Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of cleaning product technology, and more particularly to a cleaning device and cleaning equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Floor scrubbers, vacuum cleaners, and robotic vacuum cleaners are common household cleaning devices that can automatically wet, scrub, and wipe the surface to be cleaned. These devices are equipped with cleaning components and air intakes. The air intakes work in conjunction with the cleaning components to collect dust, hair, and debris from the surface to be cleaned. After cleaning is completed, the cleaning device is placed in the base station to begin charging and self-cleaning.

[0003] The self-cleaning process of the cleaning device involves a multi-water system. Currently, the base station of the cleaning device can usually only clean the cleaning components. If it is necessary to clean the inside of the air intake of the cleaning device, it is generally necessary to add a solenoid valve or water pump to divert the water flow, so as to achieve self-cleaning of the cleaning components and the air intake separately.

[0004] However, this approach not only requires the addition of electrical components, but also the design of sensing and control circuits, resulting in a complex structure and high cost. Utility Model Content

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this application provides a cleaning device and cleaning equipment. The cleaning device includes a mechanical water distribution valve to control the water flow in the cleaning device to clean the air intake, which simplifies the product structure and reduces the product cost.

[0006] This application provides a cleaning device, including a device body, a cleaning component, a water distribution valve, and a water supply component; the cleaning component is disposed in the device body; the device body has a first air intake.

[0007] The water distribution valve includes a valve body and a sliding member. The valve body has a water passage chamber, a water inlet, a first water outlet, and a second water outlet. The water inlet, the first water outlet, and the second water outlet are all connected to the water passage chamber. The water supply component is connected to the water inlet. The first water outlet is configured to supply water to the first air intake, and the second water outlet is configured to supply water to the cleaning component. The sliding member is slidably disposed in the water passage chamber to close or open the first water outlet.

[0008] When the cleaning device provided in this application embodiment is working, the sliding member closes the first water outlet of the valve body, and only the second water outlet supplies water to the cleaning components to moisten or soften the stains; when the cleaning device is self-cleaning, the sliding member opens the first water outlet of the valve body, and the first water outlet and the second water outlet simultaneously discharge water to clean the relevant components. The water distribution valve is mechanically controlled, with a simple structure and easy operation.

[0009] As an optional implementation, the inlet is opposite to the first end of the water passage cavity, and the first outlet is opposite to the second end of the water passage cavity; the slider is configured to slide between the first end and the second end of the water passage cavity; the slider has a water passage hole, and when the slider opens the first outlet, the inlet communicates with the first outlet through the water passage hole.

[0010] With this configuration, by controlling the sliding member to slide between the first and second ends of the water passage cavity, the connection and isolation between the water inlet and the first water outlet can be controlled, thereby controlling the water output of the first water outlet and improving the simplicity of the structure.

[0011] As an optional implementation, the water distribution valve further includes a first sealing element, which is arranged around the periphery of the sliding element and abuts against the inner wall of the sliding element and the water passage cavity; when the sliding element is at the second end of the water passage cavity, the first sealing element seals the first water outlet.

[0012] With this configuration, the first sealing element abuts against the inner wall of the sliding element and the water passage cavity, forming a tight seal to prevent water from leaking out from the gap between the sliding element and the inner wall of the water passage cavity when not needed, thus enhancing the sealing performance of the device.

[0013] As an optional implementation, the water distribution valve further includes a second sealing element located at the second end of the water passage cavity. When the sliding element is located at the second end of the water passage cavity, the sliding element abuts against the second sealing element.

[0014] With this configuration, when the sliding member is fully slid to the second end of the water passage cavity, its lower end face is in close contact with the second sealing member, preventing water from leaking from the lower end face of the sliding member and enhancing the sealing performance of the device.

[0015] As an optional implementation, one of the second seal and the sliding member is provided with an annular sealing groove, and the other of the second seal and the sliding member is provided with an annular sealing protrusion, the annular sealing protrusion abutting against the annular sealing groove; the water passage hole is located within the area enclosed by the annular sealing protrusion and the annular sealing groove.

[0016] With this configuration, the protrusions of the second seal and the sliding member abut against the sealing groove, preventing water from leaking from the water inlet to the first outlet, further enhancing the sealing performance of the device. At the same time, it can also fix the sliding member, improving stability.

[0017] As an optional implementation, the water distribution valve further includes an elastic element disposed within the water passage cavity, the elastic element abutting between a first end of the water passage cavity and a sliding element; the elastic element is configured to apply a force toward the second sealing element to the sliding element.

[0018] With this configuration, when the first outlet needs to be closed, there is no need to manually operate the sliding component. Simply remove the external force applied to the sliding component, and the elastic component will automatically push the sliding component towards the second sealing component to form a seal, thus improving the ease of operation.

[0019] As an optional implementation, there are multiple water passage holes, which are spaced apart and all penetrate the opposite ends of the sliding member.

[0020] With this configuration, when the sliding member is away from the second end of the water passage cavity, multiple water passages can pass water simultaneously, ensuring the water flow rate of the first outlet and improving the self-cleaning effect.

[0021] As an optional implementation, the valve body includes a bracket and a base, which surround to form a water passage cavity; the base has a through hole, and the sliding member has an abutment portion that passes through the through hole. The abutment portion is configured to abut against a structure outside the water distribution valve to drive the sliding member to slide in the water passage cavity.

[0022] With this configuration, when the external structure of the water distribution valve comes into contact with the sliding part and pressure is applied to it, the first outlet will connect with the inlet and water will flow out, improving the ease of operation.

[0023] As an optional implementation, the cleaning assembly includes a cleaning component and a scraping component. A first air intake is located on the rear side of the cleaning component along the cleaning direction of the cleaning device, and the scraping component is located on the front side of the cleaning component along the cleaning direction of the cleaning device. A second water outlet is configured to output cleaning water to the scraping component.

[0024] With this setup, the first air intake can collect residual or debris picked up by the cleaning components, while the second water outlet can supply water to the scraper to moisten or soften the stains, which are then scraped away by the scraper, thus improving the cleaning effect.

[0025] As an optional implementation, the main body of the device also includes a second air inlet, which is located on the front side of the cleaning component along the cleaning direction of the cleaning device. The second air inlet is opposite to the scraping component, and the second water outlet is connected to the second air inlet.

[0026] With this configuration, the second water outlet can deliver water to moisten or soften stains, which are then scraped away by the scraper. The second air intake collects easily sucked-in debris, and the cleaning component cleans up any remaining stains. The close cooperation of all components improves cleaning efficiency and enhances cleaning effectiveness.

[0027] This application provides a cleaning device, including a cleaning base station and the aforementioned cleaning apparatus. The cleaning base station is provided with a top opening member. When the cleaning apparatus is placed on the cleaning base station, the top opening member abuts against the sliding member of the water distribution valve in the cleaning apparatus to open the first outlet of the water distribution valve.

[0028] With this setup, the cleaning device only needs to be placed on the cleaning base station to open the first water outlet of the water distribution valve to clean the first air intake. At the same time, the second water outlet can clean the cleaning parts, the scraping parts, and the second air intake, improving the convenience of operation and the efficiency of self-cleaning.

[0029] This application provides a cleaning device and equipment. The cleaning device includes a main body, a cleaning component, a water distribution valve, and a water supply component. The cleaning component is disposed in the main body. The main body has a first air intake. The water distribution valve includes a valve body and a sliding member. The valve body has a water passage chamber, a water inlet, a first water outlet, and a second water outlet, all of which are connected to the water passage chamber. The water supply component is connected to the water inlet. The first water outlet is configured to supply water to the first air intake, and the second water outlet is configured to supply water to the cleaning component. The sliding member is slidably disposed in the water passage chamber to close or open the first water outlet. The water valve in this cleaning device is mechanically controlled, has a simple structure, and is easy to control.

[0045] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0046] Floor scrubbers, vacuum cleaners, and robotic vacuum cleaners are common household cleaning devices that can automatically wet, scrub, and wipe the surface to be cleaned. These devices are equipped with cleaning components and air intakes. The air intakes work in conjunction with the cleaning components to collect dust, hair, and debris from the surface to be cleaned. After cleaning is completed, the cleaning device is placed in the base station to begin charging and self-cleaning.

[0047] The self-cleaning process of cleaning devices involves a multi-water system. Currently, the base station of the cleaning device can usually only clean the cleaning components. If it is necessary to clean the inside of the air intake of the cleaning device, it is generally necessary to add a solenoid valve or water pump to divert the water flow, thereby achieving self-cleaning of the cleaning components and the air intake separately. However, this method not only requires the addition of electrical components, but also the design of sensing circuits and control circuits, resulting in a complex structure and high cost.

[0048] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this application provides a cleaning device and cleaning equipment. The cleaning device includes a mechanical water distribution valve to control the water flow in the cleaning device to clean the air intake, thus simplifying the product structure and reducing product costs.

[0049] The following is an example illustrating the application scenarios of the cleaning device provided in the embodiments of this application.

[0050] The cleaning device provided in this application embodiment is a cleaning device with a multi-waterway system. Specifically, the product type of the cleaning device in this application embodiment may include, but is not limited to, floor scrubbers, vacuum cleaners, sweeping robots, etc. This application embodiment does not make specific limitations in this regard.

[0051] like Figures 1 to 4 This application provides a cleaning device 10, including a device body 100, a cleaning component 200, a water distribution valve 300, and a water supply component 400; the cleaning component 200 is disposed on the device body 100; the device body 100 has a first air intake 101.

[0052] The water distribution valve 300 includes a valve body 310 and a sliding member 320. The valve body 310 has a water passage chamber 311, a water inlet 312, a first water outlet 313, and a second water outlet 314. The water inlet 312, the first water outlet 313, and the second water outlet 314 are all connected to the water passage chamber 311. The water supply component 400 is connected to the water inlet 312. The first water outlet 313 is configured to supply water to the first air intake 101, and the second water outlet 314 is configured to supply water to the cleaning component 200. The sliding member 320 is slidably disposed in the water passage chamber 311 to close or open the first water outlet 313.

[0053] The cleaning device 10 provided in this application embodiment has a main body 100 as its basic structure, which supports other components. The cleaning component 200 is disposed on the main body 100 and acts directly on the surface to be cleaned to remove dust, stains and other dirt. The water distribution valve 300 is used to control the distribution of water flow. The water supply component 400 can be a water tank, water pipe or other device that can continuously supply water flow to supply water to the cleaning device 10. The first air intake 101 is used to collect dust, hair, debris and other dirt from the area to be cleaned.

[0054] The water distribution valve 300 includes a valve body 310 and a sliding member 320. When the cleaning device 10 is working, the sliding member 320 closes the first water outlet 313 of the valve body 310, and only the second water outlet 314 supplies water to the cleaning component 200 to moisten or soften stains. When the cleaning device 10 is self-cleaning, the sliding member 320 opens the first water outlet 313 of the valve body 310, and the first water outlet 313 and the second water outlet 314 simultaneously discharge water to clean the relevant components. The water distribution valve 300 controls the water discharge of the first water outlet 313 by sliding the sliding member 320.

[0055] As an optional implementation, the inlet 312 is opposite to the first end 311a of the water passage cavity 311, and the first outlet 313 is opposite to the second end 311b of the water passage cavity 311; the slider 320 is configured to slide between the first end 311a and the second end 311b of the water passage cavity 311; the slider 320 has a water passage hole 321, and when the slider 320 opens the first outlet 313, the inlet 312 communicates with the first outlet 313 through the water passage hole 321.

[0056] like Figure 2 The inlet 312 is connected to the water supply component 400 and can receive water flow from the water supply component 400. When the sliding member 320 closes the first outlet 313, the water flow enters from the first end 311a of the water passage cavity 311 and flows out from the second outlet 314. When the sliding member 320 opens the first outlet 313, the water flow enters from the first end 311a of the water passage cavity 311, part of it flows out from the second outlet 314, and part of it flows out from the first outlet 313 through the water passage hole 321 of the sliding member 320.

[0057] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 As an optional implementation, the water distribution valve 300 further includes a first sealing member 330, which is arranged around the periphery of the sliding member 320 and abuts against the inner wall of the sliding member 320 and the water passage cavity 311. When the sliding member 320 is at the second end 311b of the water passage cavity 311, the first sealing member 330 seals the first water outlet 313.

[0058] Understandably, the first seal 330 abuts against the inner wall of the sliding member 320 and the water passage cavity 311, forming a tight seal to prevent water from leaking from the gap between the sliding member 320 and the inner wall of the water passage cavity 311. When the sliding member 320 slides to the second end 311b of the water passage cavity 311, the first seal 330 will fit tightly around the first water outlet 313, thereby effectively sealing the first water outlet 313.

[0059] The first seal 330 can be a rubber, plastic or metal seal with good elasticity and water resistance, and the first seal 330 is in close contact with the inner wall of the water passage cavity 311.

[0060] As an optional implementation, the water distribution valve 300 further includes a second sealing member 340, which is located at the second end 311b of the water passage cavity 311. When the sliding member 320 is located at the second end 311b of the water passage cavity 311, the sliding member 320 abuts against the second sealing member 340.

[0061] Understandably, when the sliding member 320 is fully slid to the second end 311b of the water passage cavity 311, its lower end face is in close contact with the second seal 340 to prevent water from leaking from the lower end face of the sliding member 320 and entering the first outlet 313. In particular, the sliding shaft of the sliding member 320 can form a seal with the side of the second seal 340 to prevent water from flowing into the external space through the gap between the sliding shaft and the side of the second seal 340.

[0062] The second seal 340 can be a rubber, plastic or metal seal with good elasticity and water resistance, and the second seal 340 and the sliding shaft of the sliding member 320 are in close contact.

[0063] As an optional implementation, one of the second seal 340 and the sliding member 320 is provided with an annular sealing groove 341, and the other of the second seal 340 and the sliding member 320 is provided with an annular sealing protrusion 342, the annular sealing protrusion 342 abutting against the annular sealing groove 341; the water passage hole 321 is located within the area enclosed by the annular sealing protrusion 342 and the annular sealing groove 341.

[0064] Understandably, when the sliding member 320 slides to the position where it contacts the second seal 340, the annular sealing protrusion 342 will be tightly embedded in the annular sealing groove 341, forming a tight sealing connection, which significantly improves the sealing performance. At the same time, it can fix the sliding member 320.

[0065] As an optional implementation, the water distribution valve 300 further includes an elastic element 350 disposed in the water passage cavity 311 and abutting between the first end 311a of the water passage cavity 311 and the sliding member 320; the elastic element 350 is configured to apply a force toward the second sealing member 340 to the sliding member 320.

[0066] Understandably, when it is necessary to close the first outlet 313, there is no need to manually operate the sliding member 320. Simply remove the external force applied to the sliding member 320, and the elastic member 350 will automatically push the sliding member 320 towards the second sealing member 340 to form a seal. The elastic member 350 can be a spring, an elastic pad, or other form of elastic element.

[0067] For example, the elastic element 350 is a stainless steel spring. When the cleaning device 10 is performing cleaning work, no external force acts on the sliding element 320. The stainless steel spring abuts the sliding element 320 against the second end 311b of the water passage cavity 311, and the first water outlet 313 is closed.

[0068] As an optional implementation, there are multiple water passage holes 321, which are spaced apart and all penetrate the opposite ends of the sliding member 320.

[0069] There are at least two water passage holes 321, and their cross-sectional shape can be circular or polygonal. The water passage holes 321 are evenly distributed around the sliding member 320. Multiple water passage holes 321 can ensure that the water flow of the first water outlet 313 can meet the cleaning requirements.

[0070] As an optional implementation, the valve body 310 includes a bracket 310a and a base 310b, which surround to form a water passage cavity 311. The base 310b is provided with a through hole, and the sliding member 320 has an abutment portion 322, which passes through the through hole. The abutment portion 322 is configured to abut against a structure outside the water distribution valve 300 to drive the sliding member 320 to slide in the water passage cavity 311.

[0071] The valve body 310 consists of two parts: a bracket 310a and a base 310b. Together, they enclose a water passage cavity 311. The base 310b can be a frame or a support structure, used to fix and support the bracket 310a and components such as the sliding member 320. The bracket 310a is provided with an inlet 312, a first outlet 313, and a second outlet 314 for water flow. It is understood that when the external structure of the water distribution valve 300 abuts against the contact portion 322 of the sliding member 320 and applies pressure, the sliding member 320 will move towards the first end 311a, and the first outlet 313 will connect with the inlet 312 and water will flow out.

[0072] like Figure 1 As an optional implementation, the cleaning assembly 200 includes a cleaning element 210 and a scraper element 220. A first air intake 101 is disposed on the rear side of the cleaning element 210 along the cleaning direction of the cleaning device 10, and the scraper element 220 is disposed on the front side of the cleaning element 210 along the cleaning direction of the cleaning device 10. A second water outlet 314 is configured to output cleaning water to the scraper element 220.

[0073] Understandably, the scraper 220 is positioned in front of the cleaning component 210 along the cleaning direction of the cleaning device 10, and the second water outlet 314 is configured to output cleaning water to the scraper 220. This means that during the cleaning process, the cleaning water output from the second water outlet 314 can wet or soften stubborn stains, making it easier for the scraper 220 to remove stains from the surface to be cleaned. The cleaning component 210, as the main cleaning component, can be a roller brush. The cleaning component 210 follows the scraper 220 to clean most of the dirt and dust on the surface to be contacted. Finally, the first air intake 101 sucks the remaining dust and debris into the cleaning device 10.

[0074] As an optional implementation, the main body 100 of the device also includes a second air intake 102, which is located on the front side of the cleaning member 210 along the cleaning direction of the cleaning device 10. The second air intake 102 is opposite to the scraper member 220, and the second water outlet 314 is connected to the second air intake 102.

[0075] Understandably, the second air intake 102 is located on the front side of the cleaning component 210 along the cleaning direction of the cleaning device 10. The second air intake 102 is opposite to the scraper 220, ensuring that when the scraper 220 removes stains from the surface to be cleaned, the second air intake 102 can immediately suck in the generated debris, dust, or moisture into the cleaning device 10, thereby reducing the cleaning pressure on the cleaning component 210. The second water outlet 314 is connected to the second air intake 102, and the water is mainly output to the scraper 220 to moisten or soften stains; a small portion may be sucked in by the air intake.

[0076] like Figure 4This application provides a cleaning device, including a cleaning base station 20 and the aforementioned cleaning device 10. The cleaning base station 20 is provided with a top opening member 201. When the cleaning device 10 is placed on the cleaning base station 20, the top opening member 201 abuts against the sliding member 320 of the water distribution valve 300 in the cleaning device 10 to open the first water outlet 313 of the water distribution valve 300.

[0077] The cleaning base station 20 is a fixed part of the cleaning equipment, used for storing, charging, and cleaning the cleaning device 10. The cleaning device 10 is movable and used to perform actual cleaning tasks. When the cleaning device 10 is placed on the cleaning base station 20, the opening member 201 automatically contacts the abutment portion 322 of the sliding member 320 of the water distribution valve 300. The weight of the cleaning device 10 causes the opening member 201 to exert sufficient pressure on the abutment portion 322 of the sliding member 320 to counteract the force of the elastic member 350, causing the sliding member 320 to move towards the first end 311a, thereby opening the first outlet 313 of the water distribution valve 300.
