[0029] Referring now to specific embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Although the present invention will be described in conjunction with specific embodiments, it will be understood that it is not intended to limit the present invention to the described embodiments. Rather, it is intended to cover variations, modifications, and equivalents included within the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined by the appended claims. It should be noted that the method steps described herein can be implemented by any functional block or functional arrangement, and any functional block or functional arrangement can be implemented as a physical entity or a logical entity, or a combination of both.

[0030] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0031] Note: The examples described below are merely specific examples and are not intended to limit the embodiments of this utility model to the specific steps, values, conditions, data, order, etc. Those skilled in the art can utilize the concept of this utility model to construct more embodiments not mentioned herein by reading this specification.

[0032] If the user is too far away from the machine while using it, they will not be able to observe its operation, such as whether the water tank is full. Currently, there are mechanically blocked water tanks on the market without electrical protection. These tanks may have a liquid level power-off protection feature, which could cause the foamy water inside the tank to overflow and enter the motor, burning it out and rendering the machine unusable. Therefore, a water tank with electrical control power-off protection is needed to solve the above problems.

[0033] To address the aforementioned problems with water tank levels, this utility model proposes an electrically controlled power-off protection structure for water tank levels.

[0034] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The system includes an outer shell 1, which has a Z-shaped cross-section and a hollow interior. The top of the outer shell 1 is recessed inward near the left and right sides to form grooves 3. The two grooves 3 are configured as a cleaning tank 2 and a sewage tank 5. There is a gap between the cleaning tank 2 and the sewage tank 5 and the outer shell 1, and there is also a gap between the cleaning tank 2 and the sewage tank 5. A sensor is installed between the cleaning tank 2 and the sewage tank 5. The sensor is installed on the outside of the sewage tank 5, and the sensing part of the sensor is located inside the sewage tank 5.

[0035] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the outer shell 1, the cleaning tank 2, and the wastewater tank 5 are actually an integrated structure. The cross-section of the outer shell 1 is shaped like a "Z", that is, a box structure with an open bottom and a hollow interior. The top of the outer shell 1 is recessed inward to form a groove 3, and the top is recessed to the left and right, forming two grooves 3. The two grooves 3 are respectively set as the cleaning tank 2 and the wastewater tank 5. The outer wall of the cleaning tank 2 is higher than that of the wastewater tank 5. There is a gap between the cleaning tank 2 and the wastewater tank 5, and there is also a gap between the cleaning tank 2 and the wastewater tank 5 and the inner wall of the outer shell 1. A sensor is installed in the gap between the cleaning tank 2 and the wastewater tank 5. The sensor is installed on the wastewater tank 5, and the sensing part of the sensor is located inside the wastewater tank 5. When the water level inside the wastewater tank 5 rises to the position of the sensor, the sensor transmits a signal to shut off the water suction motor (existing technology) and stop filling the wastewater tank 5 with water.

[0036] Please see Figure 3 The sensing element is set as sensor 9, with part of sensor 9 located outside the sewage tank 5 and part of sensor 9 located inside the sewage tank 5. Sensor 9 is installed on the sewage tank 5 at the required height.

[0037] like Figure 3 As shown, the sensing element can be set as sensor 9, which includes, but is not limited to, liquid level sensor 9. The height of sensor 9 is installed on sewage tank 5 according to the required water level height, so that sewage tank 5 can stop working after reaching the normal water level during use.

[0038] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 A cover 501 is inserted into the top of the sewage tank 5. The cover 501 has an irregular external structure and is snapped together with the sewage tank 5. A top cover 6 covers the top of the cover 501 and is snapped together with the cover 501. The top cover 6 is made to be transparent.

[0039] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the cover 501 is adapted to the sewage tank 5, and the top cover 6 is adapted to the cover 501. Both the cover 501 and the top cover 6 are connected in a detachable manner. The cover 501 can be opened when the sewage tank 5 needs to be opened, and at the same time, it can cover the sewage tank 5 during use to prevent water from splashing out and flowing out.

[0040] Please see Figure 2 The cover 501 has a water inlet hole 8 on its outside, which is connected to the sewage tank 5.

[0041] like Figure 2As shown, a water pipe can be inserted into the water inlet 8, and a water suction motor (existing technology, not shown in the figure) can be installed on the water pipe to inject water into the sewage tank 5. At the same time, the water suction motor is connected to the sensor 9 through a controller. When the water level reaches the position of the sensor 9, the water suction motor stops working.

[0042] Please see Figure 1 A control terminal 4 is installed on the outside of the outer casing 1 at the position corresponding to the cleaning tank 2, and an exhaust fan 7 is installed on the outside of the outer casing 1 at the position corresponding to the sewage tank 5. A handle is protruded from the top of the outer casing 1 at the position between the cleaning tank 2 and the sewage tank 5.

[0043] like Figure 1 As shown, the handle allows users to easily lift the entire machine; the other structures are built into the machine.

[0044] When using this utility model, water enters the sewage tank 5 through the water inlet 8. When the water level rises to the position of the sensor 9, the sensor 9 transmits a signal to shut off the water suction motor and stop the sewage tank 5 from continuing to fill with water, so that the water level in the sewage tank 5 rises to a safe height.
