The front end of the brush head 30 can also be retracted behind the front end of the bend 10 to shorten its length and facilitate storage.

[0027] In the above scheme, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the bend 10 includes an arc-shaped pipe section and a straight pipe section. The brush head 30 is sleeved on the straight pipe section. The inner wall of the brush head 30 is provided with at least one axially extending guide rib 33. The outer wall of the straight pipe section of the bend 10 is provided with guide grooves 14 that are fitted one by one with the guide ribs 33 to constrain the sliding of the brush head 30. At the same time, the brush head 30 is also provided with an elastic buckle 34. The straight pipe section of the bend 10 is provided with a slide that cooperates with the elastic buckle 34. The slide is provided with locking grooves 15 at both ends for engaging and locking with the elastic buckle 34. In this way, the brush head 30 can be locked in the extended state or the retracted state by respectively inserting the elastic buckle 34 into the two locking grooves 15 of the bend 10.

[0028] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 and Figure 5As shown, the air regulating assembly 20 includes a cover plate 21, a push button 22, and a baffle plate 23. The cover plate 21 is a thin-shell structure with an open lower end and is fixedly mounted on the bend 10, specifically on the straight section of the bend 10 or at the transition between the curved section and the straight section. An axially extending sliding boss 12 is provided on the outer wall of the bend 10 corresponding to the sealing area of ​​the cover plate 21. The sliding boss 12 has an air outlet area 121 at its front end, which has several air outlet holes communicating with the inner cavity of the bend 10. A passing air area 213 is provided on the top wall of the cover plate 21, opposite to the air outlet area 121. The passing air area 213 has several passing air holes, preferably both the passing air holes and the air outlet holes are strip-shaped holes with the extending axis of the passing air holes... The line is arranged perpendicular to the extension axis of the air outlet; the baffle plate 23 is set inside the cover plate 21 and is slidably placed on the sliding boss 12 of the bend 10; the push button 22 is slidably set on the top wall of the cover plate 21 and has a latching foot 221 that extends into the cover plate 21 to link the movement of the baffle plate 23; the cover plate 21 has a corresponding sliding opening 211 for the latching foot 221 to pass through and constrain its movement; thus, by controlling the sliding of the push button 22, the baffle plate 23 can be controlled to slide on the sliding boss 12 to adjust the flow area between the air outlet area 121 and the air passage area 213, so as to achieve the purpose of adjusting the air volume; in order to ensure the blocking effect of the baffle plate 23, a sponge pad or rubber pad is provided on the lower surface of the baffle plate 23 that is used to cooperate with the air outlet area 121.

[0029] In the above scheme, such as Figure 3 As shown, a receiving area 11 is formed by a downward recess on the outer wall of the bend 10 for the cover plate 21 to be fully embedded. A latch 122 is provided on both sides of the sliding boss 12 corresponding to its front end. A locking block structure that cooperates with the latch 122 is provided on the peripheral wall of the cover plate 21, thus constraining the front end of the cover plate 21. A fixing post 13 is provided in the receiving area 11 corresponding to the rear side of the sliding boss 12, so that the lower end of the cover plate 21 can be embedded in the receiving area 11 of the bend 10 in the horizontal direction. The cover plate 21 is constrained, and the screws passing through the top wall of the cover plate 21 and screwed into the fixing post 13 can achieve vertical constraint, so that the cover plate 21 is firmly connected to the bend 10, which also simplifies the assembly between the air regulating assembly 20 and the bend 10 and improves the assembly efficiency. Preferably, the receiving area 11 is provided with a constraint rib on the inner side of its outer edge, and the distance between the constraint rib and the outer edge of the receiving area 11 is the thickness of the cover plate 21, so that the cover plate 21 can be better constrained on the bend 10.

[0030] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 and Figure 5As shown, a recessed platform 212 is provided on the top wall of the cover plate 21 for the push button 22 to slide and be embedded. Slide openings 211 are provided on both sides of the recessed platform 212, and corresponding locking feet 221 are provided on both sides of the push button 22. Corresponding linkage notches 231 are provided on both sides of the wind deflector 23 for the lower ends of the locking feet 221 to engage. Thus, the push button 22 can move synchronously with the wind deflector 23 by passing the locking feet 221 through the slide openings 211 and inserting into the linkage notches 231. Preferably, a guide slider is provided on the lower surface of the bottom wall of the recessed platform 212, and a guide on the wind deflector 23 is provided to cooperate with the guide slider. The guide groove 232, through the cooperation of the guide slider and the guide groove 232, can constrain the movement trajectory of the wind deflector 23, making it move in a directional manner on the sliding boss 12; preferably, the top wall of the push button 22 is recessed downward to form an open recess 222 that is supported on the sliding boss 12, and the upper surface of the bottom wall of the recess 212 is provided with a faceplate 24 that cooperates with the recess 222. The faceplate 24 is marked with different usage scenarios or wind levels, so that by sliding the push button 22 on the faceplate 24, the recess 222 can circle the corresponding marking, so that the user can clearly know the applicable usage scenario in this state.

[0031] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has a simple and reasonable structure. The air regulating component is modularly designed and can be fixed by embedding it in the receiving area of ​​the bend and by a single screw. This simplifies the disassembly and assembly of the air regulating component and the bend and improves production efficiency. At the same time, the air regulating component adjusts the flow area between the air outlet area and the air passage area by pushing the baffle plate to adjust the air volume.

[0032] The above-disclosed embodiments are merely examples of the present utility model. However, the present utility model is not limited thereto, and any variations that can be conceived by those skilled in the art should fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
