Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of cleaning tools, especially a mop cleaning bucket suitable for cleaning flat mop or foamed cotton flat mop. BACKGROUND

[0002] The mop cleaning bucket for cleaning flat mop or foamed cotton flat mop mostly needs to fill water in the bucket body, and then the mop is put in for cleaning. Only the first time is clean water, and the next time is the second clean water in the mop bucket after cleaning. After cleaning, the squeezing operation is carried out in another area.

[0003] For example, the Chinese utility model patent with patent number CN201821203889.3 (publication number CN209863678U) discloses a flat mop tool, which comprises a mop bucket and a flat mop. The mop bucket has a separate squeezing water area and a separate water holding area. The bucket body of the squeezing water area is provided with a squeezing device. The flat mop comprises a wiping material, a mop rod, and a flat mop plate connected to the lower end of the mop rod. During use, the flat mop is rotated to a state where it can be squeezed, and then inserted into the squeezing device in the squeezing water area. The wiping material is squeezed by the squeezing device through up and down movement. The water squeezed out of the wiping material is transferred to the water holding area through the water transfer device. Because the amount of water squeezed out of the wiping material is greater than the amount of water entering the squeezing area from the water holding area through the slow-release mechanism, the water in the squeezing water area can be basically completely transferred to the water holding area after multiple reciprocations. The wiping material is also squeezed dry in this process. Then the water in the water holding area enters the squeezing water area through the slow-release mechanism. After the flat mop is used for mopping and the wiping material is dirty, it can enter the squeezing water area for squeezing and cleaning.

[0004] Although the foregoing patent can perform cleaning and squeezing operations in the same area (squeezing water area), the sewage washed off the wiping material each time is discharged back to the water holding area, which causes the water cup in the water holding area to be contaminated. The contaminated water in the water holding area enters the squeezing water area through the slow-release mechanism, so that the water used for cleaning the mop the next time is not clean water, which affects the cleaning of the wiping material. In addition, the slow-release mechanism may be a small hole that cannot be closed. In this way, the lower end of the wiping material may be always soaked in the water in the squeezing water area during the operation process of cleaning and squeezing the wiping material, which reduces the squeezing effect of the wiping material and cannot fully squeeze the wiping material.

[0005] In summary, the existing mop cleaning bucket for cleaning flat mop or cotton mop can be further improved. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS

[0006] The utility model solves the technical problem in the prior art, and provides a mop cleaning bucket that ensures that the water used for cleaning and squeezing each time is clean water and provides the possibility of providing clean water in a fixed amount each time.

[0007] The utility model discloses a mop cleaning barrel that solves the above technical problems, which comprises an outer barrel, characterized in that: a clean water barrel and a cleaning barrel are arranged in the outer barrel; a water squeezing component is arranged on the cleaning barrel to squeeze the mop; the clean water barrel and the cleaning barrel are connected through a water supply channel; a switch is arranged to open and close the water supply channel; a convex linkage part is arranged on the switch to be inserted into the cleaning barrel to trigger the displacement of the mop head.

[0008] As an optional mode of the switch to open and close the water supply channel, the switch is swung or rotated to open and close the water supply channel.

[0009] As an improvement, the switch is in the shape of a long strip; a groove or a convex rib is arranged on the upper end of the switch for operation; the switch is moved downward to close the water supply channel; and the switch is moved upward to open the water supply channel. The upper end of the switch is exposed to the cleaning barrel, which is convenient for the user to operate the switch. Since the mop head is moved up and down during cleaning, the switch is moved downward to close the water supply channel, which can better realize the linkage with the mop head. Of course, the switch can also be in other forms, such as a ball valve or other structures to open and close the switch.

[0010] As a further improvement, the switch is constrained on the inner wall of the cleaning barrel through a rib and groove guide structure; a guide groove in the rib and groove guide structure is arranged on one of the inner wall of the cleaning barrel and the side wall of the switch; and a guide rib in the rib and groove guide structure is arranged on the other one of the inner wall of the cleaning barrel and the side wall of the switch. During the downward movement of the switch, the rib and groove guide structure applies a force to the switch in the direction of approaching the water outlet end of the water supply channel. The rib and groove guide structure makes the switch move along a predetermined track and applies a force to the switch in the direction of approaching the water outlet end of the water supply channel, which can better close the outlet end of the water supply channel and avoid water leakage.

[0011] As an improvement, an upwardly protruding guide table is arranged in the cleaning barrel to guide the lower end of the switch. The guide table applies a force to the lower end of the switch in the direction of approaching the water outlet end of the water supply channel.

[0012] To ensure that the switch does not move additionally after being moved downward to the position, a stop part is arranged on the inner wall of the cleaning barrel to block the switch when it is moved downward to close the water supply channel.

[0013] As a further improvement, a positioning structure is arranged in the cleaning barrel to position the switch at the upwardly moved position or the downwardly moved position. The switch can be moved upwardly or downwardly only by applying a certain force.

[0014] As preferred, the positioning structure comprises a positioning plate fixed on the cleaning tank, the positioning plate is provided with a sliding groove, the side wall of the sliding groove is provided with a left and right spaced upper positioning point and a left and right spaced lower positioning point, the switch is provided with a protruding positioning part which enters the sliding groove and can slide up and down; the switch moves up to the position where the positioning part is above the upper positioning point, the upper positioning point blocks the downward movement of the positioning part; the switch moves down to the position where the positioning part is below the lower positioning point, the lower positioning point blocks the upward movement of the positioning part. The foregoing positioning structure not only has a positioning function, but also plays a guiding role, and the positioning is achieved in a way of providing friction, without the need for additional elastic members.

[0015] In order to realize automatic quantitative water supply, the top end of the clean water tank is closed, and the water supply channel has a height distance from the bottom of the cleaning tank; because the top end of the clean water tank is closed, the space above the liquid level in the clean water tank is basically in a vacuum state, so when the water level reaches the water outlet end of the water supply channel, the clean water tank no longer supplies water to the cleaning tank under the action of atmospheric pressure, and therefore the water supply amount is constant each time, realizing automatic quantitative water supply. The water supply channel also serves as an air inlet channel, so that air enters the closed space above the liquid level in the clean water tank through the water supply channel at the same time when the water supply channel supplies water to the cleaning tank, until the water in the cleaning tank reaches the water outlet end of the water supply channel. When the water in the cleaning tank does not reach the water outlet end of the water supply channel, and the switch is opened, the water in the clean water tank automatically supplies water to the cleaning tank, and air enters the space above the effective liquid level in the cleaning tank through the water supply channel, ensuring smooth water supply of the water supply channel, without the need for an additional air inlet valve, and the structure is simpler.

[0016] As an improvement, the upper part of the clean water tank is provided with a water inlet, and the water inlet is provided with a cover for plugging; the water inlet is provided to facilitate water injection into the clean water area, and the cover is provided to ensure that the top end of the clean water area is closed.

[0017] In order to facilitate smooth air intake of the water supply channel while supplying water, the water supply channel is horizontally arranged, or the water supply channel is arranged to be inclined downward from the inlet end to the water outlet end, or at least the top end of the inlet end of the water supply channel is higher than the top end of the water outlet end.

[0018] As preferred, the clean water tank comprises a lower shell and an upper cover, the upper cover is buckled at the mouth end of the lower shell and a sealing ring is arranged therebetween, and the lower shell and the upper cover are connected by ultrasonic technology or a third component. The clean water tank is divided into two parts for easy manufacturing. Of course, it can also be integrally formed.

[0019] Because there is a difference in atmospheric pressure between the inside and outside of the cleaning tank, the strength of the side wall is strengthened to prevent deformation and affect the sealing effect, and as an improvement, the side wall of the lower shell is provided with a protruding rib or a groove.

[0020] Preferably, the rear of the washing tub has a boss, and the outlet of the water supply channel is located on the side wall of the boss. The position of the boss can form a channel for the mop handle to enter, constraining the mop handle and reducing excessive space in the washing tub that is not used for washing the mop.

[0021] To ensure that the clean water bucket and the washing bucket do not easily sway relative to the outer bucket during cleaning operations, as an improvement, the clean water bucket has a first insertion part on its side wall or bottom, and the first insertion part has a first through hole communicating with the outside and its inner cavity. The washing bucket has a second insertion part on its side wall, and the second insertion part has a second through hole communicating with the outside and its inner cavity. The second insertion part is inserted into the first through hole, and the second through hole constitutes the water supply channel; alternatively, the first insertion part is inserted into the second through hole, and the first through hole constitutes the water supply channel. Furthermore, the water supply channel is formed by the interlocking insertion parts, ensuring that the water supply channel has a certain length. Of course, the water supply channel can also be a hole on the side wall.

[0022] In a further improvement, the aforementioned clean water bucket and washing bucket are fixed to the connecting component using screws or clips, and the connecting component is installed on the outer bucket. During assembly, the two inner buckets can be pre-installed on the connecting component to ensure their relative positions are fixed, and then the connecting component can be fixed inside the outer bucket, making assembly more convenient.

[0023] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are as follows: It determines the opening and closing of the water supply channel through the action of a switch. When the switch is open, the clean water tank supplies water to the cleaning tank through the water supply channel; when the switch is closed, the clean water tank stops supplying water to the water supply channel, thus achieving a quantitative water supply from the clean water tank to the cleaning tank. After the water supply is complete, the switch is closed, and the mop head is cleaned in the cleaning tank until the water in the cleaning tank is used up. For the next use, simply turn the switch on again to supply water, so each supply is clean water. Importantly, this switch automatically closes by coordinating the downward movement of the mop with the linkage of the switch, eliminating the need for manual closing and creating a more rational design that links with the mop.
