Detailed Implementation

[0030] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easy to understand, the following describes the winnowing basket of this utility model in detail with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0031] <Example 1>

[0032] This embodiment proposes a winnowing basket 10, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the device includes a hopper 1, a scraper 2, and a movable component. The hopper 1 has an opening at one end and a receiving cavity 11 for collecting waste. The scraper 2 is slidably disposed at the opening of the hopper 1 through the movable component, so that the scraper 2 has an extended state and a retracted state. The movable component can drive the scraper 2 to slide so that the scraper 2 switches between the extended state and the retracted state.

[0033] The scraper 2 has a base plate 22 and a row of scraping bristles 21 extending from one side of the base plate 22. The hopper 1 has a movable cavity 12 for the base plate 22 to move and a through hole 13 located on one side of the movable cavity 12 for the scraping bristles 21 to extend out. Specifically, the hopper 1 includes a body 14 and a cover plate 15 covering the body 14. The body 14 forms a receiving cavity 11, and a movable cavity 12 is formed between the body 14 and the cover plate 15. The top of the body 14 extends towards the cover plate 15 to form a retaining edge 16, and the retaining edge 16 has several through holes 13. When the scraper 2 is in the extended state, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the scraper 21 extends beyond the dustpan 1 and can be used to scrape off hair and other dirt from the broom; when in the retracted state, the scraper 21 retracts into the movable cavity 12 inside the dustpan 1, thereby removing the dirt remaining on the scraper 21 and letting it fall into the receiving cavity 11.

[0034] The movable component drives the substrate 22 to move back and forth within the movable cavity 12, causing the scraper 21 to switch between two states: extending out of the through hole 13 and retracting into the movable cavity 12. This achieves the switching of the scraper 2 between the extended and retracted states. Furthermore, as... Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the side of the baffle 16 facing the movable cavity 12 is also provided with at least one stop portion 161 for blocking the edge of the substrate 22, which can buffer and block the substrate 22 when it moves toward the extended state to avoid collision between the substrate 22 and the baffle 16.

[0035] like Figures 2-3 , Figures 5-6 As shown, the movable assembly has a movable seat 3, a connecting frame 4, and an elastic element 5. The middle part of the body 14 of the scoop 1 away from the side guard 16 is recessed downward to form a mounting cavity 141 for accommodating at least part of the movable seat 3. A guide post 51 is formed in the mounting cavity 141. The movable seat 3 is installed in the mounting cavity 141. A guide rod 52 that can extend into the guide post 51 is formed at the bottom of the movable seat 3. The elastic element 5 is a first spring. The first spring is pressed between the guide rod 52 and the guide post 51. The lower end of the guide rod 52 can extend into the guide post 51. Under the action of the first spring, the movable seat 3 can be moved vertically along the scoop 1 by pressing the movable seat 3.

[0036] like Figures 4-6 As shown, the connecting frame 4 includes a rotating shaft 41 mounted on the hopper 1 and a connecting rod 42 for linking the movable seat 3 and the base plate 22. A mounting seat 142 is formed in the mounting cavity 141 on the body 14 of the hopper 1. A pair of slots 143 are provided on the mounting seat 142, and the rotating shaft 41 is engaged in the pair of slots 143. There is a pair of connecting rods 42, symmetrically arranged at both ends of the rotating shaft 41. Each connecting rod 42 has a first connector 421 and a second connector 422. (See also...) Figure 6 One end of the connecting rod 42 is integrally connected to the rotating shaft 41, and the other end forms a second connector 422. A first connector 421 is formed near the second connector 422 on the connecting rod 42. The movable seat 3 is provided with a first inclined groove 31 that slides with the first connector 421. Figure 5 As shown, the first connector 421 is engaged in the first inclined groove 31; the base plate 22 is provided with a pair of connecting pieces 223 extending into the mounting cavity 141, and the connecting pieces 223 are provided with a second inclined groove 221 that slides with the second connector 422, and the second connector 422 is engaged in the second inclined groove 221.

[0037] In use, pressing down on the movable seat 3 causes the first connector 421 to engage in the first inclined groove 31, resulting in a downward thrust on the connecting rod 42. Since the rotating shaft 41 is engaged in the slot 143, the connecting rod 42 rotates counterclockwise around the shaft 41. During this rotation, the second connector 422 engages in the second inclined groove 221, causing the base plate 22 to move backward, thus retracting the scraper 21 into a retracted state. Removing the pressure on the movable seat 3 causes the movable seat 3, connecting rod 42, and base plate 22 to gradually return to their original positions under the action of the first spring, thus extending the scraper 21 outward.

[0038] To ensure more stable resetting of the substrate 22, an auxiliary spring 23 is also installed on the substrate 22, such as... Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, a mounting groove 222 is provided on the substrate 22 along its width direction (moving direction), and a pair of spring seats 231 are provided at both ends of the mounting groove 222, with an auxiliary spring 23 installed between the pair of spring seats 231.

[0039] like Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, the cover plate 15 has an opening groove 151 corresponding to the mounting cavity 141. The edge of the opening groove 151 extends downward to form a limiting stop 152. The movable seat 3 is provided with a limiting buckle 32 that cooperates with the limiting stop 152. The limiting buckle 32 abuts against the bottom of the limiting stop 152, thereby forming an upper limit on the movable seat 3 and preventing the movable seat 3 from disengaging when resetting. Figure 8 As shown, the cover plate 15 has a locking hole 153 on its edge at the opening slot 151. The body 14 has a corresponding locking edge 144 that can be fastened into the locking hole 153. Several locking edges are also provided on the outer edge of the cover plate 15, and the body 14 has corresponding locking holes for these locking edges to be fastened into, thereby realizing the fastening connection between the cover plate 15 and the body 14. The outer edge of the locking edge 144 is inclined, which serves as a guide.

[0040] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the bottom plate at the front opening of the main body 14 forms a guide surface 145, which makes it easy for the user to sweep the garbage into the dustpan during use. In order to strengthen the strength here, a reinforcing structure 146 can also be added to the bottom of the guide surface.

[0041] This embodiment uses a movable seat and a connecting frame. By pressing the movable seat, the connecting frame drives the scraper to slide, thus retracting the scraper. The debris on the scraper then automatically falls into the hopper through the edge, greatly facilitating hopper cleaning. Furthermore, the movable seat, connecting frame, and scraper are connected by a connector and a sloping groove, making the structure simpler and more stable, and ensuring smoother scraper sliding.

[0042] <Example 2>

[0043] This embodiment is based on the above embodiment 1, such as... Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the winnowing basket 10 also includes a handle base 6 for mounting a handle. The handle base 6 is rotatably mounted on the movable base 3 via a main shaft 62. The movable base 3 has at least two arc-shaped slots 33. A locking block 61 for engaging one of the arc-shaped slots 33 is movably mounted on the bottom of the handle base 6 via a second spring 7. By rotating the handle base 6, the locking block 61 engages with the arc-shaped slot 33, thus fixing the movable base 3 and the handle base 6. The handle base 6 has internal threads for easy handle installation.

[0044] In this embodiment, as Figure 10 The aforementioned arc-shaped slot 33 has two sections, one located at the top of the movable seat 3 and the other located at the front of the movable seat 3. When the locking block 61 is inserted into the arc-shaped slot 33 at the top, the handle seat 6 is in a vertical position; when the locking block 61 is inserted into the arc-shaped slot 33 at the front, the handle seat 6 is in a horizontal position, which facilitates storage.

[0045] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of specific implementations of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to the scope of the above embodiments. Various changes and modifications can be made to the present invention without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the present invention as claimed. The scope of protection of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
