Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sweeping robot technology; specifically, it is a novel non-magnetic sweeping robot. Background Technology

[0002] A robotic vacuum cleaner is a smart home device primarily used for automatically cleaning floors. They are typically equipped with a vacuuming function, which can effectively remove dust, hair, and other debris. Many robotic vacuum cleaners use laser navigation, visual sensors, or infrared sensors to plan their cleaning path, avoid obstacles, and ensure thorough cleaning. Some robotic vacuum cleaners also have a dual-use function, capable of vacuuming and mopping simultaneously.

[0003] Currently, most existing robotic vacuum cleaners use magnetic collection boxes. In special environments such as hospitals, the magnetic collection box may affect the operation of other equipment, which is not conducive to the safe use of the equipment and reduces its reliability to some extent. In addition, most existing robotic vacuum cleaners do not have a locking mechanism for their collection boxes, which may lead to the collection box falling off during actual use. This is not conducive to the equipment cleaning complex terrain and affects the practicality of the equipment to some extent. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, this utility model provides a novel non-magnetic sweeping robot to solve the problems existing in the background art.

[0005] This utility model provides the following technical solution: a novel non-magnetic sweeping robot, comprising:

[0006] A cleaning robot, comprising a robot body;

[0007] The fixing mechanism includes a collection box, and the outer surface of one end of the collection box is inserted into the interior of the robot body.

[0008] Preferably, the cleaning robot also includes a control panel, which is located on the outer surface of the top of the robot body, and an insertion slot is provided inside the outer surface of one end of the robot body, the size of which is adapted to the size of the collection box.

[0009] Preferably, the outer surface of one end of the collection box is inserted into the interior of the insertion slot, and a shrinkage groove is formed in the center of the inner surface of the insertion slot. A first spring is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the shrinkage groove, and the collection box can be pushed out by the first spring.

[0010] Preferably, the outer surface of one end of the first spring is attached to the outer surface of one end of the collection box, and a locking hole is provided inside one end of the top outer surface of the robot body, the size of the locking hole being adapted to the size of the locking post.

[0011] Preferably, the fixing mechanism further includes an insertion hole, which is located inside one end of the outer surface of the top of the collection box, and a second spring is fixedly connected to the bottom surface inside the insertion hole, so that the locking post can retract into the insertion hole.

[0012] Preferably, a locking post is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the upper end of the second spring, and the outer surface of the top of the locking post is inserted into the inside of the locking hole. A collection groove is opened inside the top outer surface of the collection box, through which the garbage sucked out by the robot body can be collected.

[0013] The technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] 1. This utility model, by setting up a cleaning robot, when used in special environments such as hospitals, uses a first spring to press one end against the outer surface of the collection box. When the fixing of the collection box is released, the collection box can be popped out by the elasticity of the first spring itself. The non-magnetic fixing mechanism will not affect the operation of other equipment, which is conducive to the safe use of the equipment and improves the reliability of the equipment to a certain extent.

[0015] 2. By setting up a fixing mechanism, the second spring pushes the locking post into the locking hole during actual use, thus fixing the collection box.

[0022] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In addition, the forms of the various structures described in the following embodiments are merely illustrative. The novel non-magnetic sweeping robot involved in this utility model is not limited to the structures described in the following embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0023] Example 1

[0024] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this utility model proposes a novel non-magnetic sweeping robot, including a sweeping robot 1. The sweeping robot 1 includes a robot body 11 and a control panel 12. The control panel 12 is disposed on the outer surface of the top of the robot body 11, and an insertion slot 13 is provided inside the outer surface of one end of the robot body 11. The device can be adjusted through the control panel 12. The size of the insertion slot 13 is adapted to the size of the collection box 21. The collection box 21 can be completely inserted into the insertion slot 13 and fixed by the fixing mechanism 2.

[0025] The outer surface of one end of the collection box 21 is inserted into the insertion slot 13. A contraction groove 14 is formed in the center of the inner surface of the insertion slot 13. A first spring 15 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the contraction groove 14. The outer surface of one end of the first spring 15 is attached to the outer surface of one end of the collection box 21. A locking hole 16 is formed inside the top outer surface of the robot body 11. The collection box 21 can be pushed out by the first spring 15. During the process of inserting the collection box 21 into the insertion slot 13, the outer surface of the collection box 21 pushes the first spring 15 and contracts into the contraction groove 14. The size of the locking hole 16 is adapted to the size of the locking post 24. When pushed to the deepest point, the locking post 24 can be locked in the locking hole 16 for fixation.

[0026] Example 2

[0027] like Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, this embodiment also proposes:

[0028] The fixing mechanism 2 includes a collection box 21, and the outer surface of one end of the collection box 21 is inserted into the inside of the robot body 11. The fixing mechanism 2 also includes an insertion hole 22, which is opened inside the top outer surface of the collection box 21. A second spring 23 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface inside the insertion hole 22. The collection box 21 is made of plastic. Plastic is the main material of the sweeping robot accessories. It is widely used because of its many excellent properties. Plastic is relatively light, which can reduce the overall weight of the robot, thereby improving the robot's maneuverability during the cleaning process. Modern plastic has good impact resistance and wear resistance, and can withstand collisions and compressions during use, increasing the service life of the accessories. Plastic accessories are usually easy to disassemble and do not easily absorb dirt, so users can easily clean and maintain them. When the locking column 24 is pressed down, the locking column 24 will squeeze the second spring 23 and retract into the insertion hole 22.

[0029] The outer surface of the upper end of the second spring 23 is fixedly connected to the locking post 24, and the outer surface of the top of the locking post 24 is inserted into the inside of the locking hole 16. The inner surface of the top outer surface of the collection box 21 is provided with a collection groove 25. During the process of inserting the collection box 21 into the insertion groove 13, when the collection box 21 is inserted to the deepest point, the upper end of the locking post 24 is reset and inserted into the inside of the locking hole 16 by the elasticity of the second spring 23. At this time, the position of the collection box 21 can be fixed. When the locking post 24 is pressed down, the collection box 21 can be removed.

[0030] Working principle: First, check if the equipment is operating normally. Then, insert the clean collection box 21 into the insertion slot 13. When inserted to the deepest point, the collection box 21 compresses the first spring 15 and retracts into the shrinkage slot 14. The second spring 23 pushes the locking post 24 into the locking hole 16, thus fixing the collection box 21. When it is necessary to remove the collection box 21, press down on the locking post 24 to disengage it from the locking hole 16. The first spring 15 will then pop the collection box 21 out, and the collection box 21 can then be pulled out for cleaning. This is the complete working principle of this utility model.

[0031] Finally, the following points should be noted: First, in the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection", and "linkage" should be interpreted broadly, and can be mechanical or electrical connections, or internal connections between two components, or direct connections. "Up", "down", "left", "right", etc. are only used to indicate relative positional relationships. When the absolute position of the described object changes, the relative positional relationship may change.

[0032] Secondly: The accompanying drawings of the embodiments disclosed in this utility model only involve the structures involved in the embodiments disclosed in this utility model. Other structures can refer to the general design. In the absence of conflict, the same embodiment and different embodiments of this utility model can be combined with each other.

[0033] In conclusion, the above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
