Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to a dustpan technical field, concretely relates to a kind of cleaning dustpan for sanitation workers. BACKGROUND

[0002] Sanitation workers are mainly responsible for street sanitation cleaning work, and dustpan is the most frequently used tool in the daily work of sanitation workers. The bottom surface of the existing dustpan used by sanitation workers is a flat structure. This structure often rubs against the ground during daily use, especially after loading a certain amount of garbage. The friction force will greatly increase, resulting in the bottom surface of the dustpan becoming gradually uneven after long-term use. It cannot fit the ground well, and the sanitation worker needs to adjust the angle of the dustpan to fit the ground, causing inconvenience.

[0003] At the same time, when cleaning wet garbage after the rain, it is difficult to drain the wet garbage pile in the conventional flat-bottomed dustpan, causing the weight of the dustpan to increase. The sanitation worker has limited strength and needs to frequently clean the accumulated garbage in the dustpan into the garbage collection box, reducing work efficiency. Some sanitation workers also tilt the dustpan forward to drain the water from the wet garbage pile in the dustpan, increasing the workload of the sanitation worker and making the operation inconvenient. If the tilt is too much, the garbage will flow out with the water. If the tilt is too small, the water flow will be slow, and the sanitation worker needs to use his hand to maintain the tilt of the dustpan, which is inefficient.

[0004] Therefore, we propose a cleaning dustpan for sanitation workers. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL

[0005] (I) Technical problem solved

[0006] To overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, the utility model provides a cleaning dustpan for sanitation workers. A convex strip is provided on the bottom plate near the baffle, which can raise the heel of the dustpan. In the normal placement state of the dustpan, there is an included angle between the ground and the dustpan, which facilitates the automatic drainage of the accumulated water in the wet garbage pile in the dustpan, and the sanitation worker does not need to tilt the dustpan forward. It also reduces the contact area between the bottom surface of the dustpan and the ground, i.e. the area of friction during daily use. At the same time, the sanitation worker tilts the front end of the dustpan upward from the convex strip, and the garbage at the entrance of the storage area falls into the interior. This does not require the sanitation worker to lift the dustpan and then tilt it upward as in the conventional cleaning method, saving the sanitation worker's physical strength. The lower end of the first baffle is approximately vertical, which better fits the road shoulder to clean the garbage into the dustpan (during daily cleaning, the sanitation worker will first concentrate the garbage on the road to the road shoulder). The upper end of the second baffle is inwardly recessed toward the centerline of the dustpan, which better concentrates the garbage accumulated in the first area. It also improves the wind resistance performance of the dustpan hopper, and the garbage accumulated at the top is not easily blown away by the wind from above.

[0020] (Three) beneficial effects

[0021] The utility model embodiment provides a kind of cleaning dustpan for sanitation workers. It has the following beneficial effects:

[0022] 1.

[0042] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the embodiments of the utility model clearer, the technical scheme in the embodiments of the utility model will be described clearly and completely below in combination with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0043] Referring to the drawings Figures 1-4 A kind of cleaning dustpan for sanitation worker, including dustpan body and combined telescopic vertical rod 2, dustpan body is divided into bottom plate 3, left side plate 4, right side plate 5 and baffle 6, two side plates are connected with baffle 6 three sides on bottom plate 3 to form storage area, to temporarily store garbage.

[0044] As Figure 4 Shown, storage area is divided into first area 11, second area 12 and third area 13 with virtual line A and virtual line B, garbage will be integrated to accumulate first area 11 preferentially.

[0045] Left side plate 4 and right side plate 5 are same in structure, to avoid too much repetition, left side plate 4 is only taken as an example to be described hereinafter:

[0046] Left side plate 4 is divided into first baffle edge 8 and second baffle edge 9, first baffle edge 8 is connected to one side of baffle 6 by second baffle edge 9, and the lower end part of first baffle edge 8 is approximately vertical, which can better fit the road shoulder to sweep garbage into the storage area, and reduce the possibility that garbage is stuck in the gap between first baffle 6 and the road shoulder when swept into the storage area. It can be understood that the height of the approximately vertical lower end part is higher than the standard height of most road shoulders.

[0047] Second baffle edge 9 is arc-shaped in structure, smoothly connected between first baffle edge 8 and baffle 6 to form the corner of dustpan body. Compared with the right-angled corner structure, the arc-shaped corner structure can avoid the accumulation of a small amount of garbage in the corner, which is not convenient for sanitation workers to dump or clean, without losing too much storage area space. In particular, in the case of dumping a large amount of wet garbage, the arc-shaped corner structure can prevent garbage from accumulating in the corner. Even if accumulation occurs, it is also convenient for sanitation workers to clean.

[0048] The upper end portion of the second baffle 9 is inwardly tapered towards the middle line of the dustpan, and the tapered structure can better collect the garbage accumulated in the first area 11, and improve the windproof performance of the dustpan. It can be understood that, in order to avoid losing more accommodation space, the upper end portion of the second baffle 9 is tapered gently near the connection between the baffle 6 and the second baffle 9.

[0049] In order to improve the garbage collection and windproof performance of the second area 12, the upper end portion of the first baffle 8 is also inwardly tapered towards the middle line of the dustpan. It can be understood that, under the condition of ensuring integrity, the inward tapering between the first baffle 8 and the second baffle 9 is smoothly transitioned, that is, the degree of inward tapering gradually increases from the first baffle 8 to the second baffle 9.

[0050] In some embodiments, the upper end portion of the first baffle 8 near the front end of the accommodation area is approximately vertical, that is, the part of the first baffle 8 near the front end of the accommodation area is approximately vertical, which facilitates the broom of the sanitation worker to sweep into the accommodation area, and avoids the broom of the sanitation worker being stuck at the entrance of the accommodation area or being inconvenient to enter and exit the entrance of the accommodation area.

[0051] The middle part of the baffle 6 is formed with a cavity for inserting and mounting the combined telescopic vertical rod 2 on the baffle 6. The combined telescopic vertical rod 2 includes a main rod inserted into the cavity and at least one sub-rod. The main rod and the cavity can be detachably connected by a V-shaped spring, or can be connected by an interference fit. The existing connection mode will not be described in detail;

[0052] The sub-rod can be retracted into the main rod or extended out of the main rod, and the two are limited by the V-shaped spring. The height can be adjusted according to the height of different sanitation workers.

[0053] The top of the combined telescopic vertical rod 2 is also connected with a through-hole ram 10 by a plug-in connection, which is used to dredge the blocked, accumulated road drainage ditch, inspection well cover and other small and narrow road gap holes. The end of the through-hole ram 10 is formed with a holding part, which is convenient for the sanitation worker to hold and pull out the through-hole ram 10 for use, and can also prevent the through-hole ram 10 from being inserted into the combined telescopic vertical rod 2 too much and being difficult to pull out, thereby playing a limiting role.

[0054] A convex strip 7 is arranged near the bottom of the bottom plate 3 of the baffle 6, and the convex strip 7 extends along the length direction of the bottom plate 3. When the dustpan is normally placed on the ground, an included angle is formed between the dustpan and the ground. When the dustpan is normally placed on the ground, the accumulated water in the wet garbage pile in the dustpan will flow outwards, which is convenient for the sanitation worker to flow out the accumulated water during outdoor work in rainy days. The sanitation worker can hold the combined telescopic vertical rod 2 and use the convex strip 7 as a fulcrum to lift the front end of the dustpan, so that the garbage at the entrance of the accommodation area falls into the interior; preferably, the included angle is set to 4°-8°.

[0055] The convex strip 7 is designed to reduce the contact area between the dustpan body 1 and the ground in the normal placement state, and reduce the wear of the bottom of the dustpan body 1 caused by the daily use (such as dragging, pulling, and cleaning) of workers.

[0056] In some embodiments, the side wall of the convex strip 7 is in a circular arc shape, which is designed to make it easier for sanitation workers to lift the front end of the dustpan as a fulcrum when the dustpan is loaded with a certain amount of garbage, especially wet garbage (the overall dustpan is relatively heavy), thereby saving more labor and providing stronger support.

[0057] The dustpan body 1 is integrally formed by injection molding, which reduces the cost and facilitates manufacturing.

[0058] The front end of the bottom plate is set to have a slope, which facilitates the sweeping of garbage into the storage area.
