Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tile grout residue cleaning technology, and in particular to a waste glue collection tank for cleaning tile grout residue. Background Technology
[0002] Grout residue collection troughs are commonly used in grout application to collect excess grout residue after application, preventing it from contaminating the tile surface or scattering around. They can centrally collect waste adhesive, reducing cleaning difficulty and improving construction efficiency. At the same time, they prevent the residue from hardening and becoming difficult to remove, protecting the aesthetics of the tiles and the quality of the grout. They are an important auxiliary tool for achieving clean and efficient grout application.
[0003] In practical applications, existing technologies for collecting waste adhesive from excess grout, using scrapers and storage cavities, can meet the basic needs for waste removal. However, the following problems still exist:
[0004] Common grout residue collection tanks typically collect grout residue after the grouting process is complete. However, since grout hardens quickly when exposed to air, some residue hardens and adheres to the tile surface while waiting to be collected, making it difficult to remove completely and affecting work efficiency. Therefore, this application provides a grout residue collection tank to meet this need. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies and provide a waste glue collection tank for cleaning up excess tile grout.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model adopts the following technical solution: a waste adhesive collection tank for cleaning up excess tile grout, including a handle and a mounting base disposed at one end of the handle, and further including:
[0007] A collection assembly includes a base plate mounted on the side of a mounting base, the top of the base plate having a first guide groove and an inclined groove, and the side of the base plate having a protective shell.
[0008] The mounting assembly includes a snap-fit plate disposed on the side of the protective shell, and the side of the snap-fit plate is provided with protrusions.
[0009] Furthermore, a cover plate is provided on the top of the base plate, and a second guide groove is provided on the bottom of the cover plate.
[0010] The technical effect of adopting the above technical solution is that by setting a cover plate, the shape of the waste material can be constrained when it enters the inner cavity of the inclined chute.
[0011] Furthermore, the cover plate is provided with a spring tab on its side, and both ends of the spring tab are connected to a snap-fit block.
[0012] The technical effect of the above technical solution is as follows: by setting a spring, the snap-fit block can be prompted to enter the inner cavity of the snap-fit groove. After the snap-fit block enters the inner cavity of the snap-fit groove, the spring releases the stress, thereby prompting the snap-fit block to snap into the inner cavity of the snap-fit groove. By designing the side of the snap-fit block to have a certain tilt angle, it is easy to drive the snap-fit block out of the inner cavity of the snap-fit groove.
[0013] Furthermore, a fixing plate is connected to the top of the base plate, and a snap-fit groove is provided on the side of the fixing plate.
[0014] The technical effects of adopting the above technical solution are: by setting a fixing plate, the cover plate can be supported; by opening a snap-fit groove, the snap-fit block and the spring clip can be easily snapped together.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0016] By setting a base plate, the mounting base can be supported. The inclined groove on the top of the base plate and the first guide groove work together to guide the excess material into the inner cavity of the protective shell while smoothing the grout. This allows for the collection of excess material, effectively improving work efficiency and eliminating the need for secondary collection and cleaning. It also prevents the grout from hardening in the air and avoids overflowing of excess material. Attached Figure Description

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0026] like Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment provides a technical solution: a waste adhesive collection tank for cleaning up excess tile grout, including a handle 1 and a mounting base 11 disposed at one end of the handle 1, and further including:
[0027] The collection component 2 includes a base plate 21 installed on the side of the mounting base 11. The top of the base plate 21 is provided with a first guide groove 24 and an inclined groove 23, and the side of the base plate 21 is provided with a protective shell 25.
[0028] The mounting component 3 includes a snap-fit plate 33 disposed on the side of the protective shell 25, with protrusions 32 on the side of the snap-fit plate 33. A cover plate 22 is disposed on the top of the base plate 21, with a second guide groove 27 at the bottom of the cover plate 22. A spring piece 28 is disposed on the side of the cover plate 22, with snap-fit blocks 29 connected to both ends of the spring piece 28. A fixing plate 26 is connected to the top of the base plate 21, with snap-fit grooves 210 on the side of the fixing plate 26. The bottom of the cover plate 22 is slidably connected to the top of the base plate 21. By setting the base plate 21, the grout can be smoothed. While smoothing the grout, the side of the base plate 21 pushes the excess material forward. When the excess material accumulates to a certain extent at the front end of the base plate 21, it is guided by the inclined groove 23 on the top of the base plate 21. The excess material enters the inner cavity of the first guide groove 24. At this time, the base plate 21 continues to move forward, and the accumulated sealant squeezes the inner cavity of the first guide groove 24. Through the cooperation of the first guide groove 24 and the second guide groove 27, the excess material can be guided into the inner cavity of the protective shell 25. This allows the excess material to be collected while smoothing, preventing it from being scattered near the tile gaps and affecting subsequent cleaning efficiency. The fixing plate 26 provides support for the cover plate 22. The middle part of the spring piece 28 is fixedly connected to the side of the cover plate 22. Through the cooperation of the spring piece 28, the snap-fit block 29 and the snap-fit groove 210, the cover plate 22 and the fixing plate 26 can be quickly disassembled and assembled, which facilitates the cleaning of the inclined groove 23 and the inner cavity of the first guide groove 24, improving convenience.
[0029] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown: A connecting plate 31 is connected to the side of the fixing plate 26, and an elastic joint 34 is connected to the side of the snap-fit plate 33. The side of the elastic joint 34 is connected to the side of the protective shell 25. By setting the connecting plate 31, support can be provided for the protrusion 32. By cooperating with the protrusion 32 and the snap-fit plate 33, the position of the protective shell 25 can be fixed, and the protective shell 25 can be easily replaced and cleaned. By setting the first guide groove 24, the movement trajectory of the snap-fit plate 33 can be limited.
[0030] Working principle:
[0031] like Figure 1-4 As shown:
[0032] In use: First, place the protective shell 25 on the side of the fixing plate 26, then manually move the snap-fit plate 33. At this time, the elastic joint 34 deforms, which can cause the snap-fit plate 33 to move to the middle of the protrusion 32, thereby realizing the installation and fixation of the protective shell 25. After installation, hold the handle 1 to smooth the grout applied to the tile gaps. While smoothing, the side of the base plate 21 pushes the excess material forward. When the excess material accumulates to a certain height, the top of the excess material contacts the bottom of the second guide groove 27. Through the cooperation of the second guide groove 27, the inclined groove 23 and the first guide groove 24, This allows excess material to enter the inner cavity of the protective shell 25 while smoothing, thus achieving the effect of collecting excess material and effectively improving work efficiency. After collection, the snap-fit plate 33 is pulled towards the side closer to the connecting plate 31, thereby causing the snap-fit plate 33 to disengage from the protrusion 32, and the protective shell 25 can be removed to rinse the excess material in the inner cavity. Similarly, the cover plate 22 is manually pushed outward, thereby causing the spring piece 28 to drive the snap-fit block 29 out of the inner cavity of the snap-fit groove 210, thereby cleaning the inner cavities of the inclined groove 23 and the first guide groove 24, facilitating secondary use.
[0033] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any other way. Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the technical solution of the present utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
