as a complex structure, and the combined closed channel structure can have a more complex shape. For example, the channel for moving dust garbage needs to change in cross-sectional size or have a certain bending angle to avoid surrounding structural pieces. The integrated channel structure is difficult to implement in process, and the split structure is easy to implement.
[0055] Referring to Figure 8 and Figure 9 In some embodiments, the cross-sectional area of the dust outlet channel 600 decreases from the dust outlet 100d to the end, and the dust outlet channel 600 is a bending structure to facilitate avoiding surrounding structural pieces. To facilitate the arrangement of the air suction assembly 500 and the dust outlet channel 600, the air suction port 100c and the dust outlet 100d are arranged at an angle. The air suction port 100c and the dust outlet 100d are arranged opposite to the dust suction port 100b, that is, the dust storage cavity 100a is located between the cleaning piece 400 and the air duct 520. The dust outlet 100d is close to the air suction port 100c, and the dust outlet 100d is close to the filter unit 300. Under the negative pressure of the dust collection base station 2000, the garbage in the dust storage cavity 100a is sucked into the dust outlet channel 600 through the dust outlet 100d, and part of the garbage attached to the filter unit 300 close to the dust outlet 100d can also be sucked into the dust outlet 100d, which improves the cleaning effect to a certain extent and reduces the replacement frequency of the filter piece 320.
[0056] The shell 100 is the installation basis of the cleaning device 1000 and simultaneously affects the overall shape of the cleaning device 1000. The shell 100 can be an integrated structure; in some embodiments, considering the difficulty of manufacturing process, the shell 100 can also be set as a split structure. The specific shape and structure of the shell 100 are not limited in the present application.
[0057] Figure 11 The structure of the shell 100 in some embodiments is shown in the structure diagram. Please refer to Figure 11 The shell 100 includes a connected upper cover 110 and bottom shell 120, at least part of the upper cover 110 is located above the bottom shell 120, and the upper cover 110 is provided with an operation port 111 for the box cover 200 and the filter unit 300 to pass through. The bottom shell 120 is the main installation basis of the cleaning device 1000, and the cleaning piece 400, the air suction assembly 500, the walking assembly of the cleaning device 1000, etc. are all installed on the bottom shell 120. The dust storage cavity 100a is also arranged on the bottom shell 120, which is closer to the cleaning piece 400 and the air suction assembly 500. Figure 12 The structure of the bottom shell 120 in some embodiments is shown in the structure diagram. Please refer to Figure 12The bottom shell 120 is provided with a cavity 100e which is open upward and sideward, so that the cavity wall 121 of the cavity 100e and the air duct 520 jointly form the dust storage cavity 100a. The cavity wall 121 of the cavity 100e can be provided with a dust suction port 100b and a dust outlet 100d.
[0058] For the sake of aesthetics, the top of the cleaning device 1000 is usually provided with a decorative cover plate 700 to shield the dust box and other accessories, so that the appearance of the cleaning device 1000 remains in a simple style. Please refer to Figure 13 and Figure 14 In some embodiments, the cleaning device 1000 further comprises a decorative cover plate 700 which is detachably connected with the device body 1100, specifically, the decorative cover plate 700 is detachably connected with the upper cover 110, and the connection mode can be buckle 730 connection, magnetic attraction connection, electromagnetic attraction connection. After the decorative cover plate 700 is installed on the upper cover 110, the dust box cover 200 and the filter unit 300 are shielded, and the appearance of the cleaning device 1000 is more beautiful. When the decorative cover plate 700 is removed, the dust box cover 200 is exposed outside through the operation port 111 of the upper cover 110, and the user can take out the dust box cover 200 and the filter unit 300 through the operation port 111; or open the dust box cover 200 through the operation port 111 to expose the dust storage cavity 100a and the filter unit 300. After the dust box is opened, the user can clean the dust box, such as replacing the filter element 320 of the filter unit 300, wiping the inner wall of the box body with a cloth, etc.
[0059] Figure 13 The structure schematic diagram of the detachable connection of the decorative cover plate 700 and the upper cover 110 by the magnet 101 in some embodiments is shown, and a plurality of magnets 101 are respectively arranged on the decorative cover plate 700 and the upper cover 110, and the magnetic poles of the two corresponding magnets 101 are opposite. Figure 14 The structure schematic diagram of the detachable connection of the decorative cover plate 700 and the upper cover 110 by the buckle 730 structure in some other embodiments is shown, and a plurality of outward protruding buckles 730 are arranged on the bottom surface of the decorative cover plate 700, a plurality of inward recessed buckle grooves 113 are correspondingly arranged on the upper cover 110, the buckle 730 extends into the buckle groove 113 and is buckled with the buckle position in the buckle groove 113. Compared with the magnetic attraction for fixing the decorative cover plate 700, the buckle 730 structure for fixing the decorative cover plate 700 can be integrally formed with the decorative cover plate 700 and the upper cover 110, and the cost is lower; and the stability of the buckle 730 connection is better, and the decorative cover plate 700 can only be detached in the buckling direction of the buckle 730, so that the decorative cover plate 700 is prevented from being accidentally detached due to being touched.
[0060] The decorative cover plate 700 is an important appearance part of the cleaning device 1000, and mainly affects the aesthetics of the cleaning device 1000. When the decorative cover plate 700 is removed, the upper cover 110 is exposed, and thus the top surface of the upper cover 110 also affects the aesthetics of the cleaning device 1000. Since various functional components of the cleaning device 1000 are mainly mounted on the bottom shell 120, the strength requirement of the upper cover 110 is relatively low, and the upper cover 110 usually has a small wall thickness, and the injection-molded upper cover 110 is prone to surface quality problems. In some embodiments, the upper cover 110 and the bottom shell 120 are both plastic parts, and the top wall of the upper cover 110 is thickened to reduce surface defects, which causes the top surface of the upper cover 110 to be higher than the top surface of the dust box cover 200, thereby causing a height difference between the inside and outside of the operation port 111. Therefore, please refer to Figure 11 and Figure 13 In some embodiments, the operation port 111 is provided with a chamfer structure 112, the lower edge of the chamfer structure 112 is flush with the top surface of the dust box cover 200, so that the height of the inside and outside of the operation port 111 gradually transitions; on the other hand, the inclined surface formed by the chamfer structure 112 also facilitates the installation of the dust box cover 200 and the filter unit 300.
[0061] In other embodiments, the dust box cover 200 can also be connected with the decorative cover plate 700 as a whole, and the dust box cover 200 is mainly used for sealing the dust storage cavity 100a and is not used as an appearance part. When the decorative cover plate 700 is removed, the dust box cover 200 and the filter unit 300 are also removed.
