Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of cleaning tool technology, and specifically relates to a rotating cleaning tool with lifting function. Background Technology

[0002] Mops and mop buckets are widely used in daily life. There are many types of mop buckets available, offering diverse functions. Among them, spin mops and mop buckets are among the most convenient everyday products for mopping that have emerged in recent years. They are generally divided into foot-operated, hand-operated, and electric types, which are driven by foot, hand, or electric power to rotate the cleaning mechanism inside the mop bucket. Hand-operated mops are the most common; when using them, the mop head is immersed in the mop bucket and placed on the cleaning mechanism, and the mop handle is rotated by hand to wet and clean the mop.

[0003] Chinese patent CN201410047623.4 discloses a cleaning tool. In this technical solution, a mop and its matching mop bucket are included. The lower end of the mop handle is hinged to a mop head with a wiping agent. The mop handle includes at least an inner rod and an outer rod, which can rotate relative to each other. The mop handle can be shortened and lengthened by a sleeve connection. A drive mechanism and an anti-pull-out mechanism are provided between the inner and outer rods. The mop bucket contains a rotatable spin-dry basket, which rotates under the drive of the rotating mop head. The mop bucket also contains a washing section. The washing section has a rotatable washing frame. During washing, the washing frame abuts against the mop head, pressing down and shortening the mop handle. The drive mechanism drives the rod connected to the mop head and the mop head to rotate. The wiping agent exposed or protruding from the washing frame rotates under the drive of the mop head, and the washing frame rotates under the drive of the rotating mop head for washing. The washing section and the spin-dry basket are connected at the bottom.

[0004] Chinese patent CN202321235171.3 discloses a rotating mop set, which has a lifting mechanism inside the mop bucket. The lifting mechanism can position the mop head at different heights. When the lifting mechanism positions the mop head at a low position, the mop head rotates and cleans in the cleaning zone. When the lifting mechanism positions the mop head at a high position, the mop head rotates and dehydrates in the dehydration zone.

[0005] In existing technology, since the mop's wiping material is long and narrow, it is usually washed first in the water stored in the washing area and then spun dry in the spin-drying area. The left and right partitioned mop buckets tend to increase the overall product's footprint. Furthermore, the water in the washing area is easily contaminated and difficult to clean during washing, making it hard for debris on the wiping material to fall off. Washing again after spin-drying can increase the number of washes and workload. Utility Model Content

[0006] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a rotating cleaning tool with lifting function that can spray water for cleaning, occupies a small area, and is easy to operate.

[0007] The purpose of this utility model is achieved as follows:

[0008] A rotating cleaning tool with a lifting function includes a rotating mop and a mop bucket. The rotating mop includes a mop handle and a mop head. The mop head is provided with a wiping agent. The mop bucket includes a washing area and a wringing area, with the wringing area located above the washing area. The mop bucket is provided with a lifting mechanism and a water pump. When the mop head is supported on the lifting mechanism, the mop handle drives the mop head to rotate. The lifting mechanism drives the water pump to draw water, and the outlet of the water pump extends to the washing area.

[0009] The lifting mechanism can position the mop head at the height of the washing and wringing zones. When the lifting mechanism positions the mop head in the washing zone, the wiping material passes downward through the water pump outlet. The lifting mechanism is connected to the water pump, and the water from the water pump outlet washes the wiping material. When the lifting mechanism positions the mop head in the wringing zone, the lifting mechanism is disconnected from the water pump, and the wiping material rotates independently to wring water.

[0010] The mechanism is further configured such that the lifting mechanism and the water pump are engaged and disengaged via a connector. When the lifting mechanism positions the mop head in the cleaning area, the lifting mechanism and the water pump work together, and the rotating mop head drives the water pump to draw water. When the lifting mechanism positions the mop head in the wringing area, the lifting mechanism and the water pump disengage, and the mop head rotates independently to wring water.

[0011] The lifting mechanism is further configured as follows: the lifting mechanism includes a support base, a support shaft that moves axially within the support base, and a first lifting seat disposed at one end of the support shaft. The outer wall of the first lifting seat is provided with an outwardly protruding connector. The water pump is provided with a stop that cooperates with the connector. When the connector abuts against the stop, it drives the water pump to pump water. When the lifting mechanism positions the mop head in the wringing zone, the connector and the stop disengage, and the water pump stops pumping water.

[0012] The configuration is further defined as follows: a first thrust bearing is sleeved on the support shaft, a first lifting seat abuts against the first thrust bearing, and the first lifting seat rotates relative to the first thrust bearing.

[0013] The support shaft is further configured such that a mounting seat is provided on the support shaft, and the mounting seat extends outward to form a mounting part for mounting the first thrust bearing.

[0014] The pump is further configured such that: the pump includes a pump housing and an impeller, the impeller is sleeved outside the support base, the upper end of the impeller is provided with a clutch groove for accommodating the connecting piece, a stop piece is provided in the clutch groove, and the pump housing is connected to a drain pipe for draining water to the cleaning area.

[0015] A further configuration is provided: a second thrust bearing is provided between the support base and the impeller, and the impeller abuts against the second thrust bearing so that the impeller is suspended in the water pump housing.

[0016] The configuration is further defined as follows: a first cover plate is provided on the opening of the support base; the impeller has a shell structure; a second cover plate is provided inside the impeller; the second cover plate is rotatably connected to the first cover plate via a second thrust bearing; and the support shaft of the lifting mechanism passes through the first and second cover plates.

[0017] The mop bucket is further configured such that: the bucket body includes a bucket body and a basket inserted into the opening of the bucket body; the bucket body is divided into a clean water area and a wastewater area by an inner bucket; the water pump and lifting mechanism are located in the clean water area; and the water from the washing area and the dehydration area flows into the wastewater area through the bottom of the basket.

[0018] The basket is further configured such that: a number of spaced scraper strips are provided at the bottom of the basket, and a guide groove is formed between the scraper strips; a through hole is provided near the edge of the basket in the guide groove, and the through hole is located above the sewage zone.

[0019] The advantages of this utility model over the prior art are as follows:

[0020] 1. The lifting mechanism and water pump are installed inside the mop bucket to achieve linkage between the lifting mechanism and the water pump. When the lifting mechanism positions the mop head in the washing area, the wiping material passes downward through the water pump outlet. The lifting mechanism is connected to the water pump, and the water from the water pump outlet washes the wiping material. When the lifting mechanism positions the mop head in the wringing area, the lifting mechanism is disconnected from the water pump, and the wiping material rotates and wrings water independently. This allows the wiping material to be cleaned while rotating during washing. The liquid from the water pump outlet during rotation can better clean the wiping material. When wringing is needed, simply position the mop head in the wringing area with the lifting mechanism, and it will rotate and wring water independently. The operation is simple.

[0021] 2. Setting up a first thrust bearing and a second thrust bearing can make the mop head rotate more smoothly, reduce the shaking caused by eccentricity, and also reduce the noise during rotation. Attached Figure Description

[0042] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:

[0043] See Figures 1 to 11As shown, a rotating cleaning tool with lifting function includes a rotating mop and a mop bucket. The rotating mop includes a mop handle 11 and a mop head 12. The rotating mop can be a conventional rotating mop on the market, as long as it can drive the mop head 12 to rotate. In this embodiment, the specific structure of the mop handle 11 is the mop handle 11 structure in patent CN220236807U. The mop handle 11 includes an inner rod and an outer rod. The lower end of the inner rod is connected to the mop head 12. The inner and outer rods are sleeved together. A driving mechanism is provided between the inner and outer rods. The driving mechanism converts the telescopic movement of the mop handle 11 into the rotational movement of the mop head 12. The mop head 12 is provided with a wiping material (not shown in the attached drawings). The mop bucket includes a washing area and a wringing area, with the wringing area located above the washing area. The mop bucket is provided with a lifting mechanism and a water pump. When the mop head 12 is supported on the lifting mechanism, the mop handle 11 drives the mop head 12 to rotate. The lifting mechanism drives the water pump to draw water, and the water pump outlet 55 extends to the washing area.

[0044] The lifting mechanism positions the mop head 12 at the height of the washing and wringing zones. When the lifting mechanism positions the mop head 12 in the washing zone, the wiping material passes downwards through the water pump outlet 55. The lifting mechanism is connected to the water pump, and the water from the water pump outlet 55 washes the wiping material. When the lifting mechanism positions the mop head 12 in the wringing zone, the lifting mechanism is disconnected from the water pump, and the wiping material rotates independently to wring water. This allows the wiping material to be cleaned while rotating during washing. The liquid from the water pump outlet 55 during rotation provides better cleaning of the wiping material, and when wringing is needed, simply position the mop head 12 in the wringing zone using the lifting mechanism for independent rotation and wringing, making operation simple.

[0045] In this embodiment, the lifting mechanism and the water pump are engaged and disengaged through the connector 6. When the lifting mechanism positions the mop head 12 in the cleaning area, the lifting mechanism and the water pump are linked, and the rotating mop head 12 drives the water pump to pump water. When the lifting mechanism positions the mop head 12 in the wringing area, the lifting mechanism and the water pump are disengaged, and the wiped item rotates independently to wring water. In this way, the water pump does not work during wringing, and the user does not need to press the mop handle 11 hard, saving effort.

[0046] The lifting mechanism can be a conventional mechanism with high and low positions on the market. The high position positions the mop head 12 in the wringing zone, and the low position positions the mop head 12 in the washing zone.

[0047] The preferred lifting mechanism in this embodiment includes a support base 29, a support shaft 34 that moves axially within the support base 29, and a first lifting seat 35 disposed at one end of the support shaft 34. The inner wall of the support base 29 is provided with a lifting channel 32 and a high-position support groove 33. A second lifting seat 36 is disposed at the end of the support shaft 34. A snap-fit ​​shaft 37, adapted to the lifting channel 32 and the high-position support groove 33, is disposed around the periphery of the second lifting seat 36. The second lifting seat 36 is fixed to the support shaft 34 by a snap ring. The lifting channel 32 and the high-position support groove 33 can be provided in one, two, or three sets, or symmetrically arranged in two, three, or four sets, etc. The snap-fit ​​shaft 37 moves axially along the lifting channel 32 with the support shaft 34 and then enters the high-position support groove 33; the snap-fit ​​shaft 37 moves from the high-position support groove 33 to the lifting channel 32 with the support shaft 34 and moves to the bottom of the lifting channel 32. The outer wall of the first lifting seat 35 is provided with an outwardly protruding connector 6. The water pump is provided with a stop 531 that cooperates with the connector 6. After the connector 6 and the stop 531 abut against each other, the water pump is driven to pump water. When the lifting mechanism positions the mop head 12 in the wringing area, that is, when the snap-fit ​​shaft 37 is located in the high-position support groove 33, the connector 6 and the stop 531 are disengaged, and the water pump stops pumping water.

[0048] A locking block 38 is threadedly fixed to the first lifting seat 35. The locking block 38 is hexagonal. The mop head 12 is provided with a limiting groove 14 for housing the locking block 38. A pair of elastic buckles 13 are provided on the mop head 12. The elastic buckles 13 are formed by bending elastic metal or elastic plastic. The elastic buckles 13 abut against the locking block 38 and restrict the rotation of the locking block 38. After the locking block 38 is housed in the limiting groove 14, it is abutted by the elastic buckles 13 to achieve rotation restriction.

[0049] In order to make the mop head 12 rotate more smoothly, reduce the shaking caused by eccentricity, and also reduce the noise during rotation, a first thrust bearing 71 is sleeved on the support shaft 34, and a first lifting seat 35 abuts against the first thrust bearing 71, and the first lifting seat 35 rotates relative to the first thrust bearing 71.

[0050] To facilitate the installation of the first thrust bearing 71, a mounting seat 4 is provided on the support shaft 34, and the mounting seat 4 extends outward to form a mounting part 41 for installing the first thrust bearing 71.

[0051] The water pump includes a pump housing 51 and an impeller 52. The impeller 52 is sleeved on the support base 29. The upper end of the impeller 52 is provided with a clutch groove 53 for accommodating the connecting piece 6. A stop piece 531 is provided in the clutch groove 53. The pump housing 51 is connected to a drain pipe 54 for draining water to the cleaning area. In this embodiment, the pump housing 51 covers the driving blades of the impeller 52 at the bottom of the barrel 21. One end of the pump housing 51 extends towards the side wall of the barrel 21 to form a water supply channel 56. The drain pipe 54 is installed at the end of the water supply channel 56. The outlet end of the drain pipe 54 is provided with a detachable water spraying element 57. The water spraying element 57 is provided with several water spraying holes 58 facing the direction of the wiping object. The water spraying holes 58 form a water outlet 55. When the water pump is rotating, the water sprayed from the water spraying holes 58 can spray the wiping object.

[0052] In order to make the mop head 12 rotate more smoothly, reduce the shaking caused by eccentricity, and also reduce the noise during rotation, a second thrust bearing 72 is provided between the support base 29 and the impeller 52. The impeller 52 abuts against the second thrust bearing 72 so that the impeller 52 is suspended in the water pump housing 51.

[0053] A first cover plate 8 is provided on the opening of the support base 29. The impeller 52 has a shell structure, and a second cover plate 9 is provided inside the impeller 52. The second cover plate 9 is rotatably connected to the first cover plate 8 through a second thrust bearing 72. The support shaft 34 of the lifting mechanism passes through the first cover plate 8 and the second cover plate 9. The support shaft 34 passes through the first cover plate 8, the second cover plate 9, the impeller 52, and the mounting base 4. A guide groove 81 is provided on the first cover plate 8. When the locking shaft 37 moves upward to the guide groove 81, the locking shaft 37 rotates circumferentially through the guide inclined surface 82 of the guide groove 81, thereby moving the locking shaft 37 from the upper part of the lifting channel 32 to the upper part of the high-position support groove 33, or moving the locking shaft 37 from the upper part of the high-position support groove 33 to the upper part of the lifting channel 32. The guide groove 81 is correspondingly provided above the high-position support groove 33 and the lifting channel 32.

[0054] The mop bucket includes a bucket body 21 and a basket 22 inserted into the opening of the bucket body 21. The bucket body 21 is divided into a clean water area 27 and a wastewater area 28 by an inner bucket 26. The inner bucket 26 and the bucket body 21 can be integrated or separate. The water pump and lifting mechanism are located in the clean water area 27. Water from the washing and dehydration areas flows into the wastewater area 28 through the bottom of the basket 22. The bottom of the basket 22 covers the opening of the washing area. The support shaft 34 passes through the bottom of the basket 22, which facilitates the separation of clean water and wastewater. At the same time, a water inlet pipe 59 extends upward from the clean water area 27. The water inlet of the water inlet pipe 59 extends to the upper end face of the basket 22, and the user can add water to the clean water area 27 through the water inlet.

[0055] The bottom of the basket 22 is provided with several spaced-apart scraper strips 23. In this embodiment, the scraper strips 23 are radially distributed, and a guide groove 24 is formed between the scraper strips 23. A through hole 25 is provided in the guide groove 24 near the edge of the basket 22, and the through hole 25 is located above the sewage area 28. The bottom of the basket 22 is also provided with a brush, which cleans hair during the wiping of the object.

[0056] During operation, first, the mop head 12 abuts against the support shaft 34, and the locking block 38 abuts against the elastic buckle 13. Then, the mop handle 11 is operated, which drives the mop head 12 to rotate. The connecting piece 6 abuts against the stop piece 531 and drives the water pump to draw water. The water sprayed from the water pump's spray hole 58 sprays water to clean the wiped object. When the user lifts the mop upwards, the locking block 38 and elastic buckle 13 on the mop head 12 abut against each other, causing the support shaft 34 to move slightly upwards. The locking shaft 37 located at the bottom of the lifting channel 32 moves along the lifting channel 32 towards the guide groove 81, and moves through the guide surface to the other end of the guide groove 81. When the connecting piece 6 moves upward from the clutch groove 53 and the locking shaft 37 moves to the tail position of the guide groove 81, the user feels that the mop can no longer move upward and moves the mop downward. The locking shaft 37 moves from the guide groove 81 to the high support groove 33. At this time, when the mop head 12 is positioned in the dehydration zone, the connecting piece 6 is disengaged from the stop piece 531, the water pump loses the driving force of the mop head 12 and stops pumping water. The mop head 12 independently drives the wiping object to rotate and dehydrate. The water from washing and dehydration falls into the bottom of the basket 22, passes through the through hole 25, and finally falls into the sewage zone 28.

[0057] The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes made to the structure, shape, and principle of the present utility model should be covered within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
