Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of interior devices for urban buses, specifically to a mop box specifically designed for use on buses. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of urban public transportation systems, the public's demands for cleanliness in bus carriages are increasing. Traditional bus cleaning tools (especially mops) often face the following problems in storage and management: 1. Existing vehicles generally lack dedicated storage devices; mops are often hung with simple hooks or placed directly in buckets, resulting in residual moisture on the tool surface not being drained in time, easily breeding bacteria and producing odors; 2. Tools are prone to shaking due to inertia during vehicle operation, posing a safety hazard of falling and injuring people; 3. Open storage methods expose cleaning tools, affecting the aesthetics of the carriage and potentially contaminating areas touched by passengers; 4. Traditional fixing devices lack drainage system design, and water leakage can easily cause corrosion of metal parts of the vehicle body; 5. Existing storage devices generally conflict with the space of handrails, seats, and other facilities inside the vehicle, making it difficult to achieve intensive space utilization. Although some general-purpose cleaning tool storage boxes exist on the market, their structural design is not well-matched to the unique vibration environment, spatial layout, and usage scenarios of buses, and cannot meet the needs of high-frequency, high-intensity bus operations. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a specialized mop storage device that is deeply integrated with the structure of a bus carriage and has functions such as anti-tipping, rapid drainage, space optimization, and hygiene protection. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a mop box specifically for buses, so as to solve the problem that there is currently no dedicated mop placement and management equipment on buses, which cannot meet the needs of actual use scenarios.

[0004] To solve the above problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0005] A mop box specifically designed for use on buses includes an upper upright panel and a lower drain box. The upright panel is a U-shaped trough structure with an open front. Hooks for placing mops are installed on the side walls of the inner cavity of the upright panel. An opening is formed on the rear side of the top surface of the drain box. The upright panel is installed at the opening and is connected to the drain box. A step is provided on the rear side of the bottom of the drain box, which can be engaged with the handrail base inside the bus. Positioning plates are provided on the upright panel and the drain box. The upright panel and the drain box are installed inside the bus via the positioning plates. A drain pipe head is also provided at the bottom of the drain box. A water pipe is installed at the drain pipe head.

[0006] Preferably, a reinforcing plate is provided between the inner wall of the upright plate and the hook; one end of the hook is installed at the middle position of the reinforcing plate.

[0007] Preferably, the drainage box and the upright plate are a single, integral structure that is fixedly connected; the stepped portion is located inside the drainage box, directly opposite the top outlet of the upright plate.

[0008] Preferably, the front side of the drainage tank is a semi-circular cylindrical curved surface.

[0009] Preferably, there are no fewer than two positioning plates, with one positioning plate located at the middle of either the left or right outer wall of the upright plate and the other positioning plate located at the bottom of either the left or right outer wall of the drain tank.

[0010] Preferably, the positioning plate has an L-shaped folded plate structure; positioning through holes are opened on both sides of the plate; and water sealing pads are provided at the positions where the upright plate and the drainage box meet the positioning plate.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are reflected in the following aspects:

[0012] 1. The structure adopts a grooved upright plate connected to the drainage box, and is installed in the carriage with a positioning plate to achieve effective connection between the device and the carriage wall; at the same time, the hook inside the upright plate is reinforced with a reinforcing plate to ensure that the mop and mop box can avoid serious shaking under the conditions of sudden braking or bumpy driving, thereby improving the structural stability.

[0013] 2. A stepped flow guiding structure is adopted at the bottom of the drain tank. Combined with the design of the drain pipe head and drain pipe at the bottom, it can improve drainage efficiency and prevent wastewater from continuously remaining in the mop box, affecting the hygiene of the vehicle interior.

[0014] 3. The cylindrical structure of the front plate of its drain box not only prevents sharp corners from colliding with passengers' legs and causing injury, but also prevents dust from flowing back due to its front sealing, ensuring the dryness and cleanliness of cleaning products.

[0015] 4. The mop box takes into full account the limited space inside the bus. The step structure on the back of the drain box can avoid interference with the handrail base, thereby maximizing space utilization. Attached Figure Description

[0021] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:

[0022] Example:

[0023] Reference Figure 1 This embodiment provides a mop box specifically for use on buses; it includes an upper upright plate 1 and a lower drain box 2; the upright plate 1 is a U-shaped channel plate structure that runs vertically through and is open at the front; hooks 3 for placing mops are installed on the side wall of the inner cavity of the upright plate 1; an opening is opened on the rear side of the top surface of the drain box 2; the upright plate 1 is installed at the opening position and is connected to the drain box 2; a step 4 is provided on the rear side of the bottom of the drain box 2, which can be locked at the handrail base position inside the passenger compartment; positioning plates 5 are provided on the upright plate 1 and the drain box 2; the upright plate 1 and the drain box 2 are installed inside the passenger compartment through the positioning plates 5; a drain pipe head 6 is also provided at the bottom of the drain box 2; a water pipe 7 is installed at the drain pipe head 6.

[0024] A reinforcing plate 8 is also provided between the inner wall of the upright plate 1 and the hook 3; one end of the hook 3 is installed in the middle of the reinforcing plate 8. The hook 3 is made of 304 stainless steel with an anti-slip texture, and the surface coating can prevent the metal parts of the mop from rusting and sticking. The reinforcing plate is a flat component, which can prevent the hook from loosening during vehicle movement.

[0025] The drainage tank 2 and the upright plate 1 are a single, integral structure that is fixedly connected; the stepped portion 4 is located inside the drainage tank 2, directly opposite the top outlet of the upright plate 1. In this embodiment, both the drainage tank and the upright plate are made of corrosion-resistant engineering plastics or other anti-corrosion materials, which reduces the overall weight while ensuring structural strength.

[0026] The front of the drainage tank 2 is a semi-circular cylindrical curved surface. Guide ribs can be installed inside the drainage tank 2 to direct wastewater from the inner cavity towards the drain pipe head 6. The bottom of the inner cavity of the tank has a 3° slope towards the drain pipe head to improve wastewater discharge efficiency.

[0027] There are no fewer than two positioning plates 5. One positioning plate is located at the middle of either the left or right outer wall of the upright plate 1, and the other positioning plate is located at the bottom of either the left or right outer wall of the drainage tank 2.

[0028] The positioning plate 5 has an L-shaped folded plate structure; positioning through holes are opened on both of its plates; and water sealing pads are installed at the positions where the upright plate 1 and the drainage box 2 meet the positioning plate 5.

[0029] When using the utility model device in this embodiment, simply hang the top of the used mop on the hook inside the upright plate so that its lower part can rest on the step position inside the drain tank, so that the wastewater on the mop can be discharged from the bottom.
