[0002] In a sweeper-mop combo, the flexible cleaning roller rests against the surface to be cleaned, sweeping away debris and removing dirt. During the cleaning process, the sweeper-mop combo often encounters obstacles such as carpets or high steps, requiring the flexible cleaning roller to be raised. However, the structures for raising the flexible cleaning roller in related technologies are complex and costly. Utility Model Content

[0010] The sliding component includes a transmission part and a sliding part arranged along the axial direction of the flexible cleaning roller. The transmission part is meshed with the drive motor, and the sliding part is slidably connected to the mating part.
[0011] The sliding part is provided with a first inclined surface, and the mating part is provided with a second inclined surface. The first inclined surface and the second inclined surface have the same inclination direction, and the first inclined surface and the second inclined surface abut against each other.
[0012] The sliding part is provided with a limiting block, and the inner sidewall of the housing is provided with two limiting protrusions arranged at intervals along the axial direction of the flexible cleaning roller. The limiting block is located between the two limiting protrusions, and the limiting protrusions are used to abut against the limiting block.
[0013] The cleaning device further includes a detection component disposed on one side of the sliding member. The detection component includes a control unit and a detection unit electrically connected. The detection unit is used to acquire the position information of the sliding member, and the control unit is used to receive the position information and control the sliding member to slide.
[0014] The bracket body includes a top surface facing away from the surface to be cleaned and a side surface bent and connected to the top surface. The mating part protrudes from the top surface. The lifting bracket also includes a rotating part rotatably connected to the housing, and the rotating part is located on the side surface.
[0015] The rotating part is rotatably connected to the housing at the end away from the support body, and the rotating part is inclined toward the surface to be cleaned.

[0017] The second aspect of this application provides a sweeping and mopping machine, which includes a control component and a cleaning device as provided in the first aspect of this application. The control component is disposed on the cleaning device and is used to control the operation of the cleaning device.
[0018] The cleaning device and sweeping and mopping machine provided in this application, by setting a sliding member and a mating part to cooperate with each other, allows the sliding member to slide along the axial direction of the flexible cleaning roller, driving the mating part to move and causing the lifting bracket to rotate relative to the housing, thereby changing the position of the flexible cleaning roller; specifically, when it is necessary to lift the flexible cleaning roller, the sliding member slides along the first direction, thereby causing the lifting bracket to rotate in a direction away from the surface to be cleaned, so as to lift the flexible cleaning roller; when the flexible cleaning roller touches the surface to be cleaned, the sliding member slides along the second direction, thereby causing the lifting bracket to rotate in a direction closer to the surface to be cleaned, so that the flexible cleaning roller is in contact with the ground.
[0019] In addition, because the lifting bracket is rotatably connected to the housing, when it encounters a small obstacle, the lifting bracket can be passively lifted without the need to use a sliding part to trigger the mating part, so that the lifting bracket can rotate in a direction away from the surface to be cleaned, thereby lifting the flexible cleaning roller.
[0020] Therefore, this embodiment, by setting up a sliding component and a lifting bracket, has a simple structure, low cost, and facilitates the lifting and lowering of the flexible cleaning roller. It can prevent the flexible cleaning roller from getting tangled in carpets, easily overcome obstacles such as carpets or high steps, and also allows the flexible cleaning roller to adapt to the pressure acting on the ground, reducing frictional resistance to the ground and improving the flexibility of the cleaning device. Furthermore, it allows the flexible cleaning roller to float and adhere closely to the ground in its natural state, which is beneficial to improving the cleaning effect of the flexible cleaning roller. It can also tolerate a large tolerance in the outer diameter of the flexible cleaning roller, and also reduces wear between the flexible cleaning roller and the ground, extending the service life of the flexible cleaning roller.

Detailed Implementation
[0032] The following are preferred embodiments of this application. It should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principles of this application, and these improvements and modifications are also considered to be within the scope of protection of this application.
[0033] In view of this, in order to solve the above problems, please refer to the following: Figures 1-5 This embodiment provides a cleaning device 1, which includes a housing 11, a drive assembly 12, and a lifting bracket 13. The housing 11 has a receiving space; the drive assembly 12 is disposed in the receiving space and includes a sliding member 121; the lifting bracket 13 is disposed in the receiving space and is rotatably connected to the housing 11. The lifting bracket 13 includes a bracket body 131 and a mating part 132 disposed on the bracket body 131, the mating part 132 being slidably connected to the sliding member 121; a flexible cleaning roller 14 is fixed to the bracket body 131 and is used to abut against the surface to be cleaned 3. The flexible cleaning roller 14 can absorb liquid and also sweep away debris placed on the surface to be cleaned 3.
[0034] The sliding member 121 can slide along the axial direction of the flexible cleaning roller 14 to drive the mating part 132 to move, so that the lifting bracket 13 rotates in a direction away from or towards the surface to be cleaned 3.
[0035] Specifically, the sliding member 121 can slide relative to the mating part 132 in a first direction to move the mating part 132 and rotate the lifting bracket 13 in a direction away from the surface to be cleaned 3; the sliding member 121 can also slide relative to the mating part 132 in a second direction opposite to the first direction to move the mating part 132 and rotate the lifting bracket 13 in a direction closer to the surface to be cleaned 3, and both the first direction and the second direction are parallel to the axial direction of the flexible cleaning roller 14.
[0036] The cleaning device 1 provided in this embodiment mainly includes a housing 11, a drive assembly 12, a lifting bracket 13, and a flexible cleaning roller 14. However, this does not mean that the cleaning device 1 can only include the above-mentioned structures. The cleaning device 1 may also include a brush roller, a fixed bracket, a filter element, a cleaning shovel 15, a garbage box, a motor, a clean water tank, a wastewater tank, a water pump, an air pump, etc.
[0037] The drive assembly 12, lifting bracket 13, flexible cleaning roller 14, brush roller, fixed bracket, filter element, cleaning shovel 15, garbage box, motor, clean water tank, wastewater tank, water pump, and air pump are all housed within the housing 11. The fixed bracket and cleaning shovel 15 are located on opposite sides of the flexible cleaning roller 14. The cleaning shovel 15 and brush roller are located on the side of the flexible cleaning roller 14 away from the fixed bracket. The cleaning shovel 15 is located between the flexible cleaning roller 14 and the garbage box. The brush roller is farther away from the surface to be cleaned 3 than the cleaning shovel 15. The fixed bracket has extrusion protrusions on its surface facing the flexible cleaning roller 14. These extrusion protrusions are used to extrude wastewater from the flexible cleaning roller 14. The fixed bracket, flexible cleaning roller 14, and cleaning shovel 15 are all housed within the bracket body 131.
[0038] The flexible cleaning roller 14 is capable of absorbing liquid and is elastic. The flexible cleaning roller 14 is used to sweep away debris placed on the surface 3 to be cleaned, and also to remove dirt placed on the surface 3 to be cleaned. The fixing bracket is used to cooperate with the flexible cleaning roller 14 to achieve a seal and to squeeze the wastewater from the flexible cleaning roller 14. The filter element is used to filter impurities from the wastewater.
[0039] The outer periphery of the brush roller is equipped with cleaning bristles, which are used to sweep away debris from the self-cleaning roller 14. The cleaning shovel 15 collects and guides the movement of debris, and the debris box stores the debris removed by the self-cleaning shovel 15. A motor drives the rotation of the self-cleaning roller 14 and also drives the rotation of the brush roller.
[0040] The clean water tank stores clean water, and the wastewater tank stores wastewater. A water pump draws clean water from the clean water tank and outputs it to the flexible cleaning roller 14. An air pump evacuates the wastewater tank, creating a negative pressure environment that draws wastewater into it.
[0041] The fixed support has a water flow channel for storing and guiding wastewater from the flexible cleaning roller 14. The housing 11 has a clean water pipe and a wastewater pipe. The clean water pipe connects the clean water tank to one end of the water flow channel, and the wastewater pipe connects the wastewater tank to the other end of the water flow channel. The clean water pipe is used to input clean water, and the wastewater pipe is used to discharge wastewater. When the flexible cleaning roller 14 rotates, the clean water in the clean water tank flows to the flexible cleaning roller 14 through the clean water pipe and the water flow channel. Meanwhile, the wastewater in the flexible cleaning roller 14 is squeezed out by the extrusion protrusions on the fixed support, and the wastewater flows to the wastewater tank through the water flow channel and the wastewater pipe, thereby cleaning the flexible cleaning roller 14.
[0042] Optionally, the cleaning device 1 further includes two sealing elements respectively disposed at opposite ends of the fixed bracket, the two sealing elements being used to seal the water flow channel. A clean water pipe passes through one sealing element and connects to the water flow channel, while a sewage pipe passes through the other sealing element and connects to the water flow channel.
[0043] This application also provides a sweeping and mopping robot 2, which includes a control component and a cleaning device 1. The control component is disposed on the cleaning device 1. The control component includes a controller and a sensor electrically connected to each other. The sensor is used to acquire sensing information and send the sensing information to the controller. The controller is used to receive the sensing information and control the cleaning device 1 to operate according to the sensing information.
[0044] The sweeper-mop combo 2 also includes a moving component, which is located on the cleaning device 1 and is used to move the cleaning device 1 and the control component. Optionally, the moving component includes multiple wheels that can rotate relative to the surface to be cleaned 3, thereby moving the sweeper-mop combo 2 and the control component.
[0045] When the sweeper and mop combo 2 is sweeping, the motor drives the flexible cleaning roller 14 to rotate in the first cleaning direction, which in turn drives the brush roller to rotate in the same direction. The rotation direction of the moving components is the same as the first cleaning direction. As the flexible cleaning roller 14 sweeps away the debris placed on the surface to be cleaned 3, the cleaning blades 15 collect and guide the debris, and the brush roller sweeps the debris from the flexible cleaning roller 14 into the debris box. Here, "debris" refers to unwanted or useless solid or liquid substances, which are waste generated by users in production, consumption, daily life, and other activities. Examples include used toilet paper, scattered vegetable roots, and fruit peels.
[0046] When the sweeper and mop combo 2 is mopping, the motor drives the flexible cleaning roller 14 to rotate in a second cleaning direction. The rotation direction of the moving component is opposite to the second cleaning direction to remove dirt from the surface 3 to be cleaned. The second cleaning direction is opposite to the first cleaning direction. Dirt refers to mud, oil stains, or other impurities that have soiled the surface 3. Dirt can adhere to the surface of an object, such as dust or oil stains.
[0047] It should be noted that the working order of the various structural components of the sweeping and mopping machine 2 mentioned above is not important and should not be construed as a limitation of this application.
[0048] The inner wall of the housing 11 provided in this embodiment forms a receiving space. The drive assembly 12, the lifting bracket 13, at least a portion of the flexible cleaning roller 14, at least a portion of the cleaning shovel 15, the brush roller, and the trash can are disposed within the receiving space.
[0049] The flexible cleaning roller 14 provided in this embodiment is used to sweep away debris placed on the surface 3 to be cleaned, and also to remove dirt placed on the surface 3 to be cleaned. The flexible cleaning roller 14 can rotate along its own axis, and the outer periphery of the flexible cleaning roller 14 is made of flexible material, which can adsorb tiny dust particles, impurities, and other substances. The flexible cleaning roller 14 rubs against the surface 3 to be cleaned to adsorb dirt, debris, and other substances on the surface 3 to be cleaned onto the flexible cleaning roller 14, thereby achieving the cleaning of the surface 3 to be cleaned.
[0050] The drive assembly 12 provided in this embodiment is used to drive the lifting bracket 13 to rotate relative to the housing 11. The drive assembly 12 includes a slider 121, which is capable of sliding along the axial direction of the flexible cleaning roller 14. Optionally, the slider 121 can be driven to slide by a drive motor 122, or the slider 121 can be driven to slide manually. The slider 121 is disposed on one side of the lifting bracket 13.
[0051] This embodiment provides a lifting bracket 13 for cooperating with a drive assembly 12 to change the position of the flexible cleaning roller 14. The lifting bracket 13 includes a mating portion 132 and a bracket body 131. The bracket body 131 has an accommodating space, within which the flexible cleaning roller 14 is disposed. Optionally, the mating portion 132 extends vertically. Optionally, the mating portion 132 and the bracket body 131 are integral structural components, or the mating portion 132 is detachably connected to the bracket body 131. Optionally, the flexible cleaning roller 14 is detachably connected to the cavity wall of the accommodating space. Optionally, a fixed bracket is detachably connected to the cavity wall of the accommodating space.
[0052] The cleaning device 1 provided in this embodiment uses a sliding member 121 and a mating part 132 to cooperate with each other, allowing the sliding member 121 to slide along the axial direction of the flexible cleaning roller 14, driving the mating part 132 to move and causing the lifting bracket 13 to rotate relative to the housing 11, thereby changing the position of the flexible cleaning roller 14. Specifically, when it is necessary to lift the flexible cleaning roller 14, the sliding member 121 slides along a first direction, causing the lifting bracket 13 to rotate in a direction away from the surface to be cleaned 3, thereby lifting the flexible cleaning roller 14. When the flexible cleaning roller 14 comes into contact with the surface to be cleaned 3, the sliding member 121 slides along a second direction, causing the lifting bracket 13 to rotate in a direction closer to the surface to be cleaned 3, so that the flexible cleaning roller 14 is in contact with the ground. The first direction is as follows: Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown in D1, the second direction is as follows Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown in D2 in the diagram.
[0053] In addition, since the lifting bracket 13 is rotatably connected to the housing 11, when encountering small obstacles, the lifting bracket 13 can be passively lifted without using the sliding member 121 to trigger the mating part 132, so that the lifting bracket 13 can rotate in a direction away from the surface to be cleaned 3 to lift the flexible cleaning roller 14.
[0054] Therefore, this embodiment utilizes the fixed rotation point formed between the lifting bracket 13 and the housing 11 to form a floating structure that lifts or lowers the flexible cleaning roller 14. When encountering carpets or high steps that require active lifting, the lifting bracket 13 can be rotated by driving the sliding member 121 to lift the flexible cleaning roller 14 to the moving height to cross the obstacle. After crossing the obstacle, the flexible cleaning roller 14 is lowered. When encountering small obstacles, the lifting bracket 13 can also be passively lifted.
[0055] In summary, this embodiment, by setting up the sliding member 121 and the lifting bracket 13, has a simple structure, low cost, and facilitates the lifting and lowering of the flexible cleaning roller 14. It can prevent the flexible cleaning roller 14 from being entangled in carpets, easily overcome obstacles such as carpets or high steps, and enable the flexible cleaning roller 14 to adapt to the pressure acting on the ground, reducing frictional resistance to the ground and improving the flexibility of the cleaning device 1. It also allows the flexible cleaning roller 14 to float and closely adhere to the ground in its natural state, which is beneficial to improving the cleaning effect of the flexible cleaning roller 14. It can also tolerate a large tolerance in the outer diameter of the flexible cleaning roller 14, and reduce wear between the flexible cleaning roller 14 and the ground, thus extending the service life of the flexible cleaning roller 14.
[0056] Please refer to this as well. Figures 1-7In one embodiment, the drive assembly 12 further includes a drive motor 122, which is connected to the slider 121 and is used to drive the slider 121 to slide along the axial direction of the flexible cleaning roller 14.
[0057] The drive motor 122 is used to drive the slider 121 to slide along a first direction or a second direction. Optionally, the drive motor 122 is directly connected to the slider 121, or the drive motor 122 indirectly drives the slider 121 to slide through a transmission component. For example, the transmission component can be a slider drive, a gear reducer, or a synchronous belt drive, etc. Optionally, the drive motor 122 can be a direct drive motor, a servo motor, or a stepper motor, etc. The drive motor 122 and the slider 121 are located on the same side of the lifting bracket 13.
[0058] In summary, by providing a drive motor 122, this embodiment can actively lift the flexible cleaning roller 14 according to user or environmental needs, thereby making the cleaning device 1 suitable for more cleaning scenarios and improving the reliability of the cleaning device 1.
[0059] Please refer to this as well. Figures 1-8 In one embodiment, the sliding member 121 includes a transmission part 1211 and a sliding part 1212 arranged along the axial direction of the flexible cleaning roller 14. The transmission part 1211 is engaged with the drive motor 122, and the sliding part 1212 is slidably connected to the mating part 132.
[0060] The drive motor 122 includes a mechanism and a transmission wheel that is connected to the mechanism. The transmission wheel is meshed with the transmission part 1211. For example, the transmission wheel has one ring of external teeth, and the transmission part 1211 is provided with a rack that extends along the axial direction of the flexible cleaning roller 14. The external teeth of the transmission wheel mesh with the rack of the transmission part 1211. Specifically, the mechanism drives the transmission wheel to rotate, and the transmission wheel drives the transmission part 1211 to slide along the axial direction of the flexible cleaning roller 14, thereby driving the sliding member 121 to slide along the axial direction of the flexible cleaning roller 14.
[0061] In summary, by setting the sliding part 1212 and the transmission part 1211 to cooperate with each other, this embodiment not only enables the drive motor 122 to reliably rotate the lifting bracket 13 through the sliding member 121, but also the sliding member 121 has a simple structure and low cost, which reduces the difficulty of lifting or lowering the flexible cleaning roller 14 and improves the reliability of the cleaning device 1.
[0062] Please refer to this as well. Figures 1-8In one embodiment, the sliding part 1212 is provided with a first inclined surface 1213, and the mating part 132 is provided with a second inclined surface 1321. The first inclined surface 1213 and the second inclined surface 1321 have the same inclination direction, and the first inclined surface 1213 abuts against the second inclined surface 1321.
[0063] A first inclined surface 1213 is provided on the surface of the sliding part 1212 facing the mating part 132, and a second inclined surface 1321 is provided on the surface of the mating part 132 facing the sliding part 1212. The first inclined surface 1213 can cooperate with the second inclined surface 1321, so that the mating part 132 slides under the action of the sliding part 1212. The first inclined surface 1213 and the second inclined surface 1321 have the same inclination direction, which can also be understood as the angle between the first slider and the horizontal line being equal to the angle between the second slider and the horizontal line.
[0064] The first inclined surface 1213 has a proximal end and a distal end, with the proximal end being closer to the mating part 132 than the distal end. When the sliding member 121 slides along the first direction, the proximal end first abuts against the second inclined surface 1321. As the sliding part 1212 continues to slide, the proximal end separates from the second inclined surface 1321 and the distal end abuts against the second inclined surface 1321, thereby causing the mating part 132 to move backward and drive the lifting bracket 13 to rotate in a direction away from the surface to be cleaned 3, that is, to lift the flexible cleaning roller 14.
[0065] Conversely, when the sliding member 121 slides along the second direction, the distal end gradually separates from the second inclined surface 1321 and the proximal end abuts against the second inclined surface 1321, thereby causing the mating part 132 to reset and move forward, and drive the lifting bracket 13 to rotate toward the direction close to the surface to be cleaned 3, that is, to lower the flexible cleaning roller 14.
[0066] In summary, this embodiment provides a first inclined surface 1213 on the sliding part 1212 and a second inclined surface 1321 on the mating part 132, enabling the sliding part 1212 to smoothly drive the mating part 132 to slide. This results in a simple structure, low cost, reduced operational difficulty in raising or lowering the flexible cleaning roller 14, and improved reliability of the cleaning device 1.
[0067] Please refer to this as well. Figures 1-9 In one embodiment, the sliding part 1212 is provided with a limiting block 1214, and the inner sidewall of the housing 11 is provided with two limiting protrusions 111 arranged at intervals along the axial direction of the flexible cleaning roller 14. The limiting block 1214 is disposed between the two limiting protrusions 111, and the limiting protrusions 111 are used to abut against the limiting block 1214.
[0068] A limiting block 1214 is provided on the side of the sliding portion 1212 opposite to the mating portion 132. A limiting protrusion 111 is used to limit the sliding range of the sliding portion 1212. The limiting protrusion 111 is provided on the inner sidewall of the housing 11 facing the sliding portion 1212. The two limiting protrusions 111 limit the sliding range of the limiting block 1214, thereby limiting the sliding range of the sliding portion 1212 and the sliding range of the sliding member 121. As the sliding member 121 slides along the first direction, it continues until the limiting block 1214 abuts against one limiting protrusion 111; conversely, as the sliding member 121 slides along the second direction, it continues until the limiting block 1214 abuts against the other limiting protrusion 111.
[0069] In summary, this embodiment improves the reliability of the cleaning device 1 by setting two limiting protrusions 111 to limit the sliding range of the sliding part 1212, thereby limiting the sliding range of the sliding member 121 and the rotation range of the lifting bracket 13.
[0070] Please refer to this as well. Figures 1-7 In one embodiment, the cleaning device 1 further includes a detection component disposed on one side of the slider 121. The detection component includes a control unit and a detection unit 123 electrically connected. The detection unit 123 is used to acquire the position information of the slider 121, and the control unit is used to receive the position information and control the slider 121 to slide.
[0071] The detection unit 123 is used to acquire the position information of the slider 121 and also to send the position information to the control unit. The control unit receives the position information and is also used to control the slider 121 to slide according to the position information. The detection unit 123 is disposed on one side of the slider 121 and has a guide groove 1231 extending along the axial direction of the flexible cleaning roller 14. At least a portion of the slider 121 is disposed within the guide groove 1231, and the slider 121 is capable of sliding relative to the guide groove 1231.
[0072] Optionally, the detection unit 123 is a photoelectric sensor. When the slider 121 is located in or away from the guide groove 1231, the detection unit 123 acquires the position information of the slider 121.
[0073] Optionally, the position information includes a first position signal and a second position signal. When the detection unit 123 acquires the first position signal, the flexible cleaning roller 14 is in a raised state. The control unit receives the first position signal and controls the drive motor 122 to stop working so that the sliding member 121 stops sliding. When the detection unit 123 acquires the second position signal, the flexible cleaning roller 14 abuts against the receiving surface 3. The control unit receives the second position signal and controls the drive motor 122 to work so that the sliding member 121 slides.
[0074] Optionally, the guide groove 1231 includes a first sub-groove 1231a and a second sub-groove 1231b spaced apart along the axial direction of the flexible cleaning roller 14. When the sliding member 121 is located in or away from the first sub-groove 1231a, the detection unit 123 acquires a first position signal; when the sliding member 121 is located in or away from the second sub-groove 1231b, the detection unit 123 acquires a second position signal.
[0075] In summary, this embodiment, by setting up a detection component to control the drive motor 122, thereby controlling the sliding of the slider 121, is simple to operate and improves the reliability of the cleaning device 1.
[0076] Please refer to this as well. Figures 1-6 In one embodiment, the support body 131 includes a top surface facing away from the surface to be cleaned 3 and a side surface bent and connected to the top surface. The mating part 132 protrudes from the top surface. The lifting support 13 also includes a rotating part 133 rotatably connected to the housing 11, and the rotating part 133 is located on the side surface.
[0077] The mating part 132 protrudes from the top surface, which can also be understood as the mating part 132 being higher than the top surface, to provide space for the mating part 132 to cooperate with the sliding member 121. The rotating part 133 protrudes from the side surface, to provide space for the rotating part 133 to cooperate with the housing 11.
[0078] Optionally, the number of mating parts 132 is at least one, and the extending direction of the mating parts 132 is the same as the arrangement direction from the side to the top surface. Optionally, the number of rotating parts 133 is at least one, and more preferably, the number of rotating parts 133 is two, with the two rotating parts 133 arranged at intervals along the axial direction of the flexible cleaning roller 14. Optionally, the rotating parts 133 and the support body 131 are integral structural components, or the rotating parts 133 are detachably connected to the support body 131.
[0079] In summary, this embodiment limits the mating part 132 to protrude from the top surface of the support body 131 and the rotating part 133 to the side surface of the support body 131. This not only avoids mutual interference between the mating part 132 and the rotating part 133, but also provides space for the mating part 132 to cooperate with the sliding member 121 and space for the rotating part 133 to cooperate with the housing 11, thereby improving the reliability of the cleaning device 1.
[0080] Please refer to this as well. Figures 1-6 In one embodiment, the end of the rotating part 133 away from the support body 131 is rotatably connected to the housing 11, and the rotating part 133 is inclined toward the surface to be cleaned 3.
[0081] The rotating part 133 includes a first end and a second end disposed opposite to each other. The first end is connected to the bracket body 131, and the second end is disposed away from the bracket body 131 and is rotatably connected to the housing 11. The arrangement direction from the first end to the second end is the extension direction of the rotating part 133, and the arrangement direction from the first end to the second end is set at an angle with the horizontal direction. Optionally, the angle between the arrangement direction from the first end to the second end and the horizontal direction is an acute angle.
[0082] In summary, this embodiment reduces the difficulty of lifting or lowering the flexible cleaning roller 14 by limiting the position of the rotating part 133 rotatably connected to the housing 11 and setting the rotating part 133 at an angle.
[0083] Please refer to this as well. Figures 1-5 In one embodiment, the cleaning device 1 further includes a cleaning shovel 15, which is disposed on one side of the flexible cleaning roller 14 and fixed to the support body 131. The cleaning shovel 15 is used to collect and guide the movement of garbage.
[0084] The support body 131 has an accommodating space, within which the cleaning spatula 15 is disposed. Optionally, the cleaning spatula 15 is detachably connected to the cavity wall of the accommodating space. Optionally, the cleaning spatula 15 and the rotating part 133 are disposed on opposite sides of the flexible cleaning roller 14. When the sliding member 121 can slide along the first direction, the lifting support 13 rotates away from the surface to be cleaned 3, thereby simultaneously lifting the flexible cleaning roller 14 and the cleaning spatula 15; when the sliding member 121 can slide along the second direction, the lifting support 13 rotates towards the surface to be cleaned 3, thereby simultaneously lowering the flexible cleaning roller 14 and the cleaning spatula 15.
[0085] In summary, by mounting the cleaning shovel 15 on the support body 131, this embodiment enables the lifting support 13 to simultaneously lift and lower the cleaning shovel 15 and the flexible cleaning roller 14. This prevents the cleaning shovel 15 from getting tangled in the carpet, allowing it to easily overcome obstacles such as carpets or high steps, thus improving the flexibility of the cleaning device 1. It also reduces wear between the cleaning shovel 15 and the ground, extending the service life of the cleaning shovel 15.
[0086] Please refer to this as well. Figures 1-9 This application also provides a sweeping and mopping machine 2, which includes a control component and a cleaning device 1 as described above. The control component is disposed on the cleaning device 1 and is used to control the operation of the cleaning device 1.
[0087] The sweeping and mopping machine 2 provided in this application adopts the cleaning device 1 provided in this application. The cleaning device 1 is provided with a sliding member 121 and a cooperating part 132 to cooperate with each other, so that the sliding member 121 can slide along the axial direction of the flexible cleaning roller 14, drive the cooperating part 132 to move and make the lifting bracket 13 rotate relative to the housing 11, so as to change the position of the flexible cleaning roller 14. Specifically, when it is necessary to lift the flexible cleaning roller 14, the sliding member 121 slides along the first direction, so that the lifting bracket 13 rotates in a direction away from the surface to be cleaned 3, so as to lift the flexible cleaning roller 14. When the flexible cleaning roller 14 touches the surface to be cleaned 3, the sliding member 121 slides along the second direction, so that the lifting bracket 13 rotates in a direction closer to the surface to be cleaned 3, so that the flexible cleaning roller 14 is in contact with the ground.
[0088] In addition, since the lifting bracket 13 is rotatably connected to the housing 11, when encountering small obstacles, the lifting bracket 13 can be passively lifted without using the sliding member 121 to trigger the mating part 132, so that the lifting bracket 13 can rotate in a direction away from the surface to be cleaned 3 to lift the flexible cleaning roller 14.
[0089] Therefore, this embodiment, by setting the sliding member 121 and the lifting bracket 13, has a simple structure, low cost, and facilitates the lifting and lowering of the flexible cleaning roller 14. It can prevent the flexible cleaning roller 14 from being entangled in carpets, easily overcome obstacles such as carpets or high steps, and enable the flexible cleaning roller 14 to adapt to the pressure acting on the ground, reducing frictional resistance to the ground and improving the flexibility of the cleaning device 1. It also allows the flexible cleaning roller 14 to float and stick to the ground in its natural state, which is beneficial to improving the cleaning effect of the flexible cleaning roller 14. It can also tolerate a large tolerance in the outer diameter of the flexible cleaning roller 14, and reduce wear between the flexible cleaning roller 14 and the ground, thus extending the service life of the flexible cleaning roller 14.
