[0051] This utility model proposes a handheld vacuum cleaner that is easy to operate and has a visual working interface, which is used in the convenient design process of handheld vacuum cleaners. This utility model does not limit the type of handheld vacuum cleaner, but the structure of this handheld vacuum cleaner that is easy to operate and has a visual working interface is particularly suitable for small portable handheld vacuum cleaners.

[0052] In general, the handheld vacuum cleaner with convenient operation and a visual working interface proposed in this utility model mainly includes a motor housing assembly 1, a dust cup assembly 2, a transition connecting plate 3, a battery pack assembly 4, a handle assembly 5, and a visual operation assembly 19. See also... Figure 1 It shows the arrangement of the motor housing assembly 1, dust cup assembly 2, transition connecting plate 3, battery pack assembly 4, handle assembly 5 and visual operation assembly 19.

[0053] To achieve single-handed dust cup release, quick battery module removal, and visualized operation in vacuum cleaners, this paper addresses the shortcomings of existing handheld vacuum cleaners. The widely distributed control buttons make battery installation and dust cup replacement difficult with one hand, often requiring two hands – one holding the handle, the other pressing buttons – which is inconvenient. Even in one-handed operation, difficulties remain; the operator may struggle to reach buttons, or the shift in grip can lead to instability. Therefore, maximum single-handed utilization is not achieved, meaning portability is far from sufficient. Furthermore, high-end devices typically integrate displays to indicate the current status of the handheld vacuum cleaner, but this is not the case for this series of products. Previous designs lacked display devices, reducing the need for rapid feedback on the vacuum cleaner's usage status. Therefore, in this embodiment, a visual operation component 19, a handle component 5, and a battery pack component 4 are installed from top to bottom on the same side of the motor housing assembly 1 and dust cup assembly 2, which are arranged vertically. The handle component 5 and dust cup assembly 2 are connected by a dust cup release latch 6, allowing for one-handed dust cup release. The battery pack assembly 4 is connected to the transition connecting plate 3 and handle assembly 5 via a press button 16, enabling one-button, one-handed disassembly of the battery pack assembly 4. Furthermore, the visual operation component 19 is integrated at the top of the handle assembly 5, allowing for operation of the power button 12 and operation buttons 13 within the reach of the thumb, improving the comfort of one-handed operation and enhancing the convenience of the visual and operable interface, greatly increasing the user experience.

[0054] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, a dust cup assembly 2 is installed below the motor housing assembly 1. A transition connecting plate 3 is vertically installed on one side of the motor housing assembly 1, extending out of the motor housing assembly 1 at the bottom. The handle assembly 5 is mated and installed on the motor housing assembly 1 through the transition connecting plate 3. In order to ensure the installation stability of the handle assembly 5, the top of the handle assembly 5 extends out of the transition connecting plate 3 and is installed on the motor housing assembly 1 with bolts. The battery pack assembly 4 is installed on the transition connecting plate 3 through a quick-release unit and is snapped into the bottom of the handle assembly 5.

[0055] It should be specifically noted that the vacuum cleaner provided in this embodiment has a visual and operable interface, and the operation can also be completed with one hand. For this reason, a set of handle assembly 5 with a right-angled trapezoidal structure is designed in this embodiment. The side of the handle assembly 5 near the dust cup assembly 2 is set vertically, and the other side is set at an angle.

[0056] Specifically, the handle assembly 5 includes an upper horizontal end 51, a lower horizontal end 52, a vertical end 53, and a grip end 54. The upper horizontal end 51 and the lower horizontal end 52 are arranged horizontally, the vertical end 53 is located close to the motor housing assembly 1, and the grip end 54 is located on the other side and is arranged at an angle. The top side is closer to the motor housing assembly 1 than the bottom side, which is convenient for the operator's palm to grip. The upper horizontal end 51, the lower horizontal end 52, the vertical end 53, and the grip end 54 enclose a four-finger space 55 to accommodate one-handed operation.

[0057] In order to install the visual operation component 19, the upper horizontal end 51 is pre-set with a mounting groove 56 for installing the visual operation component 19, and the visual area is placed in the mounting groove 56; and considering the height of the thumb and the range of free movement of the thumb, the end of the upper horizontal end 51 away from the motor housing assembly 1 extends into a grip end 54 to form an operation end 59. The operation end 59 is arranged in an arc shape facing downwards. The power switch 12 and operation button 13 of the visual operation component 19 are installed in the operation end 59. The operation button 13 is used for speed adjustment and other operations; in order to facilitate one-handed grip and thumb operation, the tilt direction of the operation end 59 is the same as that of the grip end 54, or they can be arranged in parallel.

[0058] Meanwhile, considering the grip strength of the handle assembly 5 during single-handed holding, and without affecting the stability of the thumb when operating the operation button 13, the grip end 54 also extends horizontally and integrally to form an index finger limiting plate 11 on one side within the four-finger space 55. When holding, the index finger can be placed above the index finger limiting plate 11, and other fingers can be placed below it, so that the thumb can still grip the handle firmly when releasing the operation function button 13.

[0059] Based on this, on the one hand, to achieve quick disassembly of the dust cup assembly 2, and on the other hand, to improve the utilization rate of the little finger within the four-finger space 55, firstly, a transition connecting plate 3 is embedded in the side of the vertical end 53 away from the gripping end 54. The other side of the transition connecting plate 3 provides the installation position for the dust cup assembly 2. Next, a through hole is opened on the side of the vertical end 53 and the transition connecting plate 3 near the dust cup assembly 2. A dust cup release buckle 6 is installed in the through hole. A vertically arranged elongated slot 58 is also integrally provided on the side of the vertical end 53 near the dust cup assembly 2. The body of the dust cup release buckle 6 is embedded in the elongated slot 58 and moves up and down. The bottom is connected to a reset spring 7 that abuts against the elongated slot 58. The device has a locking groove 9 for accommodating the dust cup assembly 2 latch. During use, the locking groove 9 is used to engage the dust cup assembly 2 latch. A wedge block 10 is also integrally provided on the side of the locking groove 9 away from the first spring 7. After engaging, it abuts against the bottom of the dust cup assembly 2 latch. When the dust cup needs to be released, the dust cup release latch 6 is located in the four-finger space 55 and has a horizontal lever 8 integrally and vertically provided. The lever 8 is located near the space where the little finger moves. Driven by the little finger, the lever 8 drives the body of the dust cup release latch 6 to move up and down in the through hole, adjusting the corresponding structure between the dust cup assembly 2 latch and the dust cup release latch 6. After the dust cup release latch 6 is pressed, the locking state between the dust cup assembly 2 latch and the dust cup release latch 6 is released, and the dust cup can be released.

[0060] As mentioned above, a battery pack assembly is also installed below the handle assembly 5. In order to achieve quick positioning and installation, on the one hand, guide strips 57 are integrally extended on both sides of the lower horizontal end 52 of the handle assembly 5 along the direction parallel to the sliding installation of the battery pack assembly 4 to form a corresponding battery pack assembly 4 installation. Correspondingly, an installation groove 56 is provided on the top of the battery pack assembly 4. The side of the installation groove 56 near the transition connecting plate 3 and the top are both open. After the battery pack assembly 4 slides into the installation groove 56 along the guide strip 57, it is locked in the installation groove 56. Since the other side of the installation groove 56 is a closed structure, the installation is completed when it slides to this point.

[0061] On the other hand, a push button 16 is installed at the bottom of the battery pack assembly 4 via a second spring 15. The push button 16 can move up and down under the drive of a finger. The side of the push button 16 near the transition connecting plate 3 extends integrally to form a horizontal battery pack locking buckle 17. Correspondingly, a locking groove 14 is provided at the bottom of the transition connecting plate 3 near the side of the battery pack assembly 4. Since the second spring 15 is vertically set, its top abuts against the top of the groove where the push button 16 is installed. When the push button 16 is pressed, the second spring 15 is squeezed, and the battery pack locking buckle 17 is raised and moved away from the locking groove 14 to release the locking state, thus achieving quick release.

[0062] Preferably, since the dust cup assembly 2 and the battery pack assembly 4 are installed adjacent to each other, in order to improve the effect of quick alignment after installation, the outer periphery of the dust cup assembly 2 is provided with a mutual assembly limiting structure 18 corresponding to the transition connecting plate 3 and the battery pack assembly 4.

[0063] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Any person skilled in the art can modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or alterations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and technical concept disclosed in this utility model should still be covered by the claims of this utility model.
