Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of suction cup tools, and in particular to a vacuum suction cup and a tile paving machine. Background Technology
[0002] Current vacuum suction cup structures typically consist of a housing and an adsorption assembly located at the bottom of the housing, with the two connected by a direct bonding method, such as fixing with short screws or a one-piece molded structure. While this design is simple and easy to manufacture, it presents significant problems in practical applications: because there is no extra space reserved between the housing and the adsorption assembly, the internal space of the housing is quite compact, making it difficult to accommodate other functional components. This necessitates increasing the size of the housing to provide sufficient internal space, which not only affects the overall compactness and aesthetics of the structure but also increases the overall weight and complexity, making installation and maintenance more difficult. Utility Model Content
[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a vacuum suction cup and a tile laying machine.
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:
[0005] This utility model provides a vacuum suction cup, including a housing, a dust cover, and an adsorption component arranged sequentially from top to bottom. The bottom of the housing is fixedly connected to the top of the adsorption component through a connector that passes through the gap between the housing and the adsorption component. The dust cover is clamped between the housing and the adsorption component and covers the part of the connector located between the housing and the adsorption component. A vacuum pumping device is provided inside the housing. After the adsorption component comes into contact with the object to be adsorbed, the inner circumference of the bottom of the adsorption component defines a sealed space. The vacuum pumping device is configured to extract air from the sealed space to achieve vacuuming.
[0006] In the aforementioned vacuum suction cup, the adsorption component includes a rubber part and a metal part, with the rubber part enclosing the metal part, and a connector fixing the housing and the metal part together.

[0008] In the aforementioned vacuum suction cup, the metal part is located in the central area of the rubber part, and sealing ribs are provided at the bottom of the perimeter of the rubber part.
[0009] In the aforementioned vacuum suction cup, the rubber component includes an upper rubber component and a lower rubber component. The upper and lower rubber components sandwich the metal component between them and are integrally formed by a molding process. The sealing rib is located at the bottom of the periphery of the lower rubber component.
[0010] In the aforementioned vacuum suction cup, the top of the upper rubber part is provided with a first slot for engaging the bottom of the dust cover, and the bottom of the housing is provided with a second slot for engaging the top of the dust cover.
[0011] In the aforementioned vacuum suction cup, the bottom of the lower rubber component is provided with an annular groove, and a sealing element with a hardness lower than that of the lower rubber component is provided in the annular groove, with the bottom of the sealing element extending out of the annular groove.
[0012] In the aforementioned vacuum suction cup, the sealing element is installed on the annular groove by means of adhesion or magnetic attraction.
[0013] This utility model also provides a tile laying machine, including a vibration device and the aforementioned vacuum suction cup. The vibration device is installed on top of the suction assembly and located inside a dust cover.
[0014] In the aforementioned tile paving machine, a spring is fitted onto the connecting piece, and a dust cover houses the spring.
[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0016] Compared with existing technologies, this invention, without changing the original casing size, creates a usable space between the bottom of the casing and the adsorption component by setting a connector of a certain extension length.

Detailed Implementation
[0025] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model.
[0026] Example 1: The structure of the vacuum chuck in this example is as follows: Figures 1 to 5 The device includes a housing 1, a dust cover 2, and an adsorption assembly 3, arranged sequentially from top to bottom. The bottom of the housing 1 is fixedly connected to the top of the adsorption assembly 3 via a connector 4, wherein the connector 4 passes through the gap between the housing 1 and the adsorption assembly 3, achieving a secure connection between the two. The connector 4 is preferably a screw or other fastener with an appropriate extension length, sufficient to span the gap and form a usable accommodating space between the housing 1 and the adsorption assembly 3.
[0027] The dust cover 2 is sandwiched between the housing 1 and the adsorption assembly 3, and covers the portion of the connector 4 located in the gap, providing good dust protection. Simultaneously, the dust cover 2 is detachably installed between the two for easy daily inspection and maintenance. The housing 1 is equipped with a vacuum device 5, which is generally an air pump. Its suction pipe runs through the bottom of the adsorption assembly 3. When the adsorption assembly 3 comes into contact with the object to be adsorbed, a sealed space is defined at its bottom inner circumference. The vacuum device 5 is used to extract air from this sealed space to create a negative pressure, thereby achieving the adsorption function.
[0028] This structural design, without altering the original casing dimensions, creates additional space between the casing 1 and the adsorption assembly 3 by incorporating a connector 4 with a certain extension length. This space can be used to arrange other functional components, significantly improving the overall space utilization of the structure and avoiding the need to increase the casing volume due to functional expansion. This facilitates the miniaturization and integration of the equipment. Furthermore, the dust cover 2 not only provides effective dust protection but also enhances the maintainability and practicality of the equipment.
[0029] In this embodiment, a handle slot 6 is provided at the middle of the upper part of the housing 1, forming a main handle 7 for operation. A secondary handle 8 and a battery pack 9 are respectively provided at both ends of the upper part of the housing 1. The secondary handle 8 is used in conjunction with the main handle 7 to enhance grip stability. The battery pack 9 is used to power the vacuum pumping device 5, ensuring the device's independent operation capability.
[0030] The adsorption assembly 3 includes a rubber part 10 and a metal part 11, wherein the rubber part 10 encloses the metal part 11 inside it. The connector 4 fixes the housing 1 and the metal part 11 together, thereby realizing the overall assembly of the housing 1 and the adsorption assembly 3. The bottom of the housing 1 is provided with a first connecting seat 12, and the top of the metal part 11 is provided with a second connecting seat 13. The second connecting seat 13 extends out of the top of the rubber part 10. The connector 4 achieves stable mechanical fixation through the connection between the first connecting seat 12 and the second connecting seat 13, for example by using a threaded fastening method.
[0031] Furthermore, the rubber component 10 consists of an upper rubber component 14 and a lower rubber component 15, with a metal component 11 sandwiched between them, and is integrally formed through a molding process. After molding, the metal component 11 is located in the central area of the rubber component 10, ensuring structural strength and stress balance. The upper rubber component 14 has a first slot 16 at its top for engaging the bottom of the dust cover 2, and the bottom of the housing 1 has a second slot 17 for engaging the top of the dust cover 2. The dust cover 2 is an annular sleeve with openings at both the top and bottom, and is fixed between the two components by a snap-fit method, which also allows for easy disassembly and replacement. The lower rubber component 15 has sealing ribs 18 at the bottom of its four edges to improve sealing performance during adsorption, thereby enhancing the adsorption effect.
[0032] Combination Figure 6As shown, this embodiment also provides a tile laying machine, which includes the aforementioned vacuum suction cup and vibration device 19. The vibration device 19 is also powered by the battery pack 9. The vibration device 19 includes a mounting base 20 and a vibrator 21. The mounting base 20 is fixed to the top of the adsorption assembly 3 and located inside the dust cover 2, specifically fixedly connected to the metal part 11, so that the entire vibration device 19 is positioned within a usable accommodating space between the housing 1 and the adsorption assembly 3. Due to the presence of the vibration device 19, a spring 22 is fitted onto the connecting part 4 to buffer the vibration transmitted to the main handle 7. The dust cover 2 encloses the spring 22, protecting it from external environmental influences without affecting the overall structural aesthetics.
[0033] Example 2: Unlike Example 1, as follows... Figure 7 As shown, in this embodiment, the bottom of the lower rubber component 15 is provided with an annular groove 23. A sealing element with a hardness lower than that of the lower rubber component 15, such as foam, can be installed in the annular groove 23 by means of adhesive or magnetic attraction, which facilitates quick replacement or adjustment according to different adsorption surfaces. The bottom of the sealing element extends out of the annular groove 23 to enhance the adaptability to the adsorption surface and the sealing performance.
[0034] In practical applications, when adsorbing rough-surfaced materials (such as unpolished stone), sealing performance can be improved by installing a sealant; while when adsorbing smooth-surfaced materials (such as polished ceramic tiles), the sealant can be removed, and the adsorption operation can be completed directly by the sealing ribs 18 of the rubber component 10 itself. This structural design improves the vacuum suction cup's adaptability to different materials and surface conditions, expanding its application scenarios.
[0035] The other structures in this embodiment are the same as in Embodiment 1, and will not be described again here.
[0036] This utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments described above. Any modifications made by those skilled in the art based on the above concept without creative effort shall fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
