[0020] Function description:

[0021] When the vacuum cleaner fan works, the vacuum cleaner fan inlet draws air from the sewage tank, forming a negative pressure vacuum in the sewage tank, and the sewage tank sewage garbage inlet forms a negative pressure to suck in solid or liquid waste from the outside. Due to the formation of negative pressure in the sewage tank, the one-way outward drainage device is closed under the influence of external pressure, so that the garbage in the sewage tank will not be discharged to the outside of the sewage tank. When the vacuum cleaner fan stops working, the pressure in the sewage tank is equal to the outside, and no solid or liquid waste is sucked from the outside. When the height of the garbage exceeds the one-way outward drainage device, the one-way outward drainage device valve opens, and the sewage exceeding the one-way outward drainage device will be discharged to the outside of the sewage tank combination.

[0022] The sewage tank assembly comprises a one-way water drainage structure from the inside of the sewage tank to the outside, which is located before the air inlet of the vacuum cleaner fan, and the one-way valve closes the one-way water drainage structure when the vacuum cleaner fan is working, and the one-way water drainage structure is opened when the vacuum cleaner fan is not working, so that water flows out of the one-way water drainage structure to the outside of the sewage tank, thereby preventing sewage from entering the vacuum cleaner fan and damaging the vacuum cleaner fan.

[0023] When the dust suction fan stops working, the sewage is discharged before entering the heat dissipation channel of the dust suction fan,

[0024] The sewage is prevented from entering the heat dissipation channel of the dust suction fan, so that the dust suction fan is protected.

[0038] As shown in Figure 1 , 2 , the water-preventing structure for the vacuum cleaner fan comprises a main body 1, a vacuum cleaner fan 2, and a sewage tank combination 3.

[0039] As shown in Figure 2 , the main body 1 comprises a front shell 11 and a rear shell 12.

[0040] As shown in Figure 1 , the main body 1 is provided with a battery pack 5.

[0041] As shown in Figure 1 , 2 , the main body 1 is provided with the sewage tank combination 3 which is detachably embedded in the main body 1.

[0042] As shown in Figure 1 , 2 , 3, the sewage tank combination 3 comprises a sewage tank upper cover 31, a sewage tank bottom shell 32, and a one-way outward water drainage device 33.

[0043] As shown in Figure 1 , the sewage tank upper cover 31 is provided with a sewage tank garbage limiting detection device 315.

[0044] As shown in Figure 1 , between the sewage garbage inlet 325 and the air inlet 3151 which communicates with the sewage garbage storage cavity 323, there is a blocking structure 312 which prevents the sewage garbage from being directly sucked into the sewage tank exhaust passage 311, and the sewage tank upper cover 31 is provided with a sewage tank exhaust passage 311 which, together with the front end of the air inlet 21 of the main body 1 and the vacuum cleaner fan 2, forms a vacuum cleaner fan front exhaust passage 8, and the sewage tank exhaust passage 311 communicates with the vacuum cleaner fan front exhaust passage 8.

[0045] The sewage tank exhaust passage 311 comprises an air inlet 3151 which communicates with the sewage garbage storage cavity 323, and the sewage tank exhaust passage 311 comprises an exhaust hole 3152 which communicates with the vacuum cleaner fan front exhaust passage 8.

[0046] The sewage tank bottom shell 32 is provided with a sewage garbage passage 321, a sewage garbage inlet 325 and a sewage garbage storage cavity 323.

[0047] The one-way outward drainage device 33 is arranged on the side wall of the sewage tank bottom shell 32 at the front end of the air inlet 3151 and is slightly higher than the garbage limiting indication.

[0048] As shown in Figure 6 , the vacuum cleaner fan 2 is provided with a heat dissipation passage 22 near the air inlet 21.

[0049] Working principle:

[0050] When the vacuum cleaner fan 2 works, the vacuum cleaner fan air inlet 21 generates negative pressure, the air in the heat dissipation passage 22 is sucked into the vacuum cleaner fan and discharged, the heat dissipation passage 22 is connected to the parts inside the vacuum cleaner fan 2 that need to be cooled, so that the air flow cools the parts. The vacuum cleaner fan air inlet 21 generates negative pressure, and the exhaust passage 311 connected to the vacuum cleaner fan air inlet 21 also generates negative pressure, the air in the sewage tank combination 3 storage cavity is sucked into the exhaust passage 311 and enters the vacuum cleaner fan 2 and is discharged. If the air is sucked into the vacuum cleaner fan at this time, due to the action of negative pressure, it will not enter the heat dissipation passage 22. At this time, the one-way outward drainage device 33 is tightly attached to the wall of the sewage tank combination under the action of negative pressure, and the water pressed on the one-way outward drainage device 33 will not be discharged to the outside of the sewage tank combination 3. When the vacuum cleaner fan 2 stops working, under the condition of unfavorable placement, sewage has a certain chance to enter the inside of the vacuum cleaner fan 2. Since the one-way outward drainage device 33 is arranged on the passageway that the sewage must pass through, when the sewage passes through the one-way outward drainage device 33, as shown in Figure 5 , the pressure of the sewage will open the one-way outward drainage device 33 and discharge to the outside of the sewage tank combination, so that the sewage will not reach the heat dissipation passage 22 of the vacuum cleaner fan, and will not cause damage to the vacuum cleaner fan.

[0051] As shown in Figure 7 , a floor cleaning machine includes a cleaning head combination 9, a main body combination 6 and a handle combination 7.

[0052] As shown in Figure 8 , 9 , the cleaning head combination 9 includes a front shell 92, a bottom shell 91, an upper shell 101, a suction port 100, a cleaning roller assembly 93, a bottom cover 94, a front blocking structure 95, a side blocking structure 96, a rear blocking structure 97, a rear wheel 98, a front wheel 99, a water pump 104 and a connecting hose 103.

[0053] As shown in Figure 9As shown, the cleaning roller assembly 93 includes a roller support 931 and a cleaning layer 932.

[0054] like Figure 9 As shown, the bottom shell 91 includes a water tank 91120, a water nozzle 9114, a water squeezing structure 9116, and a drainage channel 9117. Figure 7 , 8 As shown, the main body assembly 6 includes the main body 1, vacuum cleaner fan 2, wastewater tank assembly 3, and battery pack 5.

[0055] like Figure 10 As shown, the handle assembly 7 includes a handle 71, control buttons 72 and 73, and a display screen 74.
