These devices use rotating roller mops to clean floors, and are equipped with squeegees that are interference-fitted with the mop to scrape off wastewater and solid debris. However, the mop fibers are flattened by the squeegee, reducing the mop's ability to trap dirt and grime, thus decreasing its cleaning effectiveness and overall cleaning efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0003] The main purpose of this application is to provide a cleaning mechanism and cleaning equipment to solve the problem in the prior art where the mop fibers on the roller mop are flattened after being squeezed by the squeegee, which weakens the roller mop's ability to trap dirt and grime.

[0021] Furthermore, the bracket is provided with a water supply structure for supplying cleaning fluid to the flexible cleaning component, and the squeegee is located between the water supply structure and the roller brush along the circumference of the roller.
[0022] Furthermore, the mounting component includes:
[0023] The mounting body is connected to the bracket. The side of the wiper blade away from the flexible cleaning component is connected to the mounting body and forms a liquid storage space around the mounting body. The mounting body is provided with an opening located on the side of the mounting body away from the wiper blade. The liquid storage space is connected to the opening and the drainage structure. Along the first direction, the roller brush is connected to the mounting body and located below the opening.
[0024] A connecting pipe is provided, which is in communication with the opening.
[0025] Furthermore, the mounting body is also provided with a mounting groove, which is located on the side of the mounting body near the roller, and the mounting groove is located at the bottom of the opening along the first direction.

[0029] On the other hand, this application also provides a cleaning device that includes the aforementioned cleaning mechanism.
[0030] In this application, the cleaning mechanism includes a roller and a flexible cleaning element. The roller is mounted on a support and can rotate around its own axis. The flexible cleaning element is laid on the surface of the roller to clean the surface to be cleaned under the action of the roller. A squeegee is connected to the support and abuts against the flexible cleaning element to scrape off sewage and solid waste from the flexible cleaning element. The cleaning mechanism also includes a fluffing component, which is installed on at least one side of the squeegee along the circumference of the roller. During the relative movement between the fluffing component and the roller, the fluffing component can comb the portion of the flexible cleaning element in the first state to a second state. The density of the second state is lower than that of the first state; the lower the density, the fluffier the flexible cleaning element. In other words, the fluffing component can fluff up the flexible cleaning element after it has been flattened by the squeegee, making the volume of the flexible cleaning element larger than its flattened volume. This makes the flexible cleaning element fluffier after passing through the fluffing component, improving its ability to trap dirt and grime, thereby enhancing its cleaning ability and cleaning effect.

[0042] In existing roller mops (121), the squeegee (13) compresses the mop, causing the fibers to flatten and become compacted, thus reducing the mop's cleaning ability. To address this problem, the first embodiment of this invention provides a cleaning mechanism. (See attached image.) Figures 1 to 5 The cleaning mechanism includes a cleaning component 10 and a fluffing component 20.
[0043] like Figure 2 As shown, the cleaning assembly 10 includes a bracket 11, a cleaning component 12, and a squeegee 13. The cleaning component 12 includes a roller 121 and a flexible cleaning element 122. The roller 121 is mounted on the bracket 11 and can rotate about its own axis. The flexible cleaning element 122 is laid on the surface of the roller 121 so that it can clean the surface to be cleaned (such as at least one of the following: floor, tabletop, countertop, wall, etc.) under the drive of the roller 121. In this embodiment, the flexible cleaning element 122 may include a mop. The roller 121 can be sleeved on a drive module to be driven to rotate by the drive module. The drive module may include a connecting seat, a bearing seat, a bearing, a drive motor, and a connector, all of which are sleeved inside the roller 121. The connecting seat is connected to one end of the bracket 11 along the axial direction of the roller 121. Along the axial direction of the roller 121, a bearing housing is installed between the connecting seat and the drive motor. The bearing is mounted on the bearing housing, with its inner circumferential surface connected to the bearing housing and its outer circumferential surface abutting against the inner circumferential surface of the roller 121. The connector is detachably connected to the output shaft of the drive motor and engages with the inner circumferential surface of the roller 121. The connector can rotate around its own axis under the drive of the drive motor, thereby driving the roller 121 to rotate. This drive module not only drives the roller 121 to rotate but also improves the stability of the roller 121 during operation.
[0044] The squeegee 13 is connected to the bracket 11 and abuts against the flexible cleaning component 122. During the process of the roller 121 driving the flexible cleaning component 122 to rotate and clean the surface to be cleaned, the squeegee 13 can scrape off the sewage and solid waste accumulated on the flexible cleaning component 122 to clean the flexible cleaning component 122, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the flexible cleaning component 122 after cleaning the surface to be cleaned. Among them, the part of the flexible cleaning component 122 that passes through the squeegee 13 (i.e., the part that is squeezed by the squeegee 13 to scrape off sewage and waste) has a first state. The part in the first state or the entire flexible cleaning component 122 is in a flattened and compacted state. The part in the first state has a high density (i.e., a large mass per unit volume). When there is lint on the surface of the flexible cleaning component 122, the lint is in a flattened state.
[0045] The fluffing component 20 is installed on at least one side of the wiper blade 13 along the circumference of the roller 121 and abuts against the flexible cleaning element 122. During the relative movement between the fluffing component 20 and the roller 121, the fluffing component 20 combs the portion of the flexible cleaning element 122 in the first state to a second state, where the density is lower than that in the first state. That is, the portion of the flexible cleaning element 122 in the compacted second state has a smaller mass per unit volume, is more fluffy, and is more likely to trap dirt. Therefore, the fluffing component 20 can comb the flexible cleaning element 122 to change it from a compacted state to a more fluffy state, breaking up the flexible components (such as fibers, loops, cotton threads, etc.) on the flexible cleaning element 122, thereby increasing its fluffiness. If the flexible cleaning component 122 is a mop with a lot of fluff on its surface, it can comb the fluff on the mop that has been flattened by the squeegee 13 and lies flat along the circumference of the roller 121 until it is fluffy and upright along the radial direction of the roller 121, thereby increasing the fluffiness of the mop and enhancing its ability to trap dirt. The flexible cleaning component 122 can also be used for mop structures formed by laying down multiple flexible strips (such as strips of cloth, thicker cotton threads, etc.). After being combed by the fluffing component 20, the multiple flexible strips that were lying flat and close together will loosen and become fluffier.
[0046] As can be seen, in this embodiment, the cleaning component 12 of the cleaning mechanism includes a roller 121 and a flexible cleaning element 122. The roller 121 is mounted on the support 11 and can rotate around its own axis. The flexible cleaning element 122 is laid on the surface of the roller 121 to clean the surface to be cleaned under the action of the roller 121. The squeegee 13 is connected to the support 11 and abuts against the flexible cleaning element 122 to scrape off sewage and solid waste from the flexible cleaning element 122. The cleaning mechanism is also provided with a fluffing component 20. The fluffing component 20 is mounted on at least one side of the squeegee 13 along the circumference of the roller 121 and abuts against the flexible cleaning element 122. During the relative movement between the fluffing component 20 and the roller 121, the fluffing component 20 can comb the part of the flexible cleaning element 122 in the first state to the second state. The density of the second state is smaller than that of the first state. The smaller the density, the fluffier the flexible cleaning element 122. In other words, the fluffing component 20 can fluff the flexible cleaning component 122 after it has been flattened by the squeegee 13, making the volume of the flexible cleaning component 122 larger than its flattened volume. As a result, the flexible cleaning component 122 becomes fluffier after passing through the fluffing component 20, which improves the ability of the flexible cleaning component 122 to trap dirt and grime, thereby improving the cleaning ability and cleaning effect of the flexible cleaning component 122.
[0047] The fluffing component 20 in this embodiment includes a mounting component 21 and a roller brush 22. The mounting component 21 is connected to the bracket 11. In some embodiments, the mounting component 21 may also be connected to the housing of the cleaning device. The roller brush 22 is connected to the mounting component 21 and abuts against the flexible cleaning element 122, and the roller brush 22 is located on at least one side of the squeegee 13 along the axial direction of the roller 121, so that the roller brush 22 can comb the flexible cleaning element 122 and fluff it. In this embodiment, the roller brush 22 can always remain stationary relative to the bracket 11. In this regard, after the cleaning mechanism is installed on the cleaning device (such as when the cleaning device is a robot vacuum cleaner, the cleaning mechanism is installed at the rear of the robot vacuum cleaner along the direction of travel of the robot vacuum cleaner), during the movement of the cleaning device, if the roller 121 rotates counterclockwise under the drive of the drive module (i.e., Figure 2 The direction indicated by the middle arrow N drives the flexible cleaning component 122 to rotate and clean. This causes the roller brush 22 and the roller 121 to move relative to each other, allowing the roller brush 22 to comb the flexible cleaning component 122. The compacted parts of the flexible cleaning component 122 become more fluffy after being combed by the roller brush 22, which makes the fibers and / or the pile of the flexible cleaning component 122 looser, thereby improving the ability of the flexible cleaning component 122 to trap dirt.
[0048] Meanwhile, when the roller brush 22 cannot rotate, if the roller 121 rotates around its own axis in a first clockwise direction while the flexible cleaning component 122 is rotating for cleaning, the roller 121 can be driven to rotate the flexible cleaning component 122 in a second clockwise direction after the cleaning device has cleaned the predetermined area of the surface to be cleaned, thereby increasing the fluffiness of the flexible cleaning component 122. The first and second clockwise directions are opposite. If the first clockwise direction is counterclockwise, the fibers on the part of the flexible cleaning component 122 that passes the squeegee 13 will lie flat in a clockwise direction. At this time, in this embodiment, the roller 121 can be driven to rotate the flexible cleaning component 122 in a clockwise direction so that the roller brush 22 can pull the fallen fibers to stand up in a counterclockwise direction, thereby becoming fluffier. Thus, in some scenarios, the flexible cleaning component 122 can be periodically combed to make it fluffier, preventing the fibers and / or constituent fibers of the flexible cleaning component 122 from becoming increasingly compact due to long-term or never-combed use.
[0049] The roller brush 22 can rotate around its own axis. That is, in this embodiment, the rotation direction of the roller brush 22 can be the same as the rotation direction of the roller 121, such as the roller 121 rotating along... Figure 2 If the roller brush 22 rotates counterclockwise (in the direction indicated by arrow N), it can also rotate counterclockwise to comb and fluff the flexible cleaning part 122 and its fibers that are flattened by the wiper blade 13.
[0050] In this embodiment, the rotation direction of the roller brush 22 can also be opposite to the rotation direction of the roller 121. Along the circumference of the roller 121, the scraper 13 includes a first side 131 and a second side 132. The roller brush 22 is located on the first side 131. The roller 121 can drive the flexible cleaning component 122 from the second side 132 through the first side 131 and then abut against the roller brush 22 in a first clockwise direction. The roller brush 22 can rotate around its own axis in a second clockwise direction, and the first clockwise direction and the second clockwise direction are opposite. For example, if the roller 121 rotates along... Figure 2 When rotating counterclockwise (in the direction indicated by arrow N), the roller brush 22 rotates clockwise (in the direction indicated by arrow S). At this time, because the fibers on the part of the flexible cleaning element 122 after passing the squeegee 13 will lie flat in the clockwise direction, the roller brush 22, rotating clockwise, can more efficiently pull the fallen fibers upright in the counterclockwise direction. Ultimately, the roller brush 22 can interfere with the flexible cleaning element 122 in the opposite direction, thus making the flexible cleaning element 122 more fluffy. Along the circumference of the roller 121, the distance from the roller brush 22 to the first side 131 is less than the distance to the second side 132. The flexible cleaning element 122 can be combed by the roller brush 22 before passing the surface to be cleaned, allowing the flexible cleaning element 122 to clean the surface in a more fluffy state, improving the surface's dirt-absorbing capacity.
[0051] The fluffing component 20 in this embodiment also includes a driving component connected to the roller brush 22. The driving component drives the roller brush 22 to rotate relative to the mounting component 21, and the rotation direction of the roller brush 22 can be opposite to or the same as the rotation direction of the roller 121. Therefore, whether the roller 121 rotates or not, this embodiment can drive the roller brush 22 to rotate in the same or opposite direction to the rotation direction of the roller 121 to comb the flexible cleaning component 122. When the roller brush 22 is driven to rotate and comb the flexible cleaning component 122 by the driving component, the combing force applied by the roller brush 22 to the flexible cleaning component 122 will be stronger, resulting in a better fluffing effect after combing compared to when the roller brush 22 cannot rotate actively, thus achieving flexible control of the roller brush 22.
[0052] For example, drive the roller brush 22 in a clockwise direction (e.g. Figure 2 The flexible cleaning component 122 is rotated in the direction indicated by S (as shown in the diagram) to make the fibers that were lying down clockwise stand up and loosen in the counterclockwise direction, or to make the fibers that were lying down counterclockwise stand up and loosen in the clockwise direction, thus improving the fluffiness of the flexible cleaning component 122. Furthermore, the drive component allows for continuous combing of the flexible cleaning component 122, ensuring that it remains fluffy for extended periods as needed, further enhancing the cleaning effect on the surface to be cleaned.
[0053] To ensure that the flexible cleaning component 122 remains in a more fluffy second state before contacting the surface to be cleaned during its rotation, while reducing costs associated with installing multiple roller brushes 22, the squeegee 13 includes a first side 131 and a second side 132 along the circumference of the roller 121. The squeegee 13 is provided with a drainage structure 133, which guides wastewater from the second side 132 to the first side 131, where the roller brushes 22 are located. Thus, during the cleaning process, as the roller 121 drives the flexible cleaning component 122 to rotate in a first clockwise direction (e.g., counterclockwise), the wastewater scraped off by the squeegee 13 is discharged from the second side 132 to the first side 131 through the drainage structure 133, and then from the first side 131 into the wastewater tank of the cleaning equipment. During this process, the roller brushes 22 can be driven to rotate in a second clockwise direction (if the first clockwise direction is counterclockwise, then the second clockwise direction is clockwise) by a drive component. In this regard, the flexible cleaning component 122 will first pass through the squeegee 13 to scrape off the sewage, and then pass through the roller brush 22. The roller brush 22 rotates in the second clockwise direction, which can make the flexible cleaning component 122 more fluffy. When it comes into contact with the surface to be cleaned after passing through the roller brush 22, the cleanliness of the surface to be cleaned can be higher, and the adsorption capacity of sewage and garbage on the surface to be cleaned can be improved.
[0054] like Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the roller brush 22 in this embodiment includes a connecting shaft 221 and a bristle structure 222. The connecting shaft 221 is connected to a driving component and can rotate around its own axis under the drive of the driving component, and the connecting shaft 221 extends along the axial direction of the roller 121. The bristle structure 222 is disposed on the surface of the connecting shaft 221 and abuts against the flexible cleaning element 122. Thus, in this embodiment, by connecting the connecting shaft 221 to the driving component, the bristle structure 222 on the connecting shaft 221 can be driven to rotate to comb the flexible cleaning element 122 and improve the fluffiness of the flexible cleaning element 122. The overall structure of the roller brush 22 is easy to install and has low cost.
[0055] Among them, such as Figure 5 As shown, the bristle structure 222 includes a first brush bar 2221, which includes multiple bristles arranged in a straight line along the axial direction of the connecting shaft 221. Figure 5 (The bristle structure shown). The first brush bar 2221 of this structure has low design difficulty and low cost, and does not require high rotational speed from the roller 121 and itself; a relatively low rotational speed can improve the fluffiness of the flexible cleaning component 122. In this embodiment, the first brush bar 2221 includes multiple bars, which are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the connecting shaft 221. Thus, the flexible cleaning component 122 is combed by multiple first brush bars 2221, especially during the rotation of the bristle structure 222 driven by the connecting shaft 221, which can improve the combing efficiency and the fluffiness effect of the flexible cleaning component 122. For example, the second brush bar can be two, three, four, five, six, etc., or other numbers greater than six; this embodiment does not limit this to a single number.
[0056] In this embodiment, the bristle structure 222 can also be a second brush strip. The second brush strip includes multiple bristles arranged in a spiral pattern along the axial direction of the connecting shaft 221, spaced apart from each other. The spiral arrangement of the second brush strip provides more contact points with the flexible cleaning component 122 within a smaller space, dispersing the combing pressure and improving the fluffiness after combing. The second brush strip also reduces the likelihood of long fibers or thread ends from the flexible cleaning component 122 getting tangled on the bristles, improving the fluffiness of the flexible cleaning component 122 while preventing entanglement between the bristle structure 222 and the flexible cleaning component 122. Multiple second brush strips can also be arranged in a circumferential direction along the connecting shaft 221, spaced apart from each other, to improve the combing efficiency and fluffiness of the flexible cleaning component 122.
[0057] As an optional implementation, the bristle structure 222 can be a combination of a first brush strip 2221 and a second brush strip. Thus, the first brush strip 2221 and the second brush strip can be spaced apart circumferentially along the connecting shaft 221, and there can be one or at least two first brush strips 2221 between adjacent second brush strips. Therefore, this embodiment achieves efficient combing of the flexible cleaning component 122 and improves its fluffiness through the combination of the first brush strip 2221 and the second brush strip.
[0058] Along the axial direction of the roller 121, the length of the connecting shaft 221 is not less than the length of the roller 121, and the bristle structure 222 extends from one end of the connecting shaft 221 to the other end. As a result, not only is assembly convenient, but it also ensures that all parts of the flexible cleaning component 122 along the axial direction of the roller 121 can be combed by the bristles without increasing the number of roller brushes 22.
[0059] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a water supply structure 110 is provided on the support 11. The water supply structure 110 is used to provide cleaning fluid to the flexible cleaning component 122. The cleaning fluid can be clean water or a combination of clean water and detergent. Along the circumference of the roller 121, the squeegee 13 is located between the water supply structure 110 and the roller brush 22. Thus, in this embodiment, the flexible cleaning component 122 first passes through the water supply structure 110, and then, after the water supply structure 110 provides cleaning fluid to the flexible cleaning component 122, it passes through the squeegee 13 to scrape off the sewage and debris on the flexible cleaning component 122, improving the cleanliness of the flexible cleaning component 122. As the roller 121 rotates, the cleaned flexible cleaning component 122 will pass through the roller brush 22, thereby combing the flexible cleaning component 122, so that the surface to be cleaned can be cleaned more thoroughly and the flexible cleaning component 122 is more fluffy, resulting in a better cleaning effect.
[0060] The water supply structure 110 provided in the support 11 can specifically be a water supply channel and a spray nozzle installed within the support 11. The water supply channel is laid along the axial direction of the roller 121, and the spray nozzle is located on the side of the support 11 near the roller 121 and is connected to the water supply channel. The water supply channel can be connected to the clean water box and / or cleaning agent box in the cleaning equipment through the connecting pipe 212, and the spray nozzle is used to spray the cleaning liquid in the water supply channel onto the flexible cleaning component 122.
[0061] like Figures 2 to 4As shown, the mounting component 21 in this embodiment includes a mounting body 211 and a connecting pipe 212. The mounting body 211 is connected to the bracket 11. The side of the wiper blade 13 facing away from the flexible cleaning component 122 (i.e., the first side 131 of the wiper blade 13) is connected to the mounting body 211 and forms a liquid storage space 1111 around the mounting body 211. The mounting body 211 is provided with an opening 112, which is located on the side of the mounting body 211 facing away from the wiper blade 13. The liquid storage space 1111 connects the opening 112 and the drainage structure 133. Along the first direction (e.g. Figure 2 (In the direction indicated by the middle arrow X), the roller brush 22 is connected to the mounting body 211 and located below the opening 112. The connecting pipe 212 is connected to the opening 112. In this embodiment, the connecting pipe 212 can be connected to the wastewater box in the cleaning equipment, so that the wastewater scraped off by the scraper 13 can be discharged into the connecting pipe 212 through the drainage structure 133 along the opening 112, and then discharged into the wastewater box through the connecting pipe 212. Specifically, when the wastewater box generates negative pressure, the wastewater can be discharged into the wastewater box through the connecting pipe 212 to achieve fully enclosed collection of wastewater, which can prevent wastewater from spilling from the cleaning equipment. At the same time, by placing the roller brush 22 below the opening 112 in this embodiment, not only is the overall structure of the cleaning mechanism more compact and reliable, but it also prevents wastewater from spilling onto the roller brush 22 and causing secondary pollution to the flexible cleaning component 122.
[0062] The mounting body 211 may also be provided with a first mounting groove 111. Along the radial direction of the roller 121, the first mounting groove 111 is located on the side of the mounting body 211 close to the roller 121. The side of the wiper blade 13 away from the flexible cleaning component 122 is at least partially embedded in the first mounting groove 111 and forms a liquid storage space 1111 with the inner wall of the first mounting groove 111. The opening 112 is located at the bottom of the first mounting groove 111 away from the wiper blade 13 and is connected to the drainage structure 133.
[0063] The drainage structure 133 of the wiper blade 13 can be a plurality of micro-holes 1330. The plurality of micro-holes 1330 are arranged in at least one row along the axial direction of the roller 121, and the micro-holes 1330 extend from the second side 132 of the wiper blade 13 to the first side 131. The micro-holes 1330 can not only guide sewage from the second side 132 to the first side 131, but also block solid waste. Specifically, a liquid storage space 1111 is formed between the wiper blade 13 and the inner wall of the first mounting groove 111. The liquid storage space 1111 is connected between the opening 112 and the plurality of micro-holes 1330. Thus, after the micro-holes 1330 guide the sewage to the liquid storage space 1111, it flows through the opening 112 to the connecting pipe 212, and then is discharged into the sewage box through the connecting pipe 212. Of course, in some alternative embodiments, a groove may be provided on the side of the wiper blade 13 near the mounting body 211, and the mounting body 211 may be at least partially embedded in the groove and surround the inner wall of the groove to form a liquid storage space 1111, and the opening may be connected to the liquid storage space 1111.
[0064] The mounting body 211 is also provided with a mounting groove 113, which is located on the side of the mounting body 211 near the roller 121 and at the bottom of the opening 112 along the first direction. The length of the mounting groove 113 extends along the axial direction of the roller 121, and through holes 1131 are provided on the sidewalls of opposite sides of the mounting groove 113 along the axial direction of the roller 121. The opposite ends of the connecting shaft 221 are rotatably connected to the inner wall surface of the through holes 1131, and the bristle structure 222 is located between the through holes 1131 on opposite sides of the mounting groove 113. In this embodiment, by passing the connecting shaft 221 through the through holes 1131 and rotatably connecting the opposite ends of the connecting shaft 221 to the through holes 1131, the roller brush 22 is completely housed in the mounting groove 113, making the overall structure of the fluffing assembly 20 more compact and reliable. The driving component can be connected to the end of the connecting shaft 221. The connecting shaft 221 can be rotatably connected to the through hole 1131 by a clearance fit with the inner wall surface of the through hole 1131, or by a bearing.
[0065] Secondly, such as Figure 5 As shown, along the first direction, the bottom of the mounting groove 113 away from the opening 112 is provided with a clearance opening 1132. The clearance opening 1132 can reduce the friction between the inner wall of the mounting groove 113 and the bristle structure 222, thereby improving the service life of the bristle structure 222 and ensuring the stability and reliability of the bristle structure 222 during rotation.
[0066] The driving component in this embodiment may include a first motor and a transmission component. The transmission component is connected between the first motor and the connecting shaft 221, and can drive the connecting shaft 221 to rotate under the drive of the first motor. In this embodiment, the first motor can be connected to the bracket 11 and / or to the housing of the cleaning equipment through a corresponding mounting base, as long as the first motor can be installed and fixed. The transmission component may specifically be a first gear and a second gear. For example, the first gear can be connected to the output shaft of the first motor, and one end of the connecting shaft 221 can extend out of the through hole 1131 and be fitted with the second gear. The second gear meshes with the first gear. After the first motor starts, it drives the first gear through the output shaft to drive the connecting shaft 221 with the second gear to rotate. The assembly difficulty is low. In this embodiment, the transmission component may also be a first transmission wheel, a transmission belt, and a second transmission wheel. The first transmission wheel can be fitted onto the output shaft of the first motor, the second transmission wheel can be fitted onto the end of the connecting shaft 221 that extends out of the through hole 1131, and the transmission belt can be fitted onto the first transmission wheel and the second transmission wheel, so that the second transmission wheel can be driven to rotate under the drive of the first motor, thereby causing the connecting shaft 221 to rotate. The transmission components in this embodiment are not limited to the structures listed above, and the corresponding transmission structures can be flexibly added or removed according to the specific structure of the cleaning mechanism and cleaning equipment.
[0067] The second embodiment of this utility model also provides a cleaning device, which includes a cleaning mechanism. The structure of the cleaning mechanism is described in the first embodiment of this utility model, and will not be repeated here.
[0068] For ease of description, spatial relative terms such as "above," "on top of," "on the upper surface of," "above," etc., are used herein to describe the spatial positional relationship of a device or feature as shown in the figures to other devices or features. It should be understood that spatial relative terms are intended to encompass different orientations in use or operation beyond the orientation of the device as described in the figures. For example, if the device in the figures were inverted, a device described as "above" or "on top of" other devices or structures would subsequently be positioned as "below" or "under" other devices or structures. Thus, the exemplary term "above" can include both "above" and "below." The device may also be positioned in other different ways (rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatial relative descriptions used herein will be interpreted accordingly.
[0069] Furthermore, it should be noted that the use of terms such as "first" and "second" to define components is merely for the purpose of distinguishing the corresponding components. Unless otherwise stated, the above terms have no special meaning and therefore cannot be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this application.
