Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of floor cleaning machines, specifically a roller brush mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] Common floor cleaning machines include floor scrubbers, vacuum cleaners, and floor polishers, all of which use a roller brush located at the front of the brush to wipe the floor and pick up debris. To simplify the internal structure of the brush body, current technology places the motor that drives the roller brush inside the brush drum. However, since floor cleaning machines frequently clean surfaces containing liquids, the roller brush remains in a wet environment for extended periods, making waterproofing the motor particularly important. Furthermore, the area at the front of the brush body where the roller brush is located accumulates dirt over time. Due to the presence of the motor, the front of the brush body cannot be directly rinsed with water and must be manually cleaned, presenting a cleaning challenge. Summary of the Invention
[0003] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, this utility model provides a roller brush mechanism.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is:
