Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of water surface cleaning equipment, and relates to a storage basket for a water surface cleaning robot. Background Technology

[0002] A water surface cleaning robot is a cleaning device that automatically collects floating debris on the water surface. The robot is propelled by a motor-driven impeller, moving across the water's surface. It has a built-in collection basket that collects debris as it moves, and the basket is removed and emptied after cleaning. However, most existing collection baskets lack a locking mechanism; they simply use protrusions to hold them in place, making them prone to detachment or falling off. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to address the aforementioned problems in existing technologies by proposing a storage basket for a water surface cleaning robot that can be quickly locked or unlocked, facilitating installation and cleaning.

[0004] The purpose of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solution: A storage basket for a water surface cleaning robot, comprising a storage basket body inserted into a frame, characterized in that the storage basket body has a hollow front baffle, and a switch assembly for locking the storage basket body to the frame is provided in the front baffle. The switch assembly includes a knob rotatably connected to the front baffle and two movable pins. Movable holes are opened on both sides of the front baffle for the outer ends of the movable pins to pass through. The inner ends of the movable pins are eccentrically hinged to the knob, and rotating the knob can insert the movable pins into the frame.

[0005] Furthermore, the knob is cylindrical, with a movable groove on its side for the movable pin to move, and two hinge shafts arranged symmetrically at 180° on the knob, with the inner end of the movable pin sleeved on the hinge shaft.

[0006] Furthermore, the front baffle has several supporting vertical plates, each with an elongated limiting groove, and the movable pin is located within the limiting groove.

[0007] Furthermore, the knob has an unlocking groove and a locking groove on its side, and the front baffle has a protrusion that engages with the unlocking groove or the locking groove.

[0008] Furthermore, the storage basket has an opening at the top and is connected to a top cover. The top cover has protruding pivots at both ends, and the side panels of the storage basket have connection holes for inserting the pivots. The top cover can be rotated upwards to remove the miscellaneous items inside the storage basket.

[0009] Furthermore, the bottom of the storage basket has a placement slot. Chlorine-containing disinfectants used for water purification, such as sodium hypochlorite and chlorine dioxide, can be placed in the placement slot.

[0010] During cleaning, the water surface cleaning robot collects debris into a storage basket for storage. Turning the knob retracts the movable pins into the front baffle or extends them to either side. The frame has locking holes for these pins; inserting the pins into these holes engages the locking grooves, preventing further rotation of the knob and locking the basket to the frame. The basket will not easily detach, allowing the robot to begin operation. When the basket needs cleaning, turning the knob engages the unlocking grooves, retracting the two movable pins into the front baffle. The basket can then be pulled out of the frame, and the top cover can be rotated to remove the debris. After cleaning, the basket is returned to the frame to collect debris again.

[0011] Compared with existing technologies, the storage basket of this water surface cleaning robot has the following advantages:

[0012] 1. The switch assembly uses a knob-driven movable pin structure. A slight rotation of the knob can unlock or lock the storage basket. The structure is simple, sturdy, and water resistant.

[0013] 2. The switch assembly occupies little space, is hidden inside the front panel, is not affected by external objects, and is durable. Attached Figure Description

[0020] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention, which are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0021] The storage basket of this water surface cleaning robot includes a storage basket 1 inserted into the frame. The storage basket 1 has a hollow front baffle 2. The front baffle 2 is equipped with a switch assembly that locks the storage basket 1 to the frame. The switch assembly includes a knob 3 rotatably connected to the front baffle 2 and two movable pins 4. Movable holes 5 are opened on both sides of the front baffle 2 for the outer ends of the movable pins 4 to pass through. The inner ends of the movable pins 4 are eccentrically hinged to the knob 3, and rotating the knob 3 can insert the movable pins 4 into the frame.

[0022] The knob 3 is cylindrical, and the side of the knob 3 has a movable groove 6 for the movable pin 4 to move. The knob 3 has two hinge shafts 7 arranged symmetrically at 180° center, and the inner end of the movable pin 4 is sleeved on the hinge shaft 7.

[0023] The front baffle 2 has several supporting vertical plates 8, and each supporting vertical plate 8 has a long, narrow limiting groove 9. The movable pin 4 is located within the limiting groove 9. The limiting groove 9 restricts the movable pin 4 to move only in the vertical plane, preventing the movable pin 4 from shaking in the horizontal plane.

[0024] The knob 3 has an unlocking groove 10 and a locking groove 11 on its side, and the front baffle 2 has a protrusion 12 that can be inserted into the unlocking groove 10 or the locking groove 11.

[0025] The storage basket 1 has an open top and is connected to a top cover 13. The top cover 13 has protruding pivots 14 at both ends, and the side panels of the storage basket 1 have connection holes 15 for inserting the pivots 14. The top cover 13 can be rotated upwards to remove debris from the storage basket 1. The bottom of the storage basket 1 has a placement slot 16, which can hold chlorine-containing disinfectants for water purification, such as sodium hypochlorite and chlorine dioxide.

[0026] During cleaning, the surface cleaning robot collects debris into a storage basket for storage. Turning knob 3 retracts the movable pins 4 into the front baffle 2 or extends them to either side. The frame has locking holes for the movable pins 4. Inserting the movable pins 4 into these holes engages the protrusions 12, preventing further rotation of knob 3 and locking the basket to the frame. The basket will not easily detach, allowing the surface cleaning robot to begin operation. When the basket needs cleaning, turning knob 3 engages the protrusions 12 into the unlocking slot 10. This retracts the two movable pins 4 into the front baffle 2, allowing the basket 1 to be pulled out from the frame. Rotating the top cover 13 removes the debris from the basket 1. After cleaning, the basket is returned to the frame for further debris collection.

[0027] The specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative examples illustrating the spirit of this utility model. Those skilled in the art to which this utility model pertains may make various modifications or additions to the described specific embodiments or use similar methods to substitute them, without departing from the spirit of this utility model or exceeding the scope defined by the appended claims.
