If "first" or "second" is used in the description, it is only for the purpose of distinguishing technical features and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance, or implicitly indicating the number of indicated technical features, or implicitly indicating the order of the indicated technical features.

[0030] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0031] See Figures 1 to 3 The present invention provides a cleaning and purification device, comprising: a housing 100, wherein a vertical channel 110 is provided inside the housing 100; a vacuum adsorption assembly 200, wherein the vacuum adsorption assembly 200 includes a collection bucket 210, an air pump 220 and an air suction pipe 230 disposed in the lower middle part of the housing 100, the collection bucket 210 being located within the vertical channel 110; and an air purification assembly 300, wherein the air purification assembly 300 includes a filter element 310 disposed within the vertical channel 110 and above the collection bucket 210 and a fan 320, wherein an air duct is defined between the vertical channel 110 and the collection bucket 210, which can communicate with the filter element 310 and the fan 320.

[0032] The above-mentioned cleaning and purification equipment installs a vacuum adsorption component 200 and an air purification component 300 within the housing 100, simultaneously achieving the dual functions of adsorbing foreign objects from the ground and purifying the air. Furthermore, the collection bin 210 is located within the vertical channel 110, and the area between the vertical channel 110 and the collection bin 210 constitutes the air duct required for the air purification component 300. This improves the structural compactness of the cleaning and purification equipment, achieving a small size and minimal footprint, and also helps reduce equipment costs. Of course, it is conceivable that the vacuum adsorption component 200 and the air purification component 300 can also be controlled independently for single-function operation.

[0033] See Figures 2 to 4 In some embodiments of this utility model, the top of the housing 100 is provided with an air outlet 120 communicating with the upper end of the vertical channel 110, the side of the housing 100 is provided with an air inlet 130 communicating with the air duct, the suction port of the air pump 220 is connected to the collection bucket 210, the inlet of the suction pipe 230 extends downward to the bottom of the housing 100, the outlet of the suction pipe 230 is connected to the collection bucket 210, and the air inlet 130 is located above the inlet of the suction pipe 230. It can be understood that the fan 320 drives the gas in the air duct to flow upward. After the external gas enters the air duct through the air inlet 130, it passes through the filter element 310 below and then exits vertically upward from the air outlet 120. The purified gas is discharged from the top of the housing 100 to avoid direct blowing on the human body and also facilitates diffusion into the indoor space.

[0034] See Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments of this utility model, a partition 140 is provided in the lower part of the housing 100, the suction pipe 230 and the air pump 220 are located below the partition 140, the collection bucket 210 and the vertical channel 110 are located above the partition 140, and a frame structure 150 is provided in the upper part of the housing 100 above the collection bucket 210. The frame structure 150 is used to position the contour edge of the filter element 310, and the fan 320 is located above the frame structure 150 and directly opposite the air outlet 120. This structure facilitates the rational division of the internal space of the housing 100, further improving the utilization rate of the internal space of the housing 100 while ensuring that the vacuum adsorption component 200 and the air purification component 300 do not interfere with each other, thus maximizing the structural compactness of the cleaning and purification equipment.

[0035] See Figure 3 and Figure 5In some embodiments of this utility model, in order to facilitate cleaning of the collection bucket 210, the side of the housing 100 is provided with an open drawer cavity 160, the collection bucket 210 is slidably inserted into the drawer cavity 160, the air intake of the air pump 220 and the output of the air suction pipe 230 are both located on the bottom wall of the drawer cavity 160, the bottom wall of the collection bucket 210 is provided with a fluid outlet 211 corresponding to the air intake of the air pump 220 and a fluid inlet 212 corresponding to the output of the air suction pipe 230, and a sealing ring 400 is provided between the air intake of the air pump 220 and the fluid outlet 211, and between the output of the air suction pipe 230 and the fluid inlet 212. It should be noted that when the collection bucket 210 is slid out of the drawer cavity 160, since the suction pipe 230 and the vacuum pump 220 are fixed relative to the housing 100, the suction port of the vacuum pump 220 and the output port of the suction pipe 230 are separated from the collection bucket 210. When the collection bucket 210 is slidably inserted into the drawer cavity 160, the sealing rings 400 between the suction port of the vacuum pump 220 and the fluid outlet 211, and between the output port of the suction pipe 230 and the fluid inlet 212, can prevent gas leakage and ensure the effectiveness of the vacuum adsorption function.

[0036] See Figure 3 and Figure 4 In this embodiment, the frame structure 150 is formed by a profile molded on the inner wall of the housing 100. The filter element 310 can slide relative to the profile along the depth direction of the drawer cavity 160 to enter and exit the housing 100. A decorative panel is snapped to the opening of the drawer cavity 160. The decorative panel can cover the collection bucket 210 and the filter element 310. When the decorative panel is removed, the collection bucket 210 and the filter element 310 can be pulled out and replaced.

[0037] See Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 In some embodiments of this utility model, the collection bucket 210 includes an upward-opening box body 213 and a cover plate 214 that covers the opening of the box body 213. An inlet pipe 215 is fixed inside the box body 213. The lower end of the inlet pipe 215 penetrates the bottom wall of the box body 213 to form the fluid inlet 212, and the upper end of the inlet pipe 215 extends upward to the upper-middle part of the box body 213. It can be understood that when the vacuum pump 220 is working, a negative pressure is formed inside the collection bucket 210, and the suction pipe 230 can suck hair, dander, or fine particles from the ground into the inlet pipe 215. The hair, dander, or fine particles discharged from the inlet pipe 215 then re-enter the box body 213. The upward extension of the upper end of the inlet pipe 215 to the upper-middle part of the box body 213 can prevent backflow of hair, dander, or fine particles, thereby ensuring the cleaning effect of the vacuum adsorption component 200.

[0038] See Figures 2 to 4 In some embodiments of this invention, an isolation device capable of separating foreign matter from the gas phase is provided between the fluid inlet 212 and the fluid outlet 211. The isolation device can prevent foreign matter entering the collection tank 210 from being sucked back into the vacuum pump 220 and clogging the pump 220.

[0039] See Figures 2 to 4 In some embodiments of this utility model, an exhaust pipe 216 is fixedly installed inside the box body 213. The lower end of the exhaust pipe 216 penetrates the bottom wall of the box body 213 to form the fluid outlet 211. The isolation device is a dust filter tube 500 detachably sleeved on the exhaust pipe 216. It can be understood that when the exhaust pump 220 is working, the gas located outside the dust filter tube 500 in the collection bucket 210 passes through the dust filter tube 500 and enters the exhaust pipe 216. Then, it passes through the input end and output end of the exhaust pump 220 and is discharged to the outside of the housing 100. At this time, the suction pipe 230 can suck foreign objects on the ground into the collection bucket 210. The foreign objects are isolated by the dust filter tube 500. A large amount of dust or hair can easily clog the dust filter tube 500. The dust filter tube 500 can be detached from the exhaust pipe 216 for easy replacement or cleaning, which is convenient for use.

[0040] Of course, in other embodiments, the isolation device can also be replaced by a mesh cover covering the outside of the feed pipe 215 or by a mesh guardrail that divides the internal space of the collection bucket 210 into two independent parts, with the feed pipe 215 and the exhaust pipe 216 located on both sides of the mesh guardrail.

[0041] See Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments of this utility model, the dust filter tube 500 includes a straight cylindrical filter 510. A connecting sleeve 520 and an installation end cap 530 are fixedly connected to both ends of the straight cylindrical filter 510. The connecting sleeve 520 is detachably inserted into the upper end of the exhaust pipe 216. The cover plate 214 has a through-hole 217 corresponding to the installation end cap 530, and the installation end cap 530 is detachably connected to the installation hole 217. It is understood that when the straight cylindrical filter 510 needs to be replaced or cleaned, simply remove the installation end cap 530 from the installation hole 217, and pull the connecting sleeve 520 upwards away from the exhaust pipe 216. The straight cylindrical filter 510 and the connecting sleeve 520 can then be pulled out from the installation hole 217, making the installation and removal of the dust filter tube 500 very convenient.

[0042] See Figure 2 and Figure 4In some embodiments of this utility model, to facilitate the insertion of the connecting sleeve 520 into the suction pipe 216 and to facilitate the removal of the connecting sleeve 520 from the suction pipe 216, the upper part of the suction pipe 216 is a frustum shape, narrower at the top and wider at the bottom. The middle part of the connecting sleeve 520 is provided with a frustum groove that matches the upper part of the suction pipe 216. The connecting sleeve 520 can rotate relative to the upper end of the suction pipe 216. The mounting end cap 530 and the mounting port 217 are connected by a rotating snap-fit ​​structure 700. The rotating snap-fit ​​structure 700 facilitates the detachable installation of the mounting end cap 530 and also prevents the dust filter tube 500 from easily detaching from the suction pipe 216 when subjected to vibration or accidental contact. The rotating snap-fit ​​structure 700 is a common structure in household appliances and will not be described further here.

[0043] See Figure 4 In some embodiments of this utility model, the air inlet 130 is located on the side walls of the housing 100 on both sides of the drawer cavity 160, and a pre-filter 600 is detachably connected to the air inlet 130. It should be noted that the pre-filter 600 has relatively large pores, mainly used to block larger particles and dust to prevent clogging of the filter element 310, thus extending the service life of the filter element 310. The pre-filter 600 is removed from the air inlet 130 for easy cleaning, avoiding a reduction in air intake after a period of use and thus affecting air purification efficiency. Specifically, the air inlets 130 are located on opposite sides of the drawer cavity 160, so that taking out or placing the collection bucket 210 will not affect the normal operation of the air purification component 300.

[0044] Specifically, in this embodiment, filter element 310 is a HEPA filter, which effectively captures particulate matter larger than 0.3 micrometers, including dust, pollen, some bacteria and viruses, through physical interception. It also has a certain adsorption capacity for most gaseous pollutants. Of course, in other embodiments, filter element 310 can also be an electrostatic dust collection filter. Electrostatic dust collection filters do not require frequent filter replacement, have lower maintenance costs, and can also kill some bacteria and viruses. Furthermore, depending on specific usage needs, the cleaning and purification equipment of this invention can also be equipped with at least one of an ozone generator, a UV sterilizer, and a negative ion generator.

[0045] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0046] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those skilled in the art will understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
